THURSDAY, MARCH 20, 1947 MIAMI HOPES REGULAR MOUNDMEN READY FOR COLLEGIANS, University Of Miami Sai- urday, Winter League Leaders Sunday Will Press Tourists To Limit The Miami Tourists were put through a stiff workout today with Manager Dave Coble par- ing his squad down to about 30 men. The two practice sessions have “been consolidated into one, starting at 10230 a.m. With the University of Miami coming here Saturday and the Blue Sox to be encountered Sun- day, Manager Coble is anxious to get his first-string batteries in shape for action. His starting pitchers, Dick Farkas, Gene El- liott, Mel Fisher O'Neil are still not quite ready but, by Saturday, if the warm weather continues, should. be in shape for duty. Coble was pleased with the showing of Rookie Charlie Row- land behind the’ bat Tuesday against the Red» Raiders and is counting on the youngster to af- ford the two first-string catchers merevtime to get in shape. Coble, himself, and big Bill Lewis are the regular receivers. The University of Miami, pro- ducer of strong football and bas- ketball teams, can be relied upon to be just as good in baseball and equipped to give the Tourists aj stubborn scrap, A college team likes nothing better than to set back a professional ball club, es- pecially when the latter club representing the home town of the college. In fact, a good- natured but keen rivalry is al- ready in the making between the University and the Tourists. Sat- urday’s game starts at 3:30 p. m. In facing the Blue Sox, Coble may also bring out one of his first-string pitchers. After the reception which the Raiders gave | the. Miami rookie twirlers, the Tourists are not likely to take chances of a similar assault again, for the Blue Sox have dominated the Raiders in the Winter League second half to hold first place. The Sunday doubleheader will start at 1 p.m. with the Raiders facing the Trojans. The Tourist- Sox nightcap will get under way at 3:15 pm. PCS-1386 LEAVES The PCS-1386, a ship attached sto the Fleet Sonar School, left Key West today:en route to St. Petersburg, where it will remain! about three weeks. and . Lefty} is the} Babe Dahlgren One Of Baltimore Stars Due Here For Miami Game Several big names will appear in the Baltimore Oriole lineup | when they appear here on Satur- day, March 29, in an exhibition game against the Miami Tourists at Municipal Staduim. The biggest attraction will be Babe Dahlgren, whoge, varied career has seen him perform with more major league clubs than any other player ever to hit the big show. Dahlgren has always: bgen considered one of the fanciest dans around the in- itial sack, and his appearance here is sure to meet with great enthusiasm from the local rabid fans. Dahlgren is the long ball hit- ter for the Baltimore eu and in spring training at Hollywood, Florida, he’ has already © been selected by Manager Tommy Thomas to hit in the fifth slot. The game is being sponsored by the Business and Professional Women’s Club of Key West, and the ‘history of Key West sports is expected to be on hand for the game. Addimional bleacher seats have been installed at the Stadium, and arrangements will be made to seat more than 1,500 when the improvements are completed. Stands for colored spectators have also been ar- ranged. Admission to the game will be $1.20 for adults, and 60c for children, abies tax. \FR. ANZ SCHU BERT MOVIE ENJOYED!
