TWELVE MTOTORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBU1TE Wednesday, September 28. 1955 CLINCHING THEIR sixth American League pennant in seven years, New York Yankees, led by manager Casey Stengel (left) whoop it up. Pitcher Whitey Ford is carried on shoul ders of teammates following 3-2 victory over Boston at Fenway Park. (International) NY YANKS BOAST MOST SUCCESS AMONG ALL CLUBS IN WORLD SERIES Br UNITED PRESS The New York Yankees have always been the most successful of all World Series teams. Since winning their first pen nant in 1921, the Yankees have been world champions 16 times and settled for second money in the classic only four times. The most recent of these was in 1942 when they lost to the St. Louis Cardinals. Victory In this series would also give Stengel six world titles in seven years and a chance to lie Joe McCarthy's mark of seven league champions and six world series championships in eight years. The Dodgers, on the other hand, were hoping to end their history of frustration in the "big how." The Dodgers won pen 'nants in 1916, 1920, 1941, 1947, 1949, 1952 and 1953 but each time bowed in the series. They lost to the Boston Red Sox in 1916, the Indians in 1920 and to the Yankees in their last five classics. Climax Alston's Rise ; ForgAlston, a series triumph would climax his rise .from an obscure minor league manager in the massive Brooklyn farm system to the leader of the first Brooklyn world champion in his tory. Following the first two games at tne YanKee btadium, the scene will ' shift to Ebbets Field for games three, four and five. If more games are necessary, they'll back at the stadium. All the games are scheduled to start at 1 pjn. EDT except Sunday's which will begin at 2:05 p.m. The games are being televised over the National Broadcasting System and broadcast by the Mu tual Broadcasting System. In ad dition, they will be piped over seas by the Armed Forces Radio. Durocher Will Take Video Post New York U.R) Leo Duro cher. who gave up managing the New York Giants to take a job as television executive, will leave for California after the World Se-ies to assume his new duties in the field of talent rela tions with the National Broad casting Co. Tatum Selected Coach of Week College Park, Md. (U.R) He became famous as an offensive minded coach but in recent years he's become one of the finest defensive tutors in foot ball.' And that's why James "I Fear Anybody" Tatum, whose Mary land Terrapins upset UCLA, 7-0, is the United Press coach of the week. In beating the high-scoring Uclans, Tatum again, demonstra ted his ability to figure out a defense against even the most devastating attack. Last year's top-ranked UCLA, team led the nation in scoring and there was reason to believe Red Sanders' 1955 edition -would be just as potent and perhaps even more so. This year .the Uclans im proved their passing game with the addition of tailback Ronnie Knox. DODGERS ADD FARM Brooklyn, N.Y. (U.R) The Brooklyn Dodgers increased their total of farm clubs to 15 Tuesday when they signed a working agreement with the Ko komo, Ind., club of the Class D Mississippi - Ohio valley league. Grid Video Priced Out Of Existence By RON DUFFY Detroit (U.R) Detroit Lions General Manager Nick Kerbawy predicted today the National Football League "can't live with out television," but he charged the "NFL network telecasts had been "priced out of existence." Kerbawy said he and other club officials have been trying to find a way to replace the reg ular Saturday night network telecasts which were dropped this year. "The Dumont Network started carrying our Saturday night games in 1953 on an experiment al basis without much revenue. Last year, at the last minute, the sponsor canceled out and the network sold the program on a co-operative basis,", he said. Out of Business "We looked for a more stable set-up this year. But now the net work has gone out of business. "The big problem now is to get a network to carry the Saturday night games. The league has tried to stage its own network show. But we would have to pay $1.20-a-mile for cables that the net works can get for 13. to . 40 cents. "We've been priced right out of existence," he said. The general manager of the NFL's defending western divis ion champions said revenue from the network telecasts "amount ed to about 16 23 per cent 'of the individual clubs' receipts.

KENTUCKY STRAIGHT BOURBON WHISKY -IS PROOF . EARLY TIMES DISTILLERY COMPANY LOUISVILLE 1, KENTUCKY Terraps Given Seven Point Nod over Bears By JOE SARGIS Mighty Maryland, the nation's top ranked college football team, has been established only a seven-point favorite to defeat Baylor Saturday and the way Steve Owen, who scouted the Terrapins last week, sees it the odds-makers haven't been gen erous enough. , "A fine ball club," Owen said of Maryland. "The Terrapins have good tackles, are deep and have fine balance. The only time I saw UCLA in Maryland territory last Saturday was when the Bruins went into the field house at half-time." Baylor, too, is undefeated in two starts but apparently is in over its head against Maryland, the national champion of 1953. The Bears opened the season with a 35-7 win over Hardin Simmons and then followed up with a 19-2 victory over Vil lanova last Saturday night. Michigan Also Favored Michigan, Georgia Tech, Ok lahoma and Notre Dame, the teams- ranked behind Maryland in that order also are favored to win this Saturday. Michigan, a 42-7 conqueror of Missouri last Saturday, is a 12V4 point pick over Michigan State in their Big Ten test at Ann Arbor, Mich.; Georgia Tech, win ner over Miami, Fla., and Florida in its two starts, is favored by seven points over Southern Methodist in an intersectional meeting at Atlanta, Ga.; Okla homa, 13-6 winner over North Carolina in its only start,'- is a 12 choice over Pittsburgh at Norman, Okla., and Notre Dame, which trimmed SMU is a 14P point favorite against Indiana. Ohio State, the Rose Bowl champion and 28-20 winner over Nebraska in its season opener, is favored by 10 points in the na tionally televised game-of-the week against Stanford at Palo Alto, Calif. Stanford downed College of Pacific two weeks ago and dropped a 10-0 decision to Oregon State last Saturday. - Southern California is a I2V2 choice over Texas at Los Angeles and Wichita is favored by 10 points over the University of De troit in .
