But j the Whiter crew- is largely made : up of Medforditcs and the Che- : ney orcanization considers itself! a "'valley'' team. In fact, there : are more ex-Medford hiph ath-j letes playing for Camp White . than for the Studs. Camp White counts at least six men who played their prep ball for the Black Tornado while the , Colts have three.

The Hawaii Kai III spent the : night here Thursday merit and today is continuing its 1.400 mile trip from Los Angeles to the site of the race. The trip is ex- . pei-ted to take four or five da s and amaze a number of unsus j pecting motorists. ! The reason the h droplane veil! ; look like a flying saucer making a fast turn, is that the hot rod ; of the waterways is 12 feet w ide too wide for legally travelling I state roads in a horizontal posi ! tion. ' So driver Howard Gidovlenko of Los Angeles and his crew ! have tilted their boat and put j it on a trailer. Now it passes ; state highway regulations, no matter what it may do to the i sensibilities of passing motorists. I The Hawaii Kai III is one of j two hydroplanes Kaiser has en tered in the S25.000 trophy race. The other, the Scooter Too. is already in Seattle and working out on Lake Washington.

Contention Sunday will find the Colts battling to strengthen their position in the first divis ion. The Whiters. on the other hand will aim to boost their chances of getting into the top for a post-season playoff spot. Currently, the Colts are tied for third in the eight-team loop. They have six victories in nine games while the CW gang has only three and is sixth in the standings. Nelson to McAbee Camp White Sunday likely will open with Nelson on the hill and McAbee catching. Other possibil ities are Wooton. first base: Loop, second; Mintz. third, and Thore son. shortstop with Irvin. Drew and Rogers in the outfield.

Mrs. Katliy Cornelius, a 23 ! year-old neophyte in the women pro clf ranks was the only j player to shoot par for the first j8 holes Thursday over the sprawling 6.419-foot Northland Country club course, and that was good enough for first place. Mrs. Cornelius, the wife of a Lake Worth. Fla.. pro used her putter to perfection on the back nine holes to finish with 33 after her morning round of 40. Her great finishing spurt three birdies on the last five holes gave her a one-stroke lead over Mrs. Marlene Bauer i Hagge. Asheville. N. C. and Bev i erly Hanson. Apple Valley.

It sounds trite, I United Press Sporls Writer j guess, to say that it has been a Brooklyn UP. It could be combination 0f g00cj pitching now or never ior ' savs Dodger captain Pee Reese. "From the looks of it." said Bppsp after the Dodeers reeled u.. are on uieir litiu Miaini wcioiy u, defeating Cincinnati. 5-3. Thurs day, "I would say we're starting 1 termined shortly, particularly against the Braves. And like Pee Wee says, it could be now or never for Brooklyn as far as the 1956 flag is concerned. to make our move. "All I know is that we'd better start moving now if we ever are," he added, towelling himself after a post-game shower. ; "We'll find out in a hurry one way or the other as soon as Mil waukee comes in here Mond; y i for a four-game series. There's . no use beating around the bush. ; We simply have to beat the ! Braves ourselves if we're going ! to pass 'em. No one is going to i do the job for us." I By beating the Redlegs for . their sixth victory in seven games and their ninth triumph in ! their last 12 games, the Dodgers : climbed to within a half game of I second place. Milwaukee's vic tory over the Giants, however, still left the Brooks six full games off the pace. Looks The Best "Frankly," Reese commented. "I've never seen our club look better than it does right now. "I've said all along that if Duke Snider. Gil Hodges and Roy Campanella hit we can win. And they're all starting to go now." Snider won Wednesday's game against Cincinnati with a ninth inning homer. Hodges' RBI total has started to mount since the All-Star break and Campanella blasted a three-run h o m e r against the Redlegs Thursday. It was his first circuit smack since July 7. I I "It's hard to pin-point the one i man most responsible for stari ! ing us off." Reese said, nibbling on a chocolate-covered mint sent to him by one of his admirers, i "How can you overlook Carl jFurillo? He 'hit safely in 18 I straight games and he certainly has given us a big lift. And I Sandy Koufax heloed plentv with that great ganne he pitched against the Cardinals last Sun day. "I'd have to say those two games we beat the Cards last Sunday were the big ones so far. You could just sense that all the fellows on the club took on a new outlook after those two wins. "Like I said, though, you can't say for sure what one thing ! truth. Our pitching is really be ginning to straighten out now. Don Newcombe and Roger Craig looking like money from ! home." i Whether or not the Dodgers i actually are launching a genu ine pennant drive will be de- FISHERMEN!
