T7 Woodling Spurs Orioles; Crucial Series Scheduled By MILTON RICHMAN United Proas International Old pro Gene Woodling, an old hand at playing under pennant pressure, could be the map. to lead the young Baltimore Orioles over the top In their spectacular drive for a first Ami rican league title. At 38, Woodling's best years presumably would be behind him. Maybe he's lost some of his speed, but he hasn't lost any of his incentive nor any of his batting ability. Woodling, kiddingly called "the whale" around the AL because of his tremendous chest and bulging forearms, 7 r -i l MAN SIZE Madlion Square moccasin i)p-on with hand lewn toddle leather tele and genuine Goodyear welt.

By HOWARD APPLEGATE Corvallis, Ore. -IIIPll- Coach T o m"m y Prothro of Oregon State, possessor of the finest coaching record on the West Coast for the past five years, faces one of the toughest schedules in the country this fall. But he is undaunted. "We conceivably could have a good football team in 1960," he says. Prothro, starting his sixth year of single-wing football here, suffered his poorest mark last year when the Beavers won only three while losing seven. But his five-ynr mark is 30-18-1, including one Pacific Coast conference crown, and a 1957 Rose Bowl appearance. Oregon Stale is starting its second year as an indepen- Roger Craig Form Tops Los Angeles - lUPII - Roger Craig, who helped pilch the Los Angeles Dodgers to the National League pennant last year, today held a five-game winning streak to indicate he was back in top form. The lanky hurler lost six weeks of action after suffer ing a fractured collarbone May 2 in a game with Cincin nati. But he has not been de feated since returning to duty June 20 and is now 6-1 as a result of his 3-1 victory Wed nesday night over the Phila delphia Phillies. 'I thought Craig had better stuff in his win over the Phil lies than he did last week when he shut out Cincinnati," Manager Walt Alston com mented after the game. ne was mixing up his pitches well and had his fast ball in reserve when he need ed it." NATS BUY SADOWSKI Washington -IUPl)-The Wash ington Senators, bolstering their pitching staff in the hope of a possible fourth place finish, today purchased right hander Ted Sadowski from their Charleston, W.Va.. farm club of the American Associa tion. Sadowski, 24, compiled a 7-8 record with Charleston.

It also includes Indiana, Houston and all other members of the former PCC except UCLA. The Beavers have 15 return ing lettermcn from 1959, plus three who lettered in 1958. Gone are 13 lettermen, includ ing 10 regulars from last year. But Prothro expects to field a team which will include let termen at every position ex cept fullback. Lack of depth, will present a problem, how ever. Oregon State should be strong at tailback, or left half, and at the end positions. Aaron Thomas, a senior lelterman end from Weed, Calif., is Considered by the Oregon Slate staff as the best football player on the teairu Senior George Thompson, slated for the other end start ing position, announced Mon day thai he would be unable to continue his football career because of a bad knee. Top candidates for his spot are Leon Criner and Amos Marsh, a 200-pounder who twice in track this spring ran the 100 yard dash in 9:5 seconds. Fight for Tailback Don Kasso, the kid from Berkeley, is scheduled to be the starting tailback. Kasso is one of the coast's top ruhnars, but did not show good pass ing form last year. The boy who may take up the slack in the aerial game, which proth ro wants to strengthen, is Ter ry Baker, a sophomore from Portland, who was one of the top all-around high school ath letes in the state's history. Baker alternated with Kasso in spring practice and could beat him out. Hank Rivera, a junior trans fer from Los Angeles City col lege, may get the call at full back. He's the only non-letter-man listed on the probable starting eleven, but has shown plenty in practice. Chuck Mar shall, a senior lettcrman, also is back at this position, but probably will play mostly on defense. The rest of the probable starting lineup, subject to change as fall practice pro gresses, has junior letterman Mike Kline and Neil Plumley at tackles; Denny Pleters and John Cadwell, also junior let termen, guards; Doug Bashor, a senior, at center; Art Gil- more, senior, at wingback or right.half; and Marne Palma tecr, junior, at blocking back, or quarterback. Ross Cariaga, Fresno, Calif., sophomore, may press Pieters at left guard and Ron Miller, a speedboy, is returning to help Gilmore at the wingback spot.
