MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, ORE.
But here's the way it stacks
up from here:
National League 1. San
Francisco Giants, 2. Milwau
kee Braves, 3. Los Angeles
Dodgers, 4. Pittsburgh Pirates,
5. St. Louis Cardinals, 6. Cin
cinnati Reds, 7. Chicago Cubs
and 8. Philadelphia Phillies.
American League 1. Chi
cago White Sox, 2. Baltimore
Orioles, 3. New York Yan
kees, 4. Cleveland Indian-.
5. Minnesota Twins, 6. Detroit
Tigers, 7. Boston Red Sox,
8. Kansas City A's, 9. Los An
geles Angels and 10. Wash
ington Senators.
Kuenn Big Help
Considering the National
League first, the Giants get
the call in this corner because
Harvey Kuenn figures to
make the infield jell instead
of jelly; Bill O'Dell should
get back on the track with
Juan Marichal as a big sur
prise while Willie Mays and
Orlando Cepeda supply the
power.
The Braves will be running
at them as long as Spahn,
Burdette and company have
any arms left at all and prob
ably the best infield in base
ball puts them in the picture
all the way despite Charlie
Dressen's mournful whistling.
The Dodgers are packed
with pitching but Frank How
ard can't make me forget the
dulled or departed likes of
Hodges, Furillo and Snider.
I didn't think the Pirates
would win last year and this
time I'm sure the clock will
strike for the Cinderella club
and they'll ride home in a
pumpkin.
The Cardinals, off their
strong finish last year, are
talking pennant. But this is
not the end of the year, only
another distressing beginning.
The Reds as usual, need pitch
ing help and maybe milkman
Jim Turner can help. But you
have to look through the long
end of the binoculars to see
how much.
The Cubs are still the Cubs.
The Phils are saved from
ninth or 10th because Houston
and New York do not join the
league until next year. You
don't win without runs and
the Phils can't get 'em.
Sox Have Pitching
The Chicago White Sox gel
the nod in what could be t
five-team race in the Ameri
can league on the strength of
their all - powerful pitching,
Last year when the starters
were winning, the relievers
should have been paying their
way into the ball park-and
vice versa. This lime there are
high hopes that they'll get to
gether. The Baltimore Orioles ap
pear to have loo many rookies
who must make good as soph
omores - a debatable chore,
while the Yankees have more
troubles than llicy have been
accustomed to in many years.
Their woes are centered on
the hill and Casey Stengel's
departure won't. be as negligi
ble as the owners try to make
it appear.
The Indians could make' a
run for the top money, or fall
flat on their collective faces.
Overall, their replacements
seem too thin.
The Twins have plenty of
power but the question is
whether the pitching can
come through strong enough
for them to make a first divi
sion run. The Tigers have too
many bright new faces, some
of which have to be false.
At Boston, Jackie Jensen
replaces Ted Williams - a
soothing swap at least -otherwise
this still is a sentimental
but battered plaything. The
Athletics must battle all the
way to prove that, instead of
deserving eighth place, they
don't deserve 10th.
In an out-and-out battle for
ninth and 10th, the Angels
seem to have done better in
the American league's $2 mil
lion grab bag than Washing
ton. Which means that the
"new" Senators-as differenti
ated from the transplanted
and, surprisingly better, "old"
ones -put the long suffering
Washington fans right back
where they were a few years
ago.

South Texas ranch.
lie made the deal at an auc

nerves that outstrips any
frontier game of showdown
poker.
His prize was the legendary
Dobie ranch - a 55,711 acre
kingdom known for mesquile
and mayhem, mavericks and
mystery.
Friendly men now roam its
wide ranges -mending fence,
making repairs and getting
the rich spread ready for its
first herd of cattle in more
than a decade.
Few Texans ever heard of
Walker before he beat down a
handful of the "big rich" for
the Dobie prize.
The bidding started at $1,

Worlham, Houston insurance
millionaire said "SI, 111.000."
E. P. Welder of Victoria push

George Clower what was for

"Neither in the terms of the

daged right forefinger:
"All right," he said, and it
was over.
Nerveless J. O. Walker had
bought the Dobie ranch. The
last owner was South Texas
political boss George Parr,
who borrowed up to the hilt
' on the property and lost it
when a new political regime
foreclosed.
The Dobie ranch was found
ed in 1900 by J. M. Dobie,
uncle of the noted western
author, J. Frank Dolye. It be
came in eighth - and by far
the largest spread - owned by
Walker.
Its 87 sections sprawl
through the Nueces river
country of Duval, Webb and
LaSalle counties. One entire
section, 640 acres, is enclosed
by a 10-foot fence and is re
ported to be one of Texas'
best hunting preserves.
But who is J. O. Walker,
the new "lop hand" of the
Dobie? It's hard to say. The

"The West offers great things to its people, and one
of its most pleasant aspects is Hermitage bourbon."
1961
soft-spoken Walker shuns pub-
ncuy.
"Ever since I bought tha
ranch people have been call
ing me at all hours of the day
and night wanting me to buy
things and give them money,"
he said, explaining his stand.
"They think that just be
cause 1 could buy the ranch,
I have the money to make fab
ulous donations," Walker
added.
How much money does
Walker have? That too is hard
to tell. He got in the sudden
death auction with $100,000
"earnest money." He'll have
to pay the rest after the legal
procedures are complete. May
be it's in his pocket, maybo
it'll be a loan. Walker isn't
saying.
No one in Laredo seems to
know how Walker made his
money.
One acquaintance said, "Ho
is a director of the Union Na
tional Bank . . and he has
found oil on some of his prop
erty. He runs a lot of cattle,
I hear, owns several thousand
acres of Webb county prop
erty." "He's a plain man," said a
waitress who often serves him.
a mid-morning cup of coffee.
"He never throws his money
away. He hates chiselcrs."
