TEN MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Tueiday. October 23, 195S Hank Aaron Leads Balloting on UP National League All-Star Team; Four Redlegs Named By CARL LUNDQUIST United Presi Sporli Writer New York .U.R) i'our play ers from the Cincinnati Redlegs, two eaeS from the Brooklyn Dodgers, Milwaukee Braves and St. Louis Cardinals, and one lrom the New York Giants were named today to the annual Unit ed Press National League AU Star team. The honor squad, selected by 81 sports writers from the vari ous league cities, is one of the most powerful ever to be named. The hitters batted in a total of 7S1 runs this past season and drilled a total of 228 homers. Hank Aaron, the National league batting king from Mil waukee with a .328 average, led the balloting with a total of 58 out of 61 votes. Another out fielder, Duke Snider of Brook lyn, was next with 49 votes and catcher Ed Bailey from Cincin nati ranked third with 48. Name Utility Star Because of unusual circum stances, the United Press for the first time selected a utility all star, Stan Musial of the Cardi nals. Musial received a total of 18 outfield and 16 first base votes. This combined total would have put him ahead of rookie Frank Robinson of Cincinnati, who had 29, and first baseman Ted Kluszewski of Cincinnati, who had 32. Since Musial played both positions, he was designat ed as a utility member of the team. Red Schoendienst, veteran sec ond baseman for the New York Giants, who has been a peren nial member of the team, was selected for that spot with 31 votes, while Roy McMillan of Cincinnati was named at short stop with 30 and Ken Boyer of St. Louis at third with a total of 44 votes. The pitchers were Don New combe of Brooklyn, who had 47 votes, and Warren Spahn of Mil waukee, who totaled 38. There was a big turnover from last year's All-Star team. Only Snider, Kluszewski, Schoen dienst, Musial and Newcombe were repeaters. Musial RBI Leader Musial was the leader of the squad in runs batted in with 109 , and Snider set the homer pace average was more than offset by with 43. There were six .300 plus hitters led by Aaron's .328. Musial was at .310. Boyer .306, Kluszewski and Schoendienst. .302, and Bailey .300 even. Sni der his .290 and Robinson .292, leaving only McMillan as a bat ting "weakling'' but his .263 his spectacular fielding. Besides Musial, both Kluszewski and Snider topped the 100 RBI mark, Klu with 102 and Duke with 101. Boyer just missed with 98 and Aaron had 93. Newcombe with a 27-7 won lost record was the bigegst vic tory man in the majors and Spahn with a 20-11 mark record ed his seventh season at 20 or more victories. There was only one close race for a position. That was at shortstop, where McMillan beat Ernie Banks of the Cubs by four votes.

College Football Career of Jon Arnett Ends Saturday; Ranks 3rd in USC Play By SCOTT BAILLE United Press Sports Writer San Francisco (U,R) A bril- lian college football career will be abruptly snuffed out late next Saturday afternoon when the final gun ends Jon Arnett's playing days for Southern Cali fornia. The Ail-American halfback, who now ranks third among the school's all-time ground gainers, was among numerous gridders made ineligible as the result of last summer's West Coast grid iron investigation. Later, the Pacific Coast Con ference brass relented and al lowed seniors who had been trapped in the upheaval to play any five games in a row. End Of Lin Arnett became a "first fiver" for Coach Jess Hill and reaches the end of the line Saturday against Stanford. There will be no Jon Arnett around to carry the mail when the Trojans go up against such traditional op ponents as UCLA and Notre Dame. He made his final appearance in the Los Angeles Coliseum last Saturday where a crowd of 44.749 gave him a standing ova tion after he ended the day with 157 yards gained against Wash ington. That brought his 25-game rush ing total to 1.781 yards and he edged ahead of Morley Drury. "the noblest Trojan of them all" for third spot among the school's all-time ground gainers. Orville Mohler tops the select list with 2028, or 247 more than Arnett now has. Jon is only 108 away from Gus Shaver, who is second with 1889. And so "give the ball to Arnett"may be the order of the! day when the angry Trojans seek to humiliate a Stanford foe which not only upset them last fall but which voted for strict en forcement of the rules- when Southern California walked the carpet. Yet is is only by a change of heart that Arnett is playing at all. When the probe was at its peak last July, he indicated he might drop out of school and even said he would advise high school prospects to steer clear of the Pacific Conference. But he stayed on and next Satur day could be his greatest. The Southern California-Stanford game is the top one of the day along the Pacific slope. In others, UCLA is at Oregon State, California at Washington, Ore gon at Pittsburg, Washington State at College of the Pacific, San Jose State at Arizona Tempe State and Idaho at Utah. FIRST AND ONLY Right halfback Dean Derby of Washing ton is brought down by USC's Ernie Zampese (20) after Derby picked up six yards on the play in the first quarter of action that saw Washington make the first score of the game. The Trojans came back to swamp Washington, 35-7.

Eagle Point and Illinois Valley Morris Is UP Top Man In Backfield New York (U.R) Tommy Morris of Princeton, a rangy triple-threat out of Columbus, Ohio, was named today as top man in the United Press back-field-of-the-week for one of those dazzling performances most col lege football stars only dream about. In the best tradition of his im mediate predecessors, Dick Kaz mair and Royce Flippin, Morris had a hand in every point as Princeton three times roared from behind to top Colgate last Saturday, 28-20. He scored three times, passed to one touchdown, held the ball on all conversions, made a game-saving pass inter ception and set up the final score with a nifty punt that dropped near Colgate's goal. For that, Morris was first choice among the week's big four in . college football follow ed by Gene Newton of Tulane, Don Watson of Texas A&M and Boby Cox of Minnesota. recover so he could redeem him self with Japanese fans before he returns home. Newcombe disclosed that he injured his right elbow in the last game of the regular season against the Pittsburgh Pirates. He was knocked out of the box ! twice during the series and again in Hawaii and in Japan on j the Dodgers' current exhibition tour. j No Treatment Newcombe told United Press in a telephone interview from i Sapporo, Hokkaido, northern most Japan, he was not leaving , for the United States for treat ment. "I am leaving it up to the trainer to see what he can do for me," Newcombe said. "I've; had arm trouble a couple of times before." An over capacity crowd of j 45,000 turned out last Sunday at Tokyo's Koraukuen Stadium to see the National League 27 game winner start against an : all-Japan team. They were' shocked when Newcombe was I knocked out in the first inning i without getting a man out. He ! walked the first man and then allowed four consecutive hits, one of them a two-run homer. Dodd Takes Lady's PGA Lawton, Okla.

St. Mary's of Medford will aim to wrap up its third straight Jackson County B league cham pionship. Medford travels to Ashland and is the choice to win by a considerable margin. Grants Pass goes to Klamath Falls and rates as favorite although prog nosticators aren't conceding the Cavemen the game. The Eagle-Cougar ruckus will be at Eagle Point and is figured as a toss-up.
