J., Mar. 23.—} Up north here in\ the. train: | ing camp of the York} ‘Giants, among ‘the’ pines 6f New| Jersey, the natives are sure of three things: The ‘Ottmen are the dark horses ‘of ‘the Natignal League; | the players will be in a better | Condition than ever before toj| start @ championship season; and | Sid Gofdon, a Brooklyn-born} Giant, willbe the rookie of the | year. If you’re looking for an argu- ment, this is a good place to! avoid. The first thing you hear when you arrive, and the last thing you hear before you leave, | is “We're got the new world | ehampions training here.” Manager Mel Ott won't go but} on as big a limb as the natives, | but Mel is “mighty ‘pleased’ with thing. “They're ‘almost ‘twé eeks ahead of © éarly'’ Work: is,” says the Giants” boss. “All! MBNAIL PREVIEW OF GIANTS boys are surprised by ‘he ditions here and I'm sure at when we start playing for Peps, we'll be ready for any- ing in the form of weather or ing ball clubs.” | There is a lot ef life around! Giants’ camp this year and e of the liveliest is Brooklynite iordon. Sid is a certainty to be National League regular. Right | ow it is a question of third | or the outfield, ‘but the tives dre sure it will be third pase—and that Sid will be one bf the best ever to gra¢e the hot corner at the Polo Grounds. | Started In 1968 Sid has beeh pounding on the, big time door now for a couple | of years. Since he started play-7 ing professional baseball in 1938, he has had a better than .300 clouting average every year but one. His only baseball Habit seems .to be leading his league. Tt was back in January, 1938, when the Giants first heard about Sid. George Back, then a local scout, persuaded Gordon to visit the Giants’ offices. George had been determined to sign Sid ever since the day he banged cut two homers and bat- ted in seven runs with two wal- Jops in the Eastern Shore league. The Giants couldn’t offer a contract to Sid but they sold him the idea of paying his own ex- penses for a tryout at Milford,} Del. A week after Sid set foot | on the Milford field, Giant scouts | were breaking their necks to} sign him. Sid played every game that) year—112 of them—and he was} league batting king with 3923} He led the circuit in total hits, | total bases slamming out 25 homers, ,,,Pro~ moted to Clinton for 1939, Gor- don hit .327.and led the Three+ Eye loop,in triples with 24. Moving to Jersey \Gity, in 1940, he led his league for the third year, this time in starting double plays. Last year, swatting the pill for an even .300 and leading with 85 runs batted in, Sid was hauled in from Jersey City by Manager Ott for a September whirl at third base. Ott Is Optimistic Ott hasn’t decided where he’!!! play Sid this year, but whether | it is third or the outfield, Mek is sure he will come up with aj -300 or better average. The Giants’ manager is not guessing about his probable line- | up yet, but probably in the in-! field with Gordon will be Billy | Jurges at short, Nick Witek at second and Johinriy Mizé at first. Whether Mize will play first or not depends¥ on the “Army. , Johnny $has ecdate: with his draft! board fomorraw, but the Giants, and bafeball, s,bere think he will be ejected because of hemo- | philia Gnd a bad knee. But all that wen’t affect Mize’s batting eye, especially with the new ball, they hasten to point out. Roaming the outfield for Ott, | if you believe the onlookers here, | will be master Melvin himself, | DR. AARON #.

BULLS AND BEER FROM DEEP SEA (By Associated Press? LONDON, Mar. 22.—British sal- | Vage operators are reaping from |the ocean bed a rash harvest of supplies and war materials.

Bradford, the ex-Alabama foot- ball star, are expected to stick; around to make the others keep on their toes. Despite the loss of Hal Schu-/ matcher, the pitching staff looms} up as one of the strongest ‘to start a National League season’ for the Giants. King Carl Hub-; bell is still around to pace the boys, and he will be ably assist- ed by Cliff Melton, Van Lingle Mungo, Bill Lohrman, Ray Coombs, nephew of Jack, the’ Athletics’ ace of yesteryear, Hugh Harry Feldman, Ace Adams, Tom Sunkel, Bill Say- les and Salvatore Maglie, the International League edition of reliefer Adams, Right now, old timers Gus Mancuso and Ray Berres are sharing the catching duties with; Jersey Citian Hugh Poland, but | Ott has his eyes on another r ceiver, and if all goes well he'll | draw ‘his paycheck from the} Stoneman organization Shere lay. cut away from the fire-gutted training shp Caledonia the former | liner Majestic, now being broken up on the floor of the Firth of Forth.

The cartons had -rot-| ted and the soap had jellied into} ia gooey mass. Salvagers scooped it 6ut and sold it to British laun- pary eperators..for...more than its original price. Another ship, carrying half a million bottles of whisky, foun- dered on the West Highlands coast, providing local Scotsmen with a windfall, but there still were ample supplies for the sal- vagers to recover. From a semi-submerged ship, 20 living pedigreed bulls, valued at $260,000 and headed for America, were recovered by the salvagers. The animals were cradled in tarpaulins and hoisted from the hold gt low tide.
