Bedenkmen to Seek Win
Over Dickinson Baseballers
Baseball coach Jae Bedenk has nominated Ken Yount for start
ing hurler as the Lion nine attempts to hit a winning stride against
Dickinson at New Beaver field, 2 p.m. tomorrow.
AA Book coupon 27 will be used as admission to the game,
Harold R. Gilbert, assistant Graduate Manager of Athletics, stated
Yount pitched a six-hit game in I
losing to VMI Monday 6-2 in the
season's opener. The righthander
was a regular starter for last year's
once-beaten team.
Dickinson will field a veteran
bolstered team against the Lions
on their first romp over the home
grounds. Probable pitcher for the
visitors will be Al Rohr, a pre
war standout hurler.
Bedenk indicated last night that
he would probably make a few
changes in his starting lineup
Harold Hackman will start at
shortstop in place of Pete Berletic
with Don Stark, Bob Urion and
Ken Hosterman or Bill Davis in
the outfield.
CAPTAIN SUTHERLAND
Captain Gene Sutherland will
be at third base with last year's
captain, Chuck MacFarland, at
•first. Ray "Whitey" 'Kurowski at
second base will complete the
starting infield. -
Ed Sebastianelli, - Ben,yish,
Torn Folan 'and Berletic prob.,
ably see duty as •pinch-thitters or
utility as the 'coach strives to find
a winning combination.
Ed Holler, who caught the two
rOad-trip games,' will probably
start behind the plate with Don
Herb and George McWilliams in
reserve. •
Don Stark, new left fielder, is
currently 'leading the Lions at the
plate with four hits, including a
double and triple, in• nine times
at bat. Davis, Holler, Urion, Mac- •

In the Fall, he joined the foot-.
ball team, developed into an out
standing runner, led Pennsylvania
collegians in touchdowns scored,
and at season's end was- named
to many all-star teams.
- While his Afootball ability at
tracted consideralble attention, he
at no time indicated that he fav
ored the grid game over baseball.
Last Spring, he experienced
trouble in finding his hitting eye,
but was still a constant threat at
the plate, and in May accepted a
a $17,000 bonus to sign a contract
with the Brooklyn Dodgers.
Late last summer, in the heat
of the pennant race, he reftised to
step down to the minors because
his contract had insured him maj

Spring he gave the same answer
to a suggestion that -he report to
