LA Sending
John Podres
To Mound-
Philadelphia -TCPD- The Los
Angeles Dodgers attempt to
hold onto their full-game lead
in the National league tonight
by sending Johnny Podres
(2-1) to the mound against the
second-division Philadelphia
Phillies.
The Dodgers, whose 9-3 vic
tory over Pittsburgh Monday
tonnected with idleness on
the part of the Braves and
Giants to keep them at the top
of the pile, took Tuesday off.
Podres, who will be facing
righthander Robin Roberts,
(1-1), will seek his third
straight win. The southpaw
hurler only won one fcut of
three against the Phils last
year, but then too, he only
managed to win two road
games that season.
Manager Walt Alston came
up with his own explanation
of why the Dodgers have
scrambled to the top of the
league after finishing in seventh-place
last year.
Shamed Into It
"The boys were shamed
into playing good ball," he
said without the shadow of
a smile. "No one likes to fin
ish seventh. It just hurt the
boys' pride.
"But," he said, "basically
this team is better than the
one I had last year. It has
Better balance and the spirit
is wonderful. The boys work-
d like hell to get in shape
his spring and I'd like to
tBink that's the real reason
$or our fine performance."
The Dodgers as a team are
ofaatting .288 and in their past
erix games collected 46 runs
en 75 hits.
Credit for their spectacular
voring spree must go in a
ferge part to the unexpected,
jeower hitting of Don Deme
ter who leads both leagues
Vith 20 runs-batted-in and
elso clobbered six homers to
Jkoost him to a .352 average.
Charlie Neal, .345, and Wal
Sey Moon, .340, John- Rose
oro, .333 and Carl Furillo
16 also added their share.
Chisox Hit
By Fiu Bug
Chicago - (LTD The Chicago
White Sox faced the dreaded
New York Yankees with add
ed woes today. Ten players
were weakened or absent fol
lowing a siege of flu. '
White Sox Manager Al
Lopez, himself suffering from
the bug, hoped most of his
regulars could hobble onto the
field for the series opener
against the Yankees.
About the only break the
Chicago club got was the post
ponement of Tuesday night's
scheduled game due to wet
grounds, giving the ailing
players an extra day of rest.
The suffering Sox were
rookie outfielder John Calli
son, pitchers Dick Donovan
and Gerry Staley, third base
man Billy Goodman and
Bubba Phillips, first basemen
Earl Torgeson and Ron Jack
son, catchers John Romano
Earl Battey and pinchhitter
Don Mueller.
Also down with the flu
were Trainer Ed Froelich and
Coach Don Gutteridge
Callison was hospitalized
and may be out for several
days. The others were bedded
down in their hotel rooms and
homes.
Linfield Trims
Portland State
Portland -EPD- Linfield de
feated Portland State 6-2 in a
non-conference baseball game
Tuesday. Gene Manley hit a
jtwo-run homer for Linfield in
the sixth. .
RESCHEDULE GAME

York Yankees announce that
the postponed game of April
11 with the Boston Red Sox
has been rescheduled for Yan
kee Stadium Wednesday
night, July 8, provided the

Win Over Phoenix;
Solons Top Beavers
By DON BECKER
United Press International
The Phoenix Giants, who
last year lived by the home
run ball in their tight little
home orchard, are dying by
it this year.
Beset by an accommodating
hurling staff, last year's Pa
cific Coast league pennant
winners have taken some sol-
Antonelli
Will Hurl
For Giants
Pittsburgh -4DPD - With two
days f inactivity and the
gray . rainy cold of Philadel
phia behind them, the San
Francisco Giants will send un
beaten Johnny Antonelli
against the slow starting Pitts
burgh Pirates tonight.
Coldness was responsible
for the cancellation of Mon
day night's contest between
the Phillies and Giants. Rain
cancelled Sunday's game.
Giant Manager Bill Rigney
has announced" that Southpaw
Mike McCormick will go
against the Buccos Tuesday,
thus leaving the big three,
Jack Sanford, Sam Jones and
Antonelli, ready for duty
against Milwaukee over the
week end.
Rigney also said Andre
Rodgers, who has an injured
thigh muscle, will not see ac
tion till the weather warms.
Eddie Bressoud will continue
as his replacement.
Antonelli, unbeaten in
three starts will probably be
faced by Pirate Ronnie Kline,
who has an 0-1 mark.
Dusty May See
Big Time Again
San Francisco -(DPD- Dusty
Rhodes, hero of the World
Series for the, Giants in 1954
when they operated out of
New York village, may make
the big time again.
Manager Bill Rigney of the
San Francisco Giants says
that Rhodes, who is murder
ing the ball for Phoenix of the
Pacific Coast league, may be
called up for pinch-hitting
duties in the National league
race.
"Our pinch hitters have
been so weak that we could
use a man like Dusty." says
Rigney. 'He's really clouting
the ball at Phoenix."
Statistics for the first two
weeks show that ol' Dusty is
rapping the apple at a .320
clip,, including four doubles,
four homers and nine runs
batted in.
Giant Bench Folds
Meanwhile, the San Fran
cisco club has come up with
a total of one (1) single in 17
pinch-hitting attempts.

uncovered a new star in 27-year-old
Russ Kemmerer.
Kemmerer, who had a 6-15
record last season, won his
third game of the current cam
paign when the Senators beat
the Kansas City Athletics, 8-3
Tuesday night In the only
major league game played.
Rain and cold weather caused
the postponement of six oth
er scheduled games.
Kemmerer, a 6-foot, 3-inch,
200-pound right-hander ob
tained from the Boston Red
Sox in 1957, allowed eight
hits, struck out three batters
and walked none. He previ-
id shellackings in the early
going of this season's race.
And it's mainly because the
opposition is ripping the ball
out of the park.
Tuesday night, the lowly
Vancouver Mounties bashed
three productive roundtrip
pers as they buried the Giants
16-6.
Mountie Ray Barker hit a
three-run shot in the first in
ning to get things started and
Joe Taylor socked a similar
three-run clout in the fourth.
Marv Breeding got into the
act with a two-run homer, also
in the fourth.
Pads, Solons Both Win
Elsewhere, San Diego stay
ed within a game of league
leading Sacramento as it nip
ped Seattle, 4-1. Spokane
crushed Salt Lake 13-5, and
the Solons won over Portland,
9-5.
Lefty Joe Hatten had an
easy time of it on the mound
for the Mounties as he coasted
to his second win of the year.
His teammates scored three
in the first, seven in the
fourth and six in the ninth.
Phoenix shortstop Jose Pa
gan ran his hitting streak to
14 straight games with a pair
of singles. Dusty Rhodes,
who may be ticketed for some
pinch-hitting work with the
San Francisco Giants, had his
11 game streak snapped as 'he
caught the collar in five trips.
The Sacramento nine, in
first place on the strength of
superb pitching, got some sol
id hitting Tuesday night.
Noel Mickelson got the win
for the Solons, his second,
while Bob Perry was the big
man at' the plate with a hom
er and a double. The capital
city crew lashed out 14 hits
in scoring its nine runs.
Portland's George Freese
hit his sixth homer of the
campaign while Jack Littrell
hit his first of the season for
the losers.
Williams Hit Grand Slammer
Charley Williams' grand
slam home run was the big
hit as Spokane rolled to its
13-5 win over Salt Lake. Pat
Patrick picked up the pitch
ing victory for the Indians m
relief as he took over for
starter Ralph Mauriello in
the fifth inning.
Veteran Bud Podbielan
hurler six-hit ball to gain the
win for. San Diego over Seat

ond against no losses. He has

Turnout Keeps

Attendance at Medford Ri-1
fie and Pistol club pistol prac
tices is keeping up very well
despite the opening of fishing
season and the scores of the
shooters are improving as the
season moves on.
The high five at last night's
shoot were Roy Hewitt, 276,
Paul Rutter, 273, Rafe And

and Tom Staley, 249.
The new shooters were Bar

Officers of the club have
reminded the public that the
range is open to anyone who
wishes to shoot pistol. Next
practice will be on Friday
night starting probably a little
late because of the world's
heavyweight title fight on TV.

games by the Washington
staff match the Cleveland In

Look Big League
Kemmerer, a native of
Pittsburgh, Pa., is only one of
the players picked up by
Griffith who has been instru
mental in helping the Sena
tors "look big league" so far.
Bill Fischer, right-handed
pitcher obtained from Detroit
has yielded only one run in
his last 19 innings. And Reno
Bertio and Ron Stamford, ac
quired in Griffith's controver
sial deal with the Tigers last
winter, struck key blows in
Tuesday night's triumph
which ended Kansas City's
three-game winning streak.
Griffith announced at the
end of last season that he
would trade any member of
his team including star
pitcher Pedro Ramos and
slugger Roy Sievers - and
promised that the Senators
would be a stronger team this
year.
He didn't make all the
trades he plalined but those
he's made over the last few
years are paying off hand
somely so far.

New York-flJPD-At least 98
per cent of those who play golf
are cheats-knowingly or un
knowingly. It would be impossible to
fix the percentage in each of
those two categories. But,
whether deliberately "or due
to ignorance, the rules of the
fairway take the worst smash
ing in sports.
"No more than two per cent
of the players know and abide
by the rules," flatly ssys Joe
Dey, executive secretary of
the U.S. Golf association.
And, while 2 per cent may
be high, lef s be generous."
Ignoring the deliberate
cheat, Dey contends that most
people simply don't know the
rules at golf-ven the basic
ones. Much of this is because
of the broad scope necessary
to govern an international
sport in which no two courses
are exactly alike.
"If you watch 98 out of
100 players," he contends,
you can catch them in a
penalty before they reach the
sixth tee."
Should Obey Rules
And, all quibbling aside,
they'll fracture basic rules
which everyone should obey
both in fairness to themselves
as well as those with whom
they are playing.
How many people do you
know who break the most
fundamental rule of golf, sim
ply that the ball shall not
be touched from tee to cup
and throughout should be
played as it lies?
And you, sir, are a golfing
cheat if you:
1. Play an old ball across
a water hazard and substitute
a new one then or when you
get on the green.
2. Use winter rules.
3. Remove growing obstruc
tions. 4. Ground your club in a
sand trap.
5. Play a new ball even
with the point where you went
into a water hazard.
Can't Change Ball
"One of the most fractured
rules," says Dey, "is cleaning
the ball or substituting a new
one. Look at the duffers who
refuse to risk a new ball on
a water hole but, replace the
ball after clearing the hazard.
The rule says you must hole
out the ball you have driven
unless it is lost, out of bounds
or so cut as to be unfit for
play."

"Winter rules do not mean
preferred lies," says Dey.
"There are times when some
section of a course is damaged'
and you can get a free drop.
But in considering 'winter
rules' then, there's the ques
tion of whether the ball is to
be teed 'up by hand or with
the clubhead. The answer is,
neither way."
As for "obstructions," arti
ficial things may be cleared
from the area of the ball and,
in the case of a soft drink
stand, you may move two club
lengths in any direction. But
not to improve your line.
Only to get a whack at the
ball. You cannot move, bend
or break anything growing.
In clear loose impediments
you are penalized a shotif
the ball moves. In clearing
unnatural debris there is no
penalty if the ball moves.
It's More Fun
"On taking your stance, you
can only ground the clubhead
lightly," Dey explains. "The
club must not be pressed
down. You'd be surprised
how, by pressing down with
a club, some golfers make
brassie shots out of niblick
shots."
In sand traps, the clubhead
must not contact the sand un
til the ball is struck. If it does
-and how many use the wedge
