Wills Says He Could Have
Stolen Another 20 Bases
ST. LOUIS (A-Maury Wills of the Los
Angeles Dodgers says all be can think about
"are the 20 or so bases I could have stolen
early in the season."
Wills must steal three bases in tonight's
game between the Dodgers and the St.
Louis Cardinals to break Ty Cobb'i modern
record of 96 stolen bases in a 154-game
schedule.
"If I had tried hard at the beginning of.
the season I could have more than 100 stolen
bases now," said Wills. "I know of at least
20 bases I could have had.
"That's all I can think about now the
bases I could have had."
Wills was disheartened when he learned
Thursday that baseball commissioner Ford
Frick said Wills would have to steal 97
bases in the first 154 games to be officially
credited with breaking Cobb's record.
Wills said Cobb had 156 games in 1915
in which to set his mark because two con
tests ended in ties and had to be replayed.
"What was good enough for Cobb is good
enough for me," Wills said.
"All this time I've been under the im
pression that it was 156 games."
Wills said he thought be could steal at
least one base in each of the three games
with the Cardinals, enough to better Cobb's
mark in 156 games.
"As far as I'm concerned I might as well
forget trying to break Ty Cobb's record for
stolen bases. He said he has stolen three
bases in one game many times, but doubted
if he could do that tonight.
Wills spent Thursday in his hotel room
resting and letting his bruised legs mend.
"I'm bruised up from sliding and fouling
off some balls that hit me on the legs.
That's where it hurts," he said.
Frick said Thursday, "The commissioner's
office takes the same decision it took last
year in the Ruth -Maris case. Cobb's record
is based on a 154-game schedule."
Roger Maris had 59 home runs through
154 games for the New York Yankees last
year and finished the 162-game season with
61. Frick ruled that Maris had to break
Ruth's record of 60 home runs in the first
154 games scheduled to avoid an asterisk
after the record indicating that it was set in
a 162-game schedule.
Predicting the Pros
Cards Over Packers!
By JACK CLARY
Of the Associated Press
NEW YORK One of the
great uncertainties of the space
age is not only who will win the
race to the moon, but who will
win the weekend's pro football
games.
Let's hope the moonmen have
better luck than the pro football
pickers, particularly after last
week's opening salvo of 4 right,
S wrong and 1 tie sounded like
wet firecracker.
The picks:
National Football League
St. Louis over Green Bay
The blue plate special. Cards'
John David Crow showed he is
healthy again and that adds two
more barrels to St. Louis' al
ready potent attack. Defense
should prove strong enough to
catch Packers down a bit after
easy win over Minnesota, de
spite efforts of halfback Paul
Hornung.
Cleveland over Washington
Browns' duo of Jimmy Brown
and Tom Wilson have added
new dimension to Cleveland's
attack, and passing of quarter
back Jim Ninowski should be
much better than against Giants
last week since 'Skins defense
showed many holes.
New York over Philadelphia
Giants proved too strong of
defense for Eagles in final ex-

Roseburg last week, plays North
Bend. Roseburg will be host to
Springfield.
Beaverton, state runner-up to
Roseburg last year, meets As

high Hanover, a S60.000 gamble

Enforcement
KANSAS CITY Wl College
football's rules makers, coaches
and conference commissioners
Friday started a campaign for
strict enforcement of rules
against rough play to help re
duce injuries.
In a joint statement, the
NCAA football rules committee,
the American Football Coaches
Association and the National
Association of Collegiate Com
missioners called for strict ap
plication of the "use of fore
arm" and "piling on" rules, plus
an education campaign by
coaches to instruct and disci
pline players against rough
play.
H. O. "Fritz" Crislcr, Michi
gan athletic director and chair
man of the NCAA football rules
committee, and William D. Mur
ray, Duke coach and president
of the coaches association, sign
ed the statement.
It referred to i similar plea
several years ago to eliminate
the practice of feigned injuries
and was termed another appeal
to the head coaches to enlist
their full force of influence to
rid our game of inexcusable and
malicious play."
It asked the coaches to pro
tect their players from "bru
tality which will only lead to
tragic incidents and rules
changes none of us will like."
Key Word
In Tariff Bill
Is 'Bargain'
By SAM DAWSON
Of the AssuclaUd Press
NEW YORK The world's
tariff walls won't come tumbling
down overnight. As Congress
puts the finishing touches on a
sweeping grant of powers to the
President to work toward freer
trade, the key word today still
is bargaining.
The President will have pow
er to bargain with the Common
Market and England and Japan.
The goal is to lower, perhaps
abolish in time, their tariffs or
quotas or other restrictions on
the admission of American
goods. In return the bargain
would include similar lowering
of barriers or penalties in this
country on the admission of for
eign goods.
Such bargaining is usually a
long, slow process. It can go on,
industry by industry, item by
item, for many months or even
for years.
Tariffs are only one of the
walls that nations raise against
others' goods. After the war,
most European nations put
strict quotas on the amount of
American goods, item by item,
that could enter. They also im
posed currency restrictions yiat
made it hard or impossible for
an American manufacturer to
get his money back in dollars
or other currencies.
Quotas and currency barriers
have been falling steadily in
recent years. But some still re
main. The United States In turn has
many trade barriers still. These
range from strict quotas and al
lotments on importation of
sugar, to tariffs that can be
raised when domestic manufac
turers show they are being hurt
by foreign imports. This provi
sion, though modified, is still in
the bill.
Also, we have trade agree
ments with some countries
whereby they send only a cer
tain volume of particular prod
ucts, to leave a major percent
age of the market to American
industry.
Both the United States and
the Common Market have plenty
on which to bargain.
What Congress is giving the
President is the power to do
this bargaining, more power
than his predecessors ever had.
The expectation is that the Com
mon Market and others will see
enough advantages to them
selves in freer trade to reach
agreement with the United
States along these lines. If all
sides are the gainers, the result
ing greater economic health of
the non-Communist nations will
weigh heavily in any future con
flict with the Reds.
The very fact that the Presi
dent will have power to make
such deals will make the Com
mon Market more willing to en
ter Into bargaining sessions.
But in every case the special
interest of various American
industries and agriculture will
remain. Many trade barriers,
therefore, may be slow in com
ing down, or may be lowered
only gradually.
The President's triumph In
getting these powers is unques
tioned. But the final bargains
may be some distance away and
far from being a sure bet
either on our side or the Com
mon Market side.
erage car still is driven slightly
less than 1,000 miles per month,
the oil change may be due even
when the accumulated mileage
is quite low.
All of this has caused increas
ing concern to the American
Petroleum Institute. The API
and the auto manufacturers
don't see entirely eye to eye.
On the whole the API is more
conservative.
Not too many years ago the
petroleum industry told you to
change oil every 1,000 miles.
Several years ago this became
every 60 days in summer, every
30 days in winter but never ex
ceeding every 2,000 miles.
The up-to-date API pitch re
tains the 30 and 60 day limits
but has dropped the 2,000 mile
interval in favor of this word
ing: "Never exceed the car
manufacturer's recommendation
for the driving conditions pre
vailing."
The importance of these rec
ommendations by the manufac
turer was brought home recent
ly when Chrysler Corp. ampli
fied its new extended warranty
plan. This covers the engine,
transmission, differential and
rear axle of all 1963 Chrysler
products for five years or 50,000
miles.
In explaining the fine points
of the program, Chrysler vice
president Harry Chesebrough
said the one significant main
tenance operation required of
the car owner to keep the war
ranty in effect was to change
the oil on schedule.
For 1962 the standard inter
val between oil changes was
4,000 miles for all companies
except Ford. Ford recommend
ed 6,000 miles.
For 1963 there is more vari
ation. Chrysler says 4,000 miles
or two months, which might
make it nearer to every 2,000
miles for the average driver.
General Motors has moved gen
erally to 6,000 miles or 60
days. In practice this, too, will
end up being about every 2,000
miles.
American Motors says every
4,000 miles under normally fav
orable conditions. Studcbakcr
recommends the same and Ford
has the longest interval of all
6,000 miles or six months.
One of the major oil com
panies will announce next week
a super premium oil which it
says was formulated especially
to meet these longer service
periods.
Co., also are offering numerous
mechanical and styling changes
for 1963. All models are said to
require major lubrication at in
tervals of 36,000 miles. For the
Meteor series, that's an increase
of 6,000 miles over last year;
for the Comet, it's up from a
1,000-mile interval.
The Meteor features new op
tions and accessories, and better
engine -transmission character
istics. The style of the Comet
has been maintained from last
year, with appearance changes
in grill, rear ornamentation and
taillights. The Meteor shows a
new grill, swept-back taillights
and a wider selection of styles,
colors and materials for inte
riors.
The standard engine for the
Meteor continues to be six cyl
inders, offering 101-horsepower.
It has a new carburetor and new
hydraulic valve lifters. Two
lightweight V-8 engines are
availab'n in the Meteor series
as options.
For the Comci class, two six
cylinder engines both im
proved to run more quietly and
efficiently are offered this
year. An improved carburetor
is designed to make both Comet
engines attain new levels of
smoothness and performance.
Offered in the Comet series
are two-door and four-door se
dans and station wagons in
standard and custom classes;
two convertibles in custom and
S-22 series; an S-22 two-door
sedan, and the Villager station
wagon. Redesigned bucket seats
on the S 22 models have an ad
ditional Vi-inch of foam pad
ding.

REMEMBER HOW MUCH FUN A "GRAB BAG" WAS?
Exciting ! You didn't know if you would draw a really grand present-or some small, silly joke. It's
still great fun for a children's party-but it would be a mighty poor way to pick tonight's dinner
or next year's TV set. In many parts of the world, people still have to shop by grab-bag methods. You
don't. Whether you're buying shoes or ships or sealing wax-you guide yourself by manufacturers'
brand names, widely advertised, comfortably familiar, trustworthy. Brand names let you know
ahead of time the quality you are going to buy-and how much you will get for your money. You're
lucky. You'll find many of America's finest brands advertised right in this newspaper. Buy them
with confidence and save the grab bag for your next children's party.
