A high-scoring quintet from five Pennsylvania colleges was named today to the 1946 Associated Press All-Pennsylvania basketball team.

There were no repeaters from last year as players from Geneva, Temple, Lafayette, Muhlenberg and Penn State were selected on the basis of a poll of coaches and spbrls writers.

Pitcher Max Butcher was re leased outright, and Pitcher Art Cuccurullo and Outfielder Tom my OBrien were optioned to the Hollywood club of the Pacific Coast League under a 24-hour recall today as Pirate officials announced the first cut In the big Pittsburgh squad. In making the announcement, Bill Benswanger, Ray Kennedy and Frankie Frlsch declared that more players would be farmed out In the near future to Hollywood, Birmingham of the Southern Association, Albany of the Eastern League and York of the Interstate League. The top officials of the club also gave out the names of 15 rookies and veterans who deft nltely will not be retained. They are Russ Bauers, Don Kerr, Hank Cornicki, Johnny Copple, Lee Howard, Stan McElmurray, Oadis Swigart and Jimmy Walsh, pitch ers; Eddie St. Claire, catcher; Pete Castlglione and Huck Geary, inflelders, and Jack May hew and Culley Rikard, outfielders.

BREAK CAMP TOMORROW The 15 players named will re main here after the Pirates break camp tomorrow, the Idea being to keep them working out until they can be absorbed un der options by the four farm clubs mentioned. They will drill under the direction of Babe Her man. Transportation problems will be aided by keeping these player at San Bernardino until the other clubs are ready to re ceive them. This means that 38 players, ex clusive of Frlsch and his aides, will begin the long tour that starts tomorrow. Subdivided, the squad will consist of 17 pitchers, five catchers, nine infielders and seven outfielders.

The sensational Ralph KIner and clever Ben Guintini are ticketed for the East, Boss Frisch having decided that both these ball hawks have made the club. Among the nine Infielders who have clicked with Frisch are Bil ly Cox, Vic Barnhart and Alf Anderson. Eddie Lelp and Frankie Zak also are listed with the returning squad. FIVE CATCHERS STAY All five catchers will start back, and four of them probably will be retained, Inasmuch as the Bucs can carry 30 players throughout the season. Included among the 17 pitchers who have convinced Frisch they should stay with the first squad for the present are Eddie Albos-ta, Edson Bahr, Jim Hopper and Al Tate, all rookies.

The passing of Butcher was re gretted by the players. He was regarded a fine teamworker who always tried to help other players. Butcher refused to accept a big cut in pay, and Boss Frisch, who says Max was too heavy to help the team, asked for waivers. MAX FREE AGENT Max Js a 10-year man and could not be sent to the minors under baseball law. Butcher landed with the Dodgers in 1936 via Galveston of the Texas League, where he won 24 games in 1935.

He pitched six full seasons for the Pirates after being purchased from the Phillies in 1939 in a deal involving Gus Suhr. Butcher is now at liberty to sell himself to any club in the two major leagues and he doubtless will not have any trouble makine a deal for himself. The game between the Pirates and Hollywood here, today was called off on account of rain. BUTCHER NOT SURPRISED HUNTINGTON, W. March 21.

(AP.) Max Butcher said today he wasn't surprised to hear he had been unconditionally released by the Pittsburgh mates alter failing to come to salary terms. "But I'm going to stay in base ball," asserted the big right-handed pitcher who won ten and lost eight games last year. Butcher said the Pirates of fered $8000, which was "considerably less than. I. asked," He said he hadn't received offers from other clubs and didn't expect any until his status with Pittsburgh was cleared up.

By JACK HENRY Pitt's football squad, now in Its second day of a six-week spring practice grind, numbers 105 can didates in uniform with 30 more prospects on deck waiting for equipment to arrive. Wesley Fesler, the newly-appointed head coach, held his inaugural meeting with his players yesterday and gave them quite an inkling of what he expects to accomplish in the spring session.

He outlined current problems, set up training rules, held a black board drill and finally gave the signal for all hands to begin the workouts on the old practice grounds above the Stadium. Assisting Fesler were Mike Milligan, freshman mentor here in the Jock Sutherland era, and Charley (Doc) Hartwig, hold over from the Clark Shaughnessy regime. Another assistant, Lyal Clark, is due to arrive from Harvard a week from Friday. Art Saey, a 220-pound sergeant from the Third Army, took over as director of calisthenics. He put the boys through their paces in such a satisfactory manner that Fesler, smiling on the sidelines, suddenly roared with approval: "Okay.

You're in. The job is yours for the rest of spring training." Saey played fullback for Beau mont High School in St. Louis, won all-state honors and was ticketed for Notre Dame when Uncle Sam beckoned. He spent three years in the service as a pnysicat instructor, wnne sta tioned in Miami, Fla he met Gloria Kiedaisch of West View and married her five months ago, which accounts for his presence in this territory. Fesler split the unwieldy squad into workable groups to run through plays and a halfback who immediately attracted atten tion was Carl Mosso of East Orange, N.

J. He was on the scene here when Clark Shaughnessy first arrived in '43, but was quickly snapped up by the Army. Also on hand yesterday was Jack Banbury, former Penn State back, Pitt has regained the services of Dr. Ralph Shanor as tpam physician. The doctor, who first held this post in 1929, left here in 1942 to loin the Navy.

Jimmy Dimitroff of Bulger, has been assigned the duties of senior manager of the squad. His chief assistant will be Velt Castrodale of Cecil. NO IETTER LAO! AT MY men MrvaesM Me) MMUMral MM tunc Mia rwr- mm7 1 i No. Nam 1 Hasiirn 4 Tbomeno Ulrkriia II O'Maherly HII XV. HUaoa Mel ro.

For the first time this season the Hornets, who have had their best record since entering the league eight years ago, decided to play strictly defensive hockey against the Bears in the first playoff game, a style to which they are not accustomed and at which they were not at all successful.

Hershey also played a waiting game and took advantage of two scoring "breaks'! in the second period and the Hor nets were beaten. Karhinsky will make two changes in the lineup that started on Tuesday. Jimmy Thomson and Ernie Dickens will be the defense men, replacing Howard Mackie and Pete Backor. Coach Don Penniston of the Bears today said he will depend on tne same lineup that started at Hershey. Henry will be in goal, Lauzon and Brennan on defense and Buller, Frost and Mario at the forwards.

Maurice Podoloff, president of the American Hockey League, will attend tonight's game to present Pete Backor an award for being named on the league'- AU-Star team.

I routta, f- This was Jake's first visit to Pittsburgh in something like two years. He makes his home in Binghamton, N. and has a son and a daughter. The daughter is married. He's Seen All Over (he Baseball Crcuit Since leaving the Pirates, Jake has been virtually a globe-trotter up and down the winding trails of baseball.

For seven years he was listed as an "outlaw" because he jumped organized baseball to cast his lot with the Oil City team back in the fabulous days of the Oil City-Franklin rivalry, when many of other big league players jumped with him. He managed and played second base for the Oilers. He finally remained out of baseball for one year and paid a fine to be reinstated in organized baseball. The log of his travels almost requires a road map to follow. He came up from the Southern Association in 1917, after hitting .340 in 40 games, a mark of which he is proud, for he never again was a top hitter, and he was the regular second-sacker of the Pirates until they obtained George Cut-shaw from Brooklyn in 1918.

The Pirates sent him to Jersey City and he remained there only three days before he decided to accept the Oil City offer. He started his professional career with the Jackson (Mich.) club as a shortstop. Thereafter he always played second. The most he ever weighed was 152 pounds, and he says it's no wonder he didn't hit against the flingers they had around in those days, including such fellows as Ferdie Schupp, Grover Alexander, Hippo Vaughan and Phil Douglas. Grimes, later a big winner for many years, was with the Pirates in 1917, and guess what? He lost 17 straight games.

In all, Jake played 21 seasons before he decided to devote all of his time to managing and, scouting and developing talent. One of his scouting pickups for the Dodgers was Hal Gregg, the pitcher, whom he discovered on the Coast. "Branch Rickey has been swell to me," he said. "And so has Branch, Jr. You read and hear a lot about them being hard to get along with, but I have found them, to be well people." Once Owned (he JeannetU Club From Oil City, Pitler went to Hornell, N.

and from there to Caspar, Mahanoy City, Racine, Elmira, Hazleton, Springfield, 0., in the Mid-Atlantic League, Scranton in the New York-Pennsylvania League, Portsmouth, 0., in the Mid-Atlantic, Wilkes-Barre in the New York-Pennsylvania, Jeannette in the Penn State Association, then to a job as director of baseball schools for the Atlantic Refining Company, then to Olean, N. in the Dodgers' chain, then to Newport News, for two years and now he's heading for Danville. He started out to become a clubowner in 1937, when he managed and controlled the Jeannette club, but it was an ill-fated venture and he had to give up along with McKeesport after six weeks. A promised investment failed to come through, and, although the club was in second place, the turnstiles failed to click. There were no lights for night baseball, and the largest attendance was 85 paid and the smallest about 37.

Jake plans to remain in baseball as long as he lives. It's his life. He is held in high regard by the men in the game and once was voted the best manager in the minor leagues. "It's funny about Johnny and me," he said. "He used to be my brother.

Now that he's managing Billy Conn, I'm his brother." "Yes," chipped in Johnny, "and he drives me nuts filling orders for tickets for Billy's fights. I'm going to have another headache from him on this one coming up." Johnny Ray's Debu( As a Boxer "Did you ever hear how Johnny became a fighter?" Jake laughed. "The Owls Club used to be located in Fifth Avenue a few doors from the Farmer's Bank Building, in an upstairs hall, and they held fights for their members who would pitch coins into the ring after the bouts. Johnny and I had a newstand at Sixth St. and Penn in those days.

One night I drifted in to see the fights at the Owls and who should pop into the ring but which was Johnny's nickname in those days. And who do you think he's in there to fight? Young Eppy, a rough, tough guy with a lot of experience. I was afraid he would get hurt, but he did all right. They were fighting only three two-minute rounds, and that little bum had such a good defense that it's a wonder he was hit at all." "He didn't have to worry about me," chuckled Johnny with his customary nonchance. "I'd been hanging around the gyms and watching the guys work out and I knew how to take care of myself.

I'd gone broke in a crap game and I knew I could get a few bucks in a hurry by fighting." Even Brother Dave Has a S(ory TO a a 88 Schools ToSponsor Baseball By DAN GIBBENY, JR.
