May Ask Fans
To Return Balls
Portland W Northwest
league officials, plagued by poor
attendance, may ask fans to re
turn baseballs hit into grand
stands to help keep the circuit
solvent.
Team officials of the six mem
ber loop met behind closed
doors here Sunday to discuss
poor attendance.
Bad Weather
Jim Fleishman, league presi
dent, said bad weather was
blamed for the attendance lag
early in the season. He said an
average paid attendance of 10.
000 per game was needed to
keep teams in the black.
Two recommendations which
came out of the meeting were to
ask fans to return baseballs hit
into the stands and that the
league's salary limit be strictly
adhered to.
It was left up to individual
teams to decide whether to ask
fans to return baseballs hit into
the stands. The average team
spends about S3.000 a year on
baseballs, it was said.

Homers Bounce Like Golf Balls
In Wild Day in Coast League
By SCOTT BAILLIE
United Press Sports Writer
The Pacific Coast league re
sembled a driving range today
as the aftermath of a wild Sun
day in which a total of 45 pitch
ers trooped to and from the
mound while home runs
bounced around like golf balls.
When the last drop of hot
water was used up in the show
ers, the San Francisco Seals had
pulled ahead to a 21 2 game lead
over fading Vancouver with the
aid of Eddie Sadowski's clutch
home run one of the 16 which
ran the outfielders ragged
throughout the league.
Not that the Seals exactly
looked like pennant contenders.
They committed s i x errors
while losing to Sacramento, 8-7,
in the twilight opener. But Sa
dowski's home run in the ninth
inning of the overtime nightcap
gave them a 3-2 victory and it
was a big one. For during the
afternoon Hollywood had swept
a twin bill from the Mounties,
2-0 and 5-3.
In other PCL action, Seattle
ran its winning streak to six and
moved into fourth place by bop
ping Portland, 12-5 and 5-3. San
Diego and Los Angeles split. The
Padres exploded for 18 hits in
the first game to win 12-7. Los
Angeles took the nightcap, 7-4.
A total of 49 hits rang out in
this twin bill, including eight
circuit clouts with two of them
by the Padres' Dave Pope. He
had a man on in each game.
Third Unguarded
The Seals tied the opener in
the ninth inning when Bill Ren
na and Harry Malmberg
pounced on Earl Harrist for a
pair of two run homers. But
southpaw Jack Spring threw to
an unguarded third base in the
Sacramento half and that let
Nippy Jones score with the win
ning run, along with Harrist's
second win in eight decisions.
Sadowski's clout cinched the
overtime nightcap in the ninth
inning and Leo Kiley's eighth
win. Joe Stanka went the route
for the loss.
Curt Raydon (6-5) of Holly
wood was the lone pitcher to
show much of anything. He
Congress Starts
Hearing Today
On Pro Sports
Washington (IP) Congress
began hearins pros and cons to
day on proposed government
regulation of professional sports.
A house judiciary subcommit
tee will open hearings aimed at
determining whether baseball,
football, basketball, hockey and
boxing should come under the
federal anti-trust laws.
The seven lawyers on the sub
committee will hear testimony
from athletes, club owners,
league officials, sports writers
and others. The hearings are ex
pected to last several weeks.
Major league baseball, long
exempted from the anti-trust
laws by a supreme court deci
sion, will get the investigators'
attention for the first two weeks.
Then pro football will move into
the spotlight.
Chairman Emanuel Celler (D
N.Y.) said the purpose of the
inquiry is to shed more light on
how the sports operate, and de
termine whether they are pre
dominantly sports or businesses.
"We're going to lift up the
buckskin and pigskin curtains
and see what makes these sports
tick," Celler told a reporter.
"There's a good deal the public
doesn't know about them."
Congress' current interest
stems largely from a 6-3 deci
sion by the Supreme Court last
Feb. 26 refusing to give profes
sional football the same anti
trust immunity enjoyed over the
years by organized baseball.
The court in 1922 put baseball
in a unique niche by ruling that
it is a business but not in inter
state commerce. It reaffirmed
this position four years ago.
Stanford Crew
Beats Wisconsin
Madison, Wis. IP) Stanford,
using a borrowed shell from the
University of Wisconsin, surged
ahead about a quarter of a
length from the finish to hand
the Badgers their third loss of
the season today.
The West Coast oarsmen were
behind at the start, but gradual
ly caught up. The lead changed
several times before Stanford
finally pulled ahead.
Daily's U-Drive
Medford Airport
blanked the Mounties with five
hits in the opener and also took
the league lead in strikeouts by
boosting his total to 65. Jim
Baume's pinch hit homer in the
sixth inning of the second game
with Dick Smith aboard brought
the sweep and dropped Don Fer
rarese to his first loss.
Bevan Drives In Three
Hal Bevan drove in three runs
to help Seattle down Portland
in the opener and cinch the first
PCL victory for Russ Meyer,
the old National league storm
center, who came on in relief.
Bob Anderson, the first of four
Beaver pitchers to work, took
his eighth loss.
A two-run pinch double by
Ray Orteig proved to be the
winning clout for Seattle in the
finale and helped Duane Pillette
to his seventh win. George
Wayne Lemley Has Sweep
In Hardtop Auto Program
Wayne Lemley didn't spare the
horsepower Saturday night in
giving a mighty boost to his
track leadership in hard top auto
racing at Valley View speedway.
He came out on top in all the
competition he entered, climax
ing the evening with triumph in
a hectic spin-out filled and rhubarb-marked
main event. Lemley
also had the fast time in the tri
als, won the scamper for a A
trophy and was victor in the
fourth heat race.
Helping make it a family af
fair, Wayne's brother, Doyce,
copped the B trophy dash.
Bob Rose was winner of the
semi-main after a whale of a
scrap with Elmer Sisemore. Bob
Jenkins won the second heat,
Lou Kurz the third and Joe Elli
son the first.
Wayne Lemley went in front
in the main after Crock Hunter
had spun out on the 14th lap.
There was contention that Lem
ley's A-57 machine had some
thing to do with Hunter's spin
in 15-x and a beef ensued. Track
officials didn't see it the same
and A-57 headed off the restart.
For the first time in this sea
son's program a driver from out
side the Rogue Valley Racing as
sociation didn't take the main.
However, Klamath Falls and
Roseburg drivers were not on
hand for the evening. Klamath
reportedly was having its own
race. A usual delegation from
California was present.
Monte Hall was second in the
main with is M-16, Bob Wilcox
took third in M-3 and Rose
fourth in M-5. There were about
a half-dozen spin-outs in the 25
lap finale. Most sensational oc
curred when Jenkins in M-4
whirled and almost upset Kurz
in M-7. Two wheels of M-7 rose
high in the air but Kurz had his
machine under control in short
order.
In the semi Sisemore in M-43
took advantage of a restart to get
the lead in the sixth lap. A simi
lar situation enabled Rose to pull
in to second on the ninth time
around. Rose went ahead on the
13th go-round and see-sawed
with Sisemore before going into
the lead to stay in the 15-Iap-aper.
Wee Williams lost a wheel
from M-33 in the race, the sec
ond time a wheel came off for
him during the evening.

Man Survives
5 Days in Boat
Monterery, Calif. W A 35-year-old
salmon fisherman who
survived a five-day ordeal in a
drifting boat considered today
that two strikes and he might
have been out.
Instead, the first of Jack
Coats' remaining two matches
struck fire to a distress signal,
and he was saved.
"I was in a bad way," Coats
said of his close call with death.
He had drifted for more than
200 miles, from Mendocino,
Calif., to Monterery, in his dis
abled 36-foot boat, the Gojac,
while the Coast Guard searched
for him. He had no food except
a few vitamin pills, a mouldy
piece of bread left over from
iast season's fishing and a few
quarts of brackish water also
left over from last season.
Finally Coats sighted the U. S.
destroyer George Anderson Sun
day morning.
"I was down to two matches,
but I was ready," Coats said. "I
had soaked my shirt with gaso
line and I had tied it to a stick.
"When I saw the lights, com
ing down there in the dark, I
knew it was now or never."
The shirt blazed brightly and
the Anderson came alongside.
But Coats refused to abandon
ship the source of his livli
hood. The Anderson notified the
Coast Guard which sent a cutter
to tow Coats and his boat to
port.

Evelyn R I think Peggy is
having an affair.
William R She wouldn't do
that.
Evelyn R. We live in a small
farm community and our three
children have moved to cities
Two are married, but our young
est, Peggy, is not. She is 25 and
has been living away from home
since she started college.
Peggy has a boy friend whom
she has been going with for
the past four years. He is of a
different faith. We were very
upset about this and my husband
said that he never wanted to see
her again if she married this
boy.
I am afraid that because of
these threats. Peggy has been
having an affair with this boy
She never really tells anything
about herself and what she Is
doing in her letters or when
she comes to see us.
I would be very unhappy to
see Peggy marry outside of her
faith, but 1 feel it would be
better than this. I feel we should
tell her we are willing to ac
cept the boy. My husband is
against it.
William R Peggy has grown
very far away from us, but I
am sure she can't have so far
turned her back on everything
we have instilled in her tha
she would have an affair with
a man. At heart, she is a very
good, simple girl and I know
that she loves us and cares
about her religion.
This is why I feel it is best
to hold out and stand our
ground. In tne long run I know
that Peggy would not marry
anyone we don't accept. My wif
spoils her by being too soft
hearted. My wife met this boy and
says he doesn't seem a bad sort
I think it was a mistake for
her to even meet him. I refused
because standing firm is the best
policy.
The last time we saw Peggy
she looked very unhappy and
not at all well. The best thing
for her to do is to come home
and marry a boy of our own
sort from this community. When
I tell her these things, she just
walks away and says I don't
"understand."
The Council: William prides
himself on his firmness, but he
is really softer than his wife
in the wrong place. His head.
He has the maturity and ex
perience to know that many
a "good simple girl" has gone
wrong, but the fact is too harsh
for him to face. He prefers to
blur it and brazen things out
with a tough exterior.
It is possible that Peggy still
retains her early standards, but
certainly she is having difficulty
with her personal life and is
treading dangerous ground. She
has nowhere to turn for guid
ance because her parents have
shut the door to understanding
Evelyn is no more ready than
her husband to open that door i
