was still worth something
"Mr old truck wan juot about ready for
retirement, but I couldn't get myself to take
the big step of buying a new one," write
Roy Gigi, of Globe Produce Co, Sari
Francisco.
"But, when the classified ads showed that
used truck prices were slipping, and when I
heard about the big trade-in allowance my
Ford Dealer was making, I decided to deai.
"I traded for new Ford while mv old
truck was atill worth something. If I had
waited few months longer, I would have
had to take a couple of hundred dollars lew
for my old truck."

Sunday Tilts; Bosox Only
2'j Games From Yankees
By JOE REICHLER
Ai.oclattd Preva Spnruwrltfr
Should the St. Louis Cardinals'
brilliant pennant drive end in
failure, the blame could be traced
to last January 29.
That was the day Robert Han
negan, then president of the
Lards, sold Murry D.kson, front
line pitcher, to the Pittsburgh
Pirates. The transaction brought
$125,000 in cold cash to St. Louis
but no players.
Dickson has not fared well In
Pittsburgh. The little righthander
has own able to win only six
gamos this season, but four of
them have been over his former
mates. He's made six starts
against the Cards, and has yet to
pncn a naa game.
The Redbirds faced a golden
opportunity to open their big
gest lead of the year over Brook
lyntwo and a-half games yes
terday. They had just whipped the
Pittsburgh Pirates, 4-2, in the
first game of a double header
while the Dodgers were losing
to Boston, 50. That gave the
front-running Cards a two-game
bulge. A victory in the second
gam? would increase their mar
gin to two and a half games
But they reckoned not with
their former pitching star. Murry
not only beat them but shut them
out on two singles. The score was
8-0.
Ered Martin, a repatriate from
the Mexican league, pitched the
4-2 win for the Cards.
Pete Castiglione and Dino Res
telll sparked the Pirates In the
second game. Castiglione had a
two-run homer and double. Res
telll hit a two-run homer and
single. Harry Brecheen was the
victim.
Bill Voiselle pitched the Braves
to their shutout victory over the
Dodgers.
Pete Raiser, whom the Brooks
traded to Boston last winter,
scored three of the winners' runs,
and knocked in two with a sin
gle and home run. Don New
combe, who has yet to beat Bos
ton, dropped his sixth decision.
Bosox Gain On Yanks
The Boston Red Sox closed in
on the American league-leading
New York Yankees, cutting their
first place margin to two and a
half games hv walloping Wash
ington 40. Philadelphia helped
tl.e Red Sox by downing the
xaiiKeed
Jack Kramer scattered seven
Senator hits to post his fourth
victory for the Red Sox.
Lefty Lou Brissie and first
baseman Ferris Ealn helped cele
brate "Connie Mack day at Yan
kee stadium, by leading the As
to their only win over the Yan
kees in the three-game set. Bris
sie went the route for his 12th
victory. Fain drove in six runs
with a double and a grand slam
homer.
Third place Cleveland split a
douhlehcder with the White Sox
In Chicago. The Indians came
from behind to win the second
game, 7-4, after Chicago had won
the o)cncr, 5-4.
St. Louis moved out of eighth
place by splitting a twin bill with
Detroit. Les Moss' two-run pinch
hit single In the eighth beat the
Tigera, 4 2, In the first game.
Home Runs by Vic Wertz, Pat
Mullin and Paul Campbell won
the second game for Detroit,
87.

Swim Meet
Times Posted Promise
Keen Competition In
Future State Programs
A near-capacity crowd was sat
isfied that Roseburg has a swim
ming team that may give other
aquatic clubs throughout the
state some keen competition in
future AAU meets.
With nary a team prospect In
sight a month ago, coach Bill
Evans, Colorado A & M breast-
stroke champion, produced a
group of local swimminers that
thoroughly impressed an inter
ested spectator crowd.
Roseburg Junior Chamber of
was run off with precision and
dispatch by members of the local
Jaycees. Comedy skits, a water
ballet and life saving demonstra
tions balanced out swim cara.
Oniy dark spot In the picture
was the lack ol entries iiom com
munities outside Roseburg. Bill
Evans' team was the only one
entered in the meet, although a
group from Drain had oeen ten
tatively scheduled to make an ap
pearance. Some of the times produced
were Impressive, in view of the
fact no swimmer had ever parti
cipated in a meet before. Dale
Robertson's time of 36 seconds
in the 60-yard freestyle and Nor
ine Kruysman's time of 1.35 in
the 100 -yard breast stroke were
among the better times set.
n.n .Tarklvn turned is a nice
performance in the 220-vard free
style, outdistancing the nearest
contender by several yards,
while in the 60-yard Individual
medley relay, Jim Hall, with a
time of 63 seconds, and Sue Lee,
78.3, drew applause from the
fans, In boys' and girls' events,
respectively.
Boys Win Medley Event
Highlighting the competitive
swimming was a medley relay
between the boys, girls and Jay
cee team. The Jaycees slipped in
a ringer (Guy Salassi), so coach
Bill Evans took Janice Ander
son's place on the girls' team.
The boys won, Jaycees came in
second and Evans burned up a
lot of energy trying to catch up
with Al Hughes, anchor man on
the Jaycee squad.
Tom Gilkey, Salassi and Claire
Pettit entertained the spectators
with a comedy swimming and
diving act, while Coach Evans
and Margarete Seafarth produc
ed an artistic water ballet.
Ray Brown, pool manager and
Junior high school coach, direct
ed a demonstration of lifesaving
techniques by members of his
class. Artificial respiration, front
and back breaks, boat rescue,
ring buoy and torpedo buoy res
cues were among the demonstra
tions offered.
Participating were Ronald Me
Aneny, Jver Hilde, Bob Ramskill,
Dale Lund, Phillip Singleton, and
Jim Hall, holders of lifesaving
tickets; Claire Pettit, senior life
saver; and Merle Hampton, Dale
Bergerson, Donald uttucum,
James Bewley and Donald Ab
bott, members of the current life
saving class. The classes are
coached by Brown, under the
auspices of the American Red
Cross.
The lifesaving course lasts
three weeks and is conducted lor
one and one-half hours, five days
per week.

blanked Leo Durocher's crew 4 0
for the Phils in the opener. The
second game was forfeited to the
Giants by Umpire Al Barlick in
the ninth inning when the Phil
adelphia customers rained pop
bottles and other missiles on the
field in protest over a decision
bv Umpire George Barr.
"Barr had ruled that Philly out
fielder Richie Ashburn had trap
ped a drive off the bat of Joe
Lafata. Ashburn argued that he
caught It. The Giants were in
front at the time, 4-2.

Dusette-Stojack
Go Is Draw; Szasz
Tosses Falletti
George Dusette and Frankie
Stojack wrestled to a draw In the
main event of Saturday's card
at the Roseburg armory, while
Al Szasz tussled Tony Falletti and
won In a two-out-of-three fall cur
tain raiser.
The main go offered mat fol.
lowers some extremely interest
ing tussling that had a near
capacity house split about evenly,
with some pulling for Stojack
while others urged Dusette on to
victory.
Dusette took the first fall with
his Inevitable full-nelson, a hold
he employs with unvarying suc
cess whenever given the oppor
tunity. The wiley Stojack tried to ma
neuver his stocky opponent Into
an airplane spin on several oc
casions with negligible success.
But in the end, Dusettl was
caught, falling victim to Stojack's
ever-popular flying Dutchman,
followed by a Boston crab.
Neither grappler would budrje
an inch in the third heat and
time ran out. Referee Elton
Owen extolled the virtues of
sportsmanship found In both men
after which both agreed to let a
flipped coin decide whom would
oppose Buck Weaver In a cham.
pionship bout in the near future.
Dusette won the toss.
In the other event, Szasz sizzled
Falletti for a quick first fall with
a whip wrist lock in 3i seconds.
The Italian bullied his way to
a five-minute and one second vic
tory in the second fall, utilizing
an arm lock as the pinning hold.
Szasz, a master of the wrist
whip lock, demonstrated his pet
pinner again In the third stanza
and Falletti retired to the dres
sing room dejected and defeated.
Hollywood Drops
Douhleheader To
2nd Place Oaks
By JIM HUBBART
Aaaoclated Preaa Sportawrltcr
Oakland may be puffing to
ward another Pacific Coast
league pennant unless the Holly,
wood Stars get up a new head of
steam.
The league leaders suffered
further humiliation at the hands
of the Acorns Sunday, losing botn
ends of a douhleheader, 7 to 0
and 7 to 6.
When Earl Rapp homered to
break a 6-to-6 deadlock In that
second game, a great shout went
up from the overflow multitude
of 14,500 Oakland citizens. It was
Rapp's 11th round tripper of the
season, and left the Oaks just
three games out of first place.
Veteran Charley Gassaway
twirled a masterful six-hitter to
shut out Hollywood In the regula
tion opener. Oakland, taking the
series five games to two, now
won the last five series In its
surge upwards.
Sacramento, which had been
tied for second, dropped back to
third by splitting with San Diego.
The Solons took the opener, 5 to
2, hut the Padres came back for
a 9-to-2 triumph In the afterpiece.
The teams also split the eight
garr.t series.
Portland repla ced San Francisco
in seventh place by dropping two
to the invading Seattle Rainiers,
while the Seals annexed a pair
from last place Los Angeles.
The Rainiers pounced on Port,
land starting pitcher Hal Saltz
man and reliefer Bill Fleming for
seven hits and six runs in the
seventh inning of the first game.
The outburst broke a 1 to 1 dead
lock and launched Seattle to a
10 to 1 triumph. The Rainiers
tucked away the nightcap, 2 to
1, on two unearned runs, taking
the series, 5 to 2.
Lefty O'Doul's boys, mean
while, won 8 to 3 and 6 to 2 at
Los Angeles. The outcome ran
the Seals' winning streak to five
straight and gave them six out
of seven In the series.

Record For Second Time
Horse racing starts again to
night, after a one-day respite, at
the county fairgrounds, at new
post time, 8:00 o'clock.
The bangtails are starting into
the home stretch of the 10-day
meeting, running six nights this
week to complete the session.
Thirteen thousand fans saw the
first four days of the meeting,
with 5100 of them jamming into
the stands Saturday night.
