Over North
Portland. Ore. Oi.R, The
Southern All-Stars of the Pa
cific Coast League unleashed
J-nit Datting attack to win a
10 to 5 victory over the North
ern All-Stars in the annual
charity classic Monday night.
It was the eighth win for the
South in the 12 times the game
has been played. A crowd of
10.437 fans watched the game,
far short of the record turnout
in Los Angeles nine years ago
when 19.851 fans were on hand.
San Francisco's Russ Kem
merer took credit for the win.
Seattle's Howie Judson was tag
ged with the loss.
The North broke into the scor
ing column only in the third
inning, when San Francisco's
R. W. Smith had some trouble
controlling the ball. The Nortn
eners scored all their five runs
then. .
Sparking the southerners' at
tack was Bob Usher, San Diego
rightfielder who had three for
five, including a triple, a dou
ble and a single.
Manager Bill Sweeney of the
North sent three hurlers to the
mound in an attempt to quell
the riot, but they yielded a total
of 14 hits to the southland bat
ters.
Manager Bob Schcffing's
southerners trailed for five in
nings, then got going and were
never headed. '
In the second. Usher tripled
to right center to score Eddie
Kazak of San Diego. Casey Wise
of Los Angeles followed with
a single that scored Usher.
In the fourth inning. Jim
Bolger of Los Angeles singled
No right, scoring big Steve
Bilkn. of Los Angeles, and
Kazak. '
Two frames later, George
Freese of Los Angeles hit the
game's only homer. Then Usher
doubled and Haywdod Sullivan
of San Francisco drew a base
on balls. Wise singled to score
Usher and Sullivan came home
when Vancouver's Jim Pisoni
let the ball get away from him
in centerfield. A double by
Soook Jacobs of Hollywood
scored Wise.
In the eighth, singles by
Jacobs. Bob Speake of the An
gels and Dick Sisler of San
DieEo brought in two more

Opposing lineups for this eve
ning's Medford Cheney Studs
Colts baseball engagement at the
fairgrounds diamond will not be
known until just about game
time. Managers Jack Cooney of
the Studs and Harry Tonn of the
Colts have indicated. .
Derald Wooton and Jim Kel
ly of the Studs and Kay Kelley,
Duane Sides and Bruce Forette
of the Colts all are to see pitch
ing duty during the evening.
Available players on the ros
ters of the Studs of the Southern
Oregon league and the farm
team Colts of the Rogue Valley
league are to be pooled and fair
ly equal lineups picked for the
skirmish under the lights.
Since Frank Roelandt and
Tiger Bob Smith of the Studs
will not be on hand, the catch
ing chores for the evening will
fall into the hands of Doy Gat
lin and Howard Morris of the
Colts.
Chores Outlined -
First base chores will see Coo
ney .Harvey Tonn and Sides in
action. Morris Churchman of
the Colts and Dick Toney of the
Studs will be rival second base
men and Twink Pederson of the
Studs and Don LaBeau of the
farm crew will be on opposite
sides at shortstop. Bill Mai-tell
of the SOL nine and Donn John
son of the RVL team are billed
for third base assignments.
Outfields will be filled from
among Terry Maddox, Larry
Bigham, Ed Reinking, Bob Se
rak, Jerry Bettendorf 'and some
of the pitchers.
Purpose of the fracas this eve
ning is to make up for long
game inactivity. The Studs
haven't played since Aug. 4 and
5 and the Colts, also idle over
the past week end, had their last
action last Wednesday.
This week end the Studs have
their final game of the Southern
Oregon league" slate needing
only one win over Coquille .to
claim lone hold on the cham
pionship. The Colts will play at
Ashland on Sunday seeking the
Victory which will give them a
berth in the season end play
offs. A Colt win will put both
Ashland and Camp White out of
the running

New York (U.R) Baseball's
"pension dissension" was all but
forgotten today as players and
club owners took final steps to
assure veteran major leaguers of
the rosiest future ever offered
any group of professional ath
letes. The four-man pension commit
tee of two players and two club
bosses met for three hours Mon
day to incorporate new benefits
into the present plan, which will
be made possible by the new
contract for commercial spon
sorship of the World Series and
All-Star game on radio and TV
beginning in 1957..
"We had a harmonious meet
ing in which we worked out de
tailed plans that will be sub
mitted to the players on each
team through their player rep
resentatives," said Bob Feller of
Cleveland., The American
League's chief representative
met with owner John Galbreath
of the Pittsburgh Pirates and
Joe Cronin, general manager of
the Boston Red Sox.

Bout Billed For
Heavyweights
Portland (U.R) Both camps
were predicting an early round
knockout today in Thursday
night's heavyweight bout here
between Eddie Machen and
Walter Hafer but they differed
markedly on which boy was go
ing to be on his feet at the count
of 10.
Machen, eighlh ranked heavy
weight nationally, will be given
a slight edge over his far more
experienced opponent but not in
the Hafer camp.
Even the young San Francisco
fighter's win over highly touted
Nino Valdez doesn't impress
Hafer who is working on a
comeback.
How does Hafer feel about
Machen: "He's a good young
boy, sure, but I've fought better."
3,000 Shooters
Open Rifle Meet

More than 3,000 top civilian and
service rifle and pistol shooters

be determined but also the
United States Olympic shoot
ing team will be selected dur

United Press Sports Writer
The return of Del Crandall's
home run touch, which left him
for 54 straight days before he
regained it, is the latest item to
boom Milwaukee's o e n n a n 1 1
stock, along with the pitching
of their young phenom, Taylor
Phillips.
: Crandall' and Phillips, the
Milwaukee battery, ran as an
entry in Monday night's 5-1 vic
tory over the Cincinnati Red
legs, and they didn't need much
help from anyone else. It was
the third victory in the vital
four game set with the Sedlegs
and put Milwaukee two full
games in front again. Second
place Brooklyn was rained ouf
after one inning against the
Giants and the losing Redlegs
in third place dropped four full
games off the pace.
Crandall drove in three of the
runs against Cincy, two with a
sixth inning homer that broke a
1-1 tie and put Phillips in front
to stay.
Crandal, who hit 26 homers
last season, and who normally
gets around 20, went from June
14 until Aug. 8 without a round-
tripper. He hit his 12th then
against the Cardinals and came
through with his vital 13th blast
Monday night, five days later.
Phillips pitched a seven-hitter
for his third victory and his
second in a row as a starter.
Frank Robinson touched him
for, a first inning Cincy homer
and' he pitched shutout ball
thereafter.
The Braves tied it at 1-1 in
the second when Crandall de
livered Joe Adcock from third
on a 'sacrifice fly. Second base
man Danny O'Connell, hitting
safely in his ninth straight
game, drove in two more runs
for added safety in the eighth.
It was a winning night at the
gate for Milwauke, too, which
drew 38,580 and enabled the
Braves to set a new four game
series home attendance record
of 162,880.
The Dodgers were tied 1-1
with the Giants when rain wash
ed out the game in the first in
ning. Pee Wee Reese had hom
ered for flie Brooks.
The Minneapolis Millers upset
the Cleveland Indians in an ex
hibition game, 5-4 and then to
provide a reverse twist the In

Old Satchel Paige admits that
Rigney of the New Yorkand wnat a job he s doirig theSe
days for the Miami Marlins in
the International League!
The one-time , major-leaguer,
who claims he's "only 50-years
old" but probably is closer to 55,
just missed pitching a seven in
ning, nohit, no-run game Mon
day night as the Marlins defeated
the Rochester Red Wings, 4-0, in
the opener of a doubleheader.
Right-fielder Tom Burgess
ruined Paige's no-hit bid with a
fourth inning single. The ageless
Satch walked two men and
struck out .three in running his
season record to 10 victories
against only three defeats.
Paige said he "felt good" over
his latest star performance be
cause it "showed everyone" he
can still start and finish games.
He added he used no fast balls
against the Red Wings.

as "the worst manager in base
ball." Mangan was suspended indef
initely for jumping the Giants
Sunday in Pittsburgh during a
double header, then "popping
off" about Rigney when he re
turned to fly back to New York
with his teammates.
Rigney said Mangan came to
him and "the kid begged me
not to run him out of baseball."
But he said he could not take
any action on his suspension be
cause that was invoked by Giant
President Horace Stoneham.
"I really feel sorry for him,"
Rigney said. "You have to like
a kid who wants to play base
ball as badly as he did. He just
got down in the dumps and did
something that was very stu
pid." It was not the first time the
26-year-old Mangan had been in
volved in a brush with his
bosses. While he was with Pitts
burgh he sounded off against
Branch Rickey, then general
manager, and acknowledged la
ter, to Rickey himself, that he
was the player who had scrib
bled some naughty words on a
club house notice. Rickey had
posted the notice.
Rickey sent the youngster to
their Class C El Paso team
where he became involved in
an argument with an umpire,
was fined $100 and jumped the
club on that occasion, too.
