Thundering Tribesmen Lash

Frank Lane does a lot of
shouting for the Cleveland In
dians but even he's drowned
out by the thunder of the
Tribe's offense.
And you'll have to excuse
Manager Joe Gordon, the ex
Yankee great, if he's confused
because nobody told him his
Indians would remind him of
the old "Murderer's Row"
teams for which he played.
For that's exactly what they
are doing with seven victor

Court Gives Dodger
Club Green Light
At Chavez Ravine
Los Angeles DPD Barring
the remote possibility that the
U.S- Supreme Court will en
ter into the case, the Los An
geles Dodgers today had the
green light to proceed with
construction of their Chavez
Ravine baseball stadium.
The California Supreme
Court, in a second ruling on
suits to block transfer of 300
acres of land "in Chavez Ra
vine to the Dodgers, held that
the city did not violate pub
lic . purpose restrictions in
deeds to the land it negotiated
to transfer to the baseball
club.
Dodger president Walter
T. O Malley immediately ex
pressed thf hoDe that with
"hustle" the club could get
started on the 55,000-seat sta
dium in time to have it ready
for opening day next year.

whopping average of 6.6 runs
scored per game.
The Indians piled up their
biggest score of the season on
Tuesday night when they
crushed the Detroit Tigers,
14-1, and retained a two-game
grip on first place in the Am
erican league. Minnie Minoso
paced the 16-hit assault by
driving in six runs with two
homers and three singles and
Cal McLish pitched a steady
six-hitter.
Mantle Hits 2S0th
Mickey Mantle hit the
250th homer of his career as
I say if he intended to start
work even while an appeal to
the U. S. Supreme Court is
pending, although City Attor
ney Roger Arnebergh com
mented that so far as the state
courts were concerned there
was no legal bar to going
ahead with the contract once
the judgment was entered.
Situation
Normal for
Ex-NY Clubs
Los Angeles -(UPD- The situ
ation is normal again in the
National league. Those Giants
and Dodgers are at each oth
er's throat just as if they nev
er left New York and Brook
lyn. West Coast fans got a
sample of what Giant-Dodger
games can be like Tuesday
night when the teams staged
a three-hour and 47-minute
struggle eventually won by
the Dodgers, 9-7, in 11 in
nings. It was a battle of hom
erswith Don Demeter ham
mering out three two - run
round-trippers including the
game-winning shot in the 11th
inning.
The traditional rivalry that
wrote some of the greatest
stories in the annals of major
league baseball moved from
New York to California last
year but turned out to be
pretty much of a bust as the
Giants piled up a 16-game
edge over the Dodgers.
Fourth In A Row
But the Dodgers have
bounced away from the start
ing gate this season with sev
en victories in 10 games and
Tuesday night's victory was
their fourth in a row. A year
ago they dropped six of their
first nine games and were
never in contention. They fin
ished a dismal seventh.
Demeter his his first homer
in the third inning when the
Dodgers took a 5-1 lead and
he connected again in the
fourth to lift the Los Angeles
bulge to 7-3. But the Giants
tied the score with four runs
in the fifth and that's the way
it stood' until Demeter con
nected again in the 11th.
The first of Demeter's hom
ers also marked the first in-side-the-park
round - tripper
ever hit in the Los Angeles
coliseum. It was a long drive
that skipped past center field
er Willie Mays and rolled to
the fence.
The three homers bloosted
lanky Don's total to six for
the season-and gave him the
early-season major league
leadership, one ahead of the
Giants' Orlando Cepeda and
Cleveland's Woody Held.
And his six RIBs gave him
a total of 14, a tie for the ma
jor's leadership with Cepeda
and Baltimore's Gus Triandos.
He's batting at a fine .412
clip.

and Saturday morning. The
Axemen are the only prep
club this season to beat Med

against high schools.
the Yankees whipped the
Washington Senators, 11-4,
the Kansas City Athletics
beat the Chicago White Sox,
8-3, and the Baltimore Orioles
defeated the Boston Red Sox
5-2, in other AL activity. The
Milwaukee Brave3 made it
five wins in six decisions with
a 7-4 victory over the Cincin
nati Reds, Glen Hobbie pitch
ed a one-hitter as the Chicago
Cubs topped the St. Louis
Cardinals, 1-0, and Don De
meter's three two-run homers
gave the Los Angeles Dodg
ers an 11-inning 9-7 win over
the San Francisco Giants in
National league games.
Mantle his a booming triple
in addition to his first homer
of the season, Hank Bauer
homered and Bill Skowron
walloped a two-run triple for
the big blows in the Yan
kee's 18-hit attack.
Bob Grim pitched a four
hitter for the Athletics who
dealt the White Sox! their
fourth loss in their last five
games.
Storm Spoils No-Hitter
Batterymates Hoyt Wilhelm
and Gus Triandos were the
whole show for the Orioles.
Wilhelm stopping the Red
Sox on eight hits with his
dazzling knucklers and Trian
dos driving in all five Balti
more runs with a grand slam
and a solo homer.
Warren Spahn chalked up
his 248th victory of his ca
reer and beat the Reds for the
51st time despite a brilliant
performance of Vada Pinson
whq drove in all Cincinnati's
runs with a homer, double and
single. Hank Aaron raised his
league-leading batting aver
age to .567 with a triple,
double and single. '
Hobbie, a 6-3, OO-pound
right-hander who'll celebrate
his 23rd birthday on Friday;
retired the first 20 Cardinals
before pinch-hitter Stan Mu
sial broke up the bid for a
perfect game with a two-out
single in the seventh.
Demeter hit two-run hom
ers in the third, fourth and
11th innings and Don Zim
mer walloped a three - run
homer to account for all the
Dodgers' runs in their three
hour and 47-minute marathon
with the Giants.

New Partridge
Will Be Tried
Portland-There mav not be
any bamboo cane breaks in
the state of Oregon, but up
land bird gunners might soon
be taking not shots at a feath
ered bombshell from this type
of country.
This elusive - target of the
orient is the bamboo Dart-
ridge, an upland game bird
about the size of the bobwhite
quail, found in abundance in
southern China and Japan.
A shipment of 20 of these
birds was received recently
from Hawaii and are now be
ing held at the game commis
sion s Corvallis game farm.
The 20 breeders will be held
at the farm in an attempt to
rear enough of them for later
distribution. During the period
the new import will be studied
closely to make sure the birds
are suitable for release.
Typical habitat in their na
tive homeland is the brushy
marginal frinees near cultiva
tion. One important character
istic makes it look like the
bird might be adaptable to
the rain soaked area west of
the Cascades, marginal coun
try as far as most upland birds
are concerned. According to
information which Dromrjted
the game commission to take
a closer look, the bamboo
partridge can tolerate up to
80 inches of rainfall per year.

As Solons Triumph
1-0 in 13 Innings
Uniled Press International
Joe Stanka, who never has
known a winning season at
Sacramento, rates as one of
the club's top performers any
way and his iron man stint
Tuesday night against Van
couver is a big reason why.
The husky right hander
from Oklahoma A&M pitched
the Solons to a 13-inning, 1-0
victory over the Mounties
which bounced the Sacs up
into first place in the early
stages of the Pacific Coast
league race.
Now embarked on his
fourth season with a club that
rarely is out of the second di
vision, Stanka notched his
second win of. the campaign
while outlasting three Moun
tie pitchers. The loss went to
Charlie Beamon in the 13th
when Mike Krsnich raced
home from third base as sec
ond baseman Marv Breeding
made a wild throw trying for
a double play. Krsnich had
gotten aboard on an error by
third baseman Jim Dyck.

The Mounties posted men
on third twice during the pa

got out of trouble on each
occasion.

twice in the ninth to down
Salt Lake, 6-5 and Phoenix

to sink Portland, 7-5.
Billy Hunter, whose .weak
stick resulted in Cleveland
farming him out to San Diego,
smacked the game winning
single in the Padres' home
half of the ninth. Mitch June
opened the frame with a dou
ble and scored the' tying run
on a one bagger by Al Jones.

of the year and came off Bob
Davis, who got the loss, in the
fourth inning. Davis had
started and three other Beaver
hurlers trudged to the mound
after he left in the sixth.
Eddie Fisher, with some
help from Julio Navarro in

Shaping Up
For Derby

dispatches on the leading
Kentucky Derby candidates.)
New York -(DPD With the
race now less than two weeks
away, On-and-On shapes up
more and more as a possible
eighth Kentucky Derby win

On-And-On always was con

long .while it looked as though
the son of Nasrullah never
would be ready for the Rose

to last summer at Chicago
when the colt injured himself.
"I guess I was a little too
cautious with him," reflected
Jones as he explained why
On-And-On wasn't ready for
a shot at the $297,725 Garden
State Stakes last October.
On-And-On started only
twice at two, finishing second
once and out of the money
on the other occasion.
Came lo Life
When the Calumet Farm
horses were shipped to Lex
ington from Florida for the
Keeneland meeting this spring
there wasn't enough time left
to baby On-And-On.
"We're gonna try to make
it but I doubt if we can," said
Ben Jones who faced the same
situation with Ponder in 1949
and sent the dark bay colt
out to win at 16 to 1.
Back in his native blue
grass country On-And-Onfin-ally
came to life.
He was entered in a six
furlong race even though the
track was muddy. He won in
1:11 2-5.
Then on a fast track and
wearing blinkers for the first
time On-And-On scorched
over six furlongs in 1:09 2-5.
"It's the best race the colt
ever has run in his life," said
a more hopeful Jones.
On-And-On will get one
more chance to prove worthy
of starting in the Kentucky
Derby, probably in the Derby
trial at Churchill Downs on
April 28. But he must satisfy
the Jonesses in that race for
they never start a horse in the
Kentucky Derby unless they
think he has a good chance.
Rivers Battles
Webb. Tonight
Chicago -(DPD- Neal Rivers,
an unranked middleweight,
will meet "the best fighter I
have ever faced" for a second
time on television tonight and
he was a 5 to 2 underdog
against Spider Webb.
Webb, the third-ranked 160
pounder, will be trying for
his 37th win in 41 starts.
"He never hurt me when
we fought before," Rivers said
"but he punches fast and he's
about the best I've ever
fought. Better than Gene Full
mer or anybody else."

Bench Duty
Los Angeles-flJPD-Outfielder
Carl Furillo, one of the play
ers most closely identified
with past Dodger glory, de
manded today he be allowed
to play more regularly or
be traded to another club.
"I'm no good to the team
on the bench or to myself,"
said Furillo, who has a .300
batting mark for 13 major
league seasons- He hit .290
last year and led the club in
runs batted In with 83, but
has appeared in only five
games this year.
Furillo, 37, aired his beef
with E. J. (Buzzie) Bavasi,
who told him to talk with
Walt Alston, the Dodger man
ager. Alston, according to
Carl, advised the veteran to
be in condition and ready to
play.
Have To Play
"Then I told him to make
a deal," said Furillo. "I don't
hit just looking at mediocre
batting practice."
He added: "I've only been

Trout Station
To Be Closed
Portland - The first trout
rearing station in the state of
Oregon will soon cease to
exist. All that will remain
will be its documented record
tucked away in the historical
files of the game commission
as a memento of its long serv
ice to Oregon anglers.
This patriarch of trout nur
series, is the McKenzie hatch
ery a short distance east of
Eugene.
Born in 1907 as a salmon
rearing station, the McKenzie
plant was changed over in
1921 to become Oregon s first
full time trout producing
nursery. Over the years the
plant was expanded several
times and has been instru
mental in testing many of the
techniques now used in mod
ern fish culture.
. According to Phil Schnei
der, state game director, the
station has outlived its use
fulness as a trout producer
and will be retired at the end
of this year's trout production.
Schneider mentioned that it
would cost more than $200,
000 to overhaul the station,
which at best would prolong
its life only a few more years.
The closing of the McKen
zie hatchery will in now way
affect or reduce the state's
trout production program,
Schneider said. All produc
tion will be transferred to
other stations which produce
trout more efficiently and at
much less cost.
