Angels, Stars Notch
Coast League Wins
Los Angeles U.R) Jim
Bolger slammed a two-run hom
er over the left field wall Sat
urday as the Los Angeles An
gels took a 5-1 Pacific coast
league victory to cinch their
five-game series over the Sacra
mento Solons.
Dave Hillman went the dis
tance for the league leaders to
log a 16-4 record for the season.
The loser was Earl Harrist (11-
10). He took the mound for Gene
Bearden, who failed to play be
cause of Illness.
The win gave Los Angeles a
3-0 lock on the series, which
winds up with a double header
tomorrow.
Jim Bolger slammed out his
24th home run of the year in
the fifth to come in behind
Wade, aboard with a single, for
two more Angel tallies.
Los Angeles got two more
runs In the seventh frame. Bob
Coats singled in both Mauch
who singled, and Bolger, who
doubled.
San Francisco U.R) Right
hander Laurie Pepper, making
his Pacific Coast league debut,
singled in the winning run in
the seventh inning Saturday to
give the Hollywood Stars a 3-2
victory over the San Francisco
Seals.
Pepper, recently acquired
from the Pittsburgh Pirates, rap

Scratched
Mays Landing, N. J., (U..j
Blue Sparkler, a four-year-old
filly from the Woodland farm,
scrampered to an upset victory
in the $100,000 Atlantic City
handicap Saturday after Nashua
had been scratched because of
an attack fo colic.
Nashua, who was the odds-on
choice for the rich invitational
race, was withdrawn earlier in
the afternoon when Alfie Robert
son, one of his handlers, noticed
he was ill.
Veterinarians were called to
Nashua's stall and gave the big
colt an anti-spasmodic injec
tion. Although the ailment was
not considered too serious, it
probably will sideline the world's
leading money-winner for sever
al weeks. '
. In the absence of Nashua, the
race then shaped up as a battle
between Find and Mister Gus,
but it was the fleet-footed Blue
Sparkler who "stole" the show
and the winner's purse of
$65,000.
Taking the lead at the outset
of the mile and one-eighth event,
Blue Sparkler, with Sam Bul
metis urging her on, remained in
front all the way to win by a half
length. Skipper Bill, another out
sider, gained the runer-up spot by
a nose over Find.

Frisch Out
Of Danger
New Rochelle, N. Y. (U.R)
rrankie Rnsch, apparently out
of danger after being stricken
with a heart attack on Thursday,
rested comfortably at New Ro
chelle hospital Saturday and in
sisted on hearing the latest base
ball scores.
The 58-year-old hall of famer.
who starred as an infielder with
the New York Giants and St
Louis Cardinals and later served
as a major league manager with
three clubs, was described
"resting very well" by his phy
sician, Dr. James Vauehan.
Dr. Vaughan said he was sat
isfied with Frisch's progress, but
added it was too early to deter
mine how long the former "Ford-
ham Flash would be confined to
the hospital.
'He's been demanding ever
since he came to the hospital to
hear the latest baseball scores
Dr. Vaughan said. "He's a real
fighter."
Frisch, who conducts an in
terview-type show over a New
York television station following
each New York Giants home
game, suffered the heart attack
on Thursday night and was tak
en to the hospital where his con
dition at first was described as
critical."
However, Dr. Vauehan said
that Frisch had suffered a mild
attack not of a coronary nature
ana said his chances of recov
ery "are very good."
Only members of the immedi
ate family are permitted to vis
it Frisch, who in 19 major
league seasons compiled a .319
batting average and generally
was considered one of the top in
fielders of his era.
He managed the Cardinals
during their heyday as the "Gas-
house Gang" and later led the
Pittsburgh Pirates and Chicago
Lubs before entering the broad
casting end of baseball.

Potent Seraphs
Blast 18 Hits
Against Solons
By JOHN McDONALD .
United Press Sports Writer
"Give the Los Angeles Angels
a couple of front line pitchers,
put them in the American
league and they'd finish second
only to the New York Yankees.
That was manager Joe Gord
on of the San Francisco Seals
talking early this month when
his Seals were taking their bit
of lumps from the Angels, cur
rently in a cake walk toward
the Pacific Coast league pen
nant. The Seal skipper may have
been placing the Angels a trifle
high, but the mighty Cherubs
have 'to rate as one of the great
est powerhouses in PCL history.
They put on another of their
muscle flexing shows Friday
night banging out 18 hits for
a thumping 11-7 victory over
Sacramento.
The win moved the Angles to
10V4 games in front of the fad
ing Seattle Rainiers, who ran
into the red-hot Ryne Duren
notching his second straight
shutout, 1-0, for Vancouver. The
San Diego Padres took the op
ener of their series with Port
land 6-4, and the Hollywood
Stars held off San Francisco 4-3
in other games.
The Padres bunched four runs
in the third inning and collected
two more in the sixth to take
the measure of the Portland
Beavers 6-4 in their Pacific
Coast league baseball game here
Friday night.
Jansen Return
To Big Leagues
Spectacular One
By FRED DOWN
United Press Sports Writer
The Cinncinati RAlegs were
delighted today to forgive and
forget eight years of misery at
the hands of Larry Jansen.
Purchased from Seattle of the
Pacific Coast league last Mon
day, the 36-year old Jansen
made a spectacular return to
the big leagues Friday night
when he pitched the Redlegs to
an 8-1 win over the Milwaukee
Braves in the opener of a kev
three-game series.
The triumph moved the Red-
legs into second place one game
behind the first Dlare Rravps
and a half length in front of
the Brooklyn Dodgers, who had
bowed to the Philadelphia Phil
lies, 3-2.
Jansen, who ran uo an am
azing 24-4 record against the
Redlegs during his career with
tne iNew York Giants, limited
the Braves to nine hits.
The Redlegs backed Larrv
with an eight-hit attack that in
cluded a grand slam homer bv
catcher Ed Bailey.
Swimmers
Ready For
Olympics
By CONNIE RYAN
United Press Sports Writer
Detroit (U.R) U.S. swimmers
were impressive enough as they
set many new American records
last week in the Olympic trials,
but they will be even better in
the heat of the actual competi
tion at Melbourne, team coach
Bob Muir predicted Saturday
They are real competitors,"
he said. "They have the knack
of doing their best when it's
really needed, and we know it
will be needed in the Olympics."
Dan Ferris, the sage secretary
of the Amateur Athletic Union
who has been watching inter
national sport for many years,
agreed with Muir's sum-up.
Our people are good, tough
competitors, and that's an es
sential because most of the oth
er nations' swimmers are just
as capable of being inspired to
new records on the day and in
the race they really want to
win," he said.
Muir was particularly pleased
with the overall power of his
team.
'We have depth three-deep,"
he said. "Injury or a bad day
won't kill us. If one man or girl
is having a bad day, we still
have a one-two punch at them".

Schmidt Attacks Booster
Clubs Which Made Illegal
Payments To PCC Athletes
By SCOTT BAILLIE
San Francisco (U.R) Vic
tor O. Schmidt, the usually mild
commissioner of the Pacific
Coast Conference, stood today
as a strong exponent of the
PCC's "get tough" policy in the
wake of his smashing attack
against booster clubs which
made illegal payoffs to athletes.
Schmidt told the Common
wealth Club of California Fri
day that such boosters have em
barked on a "species of prop
aganda" ever since the confer
ence levied a series of drastic
penalties against four member
schools this year for violations
of the athletic code.
At the same time, he pointed
out that neither UCLA nor
Southern California, two pf the
most heavily penalized schools,
should be judged by the grat
uitous statements of boosters or
groups expressing certain senti
ments."
Secession Move
A strong move for secession
from the conference developed
in the Los Angeles area, where
these two schools are located,
after both were banned from
the Rose Bowl, fined and had
numerous gridders placed on the
ineligible list for taking under-the-table
payoffs.
UCLA was banned for three
years from the Bowl, fined the
equivalent of 95,000 and had
all of its gridders penalized a
year of eligibility. Southern Cal
ifornia was docked $63,400, bar
red from the Bowl two years and
had 42 football players put on
the ineligible list. California and
Washington suffered lesser pun
ishment. Earlier this week, the PCC de
clared that banned seniors at
USC and UCLA could play in
any five straight games this fall.
Schmidt, hitting at the "mor
al implications" involved in se
cret payoffs to students, char
acterized the organizations do

ing the financing as "money
changers" and said they had not
shown any regret for their ac
tions.
"Surprisingly, they have man
aged to enlist support," Schmidt
said. "Some are quoted as crit
ics of the conference. And their
supporters are many and also
critical of conference action."
Schmidt claimed that such ele
ments have embarked on what
he described as "a species of
"impropaganda." "
Four Planks
He said the drive is conducted
like this:
"1. Keep silent about the mor
al issue involving these kids;
"2. Blame the rules as being
'unrealistic;
"3. Claim that everyone is
guilty and that therefore, what
has been done is right and can
not be punished;
"4. Impugn the motives of all
who have had anything to do
with the penalties."
Schmidt said this fourth phase
of the campaign is based on
making "a claim of virtue of
success, hence jealousy, hence
hate and resentment," on the
parts of schools which were not
found guilty of rules infractions.
"These four universities
which were penalized -are great
universities," Schmidt said. "Do
not judge them by the attitudes
of those boosters and others who
in chagrin of disappointment
over a situation that is unhappy
to us all, gratuitously undertake
to speak for them."
Schmidt said that the PCC
"has no excuse to exist except
upon taking strong action in
these cases ... If you cannot
enforce your rules in the bad
cases when the chips are down
you have no rules. They are
meaningless."
There are almost twice as
many automobiles in Los Ang
eles as in all of South America.

Details of Savage Rapids
Screening Agreement Told
Details of the agreement be
tween the Grants Pass Irrigation
district and the Oregon State
Game commission on operation
,and maintenance of fish screens
to be installed at Savage Rapids
dam on Rogue river have been
outlined by officials of the dis
trict. Signing of the agreement by
the two agencies and the appro
priation of $208,000 by Congress
has assured the screening of irri
gation water intake turbines
sought for many years by sports,
the commission and irrigationists
to prevent mutilation and de
struction of downstream migrat
ing fish.
Under the plan the irrigation
district will be responsible for
two annual appropriations to
maintain and operate the screens
and to pay for a part-time em
ployee to keep motors and other
screen equipment in running or
der. The district will furnish up
to $200 per year for electricity
to drive the screens and operate
allied installations. Anything
above this amount the federal
bureau of reclamation will pay.
That is the report of Neal Shaf
fer, manager, Donald H. " Coul
ter, attorney, and O. H. Talbott,
board chairman, of the district.
Also, $500 will be set aside
each year in a reserve fund by
the district for maintenance and
repair of screen installations. If
that amount is more than suf
ficient for one year, the sum
left over will go into a fund for
later use such as possible major
repair.
Grants Pass Irrigation district
will not be obligated for upkeep
and repair which exceeds the
amount accumulated in the fund.
There will be no special or extra
assessments against district land,
for the electricity or mainten
enca fund, the three officials
said. -.
Actual installation of the
screens is not slated until the
fall of 1957. However, the bu
reau of reclamation will do pre
liminary engineering work this
October when the water level
above the dam is lowered.
Screens will be fabricated else
where and the bureau will han
dle actual installation.
The screens, probably three of
about 10-foot width will be of
revolving mesh type. They will
have jets of water pumped on
them to keep small fish from
being damaged or caught and
to keep the devices free of de
bris. There will be by-passes for

Sreens will keep fish out of
the turbine pipes and canals by

pumps elevate water into the

Pumping installations are at the
