Braves Varsity B ack in Stride;
Pittsburgh Pirates Humbled 6-1
By FRED DOWN
United Press International
The junior varsity held the
fort for the Milwaukee Braves
the last month and now it
looks like the varsity is ready
to take 'em the rest of the
way.
Th Braves wouldn't be
where they are now except
for the kids like Joey Jay,
Carlton Willey, Juan Pizarro
and Felix Mantilla, who kept
the club right-side-up during
July. But it's the battle-tested
guys like Lew Burdette, Ed
Mathews, Del Crandall and
Red Schoendienst who can
lock up the race and they
all seem ready for the run to
the wire.
They made it look easy
Tuesday night when the
Braves restored their Nation
al league lead to five games
with a 6-1 triumph that ended
the Pittsburgh Pirates' four
'game winning streak. tThe
Prescott Drives In
6 Runs for Phoenix
By GENE BRYANT
United Press International
'Bobby Prescott drove in
six runs at Phoenix Tuesday
night to lead the Giants to a
9-6 win over Sacramento and
a one-game edge over second
place Vancouver in the Pacific
Coast league standings.
The utilityman from Pan
ama belted a homer, double
and single as the Giants came
from behind twice before the
issue was decided by a three
run burst in the eighth in
ning. Prescott led a two-run
rally in the seventh with a
aingle to tie the score at 6-6,
then knocked two more runs
home with a double in the
eighth.
Earlier he smashed a three
run homer to give the Giants
a temporary 4-3 lead.
Only four of the Giant runs
were earned, however, as the
Solons chipped in with five
errors. Carlos Paula kept the
Sacs in the game with four
runs-batted-in on a homer,
double and single.
Mounties Los Ground
Vancouver lost ground as
the Mounties suffered their
second one-run loss to Spo
kane, this time by a 6-5 score.
Both clubs put together five-
run innings, but the Indians
won it when Jim Gentile came
home on a single by Glen
Gorbous in the fifth.
Portland bounced San Diego
twice, 3-2 and 5-4, and Salt
Lake blanked Seattle, 3-0, in
other games.
Vancouver put the tieing
run on base in the bottom of
the ninth but relief pitcher
Dick Scott, who took over
for starter Larry Sherry in
the fifth, struck out pinch
hitter Joe Durham and got
Barry Shetrone on a ground
out to end the game.
The Indians, who collected
14 hits, scored five times in
the third, but the Canadians
made it close by collecting
four of their six safeties and
three walks in a five-run
burst of . their own in the
fifth. Scott slammed the door
from then on, however, allow
ing onlv two hits while coast
ing to his third win against
a single defeat. Thr loss went
to Art Ceccarelli, the first of
four Vancouver pitchers,
bringing his record to 9-5.

Brave made only five hits
but two of them were homers
that produced five runs and
Burdette pitched a steady 10
hitter to gain his 11th victory.
Burdette, criticized fre
quently this season, actually
is ahead of his 1957 pace. His
current 11-8 record tops his
9-7 mark of a year ago and
a fast 8-2 finish like he had
last season could be the
clincher.
In Clusters of Three
Schoendienst, only recently
back in action, knocked in the
Braves' first run Tuesday
night with a single in the
third inning and then Math
ews followed with his 22nd
homer for a 3-0 lead. The
Braves added the clinching
cluster of three in the sixth
when Johnny Logan and
Frank Torre singled and
Crandall crashed his 13th
homer.
The Chicago Cubs dealt the
hind Phoenix. George Freese
smashed his 23rd home, run
of the season to pace the Beav
ers in the seven-inning open
er. The Pads rallied in the
final frame, but Howie Jud
son stayed the distance to
record his sixth win against
four setbacks.
In the finale, the Beavers
scored the deciding run in the
bottom of the ninth on a
squeeze bunt by Bob DiPietro
which sent Bob Garber home
from third. The Pads had
knotted the score at 4-4 with
a single tally in the eighth.
Reliever Bob Lemon was
tagged with the loss, his
fourth against a lone victory,
while Garber got the win.
The double triumph gave
Portland a 3-0 series edge.
Eddie O'Brien stopped Se
attle on six safeties to give
Salt Lake its fourth straight.
Pete Naton and Carlos Bern
ier led the Bees with a hom
er apiece. Max Surkont was
charged with the loss.

For Air Scuffle
Phoenix, Ariz (UPD For
mer World Series hero Dusty
Rhodes and pitcher Joe
Margoneri of the Phoenix
Giants scoffed today at re
ports of their fight aboard an
airliner and said they're "still
good friends." ,
Rhodes and Margoneri
were booted from a Western
Airlines plane at San Fran
cisco Monday night.
"It was a scuffle, not a
fight," said Dusty, a New
York Giants hero of the 1954
World Series. "Joe and I are
still good friends."
William (Rosy) Ryan, gen
eral manager of the Pacific
Coast league farm team, said
both men had been fined. The
amount was not announced.
The report of the plane
fight by an airline steward
ess involved jousting along
a narrow aisle, with lounge
chairs broken and tables
smashed. The reason for the
fight was not established.
Margoneri, a pitcher, said
"Those reports of damage to
the plane are grossly exag
gerated. One of those little
plastic trays might have got
ten broken, but that was
about all."

Seattle, Wash. (DPD The
loudest voice in Detroit hydro

boats, Gale V and Gale VI,
would attempt to better the
Gold Cup record set Tuesday
by Maverick. ,
Lee Schoenith, whom with

said he in Gale VI and Wild
Bill Cantrell in Gale V would
"make a supreme effort" to
beat the qualifying speed of

Boats must run three laps

WHICH ADJOURNS FIRST
Washington (UPD It's a
toss-up who adjourns first
the lawmaking Senators or
the baseball Senators. Cur
rent estimates are that the
present session "of Congress
will end in two or three
weeks. But baseball's last
place Senators may not last
that long. Any combination
of 26 Senator losses and New

WSC Ducks
Dissolution
Proposition
BY RUSS NIELSEN
Pullman, Wash. (UPD
Washington State College will
support a proposal to dissolve
the Pacific Coast conference,
but Athletic Director Stan
Bates said today no move has
been made to organize another
league offering all sports com
petition for Cougar teams.
Bates said he has "no pro
posal or solution" to offer
about his school's athletic fu
ture, but that he hoped Wash
ington State would continue
scheduling teams of the Pa
cific Coast as in the past.
UCLA, Southern California,
California and Washington
have announced they will pull
out of the conference and WSC
said it would support Stan
ford's proposal to disband the
loop at a meeting in Portland,
Pre., this weekend.
Open Mind
"We will attend with an
open- mind," Bates said, "but
if the conference is disbanded
we will have to make some
kind of adjustment."
There has been unofficial
talk here about the possibility
of forming a new league but
Bates emphasized he "has
nothing in mind" concerning
a loop of other schools which
ave been mentioned as possi
ble members tif such a league.
Although Bates did not list
the "other schools," it's be
lieved they probably would
include Oregon, Oregon State,
Idaho, Utah, College of Pa
cific, San Jose State and Ari
zona State (Tempe). Utah is a
member of the Mountain
States Skyline conference,
COP and San Jose are inde
pendents, Arizona State plays
in the Border loop, and Ore
gon, OSC and Idaho are PCC
members.
Exhibition
Voted Down
Portland (UPD The pro

squad and the St. Louis Card
inals in Multnomah stadium
here was given a no-confidence
vote by members of th
board of directors of the Port
land Beavers baseball club
Monday.
The board said the biggest
problem for the Oct. 10 game
was the impossibility of get
ting the turf in Multnomah
stadium in shape for the Uni
versity of Oregon - Southern
California grid contest slated
for Oct. 11.

Casanova Pleads for Effort
To Save Paciff Be Coast Loop
By HAL WOOD
United Press International
Portland, Ore. (UPD Coach
Len Casanova of University
of Oregon pleaded with Pac
ific Coast conference offic
ials today to "forgive and for
get, try trl live under the same
tent," in an effort to save col
lege football on the West
Coast.
With all signs pointing to
a formal break-up of the
PCC at a meeting here this
week end, Casanova propos
ed that representatives of
the schools get together and
iron out their differences.
"Some of the schools, I un
derstand, plan to go it alone
as independents," said Casa
nova. "I coached at Pitts
burgh and Santa Clara, both
independent schools, and it's
no good. You need a confer
ence." Casanova 'pointed out that
the failure of the Pacific
Coast conference and the in
roads pro sports teams are
making in Los Angeles and
San Francisco could result in
the death of college football
in the West.
"If. you don't believe it,
look at what professional
sports have done to good col
lege sports around New
York. Remember the fine
football teams they used to
have at Fordham and New
York university?
Pros Stand First
"Recently I was in San
Francisco, where they have
both major league baseball
and football. While there, the
subject of football was
brought up, Stanford and Cal
ifornia were passed over. All
the interest was in the Forty
Niners.
"College football is too
fine a game to have that hap
pen to it. And the only salva
tion for the game is a confer-.

ence.
Casanova believes that the
Pacific Coast conference rules
of the past were too stringent.
It was because of these rules
that USC, UCLA, California
and Washington decided to
drop out.
"I think a conference that
follows the rules of the NCAA
could be worked out in the
west, with the approval of
most of the schools," said the
coach. "In the past, the PCC
had real tough rules. Some of
the schools didn't follow them
and therefore were fined.
"So both sides were in the
wrong. A little more give-and-take
by both' sides two
years ago would have saved
the situation. Maybe it's not
too late."
Faculty Slay Out

"They should be charged
only with handling the eligi
bility," said Casanova. "Aft
er all, what do they know
about athletics?
"I believe the athletic di
rectors and coaches should
run the conference. If they
can't do it the way they
should, then they should be
fired. But they start off
knowing what should be done
in sports."
It appears that Casanova's
plea may come late because
a majority of the schools al
ready have announced they
will vote for a dissolution of
the conference.
"If that comes about I fear
for the collegiate football
game in the West," said Casa
nova. "It could result in col
lege football out here attract
ing crowds like the college
baseball teams do."
