Low-Grade Malignancy' Sidelines Sam Jones

A medical report showinc
low-grade malignancy" has de
layed Toothpick Sam Jones'
comeback try and clouded the
Detroit Tigers' pitching picture.
Jones, 36, whose trademarks
are a whiplash pitching delivery
and an inevitable toothpick, will
be lost to the club for an indef
inite period while undergoing
special treatment.

if Phil Moyer, who quit the professional ring to
enter the theatre business in Eugene, has decided to
return to the pro fight game. Nudging 200 pounds soon after
his retirement, Phil has been working out lightly for nearly
two months . and seriously
for the past two weeks and
. now weighs 169. . . .
Moyer will be managed
by John Gable who is pres
ently coach of the Eugene
. Boxing Club that stages an
amateur fight card at the
fairgrounds Cow Palace
. Friday night. Gable, by the
way, has developed one out-
' standing amateur since the
' Eugene club has been in
operation Bob Horn, 160-
. pound champion in the Mid
land Empire (Montana)
Golden Gloves, who was
voted the "most outstand
ing" boxer in the tourney
and will represent Oregon
in the National Amateur
Athletic Union (AAU)
. championships.
Phil Moyer isn't cer-
' tain when he will return to
the ring wars, depending
mnsllv on the ability of Sid
Flaherty, Portland fight manager, to match him.
There is some talk of having professional fights here.
Except for rare occasions when Jack Dempsey and Joe
Louis fought exhibitions, pro fights have seldom attracted
enough attendance to make the program financially worth
while. With fighters like Phil and Denny Moyer and Eddie
Machem available, pro fights could attract the attention of
sports followers in this area, though.
As coach Jack Walton will tell you the kids did
all of the work. Winning the Oregon A-2 basketball
championship at Coos Bay last week put a big feather in the
cap of not only the Pleasant Hill community, but the entire
i Emerald Empire as well. ...
! Two former University of Oregon athletes are particular
: ly proud of the triumph by the Billies Ed Siegmund and
' Bill Berg. ... Ed was a basketball star at Salem High and
later a fine hurdler for the Webfoots under the late Col. Bill
Hayward. Berg played basketball for the Webfoots under
Bill Reinhart . . . The two ex-Webfoots coached the present
Pleasant Hill boys when they were sixth-graders. . . .
Leo Harris, Oregon athletic director who was official
host to the 44th annual A-l basketball tournament at Mc
. Arthur Court, was on hand Thursday night when the Cleve
. land Indians, particularly Wayne Petersen and Dave Kaf
oury, were so torrid while shooting a fantastic percentage of
better than .500 that the south-end basket was broken before
halftime of the Cleveland-South Salem game Leo
helped replace the basket. ... In case of an emergency there
is also an extra glass backboard available at the Court, ac
cording to Harris.
if Three Northwest basketball players who started
their careers as outstanding sophomores completed their
competition during the past few weeks Oregon's Charlie
Warren, Washington's Bill Hanson, and Washington State's
Charlie Sells Oregon State's Jay Carty was not so ranked,
although the Beaver finished brilliantly. ...
Warren tied the school single-game scoring record, and
broke the one-season scoring mark, the career scoring record,
and had the most career field goals. . . . Hanson, a three-time
ill-Big Five selection, established a school record for re
bounds in a single game and finished third only to Bob
Houbregs and Doug Smart as the most prolific Washington
career scorer. . . . Sells established a career rebounding rec
ord at WSU. topping John Maras. . . .
Three Idaho players were honored at the close of the
season. Lyle Parks was presented the Jay Gano award as the
most inspirational player. Jay, a former Vandal player whose
wife at one time lived here, was killed in Korea. . . . Chuck
White won the Ronald White award as the most valuable
player. White, Vandal player, was killed in an auto ac
cident. The Oz Thompson award, presented to the player
with the best scholarship and sportsmanship, also was won
by Parks. Thompson, a member of Idaho's 1923 Pacific Coast
Conference title team, died a few ars ago.

Offer Draws
No Comment
CINCINNATI Wl There was
no comment Wednesday from
officials of the Crosley Foun
dation about Cincinnati Reds'
President Bill DeWitt's offer
to buy the baseball team.
Most of : the trustees of tne
foundation were out of town.
Its president, Mrs. Stanley E.
Kess was reported in Florida
where some of the negotiations
mentioned by DeWitt apparent
ly took place.
The foundation owns more
than 90 per cent of the Na
tional League champions' stock.
It was set up by the will of the
late Powel Crosley Jr., owner
of the Reds, who also urged the
foundation to keep the team in
Cincinnati.
When DeWitt announced
Tuesday he was negotiating to
buy the team, he added he
would definitely keep the Reds
here. He said any purchase
agreement would involve other
partners, but declined to name
them and stressed that "This
thing is in the nebulous stage
now."
The club's value has been es
timated at about $4 million.
All nine National League
clubs would have to approve the
transaction, as well as the Cros
ley Foundation and the Reds'
shareholders.

Pistons Eliminate
Royals in
By United press International
The Detroit Pistons are in the National Basketball Associa
tion's Western finals and the
semifinal series with the Philadelphia Warriors, thanks to a lost
art of basketball: defense.
Walter Dukes' iron-clad defense job on Wayne Embry was
the kev as the Pistons beat the Cincinnati Royals 112-111 Tuesday
night while Johnny Kerr held Wilt Chamberlain to 29 points and
out-rebounded him 22-20, enabling the Syracuse Chiefs to top
the Warriors 106-99. .
The Pistons thus took their
best-of-five series from the Roy
als three games to one, and the
Nationals tied their series at
two games each. The fifth and
decisive game of the National-
Warriors series will be played
at Philadelphia Thursday night.
Dukes, a seven-footer who
played his college ball at Seton
Hall, held Embry to just two
field goals before fouling out
with 4:45 remaining at Cincin
nati. Don Ohl scored 33 points,
including the clinching field
goal, and Gene Shue had 21 for
the Pistons. Oscar Robertson
scored 32 points and Jack Twy-
man tallied 22 for the Royals.
With 6-9 Kerr throttling
Chamberlain, the Nationals led
all the way at Syracuse. The
Warriors dropped behind by 16
points in the second period but
twice drew as close as four
points during the game. Each
time the Nationals pulled away
to a new bulge.
Kerr led the Nationals with
27 points, Al Bianchi had 17 and
Larry Costello had 16. Chamber
lain's 29 points were tops for the
Warriors followed by Tom Me
schery's 23 and Paul Arizin's 21.
Chamberlain made only 11 of
24 shots and Coach Dick Mc-
Guire said the 7-foot, 1-inch
NBA scoring champion "will
just have to shoot more Thurs
day night.
