SF Seal Club
Has Trouble
At Stadium
San Francisco (U.R) Damon
Miller, president .of the San
Francisco Seals, said today the
club may have to move down to
the peninsula yet because, of its
(troubles at Seals Stadium.
Miller was checked on two
fronts yesterday in his efforts
to keep the club in San Fran
cisco and in sound financial con
dition. First, the finance committee
of the San Francisco Board of
Supervisors turned down a pro
posal to buy the stadium from
Paul I. Fagan and rent it to the
local club on a sliding scale
based on attendance.
Repair and Repaint
Second, Fagan demanded that
the Pacific Coast League repair
and repaint the stadium or
else. The PCL holds a lease on
the stadium and sublets it in
turn to the Seals.
In a letter to the PCL, Fagan
demanded that all the seats be
repaired and repainted, that the
light towers be repainted,, that
the gates on the Bryant Street
side be repainted and that the in
side offices be redone.
If his demands are not met by
Jan. 1, Fagan said he will con
sider the lease canceled. .
H. Morris of Linfield
One of Top Linebackers
In Northwest Circuit .
Linfield College, McMinnville,
Oregon (special) A winless band
of Linfield Wildcats will be out
to pull an upset out of the bag
this Saturday afternoon when
they take on the rough Lewis
and Clark Pioneers in their sec
ond Northwest Conference game
of the season.
Although the Wildcats have
dropped successive games to
Southern Oregon, Portland State
and College of Idaho, the frosh
sprinkled lineup has v been im
proving with each game and
could give the Pioneers a real run
for their money. No injuries
were sustained against College
of Idaho Saturday night that will
keep men out of action this
week, and the "Cats" hope to be
at full strength for the Lewis
and Clark outfit.
Several of the Wildcat ver
erans have been playing very
good ball this season and if some
of the frosh come through Satur
day they could pull an upset out
of the hat. Included among these
veterans are guard Howard Mor
ris and end Howard Glenn, both
practically 60 minute ball play
ers this season.
Morris, a soph letterman from
Crater high (Central Point), is
at 5-9 and 180 jpounds one of the
best linebackers in the league,
and a real hustler on offense.
With the much injured Vic Fox
at the other guard and backing
up the line, the Wildcats have a
strong duo there 'to face the
rugged Lewis and Clark line.
Pitt over Navy The Panthers
are coming and the Middies have
lacked desire. It should be a
bruising contest with the out:

Debut Made
By Rigney
New York (U.R) Skinny
Billy Rigney makes his official
debut as manager of the New
York Giants today but last year's
world champions already have
started their rebuilding pro
gram. They began by calling up sev
en players from their farm sys
tem, including the "most valu
able player" in the Texas league
and by trading Ranee Pless,
"most valuable player," in the
American association, to the
Kansas City As for first base
man Don Bollweg and $35,000.
Rigney,1 who managed Minnea
polis to the Little World series
championship, was expected to
announce the names of his coach
es late today. Reportedly, Ray
Mueller, former major-league
catcher who was a coach under
Rigney at Minneapolis, has an
inside track for one of these
jobs.
Four Catchers
The big batch of players call
ed up by the Giants included
four catchers. One of the back
stops is Ray Murray, 35-year-old
former major leaguer who
was named the "most valuable
player" in the Texas league.
The other catchers are Leon
ard Jackson of Dallas, Wilburn
Jenkins from Sioux City, and
Bob Schmidt from DanVille.
Others called up were shortstop
Eddie Bressoud of Minneapolis,
pitcher Dom Zannl from Sioux
City, and former Giant outfield
er George Wilson from Minneapolis.

with us next year."
Manager Casey (Stengel of the
Yankees, who is pressed for time
because the Yankees are leav
ing Saturday morning for their
tour of Japan, also had meet
ings planned today because there
"are things we gotta do that I
want to get started on."
Needs Pitchers
Alston indicated that relief
pitching will be something the
Dodgers will try to build up
during the winter, although Dod
ger relief hurlers did v very well
against the Yankees in the ser
ies. : .
Stengel indicated a strong be
lief the Yankees may have to
make player deals during the
winter to. repeat as American
League pennant winners. He
pointed out that "we just 'skin

for stronger challenges next
year from the Boston Red r Sox

The Yankee skipper, like Al

ing when 1956 plans came up
and admitted, "we'd be willing
to trade for help there."
