Newspaper Page Text. 1 . TUESDAY, JULY 13, 1954 HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS OREGON PAGE a. All-Star Benches Loaded As Game Time Arrives By JOE RKICHLER CLEVELAND I- Willie (The Wallop) Mays and Theodore (The Thumper) Williams, two of base balls top glamor guys, were not In the starting lineups but both were expected to see plenty of action in today's annual AU-Star Game at Cleveland's vast Muni cipal Stadium. This was in the nature of prom ises (or threats) made by National League Manager Walter Alston and his American League counter part, Casey Stengel, as the rival AU-Star pilots discussed the line ups and personnel of their squads on the eve of the 21st midsummer classic. The Nationals, winners of the last four lnlerleague clashes, ruled a decided 8-5 favorite over the re vamped ar.d injury-riddled Ameri cans. But Stengel, in understand ably high, spirits over his New York Yankees' recent rash of vic tories, brimmed with confidence that he would win his first All- star game alter lour successive failures. Game time is 1:30 D.m.. EDT. M HOME-RUN HITTERS "The other fellows are supposed to have all the home run hitters," he said wolfishly. "What do you think I've got? A bunch of powder puffers? "I've got a follow named Wil Hams. Know him? They tell me he's hit a few home runs in his day. . . He'll be in there as soon as the rules permit." ' Mays will be in there at the first opportunity," promised Al ston. "I know the fans would like lo see him and, for that matter, so would-1. It will be nice to have j him on mv side for a change." I Mays, the New York Giants' I sensational outfielder, has banged i a of his 31 home runs against Al- ston's Brooklyn Dodgers, including ! four during the Giants' recent three-game sweep in Brooklyn. Both Mays and Williams finished second in the nationwide fan poll but there is no doubt they re the : "people's choice" among the rec ord 10,000 fans who were expected to watch the All-star spectacle. Mays was second to Brooklyn's Duke Snider for the starting center field post in the National League, Williams, Boston Red Sox slugger, was runner-up to Chicago's Minnie Minose for the left field berth in Ihe American League. PRESENT PLANS i "My present plans call for Mays to go to center field in the fourth inning," Alston said. "I believe I'll shift Snider to right field and Stan Musial to left. Jackie Rob inson, who will start In lelt. ag gravated a knee Injury In Sunday's double-header against Philadelphia I and should be rested. , "Shliting Snider for Mays does ' not mean that I regard Willie the better center fielder. It's just that I think, Duke can Jlayrigh,t. Held. better. He nas piayea mere wnne Willie hasn't. For that matter may even keep Snider in center and play Mays in left. I, won't make up my mind until the last minute. Stengel, confident that his pitch ers will stop "those other guys lrom hlttln' homers." explained why he selected Eddie Ford, his own southpaw, over a varied as sortment of star right-handers. "I was thinking of starting Mike Garcia of Cleveland," said the srizzled New York Yankee mana- ger. "But at 2 o'clock Sunday I was told he couldn't pitch because of an injured finger. My guy, Allie Revnolds. also couldn t pitch be cause of an injury. Most of the others worked Sunday and my guy Ford pitched only three innings Saturday. And he looked very gooa by the wav. LEFT HANDERS "I don't see why I couldn't pitch Ford especially with those guys using three lcit-nanoers torn der. Musial, Ted Kluszewski) ir the lineup. He's not afraid of 'em. He's pitched in a couple of World Series, you know. And he won't be tiled." Stengel declined to disclose any more of his pitching plans but he indicated he would use Bob Por- terfield, Washington's ace right- ' hander, In the middle Innings and either right-hander Sandy Consue gra of the White Sox or Dean Stone, rookie Washington south paw, in the final three. Alston said his pitching and re placement plans depended upon the actions of the American League. He already had named Robin Roberts to start. It was the fourth starting assignment for the Philadelphia Phillies' ace rignt- hander in the last five Ail-Star games. "I'll use my men according to the situation," he snid. "And as for the pitchers, it all depends up on how they feel. After all. five of the seven pitched on bunuay. i have 10 find out Just who can come back with so short a rest. I may use only three pitchers. Then again, I may have to use all sev en.' The game will be beamed to the nation on radio (Mutual) and tele vision (NBC and Mutual).

Heavyweight Tiff Pits Hurricane vs. Cuban By GAYLE TALBOT NEW YORK Ifl) The most Im portant heavyweight bout to be fought the remainder of this year might well be the number sched uled here tomorrow night between Hurricane Jackson, a spectacular 22-year-old Negro from Long Is land, and Nino Valdes, the Cuban speedster who has been yelling for a title shot ever since he defeated Ezzard Charles in a major upset last summer. The bout, which will be televised nationally, assumes added stature because of the growing conviction that Charles will not fight Rocky Marciano again this year, if at all.

Regardless of whether Charles Is permitted to risk his lite again, either this year or next, It Is a fairly safe bet that the winner of tomorrow night's scrap will even tually find himself In the ring with the Rock. Valdes currently is rated the No. 2 contender, while the un inhibited Jackson is listed no bet ter than No. 5. but the latter fig ure is misleading if we are per mitted to deal in potentials. Up to a night in April, when he ran afoul of a cutie named Jimmy Slade and caught a surprise lick ing, Jackson was considered the hottest thing in boxing trunks. Some thought he was a new Joe Louis, destined to win the championship in short order possibly without ev er meeting defeat. Slade, the clev er veteran, put an artistic crimp in these plans for the Hurricane, but the young Negro remains as remarkable a physical specimen as he ever was and It could be a grave mistake to count him out for good. Jackson blamed his first setback on his mother, Mrs. Georgia Jack son, claiming she interfered with his training by keeping him home nights- Since then he has done his training at regular camps, like other fighters. - He -began his "comeback" by scoring a fast technical knockout over Charlie Norkus at the Garden late in May. Valdes' chief claim to fame until he sneaked up on a lethargic Charles down in Florida, was as the reigning heavyweight cham pion of Cuba. He since has cut a swath tnrougn Europe wnue waiting for officials of the Inter national Boxing Club to say hello to him. Laurie Niemi Reports To Canadian Team VANCOUVER, B.C. Ml Laurie Niemi, a sturdy 250-pound tackle who formerly played with the Washington Redskins, put in a sur prise apearance Monday night as the B.C. Lions opened pre-season football training. Niemi was one of 52 candidates on hand to try and gain a berth with the Lions who make their debut in the tough Western Inter provincial Football Union this fall. A graduate of Washington State College in 1948, Niemi was draft ed bv the Redskins and played with the Washington club until last year. He said he planned to work in Vancouver.
