often happens, the experts guessed
wrong. Dave is leading both leagues
in games won And in pitching per
centage. 1 - ;
A new strikeout record has
been hung up—in amateur soft-
ball, though. Jim Chambers of
the Chicago Match Corp. of
America team fanned 40 batters
in 19 innings to defeat the
Springfield, Mo., Knights of Co
lumbus in the American Soft-
* ball Association tournament at
Cleveland.
All big league players will get a
minimum salary of $5,000 a year, ac
cording to an agreement reached by
the baseball policy committee. Oth
er concessions to players include
dropping of the “ten-day clause” in
contracts, $25 a week expense money
during spring training, sickness and
injury payments, and more favor
able treatment of traded men.
The Army team won’t romp over
•ill opposition this year like it has
•cen doing for the past two years.
'..*he trouble is. the mighty first team
can’t play ?dl the time, and replace
ments are just average players, not
supermen. Still with Army are Doc
THanchard, Glenn Davis, Arnold
Tucker, Hank Foldberg, Ug Fuson
knd Barney Poole. There are a few
others left of the great teams of
1944 and ’45, but not enough to take
cure of the reserve problem. On the
other hand, other colleges have been
welcoming back hundreds of for
mer stars, released from service.
Most of them are bigger, if not bet
ter, than ever.
