Photo by Don Kettler Pelican Matmen Book Double Weekend Date Pioneer May Get New Clubs SALT LAKE CITY UPl Direc tors of the Pioneer Baseball League will meet Sunday at Poca tello, Idaho, amid speculation there will be a realignment of the loop's eight teams. The president of the Class C cir cuit., Claude Engberg, said Tues day only that the "status of 8 couple of clubs" would be consid' ered. The pocatello and Magic Valley teams operated in the red last year. And talk of a realignment has centered around the two Idaho clubs. Butte and Missoula, in Montana, Casper, Wyo., and Grand Junction. Colo., were listed by Engberg as possible new members of the loop. The present Pioneer League line up consists of Billings and Great Falls in Montana; Idaho Palls, Po catello, Boise and Magic Valley in Idaho, and Salt Lake City and Ogden, in Utah. The Magic Valley club is owned by fans in the South Central Idaho area, centered by Twin Palls. Detroit Boxer Wins Fight Twice by Kayo, Decision COLUMBUS, Ohio' (fl There was only one thing Columbus light fans were sure of Wednesday: They had seen something nev in boxing. They were also pretty certain that a lightweight from Detroit named Marty Marshall can whip Herbie Moore of Cincinnati, : They saw him do it twice Tues day night. ' First Marshall knocked out Moore in the third round. Then he fought him seven more rounds for a unanimous decision. Both verdicts were apparently official.

Maranville Dies at 61 NEW YORK W Walter (Rabbit) Maranville, rated as one of the greatest fieldina shortstops in base ball history and a member of the 1914 "miracle" Boston Braves, died last night of a heart attack. He was 61. 1 Death came to the little man, who started his major league ca reer with the Boston Braves in 1912 and wound up with the same club in 1S35, at his home in the Woodside section of New York. Burial will be at Springfield, Mass. He is survived by his widow Helene and a daughter, Mrs. Peter McGuinis of Rochester, N.Y. In between the times he played with the Braves, he was a member of the Pittsburgh Pirates, Chicago Cubs, Brooklyn Dodgers and the St. Louis Cardinals, And ne man- aged the Cubs briefly during the 1925 season and piloted the Braves, also for a short period, in 1929. After breaking a leg in a 1934 spring exhibition game with the New York Yankees, the Rabbit wound up his major league career the following year. TROJANS RALLY FOR 35-34 WIN for the lirst two rounds of their scheduled 10 rounder. Then Marsh all caught Moore with a left hook near the close of the third round. Moore went down. Lou Luzader, counting for the knockdown, quit at (he count of eight as Moore started to rise. Referee Mut Schartz. believing Luzader h ad counted to 10, raised Marshall's hands In victory. Marshall and his handlers broke for their dressing room. The Columbus Boxing Commis sion decided the referee was wrong and demanded Marshall return to the ring. He refused. The commission got tough: They gave Moore the decision. When that didn't bring Marshall out of his dressing room, the commissioners decftied to fine him and suspend him a year. That did it. Marshall was ready to light. After Marshall and Moore final ly got back in the ring, Marshall outlasted his rival for seven more rounds. Cold Winter Seen for Pro Tour The Sacred Heart Trojans came from behind in the second half last night to nip the Tulelake Honkers, 35-34, on the winners' court. With Bill Snider pacing the at tack, the Trojans wiped out a 10-23 halltlme advantage by Tulelake and closed the count to 23-24 going into the fourth quarter, holding the Honkers to just one free throw in the third period. Tule's Ablard missed a free shot that would have sent the game into overtime in the last few seconds of play. Snider scored 16 points while the Honkers' Allied led Tulelake with 15.

Gassaway To Manage Bees SALT LAKE CITY Wl Charlie Gassaway was reappointed Tues day as manager of the Salt Lake Bees for the 1954 Pioneer League baseball season. Richmond Looks "In" RICHMOND, Va. W Only mere formality remains to make Richmond a full-fledged member of the Class AAA International League. The city had four of its citizens -two of whom mortgaged their homes to raise funds to thank for putting it in business in triple-A baseball. None of the four-member syndicate was identified. The syndicate came up with $200,000 last night shortly before the International League's mid night deadline lor the city to find a park that would meet triple-A specifications. Parker Field will be converted to seat between 10, U00 and 12,000 spectators. Frank Shaughnessy, president of the league, said in Montreal last night that Richmond's entrance is a mere formality and described the work of Richmond s mayor, Dr. Ed Haddock, as "wonderful" and "tremendous" in driving for the franchise. The league probably will meet in New York next week to induct Richmond, since 1932 a member of the Class B Piedmont League. At the same time, Havana, Cuba, a member of the Class B Florida International League, will be admitted. By GAYLE TALBOT NEW YORK UPh- Local critics who attended the kickoff of Jack Kramer's latest tennis tour gained the distinct impression that the nonplaying promoter and his troupe of professionals are in lor a cold, cold winter financially. Although no official attendance figures were given out for the two day stand at Madison Square Car den, one experienced observer es timated that no more than 7,500 paid their way in and that Kramer started off with a $2,500 deficit after meeting expenses, including $10,000 prize money. Kramer's decision to withdraw from singles play has hurt that and the fact that he has no new name star fresh from the amateur ranks such as Frank Scdgman was a year ago. It became painfully obvious in Don Budge's first two starts that the once-great star no longer can move about fast enough to compete with the likes of fiedg- man, Pancho Gonzales and Fancho Segura. Our exclusive prediction is that Kramer's ailing back will make a miraculous recovery before too many bites have been taken from his bankroll, A man who was there claims he saw scalpers outside the Sugar Bowl on New Year's Day hawking tickets at several, dollars less than they were being offered for sale at the box office windows. He said that bowl officials blamed television, rather than the weakness of their attraction, and promised to blackout the New Or leans area next year. Nine out of 10 Pittsburgh fans are burning over the deal which sent infielder Danny O'Connell to Milwaukee in exchange for six as sorted players and cash, reports Chilly Doyle in that city's Sun Telegraph. He relays the following typical reaction of the man in the street to his suggestion that 6-for-1 looked like smart business on Branch Rickey's part: "Hey, wise guy we can finish last with a guy like Danny and look like a ball club most of the time. Stick around and watch the 1954 Jerks and you'll get a thrill, Pete Cawthon, Alabama's direc tor of athletics, denies emphatical ly there was any truth to the yarn that he invented the "12th man" play back In the 20s when he was coaching Austin College at Sherman, Tex. Well, it was a good story, any way, and one which we recall en joyed friendly circulation among Pete's fellow coaches' of the era. Maybe they just invented it to IN lustrate how smart they thought Pete was. If we offended an old friend in the retelling, we are sorry. 9th and Pin Phone 3188 HOCKEY By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Tuesday's Results WESTERN LEAGUE Saskatoon 1, Calgary 1 Victoria 3.

IPI The Senior Bowl football game here Saturday looms as a match between the passing wizardry of Steve Owen's South squad and the running at tack of Paul Brown's Northerners. The accurate right arms of pass ers Zeke Bratkowski of Georgia, Vince Dooley of Auburn and Jim Gray of East Texas Teachers have established the South as a 7-point favorite. The trio will aim their tosses principally at. Dreher Gas kin of Clemson and Dave Davis ol Georgia Tech, 6 ieet 4 ends. RUNNING In the North camp, the accent has been on running, with Brown trying out two potent combinatins. One has Northwestern s Dick Thomas at quarterback, Michigan State 5 Billy Wells and Viuanova s Gene Filipski at the halfback posi tions, and West Virginia's Tom All- man at fullback. In the other, Fordham's Roger Franz directs UCLA's Bill Stits and Wisconsin's Harland Carl at half back and Maryland's Ralph Felton at fullback. But observers aren't counting out the North's passing or the South's running. TALENT And no matter what type at tacks are used each team will have plenty of up-front talent to rely UDon. In addition to Don Dohoney ol Michigan State, All America line man for the North, are tackle Geor ge Jacoby of Ohio State and center jerry Hilgenberg of Iowa. The South's All America linemen are two guards, Crawford Mims of Mississippi and J. D. Roberts of Oklahoma. Club 3 Easlea Two 1 f Ita V .'1 Flka 1 J f S!5 Tmti 3 Moose 1 Rlmaft 4 Scars 0 " One 4 U.
