The afternoon action will be the last home game that the Lumber jacks will play this year as far as the league s schedule is concerned and it is a vital game for the home standing 'Jacks. Bend is leading the league and has only been beaten by Lakeview once this year, while the other league entries have been able to do very little damage to the Loggers. In their past meetings, tne 'Jacks have pushed the Loggers all tne way to the last inning or have been! leaning in uie mic uuiuiks wmj- w have Bend counter with one or two runs to sew up the contest In the last frame or two. Bend's pitching staff will be bol stered by Paul Gehrman, an ex- Clnctnnati Redlcg pitcher, and Jim Duff, who twirled last week's win for the Loggers over Lakeview 9-0. Manager Hi Hatfield will be able to select his ball club from a full team this week, something that he has been unable to do in the past few weeks. Leroy Coleman, who has missed th3 last few league contests be cause of a sore arm, will be back In the Eldorado spangles, as will Don Dexter, tile hard hitting little inflclder that helped the 'Jacks earlier in the season. Another ad dition, John Niles, an ex-Medford high school diamond star has also Joined the Eldorado club and Is ex pected to help with the outfield duties. . , . Either Fran Miller or JoJo George will be on the mound this weekend, while Art Westhouse or Ron Owings will do the catching. Owlngs could also be ' slated for some infield duty at shortstop or third base. The Infield will probably be Irv Whltt at first base, Don Sunltsch at third, Coleman at second and heavy hitting Dick Lundsten will be working at second base. Willie Dunster, Hatfield and Art Raymond, three of the club's lead ing hitters will probably open in the outfield positions, while further help can be expected from George or Miller, whichever one doesn't pitch, Lundsten and wiics.

CLAYTON HANNON, Sports Editor Stanky Shows Signs Of Honest Apology By JACK HAND For Oayle Talbot NEW YORK til Subdued Is the word for the "new" Eddie Stanky who brought his Cardinals to the Polo Grounds for a series with his old playmates, the league-leading Giants. No fiery-tempered little man came striding out of the dugout, with a chip on his shoulder, to wrangle with the umpires. He had a chance too, In the first game of the series when Stan Musial was called out at first on a very close play. The fiery skipper with the un welcome nickname of "The Brat" wasn't even on the field. Coach Johnny Riddle took his place on the lines at third base as he had done during Stanky's five-day sus pension. Apparently Stanky has taken to heart the blast of public disappro val that greeted his recent demon stration in St. Louis, where even the home fans cheered a forfeit decision against the Cardinals. As he said In St. Louis, "this affair has opened my eyes." Off the field, In the privacy of the St. Louis clubhouse, Stanky was courteous, guarded In all an swers and still talking about win ning the pennant. "Don't think we're out there go ing through the motions," he said. "We're still in this thing. We've still got a chance to win the pen nant." Stanky straightened his tie in a mirror as he talked. In the background, Musial and Red Schoendienst listened. As the Cardinals are 14 ' L.gam'es back and still in danger of an at tack from the rear by other second-division clubs, Stanky's talk had the hollow ring of fight camp publicity. Still, he Is the kind of man who never stops believing in the impossible. Stanky. the ballplayer, was a spirited competitor who believed in using any means, not specifically condemend by the rule book, to win a ball game. Remember how he shifted around back of second base, waving his hands, to 'distract a batter In 1950 until Ford Frick, then league president, ruled such arm waving should be illegal In the future? And the time he kicked the ball out of Phil Riz zuto's glove in the World Series of 1951? "My spirit and the desire to win could never be broken," Stanky said at St. Louis last week. "How ever, my human and public rela tions will be improved." It seems that Stanky finally is beginning to realize the differ ence between his status as an "anything to win" player and his responsibilities as a manager to his owner and the millions of fans irom coast to coast. Johnson Wins Unanimously Over Jones NEW YORK ( George John son, the unranked Trenton, N. J., middleweight, is back in business again after his upset victory over sluggish Bobby Jones, the No. 5 boy in the division. Jones hasn't won a fight since he spurned an alleged $15,000 bribe offer before his June 11 bout with Joe Giardello. . Although Jones was an 8 to 5 favorite, Johnson was a unanimous decision Wednesday night at Mad ison Square Garden in ft national televised bout that drew a crowd of no more than 1,500. The Inter national Boxing Club didn't bother to announce any figures. Johnson, 151 to Jones' 157, sim ply threw too many punches for the Oakland, Calif., veteran of 66 pro bouts. Only in the fifth, sixth and ninth did Jones flurry. Each time he stopped before he could do any heavy damage. Johnson's jab, chopping right and right up percut all were effective in the no-knockdown bout. Bernie Bond, leading trainer at Monmouth Park race track, fought in both the European and Pacific theaters as an infantryman. He rose from private to captain.

Heavers Divide With San Diego By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS San Diego has lost more precious ground in its fight to overhaul the fast traveling Hollywood Stars.
