Antonelli
Victory; Junior Loop Hurling
By LEO H. PETERSEN
United Pri Sports Edilor
Washington (U.PJ Walter
Alston credited the clutch relief
pitching of Johnny Antonelli as
the major factor today in the
National league's 7-3 victory in
the 23rd renewal of the All-Star
game.
"Of course, that hitting didn't
hurt us, either," said the Dodg
er manager who piloted the Na
tional leaguers to their sixth
win in the last seven All-Star
games.
"But Antonelli went out there
and shut the door in their faces
just when it looked like maybe
they were going to catch up
with us."
Casey Stengel, who lost his
fifth game in six tries as the
manager of an American league
team, agreed that pitching beat
us.
"Theirs and Ours," he said. He
refused to go along with a ques
tioner who asked if he thought
he was jinxed as an All-Star
pilot.
"Jinx, hell," he snapped. "Give
me some pitching and I'll win."
He agreed with Alston that
Antonelli was a key factor, but
added.
"Their third baseman Ken
Boyer of the Cardinals made
some good plays and some good
hits."
Pierce Losing Hurler
Boyer got three of the 11 hits
with which the Nationals bom
barded the six pitchers whom
Stengel used, starting with Billy
Pierce, the 13-game winner of
the Chicago White Sox, who
was charged with the loss when
he yielded the Nationals' first
run in the third inning.
Boyer's hits were all singles,
but he batted in a run and scor
ed another. Willie Mays and
Stan Musial, each with home
runs, and big Ted Kluszewski
with two doubles, did the long
range clouting.
That more than offsett the
two home runs which accounted
for the American league scoring
In the sixth inning. The Ameri
cans were behind, 5-0, when Ted
Williams belted his fourth AU-
Star homer with Nellie Fox on

To Be Selected
Portland (U.R) One thing
was assured today after the
Multnomah Kennel club applied
to the state racing commission
for a shift in the location of its
planned racing schedule there
will be dog races this summer.
The question that remained
and it may be answered in a
meeting Friday is where the
dogs will run. Both the Multno
mah county fairgrounds and
Portland Meadows have said the
Kennel club would be welcome
to -use their 'facilities.
Meeting yesterday, two of
three Multnomah county com
missioners approved the apph
cation of the club to hold the
races at the fairgrounds. The
racing would be held after the
county fair, giving racing fans
40 to SO days of the sport at
the temporary plant.
Track Offered
Officials of Portland Meadows
also formally, offered the track
for use by the Kennel club this
summer.
The state racing commission
took both offers under advise
ment.
Officials of the Kennel club
indicated that stock will be of
fered for sale to the public to
finance completion of the dog
track being built just east of
Portland. Work on the track
was halted earlier this year when
costs began to outdistance pre
liminary estimates by a wide
margin.

ANYONE FOR MEASLES?
Brighton, England (U.R) A
doctor advised British girls Tues
day to hold German measles tea
parties so they may catch the
disease before expecting a baby.
-I would like to see the medical
research council run a holiday
camp to keep the disease going,"
Dr. G. I Watson told the British
Medical Association. He said the
women should have German
measles before expecting a child
to reduce the chances of her
catching them during the criti
cal months of her pregnancy.

No Spot Now
At Shortstop
For Kindall
By ED SAINSBURY
Uniled Press Sports Writer
Chicago (U.R) Jerry Kindall's
style at shortstop produced a lu
crative bonus contract with the
Chicago Cubs, but if he makes
the team to pay off, he'll prob
ably be at another position.
Kindall, all Big Ten and Ail
American on the Minnesota team
which won the conference and
national collegiate champion
ships this year, signed with the
Cubs, even though the team is
stronger at shortstop with Ernie
Banks than at any other position.
"I thought about that," Kin
dall said today, "but Sid Mat
thews talked so nice, and they
offered more money than any
body else, so I signed.
Kindall, who has appeared so
far only as a pinch runner, will
get every chance at another posi
tion. Manager Stan Hack said,
even though he might not break
into the lineup until after spring
training next year.
Stick With Banks
"You don't weaken two posi
tions to strengthen one," Hack
said, "so I'm not thinking of
moving banks into the outfield
to put Kindall at short. But I
think a shortstop can play about
any position.
"He could get into the -lineup
this year, under certain circum
stances, but right now we're go
ing to carry him along to let him
see the other parks and teams
and learn something. I've seen
him in batting practice and in
field drill, and he handled him
self well. But that's all I can say
until I see more of him."
Kindall, a good hitter in col
lege with a .379 batting average
and 12 home runs in 31 games
this season, said he had to learn
to hit a curve a year ago and
that helped him. He also worked
to go "in the hole" to handle
balls. "I know the curve up here
isn't the curve I've been hitting,"
he said, "but I hit the ones they
threw in college."

Match Play
smoke clears away tonight only
16 will be left from the field of
64 that started this morning.
Unlike the pros in tournament
play, "these Sunday morning
swingers" didn't have the op
portunity to make up for that
"bad first nine." Today's 36
holes separated the men from
the boys in a hurry.
The spotlight centered on two
men:
1. Scotty McBeath of Palo
Alto, Calif., who won medalist
honors with a 69-72 141 for
the 36 holes of qualifying play
that ended Tuesday.
2. Big Jim North, a 265-pound
ex-professional football player
from North Bend, Wash., who
can clout the ball farther than
any man in the world.
North doesn't have the finesse
possessed by McBeath, but he
doesn't need it. He gets home in
two on most of the par-five holes
and on the par four holes he
usually needs only his driver
and a wedge or nine-iron to
make the green.
McBeath met Ferd Hubert,
Pekin, 111., in the first round.
Hubert was at the tail end of
the qualifiers with a 155.
North, who took 154 strokes
to get into the match play, took
on 125-pound Billy Joe Lauer,
an 18-year-old student from Spo
kane, Wash., who qualified with
a 155 also.
The tournament moved along
without defending champion
Sam Kocsis, who was called to
his home in Detroit, Mich., by
the death of his father-in-law.
Rocky Undergoes
Spinal Therapy
Brockton, Mass. (U.R) Re
tired heavyweight chamn i n n
Rocky Marciano today began
treatments aimed at averting
possible surgery tor a ruptured
spinal disc suffered while romp
ing with his 3-year-old daughter.
Dr. Nathaniel Gould, ortho
pedic surgeon at Brockton Hos
pital, said the 31-year old Mar
ciano would receive rest, heat
massage and physiotherapy treat
ments "for two or three weeks."
If the treatments iail to cor

week, "the question of surgery
will then have to be consid

diagnosing the injury.
Rocky was confident that sur
gery would not be necessary.
But he reiterated strongly that
even if the condition is cleared
up he has no intention of return

Falters
Williams called him "a helluva
pitcher."
"I was warned to watch for
his fast ball, but he showed me
nothing but slow stuff with a
fast ball motion," Williams said.
"He really fooled me."
Pitched Four Innings
Antonelli yielded four hits,
two to the first two batters
he faced in the sixth, and the
other two with one man out in
the ninth. Actually the Giant
southpaw pitched four innings.
Under All-Star rules no pitcher
can start more than three in
nings unless the game goes into
extra innings, but Antonelli was
permitted to go as long as he
did because he did not start the
sixth.
The National league also scor
ed off Whitey Ford, Jim Wilson
and Tom Brewer, who followed
Pierce in that order. Only Herb
Score, who hurled the eighth
and Early Wynn, who worked
the ninth, were able to hold the
Nationals at bay.
The run off Pierce came when
Roy McMillan, one of the five
Cincinnati Redlegs in the start
ing line-up, singled, went to sec
ond on Friend's sacrifice, and
scored on Johnny Temple's
single.
Ford started out well enough
when he struck out Musial to
open the fourth, but then Boyer
singled and Mays, pinch hitting
for Gus Bell, hit his home run.
Stengel called on Wilson, a
right hander, :n the fifth. Temple
greeted him with a bunt single
down the third base line and he
went to second as Musial ground
ed out. Boyer's third single scor
ed him.
Big Klu Scores
In the sixth, Brewer felt the
sting of the National league bats.
Kluszewski, batting for Dale
Long, doubled, went to third
on McMillan's pop single over
first base and scored on a wild
pitch.
Brewer gave up two more runs
in the seventh. With one out
Musial homered. Brewer got
Boyer the only time the Car
dinal third baseman was retired
but Mays walked and raced
all the way home on Kluszew
ski's second double.
That ended the National
league scoring but it was more
than enough.
It was the National league's
10th victory against 13 defeats
in the mid-summer dream game.

league pitching, there was one
other thing which did not come
up to expectations. That was
the crowd. It totaled 28,843,

No one could point a finger at
the Northwest League today and
accuse the circuit of being un
balanced. All six teams which
have seen action are tied with
identical 1-1 marks after two
games of the second half.
Tri-City topped Salem 8-1,
Eugene beat Wenatchee 11-3 and
Yakima thumped Lewiston 15

night of the second semester.
Danny Holden returned to the
Tri-City lineup for the first time
since June 25 when he was side
lined with a broken toe. He
belted the first pitch out of the
park for a 2-run homer in the
first frame and the Braves were
off and running behind Vern
Kindsfather.
Thro Hitler Hurled
Kindsfather pitched 3-hit ball,
gave up one unearned run,,
notched his 12th victory of the
year and lowered his season's
