While constantly engaged in this battle with pro scouts over promising prep school material, the continual activities of these talent 'hunt6rs beating the bushes of the hinterlands does not always hurt the college coach. Lundo points out that often some of the major league scouts have been good, about giving him iniformation on players that the college coach hasn't had an opportunity to see. He says that this co-operation is:especially apparent when the scouts know that the boys have al- ready decided to go to college and won't sign with the pros in the near future. Only once, says Lund, has he been given a deliberate "bum steer" by a major league scout (whom he left charitably anonymous). ON OCCASION even, scouts will recommend a player to college if he has some degree of potential, but not enough for the pros at the present time. In this way the colleges can act as a farm team or tryout setup for the professionals-lettinig them get a better view of the player without having to invest either time or money in him. While football and basketball players are generally recruited after college, baseball is unique in that quite often high school is the ter- minal point in a player's education as he jumps directly into the pros. Lund points to the "growing up process' that college play provides that isn't available when the 18-year-old inks a professional contract. "Most 'boys don't realize how dog-eat-dog professional ball is. In college a boy can have a bad week-go home to mother-get a good ,meal-go back to play again. In the pros, you have a bad week in the spring and you can-be released." In signing from college, Lund feels that the economic position of the inidividual involved plays a big part in his decision. The com- bination of "big money" and poor circumstances can make the big difference. Although a former pro himself, Lund notes that more big leaguers are making $10,000 a year than are in the big brackets. "What's $10,000 today?" asks Lund. "And even that is just for the "Big Leaguer' ON "CARRY-OVER" value of other sports: Lund, although strictly a baseball coach, is not one to restric his players to a single sport. In marked contrast to such one-sport disciplinarians as Mrs. Jean Hoxie,. the Hamtramck tennis coach who demands that her pupils stay out of other sports, Lund encourges such play. He notes that a football player who is called on to kick a field goal in the .dying minutes of the game before 80,000 people gets valu- able experience in pressure play that carries over to baseball season when he faces a 3-2 pitch with the bases loaded in the ninth inning. While he admits that participting in earnest in a sport such as swimming could develop the wrong muscles, he points out that play- ing football, basketball, tennis, baseball, etc. all develop commonly- needed muscles, such as those in the legs. Lund feels that there is definite carry-over value ini pressure sit- cations, competitive play and physical development. * * S O N HIGH SCHOOL coaching: One. of the most interesting comments on the baseball scene that Lund makes concerns high school coaching.. Hie flatly says that in all too many instances prep athletes get good football and basketball coaching, but poor-quality baseball coaching. Lund says the blame for this, rests with no-one, coaches or school administrators, but is a result of economics. To put it bluntly: football and basketball bring money in-base- ball just spends it. For this reason, high school coaches (whose jobs depend more on football than anything else, as a rule) are willing to go tp clinics and learn new techniques in football and basketball, but can't even be approached for purposes of baseball training. THE hitting vs. feilding confroversy: When you see college base- ball games often decided by multi-run margins, you seldom think of college ball as a defensive game. But LUnd's viewpoint is that he would rather have good fielders than hitters (of course the best bet is to have both). The former major league outfielder says, "You don't see .400 hit- ters any more, but you still do have guys who field 1.000. Hitting fluctuates, while fielding is constant. "More games are won or lost on defensive lapses than by batting." Anyone need an after-dinner speaker? Whether or not he wins the Big Ten championship that his team is now hot on the trail of, he'll always be able to top the banquet and bicarbonate circuit. Joey Jay pitched a one-hit shut- out, allowing only two men to reach base, as the Cincinnati Reds beat Philadelphia 4-0 last night in the National League. Detroit retained a first-place tie with New York for the Ameri- can League lead as Don Mossi shut out the Washington Senators on two singles 6-0. The Yankees defeated Minneso- ta 5-2 in an afternoon game with buddies Whitey Ford and Mickey Mantle once again doing the Job as New York made it seven vic- tories in the last eight games. Los Angeles led Baltimore 3-1 after 3%/ innings. Giants Lead San Francisco padded its Na- tional League lead to a full game over idle Pittsburgh by whipping the Chicago Cubs 9-3. Milwaukee beat the Los Angeles Dodgers 10-6 on Joe Adcock's grand slam hom- er in the 10th inning in the only other game scheduled. Jay, who had lost his first three decisions for the Reds, gave up a one-out single to Johnny Callison in the first inning. Ruben Amaro drew the lone walk allowed by the young right-hander, who struck out seven. Gordie Coleman drove in three of the Reds' runs off loser Art Mahaffey as the Reds scored twice in the first and added two more in the third. Mossi Superb Mossi had a no-hitter until Gene Green singled with two out in the seventh. The only other hit off the left-handed veteran, who won his third in a row, was a two- out single in the ninth by Willie Tasby. The Tigers collected 10 hits off loser Benny Daniels (0-3) and two relievers. Norm Cash was 3- for-4. Billy Bruton, who drove in two runs, and Al Kaline each had a triple. Mantle, leading the majors in homers and runs batted in, slam- med his ninth homer and a single and drove in two runs for a sea- son total of 24 that helped left- hander Ford gain his fourth straight victory after a season- opening loss to the Twins. Ford Hampered Ford, hampered by a cold, beg- ged off after allowing two runs and five hits in six innings and reliever Jim Coates put down Minnesota on one hit in the last three innings. The Yanks had all they needed after scoring three runs off loser Jim Kaat in the first inning, one scoring on a sin- gle by Mantle that extended his hitting streak through 16 games. The Twins now have lost six of their last seven games. Sam Jones, in winning his third in four decisions, settled down after allowing the Cubs three first inning runs-and permitted only two hits in the last eight innings. Trade LOS ANGELES (P)-The Los Angeles Dodgers yesterday trad- ed infielder Charlie Smith and outfielder Don Demeter to Phil- adelphia for relief pitcher Dick Farrell and infielder Joe Kop- pe. Koppe will report to the Dodgers' Spokane, Wash., farm club in the Pacific Coast League. Demeter is 25, Smith 23 and Farrell 27. Orlando Cepeda hammered in three runs while Willie Mays and Jim Davenport each had three hits for the Giants, who put it away with a five-run burst against los- er Glen Hobbie in the sixth in- e ning. Cepeda and Ed Bailey each drove in two runs in the big frame. Adcock Connects Adcock connected for the eighth bases-loaded homer of his career to cap a five-run 10th for the Braves in a 3 hour, 44 minute marathon with Los Angeles. The Braves scored two runs for a 4-4 tie in the eighth, each team scored a run in the ninth, and Gil Hodges-hitting his 354th career homer-gave the Dodgers a 6-5 lead in the tenth before Adcock and co. broke through against re- liever Jim Golden. Ed ,Mathews singled in the run that made it 6-6 before Adcock banged his No. 2 home run into the right field bleachers. FESTIVAL ARTISTS and PATRONS to Visit Us at I.
