and 1952 lie finished second in 1951 and fifth in 1952 and that was in the era when many regarded the Texas League as the best in the minors The past four seasons he was a coach at Milwaukee and Atlanta under Bobby Bragan So we have a manager who knows the ropes and is well liked by baseball men everywhere That is important WHITE one who has and major long Joyner (Jo Ing in the Te and he came

coast to a 28-0 football victory Saturday The Vols scored the first three times they got the ball Fullback Richard Pickens ran for one touchdown and quarterback Dewey Warren added two more in the first period Warren passed 14 yards to end Johnny Mills for a second quarter touchdown The victory gave Tennessee a 7-3 regular season record and left Vanderbilt at 1-9 There was much pregame speculation that Tandy Coach Jack Green might resign after four straight losing seasons Warren set the tone of the game on the first play with a completion to Mills He hit six of his first seven passes in engineering scoring drives of 55 56 and 24 yards Setting Tennessee passing and total offense records each time he fired a completion Warren hit 12 of 23 for 118 yards Mills also setting Vol reception marks caught 5 for 54 yards Vanderbilt able to run only six plays in the first quarter put together four drives into Tennessee territory but could not score Quarterback Gary Davis led the Vandy threats with passes but one toss to Chuck Ousley was dropped in the end zone and another which would have given the Commodores a first down Inside the Vol 10 was dropped by John Hammersmith On the game's first series Tennessee drove 65 yards in 11 plays with Warren completing a pass to Mills and Charley Fulton gaining on the ground Pickens sprinted nine yards up the middle for the touchdown The Vols then held Vandy on three downs and marched 56 yards in 13 plays Warren passed twice each to Mills and Walter Chadwick before keeping on a final six-yard swing around right end A Vandy fumble on the next kickoff set up Tennessee's third touchdown Warren passed 14 yards to Mills nine to Terry Dalton and then scored standing up from the one Quayle Sparks CUBS' GM WRITES OF 1967 INTENTIONS The second big factor is that the Cubs are anxious In fact bound by written word to make a big effort here next season Tommy Mercer Lamar Hunt and Dick Butler showed no haste in renewing the tie-up with the Cubs in view of last year's last place finish and it finally was a letter from John Holland the general manager of the Cubs which led the trio to the contract table One paragraph of the letter read: It thus would seem a curious psychological turn for the availability of talent was affected by so many things I would not attempt to go into them as it would only sound like an alibi However I can assure you they will not be reoccurring next year We owe you good people a debt one that we will do everything in our power to repay next year by providing a first-class club to fit the first-class surroundings it plays in" That is a generous statement from Holland who had his troubles from the majors to the bottom of the ladder last year CUBS' The second In fact bound 1 next season
