| | i | i Hank Greenberg With Baseball Factory Turnout Of 12 DAYTONA BEACH (® — Hank Jones, Bob Chakales and Bill Ab-| Greenberg is well satisfied with the production of the Cleveland Indians’ baseball ‘factory’ here. “This is only the fourth spring since we opened Indianville,” the Cleveland general manager re- marked, “and 12 players who have been developed in these camps are on the Cleveland ¢lub’s American League roster.” Only Pitcher Leroy Wheat and Outfielder Stu Lockin of the 12 received a bonus for signing, Greenberg said. But Cleveland’s investment in bonuses for signing the boys now in the mass training camp for Indian farm teams is $450,000. Six Indianville graduates on the Cleveland roster and working out under Manager Al Lopez at Tuc- son, Ariz., are Outfielders Harry Simpson, Jim Fridley and Eula: Hutson and Pitchers Sad Sam Satisfied Players ernathis. The other six, all in the armed forces, are Wheat, Lockin, Out- fielder Jim Lemon, Pitcher Al Aber, Catcher Hal Maragon and Second Baseman Doug Hansen. “It.is hard to appraise the value of the 12 players I named because they still have to make good,” Greenberg said, “but I say they are worth half a million dollars or more.” Greenbefg is impressed particu- larly by Lemon, who is expected back in baseball in 1953. Lemon slammed 39 homers and drove in 119 runs for Oklahoma City in 1950. “I think Jim Lemon is not only going to become a big leaguer but I believe he is going to be a great star,’ Greenberg declared. ‘You only have to develop one ylayer like that to make Indian- ville pay off.” White Sox Bonsidentll Geel | Chance For League Pennant TUCSON, Ariz. (® — For 41 stirring and somewhat suprising days, the Chicago White Sox held the lead in the pennant race in the American League last year. | The Sox may not hold the lead so Jong this season, but there are these with the club who profess _ to believe they'll hold it when it counts—meantng the final day. Much of the optimism is based on the point that Paul Richards is the manager, tactician and brains of the outfit. He worked a small miracle in setting the Sox ablaze and into a final station in the first division in his freshman year as a majer league manager. With what most critics think is a stronger club, Richards in his sec- ond go-round might just up and do that much better. The principal strengthening ef- forts were aimed at third base this winter. The club has come up with a star from the Intenrational League, Hector Rodriguez, to fill the jgap. Rodriguez is a 3l-year- GAINESVILLE — ®—Two high school ends, Earl Jefferson, Live Oak, and Ronald Davis, Hastings, have been awarded grant-in-aid scholarships to the University of Florida beginning next September. GAINESVILLE — (#—Florida scored baseball and golf victories Tuesday. Dick Brown and Jack Hazen al- lowed Georgia only five hits in pitching Florida to a 2-1 baseball victory in 11 innings. Jim Hirsch hit to left to drive in Joe Davis with the winning run. Don Knight led the Florida golf team to a 24-3 victory over Geor- gia Tech. Knight had 69, two under par, for low medal. Pete Harri- son was low for Tech with 70. A scheduled Presbyterian-Flor- ida tennis match was rained out. TALLAHASSEE (®— Georgia's golfers won their fifth match in six starts, 22% to 4%, over Flor- ida State Tuesday. Lester Kelly and Troy Smith each shot 69, three under par, for Georgia. Griffin Moody, Southeastern Con- ference champion from Georgia, and Sonny Tinney, Florida inter- | collegiate champion from FSU, tied with 74 each in the feature match. MIAMI (®—Quarter-finals in the men’s singles were on the program today in the Miami Invitational Tennis Tournament with only one upset registered so far. Capt. Don Kaiser of the Univer- sity of Miami defeated George Ball, El Paso, Tex., 6-3, 4-6, 6-4, Tuesday to reach the quarter-fi- nals. Ball was seeded eighth. Other favorites advanced, with Tony Vincent, Miami, facing the toughest fight. He defeated Frank Keister of the University of Mi- ami, 3-6, 6-4, 12-10. "Dick Savitt, Orange, N.

He fielded well, hit .302 and stele 26 Lases for Montreal, as well as drtving in 95 runs. Richards’ catching .is improved with the acquisition of Sherman Lollar from the Browns to share the job with Phil Masi. The pitching should be adequate. Saul Rogovin, Bill Pierce, Ken Holcombe, Chuck Stobbs—these names stand out. The infield, aside from third, is excellent. Eddie Robinson at first, Nellie Féx at second and Chico Carrasquel at short are fixtures. The big gun of the outfield is |Saturnino Orestes Arricta Armas Minoso, or Minnie, for short. The American League “rookie of the year’’ powered the ball for .326, second high in the league, last Season. Jim Busby and Ray Coleman have been regarded as Minoso’s regular mates in the outfield, but the returns may net be all in from Al Zarilla or Eddie Stewart. | annual big racing thrill, the Ken- tucky Derby, will be flashed by television cameras to receiving sets across the country for the first time in history May 3.

The Giants edged the Cubs, 7-6, Tuesday. The ‘flu which previously at- |tacked Coaches Roy Johnson and Spud Davis, among others, went after Bill Serena Tuesday. He was ordered to bed. Veteran Pitcher Duteh Leonard also was being bothered. SAN BERNARDINO, Calif. (n— The Pittsburgh Pirates will start the long eastward trip today after meeting the St. Louis Browns in an exhibition. Whether the Bucs will train in California next year is problematical. Plagued by poor weather, the Buc front office has indicated it may shift to Florida if facilities are available at DeLand. WEST PALM BEACH —Billy Hiteheock, who's been around the American League a good many years, says he’s finally learned his lesson about batting. Now a Philadelphia Athletics’ “re-discovery"’, Hitchcock has been for a lusty .476 average. The per- formance has evidently earned the veteran the third base berth. The lesson? “I've finally learned \it’s easier to get a base hit by just meeting the ball instead of trying to belt each pitch out of jthe park,” says Hitchcock. ST.

Associated Press Sports Writer Preacher Roe is off to a bad start, but the ace lefthander of the Brooklyn Dodgers isn’t wor- ried. Roe, who posted an amazing 22-3 record last year, has been hit hard in each of his three outings this spring. The lean veteran was tagged for 11 hits in six innings Tuesday as BRADENTON (®—General Man-|the Dodgers defeated the Phila- ager John Quinn said today ‘There } delphia Athletics, 9-5, at Mia Roe said after the game: “I'm getting the ball over the plate, but I'm not getting it where I want it.” | Previously, Roe was slugged in a game against the Dodgers’ Mo- bile farmhands and by the World Champion New York Yankees. Roe yielded all of Philadelphia’s runs including a 2-run homer by Eddie Joost. He left with a 6-5 lead. Young Billy Loes protected the margin. Dodger Nemesis Bobby Thomsen slammed a home run in the eighth inning to give the New York Giants a 7-6 triumph over the Chicago Cubs at Phoenix, Ariz. Home runs also featured the Cleveland Indians’ 7-5 victory over the Chicago White Sex at Tucson, Ariz. Larry Doby clouted a 3-run homer and Al Rosen and Jim Fridley followed with home run blasts in the sixth to wipe out a 2-0 deficit. Harry Simpson clinched the decision with a 2-run triple in the seventh. The St. Louis Browns defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates, 6-2, at Bur- bank, Calif., scoring all of their runs and hits in the second inning against Rookie Southpaw Royce Lint.

Kansas got to the throne room doorway the easy way in the semi- finals of the NCAA playoffs Tues- day night, as big Clyde Lovellette paced a 74-55 victory over Santa | Clara.

In the title classic it will be the clever passing game of St. John’s against the power that comes from {having a tower of strength like 6-foot 9-inch Lovellette in the slot. The big Kansas center sccred 33 points against the Santa Clara Broncos. He stood out as a play- maker and backboard bulwark as well as a scorer. His 108 points for the 3-game NCA playoff set | a new record. The old mark, in four games, was 83, set by Don Sunderlage of Illinois last year. Kansas won a 52-51 victory over St. John’s when they met last year in Madison Square Garden. But these St. John’s: hoop ma- gicians have thrown the book cut the window. The experts didn’t even think they would get to the national tourney. They did it the hard way, in the regional tourney, by beating Kentucky, No. 1 team in the Associated Press national poll. Illinois, the Redmen’s victim Tuesday night, was the No. 2 rated team in the same poll. Their semi-final victories quali- fied toth St. John’s and Kansas for the U. S. Olympic Games trials. : MUNSAN, Korea (® — Truce negotiators displayed “much more frankness”’ today in seeknig a com- promise on exchanging prisoners— one of the three key issues block- ing a Korean armistice—an Allied spokesman reported. “Some slight progress’’ was made behind the screen of a news blackout, Brig. Gen. William P. Nuckols said, “but they have not gotten down to. brass tacks.” Simultaneously hé disclosed a change in the U. N, Command strategy on the key to the dead- lock. The Allies have rephrased their demand from ‘‘voluntary re- patriation’”’ of pfisoners to “no forced repatriation.” “There is no fundamental dif- ference in the two concepts,” Nuckols said, but the new term might “be more palatable to the enemy. No° forced repatriation means the U. N. Command does not endorse and will not employ foree to compel a man to go over to the other side if he does not choose to go.” Simultaneously, Nuckols said, U. N. negotiators have been telling the Communists repeatedly “there is every indication that. the great majority of their captured person- nel ncw in our hands desire to return,” The Communists have been in- sisting they want all prisoners re~- turned and have objected to Allied proposals for interviews to de- termine the prisoners’ wishes. The U. N. Command took the new tack on the problem more than 10 days ago, Nuckols said. But he disclosed it to newsmen for the first time today. Apparently this new policy did not enter directly into Wednesday's off-the-recorc talks. Nuckols said Wednesday’s discussicas were ‘on a broad scale largely couched in general terms” and dealt primari- ly with the Reds’ latest proposals. His disclosure came after a sec- ond group of staff officers cleared the decks for tackling the sole key issue remaining before it—whether Russia should help supervise the truce. : A U.N. Command communique ‘ said they cleaned up th. last of their minor problems by reaching “complete agreement on the ports of entry question.” The Allies then proposed the key issue be solved by dropping Russia and Norway, leaving four ‘neutral nations” to police the armistice. The Communists wouldn't consider it. The deadlock is so firmly es- tablished that Russia was not even | mentioned by name during the dis- cussion. The third deadlock in the way of | an armistice is Communist insist- ence they be allowed to repair air- fields. The airfield question is not now under discussion. SEOUL, Korea ®—U. S.

WASHINGTON (4 — The State Department had military support today in urging that this country wage an all-out war of ideas inst the Communists and a ister’ hate-Americans cam- sn. We can not do the job half- way,’’ Gen. J. Lawton Collins, Army chief of staff, told a House appropriations subcommittee. ‘‘We must go all out in the battle of ideas .Only thus can we hope to convince potential aggressors that another war cannot pay.” The committee released testi- lar State Department request for its overseas ‘campaign for truth” for the next fiscal year, starting July 1. That amount is double the 85 millign dollars Congress ap- proved last year. State Department witnesses ran into sharp questioning from com- mittee members critical of the size of the request. Rep. Clevenger (R.-Ohio) ac- cused the administration of carry- ing on a “scare campaign” based on the threat of Soviet aggression. Collins told the group this coun- try must “enter into the struggle for men’s minds with every re- source at our command. “We must make maximum use mony supporting a 170 millon dol- | Pe Must Wage All- | Out Hate War, Same As Russia Is Doing, Says General Collins lof every+means of communication we possess.

We must fempley a_ positive approach - in- | Stead of a negative defense.” Mose Harvey, chief of the State Department's Research Division for Russia and East Europe, testi- fied that America faces a new “sinister’’ twist in Soviet propa- | ganda. Whereas the Russians once “lim- jited themselves to arousing an- | tagonism against systems or ruling circles,” he said, they have since Jan. 21, 1950, taught the individual Russian to hate. the individual American, This is being bolstered, Harvey said, with atrocity charges dating in extent.” “The charges are skillfully de- tailed with dates, corroborative in- fermation, ete., and every means of presentation is used to get across the charges and drive them home,” he added. The current objective is to “isolate the United States, to force it out of Europe and Asia,’ Harvey | testified. He estimated the Soviet propaganda outlay at more than $1,400,000,000 a year, which he said did not include costs of Communist ‘Party operations abroad. Toward Russia Reds Sincerity By JOHN M. HIGHTOWER WASHINGTON (#—The Western powers gave evidence today of pushing ahead with plans to ce- ment as much of Germany as possible to the Western world re- gardless of Russia’s tactics. The toughened policy of the United States, Britain and France for dealing with German questions where Russia is concerned was spelled out in a note sent to Mos- cow Tuesday and made public by This 600-word declaration, re- sponding to a new Soviet proposal of March 10 to start work on a German peace treaty, did two things: lin that Western nations, in close co-operation with the anti-Commu- nist government of West Germany, are firmly committed Germany in whole or in part to a “purely defensive Eurcpean com- munity,” State Department officials who helped draft the note said this meant the European defense com- munity being formed to enable West Germany to put military forces into Gen. Dwight D. Eisen- hower’s Western defense army. 2. It challenged the Russians to prove the sincerity of their de- clared interest in unifying Ger- many by permitting a United Na- tions commission to go into the Soviet Zone and find out what rea despite low clouds and hazy weather. On the ground, a company-size Communist assault was thrown back on the western front in an hour skirmish. Three other probes on the western and central fronts in early morning darkness were turned back. Only small-scale patrol skirmish- es were reported on the eastern front. wounded 200 Red troops northeast of the Panmunjom truce site. Allies Show Sterner Policy 1.
