SPORTS ROUNDUP Eddie Joost Is Very Pleased But Makes No Big Promises By GAYLE TALBOT TAMPA (AP) -- Though highly pleased with the great pace his hiladelphia Athletics have been setting In their exhibition games, Eddie Joost is too smart to have any illusions about where they will go when the firing begins in earn- est next month. The Americans League's only freshman manager says he would rather be where he to build a team and his own career at the same time, than taking over a first division outfit where he would be expected to produce or "I hear everybody is picking us finish dead last, even below he said equably. at as far as I'm con- cerned. Now if we surprise them and finish sixth or seventh we will feel we have accomplished some- thing. "I know this much already, that we got what we wanted our trade with the Yankees. We got some young plavers who are show- ing me the kind of hustle I want to see. They're really fighting for regular jobs now that Ry w they have a chance, and I would say now that all four of them will be in my line-up on open day. I would hate to trade back." The deal brought the Athletics outfielders Vic Power and Bill Renna, first baseman Don Bollweg and catcher Al Robertson from the is, starting out | the Yaakee Ming 1 in Sxoan . for pitcher ary yrd an st base- man Ed Robinson. SOME EYEBROWS RAISED The world Shamplons drew some criticism at the e for having disposed of Power, a Puerto Rican Negro who hit .349 for their Kansas City farm last season and who showed promise of being the first member of his race to ak into 'Yankee line-up. "It was just that we could give them what they need now for what we need to build on," Joost says. "Nothing else was involved. I'm convinced from what I've already seen that Power is us a great player. He's out there hustling every minute, maybe just a little harder than anyone else on the field." Joost fears he has about wrap- his own shortstopping car- eer. He still is hampered by a knee injury which cut down to 51 games last season and is find- ing it difficult to get in playing shape while handling his new re- sponsibilities. The jury still is out on Bobby Shantz, tHe little lefthander who set a sensational 24-7 record two last year when he had the mis- eries in his throwing arm. Joost Is hopeful, but the hard truth is that very few pitchers ever have regained their former effectiveness after such an experience. Mercurys Win Over Indians OWEN SOUND (CP) -- Buck Forslund, 25-year-old, = 160-pound leftwinger, scored four goals Thursday night to lead Owen Bound Mercurys to an 8-4 victory over Stratford Indians. The victory gave the Mercurys a 1-0 lead in the best-of-seven Ontario Hockey Association Senior A finals. The Indians who have breezed through two rounds of playoffs this season over favored opponents, might have pulled another surprise Thursday night. Their biggest en-|q emy was penalties. A capacity crowd of 2,200 fans saw the Mer- guys swore five goals while the Ini s were short-handed. Stratford, who defeated the Mer- curys for the league championship in the 1951-52 series, took a 3-1 lead in the first period. Mercurys scored three goals while the In- dians were short-handed in the second for a 43 lead and took advantage of another penalty in the last stanza for another two goals. In addition thé Mercurys scored one goal while they were one man short themselves. 19 PENALTIES : Forslund. just back from an at- tack of influenza, scored the first four Owen Sound goals to give the Mercurys a lead they never re- linquished. Jerry Reid, Herb Car- negie, Doug Gillespie and Jaydee McArthur followed up with singles. Lou Bendo,r Mike Delich, George Aitken and Dinny Flanagan tallied for the Indians, The Indians were tagged with 10 of the 19 minor penalties handed out. Bill McComb served five of Owen Sound's nine. Aitken took four of Stratford's total. The 'Mercurys, league final for the fourth consecutive year, play the Indians in the sec- ond game at Stratford Saturday. BIG LITTLE MAN TORONTO (CP)--Charlie Snell- ing, 16-year-old Toronto student who figure-skates at least four hours a day the year round, could be a big man for Canada in the 1956 Olympics, his coach says. Charlie, who weighs only 130 pounds, won the Canadian senior men's champlossiip in Calgary last week-end. His coach, Marcus Nikkanen who was Finnish figure- skating champion for 10 years says he's "the most talented pupil I ever had." Charlie was Canadian junior champion in 1951. At the recent 'world championships at Oslo, marking his first trip abroad, he placed seventh.
