terms the American League
pennant race a mree cum oaiue

isn't any team better" than the
one he manages. -.
The third place White Sox opened
a four game series here Tuesday
night with the second dace New

"Any of the three leading clubs
that gets red hot for a spell could
win it," said Richards. r
"A 13-game winning streak such
as the Yankees finished on Sunday
could be devastating if any one of
us had such good luck from now
on in. But I doubt if anybody does
have such a break of fortune. The
way I see things, it's going to 1te
a ding-dong, three club battle right
to the wire."- .

Yankees Monday from " the
press box at Yankee Stadium and
aeiuea ne stole any Yansee signals,
I merely was out to enjoy a
ball game objectively," said Rich
ards. Manager Casey Stengel of
the Yankees had expressed some
concern because from one wing of
the press box it is possible to look
into the Yankee dugout
"Your hitters have got to be
doing their best or your pitching
will go to waste," said Richards in
- aiagnosing U,B American league
race. - :
"That's the way I see the situa
tion during the 10 games the Yank
ces will play withus and the In
oians during the next 19 days.
"AH three clubs have top men
in the run producing department
guys you couia cau keys to sue

production out of these men is the
one that is bound to move ahead."

An up-to-date financial picture of Salem Senators, Inc., was
provided Tuesday by Bruce Williams, president of the baseball
club's board of directors. It was accompanied by the enthusiastic
prediction that "if we can draw between 30,000 and 33,000 fans for
our zz remaining noma dates
this season, we will possibly have
the best financial season we've
bad here since the corporation
took over the ball club in 1931."
Williams pointed out , that on
TJune 22, when the "Save Your
Senators' night was held, the or
ganization .was approximately
$17,000 in debt, and with no bank
account whatever. . ..
Thanks to the -LOOO-plus -who
attended the Save" night, and
the persistent efforts of Williams
and the board of directors since
then, they have reduced the ac
counts payable column to slight
ly less than 310,000, and now
have a bank account in the neigh
borhood of $5,000.
'. Much of this was secured by
the board members' collecting
money for, stock pledged in the
club lasUyear, and via the sale
oz oonus ucxet dooki.
The club is faced with a stiff
outlay of cash on August 1. Some
32,600 must be paid out in sal
aries, and other bills total around
$4,000, which include government
tax, lights, etc. r
"Despite the worst June on
record for weather and our poor
attendance - to date," Williams
summarized, "we can come close
to breaking even for the entire
season if we can draw around
70,000 for the year.-JV
The Senators' attendance total
to date is 38,467. .
"If we can pick up $1,500 for
Wednesday nijht's 'Pack the
Park' game here, it will solve
lots of worries we have about
uiat August x facing Ms," Wil
liams added. : ,r ' .. '-
There ace eight games on the
Waters Field schedule between
now and August h and if attend
ance 4or tonight's "Pack the
Park, game,' Thursday night's
"New York Giants Night" and
others are sufficient as hoped,
the club will be without many
of its financial problems.
- Admission is free to tonight's
game, but patrons will find bar
rels installed at each entrance
into which they will be invited
to toss whatever "admission fee"
they desire.
Williams furthered, "We're clos
er to breaking even here than any
other dub-in the league by thou
sands of dollars, which is a dis
tinct tribute to the efforts of Bill
Paul us, Russ Bonesteele, Bob Ash-
by and Walt Zosel (members of
the Senators board)."
So this week is another crucial
one in the life of the current 25th
St operation. If things go right
(most of em through the turn
stiles at Waters Field), the "June
disaster" could be wiped out and
the 1954' operation, financially
peaking, turn out to be the best
of tne last lour., seasons here.

5-2 favorite over rugged Moses
Ward of Detroit in his U.S. ring
debut Wednesday night at Chicago

Ward, a 23-year-old slugger with I

West Indies. ' i

nationally starting at C p.m. PST
(CBS).
Pompey has an Impressive rec:
ord and is ranked fifth among the

the hopes of an eventual shot at
Bobo Olson s crown. , .
In 30 fights, Pompey has lost one,
fought to two draws and has scored
20 knockouts. His only defeat came
when he got down to 162 pounds for
Bobby Dawson Jan. 25. He weighed
16 in his last start when he
knocked out Guilano Panchini, May
13, in London. 4
Pompey fought a draw with Jim
my Slade, recent winner over Tom

Burkemo Calls
Kroll Bisest
Fear in PGA.
. . . , . . . i . ..
t . j . . '
By WDX GRIMSLEY t
ST. PAUL, Minn, tfl Defend
ing Champion waiter Burkemo
took issue with the experts Tues
day and named lightly-regarded
Ted Kroll as the man to beat for
the Professional Golfers Assn. title
during the next week. ,
"I'm not discountHngT my own
chances of repeating because I'm
playing well." the boon -faced
Franklin, Mich., pro said, "but if
I had to name me man I fear most
it would be Kroll.' j-
Ted is murderous with the
wedge and is putting great This is
the course that favors a man who
is master -of the wedge."
"There is a lot. of talk of Sam
Snead and Cary Middlecoff. They
are great hitters and dangerous
on a long, tough course. But they'll
be just two other players here."
: The first round of the 36-hole on-the-scene
. qualifying ! begins over
the sun - parched Keller Course
Wednesday morning. Although ex
empt, Burekomo said be would try
for the $250 medalist; prize.
A total of 135 touring and teach
ing pros, the best in their respec
tive sections, will attempt to quali
fy Wednesday and Thursday. The
64 survivors will launch match
play Friday when two- 18-hole
rounds will be played.
This day has become luiowa jtji
"Black Friday" for toe b& name
pros, who in recent years have fall
en like mown bay in these two cur
tailed opening rounds. After the
first day, all matches go the 36
hole route through next Tuesday's
finals. : -'-' i
Thus a total ' of 316 holes Is
crammed into seven days, making
the PGA the, most rugged test in
golf. Its strenuous nature long ago
discouraged Ben Hogan, who
hasn't participated since he won it
in 1948.' - , . v.,.
That year, incidentally, Vas the
last time before this that the event
has been honored with the presence
of the-UA open titleholder.
Ed Furgol, surprise winner i
the Open last month at Baltusrol,
is a contender thanks to a para
graph in the PGA bj-laws which
makes the Open king automatically
eligible but he doesn't think much
of his chances.' ' I i .
Snead and Middlecoff, who have
taken away most of the loot from
the St. Paul Opens played here
annually, are the gallery and
newspaper favorites, I but Sam
turned up again Tuesday with a
sore neck which might nullify bis
chances.
