Baseball Bill Vote Urged By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS NEW YORK (AP) Bill Shea, founding father of the Continental League, today appealed to Sen. Kenneth Keating (R-NY) to per mit the controversial Kcfauver bill to go to the Senate floor for a vote. The bill, which would curtail filaycr operations by the major eagues by permitting the draft oi any piaycr in ino minora wim four years' experience in organ ized Ball, must go through if the Continental League is to make it, Shea admitted. . Last Friday, Keating kept the bill from reaching a vote by exer cising his personal privilege, lie asked for a one-week delay. Keating Called "I hope Sen Keating lives up to his word and he is interested in expansion," Shea said. "If he forc es further delay while saying he is for expansion, It would be a bad situation. v "I am taking his word that he wanted only a one-week delay, A week delay is all we can stand. Even that was harmful. Another delay would be murder. But I am certain that once it reaches the floor, it will be passed." Shea's statements followed Con tinental League President Branch Rickey's endorsement of the bill. Rickey also blasted American Assn. President Ed Dohcrty as the "undertaker of the American Assn." Million Demanded Rickey said the American Assn, is demanding one million dollars indemnity for each of the five cit ies it stands to lose to the new league. He accused Doherty of trying to sabotage the continental by mak ing unreasonable demands. "Even if the American Assn, could defeat the purposo of the Continental League," fumed Rick ey, "the American Assn; will die certainly, within two years. I have been studying attendanco figures and I know for a certainty Dohcr ty is the undertaker of the Amer ican Assn. "I am not prepared to negotiate with anybody on the basis of a million dollars. The Continental League has tlio future health of the American Ansn. much more in mind than Mr. Dohcrty." He added that the Continentals would move the fivo American Assn. franchises they are slated to take over to other cities and operato them as farm clubs, thus protecting and Insuring the league. year, since thev have reached is The senior boys champion last year was Brundage, who will be back again at 16.

"Strictly a two-horse race," he said. "Bally Ache and Tompion. And the way Bally Ache beat the other one in the Jersey Derby, there's no doubt as to how it will finish. Bally Ache will win." Ussery, of course, is prejudiced. He is Bally Ache's jockey. Bobby has been practically liv ing with Bally Ache. Monday he took the big colt on his final big workout for Saturday's Belmont Stakes and was caught in 1:46 for the mile. Crown Eyed The Belmont has more than or dinary interest for Bally Ache. A victory and he clinches the 3-year-old crown, The Belmont Is a longer race, a mile and a half, but the distance couldn't worry Ussery less. "What difference does the dis tance make," Ussery shrugged. "My horse can run all day. Tom pion had us headed at the eighth Dole in the Jersey Stakes, but we were running away from him In the last sixteenth. Trainer Jimmy Pitt is just as confident as Ussery. "The amazing thing about Bally Ache," observed Pitt, "is how he keeps his form all year. "He's definitely not a work horse," Pitt said. ''If Bobby doesn't keep with him, he has a tendency to flop all over the place. But he always feels good. He even comas out of his workouts playing. Some horse." out for the team may do so up to June 17. The tryouts will be closed after that. .

GB 21 .571 ,569 23 21 .553 23 .531 .489 .447 SVis .438 6Y2 .407 m By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The pitching was excellent and idleness was a virtue Monday in the Pacific Coast League's bob tailed schedule. Chet Nichols, southpawing a four-hit, 3-0 victory for Vancouver over Sacramento, toppled the league-leading Solons into a near tie with Spokane and did the rest of the league a favor. Idle Tacoma, Seattle, Salt Lake City and Portland each gained half a game on the losing Solons without turning a southpaw or righthand finger. Spokane got a sterling hill per formance from Billy Harris, whose righthand slants were solved for only three hits by San Diego in the 4-1 bpokane victory. Not content with his mastery of Sacramento on the mound, Nich ols singled in the third inning and scored the first Vancouver Moun tie run, then singled again in the fourth to push home bteve Jan kowski with the final Vancouver taliv. He held Sacramento scoreless until Bill Shields, pinch hitting, singled in the sixth inning. Harris got all the aid he need in the first inning when Spokane scored three runs, two of them on a Charlie Smith's sixth home run of the vear. The win was Harris' fifth in a row and sixth of the season, al though an arm injury forced him to turn over the finishing chore to Ed Patmquist in tne nintn inning, Universal! - Take-Offi TRANSMISSION GEARS STACK MUFFLERS TIE-ROD ENDS KING PINS BEARINGS SEALS AXLES RAY'S TRUCK PARTS 1591 N. E. St.phem St., Roieburg OR 3-3360 Brundage, Edwards Mound Picks For Wednesday League Openers The Northwest Legion Junior de fending champion Lockwood Mo tors team of Koseburg will open its 1B60 home season Wednesday night by facing the South Eugene nine in a doubleheader. The Rnsebur? crew ooened the season in Medford Saturday night with a twin-killing, 3-1 and 6-1 and added two wins from uranis rass Sunday, 11-9 and 7-1. Rosehur? coach Bill Harner to day expects to see the South Eu- geno team neiu a tougner nine than the Lockwood3 faced at Med ford or Grants Pass. Harper said South Eugene has one of the fin est pitchers in the state and will probably throw him in one of the two games here Wednesday night. The first contest is slated to get under way at 6:30 p.m. Brundage Due Harper said he'll open with right hander Mike Brundage on the mound for the home opener. This will be the first start for the 16-year-old Brundage, who played some Legion Junior ball last year. For the second game of the twin bill, Harper plans to start with Drain's Denny Edwards. He said Royce Kiser will probably see some mound action in this game also. Both are righthanders. Chuck Hiney, one of three start ers returning from last year's championship aggregation, will be behind the plate both games. The other returnees from the ti tle nine are second baseman Jim Jarvis and shortstop Marvin French, both of whom will be in front-line roles Wednesday night. The infield will be rounded out with Dennis Arana at first and Gor don Avery on third. Outfielders Listed Starting in the outfield for the first outing In front of hometown fans will be Doug Coplin in left, Bill Franks in center and cither Ron Poliev or Joe Bradv in right. Harper, who said he was well impressed with the Lockwoods in their opening twin win, declared he feels the local crew has a strong infield, but lacks experience in tho outfield. He said the hitting Saturday night was encouraging, but again added he expects to see much tougher pitching thrown against his team here Wednesday night. The local nine beat South Eugene in both meetings of the two teams last year. Jackson Claims ST. LOUIS (AP) - Pitcher Larry Jackson of St. Louis, win ner of six straight games, says his 7-5 record would be better except for carelessness. And, he says, there'll be no more of that. . The Cardinal right-hander won his sixth straight game Monday night as St. Louis defeated Phila delphia 5-2. The Phils bunched three of their seven hits for both runs in the first inning. From that point on, Jackson had control. He struck out nine and didn't walk a man. In his last six triumphs, Tack son has given up 12 runs, 10 of them earned. That compares with 20 runs permitted in his sad start this season, when he lost five games and won only one. Jackson said he has been able to concentrate better in the past six games, although he noted that his first two losses were by mar gins of 3-1 and 3-2. Pitching coach Howie Pollett said, "Carelessness is one of tho things that has kept him from be ing a big winner." But Pollett ' said the team had occasionally let down Jackson on defense and at bat.
