Indians Meet A's Tonight;
Yanks Tangle With Browns
By RALPH RODEN
AMociBted Pre.. SporU Writer
The New York Yankees, Cleve
land Indians and Boston Red Sox
resume their three-cornered bat
tle for the American leaue pen
nant today after a welcome one
day respite.
Cleveland, trailing the pace-setting
Yankees by four percentage
points, has the toughest road to
travel. The Indians open their fi
nal eastern swing of the year in
Philadelphia with a twi-night dou
ble header with the pesky Athlet
ics. Including the twin-bill with the
A's, the Indians are charted to
play 13 games on the road before
returning home for two single
games against Detroit on the last
two days of the season. Thus Man
ager Al Lopez' Tribe is confronted
with the difficult task of winning
the pennant on the road, a feat
seldom accomplished.
Meanwhile, the Yankees, who
play 16 of their remaining 19
games at Yankee stadium, enter
tain the last place St. Louis Browns
In a double header.
Cloud In Plctur.
The only cloud in the Yankee
picture is that the Bombers are
booked to play the third-place Red
Sox eight games durin" the last
ten days of the season. If the Indi
ans enjoy a successful tour, they
could slip home first while the
Rea Sox and Yankees are at each
other's throats. The Red Sox, 5'i
games behind, clash with the fifth
place Detroit Tigers in Boston
while the one-two teams are en
gaged in twin bills.
Bob Feller (22-7) and Mike
Garcia (19-11) are scheduled to
go for Cleveland against the A's.
Philadelphia is countering with
lefties Alex Kellner (10-14) and
Sam Zoldak (5-9).
The A's, fresh from a double
victory over Boston Sunday, have
jarred both the Yankees and Indi
ans of late. They knocked the Yan
kees off the top perch three times
in 22 days and recently took two
out of three from the Indians in
Cleveland.
New York has feasted on the
Browns all season, winning 17 out
of 20 games. The Browns are
shooting Ned Carver (16-11) and
Tommy Byrne (4-10) against the
Yankees.
Top Two Clash
' The Yankees and Indians clash
In a two game series at the sta
dium beginning Sunday. After the
big series the Indians invade Bos
ton for a pair of games and then
head west.
Rookie lefthander Leo Kiely
(5-4), will attempt to pitch the
Red Sox back into the thick of
the fiEht aiainst Detroit. The Ti
gers have nominated Marlin Stu
art (4-5) to face the Sox. Stuart
has lost five straight.
Meanwhile, the Brooklyn Dodg
ers resume their drive for the Na
tional league pennant by engaging
the Reds in a night game at Cin
cinnati. The Dodgers are S'i
gtmes ahead of the runner-up New
York Giants. The Giants take on
the red hot Cardinals in a twi-night
twin bill al St. Louis. The Cards
have won 13 out of their last 14
starts.
The Dodgers are expected to call
up catcher Bob Bragan, manager
of their Fort Worth Texas league
farm, to help out until Roy Campa
nella returns to duty. Campanella
is on the sidelines with a bruised
right hip.
Al Walker is the Dodgers' sec
ond string catcher.
Williams Beaten
By Gil Turner
PHILADELPHIA UP) Gil
Turner looked ahead today to a
possible shot at Kid Gavilan's wel
terweight title after demonstrat
ing that, although only 20, he can
stand on equal footing with his
eldrs in the boxing world.
Young Gil proved that convinc
ingly last night by hammering
Ike Williams into helplessness 28
seconds before the final bell of
their scheduled 10-round bfiut at
Shibe nark . Williams weighed
144, Turner 145.
Williams, former lightweight
champion and a master of ring
science, had trained hard for this
one, because a victory would have
given him the opportunity to try
to recover his title from James
Carter, the man who beat him
earlier this year.
He stayed; with Turner through
the first nine rounds and appeared
to have built up a slight edge in a
very even fight until the final
stanza.
"But Ike, at 28, had tired badly
and was ripe for Turner's two
fisted assault that started midway
in the last round and ended at
2:32 when Referee Pete Tom
asco mericfully called an end to
hostilities. There were no knockdowns.

Champion Turpin
As Fight Nears
NEW YORK VP) Strong
betting support for Middleweight
Champion Randy Turpin has
dropped the odds favoring Ray
Robinson down to 9 to 5 today in
a very brisk betting market. The
price may even fall to 7 to 5.
But if you ask the guys in the
fight mob boxers, trainers and
managers you'll find them split
wide apart on the outcome. And
most of them believe the 23-year
old Briton should be no worse
than even money against sugar
Ray in their 15-round return title
bout at the Polo Grounds tomor
row night. .....

The International Boxing club

Oakland High School Football Team
Moves Up To Eleven Man League
Oakland high school has made
the change from six-man to 11
man football.
Coach Stephen Beck reported
the changeover Monday. He cited
two reasons for the change. He
said first, the school is a little
bigger and has enough boys to field
the larger team; second, interest
is not high for the six-man varie'y
of the grid game.
The school has a student popu
lation of about 110 students, Beck
said. Explaining the lack of in
terest in six-man football, he said
most people are acquainted in the
full scale game and cannot build
up enthusiasm for the reduced va
riety. He continued that since
enough boys could be fielded, ne
could see no reason for not making
the changeover.
Open Season Sept. 21
The Oaks will start their first
season under the 11 man system
this weekend against Rogue River
at Rogue River. The first home
game is against Myrtle Creek,
which will play without seniors,
on Sept. 21.
Including a Jayvee game with
the Myrtle Creek freshmen and
sophomores, the Oaks have six
games on the schedule. Coach
Beck expressed a desire for about
three more games.
Oakland, with Drain are the only
"B" school 11-man squads in the
county. Thus, while the Warriors
have been getting into the district
playoffs without opposition in past
years, they will have to conquer
the Oaks to make it this year.
Following is the incomplete
schedule to date:
Sept. 14 Rogue River (away)
Sept. 21 Myrtle Creek (without
seniors) (home)
Oct. 2 Oak J V's vs. Myrtle
Creek sophomores (away)
Oct. 5 Bandon (away)
Oct. 12 Drain (away)
Nov. 2 Mapleton (home)
News-Review Carriers
Whip Oregonian Boys
.David France, News - Review
carrier boy, pitched his News-Review
team to a 17-9 win over the
Oregonian carriers Saturday at the
Vetrans field.
The Softball tilt was another late
season encounter heralding plans
to start a newspaper league in'
southwestern Oregon in 1952,
France limited the Oregonian
carriers to 10 hits in posting his
win. His teammates were held to
six hits, but seven walks and an
error accounted for six runs in
the opening rame an edge they
never lost.
Former Indian
Receives Notice
According to late releases from
Willamette university at Salem,
Mickey Coen, last year's quarter
back for the Roseburg Indians, is
getting some notice for his pass
ing ability.
The release states that "Mickey
Coen of Roseburg has shown ability
to flip the oval." Coen will prob
ably take a backseat to the more
experienced Rick Bingham, but his
talents may come in handy as a
substitute. He is presently fighting
for the second spot with two other
stellar yearlings as a passing pros
pect. They are Jerry McNerney of
Parkdale and John Kent of Red
wood City, Calif.
Mentioning the freshman pros
pects, the release states, "The
more Willamette University's
coaching crew see of their freshmen-loaded
1951 football squad the
greater their likin? for what they
see."

NEW YORK m There will
be a small menu for college bas
ketball fans at Madison Square

Not only will such local favorites
as C.C.N.Y. and Long Island uni
versity be among the missing but
such out-of-town standbys as Ken
tucky, Kansas State, Bradley,
Bowling Green, San Francisco,
UCLA, Stanford and Washington
State will be absent.
There will be only 18 regular
scheduled doubleheaders at Madi
son Square Garden, the fewest in
years. Last year 28 twin bills were
scheduled but only 26 were held.
C.C.N.Y. and L.I.U. cancelled out
of the final two when their play
ers were disclosed to have been
involved in the widespread fixing
scandals.
The 18 college dates are the low
est for the Garden since the 1944-45
seasons when 18 also were played.
