STENGEL JUGGLES LINE-UP FOR WORLD SERIES BRUSH By LEO H. PETERSEN United Preu Sporti Editor Brooklyn OJ.PJ Manager Casey Stengel of the New York Yankees, trying to even the World Series against the Brook lyn Dodgers at one game all, changed his lineup today for the second game, delayed 24 hours by Thursday's rain. Hoping to get more batting power, he benched first baseman Bill Skowron and third baseman Andy Carey and put the left handed hitting Joe Collins and the veteran Gerry Coleman in their places. Stengel call on Don Larsen, an 11-game winner who pitched his best ball toward the close of the season, to face Don New combe, the Dodgers 27-game winner. It was a clear, sunny day, but there was a strong chilly wind blowing in from left field toward home plate. Adlai Attends Adlal E. Stevenson, the Demo cratic presidential candidate, en tered Ebbets field and was es corted to a box near the Dodger dugout. Joining him in the box were Gov. and Mrs. Averell Harriman, Mayor and Mrs. Rob ert Wagner and Walter O'Mal ley, president of the Dodgers. Managers Casey Stengel of the Yankees and Walter Alston of Brooklyn went over to meet Ste venson and posed with him for photographers. First Stevenson posed with Stengel's cap on, then with Al ston's cap and finally wore both caps. Later he threw out the first ball, as President Eisenhower did for the opening series game here Wednesday. Newcombe, the major league's top winning pitcher this year with 27 victories, was out to crack a personal Series jinx and thus give the Dodgers a com manding two-game lead in the classic. Larsen won only 11 games but was the Yankees' best pitcher In the last days of the regular season. Both hurlers were the. orig inal pitching choices before rain postponed the se c o n d game Thursday. Helps Dodgers The rainout was viewed as favorable to the Dodgers, inas much as it gave 39-year-old Sal Maglie, the dramatic 6-3 victor over the Yankees in Wednesday's SOC Jayvee Tiff Billed Ashland Southern Oregon college and Humboldt State col lege junior varsity football clubs will tangle at 2 p.m. Saturday on the Ashland school's field. Humboldt with an overall turnout of some 60 players will bring a group of players who rank below the top 33 of its squad. Some 20 players turned out last Monday for the SOC jayvee crew. Coach Al Akins hasn't mentioned any names but has in dicated that a couple of the jay vees will be up with the varsity if they continue to show as well as they have in practice so far this week. Pioneer, Coyote Gridmen Tussle By UNITED PRESS Defending co-champion Lewis and Clark and College of Idaho tangle at Caldwell Sturaday in a game which could decide the 1956 Northwest Conference foot ball crown. Each team holds two wins this season, one each in conference play. There is one other counting contest In the Northwest loop. This sends Willamette to Forest Grove Saturday night to meet Pacific. Linfield entertains the Seattle Ramblers and Whitman has an open date. TRADE BAIT? New York 4U.R) Gale Paul, vice president and general man ager of the Cincinnati Redlegs, today declined to comment on a report that first baseman Ted Kluszewski of the Redlegs has been offered as trade bait to other National league teams. opener, an extra day of rest but out that Newcombe is a pin-point the oddsmakers still are sticking with the Yankees. They've made today's game a pick 'em affair but made the Yankees 11-10 favorites to take the Series. It was assumed that the extra day of rest would help New combe, who last pitched on Sun day, but the big pitcher and Alston weren't too sure that would be the case. Both pointed control pitcher who is sometimes affected by too much rest. Alston indicated he was toying with idea of starting Clem La bine, Brooklyn's regular-season relief specialist, in Saturday's third game if he is not needed in relief today. Labine started two games in the late stages of the hectic National League pen nant race.

Slaughter May Receive Full Share Brooklyn U.K) Enos (Coun try) Slaughter, already voted a half-share by his Yankee team mates, can make it a full one with a "good series" and if he does, he'll have Casey Stengel to thank. Generous as usual in their splitting up of the World Series melon, the Yankee players de cided to give Slaughter half a share even though he joined them from Kansas City on Aug. 26 and appeared in only 23 games for the Yanks. Stengel, long an admirer of Slaughter's hustle and his 100 per cent effort for any club he has played with, felt Enos de served a full share and told the players so. It was finally decid ed to wait and see how the 40- year-old ex-Cardinal performed against the Dodgers in the series. Unaware Slaughter, unaware of Casey's intercession for him because he wasn't present when the shares were being voted, got off to a fine start against Brooklyn in the opener Wednesday, rapping out three hits even though the Yankees lost. In order to change their origi nal vote and award Slaughter a full share, the Yankees would have to call another meeting among themselves following the series. Although the procedure would be unusual, there is no sule forbidding it. Sidelights On Series RUNS IN RAIN Brooklyn U.R) The only ballplayers who set a foot on the diamond in Ebbetts field Thurs day was Dodger pitcher Don Newcombe, who donned his uni form and ran around the field in the rain for about 15 minutes. "He always wants to run," com mented Manager Walt Alston. FURILLO USES HEAT PAD Brooklyn (U.R) Dodger out fielder Carl Furillo spent Thurs day's "day off" from the World Series with a heating pad on his back. Furillo complained of a stiff muscle in his right side "like something that won't stretch when it's supposed to." MAGLIE ON SUNDAY Brooklyn U.R) Dodger Manager Walter Alston still is planning on starting Sal Maglie in Sunday's game in the World Series "if he's ready" only now it will be the fourth game of the series instead of the fifth. That means Sal could be ready for a possible seventh game with two days rest. FEWER PHONE CALLS Brooklyn U.R) The New York Telephone company today reported that phone calls from folks wanting to know the World Series score are slightly less in number than last year. The company has a special number you can call for the cor rect time and added on three times a minute the operator also gives the score of the game. For this year's opening game, 154, 803 calls were made compared to 184,564 for opening game last year and the all-time record of 247,129 in one day during the 1951 series. SCUDERA OUT Washington (U.R) Halfback Joe Scudero, of the Washington Redskins, one of the fastest safety men in the National Foot ball league, will be out of ac tion against the Philadelphia Eagles this Saturday night be cause of an injury suffered against Pittsburgh last week.

"No World Series game has ever been stopped short of nine innings," Frick pointed out. "And I believe it's part of my job to see that every series game goes the full distance so that no team can ever feel that it was beaten by the weather." Frick called off Thursday's scheduled second game at 11:07 a.m. EDT after a 10-minute con ference with the six umpires and rival Managers Walt Alston and Casey Stengel. Only the com missioner has the authority to delay the start of a Series game or postpone it. Grants Pass Cops Harrier Encounter Grants Pass defeated the Med ford high cross-country team 19 to 36 Wednesday in a IVi-mile run at Grants Pass. Terry Boatman, GP, nosed Les Linp'cheit, Medford, by two feet for. first place. Time was slow at 6:28.8 as the Tornado strategy of forcing Boatman to lead al most paid off. Lingscheit gave the Caveman a good race but couldn't quite make it when he tried to pass on the last lap. GP took third, fourth, fifth and sixth in the race. Medford took the next counting spots with Jay Mullen seventh, Mark Norton and Roger Johnson dead heating for eighth and Glenn Kave takine 10th. Coach Vern Wolthoff said that the result was not discouraging considering the late start in training for harriers here this fall.
