Majors Open Training
Amid 'Flu' And Holdouts
BY THE ASSOCIATEb PRES
"NEW YORK, March I—(gyp)—The "flu" bug and some 30
,persistent holdouts plagued Major teague baseball teams,
which officially opened Spring training today, in far-flung
warm weather' resorts stretching
from California to Florida,
Manager Billy . Southworth of
•the Boston Braves is the latest to
be-sent to bed by the mild_influ
enza', wave. Brooklyn's peppery
new pilot, Charley Dressen, was
ordered to a .hospital earlier this
week.
Southworth became ill at the
Brave's camp in Bradenton, Fla.,
and was ordered to his room for
24 hours• by the team's trainer,
Dr. Charles Lacks, Penicillin
treatment was ordered. -
ilraves Still Ailing
Thiee other Braves, Coach Jim
my Brown and catchers Walker
Cooper and Walt Linden, have
not fully recovered from ti}e ail
ment that struck them last week
end.
There were two late, signings
today, reducing to 31 the number
of players who had failed to come
to terms with their employers.
Jim Hearn, who came to the
Giants on waivers from the St
Louis Cardinals in June last tear,
finished with 'an 11-4 record and
the lowest earned , run average
in the national league with 2.49.
Marshall Signs
Willard Marshall, the Braves'
outfielder, signed a contract makll
ing Boston one , of four Major
League clubs without any hold
out problems. The others are both
Chicago clubs and Cincinnati's
Reds:
With the signing of Cleveland's
ace pitcher, Bob Lemon, and the,
New York Yankees' Yogi Berra
yesterday . most of the top money
players are now in the fold. Lem
, on signed for a reported $50,000,
making him prob'ably the highest
paid pitoher in baieball.
General Manager Hank Green
berrarmounced the Lemon sign
ing last_. night from the Indians'
- i
Tucson, Ariz., training base. Ber
ra signed for a reported $30,000
after being contacted by tele.,
phone at his home in St. Louis.
Swimmers Face
Tempe Saturday
Lion swimmers will welcome
Temple university to Glennland
pool tomorrow afternoon a s
eagerly as any long-sufferer
greets a revolution.
Such a turn-about should de
velop. For the Nittany mermen,
undergoing the oppression 'of
eight consecutive losses with nary
a win, meet in the Owls 'a foe
which has lost eleven against
only one victory.
• Consequently, Gutterson's lads
must be cast in the unfamiliar
favorite's role 'for the first time
this year.
Lions Rate Edge
By comparing ,the best
vidual performances of both tank
teams, the Lions rate a prohibi
tive choice to win. In every event
except the breaststroke and the
300-yard• medley, Penn State has
recorded far betteritimings.
For a common foe this season,
Pitt, drubbed both the Lions and
Owls handily. However, against
the Templers, Pittsburgh was
"saving" and swam many substi
tutes. Better indication of com
parative strength can be found
by matching with Delaware
which trimmed Temple, 64-11,
but barely edged State, 39-36.
Borowy, Kolbe:. May Star
Douhle winners tomorrow
could be State's sprint and dis
tance duo Cas Borowy and Gene
'Kolber. Borowy may get three to
his credit if he should swim with
the 400-yard relay.
Last season's encounter result
ed in a 45-30 Nittany triumph. It
was one of the three registered
last year( by the Lidns—a mark
which cannot be equaled since
Temple and Franklin & Marshall
are the only clubs remaining on
the dual meets schedule., ,
After the Lions swim - F&IVI at
home Wednesday, they wind up
the .season next Saturday in the
ECSA's.
