Missouri Loses Talented Back As Drills Open
Columbia, Mo. — One of the bright bulbs in Missouri's 1954 football marquee blinked out this week as some 100 gridmen reported for spring drills.
Among the missing was Ray Detrine, the rangy sophomore fullback who would have figured in a switch to left halfback this spring. The big speedster left school last week, still eligible scholastically, but tired of the classroom routine.
As the mid-March workouts began, Coach Don Faurot could count 15 lettermen on hand, with six other veterans excused from the long session.
Fullback Bob Bauman, and halfbacks Jerry Schoonmaker and Bob Musgrave, are with the baseball squad, Linebacker Terry Roberts and halfback Guy Rose are recuperating from leg injuries—and center Norden Stefanieides needs his spring afternoons free to pursue a laboratory project in the veterinary school.
Aggreived by Detring's loss, Coach Faurot still looked ahead cheerfully this week to the '54 campaign—his 17th year here as boss of M. U. football.
"Except at tackle, we're deep enough in veterans to field a good team next fall, if we don't lose any more key players." Faurot said. "Of 11 seniors who finished up six were starters last year—and we must bring along their replacements this spring."
Most acute problem, Faurot thought, was in the backfield where Bob Schoonmaker and "Skipmorriff"—both hard-hitting half-balls—must be replaced. Also gone and such regulars as John Willson, left end; Julian Boyd and Charley Phillips who shared starting time at left tackle; Ted Follin, right guard; and Lloyd Brown, center.
At quarterback, the Tigers shouldn't lack seasoned leadership. Here, veterans are stacked up three deep with Vic Eaton Tony Scardino, and Jack Brase—the 1953 playcalls—again available. All will be seniors. Right now, the 195- pound Eaton is the No. 1 entry.
Fullback is staffed solidly, too with Bauman—the club's top ball-carrier and blocker—due back. Behind the Bengals' all-conference back, is Harold Thomeczek, who worked from the No. 3 fullback post last year and lettered as a defensive halfback in 1952.
Competition for both halfback jobs should be brisk, although the younger Schoonmaker, Musgrave, and Rose all will make their presence fell next fall. In the meantime, sophomores-to-be Jim Hunter and Sonny Stringer and Tom Morrell—a junior next fall—will get top bill-
Best prospects in the rookie crop are Everett Lineberry, a compact fast-hitting guard; Chuck Mehrer, thick-set tackle; and Jim Hunter who quarterbacked the freshman squad last year.
At right half, Jack Fox—the senior left-hander who understudied Morriffield—can tighten his grasp on the first-string job this spring. Three other lefties — Musgrave, Gerey Burson, and Bill Curley—appear to be the chief challengers.
Lettermen available for the 1954 campaign are listed below, with those players excused from spring ball in parentheses.
Vice president Fresco Thompson claimed the "best pitching staff in the National league" for the Brooklyn Dodgers today and predicted that aces Carl Erskine and Don Newcombe "will win eight to 10 more games this year than Robin Roberts and Curt Simmons."
"Erskine and Newcombe figure to be the best 1-2 pitching punch in the league," Thompson said. "I won't predict they'll total 40, 45, or 50 wins but it's a cinch they'll win eight or 10 more than Roberts and Simmons will total for the Philadelphia Phillies."
Baseball Roundup
On that basis, Thompson is figuring that Erskine and Newcombe will win at least 45 games and possibly 50 this year. He indicated he won't be surprised if they total 50 victories—more than any National league combination since Bucky Walters and Paul Derringer won 52 games for the Cincinnati Reds in 1939.
Roberts and Simmons, generally regarded as the best 1-2 pitching combination in the circuit, totalled 39 victories for the Philies last season. They also combined for 37 when the Philies won the pennant in 1950 and for 42 in 1952.
Dodger Veep Says Bums Have NL's Top Hurlers
By UNITED PRESS
Erskein, who capped a 20-victory season in 1953 by setting a World Series record of 14 strikeouts in one game, became the first major leaguer to go nine innings this spring when he limited the Philadelphia Athletics to five hits in yesterday's 10-2 triumph.
In 19 innings this spring, the 27-year-old change-up artist has allowed only three runs and 14 hits. Newcombe, a 20-game winner in 1951 who is returning after two years in the Army, held the New York Yankees hitless for six innings last Friday night and has allowed only three runs and four hits in 10 innings of Grapefruit league pitching. In addition, the 230-pound fireballer has collected 10 strikeout victims.
"When you add Billy Loes, Clem Labine, Russ Meyer, Bob Milliden, Johnny Podres, and Preacher Roe to Newcombe and Erskine, you've got the best pitching staff in the league. Thompson is weave. We've had plenty pitcher doubles during the last few years but we won't have 'em this year."
Manager Eddie Stanky of the St. Louis Cardinals also was enthusiastic over fine pitching by Vic Raschi, the $80,000 purchase from the Yankees. Raschi, in his longest stint of the spring, pitched six shutout innings yesterday as the
Cardinals edged out the Milwaukee Braves, 6-5.
Mickey Vernon drove in the winning run with a single to give Washington's Bob Porterfield a 3-2 verdict over Philadelphia's Roberts in a contest between the leading winners in both leagues. Porterfield, a 22-game winner for the Senators, allowed two runs in seven innings while Roberts gave three in six. Simmons shut out the Senators with one hit during the last three innings.
In other games, rookie Tom Brewer stretched his scoreless string to 17 innings as the Boston Red Sox beat the Cincinnati Red-legs, 2-0, and the Cincinnati B team beat Kansas City, 6-0, with Art Fowler and Herman Wehmeier combining for a five-hitter.
The New York Giants hammered Warren Hacker for five runs in four innings to beat the Chicago Cubs, 5-0, behind steady pitching by Larry Janssen and Johnny Anzaldua. The Hacker, hard hit, of the NL, then he had a 12-19 record last season, has yielded 19 runs in 12 innings this spring.
Palm Beach, Fla. —(U.P.)— Stocky Ted Kroll of New Hartford, N.Y., who fired a sizzling seven-under-par 65 in the opening round carried a three stroke lead today over Jim Ferrier and Lew Worsham in the second and final round of the $10,000 Seminole Pro-Amateur Golf tournament.
Ferrier of San Francisco went out in 33 but hit for 35 on the back nine, while Worsham of Oakmont, Pa, had identical rounds of 34 each for his 68 total. All alone in third place was Earl Stewart Jr., of Dallas, who toured the course, laid out among oceanside sand dunes, in 36-33, while Ben Hogan of Palm Beach, Calif., and Jack Burke of Kiaamesha, N.Y., were deadlocked for fourth with 70's.
Kroll Leads In Seminole
Hogan got off slowly with an even-par-36 on the front nine, but came home in 34. Bantam Ben said four of his putts rimmed the cup instead of dropping in.
Kroll teamed up with amateur R. A. Raes, Morgantown, W.Va., steel company executive, to lead in the best-ball competition with a 61. He then was coupled with amateur Walter Shirley of New York and wound up in a four-way tie for second money with a best-ball 63.

Once there was a Sophomore who was planning a Whale of a Weekend in New York. He being a Man of Foresight, he carefully cared his copy of "New York Confidential," his compilation of Terrific Manhattan Numbers, and his list of Solvent Alumni in the Big City. Likewise 1 clean shirt, 1 toothbrush, 1 razor and 1 package of Sen-Sen. He was Ready.
Our Hero guffawed, "Don't be dull," he answered, "I'll make up my mind where I want to stay when I get there. New York is Full of Hotels."
Just then his roommate came up with a Tip for the Traveler. "Hey," he said, "have you wired ahead for your Hotel Reservation?"
He was right. New York is full of hotels. On this particular weekend,
however, it was also full of People. Political convention.
Oh, he's all right again now. Two nights on a bench in Central Park never killed anybody. The thing that bothered him most was the Squirrels. He thought they were looking at him Oddly.
If you're Going Somewhere and want a Roof Over Your Head, it's smart to make reservations by Telegram. (Western Union even has a special Hotel Reservation Service you can call to Make the Arrangements for anything from a One-Night Stand to a Transcontinental Trip.) No fuss, no friction, no sleeping on a pool-table. Use Telegrams in any plans you are making . . . Dates, Deals or Dream Talk. You get Results when your words arrive on the Yellow Blank.
