Arm Forces Newcombe to
Leave Mound
By UNITED PRESS
The Brooklyn Dodgers are
right back today where they
were at the close of the world
series wondering "What's with
Don Newcombe"
The big 27-game winner and
NL "most valuable player"
O walked off the mound during
Monday's batting practice at
Vero Beach, Fla., and complained
of the same elbow soreness which
he said bothered him in the
series. Newcombe said the pain
was not as serious as last autumn
andQhe did not seem especially
concernea over me uiiin.
Dr. IWrold Wendler. the club
trainer also said he believed the
injury was not serious although
he conceded, "He'll have to take
rest and heat treatment and
there's really no way of telling
how long he'll be sidelined."
Sore arm miseries also hit

MAIL TRIBUNE
state tournament from the con-
ference and district sewed up,
the two tussles are in a sense
anticlimactic. Mcdford, however-
does have a slim chance to
gain a tie for the league title and
there will be the matter of pres
tige and lively traditional rival
ry. And, Grants Pass, in particu
lar, would like to add to its mea
ger total of four victories so far
in the loop.
Medford, no matter what hap- f
pens, is sure of second place and
Grants Pass can have no better
thn fourth in the loop.
Vmal Tir
Coach Frank Roelandt of the
Tornado may call upon his usual
starters, an all senior combina
tion of Dick McLaughlin, Dick
Copple. Neil Plumley, Dick Puhl
and Larry Perkins. Other sen
iors on the squad are Larry
Slessler, Steve Wisely and Mike
Stearns.
Grants Pass mentor Ray Davis
has consistently varied his start
ing quintet through the season.
If he uses the same choices that
he made for the games on the
week end with Klamath Falls,
he'll call on Mike Sparlin, Bruce
Marks, Larry Henderson, Jim
Smith and Chuck Lasher or Lar
ry Walker.
Cellar-dwelling Crater goes to
Klamath Falls for the other
Closing Tuesday-Wednesday se
ries in the league. While the
Comets with only two wins in
the loop, both in double over
times, will be out to salvage
some glory from the campaign,
the Pelicans will be heavily fa
vored to sweep the series.
It would take two stunning
upsets by the Comets over KF
and two wins by Medford over
the Cavemen to enable Medford
to tie Klamath Falls for the loop
and district diadems.
Polish Offense
Crater worked last week, al
though the Comets with a bye
took it easy, was aimed at pol
ishing the offense which has
been a weak point. The Comets
also took measures to strengthen
its rebound positioning. Proba
ble starters for Crater are Bill
White, Fred Herrmann, Craig
Cochran, Joe Teeter and Don
Goyette. The series will be the
last in basketball at Crater High
for four seniors, Herrmann, Goy
ette, John Greb and Dick Davis.
Larry White, another senior, has
his ankle in a cast after turning
it last Friday. He will make the
trip. Coach Jim NaU said.
Klamath Coach Don Peterson
will name his starters from
among Ken Douglas, Bob Niles,
Cliff Sutherland, Glenn Moore,
Butch Kimpton and Lee McGill.
at Bum Camp
Chicago Cubs who had similar
trouble late last season. Banks
trouble was diagnosed as a slight

meanwhile, listed the St. Louis
Cardinals' lineup for their first
exhibition game of the spring
next Saturday and manager Jack
Tighe conceded the Detroit Ti
gers are attempting to swing a
deal for ' a fourth starting
pitcher.
The Cardinals will have Don
Blasingame leading off followed
by Alvin Dark, Stan Musial, Del

Play in Medford
Ordinary Quintet
It could be a top drawer at
traction when the Medford
grade school teachers play host
to the world champion girls'
team, the All-American Red
Heads at Hedrick gym at 8 p.m.

most popular team, nationally
and internationally famous, the
Red Heads have playied to more
than 5,000,000 fans in U.S.A.,
Canada, Mexico and the Philip
pine Islands in the past and
played "Top of the World Tour"
to Alaska in October, 1956.
The Red Heads have been fea
tured in national publications
like: Life, Collier's, Pic, Sport
ing News, Sports Life, Southern
Coach, Athlete Graphic, Sir,
Glance, etc. So when you pay
your money to the game you're
paying to see the queens of big
time basketball,
The girls have acquired a fine
reputation for mirthful comedy
and novelty presentations along
with good basketball. They dis
play fancy passing and trick
shooting.
The men's team, captained by
Loren Soderlund, will represent
the junior highs and the various
grade schools of the district.
Proceeds will go to the Med
ford City Teachers association
for their fund to help Sick or in
