during their working hours, young Mickey Mantle, Yankee slugger,
prefers the less strenuous job of chewing bubble gum. Mantlt
surprised fans at Yankee Stadium during White Sox game by
popping bubbles. Kind of dangerous for a centerfielder if sodden
pop fly should come his way.
Hardtop Auto Races Here
Today; Point Race Close
Hardtop racing starts its Sun
day afternoon shows at the Jacx
son County Speedway in Med
ford this afternoon.
With the end of the current
season drawing to a close, point
leaders will be hard pressed to
keep their top positions. Bemie
Miller in M6 will have to keep
his speedy mount in the front
row all afternoon if he is to hang
onto his number one spot.
Cecil James, M9, is only seven
points behind and Jack McCoy
is right behind Cecil so there
will be plenty of hard, fast driv
ing this afternoon. Barreling
Bobby Wilcox says he isn't sat
isfied with fourth place but in
tends to climb on up and Elmer
Sisemore figures that he belongs
t the top, too.
There's only one number one
position and the track may be
a little crowded if everyone tries
to get in that spot.
Honorary President Bud
Beachwood is expected to com
pete for the first time on the
Jackson County speedway today,
and will no doubt be a formida
ble contender. Bud has been
watching the boys in Yakima,
Wash., do their stuff on a mile
and an eighth track and has
some ideas about speed on this
one.
Speed, spills and thrills will
be on the program this after
noon at the speedway located at
the Posse grounds and there mayl
be some new track records when
the sun finally goes down on the
Rogue valley.

New York (UJ- Little Phil
Rizzuto, the sparkplug of the
New York Yankees, peered
hesitantly into the future today
and asserted that the Brooklyn
Dodgers will be tougher to beat
in the 1953 World Series than
they were in last year's full
seven-game battle.
"Understand, I'm not claiming
the pennant yet," : the scooter
insisted cautiously. .nThis is all
'if because I don't want to put
the, jinx on us."
But, "if the Yankeets and
Dodgers do square off in the
World Series, the little short
stop who already has played in
seven of the baseball classic has
nothing but respect for the
Dodgers
Tough Barters
"I saw them in four game
over the Labor Day weekend,
when I was sent home from St,
Louis because of heat prostra
tion," Rizzuto explaintd,rMand
that lineup is murder.
"They will be tougher than
last year, too, because they have
more confidence, ha added.
"They have better pitching and
they are hitting well, and that
batting lineup, phew! Any one
of them, all the way down the
batting order, can put it out of
the park."
Strangely enough, the scooter
is rooting for the Dodgers to
walk off with the National
League flag as quickly as pos
sible. 4
May Be Cocky
"I hope they win every game,

Eagle Point
Romps 39-0
On Glendale
Eagle Point Eagle Point
high bounced a ragged Glendale
football club 39 to 0 here on Fri
day in the first prep fray of the
season in Jackson county.
It was a JDJ League hassle
and marked the debut of Glen
dale into the small Class A
school circuit.
The Eagles struck for one
touchdown in the first quarter,
two in the second one in the
third and two in the fourth. Two
Eagle Point jaunts to the end
zone were nullified in the open
ing canto by penalties. . ,
End Frank Reich was on the
receiving end of three touch
down pass plays.. The first was
on the opening scrimmage play
of the game. Reich took a sleep
er pass from Charles Eccleston
and ran down the sideline The
pass and run was good for 57
yards. The conversion buck
failed.
Masoa Intercepts
A 55-yard drive wound up in
another touchdown for the
Eagles in the second stanza. The
pay-off was another Eccleston
to Reich aerial good for 19
yards. A pass conversion try was
incomplete and the count was 12
to 0. Eagle Point's Eldon Mason
intercepted a pass on the Glen
dale 30 and romped to the one-
foot mark. The next play lost
ground. Then, Wayne Gillaspey
punched across the goal and
bucked the extra point try. Half
time score was 19 to 0.
A Gillaspey to Reich pass
gained 77 yards and third period
TD. Jack Greb booted the extra
counter and Eagle Point's mar
gin was 26 to 0. John Fox
plunged one yard for a fourth
quarter score but ' Greb's kick
failed. The concluding TD re
suited from a bad Glendale cen
ter snap. John Bunker scooped
up the ball on the 18 yard stripe
and went all the way. Eccleston
converted.
Back Bob Stewart was lost to
the Eagle Point team in the first
quarter when fie suffered a bro
ken leg. Back Gene Eccleston
was also disabled in the first
quarter and was unable to re
turn to the Eagle line-up.
HOT ROD RECORDS SET
Wendover, Utah U.R Mai
Hooper, Los Angeles hot rod en
thusiast, has six new interna
tional Class C speed records, aft
er putting his hand built stream
liner through its paces on Bon
neville Salt ,Flats. He sped
through the speed traps at 236.36
miles per hour for a new record
in the one mile flying start, top
ping the previous record by
nearly nine miles per hour. Oth
er records he set are: 235.87 mph
for the five kilometer run;
232.58 mph for the five mile;
231.95 mph for the 10 kilometer.
and 215.97 mph for the 10 mile
run.
That probably would put them
into the series as the favorites
and maybe they'd get a little
cocky."
Little Phil knows how dis
astrous that can be, because
that's what happened - to the
1942 Yankees when they were
beaten by the Cardinals,
"That's the only answer to us
losing that 1943 series," he re
flected. "We won the pennant
by a big margin and we simply
relaxed. We thought we had the
Cards beaten and then 'boom'
We looked up one day and the
series was over and the Cardi
nals had wen it."
Going Easy
The Yankees today are what
you might call a relaxed ball
club- There is a lot of light-
hearted joshing in the locker
room and good natured ribbing
during pre-game practice. But
once the game starts, the Yanks
look like a lot of hungry ball
players.
"I'm a worrier," Rizzuto ex
plained. "I feel good now and
everything is going fine, but I'm
the kind who worries because
things are going too good. That's
the way with this ball club. We
won't consider we have this
pennant until it's locked up."

in the -world, Saturday shatter
stock cars, regardless of engine
ed every existing record for
size.
The car sent three establish
ed records tumbling, and also
broke six U.S. National records
at the fifth annual Bonneville
National speed trials.
The- records were 108.7620
mph for 10 miles after taking
a flying start, and 109.1727 mph
for 10 kilometers.
Thursday, Healey drove the
car to a new measured mile
speed record for production
cars of 142.638 mph. The Brit
ish driver said it was only by
accident that he set the measur
ed mile record. American Auto
mobile association timers were
checking their equipment and
decided to clock Healey. It was
found he had averaged more
than a mile better than the pre
vious flying mile record for pro
duction autos.
On Monday, Healey will un
dertake the first of two 24-hour
assaults on international and
America records for stock and
sports cars in a dawn-to-dawn
run.
