The 26-year-old Meadowbrook Pa., hurler who signed for a $65,000 bonus on a five-year plan in 1947, says he received the quick hook treatment under Manager Mayo Smith In 1955. "Sure I had a sore arm and wasn't able to throw last spring, but it wasn't that sore all season" says Simmons "I bad 22 starts and completed only three games. "Baseball has changed. When I pitched fpr Steve O'Neill 1 had no trouble going the distance. Now they say lama seven-in.iing pi' -'It er." Simmons had an 8-8 record last season and this one-time sound arm pitcher had less starts than veterans Murray Dickson and Herm Wehmeier. Curt had a poor year and his earned run record of 4.92 rtrtts per game was the poor est since he came up with Wilming ton. Del. Percentage wise. Sim mons had the league's worst record j for complete gati:es. In his three preceding years he won 14, 16 and 14 games, in order. In 1950 he had a 17-8 record for 680 which was a better percentage than ace Robin Roberts who was 20-11 for .645. He missed the World Series that fall because his Nation al Guard unit was called up by the Army. * , "In my case I think there was too much accent on relief pitch ing," reasons Simmons. "I would invariaby be lifted for a pinch hitter when 1 felt I could go on longer." Simmons, however, has seen his strikeouts drop each year from a high of 146 in. 1990, He had only 56 for 130 innings in 1955, com pared with 125 for 253 frames in 1954. Simmons feels he can come back because he says his arm feels One this spcing Phillie president Bob Carpenter says: "Simmons still has confidence and I think he'll be all right. How ever, it was rather unfair to have a couple of New York writers say that Simmons was finished. Why they never even came to camp or j spoke to Simmons. "If a writer can tell for sure ! that a pitcher is finished at 26 ,then that writer is in the wrong i business." , CURT SIMMONS 'Unto These Hills' To Open At Cherokee Tuesday Night The colorful, historic Cherokee Indian drama, "Unto These HUls," will begin its seventh summer long season in Mountainside Thea tre at Cherokee Tuesday, June 26, at 8:15 p.m. Acclaimed by critics as America's foremost play of history.
