"Team spirit has been our biggest asset so far savs Calvin. ''But we'll need it.

Our schedule calls for Shelbyville, Areola, Tuscola and Villa Grove in the first five games." Calvin is in his second year at Sullivan.

1957 record 5 wins, 3 losses. Opening ruec helbyviJle there, Sept. early this year before thev decided to join with the Detroit Tigers. Officials were discussing what financial assistance could be obtained from a certain major league organization. The answer was not quite satisfying to the Decatur group.

Thev asked if a little extra could be provided. The club replied it couldn't do that. then a short time later handed over more than S80.000 to a high school star with a reputation as a hitter. As of now, the player is a flop. As a matter of fact, there was a good example of the folly of high bonuses right on the Decatur club.

Bill Weller. the voung lefthander, was a bonus player. The Sporting News reported he had received at least $25,000 for signing with the Tigers. Anyone who watched Weller pitch this past season probablv wonder's what it was that caused supposedly smart baseball men to hand him $25,000 or some such bonus. In future years Weller may make his critics eat their words, but of what he showed this summer, the Tigers are out some 525,000.

It is hoped the major league executives meeting in Chicago will do something about this ridiculous situation. Baseball executives gathered in Chicago for the major league meetings could do than devote considerable of their time to repairing the present bonus rule. Never has so much money been given awav with, what appears to be such foolishness as -under the present bonus Since it became possible for the majors to send players to the minors immediately." no matter how fat the bonus check, major league clubs have been throwing around money as though it would be declared illegal the next day. All this has been most frustrating to club officials in minor league cities who have been lighting a losing battle to lceep baseball alive. Consider how ludicrous this situation is: A major league club pavs a beardless youth a bonus because he happened to pitch two or three no-hit games in high school and appears to have a good future.

This major league club finds it can't help one of its minor league farms, with which it had only a "working agreement," to clear up a debt of less than $5,000. Yet this type of thing is fairly common these days throughout the baseball setup. Decatur Baseball officials had a related experience a. ruf S. Pos.

He won't be eligible for varsity competition for a year Coach Bud. Wilkinson and Cerro Gordo Returns Only 3 Lettermen Cerro Gordo, Sept. 8 (Special) They're a bit worried about filling the stands at Cerro Gordo home football games this year.

With 48 boys iri grid togs at this pigskin-crazv school, one might wonder who will be left to fill in as fans. Coach Gene' Frantz, just out of the army, has no worries about quantity. However, quality may be a different storv. Only three lettermen from last year's losing team are back. One of the three battle-tested veterans end Gary Morr will not play against Lakeview in the opener.

He may be out two more weeks with a severe, ankle sprain. That leaves Frantz with two experienced hands quarterback Jerry Aldridge and tackle Charley Gaitros. Aldridge is a converted halfback who will probably do a lot of Tunning from the split-T. He's a southpaw passer and figures to be doubly dangerous on the option play. "We'll be taking a lot of said Frantz.

The Redskins have six regulars and seven other letterwinners rev turning from last season's team that finished with a 5-3 record, losing to Areola 33-20 for the Okaw Valley Conference title. "If our halfbacks come through e'll be a good little' team," says Head Coach Bob Calvin. "We may have problems, with some of the bigger teams, but we should be in every game.

Calvin may have to give some pounds in the line to other Okaw foes. His starting forward wall will average about 160 pounds. He thinks he has a fine quarter back, in 153-pound senior Fioger Beavers, who lettered at end-the last two vears. "He is the best punter, extra point kicker and passer we have," savs Calvin. "He could be the best quarterback in the confer ence.

Calvin also has a fine all-round performer in Jerry Doss, a 166- pound fullback and linebacker. Doss excclls in blocking and tackling. Last year he pulled down 80 opposing runners in seven games to lead the team in that de partment. Halfback Problem One of Calvin's problems will te to find a steady halfback combination. Letterwinners Joe Flor- ini and Jan Munch, along with Ros Landers and Jack Malloy, are top candidates.

Freshman speedster Jack Kite may get a chance to show his wares in varsity competi tion. "'Calvin's starting line probablv will be made up entirely of letter-winners.

St. Louis, Sept. 8 (AP). Fred Hutchinson is on shaky ground as manager of the St Louis Cardinals and his job may depend on how the club fares in the final month of the season. This is the consensus of opinion of Executive Vice President Dick Meyer, Club President August A.

Busch Jr. and Ceneral Manager Bing "We simplv Lave not made up our minds," Meyer said. The Ficd Birds, a strong second place team last season, are now in fifth place with little chance of finishing higher than "Our policy is not to rehire or to discharge managuis before the end of the season," said Mevcr, Busch's right-hand man. "We will stick with it." Meyer indicated the decision would be announced shortly after the season ends, and before the Cardinals start their exhibition trip to Japan. Fans have criticized Hutch for leaving his pitchers in the game too long and for keeping clutch- hitting Joe Cunningham on the bench too much.

His patience with' pitchers has resulted in the most booing of the big ex-pitcher, although many baseball men praised this as a virtue af ter the Cardinals surprise second- place finish last year. But Jersey Joe, a favorite because of his all-out effort, has become an increasingly larger issue. Ciin ningham now has a lifetime major league batting average of .308 for 326 games. This is fifth best among all active National League plavers and manv reel Cunningham should start every day. St.

Louis sports writers general ly have been kind to Hutchinson, although critical of him for not giv ing aging star Stan Musial enough rest. Sentimental Favorite General Manager Devine has defended his field manager rcpeatcd- In fact, there1 lirrU rlrmrir that Hutch is the sentimental fa vorite of the f.ont office. But il'c. also true that Busch is. sensitive to fan criticism.

"To hold Hlltl'h rrcnnncirilf fnr rne failure ot hitters like (Waiiv) Moon and (Dc!) Ennis would be unfair, Mevcr said. Moon and F.nnis llflrl rnmrnrwfl totals of 48 homes runs and 175 runs batted in last season. Now they hare 10 homers and 83 rbi'f for the year, plaving part time. The Pied Birds had the leaotic' best team battinp- averaoe sea son, and ranked third in runs iov they are last in runs and homers, and sixth in team bat tin? Many fans, though Hutch for not plaving Moon and Ennis despite their fielding deficiencies. "I can tell you this," Mover said.

"All of us Busch. Bine and 1" respect Mutch as a man and as a handler of men. Meyer indicated some changes almost certainly would be made in the Cardinal coaching staff, and ir a new manager is named, he likelv will come from the Red Bird organization.

Amateur golf tackle, and will share linebacking championship todav at San Fran-duties with sophomore brother Cisco's Olvmpic Club, declaring: Senators Veto Possible Shift Of Franchise Chicago, Sept. 8 (AP) Calvin Griffith, with an ax ov er his head, decided after all not to seek American League approval to move his baseball club out of Washington. Instead, the Senators will remain in- the- nation's capital at least through the 1959 season. Griffith made a statement on 'eve of a scheduled American League meeting purportedly to listen to and act" upon his expected request for permission to move the Senators to Minneapolis. Until late vesterdav the son of the late Clark Griffith had fully intended to go through with his plan to seek the -sanction of his ftllow club owners to quit ington, flc had what he considered a generous offer from the Minnesota city, which recently approved a nine-million-dollar bond issue in its.

bid to attract a big league baseball team. But less than an hour after his arrival here, Griffith became aware of the solid opposition lined up against him. At least four cjubs were prepared to oppose him. That is two more than the votes necessary to block any franchise shift attempt. Although Griffith refused to admit he hpd seen the handwriting on the wall, it is known that New York, Boston, Kansas City and Cleveland were almost certain to vote against him.

The beleaguered Griffith left the door open for a possible shift attempt in the future, however. A-ked whether he intended to renew hisefforts. to move; before Oct. 31, deadline, he said: "I doubt it." Then he added: "But no one can say they'll stay in one place the rest of his life. We've got problems in Washington.

They must be Tesolved. I'm going to present them to the league meeting tomorrow. BATTING LEADERS American League AB PCT. Runnels, Boilon 49i 159. .323 Ocrv, Kansas Cit- 450 143' .318 Power, Cleveland 527 167 .317 Kuenn, Detroit 489 155 .317 'Williams, Boston 355 112 .315 Goodman.
