Stan Musial
Surges Up in
Batting Race
New York (U.R) Stan (The
Man) Musial has finally found
his batting eye.
The St. Louis Cardinals' veter
an outfielder got off to one of
the slowest starts of his long ca
reer this season, but picked up
almost 40 points during the past
week to move into third place in
the National league batting race.
Jackie Robinson of the Brook
lyn Dodgers remained the lead
er for the fourth straight week
with a .353 mark, while Del En
nis of the Philadelphia Phillies
moved into second place at .342
Then came Musial at .339.
Musial, a five-time winner of
the National league batting
crown, started his bid for anoth
er championship during the Car
dinals' recent swing through the
East. He bashed out 10 hits in
his last 19 trips to the plate, in-
eluding Thursday's game against
the Giants.
Mitchell Ltads
In the American league, out
fielder Dale Mitchell of the
Cleveland Indians led the field
for the second straight week
.with a .361 average, while Dom
DiMaggio of the Red Sox, who
is nursing a sore leg, took over
second place with a .343 mark.
George Kell of the Tigers
vaulted into third place with a
.340 average; Phil Rizzuto, of
the Yankees, last week's runner
up, dropped to fourth with a
.339 mark, and Gene Woodling
of the Yankees slipped into fifth
with a .333 average.
Righthander Sal Maglie of
the Giants topped the Natibnal
league's pitchers with a record
of seven victories and no defeats,
while Connie Marrero of the
Senators headed the American
league list with a 4-0 record.
Officials Give
Explanation for
Tourney Drawing
Albany (U.R) Widespread
misunderstanding and some bit
terness was reported Saturday
among teams at the state baseball
tournament here over drawings
for team placings.
Tournament officials said in
correct reports about placings
were published before the event
opened and that resentment was
created when the reported pro
cedure was not folowed.
Tom Pigott and Oden Hawes
of the Oregon School Activities
association explained that the
team drawings for positionin the
tournament were as old as the
tournament itself.
Anti-Climactic
The reason for the drawing
originally, they explained, was
that it would be anti-climactic to
have the Portland teams play
each other in opening games
when one had already defeated
the other in regular season play.
Another reason for the draw
ing was to save the schools the
expense of scouting known op
ponents. When this year s draw
ing was made Albany was seed
ed eighth for financial reasons
and the other seven schools drew
for positions, the officials said.
The two officials said the sys-
team had been approved by the
Oregon High School Coaches
association which also recom
mended that the same system be
used for basketball playoffs and
that the drawing be made one
week prior to the start of the
playoffs.
If the pairings originally an
nounced had been adhered to,
Medford high would have met
Junction City In Its first game
of the state tournament instead
of The Dalles. Junction City
proved to be the weak team of
the tournament and bowed out
in the first round to Albany
Medford lost 2 to 1 to The Dalles
on Thursday.

OSC 18 to 5
Eugene (U.R) Oregon State
college Saturday used four
pitchers, three of them in the
seventh Inning, in an unsuccess
ful attempt to stem a fierce scor
ing attack that gave the Univer
sity of Oregon an 18 to 5 Nor
thern division baseball victory
over OSC.
In a 10-run scoring spree in
the seventh inning, Oregon sent
14 batters against three Beaver
pitchers who gave up four walks,
hit two batsmen and allowed
four hits. One of those was a
double by Earl Averill who also
had a homer in the 8th.
Lcftfielder Jim Livesay and
Catcher Norv Ritchcy of Oregon
each got three hits of the total
of 16 that Oregon State pitchers
gave up. Winning pitcher was
Bill Mays, a righthander.,
If Oregon State had won the
wild fracas, it would have clin
ched the Northern division title.
As the division stands now,
Washington could grab the top
spot if it beats Idaho Monday and
Tuesday in games scheduled at
Moscow.
