Higgins, answering a "per sonal friendship" call from the Red Sox' millionaire own er Tom Yawkey, Sunday agreed to come back and man age the woebegone Boston team, presently 12 games out of first place. The Red Sox were in last place last July 3 when the 51-year-old Higgins was re placed as manager by Wash ington Senators coach Billy Jurges. Jurges, a onetime star short stop with the Chicago Cubs, managed the sagging Bosox into fifth place in 1959. But, by last week, the club's dismal play forced his physicians to order him relieved from duty for reasons of health. He was replaced as interim manager by veteran Boston coach Del Baker.

BARGAIN GRADE 2x4x8' J5 Per M' Chenev Stud Mill AT Central Point MEDFOHD MAIL TRIBUNE. proximate $3,500,000 - mak ing it the richest prize fight in history. Promoter Jack Fugazy said today the cash advance sale for tickets at the Polo Grounds had passed the $500, 000 mark and Indicated a live gate of at least $800,000. That would mean a crowd of about 30,000. Irving B. Kahn, president of Teleprompter Corp., said reports of sales for closed-cir cuit TV tickets at 230 loca tions in 125 cities in the Uni ted and Canada were "fabu lous." "T h e demand indicates," said Kahn, "that at least 600, 000 of the 700,000 seats in those locations - theaters, auditoriums, ball parks and arenas - will be sold." Closed circuit television of the Ingemar Johansson Floyd Patterson heavy weight title bout next Mon day will be presented at Medford's Craierian the ater. That would mean the total collected at theater-TV loca tions should approximate $2, 700,000 since ticket prices average about $4.50. The combined $3,500,000 from live gate and theater-TV would exceed the previous record paid for a fight, $2, 658,660 at the second Jack Dempsey-Gene Tunney title bout in Soldiers' Field, Chi cago, Sept. 22, 1927. That record was entirely for a live gate. But no combination of live gate and theater-TV has yet exceeded it. Although Johansson floored Patterson seve.i times in the third round for a technical knockout in winning the crown last June 26, the tight betting today indicates strong doubt that the dimpled Swede can repeat. Ingemar is favor ed at only 6-5. Last June Pat terson went into the ring favored at 5-1. .

KENTUCKY Scientist Says Keeping Air Clean is Washington - (UPD - The way the fastidious Dr. Lester Machta sees it, "we live jn the atmosphere, and it is impor tant that we keep it as clean as possible Obviously, not everybody thinks of air pollution in quite those terms. Who would delib erately befoul his own nest? Strike out "deliberately" and the answer is, almost all of us. The atmosphere is so big, so self-renewing that it looks like the perfect place to dump the gaseous and particulate wastes of industry, transpor tation, and backyard incinera tors. In the vast windy reach es of the great atmosphere, you might think, all man made poisons could be safely dispersed and diluted until the end of time. Is this so? According to Machta, research scientist of the U. S. weather bureau, the atmosphere has its limits. If industrial pollution continues at indicated rates, he says, "contiimination may become global, making further dilu tion impossible." Smog Victims Polluted air can kill and sicken. In the Industrial Meuse valley of Belgium 60 persons succumbed to smog in 1930. At Donora, Pa., in 1948, 20 died and some 6,000 fell ill. In December, 1952, a four-day smog blnckout carried off nearly 4,000 Londoners. In addition to killing, air pollution can destroy crops, put a blight on city buildings, and permanently damage health. It also may affect the weather. "There is strong evidence," Machta says, "(hat increased atmospheric contamination re duces visibility and modifies electrical conductivity, pre cipitation, and the radiation balance." Machta is a weather man. and what can the weather man do about pollution of the atmosphere i n which, as he says, we all live? Kinds of Weather For one thing he can Iden tify the kind of weuther which tends to concentrate pollution by preventing its dispersal. This has been done A stagnant weather condition known to meteorologists as "a warm hiah" prevailed during all of the smog disasters ot modern times. In this country these condi tions occur most frequently in the southern Appalachian mountains - and tn October. warm highs, even in winter, frequently , cover the south eastern United States. 'It seems probable that RVCC Players In State Junior Eight youths from Med ford's Rogue Valley Country club are among those qualify ing today in the Oregon Golf association junior tournament at Portland.

Man's skill takes from Nature's treasury the golden grain and crystal pure limestone water... gentle time fashions these into. ..Old Hermitage. Important with equal Industrialization," Machta says, "air pollution complaints would be more nu merous in the southeast than, say, in New England with its stormier weather." The best way to prevent smcg disasters, Maohta says, is to slop pouring wastes inu tile atmosphere. He duubts that will happen. So the next best thing, he suggests, might be to permit iidditinn to the atmosph'.-ie'E burden of filth and poison on ly when wnil'or condi.i.us are "conducive to dilution."
