Regular Meeting-
o i
Unhappy
Tactics
By HUGH FULLERTON, JR.
NEW YORK Report
trickling in from Brooklyn via the
Brighton Beach local is that some
of the Dodger players are dis
tinctly unhappy about Barney
Shotton's handling of the club. . .
regardless, there's a strong feel
ing that Shotton will be allowed
his wish to retire to Bartow, Fla.,
next season. . .come to think of
it, more than one major league
manager must be feeling uneaxey
now 'hat the season is in the
homestretch notablv. of course,
Jack Onslow of the White Sox. . .
there's a growing suspicion that
Billy Southworth won't return to
the Braves. . . Bill Veeck might
renew his efforts to depose Lou
Uoudreau, unless he disposes of
the Indians first. . . and who'd
want to say lor sure that Blly
Meyer, whose health Isn't too
good, Frank Frisch, Leo Duro
cher or Zack Taylor will be on
duty next spring?
Facing Th Moo-sick
Michigan Stale, newest mem
ber of the Big Ten, hopes to get
out of the "little cow" college's
class in football by whipping
mighty Michigan this fall. . .but
the Spartans still get a belt out
of retelling an Incident which
happened when that designation
still was correct. . .as usual, the
university was giving "the Ag
gies" a terrific pasting In an ear
ly season game. . .during the sec
ond hall Fielding Yost, then
Michigan coach, spotted a bat
tered. bloody Michigan Stale
player heading toward the lock

The game Isn't over vet," Yost
shouted. . . "Mr. Yost," the young

On-Minute Sports Pag
The "cup of the Americas"
polo series in Argentina next No-
vember may turn out to be a flop
because Cecil Smith and George
Oliver won't be able to play for
the United States. Smith, easily
the world's best poloist today,
thinks his ranch business may
keep him home In Texas. Oliver's
recent Injury was somewhat
more serious than It was first be
lieved. If Pancho Gonzales turns pro,
as expected, Australia's Frank
Sedgman should clean up In am
ateur tennis next year. And the
pros likely would make him their
next objective. . .
Football Rules
Will Be Only
Slightly Changed
Only minor changes were In
corporated Into the 1949 high
school football rules, according
to A. Oden Hawes. representing
the Oregon High School Activi
ties association. He spoke last
night, before a group of local
football officials and coaches at
Junior high, school.
This year, a klckoff that goes
out of bounds may not be re
peated, but the ball will be re
turned to the offensive side's 40
yard line for a first and .10.
Heretofore, a klckoff that went
out of bounds was repeated a sec
ond time.
It was decided to continue the
ruling that a fumbled hall may
be recovered by either team and
the runner may continue until
tackled or until a touchdown is
scored.
However, the defense must
ground the hall It the nffene
tumbles It on a backward pass.
Technical changes were made
In the rules, but for the most
part they are the same as those
of last year, Hawes indicated.
Ten local oflicials and coach
es attended the meeting, which
Included the showing of a mo
tion picture describing the new
rule changes and an of
finals test, which all officials
must pass before they are per
mitted to arheit football con
tests in Oregon.

Yankees Come
Through With
Win Over Sox
Smokty Jos Pago Man
Of Tht Hour As Team
Wins By Scort Of 5-2
By JACK HAND
AMoelatrd Preaa Snort-writer
Smoky Joe Page is the man of
the hour for the embattled New
York Yankees.
Hero In 1947, but a failure tn
1918, the strong-armed fireman
from the bullpen Is a leadin?
candidate for the most valuable
player in the American league.
Page never was better than
he was last night as he struck
out four of the five men he
faced in the Yanks' Important
52 victory over Boston.
Called to the rescue of Allle
Reynolds after Bobby Doerr trip
led with the potential tying run
in the eighth. Page blazed his
fast ball past the Red Sox in a
sizzling performance that dam
pened their pennant hopes.
Now 2i games behind the
Yanks, who never have been out
of first place since opening day,
the Sox must win the linal two
games of the Yankee stadium
series to remain within strik
ing distance.
Sox Early Lead
Boston took an early lead on
Reynolds' wildness, but the
Yanks struck back to go ahead,
3 J. on Bill Johnson's second
triple and a costly error by
Vein Stephens before Page ap
peared on the scene.
Al Zarilla he retired on one
pilch.
Then he fanned Billy Good
man to end the inning.
Bobby Brown's homer follow
ing Phil Rizzuto's bunt single
made it 5-2 in the eighth, but
Page never let up. He wlffcd
Birdie Tebbetls, pinch-hitter Matt
Batts and Dom DiMaggio to end
the game.
It's a discouraging UDhlll
struggle for Boston which sends
F.llis Kinder out to oppose Kd
die Lopat In today's game. The
Sox are five down on the all
important losing side. They have
only 19 to play as compared to
24 for the Yanks.
Games Rained Out
Rain knocked out the Cleveland-Detroit
and Philadelphia
Washington games, but the Chi
cago White Sox scampered home
with a 71 triumph over the St.
Louis Browns. Bill Wight stump
ed the Brownies with a four
hitter. In the National league St.
Louis came from behind to shade
Chicago, 3-2, alter Brooklyn had
nosed out Boston, 5-4. The Cards
still load by one full game.
Four sharp singles in the last
of the ninth pulled the Cards
out of a loss that would have
left them only two percentage
points ahead of the Brooks. Glenn
Nelson, who hit a homer In the
fifth started the winning surge.
Solly Hemus, Nippy Jones and
Marty Marion followed his lead
to give Howie Pollet win No.
18.
Fight Ensues
Violence flared In flat bush as
Eddie Stanky of the Braves and
Spider Jorgensen of the Dodgers
squared off in a fist fight that
invoked members of both clubs.
After both were ejected, Eddie
Miksis replaced Jorgensen. He
came through with the game-
winning blow, a two-run homer
In the seventh inning, his first
of the year.
Jack Banla, striking out nine
enroute to his eighth win, gave
way to Joe Hatten when the
Braves threatened in the ninth.
Hatlen ended the game with one
pitch to pinch-hitter Mickey Liv
ingston.
Kenny Raffensberger of Cin
cinnati nailed down his 15th vic
tory with his first home run In
subduing Pittsburgh. 5-2.

Chester Daniels
May Take Place
Of TedMeland
UNIVERSITY OF OREGON,
Eugene, Sept. 8 (Special)
Chester Daniels, a stubby 193
pound Junior guard, and Gerald
Moshofsky, a 211-pound sopho
more, joined Earl Stelle, Jim
Calderwood and Joe Tom as the
key men In the 1919 Oregon foot
ball picture this week.
Daniels and Moshofsky were
suddenly spotlighted when eligi
bility trouble eliminated Ted Me
land as the starting left guard
for the Ducks. Heland. a regu
lar for three years, left a gap
ing hole in the Oregon offen
sive line and Coach Jim Aiken
was forced to Juggle his person
nel In an attempt to plug the
gap.
"I honestly thought we had
the best offensive line unit in
the league with Meland to han
dle the key blocking assignments,
but this latest development cer
tainly leaves us a little thin,"
the Oregon boss said. "Daniels
and Moshofsky are both hard
working youngsters, but they
lack the experience Meland gave
us."
Daniels devoted the majority
of his work last fall to defen
sive jobs and was assigned to
the same chores again this fall.
He has good speed, hut lacks
the brute strength which Meland
used to clear out the holes.
Moshofsky, a youngster who
vaulted over six other players
last year to earn a starting job
as a tackle with the Ducklings,
was expected to spend this yvar
picking up additional experience
before he was slated for full time
duty.
Under the new setup, Daniels
will play the majority of the
offense and Moshofsky will move
into the lineup on defense. Stelle,
Calderwood and Tom, the quar
terbacks who are fighting fnr
Van Brocklin's old job as the
key In the offensive backfield
setup, continued to show steady
Improvement as the twlce-aday
scrimmage gave them ample op
portunity to get game-condition
experience.
With the opening game with
St. Mary's in San Francisco only
10 days away, the Ducks appear
ed to have the following men
ready to start In the opening line
up: Darrell Robinson and De
Wayne Johnson at ends, Steve
Dotur and Sam Nevills at tackle.
Chet Daniels and Ed Chrobot at
guard, Dave Gibson at center,
Stelle at quarterback, Woodley
Lewis and George Bell at half
backs and Bob Sanders at full
back. T7T

Bill Yan Horn
Will Replace
D. Bonebrake
Shift From Right Sid
Of Line It Indicated .
By Coach Cect Sherwood
Bill Van Horn looms as the
likeliest persons to replace Dale
Bronebrake as left halfback on
the Indians varsity football team.
Coach Cece Sherwood Indicated
in an interview last night.
Bonebrake, who suffered a
hone separation In his shoulder
as the result of a fall while being
tackled in scrimmage Tuesday
afternoon, Is expected to be out
of action for a good many weeks,
Sherwood said.
The shifting of Van Horn from
right to left halfback position has
made it necessary to rearrange
other spots In the backfield. Bob
Scott was moved from fullback
to right half, and Frank Weber
remains as the likeliest fullback
prospect.
Coach Sherwood indicated Ron
nie Strickling may get the nod
for the quarterback post over Bob
Barrows and Mickey Coen, al
though the latter two are press
ing Strickland hard for the key
position and may land the post
eventually.
Groom Kickers
Candidates for punt formation
kickers are Jerry Sconce, Bob
Scott and Boh Barrows, while
klckoff men will include Weber
and Sconce.
Back in uniform after a vaca
tion in the midwest is George
Packard, veteran end from last
year's team.
Coach Sherwood reported the
latest list of football prospects is
limited to 39 men. Two more men
signed up yesterday afternoon.
Medford's Black Tornado, Rose
burg's first opponent, will draw
from nearly 50 candidates. The
opening tilt is scheduled for Sept.
16 at Finlay field.
Wednesday's practice Including
tackling, in which department the
players have been weak. Sher
wood said the boys have improved
considerably since Saturday, but
tackling will continue to be one of
the heavy items on the drill
agenda. .
Thursday's program will In
clude more tackling, passing and
receiving, kickoff formation and
goal conversion drills.

Cal University
Will Field Big
Team Of Bruisers
By RUSS NEWLAND
BERKELEY, Calif. P Uni
versity of California will field a
big, bruising football squad again
this season. By sheer numbers it
will grind some of the opposition
into the ground.
The team, however, doesn't
boast the class of last year's co
champion of the Pacific Coast
conference and Rose Bowl loser
to Northwestern. The absence of
Jack Jensen is the big reason.
Fullbacks like Jensen are flush
ed out only occasionally. When he
cast his lot with professional base
ball the Bears lost their greatest
backfield threat. His replacement,
Pete Schabarum, is a hard hit
ting ball packer but Jensen was
in a class by himself.
A new blow hit the Bears last
night. John Cunningham, first
string right end for three years
was ruled ineligible because he
attended West Texas State Teach
ers' college througn the 1942 foot
ball season.
And when three-year letterman
Doug Duncan failed to return,
California was weakened at cen
ter. Coach Lynn Waldorf comment
ed gloomily that Cunningham's
loss accentuated his problem.
With the exception of George
Stathakis, sophomore center, how
ever, the Bears will have letter
men starting at everv position on
the offensive team. Waldorf again
will use the two platoon system,
one team on offense and the
other on defense.
Chicago, surrendered.
State police, summoned by
Whettington's wife, found a car
full of guns, watches, jewelry,
and other goods parked outside.
State Police Officer John Mich
aels said the men admitted driv
ing from Chicago In a stolen car,
robbing stores along the way.
Some of the goods In the ear
were from a Vancouver, Wash.,
sporting goods shop, robbed Sun
day night, Michaels said.
