Courtney of Coushatta, hasn't gone soft and begun treating the Yankees with a sort of reverent respect, as so many other players after a season or two in the American League. A little over a year ago, when first heard the Brownies' rookie catcher refer to the champions as "them rich and tell in glowing terms what he intended to do to them at every opportunity, we put it down as a temporary peeve.
It shows how wrong a man can be when he tries. Sold Down River Clint plainly is a ball player of character. When he said he hated Yankees' insides for having sold him down the river when he after all, a better catcher was, than Yogi Berra, he meant exactly what he said. He outhit Yogi by 13 points last year. That the Yankees feel the same about their former teammate obvious.
The feud between the ornery, bespectacled fireplug and usually staid money counters the Bronx flamed steadily all last year, and it was no accident when Gil McDougald ploughed into squat catcher at the plate in Louis the other day. Hemstitches Rizzuto Neither was it by. chance that Courtney; in the next inning, did a of hemstitching on little Phil Rizzuto at second base and set off first full-blown team fight of season. The Yanks should have noted that Clint hadn't said a word after McDougald busted him up knocked the ball from his hand. Such silence in our man is ominous.
thing he said this spring was, "Who do you think's gonna it?" When we ventured that Yanks might be favorites again, Clint said with some emotion, "I guess you've got to pick the thus sos. but I'll tell you this much: they ain't gonna win it by beatin' Looking back, is interesting to recall that the only Yank he said anything good about Rizzuto, Our man is determined to prove himself the best catcher in the game if he has to whip the Yankees one by one--and don't think wouldn't undertake it. Though had let him go, Casey Stengel owned to a sneaking admiration the rookie last year. "He'll fight Case said. "He's been in a bunch of fights nobody even knew about.
Lost lot of them, too. He the champion yet, but he thinks he The manager's feeling toward Clint probably is not 50 tolerant since he counted the spike holes Rizzuto's shin.

THIS 'BIRD DOG', a member of the Chicago White Sox scouting system, was honored with a visit yesterday from Scout Hugh Alexander, who handles contacts in Oklahoma, Kansas, Arkansas, Northern Texas, and the Cornhusker state. ALEXANDER dropped in after receiving a letter regarding couple of young prospects in this area. One.
Rog Pollman of the Lone Elm team across the Kansas line, a going over Sunday when "Lone Elm plays at Liberty. Pollman does a bang-up job in holding down first for the Kansans and also has the ability to hit the ball. THE OTHER prospect is still in high school' and it is not certain just when Alexander will get to see him in action. Incidentally, besides the letter from this office regarding this particular athlete. Alexander also received a tip from none other than Hank Iba, Oklahoma's expert cage mentor.
ALLIE REYNOLDS was the first player picked up by Alexander when he started scouting. Alexander at one time played outfield in the American League until he lost his left hand in an accident while visiting with his parents. He also plans on contacting Bob Reynolds while in this area. IT IS POSSIBLE that both Poll- man and the other prospect may be picked up by Alexander and sent to Kansas to see action in the Ban Johnson League. This league has a large following and includes players up to 21-years of age.

Davey Starts Back By TKO Impressive Win Over Giuliani In Tenth Round By JOE FALLS DETROIT (P "I was scared. I could feel the pressure of all those people looking at me." Chuck Davey soaked his bruised left hand in a bucket of ice water. Thick slices of tape covered an ugly cut over his right eye.
His left eye was a purplish-red. But he probably didn't feel any pain. He had just started his comeback in impressive fashion, scoring a technical knockout over Sammy Giuliani in 31 seconds of the 10th final round of their nationally televised fight at The Only 6,038 fans saw Davey fight in the flesh Wednesday night. So by "everybody" he must have meant the millions of TV viewers who were looking in to see if Davey had learned anything from that battering he took from Kid Gavilan.

not like Gavilan's sharp Giuliani, a 20-year-old brawler, carried the fight to his 27-year-old opponent in the earlier rounds. Two roundhouse rights staggered Davey in the third round. Giuliani also opened up a cut over Davey's right eye in the third. But from the fourth round on. Davey pecked away at head, body, head, body.
Sammy became an easy target. He stood flatfooted and Davey danced in, out and around him, at times landing at will. Referee Clarence Rosen finally called a halt in the 10th. Giuliani had had enough, even though his handlers didn't think so. This was the start of Davey's fight-a-month campaign to get back into the welterweight title rean in Ft.
