Plan Drawn Up
By Continental
Loop Officials
New York (UPD B ranch
Rickey hoped to present a pro
gram today that will justify
the Continental league's exist
ence as a third major league.
The majors have told the
Pnntin,nti1 lpo.if nnprn tors. !
in effect, to "get going on this
business of expansion or we
will."
And so the 78-year-old
Rickey met with representa
tives of the eight Continental
league clubs until the late
hours of Wednesday evening
in an effort to draw up a pro
gram for satisfying the major
leagues' "ten command
rncnts." The Continental leaguers
hope that when they meet
with representatives of the
National 1 and American
leagues within 'the next week
or so they can' present reason
able assurance of fulfilling
the 10-polnt "Columbus
agreement" of May, 1959.
That manifesto by the ma
jors outlined the standards
the CL would have to meet in
order to Join the family of
organized baseball. These re
quisites applied to financial
stability of each club, minor
league indemnities, minimum
standards for ballparks, etc.
Rickey talked before enter
ing the meeting room but
made no statements after
ward. .- ' '

Young Ken Venturl is ranked
at 8-1 while defending cham

The rest of the darkhorse

Club Offers
Stadium
For Price
Portland -(UPD- The Multno
mah Athletic Club board of
directors Wednesday night
proposed that the city of Port
land buy Multnomah Civic
Stadium from the club.
Harold M. Phillips, MAC
president, said the club and
stadium boards ask $3.5 mil
lion for the property.
The offer was made to May
or Terry Schrunk and city
commissioners at this time so
the city would have time to
put the purchase on the No
vember ballot.
If the city does not buy
the stadium, the club said, the
property will be sold or con
verted to other uses.
Plans for MAC call for
either rebuilding on part of
me acreage or acquiring a
new site, Phillips said.

OSCAR FRALEY
Sport Writer Unltad Prtss
Akron, Ohio IlIPO - Bowling
is the fastest growing partic
ipant sport in the nation and,
thanks to a black-haired man
named Eddie Ellas, It's also
the most rapidly .expanding
professional sport In the land
today.
Elias is a man who went
into New York City two years
ago with 51,750 in his pocket
and a dream in his head.
The upshot is a profession
al bowling treasury today
which runs into "six figures"
- and the lowest sum you can
make out of that is $100,000
- while the 475 professional
bowlers under his tent will
shoot at $600,000 in televi
sion prize money and an ad
ditional $300,000 in tourna
ment payoffs next year alone.
Where it goes from there
anybody's guess, but it
can't go anywhere but "up."
25 Million Bowlers
There are 25 million bowl
ers in the nation and, with
the cleanup of the sport as
is moved from a basement
pastime in a pool hall atmos
phere to a country club set
ing, with the advent of air
conditioning it became a
year - round sport. The one
knock against it tor years
was that it had no properly
organized "professional" op
eration. Elias took care of
that.
Here was a young man out
of Akron whose only claim
to athletic fame was in hav
ing been the golfing caddy
of bowler Buzz Fazio. But
black-haired Eddie, taking his
law degree from Western Re
serve, numbered among his
clients such as golfer Tommy
Bolt and then subsequently
came up with his bright bowl
ing idea.
Elias set out blithely for
New York's bowling center
and organized the pro bowl
ers. Now he has 475 of them
under contract with another
200 clamoring to be admit
ted. We had to set up stand
ards," he explains. "We de
cided on a basic 190 average
and we investigate thor
oughly to make certain that
the average Is above-board.
We also investigate our pro
fessionals through an execu
tive board screening as to
their character.
The old pool hall atmos
phere and "hustlers have
been eliminated.
Big Prise Monty
In the fledgling year of
1959, the Professional Bowl
era association put on three
tournaments with a total of
$51,000 in prize money. In
1980 they are running off sev.
en tournaments - including
the $40,000 first annual PBA
tournament at Memphis - for
a total of $160,000. Next year
will be a new high, for Ellas
currently Is weighing "some
60 tournament bids.
There will be at least 20
tournaments with a total min
imum of $200,000, Including
a $28,000 tournament at Las
Vegas.
But the big money opera
tion in the professional bowl'
ing world will be, naturally
on television.

Foreign Athletes Lead World
Track Performances in 10 of
19 Olympic Events This Year
New York - Will the best
United States track and field
team In history Justify the
bubbling optimism of Ameri
can officials who confidently
expect our spiked shoe forces
to make a typically strong
Olympic Games showing this
summer In Rome?
American performances in
the final Olympic track and
field trials, July 1-2 at Palo
Alto, Calif., were spectacu
lar indeed: winners broke 14
of 17 U.S. Trials records and
surpassed Olympic Games
marks in 10 events.
But. In light of the cold
facts. It would seem that Pln-
cus Sober, U.S. Olympic track
and field manager, threw cau
tion to the wind when he esti
mated that America's squad
will win 15 gold medals at
the XVIIth Olympiad, to be
covered exclusively on the
CBS television network Fri
day, Aug. 26 through Monday,
Sept. 12. Such a performance
would match the u.b. medal
collection four years ago in
Melbourne.
The facts are that foreign
athletes lead world perform
ances in 10 of 19 Olympic
events this year.
Thus. It appears that the
rest of the track and field
world is at long last catching
up with the perennially domi
nant United States, ana very
well could outstrip our ath
letes In events we normally
expect to win.
Therefore, American televi
sion audiences who sit in on
the 20 hours of Olympic
Games coverage can look for
ward to the most intensive
and stimulating track and
field competition in the mod
ern history of the colossal
sports conclave.
The alarming possibility ex
ists, of course, that the U.S.
team could fail to win a sin
gle running race at Rome, ex
cept perhaps tne nu-meier
high hurdles and 400-meter In
termediate hurdles. And, even
in the latter event, defending
U.S. Olympic champion Glenn
Davis (:49.5f) may be the un
derdog to South Africa's sen
sational Gert Potgieter, whose
49.0 performance leads the
world.
In the sprints, traditional
American property, the world
leaders are Germany's Armin
Hary with his world record
10.0 for 100 meters and Eng
land's Peter Radford with
:20.4 for 200 meters on a turn.
America's No. 1 hope, Ray
Norton of the Santa Clara
Youth Village, has clockings
of :10.2 and :20.5 to his credit
this season,
American 400-meter leaders
Otis Davis (45.8) and Jack
Yerman (;46.0) face blister
ing competition from a profi
cient South African pair, Mai
Spence (:45.6) and Gordon
Day (;45.8).
A tradition of United States
supremacy in the 800 meters,
extending through the last
four Olympic renewals back
to 1936, also stands on shaky
ground with the West Indies'
George Kerr boasting the
world's fastest time of the
year, 1:48.4. Then there are
Germany's Paul Schmidt,
on the NBC "Jackpot Bowl
ing" show starting Sept, 19.
This will be a one-half-hour
show every Monday night
which will run for six consec
utive months.

Fan Slugs
Ump at KC
Kansas City, Mo, lUPD-Boyd
Michael Owens, a muscular
27 - year - old construction
worker, was on parole today
because he dared to do what
most disgruntled baseball fans
lock nerve to try,
He slugged the umpire.
Owens, of nearbv IndcDen-
denco, became so Incensed at
a call by plate umpire Bob
Stewart In Hie 10th Inning of
Kansas City's game Tuesday
night with the Baltimore Or
ioles that he decided to talk
to him about the inaltcr per
sonally.
He walked onto the field
unnoticed and strode tin to
Stewart. Seconds later, as
Kansas City shortstop Ken
Hamlin stood gaping in the
batter's box, Owen delivered
a roundhouse right that
caught the 42-year-old man In
blue on the side of the mn.sk.
That set off a fight which
lasted eight minutes while
the four umpires, ballplayers,
on usher and three patrol
men struggled to subdue the
outraged fan.
The only participant who
was Injured was third base
umpire Ed Hurley, who suf
fered a spike wound In his
arm when he foil while try
ing to hold Owens. Seven
stitches were required to close
the wound.
Fish Facilities
Said Inadequate
Portland-IUPIl-Portland fish
ond wildlife official Dr. Ted
Perry agreed Wednesday that
fish facilities at Oxbow and
Brownlee dnms are inade
quate. The charge was made
earlier Wednesday In a report
from Washington State Fish
Director Milo Moore, who
called for a meeting with the
federal power commission to
find ways of protecting the
35,000 to 40,000 . spawning
fish and young fish that must
pass the two dnms.
Moore suggested the Idaho
Power company bo required
to transplant the fish Into tri
butaries of the Snake.
Dr. Perry said, however, he
was meeting with represen
tatives of Idaho Power to
search for a less drastic and
less expensive alternative.
Dr. Perry agreed the pres
ent facilities arc "not doing
the Job," and said the fish
"are not coming downstream
like they should," He Bald sev
eral meetings have been held
on the problem, Including a
meeting In Interior Secretary
Fred Scaton's office last
week.
