By CARL LUNDQUIST New York (U,R) Joe Black of the Brooklyn Dodgers and Harry Byrd of the Philadelphia Athle tics, two giant kid pitchers with the physique and determination of mules, were named the Major League rookies of the year Friday, Black, who won 15 games and save 15 more while losing only four as the greatest relief pitcher the history of the Dodgers, gained the National League award in a breeze. He got 19 out of the 24 baseball writers' votes. But Byrd barely won out in the American in a close three way battle. He received nine votes to eight for catcher Clint Courtney of the St. Louis Browns and seven for catcher Sammy White of the Boston Red Sox. The Black-Byrd combination on rookies completed a resur gence in major league pitching this season. Hurlers won three of the four capital awards and just missed out on the other. Black came close to an unpre cedented dual honor of being named both the Most Valuable Player and the Rookie of the Year. There were impressive sta tistics to back up his support, too. He and Byrd started slowly and were at their peak down the stretch. Black set two Dod ger elub records for relief hurlers. He worked in 56 games, topping the old mark of 54 set by Les Webber in war-time 1943, He finished 41, erasing the mark of 37 set by the late Hugh Casey in 1947. But is was in the month-by-month breakdown where he showed up the best. He didn't work an inning in April, in only six games in May he worked 12 innings. In 12 June appear ances he worked 21 innings and in 14 July show-ups from the bull pen he worked 26 in nings. Then came the hot stretch where the Dodgers finally out distanced the Giants. In 13 Aug ust appearances he worked 36 innings and in September he toiled 45 innings in 11 games. Then he topped that by starting three World Series games when Dressen's other throwers were n't adequate for the big job against the Yankees. Byrd also was just another hand in the Philadelphia pitch ing picture at the start. After going 0-3 in the early season mop-up jobs, Byrd won his first two starts and thereafter was a regular man in the A's pitching rotation. He hit the .500 mark on Au gust 7 and wound up with 15-15 record for the season. He could easily have had a 17-13 mark, but for two tough defeats suffered in the final week, 1-0 on a questionable decision by Umpire Ed Hurley, and 5-2 in 11 innings. Byrd turned in three shutouts and pitched 16 complete games, striking out 115 batters and walking only 96. LOCAL -k UNITED PRESS ASSOCIATED PRESS NEWS AND FEATURES Salem, Oregon, Friday, November 21, 1952 Page 11 Marshfield Gets Portland Test' in Playoffs Tonight (By The Associated Press) Marshfield, generally consid ered the best high school foot ball team in the state, gets the Portland test Friday, night. The Portland test in this case is Benson, a team which started the season in desultory fashion, then suddenly came alive and won five consecutive games to get into the state playoffs. Annually Portland teams, toughened in the competitive eity league, prove the sternest of competitors in the playoffs. Grant of Portland has won championships five times. Up state teams have won four one of them awarded to Grants Pass on the basis of first downs after playing Grant to a tie last year. Only once has a Portland team failed to reach the finals. If Marshfield, rated No. 1 in the state in the Associated Press poll, gets by Benson it still will have to face another Portland team in the final round. , .Two . other - Portland teams have won their way to the semi finals. They are Central Catholic and Jefferson, who will clash Saturday night for the right to meet the winner of the Marsh-field-Benson game. Marshfield, winner of 10 straight games this season, most ly because of an ability to gather strength and come from behind in the second half, will have the advantage of playing on its home field.

(AP Wlrephoto) Sola Declares Dressing Room Fumes Doped Him Sail Francisco W) Lee Sala, knocked out In the second round by Carl (Bobo) Olson, declared Friday he was made "dopey by gas fumes In my dressing room" before Thursday night's top flight middleweight bout. Sala's manager, Bunny Bun- tag, telephoned the Associated Press that he would lodge a pro test with both the California Boxing Managers Association and the parent International Boxing Guild. "I definitely say my lighter was made dopey by gas fumes," Buntar declared. He asserted the California Boxing Commission should in vestigate but didn't say he would file a protest with it. Olson's victory in 2:12 of the second round had established him as foremost contender for Sugar Ray Robinson's world middleweight title. He and Sala, of Donora, Pa., were the two top challengers. Buntag said both he and Sala smelled gas in Sala's dressing room before the fight, but a policeman and an auditorium employe to whom he appealed said they couldn't smell the fumes. The fight was at Winterland, which is used for boxing, wrest ling, basketball, ice skating and other sports. It has its own ice making setup. Olson, 23 -year -old ringman flattendcd the Pennsylvania boy for the full count with a right to the jaw. The knockout came in 2:12 of the second. Sala had u;i th n..n ni:AM iM iuH same round for a nine-count. He I "mity. went down that time from a right to the side of the face fol lowed by a whizzing left hook to the chin. They weighed in at an identi cal 163 pounds. Marion County B Coaches Meet With Officials Relations between schools and basketball officials came in for a major share of the dis cussion at last nights meeting ol the Marion county B league coaches and principals at Ore gon School for the Deaf. Seven members of the Salem Officials association were on hand for the meeting. They were president Bill Beard, Don Vandervort, Frank Albright, Jack Barsch, Allen Lee, Pete Bigler, Bob Warren and Al Lightner. Plans for the league jambo ree December 8 at Jefferson were formed. Jamboree pairings pit Sub limity versus Gervais, Mill City vs. OSD, Gales vs. Scio, St. Paul vs. Jefferson and Chemawa vs. Detroit. Each game will be for 10 minutes. Bill Patterson, football and baseball coach at Gervais, waB directed to draw up a 1953 Marion county B league foot ball schedule, subject to appro val of other schools. The next league meeting will be conducted January IB at Drain has piled up one of the most impressive records in th. state with 10 straight wins. (Jefferson has won seven and lost one.) In Jim Whipple, Drain boasts an ultra-dangerous passer. Whip ple tossed five touchdown passes last week as Drain swept to a 52-14 triumph over Monroe. Drain will outweigh Jefferson. and also hold an advantage In speed. Drain averages around 190 pounds per man, and has a lot of speed to back up the beef. Graham has been drilling his Jeffmen in pass defense, in an attempt to stop the dangerous aerials of Whipple, and keep Dick Joslyn, Whipple's favor ite receiver, bottled up. On offense, Graham's crew will rely on straight power plays a difficult task against a team with so much bulk as Drain. Two Key Cougars Remain at Home Pullman, Wash. tfP) Two key players remained on the cam pus Friday as the Washington State football team flew east to Stillwater, Okla., for Saturday's game with Oklahoma A & M. Qualerback Bob Burkhart, who threw 15 touchdown passes for the Cougars last season, and End Don Steinbrunner, the team captain, were left off the traveling list because of injur ies.
