The champion Baltimore

at their training base in West

The Detroit Lions cut five
players from their roster, in

a year in the Army. The oth

halfback Carl Smith of Ten

Smith was the highest draft
choice to be dropped. He was
picked on the ninth round.
The Lions play the Giants
in Detroit Friday night.
Hall Leads
PCL Stats
Sari Francisco - (UPD - Dick
Hall, whose slow-ball pitching
has carried Salt Lake into
first place in the Pacific Coast
league, dominates nearly all
phases of pitching in official
statistics released today.
Hall's 16 wins are tops in
the league, and combined
with only four losses, give
him an .800 percentage, which
is also the league's best. His
e.r.a of 1.80 is low among
league regulars and his six
shutouts is also a league high.
Ken Johnson's 212 innings
pitched make his the league's
hardest working hurler, while
Dick Stigman of San Diego is
strikeout king with 152. Earl
Francis of Salt Lake has the
dubious distinction of issuing
the most walks, 93.
Leads Batters
Spokane outfielder Tom
Davis led PCL batsmen with
a .342 average.
Rotund Steve Bilko of Spo
kane moved into the home run
lead with 25 and his 87 runs-batted-in
led in that depart
ment. Bilko won both titles in
1956 and 1957. He played last
year in the major leagues.
Davis' 182 hits put him far
ahead in that department. Be
hind Davis in the batting av
erages came Seattle's Hal
Bevan and Salt Lake's Sam
Miley at .333.
Centennial Show

Portland-TOPD-Centennial of

Richmond
Takes Two
United Press International
The streaking Richmond
Virginians probably won't
have time to catch the front-
running Buffalo Bisons, but a
doubleheader sweep Monday
night just about insured them
of a playoff spot in the Inter
national league.
The Virginians defeated the
Columbus Jets twice, 3-2 and
9-7, to run their latest victory
streak to eight and cut Buf
falo's lead over them to 6V4
games. With 14 games left to
play, Richmond's chances of
catching the Bisons appear
remote. However, they now
lead third-place Havana by a
half -game and fourth -place
Columbus by Wz games.
Miami defeated Havana,
2-1, on Jimmy Archer's six
hitter, while Montreal defeat
ed Buffaol twice, 9-3 and 2-1,
and Rochester beat Toronto,
6-4.
Chances Alive
Montreal's double victory
kept alive the fifth-place
Royals' chances for a playoff
berth. They trail fourth-place
Columbus by 3V games. Tom
my LaSorda was the winner
for Montreal in the first game
and Babe Birrer won the
nightcap.
Glenn Cox was the winner
for Richmond in the first
game after taking over for
Bill Stafford in the third. He
helped settle the second game
when he belted a three-run
homer in a wild fifth inning
in which the Virginians scor
ed five times to tie the score
at 5-5.

The Salem Senators had to
do it the hard way but they
managed to keep on Wenat-

league play Monday night.
Salem got seven runs in a
big eighth inning and took
Eugene, 10-9, in a makeup

contest and managed to stay
a half-game ahead of Salem
in the second half race.
Hank Bivens, Don Gafney
and Joe Wilson each smacked
doubles in Salem's big inning.
Wilson's two-master drove in
two runs to tie the score and
he scored the eventual win
ning run on a single by Herb
Anderson.
Sid Harvey of the losers
had a two-run homer in the
sixth and in the eighth he
tripled in one run and scored
himself on a sacrifice fly.
Jerry Mason drove in four
runs on three extra-base hits
in the Wenatchee victory.
Dick Lapiner scattered seven
hits in registering his fourth

Wilson Predicts U.S.
Pan Am Game Win
By LEO H. PETERSON
UPI Sports Editor
Chicago (UPD The man
who will direct the destiny of
the United States in the 1960
summer Olympic games in
Rome predicted today the U.S.
will win a minimum of 11 of
the 27 team titles in the Pan
American games opening
Thursday.
"That should give us tre
mendous impetus toward the
games at Rome," said Kenneth
L. (Tug) Wilson, president of
the U. S. Olympic committee.
He added that he wasn't
counting the U. S. completely
out of the other 15 team titles
to be decided here.

ment, declined to confirm the
site or date. The old Manas
sa Mauler stated merely: "The
return match will be held
next year."
Neither the site nor date
would be mentioned in the
contracts, he said..
Confusion .
Dempsey, who stepped into
Rosensohn Enterprises, Inc.,
as promotion director last
week,' brought about the
agreement in only two days
of conferences here, and
thereby ended two months of
confusion.
The contracts would have
been signed Monday night;
but champion Ingemar had to
go to the textile town of Bo
raas, 40 miles east of Gote
borg, and appear as a model
for pajamas and shirts at a
fashion show. It was a com
mitment he couldn't break.
Attorney Ahlstedt said In
gemar didn't want to fight
again this year for tax rea

wait for March so he needn't
start heavy training until af

holidays with his family.
WASHINGTON GIRLS LEAD
Washington (UPD Two girls
from the state of Washington,

Ann Gunderson of Seattle, to

ors into the second round of
match play in the National
Women's Amateur golf cham
pionship. Finals are Saturday
tries figure their teams are
vastly improved over what
they had at Mexico City in the
last Pan American games,"
Wilson continued. "But from
talking to our coaches and
other officials I'm confident
that this is one of the strong
est squads we ever have put
together for international com
petition." Predictions
Wilson, basing his predic
tions from what U. S. coaches
have told him, figured the
U. S. would win both men's
and women's track and field,
both men's and women's bas
ketball, yachting, boxing,
baseball, men's and women's
tennis, and men's and women's
gymnastics.
Other nations are favored
or co-favored with the U. S.
in soccer, equestrian, both
men's and women's fencing,
water polo, yachting, rowing,
shooting modern pentathlon,
wrestling, women's volley
ball, cycling, men and wo
men's gymnastics and skeet.
However, Wilson believes
the U. S. could upset the dope
in rowing, yachting, and wres
tling among others.
Strongest Ever
"After watching them work
out and viewing their records,
this is the strongest men's
track team that's ever been
put together by anybody at
any place," Wilson declared.
"I'd have to say that a large
percentage of this team will
be on our 1960Olmpic squad."
He anticipated "perhaps a lit
tle trouble from Venezuela
and British West Indies in the
relay races, but that's all."
"Fred Schaus, our basket
ball coach, says this is the best
basketball team we've ever
fielded in international com
petition," Wilson went on. "It
has good team size."
