Rosen, who won the Texas League batting championship last season, is understudy to the vet' eran Ken Keltner at third base, but Ruel thinks he might give Keltner plenty of competition.

San Bernardino, March 5, (JP) Catcher Roy Partee, obtained from the Boston Red Sox, came to terms with the St. Louis Browns yesterday. Six Brownies are still unsigned. Clearwater, March 5 The Philadelphia Fnulies came up with two training camp cas ualties yesterday when Koy Cullenbine and Curt Simmons were injured. Cullenbine, recently acquired from the Detroit Tigers, suffered a badlv twisted neck when his car collided with another auto mobile while driving to the ball park.

Simmons, promising rookie southpaw hurler, slipped on the wet turf and pulled a tendon in his left ankle. Ciudad Trujillo, March 5, (JP) Jackie Robinson, 15 pounds over his normal weight, arrived in camp yesterday and took part in the regular Brooklyn Dodgers drill. Robinson appeared to have re tained his batting eye, despite, the winter tours of nightly ban quets and benefits. In his first appearance at the plate since the World Series, he lined three pitches to deep left center. He spent the rest of his time scooping UP grounders at iirst base.

Manager Leo Durocher an nounced the Dodgers would play an intra squad game Saturday, The squad will be divided into the All Stars of Jake Pitler and Ray Blades. St. Petersburg, March (JP) Bill Bevens took his regular turn at pitching batting practice in the New York Yankee training camp yesterday despite a leg jury received in Monday's open ing workout. Bevens still can't run much, after straining a muscle in his right calf which he pulled in a basketball game during the win' ter months, but the injury had no apparent effect on his pitch ing. Lefty Joe Page, the Yankees' crack relief pitcher, was excused for the dav because of a head cold.

Los Angeles, March 5, (JP) Bill Nicholson, Chicago Cubs outfielder and for many years the team's cleanup hitter, will be tested in the No. 2 batting spot. Manager Charlie Grimm decided yesterday to make the switch for the sprmg exhibitions, and for the regular season if the change works. Most of last year Nichol son batted sixth with Phil Cavar retta in the No. 4 spot.

Pasadena, March 5, (JP) Catcher Aaron Robinson, ac quired by the Chicago White Sox from the New York Yankees, is battling to replace the veteran Mike Tresh as the No. 1 catcher with the Sox.

Philadelphia Athletics Bossman Connie Mack that he's still trim and fast afoot despite his 207 pounds.

Mack watched York skip around scooping up grounders and leaping for high ones during practice and then admitted "that fellow looks pretty good." Harrell to Replace McMillen as Director Bloomington, March 5, (JP). Indiana University trustees last night named Paul (Pooch) Har rell, head baseball coach, to succeed Alvin N.

Calvin (Hap) Frank certainly seems to be capable of being in two places at one time. He moves around the hall with great rapidity but with such ease that he is seldom noticed The average fight fan has little knowledge of the expense involved in the promotion of amateur bouts. We were surprised to see the stacks of envelopes (green inside) being passed out to the army of person nel necessary for the operation of the show Russell and Carl Fanus are brothers but one would not think so to see them mix leather in the exhibition contest last evening. Naturally, the con test resulted in a draw We have witnessed countless amateur and professional bouts and have seen sluggers stand toe to toe and dish it out but never before have we seen two pugilists exchange leather as did Jack Carson and Joe Stolone. The second round of the bout, which was won by Carson, was marked with action from beginning to end.

The action was so furious that the remaining seconds of the canto found both lads prac tically exhausted Referee Tony Prince sees to it that the boys give Ensminger. ELEVATOR FIGHTERS This is one of the up and down moments in the bout last night in the Zembo Mosque between Rodney Hamby, 171, Lancaster, and Jack Gibboney, 166, Lewistowri, during the eighth annual Harrisburg Telegraph amateur boxing contests. Hamby won a technical knockout in one minute and 58 seconds of the second round. Records Recalled For Wm.

Harold Board Studies Ring Changes Philadelphia, March 5, (JP).

Pennsylvania mapped plans yes' terday to prevent serious injuries to boxers in the ring. The State Athletic Commission said it is considering a rule that would prohibit a fighter from en gaging in a boxing match in Penn sylvama until at least 30 days after a bout in which he was knocked out or badly beater Even after 30 days, the Com mision said, the boxer could re turn to competition "only upon passing a rigid physical examina tion, including rays. Chairman Leon L. Rams said in a statement "the Commission is seeking to forestall any danger of future near fatal injuries suffered by contestants who are eager to return to ring competition to soon after having suffered their reverses." A knockdown rule also is sug gested: It provides that a boxer "be required to take a count of eight seconds, whether or not he arises before the count of eight has been reached." Rains said "the count" is for the benefit, of the fallen contestant. The knockdown is scored against him regardless of the length of the count." "Contestants, handicapped by temporarily diminished reflexes, oftimes get up by sheer instinct while mentally befuddled and phy sically unsteady," Rains said.

"They are not in the condition they would enjoy had they taken an eight count and gotten them selves organized and orientated." Rams said three rules, together with other proposals to eliminate serious injuries, would be taken up for possible final consideration April 7. Other rules suggested: 1. Physician in charge at a box ing contest will take detailed notes of all fighters undergoing an unusual amount of punishment. These notes are to become part of the boxer's file. 2.

A boxer must undergo any medical examination ordered by the Commission else he won be permitted to fight in Pennsylvania. 3. Failure of a boxer to undergo a check for a possible head injury within a week after he is ordered to do so by the Commission would be punishable by suspension from boxing Pennsylvania. The Commission also suspended the following boxers: Maxie Bell, Philadelphia; Char ley Daniels, Pittsburgh; Jimmie Fuller, Pittsburgh; George Slater, Philadelphia; Frank In ten, New York; Jimmy Randy, New York Bee Bee Wright, Harrisburg: Georgie Carty, Philadelphia; Shiek Forman, Pittsburgh. All were suspended indefinitely except Bell, who received six months, and In teri, 90 days.

About 60 per cent of the peo ple of Guatemala are pure blooded Indians. Sidelights on Amateur Bouts By Jack Conlin Senator Harvey Taylor and Frank Wilsbach came rather close to an accident near the close of the program. Taylor and Wilsbach stopped over to pick up their hats and coats just as 375 pounder Bill Falk passed them on his way to the ring. The flowing trunks of the Lancaster boxer barely touched Harve and Frank. Others in the Taylor group were: Walter Compton, William (Tuck) Gard ner, W.

B. Rice, John and Harvey Kobler, Harold and Jack Gross everything they have but at the same time he does not hesitate to halt a bout if he thinks one of the lads might be in trouble Four photographers kept a steady stream of flashlight bulbs popping The "flashes" seemed to hit the peak during the windup when 375 pounder Falk took on Eddie KneDD. It reminded us oi tne grand finale to a fireworks dis play Mike Sullivan and Elwood Liht were so tired near the close of their bout that Mike rested his weary head on Light's back as the latter bent over from exhaustion A few seconds more and they both would have eased to the canvas A large following turned out to see Joe Till take the decision from Horace Lusk, but they were not as much concerned about the outcomfc as were Villanova officials. They have awarded Till a scholarship and don't want anything to happen to him in the meantime Homer Boone, Reb ersburg, packs more power into a short jab than any amateur we have ever witnessed. It may have been a right cross that sent Archie Rucker, Steelton, to the resin but it was the left jab that did the damage Three minutes is a long time as any of last evening's contestants will tell you.

Harrisburg Telegraph, March 5, 1948 2 MVETS to Hold Tournament Here for Juvenile Cage Teams The Sportlight By Grantland Rlc The Lull Before the Triple Crown St Petersburg, March 5. So far as major money tests are concerned, there will be a lull in $100,000 racing events until the T.riple Crown the Derby, the Preakness and the Belmont The $100,000 Santa Anita Derby tomorrow closes out the early spring show in Cali fornia when it comes to the matter of locat ing the best of the three year Grantland Rica As far as one can tell you, tne Calumet headquarters have al ronn taken care of this assign ment. His name is unation, wno in anv other game except racing would have the Triple Crown at Ult? AAA A The Santa Anita nominee lor three year old honors will be known tomorrow nignt. ine name should be Salmagundi, Call Bell or Solidarity. Salmagundi is the Bill Helis runner, while Call Bell and Solidarity represent the iar West.

While Armed is taking a needed rest, the Jones Boys have little to worry about, rney nave uaiion and several other good three year olds, includmg Coaltown and Be witch. Thev have Fervent and Fault' less. In addition, according to Jimmy Jones, they have some promising two year olds who will soon be ready to start warming up Jimmy admits that Calumets infant crop is first class with its Derby and Triple Crown threats for 1949. Bill Helis is counting heavily on Salmagundi to bring back the Santa Anita Derby Cup, and it might be noted that the Helis horse has as good a chance as any entry in the field As the case stands today, laion may be the big handicap horse of the year. He may not overtake either Stymie or Armed, in the way of cash earned to date, but he can close up a big part of the gap when Messrs.

Ryan and Luro bring him East for a busy season. In the meanwhile, the next lew weeks will be used largely for the purpose of digging up a challenger for Citation, which isn't the easiest iob in the world, as far as the Derby, Preakness and Belmont are concerned. If Armed can't overtake Sty mie's piggy bank, maybe Citation can. All he needs is good health and a little more time. The same applies to Talon in the race for the first million dollar winner, Braddock and Dempsey Agree We ran across Jim Braddock the other day and it was only natural that comment should turn to the Louis Walcott party in June.

"It will be 11 years, almost to a day, since Louis took away my crown," Braddock said. "I mean when he meets Walcott in June It's longer ago than I thought it was. It's a long time for a fellow to wear that crown. Most of the time the crown wears you out." I asked Big Jim now up around 240 pounds in weight what he thought of Louis' method of getting ready for the June show, Braddock agreed with Dempsey, "I don't think much of it," Jim said. "Louis found out back in December that he had slipped far more than anyone believed.

He can never be anything like he used to be, but he at least had the chance to get part of his old form back by starting work at a much earlier date. Both Braddock and Dempsey were dead sure tnat Liouis was around 240 pounds, instead of the 220 or 225 named. "I weigh 240 pounds," Braddock said, "and I know Louis is heavier than I am." "I weigh 220," Dempsey told me, "and I'd say Louis was more than 20 pounds heavier. Look at his face and necK. Eleven years at the top is a long time to be up there," Brad dock said.

"Louis deserves a lot of credit for taking care of himself almost that long. I know there wasn't much to beat, but Joe took pretty good care of himself for nearly 10 years. "It's only in the last year tnai he has let himself go and ne can get to be a fat man pretty quick, if he already isn't one. I notice on one of the features of his English trip wasn't the fighters he was to box but those 300 steaks. You can do a lot oi sparring wnn steaks and not lose much weight "Walcott has a good break.

wish I could have met the Louis of today, 11 years ago. We had a pretty good scrap, as it was. For a while, anyway. And Louis then was lean, hard and fast with those fists. He was only 23 years old Quite a gap between 23 and 34, especially for a fellow who likes to eat and live well.

"Walcott may be no great fighter," Braddock said, "but he is pretty smart, crafty and he is game. He knows his business. And he' has been fighting while Louis has been loafing for the bigger part of six years. Louis was doing nothing at the time he needed the most work." ed, 24. 32.
