Washington State is at Mon
tana State, Fresno State at
Idaho State and Redlands at
San Jose State.
It was the Fresnans who
wrote the biggest headlines
last night while in other ac
tion, some Western schools
had varying luck in intersec-
tional tilts.
The Bulldogs dropped PCC
stalwart Idaho 55-52, and did
it in the Vandals' gym. The
Californians grabbed a 36-24
half-time lead and hung on.
Tom Gilcrest and 6-8 Gary
Alcorn scored 12 each for the
winners, with Alcorn domi
nating board play.
The powerful Fresnans
could conceivably sneak into
the NCAA tourney in an at
large post next March and
then go on from there to
break a few hearts.
Tigers Trampled
College of Pacific continued
to get its lumps on the road
as Marshall College drubbed

Reese Ends Career
As Baseball Player
By JOHN G. DIETRICH
Louisville, Ky. - (UPD -The
Little Colonel hung up his
glove the same way he played
it in the major leagues for 16
seasons - like a ballplayer and
a gentleman.
Retiring as a player and
signed as a coach by the Los
Angeles Dodgers Thursday,
Peewee Reese accepted the
end of his playing career
cheerfully but with a touch
of sadness too.
"When you've played so
long, you hate the thought of
not being in the thick of
things, any more," Reese said
at his home here, "but maybe
it's for the best. I've had a bad
back for a couple of years
. . . maybe it was time to
quit."
Peewee hinted his coaching
career might not last much
longer than his playing days.
"I don't expect to be in
baseball all my life," he said,
"or at least I hope not. I'll
try this coaching deal for a
year and see what works out.
Not that I'm complaining at
all, you understand, but
coaching isn't the best money
in the world, and besides it's
FOULED A somber Bobo Olson assists his opponent,
Tommy Villa of San Jose, to his corner after Villa went
down from a low blow in their middleweight bout at
Fresno, Calif. Despite a five-minute rest period ordered
by referee John Reno (left), Villa was unable to continue
the fight and Qlson was awarded the decision on a TKO.
Colavito Captures
AL Slugging Title
Chicago (UPD Rocky Cola
vito of the Cleveland Indians
was named tne American
league's slugging champion
for 1958 today, which means,
as the ball players say, he
gave the ball the longest ride
downtown.
Slugging averages are de
termined by the number of
total bases a player collects
compared with his official
times at bat. Colavita finished
with a slugging percentage of
.620 by rapping out 303 total
bases in 489 times up.
The Cleveland outfielder's
batting average was only .303,
but he hammered out 41 hom
ers, 26 doubles and three
triples. His 113 runs batted in
was exceeded only by Jackie
Jensen of the Red Sox, who
led the league with 122.
Mantle Ties For Second
Mickey Mantle of the Yan
kees and Bob Cerv of. the
Athletics finished in a second
place tie as far as slugging
laurels were concerned. Each
registered a mark of .592.
Ted Williams, the Boston
belter who won the 1957 slug
ging crown with a .731 figure,
wound up fourth this year
with .584. He was followed by
Roy Sievers of the Senators,
.544; Jensen, 535, and Bob
Nieman of the Orioles, .522.
Mantle drew the most bases
Singer Locked Out;
Receives Divorce
Los Angeles '-'.(UPD - Singer
Sharorl Curran, 31, who said
her husband locked her out of
the house she bought with her
own money, has been granted
a divorce by Superior Judge
Jerold E. Well.- '
Miss Curran, daughter of
the late financier Charles K.
Curran, and a niece of produ
cer Homer Curran, told Judge
Well Thursday that her hus
b a n d, photographer Nelson
Tyler, 25, also didn't want
children, stayed out late, and
didn't want the responsibility
of a home.
"He never shared his earn
ings with me," she said. "I
used by separate earnings to
buy the house and then he
changed the locks and
wouldn't let me in." . -
time for me to settle down
with my family."
No Manager Job
To a suggestion that man
agerial job might naturally
follow, Reese answered em
phatically, "No sir, I'm not in
terested," and he joked,
"gotta take care of the ulcers
I picked up in all those close
pennant races."
Looking back, the Dodger
captain mused, "the only
thing I feel disappointed
about is that I've never hit
.300 but once . . . I never
could figure out why I didn't
hit more." He had a lifetime
batting average of .269, 2,170
hits and 885 runs batted in
through 16 seasons, seven
World Series and eight All
Star games.
There "is no doubt about
the biggest satisfaction he got
from baseball.
"Beating those Yankees in
the 1955 World Series' boy, I
was afraid I never would see
that day, and you remember
they came back and tied it
up in the sixth game. I
thought 'well, here we go
again."
on balls, 129, but that total
was well under the 146 with
which he led the league in
1957. Of those 129 walks, 13
were intentional, and that
figure also was tops in the
eireuit.
Mantle and Jim Lemon of
Washington each struck out
120 times to wind up in a tie
for that "distinction," while
at the other extreme, Nellie
Fox of the White Sox fanned
only 11 times in 155 games.
Three Portland
Students Attacked
Portland - (UPD - Three stu
dents were attacked by, groups
of boys here Thursday, police
reported.
Ted Suttlemier, 17, a stu
dent at Washington high, was
struck on the jaw and knock
ed down by four boys who
fled when other students ap
peared. A student at Benson
suffered a twisted arm when
four boys of similar descrip
tion tried to force him to give
them money, police said.
Earlier, Daryl Jordan, 14,
also, a Benson student, said he
was assaulted by three youths
who wrestled him "most of
the way across the Burnside
bridge" and struck him in the
stomach.

TABLE ROCK
Christmas Program Set
By R. E. NEALON
Table Rock-Norman Mat
teson, newly-elected president
of the Table Rock Community
club, announces that the an.
nual community Christmas
tree and program will be held
Saturday evening, Dec. 20.
The decoration committee
is headed by Mrs. Ernest
Smith. In charge of the pro
gram is Dan Matteson, editor
of the Table Rock Telenews,
who promises a variety of en
tertainment, with some fea
tures new to this section, in
eluding Christmas music
piped in from radio station
K-GAL, the voice of Table
Rock. Santa Claus is expect
ed,' and of course the kids
will be expecting the usual
treats.
Sam Glass, the ex-marine
and part-time farmer, has
about decided that farming is
tougher than being in the ma
rines. In the marines you
know what you're going to
get, but with farming you
never know.
During Ed Robinson's elk
hunt, he let his beard and
mustache grow to some
length, but after arriving
home he shaved off his beard,
but thought the decoration on
his upper lip looked so im
pressive that he left it on. It
paid off, as some of the
neighbor ladies now think he
looks like Clark Gable.
According to a pamphlet
left in our mail box, rural de
livery patrons will be licking
their own stamps during the
month of December. Postal
regulations requiring that pa
trons stamp all greeting cards
and letters mailed during the
month, the stamps can be
purchased from the carrier.
We also read that if you ex
pect to receive large parcels,
let the carrier know if they
are to be left outside the box,
whether ' you will meet the
carrier or call for them at the
post office. Some may be ex
pecting a large package but
to make arrangements with
the carrier and have a pack
age of gum arrive, might be
rather embarrassing.

The Table Rock road

United Press International
Elgin Baylor's Christmas

Baylor, third highest scorer

in 20 points in the last half to
give the Lakers a 113-104 de

Thursday night and end Min

Streak.
With the lead seesawirie and
Detroit taking an 80-79 mar

perlative last half shooting to
give Minneapolis an edge it
never relinquished.
Baylor wound up with 26

Yardley's high-game total for
Detroit.

Blood Drawing
138 Pints Short
A total of 152 pints of blood
were drawn Wednesday in
Medford during the visit of
the Red Cross Bloodmobile,
according to Mrs. Anita
Burba, chairman of the Jack
son county blood program.
The drawing Wednesday
was 138 pints short of the
290-pint quota, Mrs. Burba
said. An estimated 178 people
volunteered for the drawing
and 26 of these were reject
ed, mainly because of colds,
Mrs. Burba explained.
"We think we fell below
our quota this time because
of the fog and the fact that
so many people had colds and
flu," the blood program chair
man said.
