Major league players, man
agers and coaches, picking the
eight starters on each All-Star
team for the first time, in
nearly every case honored
1958 performances over the
time-honored reputations of
some of baseball's greatest
stars.
In the American league,
they chose left fielder Bob
Cerv of the Athletics over
Williams, and catcher Gus Tri
andos of the Orioles over
Berra. In the National, they
favored converted third base
man Frank Thomas, outfield
er Bob Skinner and second
baseman Bill Mazeroski, the
members of the Pirates who
got off to excellent starts this
aeason.
So drastic was the shakeup
ol All-Star choices that five
of the 16 starters never have
been picked even as a reserve
before this. They are Cerv,
Triandos, Mazeroski, Skinner
and shortstop Luis Aparicio
of the White Sox.
Here are the players chosen
to start the 25th annual All
Star game at Baltimore's Me
morial Stadium, July 8 with
batting averages through
Wednesday in parentheses:

association will have no drag
races at the Camp White strip
this Sunday, June 29, Presi
dent Jerry Lausmann has stat
ed in a reminder to fans here
in response to numerous inquiries.
He repeated an announce
ment that the drags which
had been planned by SOTA
this week end had been called
off in order that members
might participate in the
Northern California cham
monshiDs near Redding this
Saturday and Sunday. Laus
mann said that SOTA officials
felt that both race programs
would suffer if held on the
same day.
This week end's drags at
Redding are sponsored by
Shasta Roadsters. In addition
to the racing, there will be
a championship dance on Sat
urday night at the Veterans
Memorial hall in the Cali
fornia city.
More than $1,000 in tro
phies, bonds and merchandise
awards will be given the win
ners Sunday afternoon. Any
one breaking any of the strip
records at the Redding drags
will get a dash plaque for his
car. There are many more
awards too numerous to
mention.
Time trials begin at 8 p.m.
Saturday and 7 a.m. on Sun
day. Eliminations begin at 11
a.m. Sunday for stock cars
and at 1 p.m. for all other
classes.
Any car that is brought
more than 150 miles to com
pete in the drags and regis
ters a time of better than 125
miles per hour will receive
$10 tow money, according to
officials of the Shasta Road
sters. A majority of SOTA mem
bers are planning to attend
the two-day affair and a num
ber will compete.
Noel Black, Medford drag
ster builder and driver, has
reportedly been engaged in
extensive remodeling to his
machine that recorded one of
thp best times at the last rac
ing slate held in Redding, on
May 18th.
Next drag races scheduled
by SOTA will be on July 13.
DRAGSTER DUEL rThis is glimpse of what competition
will be like at the Northern California championship drag
races being held this week end, June 28 and 29, at Redding
Municipal airport. This picture, taken last month at Red
ding, shows Bob Watts (left) Reno, Nev., and Noel Black,
Medford, Ore., engaged in the gas eliminator race. Watts
won by a slight margin and both will be back this week
end to resume their duel. Under the sponsorship of the
Shasta Roadsters, a record turnout is expected to provide
top-flight competition for all entries.

Anti-Smoking
Provision in Will -
Rutherfordton, N.C.
(UPI) The late Mrs. Effie
Lynch McCall had strong feel
ings about smoking. So
strong that she included a
no-smoking provision in her
will.
The will instructed Mrs.
McCall's executor to "Please
see that no one has the part
I've said if they smoke. I hate
it."
She left a corner cupboard
and all "its contents , to one
female relative, but with this
stipulation: "If she smokes
cigarettes I do not want her
to have anything. I abhor
women smoking and I do not
want them to have my things
when I am gone."
The estate included per
sonal and household effects,
real estate, more than $3,000
in U.S. government bonds
and 25 shares of stock in the
R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Co.,
manufacturer of cigarettes.
Cleveland, Ohio (UPI) A
"real excited" Joe Gordon re
turned to the city where he
hung up his spikes as an ac
tive player today and took
over as the new manager of
the Cleveland Indians.
Gordon, 43-year-old former
star second baseman who
broke into the major leagues
with the New York Yankees
in 1938 and sparked the In
dians to the American league
pennant and World Series
championship 10 years later,
was named manager of the
six-place Indians Tuesday
night,, succeeding Bobby Bra
gan, who was fired.
The balding, former Cleve
land slugger, was described
by Tribe General Manager
Frank Lane as "a mature
baseball man and sound tac
tician. He'll fight you all the
way."
Not Enough
Bragan, who was dismissed
by Lane "because he didn't
get enough out of the team,"
was with the Indians less
than half the season.
The 40-year-old deposed pi
lot is unique in that he has
been fired as a manager two
years in a row before the sea
son ended. Bragan was given
his walking papers by the
Pittsburgh Pirates last Au
gust. The personable Bragan took
his latest ouster in a calm
manner.
"I have no complaints to
make," he said. "I received
fine treatment and coopera
tion from Frank Lane and
the front office."
"My only regret is that the
ball club, being composed of
hard-driving players, . didn't
get better support from the
fans.
"It's possible that the team
might change under the direc
tion of a man like Joe Gor
don, who himself was a hard
driving ballplayer," Bragan
said.
West Entries
In Control in
NCAA Tourney
Williamstown, Mass.
(UPI) Eastern golfers won
a pre-tournament exniDiuon
match but Western entries
were in control of the NCAA
golf championships today.
Four members of the cham
pion Houston squad beaded a
list of nine survivors from
Texas, Oklahoma and Cali
fornia as the field was shaved
to 16 collegians.
The survivors after two
rounds of match play tackle
two 18-hole rounds today.
Four semj-f inalists will
emerge by nightfall.
One of the most promising
matches of the day paired Al
Geiberger of Southern Cali

of Stanford. '
Japanese Star
Big Challenge
For Australian
Los Angeles (UPI) Aus
tralia's Murray Rose faces a
new challenge, today from
Tsuyoshi Yamanaka, the new
"flying fish" of Japan, in the
1500-meter, free-style which
highlights the opening night
of the international swimming
meet here.
Manyi of the world's leading
swimmers and divers from the
U.S., Australia, Japan, and
Hungary, are entered in the
three-day competition at the
Los Angeles Swim Stadium in

Rose, who won three gold
medals, captured that event in
17:58.2.
Yamanaka's coach, Katsu
yoshi Murakami, predicts that
his swimmer will be well un
der 18 minutes in the event to
night the first of the eve
ning schedule.
George Breen of the . U. S.,
the holder of the world rec
ord, will not compete because
of sub-par performances in
trials.
