"It's too early yet to tell where we are weakest, but we can use a lot more hustle," Russ Sehon, baseball coach, said-Saturday after he had watched his second-string Blues surprise the Regulars with a 17 to 10 victory in a loosely-played contest. The Reds whipped the substitutes 8 to 1 in a five-inning warmup.
Sehon Sees Lack Of 'Hustle' In Weekend Tuneup Games
Sehon was favorably impressed with the twirling of Guy Mabry, starter for the Blues, but the strong winds kept him from learning much more about the players.
Kelly Clubs Triple
The right-handed Mabry, Jayhawker winger ace during 1947, handcuffed Reds with two hits during his four-inning performance. He fanned one and walked none.
The Reds took a lead in the opening frame when second-baseman Scott Kelly blasted a triple into left-center field and came home on a fielder's choice. Cliff Wade knotted the count in the second with a homer along the left-field foul line.
After shoving across three tallies in the third and two more in the fourth, the Blues put the game on ice in the fifth with a nine-run barrage. The Reds pushed in four runs in the sixth and three in the final seventh.
Cliff Wade paced the winning attack with a home run and a pair of singles in four trips to the plate. John Fencyk, Red catcher, collected two singles in three times at bat.
Two Hurriers Shine
Brown & Bigelow, the nation's largest calendar manufacturers, produced 120 million calendars for 1947
Three singles combined with a pass and a double steal gave the Reds a 3 to 0 advantage in the initial frame. They garnered four more runs in the fourth on two doubles and a trio of one-base blows. A base hit, a stolen base, and an infield yielded another marker in the fifth. The lone Blue run came in the second when John Campbell walked and scored on K. Meade's double to left. Summaries of the two games:
The Reds banged out 10 safeties off hurriers Lee Ethridge and Darell Norris in a five-inning win Friday. Dick Fletcher and Johnny Dewell limited the losers to three.

Men—You Can't Trust 'Em
Walham, Mass.—(UP)—Being in his mother's arms is no guarantee that a boy will stay out of trouble. A four-year-old boy being held by his mother reached over her shoulder and turned in a false fire alarm while she was talking to a friend.
If hard work and plenty of bruising scrimmage builds good football teams, the 1948 edition of the Kansas Jayhawkers is going to be hard to stop.
Grid Drills Get Rough
Coach Sikes put his spring footballers through a long two-hour scrimmage Saturday afternoon in which over 100 players took part. The spirit was high and the blocks were hard despite the fact that the team had only four days of conditioning before the scrimmage.
The first major super-highway in the nation to be completed since the war is the newly-opened 47-mile toll road between Kittery and Portland—a 20 million dollar project.
The players were divided into groups according to positions for exercising and an hour long drill on fundamentals, which included pass catching, ball handling, blocking, and tackling.
Offense Is Stressed
When the "head busting" contest began offense held the spotlight throughout the workout. Stressing down-field blocking Coach Sikes worked three alternating offensive teams. Three defensive teams fought to halt the attack, which included both running and passing plays.
Tom Scott, Bill Hogan, George Geer, and Don Wilson handled the quarterbacking during the workout. Bud French was the leading ground gainer for the afternoon as he sped across the goal line time after time on sweeping end runs and quick opening plays. Forrest Griffith and Frank Pattie also showed some of the ball-titting ability that made them feared runners last season.
Help From Veterans
Because of the large number of men out for spring drills, the coaching staff has called upon four of last year's regulars who have completed their eligibility to assist them in the practices. Hoyt Baker is working with the backfield. Steve Renko and Joe Crawford are working with the linemen, and Otto Schwellbacker is helping the ends with their pass catching and blocking.
