PAGE TWELVE HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON SATURDAY, AI'IOL 3, 1054 Giants Maglie Back In Stride By ED COR1UGAN Associated Press Sports Writer Ever so quietly mostly becaure Manager Leo Durocher has had little to say the New York Giants have been moulding themselves in to a team that could be a threat lor the .National League Pennant. Not that they'll win 1U Brooklyn, Milwaukee and possibly St. Louis seem too strong. But remember that the Olants ran into trouble because of Sal Maglie's bad back and a general breakdown ol mor ale last year. Not so tins time. They've been cuffing Cleveland all over the lot In their sprmg series and yesterday shut out the Tribe, 4-0. behind some really fine pitching by Johnny Antonclll and John McCall. Antonelli's performance is im portant. The young lefthander was obtained in the Bobby Thomson trade. If he gains the control he needs, the parting of Thomson won't be so hard to take. RECORD Durocher is feeling real good. The record against the Indians, suDnosedlv seeking to oust the New York Yankees from first place in the American League, stand at 10-4. Antonclll, along with Reuben Gomez. Jim Heara and Maglie ng- ure to be the big four of the Giant stall with Larry Jansen. Don Lid die and Marv Grissom set for the suot assignments. Hoyt Wllhelm Dave Koslo, George Spencer and Al Corwin are in the bullpen ana that staff is ready lor the opening Jay right -.ow. Davey Williams, the second base man who has been bothered by a back ailment, was the big boy in yesterday's triumph. He hit a two- on home run in the futn inning. APPARENT Two weeks ago. most of the Giant pitchers were "its." Now it seems apparent they nave it ana that spells trouble ior the rest of the league. -it- Brooklyn ran into a meatgrinder in Birmingham, when tne Dodgers acted as punching bags lor Mil waukee. Charley Grimm's men won the game-17-2.- , . Gene Conley, who won 23 games with Toledo last season, became the first Braver" hurler to go aU the way. He yielded only live hits. Carl Erskine and Joe Black were the unhappy recipients of the Braves' blasting. SECOND LOOK Stan Hack took bis second look at the Chicago Cubs and this time he must have dressed after the game in a happier state of mind. Thursday, they were sad, indeed, in dropping a 6-1 decision to the Baltimore Orioles Yesterday, Ralph Kiner. Bill Serena and Luis Marquez hit home inns ..and the Cubs won 8-6. Washington went 11 innings be fore gaining a 7-6 verdict over Cincinnati. Mickey Vernon singled borne the winning run. A smooth seven-inning stint on the mound by Billy Fierce, a borne run by Chicago Carrasquel and a scoreless mopup job by Harry Dor ish spelled a 3-1 triumph for the . Chicago White Sox over the St. Louis Cardinals. MASTERY The Boston Red Sox continued heir mastery over the Philadel phia Phillies with an 8-0 pasting. They cuffed Curt Simmons and Steve Ridzik. Mickey Owen bit a grand slam borne run off Ridzik in the eigbth. Pittsburgh, showing no signs of letting up, beat the Philadelphia A's 4-2 on a three-run homer by Sam Jethroe and another round tripper by Rookie Gair Allie. Bob Hall went all the way and gave " up only six hits. The Detroit Tigers whipped the Redlegs' "B" squad 12-5 on 19 hits. Yale Three Time Ail-American Dies BLESSING, Tex. W) Walter W. (Pudge) Heffelfinger, a three -time football All-America at Yale University and a hallf of lame selection died here Friday at the age of 86. Heffelfinger, In perhaps his greatest honor, was named to a guard position in 1951 on the Ail Time All-America football team in The Associated Press mid-century poll. Heffelfinger, once called "foot ball's greatest lineman" was a guard for Yale during the 1888-91 seasons when the best football was played in the Ivy League. Three times Heffelfinger was named to Walter Camp's All -America team. He missed only as a freshman. In his senior season he played every minute of the 13 game season. Services will be at 2 p.m. Mon day at Howley Cemetery near Blessing, a South Texas town in Matagorda County. Heffelfinger hsjt been ill 10 days. TRAILERS 14 ft. IDEAU-Vacation 20 ft.

Jf JACKIE ROBINSON Pin Meet Leaders Revised SEATTLE in In contrast to Friday's sharply revised lineups of leaders, there were few new names in the American Bowling Congress big 10 lusts Saturday after a desultory round of action Friday. A pair of defending champions failed to iruike a showing: doubles standings were jostled slightly :or one new name, and a Tacoma, Wash., keglcr moved into the singles lineup. For the first time since the fifth day of the 14-day-old competition, there were no changes in the top 10 standings in open team play and for the second straight day the booster team list remained the banie. A Cleveland pair, Harry Smith and Johnny Klares, provided the only alteration in the doubles lad der. They rolled a 1230 to tie for 10th with Dick Phipps and Frank Evans of Salem, Ore. Eddie Koepp and Joe Kissoff. Cleveland's defending doubles champions fell out of the race as they rolled an 1170, far short of the qualifying pace. Koepp had a t34 total and Kissoff 536. Jack Lohre, Tacoma, took over fourth place in the singles division for the day's most significant change. The 38-year-old Tacoma restau- raunt owner who had a 190 aver age going into the ABC meet, put together a 223-203-267 693 to bis place well up in the standings. Tom Carr of Fort Wayne. Ind., knocked off tenth place in the all- events with an 1854 total pin fall. Wash. State Wins WALLA WALLA Lfl Ron Webb and Lee Franks combined to pitch two-hit ball Friday as the Washington State College baseball squad blanked the State Prison Mavericks. 8-0. It was the first game of the season for the Cou gars. IT'S EASY Shirley Sibre shows she needs no our stretched arms for balance water skiing at Cypress Gar dens, Fla. Phone 8355 J lit lbs 1 lfl KBty I If Winner By C.AYI.E TALBOT NEW YORK Lfl There Is a sad day coming for the Brooklyn Dod gers before very long. They know about It, from President Waller O'Malley right down through the club's numerous vice presidents, but there isn't a UiUig In the world they can do to stave it off. The day will arrive when Jackie Robinson limps in on his battend legs and says he's had it, thai they can count nun out. As of that moment it Is entirely possiblo Out brooklyn will begin to cease and desist from dominating the Nation al League. ALL-AKUl'ND Robmsou, the first acknowledged Negro to play in organized base ball and one of I lie country's grout all-around athletes for going on 20 years, finally is about to run do.vn at the age of 35. Our personal feel ing Is that if he makes it through the coming campaign It will be mostly on inner slanima, of which he possesses a reserve. Jackie's close friends say he is in his present stove-up londition because he started exceptionally early and felt thnt he had to play football and basketball and base ball a little harder than anyone else. They say he had put in the equivalent ot a hard big league career while playing in the Negro leagues before Branch Rickey brought him to the Dodgers in 1947. BOTHERING A knee which probably was first on some forgotten football field when he was a backfield star for U C L A, has been bothering Jackie all sprmg. He reinjured it stum bling off a step in Florida, and made it worse by continuing to play in exhibition games. One of these, who has been close to the Brooklyns ever since Rob inson joined them and they began winning pennants, is glumly cer tain v in his own mind that they will not look like the same bail team once he is out of the line-up for good. He says Robinson has supplied the spark and the fighting spirit that made the Dodgers the club they have been. Buzz Bavasi. one of the team's most popular vice presidents, said not to worry. He claimed there Were spvpta! nhvnr. a.i,i 1 wuii,ovt, III icifc IICIU. 11 necessary. He named Don Thomp son and Dick Williams. Stanford Names Dallmar PALO ALTO, Calif, lfl Howie Dallmar is comng back to Sun- ford where he gained national pro minence on trie Indian s 1942 and 1943 basketball teams. Dallmar, 32. who has been head baseball-basketball coach at Penn sylvania the past six years, Fri day signed a three-year contract as head coach replacing Bob Bur nett Al Masters, Stanford director of athletics, announced the appoint ment after a vote by the Stanford Athletic Board. The announcement completed a cycle in which Dallmar left Stan ford )n 1943 for military service, turned pro in 1948 with the Phila delphia Warriors and took over coaching at Perm In 1948. Dallmar, a 6-4 guard, led Stan ford to an NCAA title in 1942. and was named outstanding player of the tourney by sports writers and officials. At 26, he was the nation's young est major college coach when he joined Penn, where his basketball teams had an overall record of 105 victories against 51 defeats. In Ivy League play the record was 48-26. Dallmar will continue piloting the Penn baseball team until the end of May. He reports to Stan ford this summer. TRAPPING IS BOOMING QUEBEC W) A somewhat uncer tain venture 22 years ago, Que bec's beaver Industry has blos somed into a highly profitable bus iness. In recent years the annual value of beaver pelts has ranged from S500.000 to more than one mil lion dollars. In 1932 the first pro vincial beaer reserve was estab lished. Eight years later 800 pelts were taken from the 72,00-square mile reserve on the east coast of James Bay. Today there are 11 reserves in northern Quebec. They coer 185,000 square miles. From these reserves neartv 26.000 neltn are expected this trapping season. TRACTOR TIRE BALSIGER MAIN and TIME OUT 'Watch that second base umpire. He pinches!" Roseburg, Horvath Lead Open GREENSBORO. N.C. i.ft Tile SllkOOO Greater Greensboro Open Golf Tournament headed into It second round Saturday with par all but supreme. An opening-day volley of 148 rounds produced only four of sub-par quality and seven others al par. Heading the first day firing were professionals Bob Rosbtirg. Chicago, and Rudy Horvath, Wind sor, Canada. Each had a lour-under par 61 over the 6.723-yard Starmounl Forest Country Club course. They played four hours apait in comparative obscurity, as did the two other par-breakers, Julius Boros, Southern Pines, N.C, who posted 68, and Milon Marustck. Herkuncr, N.Y., who made it in 70. The glamour boy for the gal lery, as usual, was . Slamming Sammy Snead. The White Sulphur Springs. W. Va.. veteran is alter his fifth Greensboro victory since the 1938 inaugural. Sammy shot n creditable 71 after taking bogies on Nos. 1 and 3. Rosburg. whose chief .claim to fame since turning pro last year was a si. 000 first place finish in the $5,000 Brawley, Calif., Open last January, was one over par after three holes. But four bird ies and another bogie left him two under playing the rather easy 18tn which he caRled with a 25-iopt putt for a three. Horvath is playing the U.S. win ter tour only because he won a Toronto tournament last fall in which the first three finishers were rewarded with an all-expense circuit trip by the sponsor. Tne 30-yeor old Rudy was no ball of fire at the start, with bog ies on Nos. 2 and 3. But he bird led No. 5 to turn one over in the 36. His putter caught fire starting with No. 10 as he blrdled live of the next six holes, two with 15-foot putts.' He missed a five foot birdie putt on 18 for the out right lead. Horvath led the Texas Open In February with a first day 61. but slumped after that to collect only $110.
