Skinny Pitcher Puts Bums
High With Win Over Leaders
By JOHN GRIFFIN
United Press Sporti Writer
Back on the Braves' heels
again, because skinny Don Bes
sent pitched like Clem Labine at
his greatest, the Brooklyn
Dodgers set sail today into a
schedule of 16 straight games
against second -division teams
with their pennant hopes flying
higher than ever.
Bessent, who took over as the
Dodgers' No. 1 artist when ace
Labine broke a bone in his
wrist last week, blanked the
Braves for four innings Monday
to get credit for a clutch 6-3 vic
tory. He now has pitched 25
straight shutout innings.
It was the Dodgers' "biggest"
win so far this year, for it put
them back two games behind
Milwaukee with a split of their
two-game series.
Now, only one game behind
in the vital "lost" column, the
Dodgers feel the schedule favors
them in the run to the wire.
Here's why: Of the 33 games
they have left, a whopping 27
are against second division teams
and only six against top teams.
By contrast, the Braves play
first-division teams in 14 of 31
games, and third-place Cincin
nati meets the leaders 14 times
in 29 games.
Allows Only One Hit
What's more, Brooklyn is the
only contender with more home
games left thr-.n road games.
They play 20 of their remaining
33 at cramped but cozy Ebbets
Field where they hit so many
homers. The Braves have 14
home games left, the Redlegs
only 10.
Thin, pale-faced Bessent, gain
ing his first victory; in relief of
staff ace Don Newcombe, al
lowed just one hit in four frames
and was boosted to victory by
two key plays.
Pitcher Gene Conley of the
Braves made the first play. With
runners on first and third in the
top of the eighth and the score
tied, 3-3, he fielded Carl Fur
illo's one-bouncer and chose to
throw to the plate instead of
trying for a double play. Before
baserunner Jim Gilliam was
tagged out in a rundown, the
Dodgers had runners at second
and third.
That set up the second play.
Jackie Robinson was purposely
passed to pitch to CampanelU.
Campanella singled to score an
three runners, Robinson coming
all the way home from first
when the outfield relay was
slow.
Snider Cracks 35th
That gave Brooklyn a 6-3 lead
and Bessent kept the Braves at
bay.
The Braves had built up a 3-0
lead against Newcombe on Joe
Adcock's solo homer in the sec
ond and Babby Thompson's two-

pair of homers to lead Cleveland
to a 5-2 victory in a night game
at Washington, thus moving the
second-place Indians within sev
en games of the first-place New
York Yankees in the American
League. Rocky Colavito also
homered for the Tribe as pitcher
Bob Lemon, tossing an eight-hitter,
gained his 17th victory and
the 198th of his career.
Bilko Hits
51st Homer
In Angel Win
Portland, Ore. (U.R Steve
Bilko rapped out his 51st home
run of the season Monday night
as the league-leading Los An
geles Angels edged out Portland,
5-4, in the only game played in
the Pacific Coast League.
The bulky first baseman's
first inning swat moved him
within nine homers of the league
record established in 1925 by the
late Tony Lazzeri.
Torpe Hits
However, the hero of the
Angel victory was pitcher Bob
Torpe, usually a mild mannered
man at the plate, who connected
for three hits including a three-
run double in three trips to the
plate.
The bat work of Bilko and
Torpe gave the Angels a four
run lead at the end of two in
nings, but the Beavers got one
back in Cam Calderone's 11th
circuit blow in the second. Jack
Littrell helped the Beaver cause
with his 19th homer with a mate
aboard in the third.
Angels Move
Los Angeles lengthened its
lead to two runs in the fourth
inning as Torpe singled and Don
Lauters doubled to chase him
home and it was the Angels
needed. Bob Anderson came to
the rescue of Torpe after Port
land opened the seventh inning
with two hits and held the Bea
vers in check after they scored
One run in the frame on an er
ror.
Alex liomkowski z-l was
charged with the loss.
The two teams meet again to
night, while Sacramento plays
Hollywood, Vancouver meets Se
attle, and San Diego goes against
San Francisco.

Game Men Will
Ask Emergency
Hunting Periods
Portland (U.PJ 'The Oregon
state game commission has
asked the 1957 legislature for a
law to permit the commission to
declare emergency open seasons
on big game in order to halt
depredations on tree farms and
farm lands.
Such open seasons, under pro
visions of the bill proposed by
the commissioner, would be con
fined to areas not exceeding that
of one township.
The commission would be en
abled, when necessary, to open
on short notice areas where deer
or elk were causing serious dam
age.
A bill which would repeal' the
present statute governing boat
angling on the North Umpqua
river was included in the legis
lative program.
New reservoirs at Lemola No,
1, Toketee and Soda Springs
would be opened to boat angling
under the new bill. At present.
boat fishing in these areas is
prohibited.
The program Includes other
bills which would repeal the
statute defining protected game
birds; amend the disabled veter
ans license act; amend the stat
ute defining non residents to in
clude reference to guides and
trappers' licenses; amend the
controlled hunt statute to limit
only antelope tag holders to

Seek Compromise
New York (U.R) Sugar
Ray Robinson, apparent winner
over promoter Jim Norris, ex
pected today a speedy announce
ment of the date and site for his
middleweight title defense
against Gene Fullmer.
Only a compromise over a
$10,000 difference in opinion re
mained to be worked out, now
that Robinson's two-week revolt
against Norris finally earned a
$50,000 television guarantee
from the promoter.
Sugar Ray was still asking for
a sixty grand assurance, but in
such a mild voice that a compro
mise appeared in the immediate
offing.
Emil -K. Ellis, the champion's
attorney, informed Norris that
Robinson would be ready to go
through with the original plan
for a Fullmer fight at Yankee
stadium, Sept. 25, if desired. He
has been in training for three
weeks.
However, some of Norris' as
sistants at the International Box
ing club doubt there would be
time to "build up" the fight for
Sept. 25.

Southern Oregon Gridders
To Report on
Ashland Al Akins, head
football coach at Southern Ore
gon college has sent word to
SOC football aspirants that
training camp will get underway
Tuesday, Sept. 4, just 18 days be
fore their first game with the
Humboldt state college Lumber
jacks, Sept. 22, at the Medford
High school stadium.
Except for a single-point upset
by Eastern Oregon college, the
Red Raiders, who wound up with
a 4-4 won-loss season, would
have had as just a claim as any
one to the Oregon Collegiate
title last year. As it was SOC
had to settle for a three - way
tie for the crown with Oregon
college and Easterin Oregon.
Billy Seymour, quarterback
operator of Coach Al Akin's
spread T attack, holds the key
to further progress in the Red
Raiders rebuilding program as he
did last year. With Seymour
pitching, running and punting.
Seymour gained little AU-Ameri-can
honors, as well as little All
Coast, and was a unanimous first
team conference choice by the
OCC coaches.
Outlook Brightened
With 21 lettermen, nine of
them starters, and a fine group
of promising sophomores and
transfers, the SOC football fu
ture outlook has brightened up
considerably. The Red and
Black has a veteran backfield
complementing Seymour. Half
backs Ralph Clarno, the leading
scorer, and Ted Tenney, and
fullback Don Korns another SOC
representative to the OCC first
team.
Akins is looking for a break
away runner, and considerable
more team speed from some of
the new football prospects that
will answer the Sept. 4, grid
call.
Leading lights on the line are
end Dick Smith, guard Chuck Ro-
mine and tackle Herb Colley, all
whose devoted team play for
SOC was far more priceless than
the honorable mention OCC ra
ting . bestowed them by enemy
coaches. Akins also withholds
judgment on two sophomores
ticketed for the first-string line.
They are guard Jim Byrd, and
former tackle-end Ray Theiss,
who is being counted on to move
into the center spot
Biggest loss to the Red Raiders
was that of tackle Al Sodaro who
received all-conference first team
honors and little all-coast and
all-America recognition. Sodaro
is now serving in the Army along
with guard Willie Garner. Other
lettermen linemen in line to bat
tie it out for starting assign
ments are John Garrett, Hank
Smith, Chuck- Crandall, Tom
Ouinowski, Tom Findlay, Don
Phoenix High
Squad Lacks
Experience
Phoenix A team "relative
ly inexperienced especially in
the key positions." That's the
football situation at Phoenix
High school this fall.
Head Coach Jack Woodward
reported that 32 boys had physi
cals and checked out gear last
week. Among these are 11 one
year lettermen, of whom only
four were regulars in 1955.
Nine top players from last
year's squad are missing. The
backfield prospects for this sea
son were hard hit with all four
of the 1955 regulars gone. Coach
Woodward said that the 1956
club will lack the all-around
speed of the crew which last
year shared the District 6 A-2
championship with Coquille. He
plans to emphasize character
building.
The four regulars returning
are Don Wallace, Perry Sneed,
Delford Dean and Gary Sim-
monds, all linemen. Other letter-
men are Dennis James, Larry
Kidwell, Pete Bohm, Jack
Thompson, Jim James, Dale
Haggard and Fred Faytinger.
Linemen Into Backfield
The mentor reported plans to
shift Wallace from guard to left
halfback, Sneed, a 190-pounder,
from tackle to fullback and
Simmonds from end to right
half.
Phoenix will have to elect two
new co-captains to replace Dan
Lovett, all league back, who
transferred to Medford, and John
Garner, second all-league team
back, who dropped out of school.
Those lost by graduation, all of
whom won all league laurels,
were Delmar Brood, Jim Korth,
backs; Ray Dahl, Don Blanken-
ship, Dennis Bradley and Jli
Hobbs, linemen, and Walt Hurl-
but, back and lineman.
Of the 32 men who were issued
equipment. 13 are out for the
first time. Of these five are fresh
men.

hand yesterday as the Black
Tornado opened workouts.
The gridmen turned out at
10 a.m. and 4 p.m. yesterday.
Same schedule was set for today

Coach Fred Spiegelberg and
his staff are stressing much
work aimed at conditioning with
a lot of this physical sharpening
being accomplished along with
lundamental, specialty and team
play drills.
Yesterday morning saw the
gridders get right to' work on
blocking and the backs were
given ball-handling drills. The
footballers-ran the gauntlet, re
ceived plays and went through
dummy scrimmage and had punt
ing drill. A passing drill was
held in the afternoon. Linemen
received more attention on fund
amentals and plays were run.
Spiegelberg said that special
ists, the kickers and passers,
may be asked to report ahead
of other players, starting Wednes
