Central Point Scene
Of Softball Play-Off
District Commissioner Marc I
Dempster today announced a
change in site for the Wednes
day game in the regional soft
ball play-offs between Central
Point and Bill's of Klamath
Falls.
He said the scrap will occur
at 8:30 p.m. (standard time) on
the turfed high school field at
the Medford high stadium. -
Dempster said that the switch
was made because spikes are not
allowed on the Medford grass.
The Klamath nine has worn
spikes all season and insists on
using them during the series.
A special request to the chool
that spikes be permitted on the
local field during the play-off
was turned down.
Play Tonight . ,
Central Pointj Medford Soft
ball association and District No.
8 champ, and Bill's, District No.
9 winner, open their two-out-of-three
series at 8:30 p.m. (day
light time) at Klamath Falls to
day. Site of a third fracas, if
necessary, Thursday, will be de
termined by a flip of a coin.
Play-off winner goes to the state
meet.
State tourney rivalry begins
on Saturday, August 16, at Mill
City. -
Rest Welcomed
Central Point welcomed rest
Sunday and Monday after play
ing five games last week, two in
the city titular shaughnessy and
three in the district eliminations.
The Pointers won two out of
three hassles from the Grants
Pass Elks .to capture the district
laurels.
There was no further infor
mation late Monday on possible
official protest to state directors
by Grants Pass of the game won
Saturday night by Central Point.
One basis of protest was Grants
Pass claim that Central Point
Chucker Vern Collins had pitch
ed with, tape on a sore finger.
Dempster said he was informed
that Collins had notliurled with
tape on. He was going to apply
the tape, but didn't, in the sixth
inning.
Julius Boros Wins Playoff
For Tam O'Shanter Crown
Chicago U.R) . "How
lucky can one man get?" pro
golfer Julius Boros asked Tues
day. " '
"I win only two tournaments
all year," he added, "and they're
the two big ones."
Boros won prestige in June
when he came home in front in
the National Open Tourney at
Dallas, but Monday he picked
up cold cash on a down payment
and dividend plan, when he
whipped Dr. Cary Middlecoff,
an ex-Memphis dentist, by two
strokes to win Tam O'Shanter's
$75,000 "world" tournament.

Olivar Appointed
Yale Grid Coach
New Haven, Conn. (U.R)
Yale university Tuesday ap
pointed 37-year-old Jordan Ali
var as successor to "lifetime"
football coach Herman Hickman,
but gave him only a one-year
contract as "acting head coach."
Hickman, regarded as one of
the most secure coaches in the
history of the gridiron sport
since his 10-year contract still
had nine years to run, resigned
to accept a job in private busi
ness. The appointment of Olivar
"for the 1952 season" was an
nounced by Yale's Athletic Di
rector, Bob Hall. Olivar, a star
tackle in his collegiate days with
Villanova, has been head coach
at Villanova and Loyola of Los
Angeles where his combined rec
ord showed 50 victories, 31 de
feats, and two ties.
the entire $25,000 first prize,
since he and Middlecoff in a
pre - match deal agreed to split
the profit, including the $12,500
second prize, evenly after pro
vision for taxes.
To add to this $37,500 melon,
they received half of the gate
receipts, $2.00 per head from
about 2,500 spectators.
But Boros, who shot a four-
under-par with a Garrison fin
ish on the last five holes, gained
a cushion for his 1953 tourney
swing, too. He was credited with
the entire $25,000 first prize
to increase his 1952 earnings to
$34,332.97 and virtually guar
antee him top ranking as money
winner this year, an honor which
pays off in appearance money
at $250 per tournament . next
year.
Finishing Driv
Middlecoff, who won the Na
tional Open Crown in 1949, con
trolled their match Monday for
the first 13 holes as he went two
under par and Boros got one
under for the first nine. Then
Boros started his finishing drive
with a two and one half foot
putt for a birdie three on the
14th and that squared the battle.
TO DEFEND CROWN
Washington, D.C. Mason
Kline Jr., San Francisco, Calif.,
surprise winner of the 1951 Na
tional Smallbore Rifle champ
ionship on his home range last
year, will defend his crown at
the National Rifle association's
67th renewal of the champion
ships at Jacksonville, Fla., Aug
ust 21-24. The young Golden
Gate city shooter, now an en
sign in the Navy, will put his
national title on the line against
250 of the nation's best sharp
shooters. A national title rifle
shoot is being held in Florida
for the first time since 1916.
vided Allie Reynolds with all
the help he needed to beat the
Red Sox 7 to 0.
As Reynolds spun a two-hitter
against the Red Sox who haven't
scored on him in Yankee Sta
dium in two years, Mantle deliv
ered his first homer in the first
inning right at the foul pole.
The Red Sox protested it was a
foul ball, but they had nothing
but grudging admiration for the
second smash.' It went to the
back of the right field bull pen
on the fly, 450 feet at least.
Reynolds, who struck out sev
en but walked eight, gained his
14th victory and fifth shutout
and the Yankees went in front
by Wi games once more.
Indians Rained Out
- TJie second place Indians were
rained out of their game with
Detroit, while the Senators top
ped the Athletics 6 to 5 with an
unearned run in the ninth inn
ing, then dropped the second
game 2 to 1 as lefty Alex Kell
ner pitched seven-hit ball ' to
gain his ninth victory. The
Browns and "White Sox also
were rained out. ,
In the National League, the
Dodgers took their biggest lead
of the season, moving nine full
games ahead of the Giants by
splitting with the Phils while
New York lost a pair to Boston
11 to 10 and 4 to 2. .
The Phils were 7 to 2 victors
as Robin Roberts won his 18th
game and his seventh in a row
in the opener, but Brooklyn re
bounded to take the second
game 9 to 5 with a home run
spree in the sixth inning. The
Cubs slamme'd down the Cards
10 to 2, and the Reds topped the
Pirates 10 to 4 in other National
League games.

In Coming Season
Washington (U.R) Director
Albert W. Day of tne Flsh and
Wildlife Service said Tuesday

bird targets during the 1952-53
hunting season than a year ago.
