According to Charley Lockard, KGlefer ims the right to his release at the end of the 1935 season, if he wants it, but club president also states that Killefer must re- main for two more years if he fails to exercise it Sener Steve Chuckaluck, the big Butte boy, was given his first chance to Pitch before the home boys Thurs @ay, when he went in as a relief pitcher in the second game of the double bill, and he made good. He's terrifleally fast, and he had such good hitters as Wally Hood and Oscar Grimes batting with one foot free. Steve had a little trouble with his control, and experienced the same diffi culty of all youngsters in trying to keep the base runners close to their bases, and the Angels ran a bit wild on him, Chuckaluck has the nerve i © that’s half the pattie. @ He was given a short trial tast | ) fall and then took the training camp trip this spring.
