Johnny Podres Out
May. Plague Pitching Effectiveness
By DAVID M. MOFFITT
Norfolk, Va. (U.R) Lefty
Johnny Podres was out of the
Navy Saturday, medically dis
charged because of the same
back injury he had when he was
inducted, and which had plagued
him throughout his pitching ca
reer wit the Brooklyn Dodgers
In fact, E. J. (Buzzy) Bavasi,
general manager of the Dodgers,
said in Brooklyn he was con
cerned over whether Podres
could regain his pitching effect
iveness.
Plenty of Trouble
"All I can hope now is that
his back is not in any worse
shape than it was when he left
us to go into the service," Ba
vasi said. Because he always
had plenty of trouble with it.'
Podres, who pitched the Dodg
ers to their one and only world
championship against the Yan
kees in 1955 with 8-3 and 2-0
victories, received his medical
discharge after a three-man med
ical survey board at the Ports
mouth Naval hospital ruled to
release him Friday afternoon.
Not Heard From
Podres disappeared quickly
after being released and was
out of contact with friends at
this vast naval base. Dodger of
ficials said they had not heard
from him and his parents at
Witherbee, N. Y., said they had
not even heard that he had been
discharged.
A spokesman at the hospital
described Podres' chronic condi
tion as a "spondylolisthesis
sympton" which was not likely
to affect his pitching

The first score of the game
went to UCLA as Barry Billing
ton battered through the left
side of the Beaver line from 11
yards out with 1:37 left in the
first period. UCLA never threat
ened after that.
Rain Threatens
A crowd of 17,000 homecom
ing fans braved threatening
weather in the opei stands of
Parker stadium to witness the
contest. Rain held off until
early in the fourth quarter and
then began falling on already
soggy field.
Prothro sent in a complete
new team late in the third
period and the fresh troops im
mediately ground out the third
Beaver touchdown.
Both teams stuck to the
ground throughout the game and
seldom took to the air. How
ever, a 22-yard aerial from Paul
Lowe to Bob Degrant in the
final seconds of the first period
set up the first Oregon State
touchdown.
The win was the first for Ore
gon State over the Bruins since
1948 and also marked the first
time that the Beavers have been
able to score on UCLA since
1950.
UCLA could not muster a
serious drive after its initial
penetration in the first period.
The Oregon State line, outcharg
ing UCLA, broke through con
tinually to throw Bruin backs
for losses that bogged down any
drive before it could get off the
ground.
Lowe and Earnel Durden, the
fastest men on the field, con
tinually swept around the Bruin
defense while Berry worked on
the middle.
Durden streaked through the
left side of the UCLA line late
in the first period and raced
from his own 25 to the Bruin
24 where the last man between
him and the goal line finally
stopped him as the quarter gun
sounded. It took only three
plays, one of them Lowe's pass
to Degrant to get the equaliz
ing touchdown.
Buzz Randall recovered a
UCLA fumble midway through
the second quarter and 18 plays
