NWL Hitting
To Mcintosh
By United Press International
Bruce Mcintosh of Lewis
ton and his manager, Hillis
Layne, hold a good share of
the Northwest League hitting
honors according to latest
statistics.
Layne leads all hitters with
a .365 mark while Mcintosh
is top man in four divisions.
He leads in hits with 136, in
doubles with 26, runs with
90 and in total bases at 217.
Ted Tappe of Yakima and
Larry Helms of "Wenatchee
are tied in honors with 19
each. Helms leads in runs
driven in with 96 and team
mate Joe Wilson has the most
triples, 10.
Planners Consider
Subdivision Plat
Approval of the George Mc
Cormick subdivision on Mor
row rd., expected to set a pre
cedent for numerous others in
recently-annexed areas, was
referred for further study by
the city planning commission
last night.
The commission also asked
more time to study the La Mi
rada subdivision, off Murphy
rd., since a drainage canal re
portedly threatens certain
lots.
The McCormick tract is one
of a series of relatively nar
row, deep lots lending them
selves to small-scale subdi
viding. City Manager Robert
A. Duff told the commission.
"Your approval is going to
set a pattern for the rest of
that area's development," he
said. "There are 25 or more
similar two-acre tracts."
Commission's Approval
At stake in the commis
sion's approval is whether the
city should accept sub-stand-a
r d improvements. McCor
mick has reportedly proposed
to build a road along one
flank of his tract, with six
house-lots alongside it. He
would deed this road to the
city on its completion.
But he proposed a two-inch
water main, while six inches
is the city's standard. And he
would not include curbs or
gutters in constructing the
road. It was pointed out by
Duff that in such cases the
cost of standard improve
ments would probably exceed
the cost of the lots.
Chairman M. Thomas Wray
apopinted Earl Miller and
Jack A. Edson as a committee
to study the situation.
"She's pretty wild through
, there one or two times in the
winter," Claude E. Mclntyre
said of the drainage ditch
.along the La Miranda sub
division's north side. He said
the ditch carried water down
from the mountains.
City Manager Duff said the
PCC names the other team
from among its members.
2. One between the PCC
and the Tournament of Roses
for the PCC to produce and
manage the game.
3. One involving the Tour
nament of Roses, National
Broadcasting Company and
the PCC whereby NBC holds
exclusive television and radio
rights for the game.
Meanwhile, Harold B. Tu
key, Michigan state Univer
sity faculty representative, in
dicated that the Big Ten is
interested in continuing its
Rose Bowl pact with the
West Coast.
"My guess is that there
might be some folks out on
the West Coast who will come
up with some kind of work
ing agreement to take the
place of the Rose Bowl pact,"
Tukey said. "Some of the
minds out there are very in
terested in the Rose Bowl
and it certainly won't die
out."
started in LaGrande at East
ern Oregon College Monday.
The 24 players were wel
corned with a banquet at the
college Sunday night by
Shrine officials, who present
ed them with jackets.
The game chairman an
nounced that Jim Puckett,
Cove sprinting ace, has three
comers so far for an exhibi
tion 100-yard dash between
halves at the game. They are
Warren Sherlock of Wa-Hi,
Walla Walla, Wash.; Spike
Young of Helix high, and Tom
Valet of Amity.
Puckett challenged track
men, college or prep, to the
dash as a halftime feature
which might help the take at
the gate.
Honors Go
and Layne
Reggie Hamilton of Tri
City is top man in the stolen
base department with 39

Thornton Kipper continues
as the league's winningest
hurler with 17 victories. He
leads in strikeouts, 145, in
complete games with 24, and
in innings pitched at 216.
Bailey Brem of Eugene

mark at 2.75.
Lewiston leads in team

Wenatchee is the top fielding

commission had previously re
fused to approve a subdivision
because of a similar erosion
problem. He said expensive
prevention - work was re
quired to properly contain the
canal, and that such correc
tive action should be a condi
tion for approving - the sub
division. It was generally agreed
that cost of this should be dis
tributed throughout the sub
division, not applied only to
the lots abutting the canal.
Wray appointed Allan F.
Perry and Paul Selby as a
committee to study the prob
lem and to contact the Med
ford Irrigation district in re
gard to the canal's control.
Less than one-third of all

(Giants ftlew Home
To Have
Be Ready
By DICK DEW
United Press International
Hardwich, Mass. (UPD The
San Francisco Giants will
boast the world's only heated
open-air stadium when they
get into their new home next
July.
The architect who is design
ing, planning and building
stadium, John S. Bolles, made
that announcement from his
Cape Cod vacation home to
day. "We'll have the only stadi
um in the world with radiant
heating. We'll heat our con
crete slab during the cool of
early summer evenings. That
way we can raise the tempera
ture 20 degrees under 20,000
reserved seats," said Bolles.
The San Francisco archi
tect, who studied stadiums in
all parts of the world while
planning the Giant' home,
said he doesn't expect the
high-pressure hot-water heat
ing system will even be
turned on during the fall foot
ball season.
Ready By Fourth
"We have cool evenings in
the early summer. But late
summer and fall, the weather
is fine. We don't have to
worry then."
The stadium, originally
scheduled for completion at
the start of the 1959 season,
won't be ready before the
First or Fourth of July ac
cording to Bolles.
"We went ahead with our
working plans and the final
papers were just signed 10
days ago. We've already
moved three million yards of
earth and rock."
"We're not building a steel
stadium. Instead, we're bury
ing a reinforced concrete sta
dium in a hill. The fill from
the hill will go into the bay
where the hill will shape the
bowl on three sides and the
fourth will look directly on
the bay. We believe it will be
the most beautiful stadium in
the country," Bolles contends.
Nearly 55,000 Edsek now on the road!
EDSEL'S DRIVING FOR A FIRST-YEAR SALES RECORD

EDSEL DIVISION
LESS THAN $50 DIFFERENCE BETWEEN EDSEL AND V-8's OF THE
eat; To
The stadium itself will seat
40,000 when finished, most of
them on the U-shaped lower
deck. The upper deck will
take only 9,000 plus a "sub
stantial" press box.
The stadium can be expand
ed to 80,000 by closing in the
open end and running the
double deck all the way
around.
That second deck, by the
way, is so designed as to vir
tually eliminate the neck
wrenching columns. There'll
be just 26 supports, each 10
inches square. Besides that,
they'll be located in the
"wider" aisles so there should
not be much if any ducking
around corners to see the
field.
This will be an "old man's
stadium" according to Bolles.
"We're making the seats and
aisles much wider and trying
to make it more comfortable.
"We've taken the bugs out
of baseball stadiums insofar
as we can. We have a bigger
circle back of home plate.
People seated around third
base will be looking toward
the pitcher.
"We think it will be much
better than any other stadium
anywhere. And just to make
it better, the city and state
are putting in a freeway and
streets so the fans can get to
the park from downtown in
10 minutes. What more could
you ask?"

By JOE AMANT
United Press International
Redlands, Calif. (UPD Hey
there, young fella, you with
that glint in your eye for a
pro football career ... It ain't
easy.
Take a look at the Los An
geles Rams at their Univer
sity of Redlands training
camp. You'll begin to think
that Ram officials instead of
the armed services invented
the word "regimentation."
Those boys trying out for
bread and butter jobs with
the Rams are kept busy from
morn 'til night, seven times
a week and twice a day,
wrestling around the grid
iron. Actual practice is only a
small part of the day ap
proximately four hours.
There are "skull sessions,"
my lad, and they're as tough
as any course you took in
epistemology or higher cal
culus at college.
Every hours, awake or
asleep, the player is supposed
to be at a certain place at
a certain time.
Early to Bed
Girls are out. Card-playing,
even penny ante, is taboo. No
beer nor more exhilirating
liquors. Get in bed by the
10:30 p.m. curfew or you're
liable to find yourself look
ing for another job.
What's more you better zip
your lip and keep it zipped,
spies from other National
Football League teams may
be lurking in the rhododen
dron beds, alert for a way
ward word that may give
them a clue to the physical
condition of your team or the
latest wrinkle Coach Sid Gill
man has installed in his T
offense.
You've heard about base
ball players reporting to
spring training camp fat and
out of condition. Don't try
that with the Rams. You
probably won't be able to
stand the gaff.

TVTHEN HUMORIST JAMES THURBER was in Bermuda, the
W doings in the magistrate's court fas inated him. One de
fendant had been jailed by .the complaint of a girl friend. She
charged he had beaten her.
He said it was just a Plat
onic argument." "How
come," demanded the magi
strate, "that if it was only a
platonic argument, the girl
was naked as a jay bird
when the police arrived?"
The defendant looked the
magistrate straight in the
eye and explained, "I guess
I must have knocked her
naked during the argu
ment." Another highlight in the
Bermuda court came when
a woman demanded a divorce. Her grounds? "Judge," she
said, "I have reason to believe my husband is not the father of
my last child."

lady he sees in a chemise dress. It goes, "Hello, hello, wherever
