Window breaking
Keds Bust Phils
By FRED DOWN
United Press International
The Cincinnati Reds are be
ginning to look like those
famous "window breakers" of
1957-except that they're also
getting the pitching.
A long-shot National league
pennant shot, the Reds have
won six of their last seven
games scoring a total of 35
runs compared to 10 for the
opposition. They've had four
different pitchers go nine in
nings and Tuesday saw three
of their "fringe" pitchers com
bine in a 5-0 shutout of the
Philadelphia Phillies.
In addition, Manager Mayo
Smith saw Gus Bell blast out
two homers and Ed Bailey hit
one-all off Robin Roberts who
staggered through his second
nine-inning job of the spring.
Jim O'Toole, the rookie
hope of the camp, Willard
Schmidt and Bob Mabe were
the pitchers who collaborated
in Tuesday's three-hit shutout
-second in four games for the
Reds. O'Toole, a 6-foot left
hander who won 20 games for
Nashville last season, held the
Phiilies hitless and walked
one in four innings. Schmidt
yielded a sixth-inning single
to Roberts and Mabe
double to Jim Hegan and a
single to Willie Jcnes in the
eighth.
Pierce, Friend Win
Billy Pierce of the Chicago
White Sox and Bob Friend of
the Pittsburgh Pirates indi
cated they are approaching
top form in other significant
performances.
Pierce, the White Sox' like
ly opening-day pitcher, yield
ed five hits in seven shutout
innings as the Sox topped the
St. Louis Cardinals, 5-1. The
Cardinals scored their only
run off Bob Shaw when Bill
White homered-his third in
as many games since traded
by San Francisco. General

Manage Bing Devine blasted
the Cardinals after the game
"fer carelessness and failure
to go all out."
Friend was banged around
for 15 hits but managed to
last the distance for the first
time this spring, as the Pi
rates downed the Detroit Ti
gers, 6-5. A ninth-inning run
produced by Dick Groat's

United Press International
The Toronto Maple Leafs
and Chicago Black Hawks, a
couple of teams that climbed
back from the brink of disas
ter to breathe new life into
the Stanley Cup semi-finals,
were brimming with confi
dence today that they could
keep their comebacks rolling.
The Leafs, on Frank Mahov
lich's clutch tally at 11:21 of
an overtime period, beat the
Boston Bruins, 3-2, in Toronto
Tuesday night to square their
series at two games each.
And the Hawks came
through with a 3-1 triumph
over the defending cup cham
pion Montreal Canadiens at
Chicago, to create another 2-2
deadlock.
That means that both best-of-seven
series now have been
cut down to best-of-three.
Both resume Thursday night
with the sites switchine to
Boston and Montreal. Then
it's back to Toronto and Chi

Fish Pond
Again at
Sportsfair
Talent trout farm will again
furnish a fishing pond for
youngsters at the Crater Lions
Sportsfair, according to Clif
ford McGinty, general chair
man for the event.
This year the pond will be
located outside the armory,
sponsored by Gilmans Dairy
under big plastic bubble.
. Harry Ringland and Homer
Morris, owners of the trout
farm, expect to keep between
300 and 350 hungry trout in
the pond at all times during
the fair. It is not feasible,
th'ey said, to keep more than
this number in the pond as
the fish need .plenty of fresh
water and oxygen.
More Eager
Trout to be planted in the
Sportsfair pond will not be
fed for two days prior to the
fair. Ringland and Morris ex
plained that the fish will
travel better from the farm
to the armory better on an
empty stomach and will also
be more eager to take the bait
offered by young anglers.
Salmon eggs and beef liver
are the preferred foods: the
fish prefer the liver, but the
salmon eggs are easier to
handle for feeding purposes.
The trout farm has been
situated four miles above Tal
ent on the Anderson Creek rd.
for two years, in what the
state game commission has
designated as one of the best
natural locations for a trout
hatchery in the state.
McGinty reports that big
crowds of eager youngsters
are expectee to "limit out"
during the fair April 10, 11
and 12, at the Medford arm
ory.

Sacramento, Calif. (CPU
Heavyweight Eddie Machen of
Redding, Calif., shuffling

round technical knockout
Tuesday night over Clarence
Williams of Hollywood.
The unranked Williams car
ried the battle to Machen
throughout the first eight
rounds and might have won

den awakening.
Machen, who barely used
his right hand, came to life
after Willams doused him
with a left-right combination
on the head in the last seconds
of the eighth.
The 200 pound northern

Augusta', Ga.-(UPD-Ken Ven

betting favorites and Sam
Snead, as usual, the gallery
favorite as the field of 76 pro
fessionals and 14 amateurs
took their final tuneups to
day for the 23rd Masters golf
tournament, starting Thurs
day. Venturi, because most of
the pros think he has the best
game "from the tee into the
cup" was the 3-1 betting
choice with Wall, the leading
money winner on the PGA
circuit this year, the second
choice at 4-1.
The 46-year-old Snead and
the 48-year-old Jimmy Dema
ret, only golfers to win the
Masters three times, were
quoted at 5-1 along with Cary
Middlecoff. Arnold Palmer,
last year's winner, was listed
at 6-1.
"This no longer is an old
man's game," explained 57-year-old
Gene Sarazen, who
won the Masters back in 1935
-the second year that it was
played. "We old timers can't

more. And putting is a good

SF Giants
Picked, by
Joe Gordon
Mesa, Ariz.-(UPD-Sam Jones,
newest addition to the San
Francisco pitching staff, went
against the Chicago Cubs to
day for his first start in a
Giant uniform.
The hot-shot hurler from
the St. Louis Cardinals is ex
pected to help San Francisco
into pennant contention, and
some experts have already
predicted the Giants are it
for the 1959 National league
crown.
One of those experts was
Cleveland Indian Manager
Manager Joe Gordon who
said in Tucson Tuesday that
Jones and hurler Jack San
fofd could make the differ
ence. "I like the Giants to
win the pennant," Gordon
said. "The club has always
had the potential in my
book."
Show Potential
San Francisco showed a bit
of that potential Tuesday
when it downed Gordons
club, 7 to 5, with the help of
homeruns by Orlando Cepeda
and Bob Schmidt.
The Giants trailed 4 to 3
going into the ninth, but bust
ed out with one of their spe
cialties -a last minute rally
that netted four runs and the
win.
Johnny Antonelli started
for San Francisco, but was
pulled out of the contest after
two innings because he could
not "get loose." He was re
placed on the mound by Stu
Miller, but Dominic Zanni,
who came on in the seventh,
collected the win.

Bra'denton, Fla. -(UPD-Man-ager
Fred Haney today named
Felix Mantilla to open the
season at second base for the
Milwaukee Braves and claim
ed the acquisition of Stan Lo
pata gives the National league
champions "catching second
to none in the league."
Haney's big decision on his
perplexing second-base prob
lems followed the announce
ment of a six-player deal in
which the Braves obtained
Lopata and infielders Johnny
O'Brien and Ted Kazanski
from the Philadelphia Phillies
for pitcher Gene Conley and
infielders Harry Hanebrink
and Joe Koppe.

President
Receives
Gold Pass
Washington- (UPD -President
Eisenhower today set himself
a task more difficult than
than balancing the budget.
He promised to root Washing
ton's baseball Senators into
the first division.
At an annual White House
ceremony, the President re
ceived his annual gold pass
to American league games.
But he told the baseball dele
gation it looked like he would
miss the opening game day
here April 9 between the Sen
ators and the Baltimore Ori
oles. American League President
Joe Cronin reported that Eis
enhower told him his appear
ance on opening day was
"rather indefinite" but if he
missed the opener he would
"try to get out as often as
possible during the season.
The President told the base
ball delegation that he ex
pected to go to Augusta, Ga.,
next Tuesday, and remain
there on his annual spring
golfing holiday until April
13. Official developments may
cause a shift in plans, he
said..

the season for us," said Haney.
"But look for Chuck Cottier
to take over later on. We're
playing the Pirates in our
opening series and i don't
want to expose Cottier to that
kind of pressure."
Asked how the acquisition
of O'Brien affected his second-base
plans, Haney re
plied: "We traded a bench
man for a bench man." Ka
zanski, who received a $100,--000
bonus from the Phillies
in 1951, is being sent to Louis
ville of the American associ
ation "on a temporary basis."
Mantilla is a 24-year-old na
tive of Isabela, P.R., whose
"lack of incentive" often has
been criticized. He hit .221 in
85 games last season. Cottier,
an unheralded rookie not yet
on the Milwaukee roster, has
been the surprise package of
the spring for the Braves.
"Conley is the big man in
the deal for us," said General
Manager John Quinn of th
Phillies. "He is a good gamble
because he's a lot better than
his 0-6 record last season and
he can be a good pitcher for
four or five years."
"I like Koppe very much,"
said Phillies' Manager Eddie
Sawyer. "This means Valmy
Thomas is our first-string
catcher and Jim Hegan will
do a lot of our secondary
catching."
