PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP)—A gas house manager. Eddie Stanky denies it. His reputation as a tough, hard-boiled guy persists in staying with him, but the St. Louis Cardinal skipper, starting his second season at the helm, insists he is no different from any other conscientious manager. Taking time out from his field duties at the Cardinals' first spring workout of the year, Stanky frankly discussed his first year problems as a big league pilot and gave an insight of his plans for 1953. "Me tough?" he asked. "I should say not. I'm a firm believer in discipline on a ball club but I don't believe in cracking a whip. I don't ask a player to do anything I wouldn't do on or off the ball field. I don't believe in bawling out a player in front of others. If I'm forced to fine anybody, it's nobody's business but his own. Nobody will ever find it out from me. The only way anybody will know is if the player chooses to tell about himself." Stanky admitted he made a few mistakes last year and it took him a little while to adjust himself to his new surroundings as well as his new job, but thinks most of the kinks are ironed out now and looks forward to enjoying his second year as manager more than his first. Stanky discussed his "pound-off flesh" measure whereby players are to be fined $2 for every pound they report over a prescribed weight. Although only the pitchers and catchers have reported, there already have been four culprits. One of them happens to be Manager Stanky, who had to shell out $9 because of four and a half pounds in excess of his prescribed 161 pounds. The others are pitchers Al Brazile and Cliff Chambers and Coach Johnny Riddle. The fines collected for excess weight, as well as for missing signs, not advancing runners, etc., go into a flower and gift fund for maternity cases, illness and deaths in players' families. "People think I'm a shylock who pockets the dough." Stanky said the Cards would have only one workout a day, in contrast to the double workout system that prevailed during the reign of previous St. Louis managers. "My feeling is that a player can spend two and a half hours on the field." Stanky said. "Then he can have time to go fishing, play golf, go bathing or spend the time with his family. I'm in favor of the boys bringing their families down and enjoying themselves as long" Three on Seeded Players List in Quarter-Finals of Tennis Trials Union Oil Drops Rosan 44-35 in Industrial Play Undefeated Union Oil last night retained its lead in the Industrial Basketball League by defeating Rosan 44-35 after maintaining a comfortable lead throughout the game.

Insurance Man Tells Jaycee Soaring Jury Verdicts Boosting Premiums The public must halt the inflationary spiral of excessive jury verdicts in personal injury cases—or pay the consequences, a Los Angeles insurance adjuster warned in Anaheim last night. Victor J. Robbins, claims adjustor for the Guarantee Insurance Company, told the Anaheim Junior Chamber of Commerce that soaring jury verdicts would eventually require higher insurance premiums and state legislation limiting the size of an award in personal injury cases. Robbins said that a number of states already limit the size of death cases to $10,000, $7500 or less. "It is only a short step to extend this limitation to personal injuries, as well as death," he said. He said that the insurance companies do not advocate arbitrary limitation of awards and would also prefer avoiding higher insurance premiums. "There is only one way to avoid these undesirable alternatives," said Robbins, "and that is to restore moderation to jury verdicts by enlightened public opinion." "Citizens must understand that when acting as jurors they must listen to evidence and arrive at a verdict based on facts—allowing no place for the play of emotion or prejudice in arriving at their verdicts." "The foremost issue in any personal injury case is—whose fault was the accident?" "In California' the law requires that even if the defendant was at fault, the plaintiff was also partly responsible for the accident, he is not entitled to recover at all." Robbins' appearance was arranged through Western Insurance Information Service of Los Angeles. He was introduced by Bob Heinz, Jaycee president, at a dinner meeting at the Elks club in Anaheim.

COUNTY Pound to Get SA Stray Dogs As the Santa Ana city council approved an agreement with the county, under which the city pound on North Bristol street will be vacated and the handling of stray animals turned over to the county poundmaster, requests for adoption of a leash law for all dogs in the city was rejected. A small group of proponents of the leash law appeared before the council but failed to win their point. Councilmen pointed out that a present city ordinance contains a clause giving the poundmaster full authority to pick up any animals running at large, on the filing of a complaint. This, the council considered, was sufficient control.
