North All Star Team
Los Angeles v Most of
the top talent in the Pacific
Coast league takes the field to
night in the annual North-South
All-Star Came at Wrigley field.
The South holds a firm upper
hand in the rival series. In nine
previous All-Star games, the
southerners have won seven.
However, tonight the South
will be minus two of its bat
swinging stars, Steve Bilko and
Jim Baxes, both of Los Angeles
Both originally were named by
fans to start in the game but
since have been sidelined with
injuries.
Charlie Metro of Vancouver is
managing the northern team
while Clay Bryant of Los An
geles is the pilot of the south
erners. Metro named Morrie
Martin (7-2) of Vancouver to
start for the North while the
South will rely on Hollywood
mound ace Bennie Daniels (10-2)
The last North - South game
was held in 1950. In the past
two seasons the previous year's
pennant winner met an AII
Star team from the rest of the
league.

New York ro? Baseball
Commissioner Ford Frick said
today that the method of select
ing the All-Star teams would
be discussed at the major league
winter meetings as result of the
Cincinnati ballot box stuffing
and it seems obvious that there
are at least two better systems.
The fan pays the baseball
freight and it would be ideal
if he could fairly select the All-
Star team. But the way they
did it in Cincinnati made old
Tammany Hall look like a bunch
of amateurs and proved that
as of the moment it's a com
plete farce.
Frick admits that something
will have to be done to "tighten
it up" and there are two good
ways to come up with better
teams.
Let Big Leaguers Do It
The first would be to let the
managers choose the All-Star
teams but without selecting any
of their own team members.
Another method which would
be fair and equitable would be
to allow each major leaguer to
pick an AH-Star team again
without being allowed to name
anyone from his own team.
At any rate, the Cincinnati
landslide proved that the cur
rent system is ludicrous. Dis
proportionate voting would have
placed Redlegs in seven of the
eight fielding positions.
There were 500,000 votes from
Cincinnati alone in the last
week. Of these, 481,882 were
for Don Hoak and you must
remember that last year's top
choice, Dale Long of the Pirates,
won with only 179,744 votes.
So Frick stepped in and knock
ed off three of the Redlegs,
putting Stan Musial, Willie Mays
and Hank Aaron in the lineup
You can't argue with the fact
fhat they belong in the lineup.
SERIES TO BE TELECAST
New York IB At least the
first two games of. the 1957
World Series will be telecast in
color. Commissioner Ford Frick
and the National Broadcasting
Co. announced today. The sixth
and seventh games will also be
colorcast, if they are played, and
there is a chance the third, fourth
and fifth games to be played in
the National League city may
be. --
But, if you were a Cincinnati
voter, you could argue over
whether Frick has a right to
do what he did. Ballots are
ballots and every other city had
the same privilege of unlimited
voting.
Points Up Fare
Yet it points up the farcial
nature of the fan balloting. Any
newspaper or radio station can
conduct balloting by applying
to the commissioner. Some count
the votes religiously. It's no
secret that others, buried under
an avalanche of ballots, take
a sample, weigh the rest and
multiply the sample by the
poundage involved.
Warren Giles, the National
League president, has suggested
that each city be given an equal
number of official ballots. This
would shut out some of the vot
ers and doesn't seem fair, either.
So the thought here is to put
it in the hands, of those who
really have the inside info on
who the real All-Stars are, any
how the managers or the
players.
Eisenhower Back
Al White House
Washington OP) President
Eisenhower returned here Mon
day night from a four-day week
end at his Gettysburg, Pa., farm
to celebrate his 41st wedding an
niversary.
The President plans to remain
at the White House throughout
the week despite the Fourth of
July holiday. He will return to
Gettysburg next week end.
Mrs. Eisenhower remained at
the farm when the Chief Execu
tive returned to the White House
Monday night.
Presidential Press Secretary
James C. Hagerty said Eisen
hower has a new experience
ahead of him testing out the
new White House helicopters.
Hagerty said sometime between
July 12 and 19 Eisenhower will
take off from the south lawn of
the White House and fly to a se
cret relocation center as part of
the civil defense exercise "Oper
ation Alert 1957."
By UNITED PRESS
It was Dominion Day Monday
in Canada and Vancouver's
Mounties planned to celebrate it
by winning a pair of Pacific
Coast league games from Port
land and thus sneak within a
game of the idle San Francisco
Seals, who lead the league.
But Portland spoiled the holi
day for the hosts and kept them
two full games out of first place
by splitting a pair with the Can
adians at Capilano Stadium.
The Beavers grabbed the op
ener, 7-6, then bowed to the
Mounties in the nightcap, 3-2.
Bad Day
It was a bad day all around
for the 7,404 fans who turned
out in a holiday mood and un
doubtedly went home a bit
gloomy.
The first game was delayed
for 90 minutes to allow the field
to dry from morning rains. Then
in an abbreviated seven innings,
the Beavers won the hitfest.
Portland moved to a com
manding 7-3 lead, sparked by a
two-run single by Ed Wincemak
in the third, but the lead almost
vanished in the seventh when
the Mounties scored three times
Bob Thorpe, third Beave-
pitcher, came on in the final
frame to save the win for Ray
Bauer, who now has a 3-2 rec
ord for the season. Don Ferrar
ese absorbed the loss, squaring
his record at 3-3.
In the seven-inning second
game, third baseman Cal Segrist
salvaged a split for Vancouver
with a pair of home runs. He
put the hosts ahead by 1-0 in the
first with a circuit clout, then
broke a 2-2 deadlock in the
sixth with another bases-empty
blast.
Erautt Wins
Eddie Eraut went the route
for third win against five losses.
The loser was Dick Marlowe,
1-3, who went the route and
gave up only four hits.
