PAGE FOURTEEN HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON WEDNESDAY. APRIL 21, '19154 Grudge AAatch Features Martindale, Kameroff Tonight's main event or the Ar mory wrestling card should give . local mat fans something to really holler about, when Tommy Martin dale and Ivan KameroK tangle In what has turned out to be a main treet grudge match. I', all started when Martindale was acting as a referee during the Georges Dusctte-Kameroft tan gle two weeks ago. Martindale came to the rescue of Dusctte after Kameroff had used a few illegal tactics on both The French Canadian, and Mar tindale. After Martlndnle had awarded the decision to Dusctte, Kameroff took It upon himself to swing at Martindale. From this point . on Dusette and Martindale took turns .working the Mad Russian over " with rights to the head. Last week's match added furth er wood to the fire when Kamer off planted two feet in Martin dale's back and knocked him com pletely out of the ring. On his way out he struck hlsnead against tlie ring post, knocking himself out. While Martliiilale lay on the Ar mory floor, Kameroff took tlia blunt of some verbal and other blastings from the ringside crowd. The match Is slated to go one hour, or by the two out of three fall route. In a thirty miiiute semi-wlndup, Oeorsica .Dusettu returns to the Armory, .after a week's, absence, to meet John Paul Hennlng. Henning took Ousette's place last week against Lou Cline and beat the newcomer two out of three falls. John Paul also acted as the referee In the two other bouts and the gallery spectators let him know In no uncertain words that they did not appreciate his decisions in the midget tag team match and winoup. The opener should get the ball rolling for the evenings action with man Hernandez slated to go against Big Bill Fletcher, who has won himself plenty of friends with his wrestling methods in the paut mowings on the local mat pro. gram, . i ; , .1 CLAYTON HANNON.

Portland pleased a crowd of 12. 250 fans who turned out for the afternoon opener by subduing Sac ramento 5-4, then dropped a 6-4 decision before 9,095 at night. The Rainiers drew 17,366 fans Including PCL president Clarence Rowland to their home park. There were 9,940 customers on hand In tho afternoon to watch the Suds blow a two-run' lead and fell 4-2 before Lefty O'Doul's San Diego Pudres. The night game, won by Seattle 2-1 In 11 innings, drew 7,426 fans. The day's work left San Diego out In front in the pennant race by half a game, with Seattle, Portland, Los Angeles and Sacra mento bunched In second place. San Diego -won the day affair at Seattle by taking advantage of Oene Bearden's wlldncss after he had pitched seven scoreless in nings. The Padres pushed over their four runs in the elahth. The night game went 11 innings and a weak Infield tap by Artie Wilson was strong enough to push over the clincher. Tommy Byrne, for mer American Leaguer, was the winning pitcher. Shortstop Frankle Austin won the opener at Portland with a two- run single In the ninth inning. Sacramento was in a hitting mood in the night game, getting 14 safeties while the Ports were held to six. At that, Sacramento used four pitchers to scatter those hits. 8an Francisco shook off Its le thargy and put over a four-run rnllv in the ninth liming to upset Oakland, 9-5. Two costly Oakland errors figured In the nine un earned runs the Seals scored. It was the first meeting of the trans bay rivals and a nightmare for Manager Charley Dressen, who saw his men do everything wrong in the field. Hollywood looked like the PCL champion of yore as it cracked Los Angeles for a 7-1 decision in the first meeting of the cross-town rivals. Big Bob Hall twirled a three hitter, one of them a homer by Angel first baseman Fred Rich ards as the Stars exploded. for four hits and four runs in the eighth off relief hurler Hy Cohen.

IRISH SET CAGE RECORD NOTRE DAME, Ind. tA) Coach Johnny Jordan's Notre Dame bas ketball team set an Irish record last season with 22 victories in 25 games. Notre Dame counts an 83-61 victory, over Holy Cross as the season's highlight.

The Yankees already have dropped one quick decision. They announced with the start of the season they would give each of their players $8 dally meal money while on the road, without the time - honored check signing prlvl- eges, out changed tneir minds in a hurry when they discovered some athletes were dining on hambur gers and pocketing the difference. Howzat again department? Jim Hearn, Giants pitcher, explaining why he was stroked for a home run: "That was a bad pitch, a changeup. It was bad because I had given him the same pitch on the ball before." The most popular gag of the young season is pseudo-serious ref erence to Pittsburgh's "great $24, 000 infield," the point being that each member of Branch Rickey's youthful quartet is believed to be drawing the minimum big league salary of $0,000. The Mahatma has never believed in spoiling promt- ing young ballplayers. Nn writer who interviewed Bucky Hnrris down South j believed the popular Washington manager when he cald he would play Roy Severs In left field even if the eifects of his shoulder operation forced Sie ve's to throw balls in sldearm to his shortstop tor the relay home. But Slevers is out there now and doesn't appear to be hurting the Senators. "They seldom throw any body out from left field anyway," Bucky philosophizes.

The Washlngtonlans had come out to root the home town Senators to a second straight win over the Philadelphia Athletics, but they switched allegiance temporarily and pulled for Kellner to pitch his way to the first no-hitter of his career. Kellner, a 29-year-old tobacco- chewing southpaw, was rocking along behind a 7-0 lead when Way ne Terwllliger, the Senators' sec ond baseman, stepped up to the piate wnn two down in the eighth and rammed a single into center-field.

NEA Sports Editor NEW YORK (EA) Way back there, Roger Bresnanan was catcher and could play any Infield or outfield position with equal skill. But all ballplayers aren't nearly as versatile as uresnanan or, sj. the current Jackie Robinson, which is why casting is as important in baseball as it is in football. If Hal Jeftcoat makes it as a pitcher with the Cubs,- the South nnrnlinliin will further Rtress the misuse of baseball talent. He wast ed six years as a near All-America nut. in tntpr field. He batted an ttnomi 91a in- '2 raised his aver age to no more than .235 last trip. Jef fcoat was cut out 10 oe pitcher from the start, soys he has wanted to pitch for three years. Tho nhtr-nffn Nationals' brass should have acted long before this, but it has long been noted lor mov ing too late and then too frequently In the wrong direction. FAMILY .Tnff.nat MniK fmm a familV Of pitchers. While they didn't stick around for any lengtn or lime, om- ,, hrnfhorti nhftrlV CiimTBR and Bill crashed the majors with the Yankees, Braves and Giants, re spectively.

The result was a 20-game contribu tion toward Cleveland's first pen nant in 28 years. MISCASTING Mi-ntiiitr in hosphnll Is not eon- lined to pitchers. The Cardinals don't have to tell you tnai a greai deal of. their troubles would end If Eddie Stanky would only osk Stanley Musial to play first base instead of employing him in the outfield. Where his one weakness Is somewhat exposed a weak arm. A year ago, Leo uurocner ruinea Daryl Spencer, considered the most accomplished shortstop in Uie min ors and the Giants by not order, ing' Alvin Dark to play third base and like It. Dark hasn't the strong est shortstopplng arm in the bust. nWith the pitchers testifying that Ray Boone never would make a shortstop, the Indians went along with him for five and a half years, sloughed off three consecutive flags In the process. Troded to the Tigers Boone broke out In a rash of home runs performing .brilliantly at third base where he belongs. Getting back to the pitchers, 90 per cent of the professional ball players pitched as kids, where the Km, whn throws hardest- gets the Job. When they can hit, they are placed elsewnere. wnen you come right down to it, most pitchers are kn.ahaii misfit. because all.thev can do is throw. They're the world's worst hitters. , . Effective pitchers are as hard to find as young men who excel in other departments. Yet managers sometimes arex tn lpt a fellow who can't hit a darting ball throw it.
