lodgers Announce '58 Home;
Coliseum Hopes Still 'Held
Br HENRY RIEGER
Los Angeles HPi The Los
Angeles Dodgers finally have
decided where they will play
their 1958 home games
maybe.
Dodger President Walter C.
O'Malley called a hurried
preys conference Monday to
announce in a prepared state
ment: Negotiations to use Pasa
dena's famed Rose Bowl had
collapsed.
The Dodgers would use
bandbox sized Los Angeles
"VVrigely field for their 1958
home base.
But then he tempered the
latter statement by saying, in
answer to a question, he had
"not altogether ruled out the
possibility" of using the mas
sive Los Angeles Memorial
coliseum.
And then he quickly add
ed, "But at the moment, the
decision to play in Wrigley
field is final."
He did announce he would
meet with Los Angeles Mayor
Norris Poulson to "discuss"
the Coliseum and Wrigley

Fish Farm Will Reach
500,000 Per
1 nf ahont 500.000 fish
sold per year has been-set by
the Talent Trout Farms, ac
cording to Harry Ringland, co
partner of the farm.
Ringland and his partner,
Homer Harris, told the cham
ber of commerce's roundtable
meeting Monday noon they
have been in operation about
seven months and have about
300,000 fish in different stages
of growth. They recently re
ported the successful spawn
ing of 100,000 rainbow trout.
The fish, when first hatched,
will be kept in a trough for
about six to eight weeks be
fore being placed in the ponds.
Ringland said. The farm has
nine ponds at present, he add
ed. Ringland said all ponds in
use now are gravity feed
ponds and are supplied by two
creeks which meet on their
property.
He told the group the farm
does not hold the water but
runs it through the ponds and
then back into the streams.
Plans are now underway to
intall a pumping system which
would be required for a larg
er number of ponds.
Ringland said the men first
became interested in raising
trout in Southern Oregon
when Harris came to the Med
ford area for vacations and
bought 10 acres of land near
the farm, which at that time
was a small operation owned
by a local man. After finding
outlets for the trout in Los
Angeles, San Francisco and
Portland, the men moved to

field. Poulson, in a followup
statement to O'Malley's an
nouncement, said that Wrig
ley field was a "splendid
structure" but added that the
Coliseum "is the best place
available."
The Dodgers own Wrigley
field, securing it as part of
the deal which transferred
the now defunct Los Angeles
Angels from the Chicago
Cubs family to the Dodgers.
It is small in comparison to
most major league parks. It
also has such problems as
short foul lines, practically
no public parking facilities,
and a none-too-accessible lo
cation.
The stands are double
decked with a maximum ca
pacity of 22,000 fans. With a
minimum of alterations, they
can be expanded to handle
23,600. Some architectural
plans call for a maximum of
28,000.
O'Malley hopes to answer
the criticism of Baseball

that the low left field fence
makes for "cheap" home

the last to be held in San
Francisco, the new home . of
the Giants of the National
league. PCL President Leslie
O'Conner said the new league
headquarters would be moved
to either Phoenix, Ariz., or
San Diego.
The directors did not accept
the agreement with the Na
tional League on the terms
for permitting the Dodgers
and Giants to invade PCL ter
ritory, but O'Conner said only
a minor technicality in the
wording of the agreement had
to be ironed out.
Phoenix, Salt Lake City
and Spokane were officially
welcomed into the league, re
nlacinz San Francisco, Los
Angeles and Hollywood. The
Giants will control the Phoe

Dodgers will handle Spokane,
and Salt Lake took over tne

the trout business, Ringland
explained.
One Southern California
man buys about 10,000 trout
per week and picks them up
in his own truck, Ringland
said. He indicated the 500,000
Der year mark could be
reached soon.
Hcsaid because of the loca
tion it the farm, freight rates
are four cents per pound
cheaper than their nearest
competitor. He told the group
all shipping is by truck. Port
land and San Francisco re
quire "fresh", or ice packed
fish, while the Los Angeles
market wants the fish frozen,
he said.
Since first purchasing the
farm, the partners have in
vested about S45.000 which
has increased the capacity of
the farm from 70,000 to 300,
000 fish at one time. Fish are
raised from eggs which are
purchased in Washington,
Ringland added. .
Fish are of market size
when they are about eight
inches long or weigh about
one-fourth pound, he said.
Fish this size are more flavor
some and look better, he ex
plained to the group. Each
fish is placed in a plastic bag
before shipping, he added.
The farm limits sales to
wholesalers but maintains a
pond where fishermen can
drop in a line when they run
out of luck in streams, he said.
Some fish placed in the pond
are as big as 18 inches, he said,
but fish are sold by number
and not size.

in keeping the hefty National

Latest Roadblocks
O'Malley's revelation that
the Rose Bowl negotiations
had collapsed was the latest
in a series of troubles the

covered that the $750,000 it
would take to alter the sta

Striking Change
In Grid Sport
By FRED DOWN
United Press Sports Writer
The nation's top college
football coaches have agreed
that the extra point will be
killed by the NCAA's new
two-point conversion play but
differed sharply whether that
will help or hurt the game.
"There'll be less and less
kicking," was the virtually
unanimous comment and oth
ers included, "You've just
got to go for the two points
instead of the one . . . the
coach is sure to be second
guessed no matter what he
does . . . and . . . there'll be
fewer ties and more inter
est." NCAA rules committee
chairman Fritz Crisler, athle
tic director at Michigan and
author of the new rule, was
outspoken in favor of it.
Striking Change
"It is one of the most strik
ing changes in football his
tory," he said at Fort-Lauderdale,
Fla., where the commit
tee passed the rule. "It's a
progressive step and should
inject more drama into foot
ball's dullest, most stupid
play."
The new rule, which mark
ed the first change in football
scoring since the NCAA was
formed in 1906 was approved
unanimously Sunday by the
10-man committee. The com
mittee also voted to liberalize
the substitution rule, permit
ting all substitutes to reenter
each period once, and made
four other rule changes.
The conversion rule re
tained the old one-point for
placement or drop kick reg
ulation but added the option
that a team could try for two
points by running or passing
from the three-yard line.
Most high schools throughout
the country are expected to
conform to the regulation.

way of showing appreciation.
In the crowd watching the
game was Robert Hall, a 17-year-old
Detroit youth who
was so fascinated by the
Globetrotters that he vowed
then and there that he some
day would he one of them
and as slick as the rest in
comedy and ball handling.
Got Chance Later
It wasn't until four years
later that Hall got his chance,
made possible through a
friend of Hall's, Sammy Gee,
who had landed with the
Trotters the year before.
Hall, who hadn't played
high school basketball but
was a standout at the com
munity center, was tutored in
the Globetrotter farm system
and fast made the grade to
the main string.
And now Hall's ambition
has been realized. Not only is
he a stellar performer, but
"Showboat," as he has been
dubbed by his teammates, is
one of the finest comedians in
Globetrotter history.
In addition to the basket

country's leading night clubs
will be seen before the game

New York (IP) Adolph
Schayes of the Syracuse Na

firmed today as the all-time
professional basketball scor
ing champion, even as he
closed ground on Detroit's
George Yardley in this sea
son's scoring race.
Sunday night Schayes set a
new career record of 11,770
points, topping in 10 years the
career mark of 11,764 set by
former Minneapolis star
George Mikan. Both figures in
cluded play by each man in
the National Basketball
league, but not playoff games.
The league reported that
Schayes' new point record is
one of 18 individual and team
records broken during the
first hftf of the current season.
Schayes scored more points,
109, in four games last week
than Yardley did, 108, in five,
and so crept close to the pace
making Piston. Yardley con
tinued to lead the chase in the
regular weekly standings with
1,034 points, but Schayes was
a close second with 986.
