Although Steve Bilko of Los Angeles continued to stay ahead with a comfortable .376 average, the son of the famed George Sis ler went on a batting binge last week that hoisted his mark from .334 to .353 and shot him into second place. Sisler. collecting 15 hits in 26 trips to the plate, clubbed a sandy .577. This was enough to displace Gene Mauch, Biiko's teammate, who had been dogging "The Bomb" all season in second place. Gene now is .350. Bilko stayed ahead in the home run battle, hitting two more in one game against San Francisco to boost his total to 41. He also propelled five more runs across the plate for an RBI leadership of 114. DOUBLE WINNER at horsemanship and beauty Anne Croddy of Santa Ana, Cal, is congratulated by Dr. E. J.

PAN-AM GAMES BILL PASSES Washington (U.R1 A bill authorizing a congressional ap propriation of $5 million to pro mote the 1 059 Pan-American Games in Cleveland, has been passed by Congress and sent to the White House. USE TRIBUNE WANT ADS New York A major national magazine has raised the possibili tv of a connection between the ; harsh penalties assessed against ; CCLA by tin- Pacific Coast con : fere nee and a desire to end Bruin dominance of west coast football. In its new issue Look magazine sia'es: "One would have to be rather naive not to realize that those at Stanritorri. California arid Oregon, as well as the others who o-,.ri P-r trie mrligibilit;. penai'v. v.ere fully aware that it would bring an end to UCLA loetball dominance." "It is ironic." the magazine continued, "that UCLA, which lias always made the most effec tive effort to prevent the 'blue chip' deal, was handed the most severe penalty in college football history . . . the loss of a year's ehgibilty for most Bruin players, a three year suspension from championship and bowl compe tition and fines totaling S93.000." Special Harshness The new issue of Look maga zine also points out that the penalty against UCLA, which triggered the investigation of and subsequent penalties to USC and California, has a special "harsh ness and strangeness" when it is considered that the PCC riid not impose a cee.cral inelisibilty on the University of Washington for a similar offense. Calling for a general revision of the Pacific Coast conference rules, the magazine stresses that under the "unworkable, Alice-in-Wonderland code of the confer ence no school could field a major team without cheating to some extent." As a remedy Look advocated: To achieve full justice, in view of the nature of the code and the fact that the plaers were not re sponsible for it. all penalties for all schools should be removed. The college presidents, or who ever clears up the mess, must carefully consider whether ni ne! any boy hnuld be declared ineligible for any contest because of the breakdown of a system for which he was not responsible."

USE TRIBUNE WANT ADS FOR RESULTS By DON THACKREY United Pres Sports Writer The musclcmen. who are sup posed to ride in convertibles, found themselves in the rumble seat Monday nieht as the Pacific Coast Leasue's flivver hitters took over the helm in a slate of one-run victories. All three scheduled games were decided by one tally and the heroes were all players who hit singles or less. There were home runs in all three games, but they were all hit in losing causes. Single Wins Game Sacramento tipped Los Ange les 6-5 on a tie-breaking single by Al Heist. Frank Robinson's ninth-inning single gave San Diego a 5-4 win over Portland. And Vancouver beat Hollywood 3-2 with the tying and winning runs scored on balls that were not hit out of the infield. Los Angeles fought back to a tie after Sacramento had taken an early 5-2 lead, but in the bot tom of the seventh Heist's single drove in Jake Crawford after two were out and the winning run was on the board. The winner as Gene Bearden, who got his 10th victory of the year. Bob Thorpe, second of four Anacl twiriers. was the loser G;,le Wade slammed a one-run home run tor tiie Angels in the fifth, his 11 lii of the year. Robinson's single in the bot tom of the ninth in San Diego brouuln across pich-runner Vic I.ombardi with the run that broke a 4-4 tie. P le Mesa bested Bill Wciie on the mound and Jack Littrell homered for Port land in the fourth with nobody I aboard. 'Mounties Score Late j R. C. Stevens drove home both of the Hollywood runs, one with I his 18th home run of the year. but it was not enough to match j the Vancouver output. With the score 2-1 in favor of the Stars the Mounties scored j twice in the top of the ninth. I Jim Westlake rambled home on ; Fred Marsh's grounder to Stev j ents at first base and beat the throw. j Then with the bases full An- gelo Dagres. who was aboard ! via a forceout, scampered across I with the winner on an infield j out. Charlie Drummond picked up the win in relief and George O'Donnell took the defeat, also as a fireman.

Good Ticket Safe For Washington, OSC Encounter Oregon State College, Corval lis, Washington and Oregon State traditionally play to large football crowds and judging from current advance ticket sales the Husky-Beaver encount er of November 3 in 1956 will be no exception. Business Manager Jim Bar net, reporting today on advance sales, said that the OSC-Washing-ton game in Portland has far out distanced all other home tills in Portland next fall. At this time, the Washington game has been twice as popular in interest as the big Oregon OSC "Civil War" clash slated for Corvallis on Thankgiving day. The OSC-UCLA homecom ing clash, scheduled here on Oct ober 27, ranks third "in advance sales. Fourth in popularity has been the OSC-California tilt, which opens the home slate at Parker stadium on October 13. First three Beaver games in '56 are on the road, against Missouri, USC and Iowa. Barratt said that season tickets have been popular to date, with two types offered to fans. Sea son ticket "A" includes all four home games, three at Corval lis and one in Portland. Season tickets "B" includes only the three Corvallis encounters. Mail orders are being accepted Vancouvrr .. ton nnn nn2 3 in 2 Hollywood . nnn nnn nn 2 0 l B;mitici-i:rr. Drummond i8.

Schmidt lias implied that PCC football players who took more money than the ath letic code permitted were pro fessionals. Schmidt's implication came on Monday in reply to an article appearing in the July 24 issue of Look magazine. The magazine said harsh penalties handed to UCLA by the PCC might have been connected with the desire of rival schools to end UCLA's domination in the PCC. Schmidt declared that the main purpose of the article was to show that the code did not allow universities to provide enough money for football play ers to take care of all their ex penses. "The conference has never ac cepted a pay for play philosophy and does not believe its member institutions should guarantee all of an athlete's expenses . . . "We have no quarrel with professional sports in their pro per place, but do believe that our teams should be composed of students, and not profession als who must be guaranteed a living wage." ;,l.gJMW.yjli1,'yJBrlJ'mi'.
