The Dodgers', pitching is probably the best in the league. Alston thinks so and he gets few arguments on that score. For right-handed starters he has Don Drysdale (17-13), Roger Craig (11-5) and Stan Williams (5-5). On the south paw side, he has Johnny Podres (14-9), Sandy Koufax (8-6) and Danny McDevitt (10-8). And if . that's not enough, Larry Sherry, the Dodgers' re lief ace in the World Series against the White Sox, also would like to be a starting pitcher. Alston is giving him a shot at the assignment even though he prefers the 24-year-old right-hander in the bullpen. Veterans Clem Labine and Ed Roebuck, who is attempt ing a comeback following arm trouble, have shown well this spring and could end up with relief roles along with fast baller Johnny Klippstein and possibly Fred Kipp.' Little wonder Alston isn't quite so conservative any more. 8 MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Or.

Ariz. - (UPD - The San Francisco Giants, still suffering from shock as the result of a barrage of base hits by the Chicago Cubs, were scheduled to meet the friendlier Cleveland Indians today in exhibition baseball game. Manager Bill Rigney said he might let pitcher Jack San ford go all the way against the Tribe - but he won't make it if the Indians pick up where the Cubs left off. The Chicago team defeated the San Franciscans, 13-10, in- Mesa yesterday - and the Cubs out-hit, out-ran and out played the team that has been picked by many to win the National league pennant. Antoneili Battered The Cubs battered Johnny Antoneili for three runs on six hits in two innings, rapped Stu Miller for five hits and six runs in three and one third frames, and got five hits and four runs off Billy Loes in an inning and two-thirds. Bud Byerly hurled one inning and allowed one hit. Tony Taylor, Lou Johnson and Ernie Banks led Chicago's 17-hit attack with three each including homers by John son and Banks. Chicago also got help from four Giant errors. - The Giants got nine hits, including, a homer by Willie Mays - but it was nearly a costly one. The centerfielder wrenched his left ankle as he loped around third base and will ride the bench for a day or so. Ladies' Pin Tourney on 2 Sundays .

North Division Almost Revived In Basketball Eugene - (UPD - The popular old Northern division basket ball schedules of past years will return in many respects in the 1961 season, University of Oregon Athletic Director Leo Harris announced today. Harris, also speaking for athletic directors at Oregon State, Washington State and Idaho, said the four teams would play each other four times each season as in past years and most of the series would be two-night stand. Most of the schools will add a two-game series with Wash ington, the fifth member of the old Northern division of the Pacific Coast conference. Washington is now a member of the "Big Five" with Cali fornia, Stanford, UCLA and Southern California.' Harris said the schedule did not mean formation of a new league.
