Casey Stengel's Wink and
gfeturn as
Oriole Offense
By MILTON RICHMAN
United Press Sports Writer
Casey Stengel's two famous
trademarks the wink and the
impish grin finally were back
in place today as befits a chipper
skipper who knows he has just
about wrapped up his eighth
pennant in nine tries.
The Yankees restored that long
absent Stengel grin Wednesday
night when they widened their
American league lead to a full
blown 5'2 games by knocking
over the 'ambitious Chicago
White Sox for the second straight
night, 5-4.
Don Larsen was the winner,
but the hero was reliever Bob
Turley, who was summoned from
the bullpen for the second suc
cessive night and' nailed down
the Yankee triumph. Turley first
got Larsen out of a jam in the
sixth inning, then worked him
self out of a bases-loaded situa
tion in the seventh after yielding
a two-run homer to Earl Torge
son. Hank Bauer hammered his
15th homer of the year in the
seventh off loser Billy Pierce.
Orioles On Rampage
The Baltimore Orioles staged
the biggest offensive in their his
tory to maul the Cleveland In
dians, 19-6, while Washington de
feated Kansas City, 3-2, and Bos
ton beat Detroit, 1-0, on Ted Wil
liams' 33rd homer of the season.
In the National league the
Dodgers took 'over second place
with a 14-inning, 4-3 triumph
over the Cubs; the Giants

Bidding for
Pitching Aid
By GENE BLUDEAU
Chicago HP) The league
leading New York Yankees and
the frantic Chicago White Sox
started a bidding contest today
for aging pitchers Sal Maglie of
Brooklyn and Virgil Trucks of
Kansas City as both clubs head
ed into the pennant stretch
i drive.
The Yankees, recovering from
recent jitters after a late season
slump, and the White Sox, with
in reaching distance of the flag,
are both in need of mound help.
Maglie is a 6-6 and Trucks 8-5
thus far.
Charles Comisky, youthful
vice president of the Chicago
club, brought the bargaining
contest out of the realm of ru
mor when he said he was "in
terested" in obtaining the 40-year-old
Maglie.
Comiskey said he talked to
Buzzy Bavasi, Brooklyn vice
president, about Maglie and that
the Dodger executive promised
a reply by today or Friday.
Comiskey didn't say how much
he was prepared to pay, but it
was learned authoritatively that
Bavasi, after obtaining waivers
on Maglie, was asking $75,000.
Comiskey, in a now-or-never
mood to overtake the perennial
American League champions,
said that he was' aware the
Yanks are also after Maglie
and perhaps Trucks.
"I'm prepared to go as high or
higher than they will," he said.

Dove Season
Will Begin
September 1
Portland Hunters have you
oiled that shotgun? If you have
not you'd better get the job done
quick because the first gunning
season for 1957 gets under way
the end of this month.
September 1 marks the open
ing of the season for band-tailed
pigeons and mourning doves
throughout the state. The season
on bandtails will extend through
September 30 and for mdurning
doves through September 22.
Bag limit is 6 pigeons per day
or in possession, 30 for the sea
son, and 10 mourning doves per
day cr in possession.
Hunters who prefer the whir
ring wings of the ruffed or blue
groase may take these birds east
of the Cascade mountains be
ginning August 31 through Sep
tember 8. The blueand ruffed
grouse season in western Ore
gon will open on September 14
and run through September 22.
Bag limit is three per day in
the aggregate, not more than
six in possession.
Pigeon Hot Spots
Probable hot spots for pigeon
shooting in the northwest in
clude Pigeon butte in Benton
county, Cheshire and the Cush
man tide flats in Lincoln county,
Crawfordsville mineral springs
in Linn county, and the Nehalem
and Nestucca tide flats in Tilla
mook county.
In southwest Oregon, tidal
flast near Prosper, Isthmus
slough and Shinglehouse slough
in C;jos county are all good bets.
The Smith river tidal watering
area is also a good choice, as
is the Winchuck river in Curry
county and the migration route
near Azalea in Douglas county.
Hunters in search of mourn
ing doves will find the greatest
concentrations in the grain
country of central Oregon tir
the high desert water holes in
eastern and southeastern Oregon.
The weekly report on hunting con
ditions prepared by the state game
commission:
Central: Columbia district The
White river archery area is extreme
ly dry and hunting will be difficult
unless considerable moisture falls;
largest concentrations of deer are
found at the highest elevations; deer
not moving much during davs: dove
hunting should be good in Jefferson
county; dove hunting in Wasco county
will be fair; grouse hunting in Mt.
Hood national forest will be poor.
Northeast: Blue grouse may be
found on Dooley mountain and high
ridges of Eagle creek drainage and
Mt. Emily: best ruffed grouse shoot
ing will be along brushy streams in
north half of Union county; mourning
doves plentiful along Snake river,
lower Powder river and Burnt river,
less plentiful in Baker and Grande
Ronde valleys; hunting mav be fair
on Kuhn-Day ritigfr areas and Smith
mountain-Grossman areas.
Blue grouse will be found scattered
throush most of the Blue mountains
and foothills areas in the Umatilla
district; best areas should be the
rocky ridge area on East Birth, the
benches along north fork of the John
Day river and along the Kamela
Tollgate road.
Ruffed grouse are scattered along
most water courses and canyon areas
of the major streams such as Walla
Walla, Umatilla, Meacham -valley; a
few grouse will be found along the
breaks of the John Dav river in
vicinity of Wickiup springs, Potamus
and Ant hill.

Sarasota, Fla. (IP) Baseball

enter a sanitarium soon for
treatment of tuberculosis.
Waner, a member of the Base
ball Hall of Fame and now a

Braves, said he was relieved at
the diagnosis of tuberculosis
made by a Milwaukee physician
last Thursday. He said he feared

Britishers
Favored in
Walker Golf
Mineapolis, Minn. HPI
Every omen, , experience, the
records and even the weather,
pointed today toward Great
Britain's second victory in 15
Walker Cup golf matches. v
Four of the 10 invading play
ers have held the British Ama
teur title in the last five years,
and four of them have had prev
iou Walker Cup experience.
Against this lineup, the Amer
icans have only one former ama
teur champion, the non-playing
captain. Charile Coe, and only
three players with Walker Cup
experience. One of these three,
Charlie Kocsis, played in the
only match which the Ameri
cans lost.
Gerald H. Micklem, a Walk
er Cup player four times and
non-playing captain of the Brit
ish team, rated his team "the
best prepared in history" for the
tournament, and cited the wea
ther as favoring his team.
For recently practice rounds,
it has been chilly, wet and
windy, and forcasters expected
this same condition Friday,
when there will be four 36-hole
two-ball matches. Pairings for
the foursomes will be an
nounced by Micklem and Coe
late today.
Saturday, the struggle will
finish with eight 36-hole singles
matches, with the parings to be
determined after Friday's play
ends.

through with the fight.
The IBC threat was made be
cause of a new demand for S300,-
000 for theater-television by a
Robinson representative, who dis
rupted the nine-day settlement
negotiations.
Attorney Sidney O. Friedman
for the IBC said he would appear
at today's meeting of the N. Y.
state athletic commission and ask
for "proper action." He said, "If
Robinson confirms the $300,000
demand, there may be no fight."
Last Monday, the commission
ordered Sugar Ray to go through
with his scheduled title defense
against Basilio at Yankee Stadi
um, Sept. 23, or risk losing his
middleweight crown by forfeit.
At that time Robinson said he
would fight if there was no tele
vision, but "I'll walk out of the
ring if I see a theater-TV cam
era." However, the commission
said his contracts called for a
closed-circuit presentation by
Theater Network Television, Inc.
The champion objected "to TNT
televising the fight because it
offered no cash guarantee just
a guarantee that 400,000 seats
would be available: whereas an
other organization, the Tele
prompter Corp. had offered him
a $250,000 guarantee.
Wednesday night. TNT finally
offered a 8250,000 guarantee.
Then came the blow-up when a
Robinsrn advisor, George Gain
ford, Uld the negotiators, '"If
you raised that offer to S300.000,
Robinson probably would go
for it." ,
Robinson said today, "I never
made the $300,000 request, but
1 haven't accepted the TNT offer
of S250.000 because it only
matches the original offer I got
from Teleprompter."
