February 12, 1957 Dons Club St. Mary's In WC Play By UNITED PRESS The third - ranked Univer sity of San Francisco Dons are standing 10 feet tall In the West Coast Athletic con ference today and probably won't shrink an inch by the time the regional NCAA Bas ketball playoffs roll around.

It was their 13th straight victory, the 16th in 17 games, and virtually clinched their fourth straight crown. A victory for St. Mary's would have gained the Gaels a tie with USF for first but the loss dropped them into third place, as Santa Clara moved into second with a 60 48 win over College of Paci fic. Coach Phil Woolpert's Dons weren't taking any chances on bad luck. They grabbed a 15-4 lead on St. Mary's, were in front 31-12 at half time and coasted home. St. Mary's Dick Sigaty led the scoring with 18 points, while Gene Brown had 16 for the win ners. Weiss Blasts Yankee Stars St. Petersburg, Fla. (IP) Casey Stengel insisted today he "ain't mad at anybody, but . . . Then he went on to tell three of his Yankee stars Mickey Mantle, Whitey Ford and Bob Turley they were rather fool-hardy to risk in juries by playing in, a benefit baseball game this early in the spring. Stengel, supervising the Yankees' rookie school here, made his comments after Gen eral Manager George Weiss in New York had criticized Mantle, Ford and Turley for appearing in a charity game at Key West, Fla., last Sun day. I The game was staged by the Major League Baseball Players' association and all proceeds were earmarked for old-time ball players and their widows. No Cause Worth Risks "No doubt it was a worthy cause," Stengel saia, aui none of our players should have risked their arms and legs no matter how worthy the cause.
