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.
Proving once again that 13
is just another number, the
Dons romped over St. Mary's,
69-49. 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.
