Brown said plans for the 1956 playing season will be dis cussed and asked that represent atives at the meeting be pre pared to commit their teams at that time. Teams making up the, league last year were Ashland, Butte Falls, Glendale, Grants Pass. Camp White and Eagle Point. By ALEX KAHN Los Angeles (U.R) If Los An geles can get the rest of its team to play up to the abilities of its hitters, the Angels think they will be tough this year. Bob Scheffing is starting his first full season as manager and the former Cub coach thinks he will have a contending ball club that could prove better than the 1955 team which fin ished in the first division. In Steve Bilbo, Buzz Clark- son, George Freese, Bob Coats and Gene Mauch he has a "mur derers' row" that should make opposing pitchers tremble. "But we need some help on the mound ourselves," Scheffing said as he drilled his squad at Wrigley Field. "You can't lose three pitchers like George Bros- nan, Don Alston and Turk Lown without it hurting. We hope the Cubs can provide that help." Well Equipped But aside from pitching help and another catcher, Los Ange les appears well equipped for the coming season. Some of that help already has been assigned to Los Angeles in Dick Drott and Bob Anderson, both up from the Cub farm organization. Holdover pitchers who might improve last year's perform ances are Ray Bauer, Hy Cohen and Dave Hillman, while Harry Perkowski is down from the Cubs. But Scheffing has only Sam Mauny and John Sweich as catchers, both up from lower classification farms and he can use an experienced backstop. It is in the infield that Los Angeles shows most of its strength. There it has Bilbo at first after having led the league in homers with 37 last year. Clarkson was going great guns in 1955 until he broke his leg, but he hopes to be up to his best again. Freese was drafted by the An gels, who think he could prove their best all-around player capable of working both the in field and outfield, as he did at Hollywood. Casey Wise has been impressing Scheffing at short stop and Gene Mauch has second base sewed up. Sam Brown, Too In the outfield the Angels have Jim Bolger from Chicago; Coats, George Haas and Prentise Browne to start with. UCLA football star Sam Brown also is trying for an outfield berth, while Tom Loprete was signed as a free agent. "We should get off to a good start," Scheffing says. "The out look is better than it was last year. But so is the competition this year in the league. We've got a better bench this time and if we get the help we need, we'll be right up there." Al Brighfman Resigns Post At Seattle Seattle U.R) Horace Albert (Al) Brightman insisted today "there was no pressure" involv ed in his resigning as head bas ketball coach at Seattle univer sity. Still unanswered was the question of why the coach whose Seattle U. teams won 180 vic tories against 68 defeats during his 8-year tenure stepped down from the job yesterday after noon. The Rev. Robert Rebhahn, S.J., the school's athletic direc tor, denied Brightman's argu ments on .the sidelines at Corval lis last Saturday with John Wooden, UCLA coach, precipi tated the resignation. Brightman leaped off the bench and charged Wooden when the UCLA coach objected to the play of Ken Fuhrer as the two teams battled for third place in the western regional NCAA playoffs. Father Rebhahn moved in and helped settle the discussion. No Pressure "There was no pressure," Brightman said. "This is some thing I had planned for awhile. When I leave I want everyone here to know that it has been eight wonderful years. I have no complaints." He said he was in the market for a coaching job and suggest ed Steve Belko, coach of Idaho State, as a "terrific" guy for Seattle university to land. Brightman said he was going to the college basketball coaches convention in Chicago next week. , Flyers Have Close Call New York (U.R) The top- j of 10 points that put the Flyers seeded Dayton Flyers still were alive in the National Invitation tournament today but their role as title choice was badly shak en by their poor performance in Tuesday night's 72-68 triumph over Xavier of Cincinnati. The quarter - final victory moved Dayton into a semi-final berth Thursday night against St. Francis of Brooklyn, a smaller but scrappy outfit that must be given a chance to whip the Flyers. Third-seeded St. Joseph's of Philadelphia spurted early in the second half to win Tues day night's other quarter-final by a comfortable 74- 65 score over over Seton Hall. But the Hawks probably will be under dogs in Thursday's semi-final against second-seeded Louis ville. Xavier was in charge most of the way and drove to a 44-35 lead early in the second half. At this point, sub Al Sicking re placed 7-foot Bill Uhl at center for Dayton and ran off a string back in the game. Uhl return ed with two minutes left and Xavier leading, 68-67. The ponderous 7-footer then turned the tide to make up some what for his earlier bad show ing. First he dropped two free throws to put Dayton ahead. Ar len Bockhorn added another free throw and then Uhl gain ed a last-ditch shot by Jim O'Conneli. Carmen Riazzi sped through for a clinching layup with seconds left.
