Portland Sid Gillman, one
nt tha "winninffMt" rnaphea of
moderh football, makes his pro
fessional coacning aeDut wnen
h Mndi the Los Angeles Rams
against the Pittsburgh Steelers
here at Multnomah suaium Aug
tut 6. .
Oillman was aimed by the
Rams last spring after compiling
the second highest winmng per
Mntiu imnni maior college
coaches He was recommended
by Frank Leahy, former Notre
Dame coach. The amazing Gill
man has never had a losing sea
son as a head coach.
Gillman won all Big Ten hon
ors and All-American mention at
Ohio State from 1931-1933. He
played with the college all-stars
in the first pro-all star game in
Chicago and also played in the
East-West game. He played pro
ball with the Cleveland Rams,
forerunner of the LA club, in
193S.
Great Record
He served as an assistant coach
at Ohio colleges until 1943, when
he became head coach at Miami
of Ohio, compiling a four-year
Mimi r, ii urin. It losses and 1
tie. In 1948 he assisted Earl
Blaik at Army, then moved to
Cincinnati, where in six seasons
his record was 50-1-1, losing only
a single game in three of five
years. This great record attract
ed the attention of the pros and
the Rams signed him and a new
staff of assistants.
Gillman's offense follows the
traditional pro pattern of "pass-screen-trap,"
only with the Rams
he will have some of the greatest
players in the game to make it
work.
The Rams are currently in the
throes of their training grind in
the heat of Redlands, Calif., a
place calculated to get any group
of athletes into condition. Norm
Van Brocklin, when once asked
the toughest job he ever faced
with the Rams, replied "getting
out of Redlands alive."
The game between the Rams
and Steelers will be a nocturnal
affair, starting at 8:30 o'clock, as
will the game Sunday night,
August 28 between the Rams and
New York Giants.
The complete' tabulations of a
federal census are generally not
available until from three to
five years after the data has

A thoroughly dejected Charley
Grimm found only one straw to
clutch at today when he evalu
ated his Milwaukee Braves!
chances of overtaking the Brook
lyn Dodgers in . the National
League pennant race..
"I managed the Chicago Cubs
in 1935 wnen xney won i
straight games to close out the
cMin " Grimm said alter tne
Braves' disheartening 6-5 loss to
th New York Giants Monday
niffht. "That's the only way I can
figure it now you're only out
when they count '10' over you
r.rimm. who was under fire
himself for his third-base coach
ing in Monday night's sloppy
scramble of so-called contenders,
nondered a moment and then
added: "If we were right, we'd
have swept the series with the
Giants."
As it was, the split of the four
game series left both teams with
out a reasonable argument for
believing they could catch the
Dodgers who, incidentally,
bowed to the Cincinnati Redlegs,
9-5, Monday night.
Cubs' Losses Mount :
To make matters even more
rosy for the Dodgers, the pseudo
contender Cubs' losing streak
mounted to eight games when
they were defeated, 8-6 and 2-1,
by the Philadelphia Phillies. The
first game was the completion
of Sunday's suspended contest
in. which the Cubs led, 5-4rin
the sixth while' the second was
a regularly scheduled contest in
which Herman Wehmeier out
dueled Warren Hacker, 2-1.
Center-fielder Bill Bruton's
muff of Willie Mays' 410-foot fly
with two out in the seventh in
ning permitted Alvin Dark and
Whitey Lockman to score with
two unearned runs that gave the
Giants Monday night's victory.
Don Liddle received credit for
his third win while Warren
Spahn suffered his 10th loss.
Grimm, Milwaukee's third
base coach, was under fire for
failing to send Del Crandall, who
had tripled, in to the plate in the
ton of the seventh when Spahn
flied to Mays for the first out.
Grimm held up Crandall and
Mays' throw was far off the plate
althoueh very strong.
Pinch-hitter Glen Gorbour
three-run homer enabled the
Phillies to rally for five runs
and win their suspended game
with the Cubs and Roy Smauey s
two-run fifth-inning homer
aeainst hi former teammates
provided all the runs Wehmeier
rpouired to notch his seventn
triumph. The Phils have won five
straight.
N.L. castoff Jim Wilson turned
in his fourth shutout of the sea
son a two-hitter as the Balti
more Orioles snapped the Chi
cago White Sox's seven-game
winning streak with a 3-0 decis
ion. Gus Triandos hit a two-run
homer in the first inning and Hal
Smith doubled home the third
run in the eiehth. Wilson now
has a 7-9 record for the Orioles.
Rov Sievers' 13th . and 14th
homers of the season paced the
Washington Senators to a 6-3 tri
umph over the Kansas City Ath
letics in the only other major
league game played. Ted Aber-
nathy was the winner ana uoya
Boyer the loser.
