By JIM HEALY
Uniled Press Sporti Writer
The front-running San Fran
cisco Seals have apparently
shaken the slump that plagued
them most of last week. But
they'd better keep i an eye out
for San Diegctjvich eased Hol
lywood out of third place Tues
day night.
The Seals showed they are
still the team to contend with
in the Pacific Coast league by
taking a twin bill from the Los
Angeles Angels, 5-0 and 8-2,
while the Pads humiliated Port
land In the Beavers' park, 4-1
and 6-0.
San Francisco took the first
game without a struggle, collect
ing four runs in the second in
ning two of which came from a
wild homer by Marty Keough
with one on. Another run was
added in the third to give R. W.
Smith a win after losing four
straight.
Angels Showed Fight
The Angels showed more fight
in the second contest and start
ed off with a tally in the top of
the first. But it was no go as the
Seals came back with two in the

Best Fishing on Continent
Is in Alaskan Waters Now
By HAL WOOD
United Press Sports Writer
San Francisco (W The
best fishing on the North Am
erican continent right now is in
Alaskan waters.
And If it's Dolly Vardon trout
you might be a-wanting, the
place to go fishing is at Taku
Harbor, 20 milei south of Jun
eau and slightly less than 900
airline miles north of Seattle,
Wash.
Father Hubbard, the famed
"Glacier Priest," and" Henry
(Smitty) Schmidt, trainer for the
San Francisco Forty Niners pro
fessional football team, have
just returned from a fishing trip
there and, if you can believe
Smitty, the Dolly Vardons there
are so plentiful that after a
while hauling them in gets tir
ing. "We did our fishing at Lime
stone inlet on a creek only about
15 yards wide," says Smitty,
waving his arms in excitement,
"and atimes the Dolly Vardons
in that xreek were so thick you
could almost walk across on
them."
Plenty of Proof
Smitty may have been exag
gerating to some extent, but he
had plenty of pictorial proof of
his catches.
"You couldn't use a creel
where we went fishing," he went
on. "The average trout was 16
to 18 inches long, weighing from
three to six pounds. A creel
wouldn't be big enough, so we
used sacks."
Smitty was proud to be in
the company of the famed Fa
ther Hubbard, who is recover-
AH Stars Begin
Last Drill Day
Chicago (W The College
Ail Stars began their last full
day of drills today before Fri
day night's annual meeting with
the National Football League
champions, the New York Gi
ants. .
Coach burly Lambeau planned
to continue his secret workouts
for the collegians at the North
western training camp early to
day and then will send his squad
through a night drill in Soldier's
Field, site of the game.
Probably Thursday the col
legians will take only light
drills without pads.
Labbeau has stressed offensive
maneuvers for the past week
and was expected to continue
drills on this phase today. How
ever, his defensive platoon has
been working simultaneously
under assistant Coach Hunk An
derson. Lambeau bas given no indica
tion of the division of his 47
player squad into offensive and
defensive ynits and it was likely
that he would not make public
what assignments his individual
players will get until he takes
the club on the field Friday.
The only position at which
there seemed to be some cer
tainty was that either John Bro
die of Stanford or Paul Hornung
of Notre Dame would be the
starting quarterback on offense.

"Father Hubbard is the most
famous man in Alaska and is
the most beloved man I ever
knew," says the trainer. "He is
67 years old now and this was
his 30th tri to Alaska in 32
years.
"He did his share of the fish
ing, even with his physical dis
abilities and I'm sure he had a
wonderful time.
Glacier Revisited
"We went to visit a glacier
there that Father Hubbard first
had inspected 30 years ago. In
that time the glacier has moved
nearly a quarter of a mile, slid
ing towards a small body of wa
ter." Henry says the clams are
nearly as thick as the Dolly
Vardon trout at Taku Harbor.
"We caught clams and cook
ed and ate them as clamburg-
ers, just as back here in the
States we eat hamburgers," he
said. '
"What a country for a fisher
man," he exclaimed. "It stays
light until 11 o'clock at night
and starts to get light again at
3 a.m. You could fish 20 hours
a day if the fish weren't so
thick that you caught your lim
it before that time!"

Keep Hopes
Pittsburgh The British
Wightman Cup tennis team,
whose chances of winning the
coveted trophy for the first time
since 1930 are admittedly "only
reasonably good," may have an
ace in the hole because of the
playing surface of the Edgeworth
Club courts.
Play in the 29th renewal of
the matches begins Saturday at
nearby Edgeworth where the
courts have a teniko finish, a
hard surface- of pulverized slate
and clay with fast-drying qual
ities. It marks the first time in the
history of Wightman competi
tion that the matches will take
place on other than a grass tourt.
In the eyes of the British this
gives them only an outside
chance since they have had more
opportunity to play on compo
sition courts. .
Mrs. Mary Halford, non-playing
British team captain, con
ceded that inexperience will af
fect her team's chances. She put
it this way:
e'Our chances of winning are
only reasonably good."
On the other hand, American
team captain Mrs. Margaret Os
borne DuPont said the matches
will be much closer and more ex
citing" since the British girls
have more opportunity to play
on composition courts."

Red Sox Star
Still Pessimistic
Boston OPt Ted Williams
said he was sure of at least two
things today concerning his hitting:
"Up to now I'm sure that it
isn't my best year . . . and I'll
bet anything I have that I won't
win the American League triple
crown."
While the Red Sox star seem
ed so convincingly pessimistic
about winning all three batting
titles, he hedged a little on the
first point by saying "it's a lit
tle too early yet to definitely
say whether this is my best sea
son or not. ,
"If I see at the end of Sep
tember that I've got more total
bases than I ever had, then I'll
say this was my best season,"
Williams said in a taped radio
interview with Sportscaster Curt
Gowdy of station WHDH and
the Red Sox Tuesday night.
Williams had 241 total bases
after Tuesday night's game at
Baltimore with 50 more games
remaining this season. He ach
ieved his highest total, 368,
when he batted .343 in 1949. In
1941, when he enjoyed his top
batting year of .406, Williams
had 335 total bases.
With ' 30 to his credit now
Williams gave himself an "out
side chance" to win the home
run championship but it had to
be on the condition that "I feel
as good as I do now."

Webb declared. "I beat him and
all the newspapermen thought I
beat him. But you can't over
rule the judges. This time I've

Webb, with 22 wins and two

SF Offer
New York m The New
York ""Giants, with San Francis
co's formal offer in hand, will
present that offer to the club's
board of j directors next, week
and probably announce the fran
chise shift.
Brooklyn's announcement of
its franchise shift to Los An
geles was not expected to be
far behind, since Dodger hopes
of a new stadium in Brooklyn
just about disappeared Tuesday
witn publication of an engineer
report that it would take from
50 to 55 million dollars to build
a new stadium and improve its
downtown Brooklyn site.
In a meeting with Giant stock
holders Tuesday club president
Horace Stoneham told them it
would be in the best interests
of the team to move to San
Francisco.
In San Francisco, Mayor
George Christopher said he had
mailed the formal San Francisco
offer to Stoneham for presenta
tion to the team board of direc
tors. "I'm sure we'll have the whole
thing cleared up by the end of
the month," said Christopher.
No one would concede that
the moves were absolutely cer
tain. Christopher said that the
"Chances are about 90 per cent"
that San Francisco will have the
Giants in 1958.
The Dodgers' president, Walt
er O'Malley, has said .many
times he will take the team to
Los Angeles if the City of New
York, does not help him get the
stadium he wants at the loca
tion he wants. It was clear the
city would not spend 50 million
dollars for it.
