Coaches Approve Modification of Free Shot Rule Major Loop Clubs To Play Before California Fans; Redlegs Thump Yanks 9-2 Bt EARL WRIGHT United Press Sports Writer California fans, who hope to have major league baseball with in three years, get a look at the brand of game they're bidding for in exhibitions tonight at San Francisco and San Diego. The San Francisco Seals of the Pacific Coast league open a three-game series with the Bos ton Red Sox and expect to draw about 20,000 fans for each con test. The Cleveland Indians and New York Giants carry their pre- Tornado Baseballers Go To Yreka This Saturday RACE OFFER MADE Annapolis Md. (U.R) Don ald Lillis, president of Bowie race track, has offered the state of Maryland $1,000,000 for half of Pimlico's 40 racing dates if Pimlico is abandoned. Medford high's baseball nine, plays its season opener at Yreka, Calif., on Saturday afternoon, and will make the trip short on practice under game conditions. Coach John Wovenz said that the Tornado has been trying since Monday to have a squad game but has been prevented from such drill by weather and field conditions. Today was the last chance for the Medfordites to work in an inter-squad ruckus. The Black Tornado will enter the Yreka mix with possibly five lettermen in the line-up and with two others slated for duty before the game is over. Letter- men among likely starters are Dennis King, first base, Larry Perkins, second base, Gordon Ows'ey. shortstop, and Steve Shorey. rignt field, all seniors, and Ron Peery, centerfield, jun ior. Payne, Wisely Billed Others on the opening crew may be John Payne, left field, and Steve Wisely, third base, seniors with American Legion junior ball experience, and Bob Pond, sophomore catcher. A pair of sophomores, Tom Lawrence and Dennis Barr, may handle the pitching over the first four innings, with Ernie Tyler, letter- man senior, billed for the last two.

He has been out only a couple of days and up to yesterday had not caught for batting practice. Dick Monroe, infielder, and Dick Barlow, outfielders, are sophomores among those slated to make the California trip. Kovenz remarked that the Tornado diamonders should do all right this year if they con tinue to come along and are not hampered by injuries. His squad has more depth than last year because of a group of prom ising sophomores. However, it lacks experience overall in pitch ing and in the outfield. To Play Roseburg McLaughlin probably will be called upon for some pitching this year. Wovenz was to go to Ashland today for a meeting to work out the Southern Oregon conference schedule which is being whacked from 16 to eight games. Home season opener for Tor nado players is next Thursday when the junior varsity meets the Jacksonville varsity. On Saturday, March 30, Medford en tertains Roseburg. The double- header will be of considerable interest because of the number of Indian players who were on Roseburg's American Legion nine last summer. Roseburg was third in the nation. Kansas City, Mo. (U.R) Col lege basketball coaches today had all but killed most of the one-and-one free throw rule in efforts to "halt the parade to the free throw line. The coaches, at their 31st an nual convention, voted 77-23 Thursday to adopt a modification of the rule along lines used in the Big Ten conference this past season. Under that setup the one-and- one applies only after a team has committed six fouls in each half. Research.showed that it usually was 13 to 15 minutes before teams committed six fouls, and since a half lasts 20 minutes, this would do away with the one-and- one for about three-fourths of the game. The one-and-one rule, de signed to make a foul more cost ly, has been in effect only one year. It provides that if a player fouled while not in the act of shooting makes his first free throw -he gets a "bonus" try. The coaches' recommendations will go to the National Rules committee which meets here Sunday and Monday. Approval by the rules committee is almost automatic. Grants Pass Has Depth in Cinder Crew Grants Pass Grants Pass high Cavemen again are expect ed to be chief contenders along with Medford for track and field laurels in Southern Oregon. The Cavemen and mentor Russ Werner base much of their hope on 19 lettermen among the 70 athletes seeking berths on the club. There is plenty of indica tion of depth which will serve the Climate city crew well in Rogue and Hayward relay comp etition. 1 The pole vault looms as a strong event for FP. Werner has four men capable of clearing 12 feet. Among them is Phil Paquin, the 1956 state Utlist Boatman Back With the squad again is Terry Boatman, district champ two years running in the mile. Paul Cougle is another letterman mil- er. Also on' the squad is Jim Maryott, double winner in the state AAU hurdles last June Monogram wearers include Chuck Rembert in the hurdles; Mike Rose and Bob Allerheili- gen in the shot-put and discus; Art Strunk and Jeff Loper in the sprints; Walt Morrison and Tom Putnam in the 880; Paul Lindquist irf the 440; Fred Thom as, Jim Smith and Bob Fowler in the high jump; and Rex Bag gerly in the javelin; Stan Luman and Mike Sparlin in pole vault, SCHKDLLE: March 30.

Braves Also Blast Away At Tampa, shortstop Johnny Logan and outfielder Wes Cov ington each hit three homers and accounted for all the Mil waukee runs as the Braves de feated the Chicago White Sox, 10-7.
