Holloman climaxed a season of winter ball last night by hurling Puerto Rico to the Caribbean championship at Havana. Working with only two days rest, he gave up six hits and knocked in a pair f runs in whipping Venezuela, 9-2. rday night he beat Cuba, 7-4. e 26 - year - old Georgian is king his way back to the big} ues after an unsuccessful trial | h the Chicago Cubs in 1950.
