Local 222--Burke (Tran, Harman) 12--Pollock By PAUL RIMSTEAD Canadian Press Staff Writer It railroad conductors are still looking for the tall, skinny kid who used to throw rocks at their trains as they passed through Chatham, Ont., they' might try Florida. His name is Ferguson Jen- kins and he's still causing trou- ble by throwing things. However, he's graduated from the stone-throwing age. Now he tosses baseballs and the people who don't like it are the batters trying to impress Philadelphia Phillies at their training camp. Canadian basebali players are usually well known at home, But Jenkins, who could turn out to be the best of the lot, is better known in Florida than he is in his native country. The six-foot-five 205 - pounder is one of the Phillies' best pros-| pects. One Philadelphia writer says Jenkins, 19, has the best chance of cracking the Phillies' pitch- ing roster this season. Tf this should happen, the Jenkins story would rival that of any of the meteoric rises in the past. Last year Fergie pitohed for Chatham in a sandiot league and was picked up by the Phil- lies mid-way. through the sum- mer, SCOUTED BY TEACHER One of his teachers at Chat- ham Vocational School, former minor league player| named Gene Dziadura, tipped Philadelphia off about the tall Negro kid with the fastball. The Phils shipped him to Miami Marlins in the Class D Florida State League and Jen- kins, who had a 2-1 pitching record at home, was 7-2 there with the. incredible earned-run- average of 0.96. He started eight games, finished five, struck out 69 batters and walked only 19. The Philadelphia bosses, ob- viously impressed, moved Fer- gie to Buffalo Bisons in the Triple A International Leaguc at the end of last season. In 13 innings with the Bisons, Fergie fanned six men, walked five and had a 1-1 won - lost record. The Phils took him to his first spring training camp this year and Jenkins, working in an intra-squad. game, allowed two scratch singles in six in- nings. Last week he allowed only one hit in three innings against h Detroit Tigers. "Ingkins looks real good," Philadelphia manager Gene Mauch says, "I don't think there's any question that he will some day be a big league pitcher." NEEDS SEASONING Reports say Jenkins, despite his lack of experience, com- pares favorably in form and Chatham Youngster Could Be Phillies Newest Mound Ace delivery with his big rivals, However, making the Phils this year isn't likely, The clubs have to cut rosters and the Phils, with 20 pitchers in camp, 11 with major league experi- ence, have to cut to 10, The odds haven't worried Fergie. "He (Mauch) hasn't told any- body yet," he said. "But from what some of the other officials tell me, it looks pretty good." "We want him," said Mauch. "But it's not always a favor to a boy to keep him on a major league roster, Sométimes it does him more harm than good. "Our decision will be what- ever we feel is best for him. "If we do send him out, it will be to a team where he can win. You have to go out and get confidence to become a big league pitcher." People around Chatham feel Fergie is a good pitcher--but a better hitter. At Chatham last season, he had 12 hits in 31 times at bat, including two ome runs, for a .362 average. He also plays outfield and first base. If those conductors are still mad at him, it might be some consolation to know they played a part in developing a pro ball player--one who might become Canada's best. The tracks run past the Jen- kins home and Fergie credits pinging those box-cars for help- ing strengthen his arm. league NEW YORK (AP)--Human ingenuity, which has split the atom, put man in orbit and planted Telstar in the heav- ens, now has come up with the ultimate in scientific achievement--a release valve for the agitated golfer. No longer, after watching an 18-inch putt glide past the cup, is it necessary for you to suppress those emotions. Go ahead. Blow your stack. The secret is the expend- able putter, In a maniacal rage, you can smash it to splinters. Then, with a flick of tue wrist, you can restore the club to good health and com tinue about your business. This dream gadget of the short-tempered golfer is not @ gimmick. It is the design of established golf engineers and the project of one of the country's leading sporting goods manufacturers, parent company of the firm that makes Ben Hogan's clubs. CRASH IT -- SMASH IT PUTTER FOR THE IRATE SOLD QUICKLY "We have put out several hufidred and they have been gobbled up like pancakes," said the designing engineer, Ben Holderness of New York. "We intend to put them on the mass market." The unique implement is called the temper tamer. It consists of a heavy brass blade, a leather grip and three shafts. The shafts can be screwed interchangeably into the blade and grip. One of the shafts is made of strong laminated wood. It is labelled "permanent." It would be hard to crack with a sledgehammer, The other two are of fragile maple, firm enough for putting purposes but weak enough to snap like match sticks under duress. They are clearly marked "breakable." It's the latter two which take the punishment for a flubbed putt. 2. Local 1 3.

The IAAF list included sev- eral marks made prior to last season, but most were for 1962, with 15 going to U.S. athletes and 10 to Russians--half by So- viet women, Snell's mile record was made at Wanganui, New Zealand, Jan. 27, 1962. His 800-metre rec- ord of 4:44.3 on Feb, 3, 1962, at Christchurch, N..Z, also was ratified, along with his 880-yard mark of 1:45.1 in the same race, Frank Budd's 100-yard mark of 9.3 seconds at Villanova, May 6, 1961, was recognized, but it is superseded by Jerome's clocking at Vancouver, Aug. 25, oe and again Sept. 3 at Tor- onto.

Weeks of idleness because of ice and snow have left racing form in doubt, But the girls, placing their modest bets al! over Britain, have decided that Peck is the man to follow, Owen's Sedge, sécond favor- ite at 14-1, will be ridden by cone of the most experienced steeplechase jockeys in Britain and Ireland--Pat Taffe.
