Split 'V System
To Guide All-Star
Gridders Friday
Chicago, Aug. 12 VP) The
tricky split-T formation, which
is another way of saying Bud
Wilkinson, will be the principal
weapon of the College All-stars
when they take on the Philadel
phia Eagles tonight.
Wilkinson, head coach of the
All-stars, used the split-T in
piloting his University of Okla
homa team to a Eig Seven con
Terence football championship
and a Sugar Bowl victory over
North Carolina last season.
The 16th annual Collegiate
Pro game, for the righteous
cause of charity, is expected to
!Utract 90,000 customers to
mammoth Soldier Field on Chi
cago's lake front. The pros have
an edge of eight victories to five
since the series was started in
1034.
In support of the basic
split-T offense, Wilkinson
was expected to give such
great passers as Notre Dame's
Frank Tripucka, Michigan's
Pete Elliott, Oklahoma's Jack
Mitchell, and Oregon's Nor
man Van Brocklin a fairly
free hand in their specialty.
Coach Greasy Ncals brought
his Eagles to Chicago Thursday
from their month-long training
session at Grand Rapids, Minn.
Legion Juniors
Open District
Heats on Friday
Portland, Aug. 12 VP) Five
teams towed the line today for
the opening of the regional
American Legion junior base
ball tournament this after
noon. Bremerton, Washing ton
State titlist, and Lewiston,
the Idaho champion, were
paired in the first game (2:30
p.m. PDT).
A night doublehcadcr (6:30
p.m., PDT) pairs Hillsboro,
Ore., and Butte, Mont., with
Waipahu, T.H., meeting the
winner of the Brcmcrton-Lcw-iston
title in the night's fi
nale. Walter Johnson pitched 113
shutouts for the Washington
Senators during his career for
the major league record.
Don't Worry!
By
. By J. H. WILLETT
ol Ibr Capllftl Drug Str
There should be a hea''h
campaign against worry, for it
is one of the most prevalent dis
eases. The damage it does to
both mind and body is not
measurable.
Worry has never solved one
single probleml More often it
merely takes energy that is
needed for the action that will
set things right.
This is especially true in the
matter of health. If you wilL
consult your doctor he can tell
you if anything is wrong and
help you to correct it. By plac
ing your health care in such
capable hands, your mind will
be free to help your body get
well.

SPORTS ROUNDUP
Los Angeles Has Salemitis, Too
Los Angeles, Aug. 12 VP)
Hey Mr. Wrigley:
A lot of loyal Chicago Cubs
fans out this way are doing a
lot of head scratching these
days. They're having trouble
trying to figure out why the
Cubs, last place in the. National
league, continue to peddle the
best players from Los Angeles,
last place in the Pacific Coast
league.
While both Cubs and An
gels wallow deeper in the cel
lar, the parent club has
brought up only one player,
second baseman Wayne Tcr
williger, who was playing his
first year of AAA ball.
Meanwhile the Cub front of
fice, apparently with the sanc
tion of Owner P. K. Wrigley,
has sold two hard-hitting vet
erans, Catcher Eddie Malone and
Third Sacker Johnny Ostrow-
ski, to the crosstown White Sox,
and disposed of other veteran
Angels to assorted minor league
clubs.
Obviously it's a youth move
ment ot sorts; although you'd
have a tough time selling An
gel fans on that one. They had
to look at Fat Pat Seerey mak
ing four errors in left field one
night before he departed for
Kansas City and points east.
Oh, yes, Mr. Wrigley, your
Angels who usually lead the
league in attendance are a
feeble seventh at the turn
stiles this year.
And, as one fan put it re
cently:
"I'm expecting the Cubs to
sell Clarence Maddern (best
remaining hitter) any day
now. When that happens I'm
not even going to watch the
Angels on television."
Could be that Mr. Wrigley
and other PCL owners are play
ing a new game of sweetness
and light. It's been a long time
since so many coast leaguers
have been sold upstairs in mid-
season.
Sacramento sent Al Benton to
Cleveland; Seattle, Sammy
White to Boston Red Sox (Louis
ville); San Francisco, Dino Res-
telli to Pittsburgh; and Oakland.
Lloyd Hittle to Washington and
George Metkovich to the White
Sox.
Where do you think that

land and his plea for major
league status?
Early grid dopesters rate
Southern California and Stan
ford likeliest to succeed to Cali
fornia's coast conference crown.
Most experts think the Bears
can't repeat without Jackie Jen
sen. UCLA, with an all-new south
ern coaching staff headed by
Red Sanders, is expected to fin
ish in the southern half of the
standing again. But the Bruins
probably will have some of that
rebel spirit.
The wags now are waiting for
the Bruin rooting section to
break out with: "Come on
UCLA, You All!"
Both pro .coaches here
abouts, Jimmy Phelan of the
all-American Dons and Clark
Shanghnessy of the NFL
Rams, have been sounding off
about a sudden .influx of
speedy halfbacks. Both have
visions of having something
more to go on respectively
than the passing of Glenn
Dobbs, and Bob Waterfield or
Jim Hardy.
But pro grids these days are

Padre Boss Says
Easter Will Give
Indians Punch
Cleveland, Aug. 12 CP) Can
the newest Cleveland Indian,
Luscious (Luke) Easter, pro
vide the long ball punch the
Tribe needs to overtake the
New York Yankees?
The man for whom Lnke
played first base with the San
Diego Padres thinks he can.
Bill Starr, San Diego presi
dent, watched the big Negro
slugger make his first appear
ance here last night as a pinch
hitter in the 12-inning tussle
Cleveland won from Chicago's
White Sox 6-5.
"We hate to lose him," said
Starr, "but he's a big league
hitter.
Last night was Easter's first
time in play since June 19
when he left San Diego.
The fans buzzed as the six
foot, four-inch 240-pounder
took his stance at the left side
of the plate facing Chico Pier
etti, who at five-seven is one
of the league's smallest hurl
ers. Bob Kennedy was on third
base, there was one out and
the score was tied 5-5. A
called strike, three balls, a
foul, then Luke rapped the
ball right at shortstop Luke
appling for a ground out
while Kennedy held third.
This failed to dampen Eas
ter's elation at becoming an
Indian. After the game, he
said happily:
"It really feels good to be
