Braves' Speedy Bruton Is Fastest in Majors NEW YORK BiU ton, the fastest man in the major leagues. This lithe Negro of 23 is the new centerfielder of the newest team In the majors the Milwaukee! Braves. He bats left handed, throws right handed, stands sixj feet and never ran on his, high school track team.

He wasn't fast enough. "I didn't have any speed when I was in Parker High in Birmingham, Ala." says Bruton, the only fielder ever to make the majors without leaving the city in which he last played. "We had some; guys who could fly. I was a broad jumper. Reached 22 or 23 feet back in 1945." Everyone Impressed Everyone who sees him is impressed with his speed in the out-; field and on the bases.

Had he ever run a race-for time? winter when I played for Santurce in the Puerto Rican League I ran 100 meters in 11.4," says Bruton. "They put on an exhibition at Denver in January before the All game between the American and Puerto Rican, All-Stars. I won it easy, Carlos Bemier (outfielder on trial with Pittsburgh finished second and Luis Marquez (up with the Braves twice) was third. Two or three others were in the race but Bemier, who stole 65 bases at Hollywood last year and 51 at Tampa in 1951, and Marquez were BILL BRUTOJT Making Swift Debut Braves seHled down today! re.uiar on the ball club, h.H^^ ousiness men when confer-j season's opener Sunday afternoon. their $5 000 000 stadium for an exclusive of pitchers and catchers, However, the Panthers have played the only extenders.

I got $100. "It was my first winter in Puerto, Rico and I hope it was my last. If I make the majors (he's very motlest) I can't go back: It's against the rules. I stole only 18 bases there and hit Only I don't know what happened." Bruton is making his bow with 8n outstanding minor league record that began in 1950 with Eau Claire in the C3ass .0. Northern League where he hit and stole 66 bases.

He was the league's top tookie. In 1951 he stole 19 bases and hit Wisconsin Crew Meets Syracuse By JACK BURKE MADISON (ff) Determined to start their season with a victory, Wisconsin's oarsmen vnll race Syracuse here ovfer a mile course Saturday. Whethei' the race vnll-be held on Lake Mendota or Lake Monona will depend oa weather and water conditions. Last Saturday Syracuse finished back of Ctemell and ahead of Bos-j ton College and Dartmouth in a quadrangular race oh Lake Cayuga, N. Y.

Syracuse also finished second in a -junior varsity race. Uncertain of Starters Coach Norm Swiju said he wasn't certain of his starters. His boating Had Capt. Vic Steuck at stroke with other seats takefi over by James Lorenzen, Maurice Johnson, James Moran, Carl Merow, Jerry Fink, Virgil Trummer James Healy. Don Rose is the cox' omores, the others holdovers.

The Badgers average 6-2 and just under 192 pounds, one of Sonju's biggest crews in years. Wisconsin's JV boat, scheduled to meet 'the Syracuse reserves Satur-j day in a preliminary race, averages a half inch taller and a couple of pounds lighter. Rain and cold combined to slow up drills this season and Sonju was able to get in only two timie trials. One race was won by the reserves, and that brought some shifitng of personnel. In a two -mile session Wednesday, the varsity won easily, tumihg in a time of 10 minutes, 19 seconds.

Progress SIowl- Optimistic earlier about crew 's chances this year, Sonju BOW feels there Is plenty room for Improvement. He said: "The boys haven't come along as smoothly and as fast as I had hoped. "They may surprise me, as Ihey have a habit of doing. We'll probably have a good not the outstanding one I anticipated. The potential is there, with lots et power, and we are deeper than nsual.

"We should make It rough for an our opponents. Just how rough remains to be Syracuse oarsmen were scheduled to hold two workouts today. Five other U. W. teams are in action this week etid.

Didn't Get Jump "I was thrown out too many times last Bruton. "I was slow getting a jump on the pitchers." On the bases his quickness and speed resembles the fleet-footed Richie Ashbum of the Phillies.

Being a left-handed hatter helps him in his take off for first base. "I always lead off with my foot," says Bruton, now a Wilmington, resident. "I try to hit first base with my left foot. It helps you turn better and keeps you from making a big Bruton's big league debut was an eye-opener even for Milwaukee fans. He scor'ed tiie game's' first run and made two catcher that saved a 2-0 decision against the Janesville's extensive baseball program for boys, organized and directed by the recreation department, was termed one of the best of its kind in the United States by Duane Bowman of Madison, president of the Wisconsin State League.

He was the speaker at the annual Kiwanis Club Father-Son luncheon Thursday in the Monterey Hotel. Guests at the Father-Son meeting were 3fanager Robert Dant and the Janesville Cubs. Sons of Kiwanians sat with the players and each received a baseball autographed by the Cubs. As each player was introduced to the large gathering he gave his home city. Bowman stated that fans should not be harsh with Class players when they make mistakes.

He pointed out that they are at the bottom of organized baseball and what they do on the diamond, particularly afield, is done with snap judgment.

Daycn Cha.sed in Fourth James Dayen started on the mound for the Cubs Thursday and left it. the loser, when Wausau went on a rampage in the fourth inning. The Tigers scored seven runs in that stanza on four hits, three walks and two errors to take a 9-4 lead.

Emil (Ski) Stoyakovich, supposedly bothered by a lame arm, relieved Dayen in the fourth and pitched well the rest of the way. The major blow off Stoyakovich was a home run over the right field fence in the fifth by John Gilmore, Wausau's second pitcherj and the winner. Gilmore is a right handed batter and he got a lot of wood on the ball to bash it over the right field barrier. Wausau had two other extra base blows. Bill Conley tripled a run home in the game-winning foiirth.

and Chiis Andrews doubled in aj tally in the seventh. Gilmore was wild, walking 11 In six and two-thirds innings. He was tough for the Cub batters, however, and whiffed seven. Stoyakovich also fanned seven. Jackson Best Sticker Catcher Len' Jackson again was the sticking star for the Cubs.
