Voted Full
Brave Share
By FRED DOWN
New York HP Don McMa
hon had a full share of World
Series gold today to compensate
for the fact that he didn't get
half his share of praise in the
Milwaukee Braves' march to the
National league pennant.
The Brooklyn-born fireballer
iad only a 2-3 record after join
ing the Braves on June 28 but
was voted a full $3,924.36 share
compared to the 3,i share ($6.
693.27; awarded Bob (Hurri
cane)) Hazle. Milwaukee's late
season slugging sensation. Hazle
joined the club July 28, hit .526
for almost a month and finished
with a .403 mark for 41 games.
That was the only real sur
prise in the distribution of the
Series melon, revealed Tuesday
by Commissioner Ford Frick,
but even Hazle wasn't inclined
to make an issue of it.
McMahon'i Record Deceptive
"I would like to have gotten
a full share," said Hazle at his
Columbia, S.C., home. "But it
isn't for me to say what I should
have. What the players voted is
okay with me."
McMahon, a red-faced 215
pound righthander, had one of
the most deceptive records in
baseball this year. Braves' man
lier Fred Haney repeatedly
called him "my club reliever"
fgnd pointed to a 1.53 earned
cfun average as the true measure
0 his ability. McMahon pitched
,? innings of relief without once
$ftrving a home run ball an
gther indication of his ability.
The Braves voted 30 full
jhres, including one to regular
center fielder Bill Bruton, who
was on the disabled list after
July 11. They gave Nippy Jones,
purchased late in the season
from the PCL, a 3,i slice; award
ed 560,000-bonus boy John De
merit, who played in 33 games,
a 13 share of $2,974.78, and
handed 5118,000-bonus kid Bob
Taylor, who appeared in only 7
games, a flat S1.000.
The American league cham
pion New York Yankees exhibit
ed their traditional generosity
when they voted 33 full shares,
including one to coach Bill
Dickey, who was sick all year,
and another to Pete Sheehy,
who put in his 30th year as the
team's clubhouse boy. They also
poted a full share to Traveling
Secretary Bill McCorry.

Tom Wilson Top
Ground Gainer
In Pro Football
Philadelphia (IP! Tommy
Wilson of the Los Angeles Rams,
unfettered by a college diploma,
was a magna cum laude per
former among the university
alumni in the National Football
league today.
Wilson, who bypassed college
and won his football experience
during a service hitch, was the
leading ground gainer in the
league after three weeks of play
with a net of 350 yards in 53
carries for a 6.6 yard average.
Eddie Le Baron of Washing
ton, the wee one among the
NFL huskies, held the No. 1 spot
among the league passers.
Le Baron's top position with
the passers came from average
gain of 1 10.67 yards for every
pass thrown, the league's method
of determining the ratings. The
Redskins' mighty mite complet
ed 27 of 43 for a 62.8 percent
age. He threw four touchdowns
while gaining 459 yards and had
two interceptions.
Clyde Conner of the Forty
niners led in pass receptions
with 16 caught for 218 yards
and one touchdown.
Jim Mutscheller of Baltimore
leads the scorers with five touch
downs for 30 points, all on pass
receptions.
Chicago IW Quarterback
Ted Marchibroda; signed as a
free agent early last month, has
been put on the active player list
by the Chicago Cardinals. Mar
chibroda completed 12 TD pass
es last year while with the Pitts
burgh Steelers, who named him
their No. 1 draft choice in 1953.
When we wondered recently
why Jack Morris, ex-Medford
high gridiron great, was not
carrying the ball more for the
University of Oregon Webfoots,
we would have found the answer
had we read the Duck Dope
book more thoroughly. The
booklet mentions that Duck
Coach Len Casanova gives the
fleet fullback top-flight ranking
in the vital department of block
ing. The importance of Morris's
blocking in the Duck offense has
been pointed up in stories and
publications in the past couple
of days. A story in the Oregon
ian but originating from the
university tells that the unsung
Morris was described by Coach
Casanova to the squad as the
key to the Oregon offensive this
fall.
Said Cas: "Morris did the fin
est job of blocking against San
Jose State that I have ever seen.
There's no doubt about it, Mor
ris makes our offense go."
Jack, despite his major assign
ment as a blocker on the attack,
is second in scoring and third in
ground-gaining for the Ducks.
George Pasero, Oregon Jour
nal sports editor said in hit
column concerning Morris:
"Against San Jose he han
dled the ends as if he owned
them, making Oregon's wide
stuff go ... It was Jack'
block which sprung Jim Shan
ley loose on his fantastic 58
yard run . . . Jack also cleared
the way for three or four good
gains by Left Half Charlie
Tourville . . . Shanley and
Tourville are quick to give
Morris credit for their bril
liant running of past two
weeks. And when Jack does
carry the ball, his ' fellow
backs do their darndest to
give him same kind of good
blocking."

By UNITED PRESS
The Richard brothers, Maurice
and Henri, seem to be taking

Maurice raised his regular-season

Detroit Red Wings Sunday night
and then Henri came through
with two goals Tuesday night to
earn the Montreal Canadiens a
3-3 tie against the Chicago Black
Hawks.
