Newspaper Page TextTurley, Malzone Top Choices On American League All-Star New York-TCPD-Pitcher Bob Turley of the world champion New York Yankees and third baseman Frank Malzone of the Boston Red Sox top the United Press International's 1958 American league all-star team. Turley, a 21-game winner, was the only unanimous choice of the 24 baseball writ ers, three from each city in the league, while Malzone, who hit .295 and played his position brilliantly, received all but one vote. Elmer Valo Sent Down By Dodgers United Press International Elmer Valo, who broke into the majors under the late Connie Mack at Philadelphia 18 years ago, apparently has reached the end of the big league trail. The 37 - year - old, Czech- born outfielder was farmed out to Montreal of the Inter national league Tuesday by the Los Angeles Dodgers. He saw only limited service with the Dodgers during the past season, batting .248 in 65 games. Valo made his major league debut with the old Philadel phia Athletics near the tail end of the 1940 season, hitting .348 in six games. He re mained with the A's until 1956 when he was released but later hooked on with the Phillies. The Phillies traded Elmer to the Dodgers last year in a multi-player deal ' for short stop Chico Fernandes. Best Season 1955 Valo enjoyed his greatest season near the tail end of his career when he batted .364 in 112 games with the A's in 1956. The Dodgers also sent pitch er Babe Birrer to Montreal in exchange for first baseman Jim Koranda and outfielder Solly Drake. They shipped outfielder Bob Wilson back to St. Paul, brought up short stop Harry Wallace from the same , American association club, and purchased catcher Norm Sherry from- Spokane of the Pacific Coast league. Other major league roster changes: Detroit Tigers: Purchased i infield Maury Wills from Spo kane, promoted infielder Steve Demeter and pitcher Joe Grzenda - from Birming ham, purchased infielder Bob Johnson from Charleston. Chicago White Sox: Ac quired pitcher Rodolfo Arias and outfielder Joe Hicks from Indianapolis in exchange for outfielders Ted Beard and Dick Di Tusa. San Francisco Giants: Pro moted . first baseman Willie McCovey, catcher Albert Stieglitz and infielder Jose Pagan from Phoenix. The 10-man team, eight regulars and two pitchers, was comprised of two Yank ees, two Red Sox, four Chi cago White Sox and one player each from the Cleve land Indians and Kansas City Athletics. Four of the players are ex-Yankees or ex-Yankee farm-hands. Lollar Catcher The infield is composed of catcher Sherman Lollar of the White Sox, first-baseman Vic Power of the Indians, the White Sox double play com bination of s e c o n d-baseman Nelson Fox and Luis Apari cio, and Boston's Malzone. The outfield is made up of Kansas City's Bob Cerv, New York's Mickey Mantle and Boston's Jackie Jensen. Billy Pierce, the White Sox little but hard-throwing left hander, was picked as the Casey Signs New Pact New York uTPD Casey Stengel signed a new con tract today to manage the world champion New York Yankees for the next two seasons at a salary that could exceed $100,000 a year. Stengel was rehired today at his estimated $80,000 an nual salary plus a bonus ar rangement. For several sea sons he has been the highest paid manager in baseball history. This was the sixth two- year contract given Stengel by General Manager George Weiss since Stengel joined the Yankees in 1949. Weiss and co-owner Dan Topping, with whom Stengel was re ported to have had friction lately, both expressed them selves as "mighty happy" that Stengel had decided to re turn. Stengel will fly to his home at Glendale, Calif., Thursday, team's second pitcher in a close race with Cleveland's Cal McLish and Washington's Dick Hyde. The team's strength may be judged by the fact that nei ther American League batting champion Ted Williams nor earned-run-leader W h i t e y Ford made it. Giants Call Up Willie McCovey San Francisco (CPD Willie McCovey, star first baseman for the Phoenix Giants of the Pacific Coast League, has been called up by the San Francisco Giants. McCovey batted .319 with the PCL pennant-winners the past season.. - The Giants also brought up catcher Albert Stieglitz and infielder Jose Pagan. Stieglitz was voted the player most likely to crash the major leagues while with Corpus Christi of the Texas League this season. Pagan played with Spring field of the Eastern League in his fourth year of professional baseball. 4Stoc; .,ct O" CVVk both A ino- a"' rv30 5S ftOS- te stof Oct IS at utoo rf innesot este" Jw' nn . iJVtO i U- .

Georgia Russell Mrs. Jeff Shut i r MAIN at CENTRAL Chieftains Looking to Hoop Slate By DICK ANDERSON Seattle -UPD- Acting for all the world as if the NCAA and its "black list" never ex isted, Seattle university, last season s runner-up in the na tional basketball playoffs, is prepping for the 1958-59 sea son as if a return trip to Louisville, Ky., was inevit able. Elgin Baylor-less, banned from NCAA tournament ac tion for two years and with a new head coach, one might expect a so-so attitude around the Chieftain campus. Not so, There's "Sweet" Charlie Brown, who played brilliant ly in the shadow of the fab ulous Elgin last season and who may now cpme into his great, following Baylor and the O'Brien twins, all-Ameri- can Johnny and Eddie. Heavy Schedule The Chiefs have their toughest schedule in history, with more name schools than ever before, including San Francisco, Loyala of Chicago, Bradley, Miami of Ohio, Col lege of Pacific, Portland, Gon- zaga, Marshall College at Huntington, W. Va., and Xav- ier, last season's National In vitational tournament champ. Coach Vince Cazzetta, who took over the reins from John Castellani when he re signed after the NCAA charges that Castellani of fered excessive aid to two prospective athletes, will have virtually the same team intact, less Baylor," of course, and guard Jim Harney. Baylor had another year of eligibility left, but chose to join the professional ranks with the Minneapolis Lakers. Cazzetta has returning with Brown, veterans Jerry Friz zell, 6-4 forward; Francis Ogorek, 6-5 forward; and Don Piasecki, 6-2 guard. Or orek has been tabbed as a real "comer" by numerous pro scouts. Leading the sophomore con tingent is Johnny O'Brien (no relation) 6-3 Vz guard who led the tough Northwest AAU league in scoring during his first year of play.

Pel Fans Hope For Upset To Spark Up Grid Season Can the Klamath Union Pelicans pick themselves up off the gridiron, ruffle up their feathers and luster up a presently gloomy and de pressing season by pulling off a stunning upset? That's a question Whitebird followers are asking as the Klamath Falls club looks to its Southern Oregon confer ence football scramble ' with Medford on Friday night. The tussle is set for 8 p.m. at the Medford stadium. The host Black Tornado is heavy favorite to write up its second District 6 A-l victory. The reason Well, season records speak for themselves. There is one direct compari son between the two clubs. In its season opener Klamath Falls lost 47 to-0 to the Marsh field Pirates. Three weeks later Medford nipped the Buc caneers 3 to 0. Klamath shows only one win in five games this fall while the Tornado has been victor in all four it's played. Beat South Eugene The Pelicans downed South Eugene 12 to 7 and fell 33 to 6 to Shasta of Redding, Calif., 14 to 7 to Orland, Calif., and 12 to 0 to Springfield. Last week end the Tornado won 26 to 0 over Crater. The Com ets at the start of the season were winners, 19 to 0, over Cottage Grove which later tip ped the Eugene club 25 to 0. Other Medford verdicts have been 21 to 7 over North Salem and 19 to 0 over David Doug las. Klamath began this season with 16 lettermen but has lost two or three of those. It has a young squad with just 10 sen iors. Among the returnees, quarterback Blake Griggs, halfback Don Story, end Gary Kranenburg and guard Ron Weber saw quite a bit of duty. Among the mainstays this season have been ends Kra nenburg and Larry Bunyard, tackle Ron Ybarra, guard Gary Hancock, guard and full back John Hancock, Griggs, halfback Ron Olvera, fullback Ron House. Take Up Slack A couple of players, who had quite a bit of service in the line, were dismissed from the crew last week. If they are still missing, Bert Fre- wing and Ron Weber, both who have played a lot, may take up the slack. Story and Olvera are the break-away runners in the slot T offense of Coach Andy Knudsen's Pelicans. Story is a sprinter and is shifty. Ol vera is not so speedy but his quickness gives him the abil ity to get loose. House at 180 pounds and John Hancock at 200 are the plungers. Griggs is a good passer and a threat if he has protection and has running ability as well. At the center spot Charlton Curran is reported out for the season because of torn liga- NAMED HEAD COACH King's Point, N.
