TWELVE MEDFORD (OREGON)
Big League
To Kansas
By FRED DOWN
United Press Sports Writer
Kansas City takes over the
center of the baseball stage
from President Eisenhower to
day as the major league pennant
races swing into high gear.
Weather permitting, the cur
tain goes up on the 1955 cam
paign in eight cities with the
New York Giants beginning the
defense of their world champ
ionship in Philadelphia and the
American league champion the
Cleveland Indians, playing host
to the Chicago White Sox.
Crowds totaling 300,000 are an
ticipated with a top of 50,000
expected at Cleveland.
The Detroit Tigers supply the
opposition as Kansas City offic
ially makes its debut as a big
league city, Boston is at Balti
more and Washington at N e w
York in other American league
openers. In the National league,
it's Pittsburgh at Brooklyn, Cin
cinnati at Milwaukee and St.
Louis at Chicago.
Harry Still Pilchin
There ll be gala festivities all
along the line but nowhere will
city pride be at a higher peak
than in Kansas City. A capacity
crowd of 36,000 will jam the
new park and Harry Truman,
a former president who keeps
Y,a hninoranhers guessing be
cause he's ambidextrous, will
handle the first pitch.
Following Mr. Truman's toss,
Manager Lou Boudreau will
send lefthander Alex Kellner to
the mound against Detroit's Ned
Garver. Kellner had a 6-17 rec
ord last season while Garver's
mark was 14-11.
The Indians, who won an A.L.
record of 111 games last season,
are sending 23-game winner Bob
Lemon against 19-game winner
Virgil Trucks of the White Sox;
towering Frank Sullivan, a 15
game winner in 1954, pitches
for the Red Sox against Joe
Coleman (13-17) of the Orioles
and Mickey McDermott (7-15) is
the Senators' nominee against
the Yankees 16-game winner,
Whitey Ford.
Antonelli Duels Roberts
Southpaw Johnny Antonelli,
who won 21 games last year,
toes the mound for the Giants
against the crippled Phillies,
who are countering with 23
game winner Roberts. Max Sur
kont (9-18) opposes Carl Erskine
(18-15) in the Pittsburgh-Brooklyn
opener; Gerry Staley (7-13),
of the Redlegs faces Milwaukee's
21-game winner Warren Spahn
and Brooks ' Lawrence, 15-game
winner of the St. Louis Cards
pitches against Paul Minner (11
11) of the Cubs in N.L. openers.
With a former president, sev
eral governors and mayors on
hand, there are plenty of poten
tial showstoppers but it isn't
likely that there'll be one to
match the inaugural perform
ance turned in by the sore-armed
Mr. Eisenhower Monday.
Mr. Eisenhower played his
part like an "old pro" as the
Washington Senators scored a
12-5 victory over the Baltimore
Orioles.
Porterfield Wins First
Bob Porterfield "treated the
President to some first class
pitching, holding the Orioles to
six hits and yielding only two
earned runs. Lou Kretlow, Paul
Richards' surprise nomination,
suffered the defeat.
Rookie catcher Harry Chiti
and A. L. Castoff pitcher Sam

Corvallis (U.R) Coach Tom

Portland Hurler
Among Leaders
. San Francisco (U.R) Five
pitchers won two games each
during the first week of com
petition in the Pacific Coast
League to share hurling honors,
but rookie Joe Kirrene of the
San Francisco Seals stole the
honors in the batting depart
ment. Kirrene cracked out 15 hits in
30 trips to the plate" to rack up
a .500 average for the first eight
games of the season.'
The pitchers with two wins,
no losses are: Bud Daley, Sacra
mento: Vic Lombardi, Seattle;
Bob Hall, Portland; George
Bamberger, Oakland; Theolic
Smith. San Diego and John Old
ham, Seattle.
Fanfare
After Medford high's victory
in the Rogue Valley relays last
week end, the question is: What
are the Black Tornado's chances
next Saturday in the Hayward
relays in Eugene?
The trouble in seeking the an
swer is that there is very little
to go by. There r.iay have been
more relay meets about the state
last week but results of only
two, in addition to the Rogue
scrap, are available. They are
the Portland Interscholastic
League and the Corvallis relays.
Only the PIL results can be
used for detailed comparison.
Of entries in the Corvallis meet
only the host Spartans them
selves may be in Hayward
metropolitan division with Med
ford. The others will compete in
the A class along with Crater,
Ashland and Marshfield who
were Rogue entries.
BETTER IN FIVE
Of the eight events which
Medford won last Saturday,
the Black Tornado had better
marks in five than the vicior
in the corresponding PIL
event. The Portland winner in
one of the eight events had a
better time than Medford's.
Javelin and discus, won here
by Medford, were not thrown
in the Portland meet.
Here are the comparisons:
Two -mile Medford 8:27.4;
Lincoln 8:30.5. Shuttle hur
les Medford :35.2; Grant
:35.2. Mile Medford 3:29.9;
Grant 3:32. Broad jump Med
ford 58 feet Va inch; Jeffer
son 55-10 3-8. Pole vault
Breazeale, Medford, 12V;
Hardin, Lincoln, and Kelly,
Jefferson, 10-6. In the 880
yarder Roosevelt 1:32.5;
Medford 1:33.8.
According to the results
listed in a Portland paper,
schools in the big city bettered
Rogue performances in four
other events with Roosevelt's
:44.7 in the 440 romp. Grant's
16-9. in the high jump, Jeff's
135-5 in . the shot put and
Grant's 11:08 in the distance
medley. Unless the distance
varied, this column is inclined
to question the 11:08 time.
Grants Pass ran the corres
ponding Rogue race in 11:29.1.
Rogue record in the competi
tion is 11:20 set by Medford
last year.
SHOULD BE MORE FORCE
Portland schools should be
more a force in the Hayward's
this year. Not only did the top
two PIL finishers in each event
earn their ways to the Eugene
meet but relay teams which per
formed up to certain pre-meet
standards also will get to make
the jaunt. That means more
Olson Set
For Match
With Maxim
San Francisco (U.R) Carl
(Bobo) Olson, the world middle
weight champion,, takes the first
step in major new campaign to
gain gold and glory Wednesday
when he tangles with former
world light -' heavyweight title
holder Joey Maxim.
Olson has no qualms about
placing his 20-fight win streak
on the line. All he is thinking
about is what comes next.
Want Title Shot
"After we beat Maxim," says
his confident manager, Sid Fla
herty, "we hope to get a shot at
the light - heavyweight crown
worn by Archie Moore. After
that, maybe they'll consider us
for a shot at Rocky Marciano's
heavyweight title."
With such ambitious plans, Ol
son claims he is in the best
shape of his career for the Max
im bout, which is slated for only
10 rounds but which already 'is
assured of breaking the "take"
for a non-title fight in the West.
It will be televised nationally.
A crowd of between 10,000
and 15,000 is expected to be in
the Cow Palace for the big bat
tle. And they'll pay well . over
$100,000 for the privilege of
watching the two fine artists in
action.
Spokane Indians
Top College Nines
Clarkston, Wash. (U.R) The
Spokane Indians of the class B

The Indians defeated the Port

OUTLOOK HOPEFUL
As this department sees it,
Medford's chances of defending

discouraging. With the Black
Tornado's high morale, the sit

Medford thinclads have shaken

MEDFORDITES AID OREGON
Ex-Medfordites in school at
University of Oregon figured
in victories for their teams
again this week. In a triangu
lar meet with Lewis and Clark
and Seattle Pacific colleges.
Jack Moad won the shot put
with a 47-2 effort and Ed
Bingham cast the javelin 187

land and three teammates lied
for second in the pole vault..
Their height was not listed.
Jack Morris won the 100

for the Oregon Frosh in a
meet against Eugene high. He
and Burt Williams were on
the winning relay team. Norm
Chapman won tha javelin.
Stan Kala'pus won his singles
tennis match for the Ducklings
against Springfield and teamed
with Marvin Woods, ex-Ash-land,
for a doubles victory.
Terry Maddox threw a one

against Willamette university,
walking two and hitting one

RUNS IN FAMILY
Last week this column men
tioned the brother pole vaulters,
Lew and Don Breazeale, report
ing that, while Lew goes to Med
ford high, Don attends Crater.
Now Coach Jack Woodward of
Phoenix points out that his
vaulter, Delmar Brood, is a
cousin of the Breazeale's. Vault
ers appear to run in the family.
TO GO ALONG
Jackson County B high
school coaches voted at a
meeting Saturday to go along
with the A schools in accept
ance or rejection pf a com
mission set-up for assigning
athletic game arbiters. Class
A schools of the area reported
ly are to consider the matter
on May 14 at the district track
meet at Ashland. The Bs
voted to hold a basketball
jamboree next December 3
and adopted a home and home
round slate again for the 1956
season with a slight change in
the order of opposition.
HOW BIG? ,
Semi-pro or near-pro baseball
situation for the Coos Bay-North
Bend communities was still un
settled after sessions last week
and meetings are slated this
week. The fold up of the Coos
Bay Lumberjacks, independent
team last summer and previous
ly a member of the now defunct
Southwestern Oregon League,
has caused the discussions. Base
ball leaders are mulling the mat
ter of how "big" to be. One pos
sibility talked is going along
with the three ex-pros limit and
seeking admission to the South
ern Oregon League.
When Phoenix defeated
Illinois Valley in a Rogue
League baseball contest 2
to 1 last Friday, IV Pitch
er Jim Eggers, the loser,
was credited with a no-hit
game in his school's ; score
book. However, the score
sheet of the Pirates had Phoe
nix down for six hits. That's
considerable d i s agreement.
The Phoenix report of the
game listed one error for the
Pirates and three for the Cou
gars . while the IV book
showed three for Phoenix and
five for Illinois Valley. Both
books : agreed that Phoenix
Pitcher Bill. Madden yielded
only two hits.
An Illinois Valley report of
the game to the Grants Pass
Courier tells how the Cougars
muffed a chance to tie the
score in the last frame. Lee
Carothers got to third on a
stolen base and wild pitch
after being hit by one of Mad
den's throws. Carothers
dashed for home on a squeexe
play but turned and ran back
to third when he saw batsman
George Harrison miss the ball
on the bunt try. What the run
ner failed to notice was ihat
Phoenix Catcher Riley Bean
also missed the ball and 'that
he could have scored. Caro
thers was still on third when
the side was retired.
