British Ryder
Might Be Overtraining
By DAVID M. Mrm
ATLANTA (UPI) - U. S. Cap
tain Arnold Palmer thinks the
British may be over-training for
the Ryder Cup matches and that
unless they slacken off his team
"may have an easy time."
Palmer emphasized that if the
British rest today they could be
a tough opponent when the
matches get underway on Fri
day. But he noted they have
been playing up to 27 holes dally
since Sunday and could be stale
when it counts.
"I'm leaving it up to our play;
ers to set their own pace today,"
Palmer said. He said if some
f1 a nine-hole tuneup IS all
they need fine by him. But he
added he'll probably get in
holes today himself.
"You can't keep going cay an-
er day with no break without
feeling it," Palmer said. "It's
better to pace yourself. I know
what our people can do now and
thou innui what thev need
Both Palmer and John Fal
lon, the non-playing British cap
tain, planned to make public to-
top preliminary match. The
middle scrap will see Nick
Bockwinkle of Minneapolis, who
is fast developing into a favorite
among northwest fans, against
mean - tempered Don Duffy of
San Diego.
The opener sends Art (Boom
Boom) Mahalik, former tackle
with the San Francisco Forty
Niners, against Gil Ane, huge
Hawaiian.
Following the Borne - Dunn
fracas, all six men will climb
into the ring for the free-for-all,
to last until only one man re
mains. He will collect a side
purse of $200, in addition to his
regular evening's paycheck.

SF Forty Niners
Unimpressive
REDWOOD CITY, Calif.
(UPI) Coach Jack Christian
sen was not impressed by the
San Francisco Forty Niners' of
fense after looking both at their
practice session and latest Na
tinnal Football league statistics,
Latest NFL figures show that
the Forty Niners have moved
the ball for fewer yards than
any team in the league only
738 in four contests.
Quarterbacks Bob Waters and
Lamar McHan, both vying for
the starting job, did plenty of
passing in Wednesday's offen
sive workout.
The coach said "they didn't
look good, and they didn't look
bad they just looked fair."
Considering the fact that both
looked bad last Sunday at De
troit, this signified some im
provement. Cuppers
day their respective two-somes
for Friday s matches.
There are eight scotch four
somes lined up for Firday. In
each, two-man U.S. teams take
on two-man British teams with
each team using only one ball
Saturday, there will be eight
four-ball matches with low man
winning each respective hole
and Sunday there will be 16
singles matches.
This means a total of 32
matches during the three - day
affair with a point given for
each match won and a half
point (or each tie with 16V4
points needed to win the solid
gold cup.
The United States leads 11-3
going into the 15th biennial
matches and is an odds-on fav
orite to repeat this year with
the likes of Palmer, U.S. Open
Champion Julius Boros, Gene
Littler, Billy Casper and Dow

members of the U.S. team are

ARMLESS FOOTBALLER Walter (Chris) Schumann, 15, arm
less since birth, is the place-kicker for the Classical High school
football team at Providence, R.I. His teammate, Dick Blackman
(1), holds the ball as Chris practices.
Armless Footballer
Star Place-Kicker
By ROBERT FEINBERG
PROVIDENCE, R.I. (UPI) -The
star place-kicker on the
Classical High school football
team has never made a tackle
in his life.
Walter Christian Schumann, a
junior, was born 15 years ago
without arms.
Chris spent eight years in Illi
nois and did odd chores for the
football team at the University
of Illinois where his father was
a professor.
The Schumanns moved to
Swarthmore, Pa., when Chris
was 10, but he became home
sick for Illinois.
"I thought of a plan that would
take me back," Chris said. "I
intended to learn how to kick a
football and return to play for
the University of Illinois team."
Practiced Kicking
He practiced kicking a minia
ture football over a steel bar
and three years later found him
self a member of the Swarth
more High School football team.
During his first season, Chris
Mets, Colts
Take Picks
In Draft
CINCINNATI, Ohio (UPI) -The
New York Mets and Hous
ton Colts, firmly settled at the
bottom of the National league
after two years, had an oppor
tunity to improve themselves to
day in a special draft of person
nel from the eight other teams.
Four players from each team
will be eligible for the draft but
under the special rules the Mets
and Colts may choose only one
of the four unless the other clubs
agree. The price on each player
is $30,000.
The special draft was agreed
upon during the World Series for
the sole purpose of strengthen
ing the two expansion teams.
New York, which has finished
10th both years, was to choose
first, a right it won by a coin
toss last Friday.
Neither team is bound to pick
a full allotment of players. For
example, the Colts could pick
one and the Mets seven if they
so choose.
Under the rules, the players
up for draft must have been on
National league rosters prior to
Aug. 31.
The Mets and Colts received
the official lists from the Na
tional league office Tuesday.
The lists have not been made
public.

recalled, he was successful on
seven kicks, had two blocked
and missed on six others.
His reason for playing foot
ball is simple.
"I want to be like others," he
said, "not in appearance, but in
the sense of participating with
them."
He said he could have worn
artificial limbs, but they were
uncomfortable so he had to
learn to play without them.
Coach Al Morro, who captain
ed the Boston college football
squad in 1942 when it went to the
Sugar Bowl, said place-kicking
is a rarity in high school foot
ball. "You need not only a strong
kicker," he said, "but someone
with a good pair of hands who
can catch the ball and place it
to be kicked and a center who
can pitch the ball back with ac
curacy, and whose got the time
to train all these people?"
But, time was made and a
system was worked out.
The team manager, a 15 year
old junior named Richard
Blackman, holds the ball and
Schumann kicks. Neither boy
wears a practice uniform except
for football shoes. The team s
center, Anthony Pizzutti, takes a
half hour off from practice, to
pitch the ball to them.
At home Chris has some
heavy books from his father's
shelf and tied to his right leg
while he sits in a chair. He
moves his leg up and down to
strengthen the muscles that will
make his kicking more accur
ate. The youngster does not like
publicity nor does he want to be
held up as an example.
"I, don't do everything I'm
supposed to do," he said.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (UPI) -Linfield

Rogue River SaSnion
Remindful
PORTLAND Oregon anglers
on the Rogue river found a sal
mon bonanza this year reminis
cent of the good old days. This
year the mouth of the Rogue
and adjacent offshore waters
may well see the highest catch
by sportsmen in the 14 years of
evaluation.
Umpqua river anglers also
found salmon angling at its best.
During the period of August 15
through September 15 at Win
chester bay just over 6,400
anglers reported taking almost
5,800 salmon for one of the best
months of the season.
According to creel checks on
the lower Rogue more than
7,400 angler trips were recorded
with a reported take by anglers
of almost 4,200 salmon by Sept.
15, with another month or two
of the salmon season still to go.
Only the completed seasons of
1952 and 1953 exceed the total
catch so far recorded in this
area.
The big news on the Rogue
was the tremendous run of
spring chinook heading up
stream to the spawning beds.

a game that traditionally ha
been a tough one for the Raid
ers. Oregon College of Education
draws the weekly conference
bye, but has anything but a soft
touch in meeting Pacific of the
Northwest conference in Forest
Grove.
Frank Ellis Leads
Frank Ellis of OCE jumped
back into the rushing lead in his
weekly leap-frog contest with
Andy Berkis of PSC. Ellis has
netted 220 yards in 60 carries
for a 3.6 yard per carry aver
age. Berkis has averaged 4.5
having gained 216 yards in 48
smashes at enemy lines. Bob
Battle of Oregon Tech jumped
from eighth to third with 173
yards in three games.
Bill Bailey of SOC still is the
passing leader with 33 comple
tions in 56 attempts but Mike
Glines of OTI moved PSC's
Mike Schrunk out of second
place by a single completion.
Glines now has 27 completions
in 60 attempts while Schrunk
has 26 of 57, but the PSC quar
terback has gained the most
aerial yardage (363) and tossed
the most TD passes (4).
Denny Ellis of SOC is the new
reception leader, having picked
off 11 for 116 yards. Jim Hol
lingsworth of PSC is second, tied
with Vic Ventura of OTI, with
10. Ellis also leads the confer
ence punters with a 38.1 yard
average on 10 kicks. Doug Ol
son of SOC continues to lead the
scoring parade with 28 points
on 3 TDs and 10 PATs.
