KLAMATH SPORT NOTES
Br VIRGIL GROSS
The Pelican baseball team
will rest over the Fourth of
July and resume play the fol
lowing weekend with an un
named opponent. The attend
ance at Sunday's game was ter
rible and a disgrace to baseball
itself. There was scarcely
enough money made on this
NEW YORK. June 30 P
The clocks will start striking
V-12 o'clock at a good many col
leges tomorrow and a lot of
coaches who have been wonder
ing whether they'd have jobs
next fall can start finding out
for sure ... In case you can't
guess, V-12 o'clock stands for
the hour when large batches of
navy trainees will report at the
colleges. Ditto smaller batches
of marines ... It may bring
good news, too. For instance,
Yale is getting Sam Mele and
Johnny Simmons, better-than-fair
basketball and baseball play
ers from NYU via the marines
. . .Tub Thumper Horace Rene
gar of Tulane reports that if he
had to draw up a football roster
right now, he'd have just one
name, Joe Renfroe, who is 4-F
but an all-America halfback pos
sibility. Nevertheless Horace
figures that navy trainees will
help give the green wave a good
team .
A SHORT SNORTER
When Dewey "Snorter" Lust
er, Oklahoma grid coach, learned
that ten of his sooners were be
ing called up by the marines,
leaving him with only one sur
vivor of last year's squad, Boone
Baker, a sophomore wingback.
Snorter moaned: "Looks like
we're coming in on a wingback
and a prayer."
TODAY'S GUEST STAR
Bill Reddyt Syracuse (N.Y.)
Post-Standard: "One of the men
who didn't pick his job because
it went well with his name is
the bluecoated arbiter working
here with Roy Van Graflan. The
umpire's name is Robb."
...
BARKLEY UP THE WRONG
TREE
Wichita baseball fans insist
this column was in error in say
ing that Red Barkley, the new
Dodger shortstop, wasn't a "reg
ular" on the Cessna semi-pro
team last year just because he
played only half his team's games
in the national tourney. It was
a leg injury that kept him out
. . . Incidentally, Branch Rickey
reports that Barkley has made
himself popular with the Dod
gers by cussing himself out when
he returns to the bench after
making a bad play ... "I got the
impression," says Branch, "that
he was well, kind of screw
ballish." SERVICE DEPT.
Yeoman Morris Siegel, sports
columnist of the Norfolk naval
training station "Seabag" reports
that Phil Rizzuto has done more
damage to the rival naval air sta

did to Pantelleria." In a recent

game to pay the expenses of
the Bend team, let alone pay
for balls and bats and the um
pires. As a result of the poor
crowd, Pete Lesmeister, Pelican
business manager, says few
home games can possibly be
scheduled this year since the
team would undoubtedly get
deeply in debt.
Bud Larson, last year's Peli
can shortstop, from latest re
ports had a chance to sign with
the Brooklyn Dodgers, but did
not sign because of the uncer
tainty of his military status.
The Dodgers would have sent
him to the Durham club in
South Carolina, a class B outfit.
Bill Hanauska definitely
showed improvement in his
pitching in Sunday's encounter
with Bend especially in con
1rol. He seems to have lost the
wildness he had two years ago
while with the Pelicans, and
works on the corners on every
pitch. His speed and curve balls
have definitely bettered along
with his experience.
Bill left for Portland Monday
where he will work a few more
days before shoving off for Wil
lamette university and the navy
V-7.

was the boy who hit all those

Seols Shellock Beavers by
8 to 2; Portlanders Look
Bod After Long Climb Up
By The Associated Pros
The lucky Portland Beavers,
who have been boosting their
stock in the Pacific Coast Base
ball league regularly of late,
came a cropper as they opened
a nine-game series against the
San Francisco Seals in the Seals'
home stadium yesterday.
In fact, you might say that
the Beavers looked a lot more
like the team that started the
season than the slugging bunch
of boys who climbed steadily,
after getting started to roll, into
the first division as the Seals
shellacked them to the tune of
8 to 2.
Rookie outfielder George Met
kovich was the particular thorn
in Portland's rose bush as he
lined out a triple 410 feet long
to drive in two runs and then
scored himself in the third in
ning. Just to cap the climax he
stopped a threatened Beaver
rally in the fourth by scooping
up Larry Barton's opener with
two men on base.
In the only other game of the
day. Shortstop Mickey Burnett
of Sacramento let in two runs on
an error giving Hollywood a 10
inning 4 to 3 victory over the
Senators. It was a heartbreaker
for Bud Byerly, who limited the
Stars to five hits while the
Solons were collecting 10 off
two Hollywood chuckers. .
Today Seattle opens a nine
game series against the league
leading Los Angeles Angels with
a doubleheader in the Angel
park and San Diego and Oak

Patty Berg's Tricky Knee
Holds Up for Second Round
By CHARLES CHAMBERLAIN
CHICAGO, June 30 (T)
There seldom was a knee in
sports history, including those
tricky ones of football stars,
that has become as famous as
Patty Berg's.
Although she has to keep it
tightly bound and walks with
a slight limp, the Minneapolis
redhead has not developed an
inferiority complex about it.
Her cheery personality flows
on. In fact, after an interview
with her, she leaves the impres
sion that she is downright proud
of that scarred knee, which was
twisted and crushed in an auto
mishap in Texas in December,
1941.
Patty was in her usual lolly
frame of mind after eliminating
the veteran match play ace,
Mrs. Opal S. Hill of Kansas
City, Mo., 5 and 3 to move into
today's second round of the
women's western open. Patty,
the tournament medalist with
a neat par 76, drew a capable
opponent, Mary Agnes Wall of
Menominee, Mich. If she sur
vives this morning's round the
gallant comebacker will sweep
into the quarter finals in the
afternoon. But 36 holes of com
petition frankly worried her.
"It's my big test," she said.
"A year ago I started practic
ing for half an hour a day until
I got so I could pivot fairly
well. Then I started playing a
