PAGE TEN HERALD ANT) NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON SATURDAY. AUfil'ST t. TIME OUT! "Don't ret much Cham hear the pines, do yeaf AN IPCOMING baek-to-acbool edition brings up football, regard less of the early date. So let's take just a brief, sketchy dip Into the local pigskin picture. On the high school side, there's one big consolation; It's unlikely the Pels will finish with a shoddier won-and-lost rec ord than they did last year. Actual statistics dont immedi ately come to mind, but when the Pels looked back on a 3-6-1 sea son's run, they were looking at one of the worst football records In the school's history. But with nine lettermen back, it's - almost a cinch there'll be some improvement. . In fact, early muttertngs have the Pels down for a brilliant sea son, maybe an all-the-way ride, with last year's state champion Grants Pass team losing almost everbody but the water boy. LETTERMEN on ' band come September-time will include .five backfield men and four linemen. Kenny Young leads the pack. Last year, running for a medi ocre team. Young was the only Pelican back who could - gain ground with any consistency in ball packing assignments. If expected Improvement Is there and Young as better blocking help than be did last year, he could very well go down as one of the state's best running backs. Dick Lundsten and. George (Butcher Boy) Hanson both run hard and another year of ex perience should make both more dangerous. "George Maskell, who was out standing as a defensive halfback last year, is also a returnee. Calvin Gilmore. who didn't 'lire up to expectations last season, is the fifth returning letterman back. If Cat hits his potential. Bossman Bob Hendershott will have the nucleus for a, high-stepping, back field. Paul McCall, who takes over as the backfield skipper . succeeding Dutch French, should help the situ ation with bis knowledge of duties in that department. It's too early -to- tell, but word that has -drifted my way indicates that Jim Daugherty, Larry Yar nell and Doug Pence will be quar reling for the quarterback job. ' THE RETURNING linemen are Doug Campbell. Matt Del Fattl, Jack Horton and Vernon Pryor. Those who follow football closely her ara generally agreed that 1062 will be the beginning of a, three year span of gridiron supremacy for the Pelicans. Last year lettermen were hard to find. The team was green and showed it many , times. . This year should be an entirely different picture. If the dope sheet is anywhere near correct. Hendershott is toying with' the Idea of returning to tne straight T' formation without variations and a balanced line. An early and as this piece,: a sketchy glimpse of the Oregon Tech Owls will be taken- in Ridin' Herd column soon. But it's my guess one- month before King Football takes over that both the Klamath Palls teams, OTI and KUHS, will give football fans something to shout about. Heafons Win 8th Heaton's Machine won ltselghth straight game in the Junior Base ball League in a 1-0 pitchers' battle last night, The victory sent Heaton's well along the way to a second-round win, after winning the first round. Wise Boys Will Favor Or Joe Against Rocky By GAYLE TALBOT ; " NEW YORK OR Men vhn hive been around the fight game for a long time and whose words carry some authority are belna- Quoted as saying that Rocky Marclano mis as nara. or narder, than either Jack Dempsey or Joe Louis did In his prune and that he will scalp Jersey Joe Walcott when they meet. , Now, wait a minute. We saw Rocky belt Harrv Matt hews the other night, too. That was it pretty fair wallop, the left hook which dimmed the lights for Har ry. But let us not be precipitate and start betting money we can't afford to lose, . .. The Broadway characters who make a good living by setting fight odds and then backing their Judg ment against all comers have been polled In recent days, and without exception they prophesy that Old Folks, the champion, will enter the ring a solid favorite over his unbeaten young challenger.' They place the probable odds at around 7-5 on a man-to-man basis. SAME BOYS , . : These are the same fellows who made Marclano a 13-6 choice over Matthews and stuck to It right to the end in the face of - a wide spread, if unfortunate, belief that the price was an overlay. Brooklyn, Yankees Slugged ' By JACK HAND Associated Press Sports Writer Rookie Jim (Dusty) Rhodes club bed out a three-run homer Friday night to lead the New York Gainus to 7-3 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Giants, who have missed many chances to gain on Brook lyn in the National League pen nant chase the past week, picked up a full game when the Dodgers lost to Chicago. 6-1. New York now trails Brooklyn by five games. St. Louis slugged a parade of Philadelphia pitchers for 14 hits and a 10-5 decision to end the Phils' six-game win string. Four runs in a ninth-inning spurt that Included triples by Stan Muslal and Solly Hemus and a two-run homer by Enos Slaughter nailed down the win.

What they knew all along was that Matthews wss no more than a blown up light heavyweight, and they, judged quite correctly that he would come undone in a hurry the first time Marclano tagged blm squarely. They knew, as well, that the cosst veteran could not hit hard enough to keep Rocky in his place. HEAVIER Walcott Is different. Jersey Joe, they emphasise, Is a big man. some pounds heavier than Mar clano 'and probably as strong as tne rugged boy from Brockton, Mass. He is. of course, a far better boxer than Rocky, who still is a virtual beginner in that Dhase of his career, and he can hit like a ton oi bricks when an opening comes. Also, he can take a punch. It all adds up, as the wise money sees it, to a fairly easy victory for the old nappy guv. most proDaoiy oy a decision at tne end of 16 rounds. They figure that Walcott will gait himself for the full route, taking no unnecessary risks along the way and throwing his stemwlnder right only If and when he gets Marclano In a bad way. if .- v , I , 7 j;. no By The Associated Press NATIONAL LEAGUE W L Pet- Brooklyn New York St. Louis Philadelphia Chicago Boston Cincinnati Pittsburgh .681 .638 .580 .535 .515 .413 41 56 40 60 38 75 .400 .273 J-rid lay a Results New York 7.

In other loop games, the Oakland Acorns rallied behind the three-hit pitching of Al Gettel to nip the Los Angeles Angels 1-0 and snap an Oak losing streak at five games.
