Al Lopez Denies Sox Dying;
Predicts They Can Take NY
Tampa, Fla. (U.R) New Man
ager Al Lopez vigorously de
nied the Chicago White Sox are
"a dying ball club" and insisted
today "they can take the Yan
kees next year with a little
help."
Lopez, who agreed to a one
year contract with the White
Sox Monday for approximately
the same $40,000 he received
for managing the Cleveland In
dians this year, will fly to Chi
cago today to confer with Vice
President Charles Comiskey re
garding selection of coaches,
possible player trades and other
business affairs.
Before departing from his
home here, however, the 48-year-
old Lopez said he completely
disagreed with the consensus
that the White Sox, who finished
third this year, are headed for
the second division. Even Marty
Marlon hinted that when he left
as manager of the club last
week.
Coming Club
"In my opinion, the White Sox
are a coming club, not a dying
one," Lopez said. "They piayed
better baseball against my Cleve
land club than any other team
In the league. Chicago beat the
Indians 15 out of 22 times. No
other club ever had that good
a record against Cleveland since
Bull Montana,
Roy Heffernan
Rematch Billed
Grants Pass Roy Heffernan
and Bull Montana go at it again
Wednesday night in the wrestl
ing arena at the Josephine coun
ty fairgrounds.
Heffernan, the big. powerful
wrestling dynamo from Aus
tralia, got a bad break last week
when he rammed into referee
Elton Owen and this led to his
defeat at the hands of Montana.
This was Heffernans first loss
since coming to the northwest
and he immediately issued a
. challenge and put up $100 on
the side that he coujd take
Montana with the referee on the
outside to call only the falls.
The match was made but only
after a lot of growling by the
Bull. Montana said that he had
clobbered the Aussie twice but
had lost one on an undeserved
disqualification
Shaken Up
Matchmaker Owen who was
slightly cut and badly shaken
up last week, said that he want
ed no part of refereeing this
one. He has decided to put both
Red Hastien and Bill Fletcher
on opposite corners with orders
to keep them in the ring and call
only the falls.
Both of these big men will be
going all out in this rubber
match to see who is top banana
in the Northwest. Extra seats
will be set up to take care of
the expected crowd.
The special event will see
Fletcher putting his local win
streak on the line against his
toughest opposition to date in
the person of Hastien. Hastien
is fast and experienced and will
be favored.
the first year I managed there
when New York beat us pretty
good."
While on the subject of the
world champion Yankees, Lopez
said "they are a good club, but
they can be had. We proved that
in 1954 with Cleveland. If we
can get a little help I think we
can take the Yankees and go all
the way."
