Northwest After Title Bout For Rock SEATTLE Ml The Post-Intelligencer said Saturday the only main obstacle blocking a title fight In Seattle between heavyweight champion , Rocky Marciano and Don Cockell of England Is the lack of a stadium large enough to handle the paying customers. Dick Sharp, the P-I's boxing writer, said fight manager Jack Hurley had - received assurances from International Boxing Club president Jim Norris that Norrls would do his best to persuade Marciano to fight the British Em pire heavyweight champ in the Pa cific Northwest. Hurley "wants to stage a Mar- clano-Cockell match in Seattle and for the first time got some real encouragement from Norrls, Qham nrrnta "Nrtrrie has HOrltV pretty well tied up and if the bout ever does come on nere it proo-1 ably would b a Jointly-promoted aflair." Sharp said, however, that the stadium problem was the major roadblock The nnlv place big enough would be the University of Wash ington stadium, which up to now has been persona non grata to the pros, ' snarp wrote. The nnivers'ity board of regents previously turned down a request for use of the stadium for a fight between Hurley's fighter, Harry Matthews, and Cockell. "If Hurley can't crack the stym ie here." Sharp said, "Ihcn he will try to sell the (Marciano- Cockell) match for Portland the Multnomah Stadium, which he knows he can get." ; PIONEER LEAGUE Salt Lake City 5. Oreat Falls 3 Billings 9.

Pocatello 7 Manager Changes Seen F& Majors By JACK HAND i (For Gayle Talbot) NEW YORK U1 Mid-August Is rumor time in- the major leagues tile season when man- agers are fired six times a week and twice on Sundays and every second-division club promises to clean house with the roster. Because all 16 managers are nice -fellows who usually answer politely when you ask sane ques tions. It is painful to look ahend to 1955 and realize that some mem bers of the Jolly family will no longer be around. It doesn't make much ' difference, either, whether they had holdover contracts. Nobody knows from day to day wa'.-ther the Phllad3lphia A s are in Philadelphia, Kansas City, Dal las, Toronto or even Shickshlnny, Pr.., but the chances are that Ed die Joost will not survive the move. That doesn't mean neces sarily he failed as a manager but rather that a new face will be needed. . How anybody could manage a team like the A's with the Mack Mothers feuding in the front of fice and tile bills piling up, Is dif ficult to imagine. . Boston may be another trouble spot for there are reports Lou Boudreau has not charmed some of the Fenway patrons with his Red Sox youth movement. Jimmy Dykes' recently survived a vote of confidence by the Balti more players but the club is bumping along near the bottom the the Orioles already are paying Marty Marion and Rogers Hornsby not to manage. From time to time there have been reports Chuck Dressen may come back frorn the- coast to suc ceed Freddie Hutchinson at Detroit or to take over the Phillies job. Terry Moore took the Phils Job from Steve O'Neill, refusing a 1955 contract. It would seem the old Cardinal centerfielder should rate a chance to take the club through an entire season, including spring training, before any final Judg ment is passed. The Cubs made their switch hjst March,- bringing In Stan Hack to replace Phil Cavarretta during spring , training. Hack certainly will be retained after his success with the youngsters. Charlie Grimm, Birdie Tebbetts and Leo Durocher are set and Fred Haney undoubtedly will be back if he can stand the Pirates. Brooklyn went out on tho limb to pick Wal- , ter Alston out' of its farm system season. Tarn O'Shanter Lead Taken By Bob Toski I CHICAGO M Bob Toski, who Is built like a jockey but hits- a golf ball like a Paul Bunyon, is con vinced he is the man of destiny as far as Tarn OShanter's biggest payoff In tournament history Is concerned. The 127-pounder, who will be 28 next month, confidently expects to pick up promoter George 8. May's winning check of $50,000- and sign a $50,000 exhibition contract when Golf's "World" championship ends Sunday. The locker room crooner, known affectionalry by his-colleagues as "The Mighty : Mouse,' splattered Tarn's par 72 with a second round of 65 yesterday for a midway tally of 132 a dozen strokes off the reg ulation. - i His 36-hloe total was the best ever .recorded ' since- Tarn tourna ments' started in 1941 and gave the little golfer from Livingston, N. J., who smacks 300-yard drives, a chance to crack Byron Nelson's 72 hole course mark of 269 set In 1945. Nelson posted 134 at the 36-hole juncture In his record-breaking event. "Somebody told me Nelson was only 29 when he won the first Tarn tournament in 1941 and no one any younger has won here since grinned the 5 foot 6 Toski. "But this time Toski will become the youngest." The experts think Toski is not one to fold under pressure and his tourney record for the season sup ports the belief. In the midst, of his greatest sea son on the money trail, he ranks third In PGA winnings with $14,938 and has scored victories In the Baton Rouge, Wilmington and But he had a horde of money- hounds on his heels as today's third round started. Veterans Johnny Palmer, 36, "World" champion of 1949, and the Indomitable Dutch Harrison, 44. were only- three strokes away at 136. .... Bunched at 136 were Walter Bur kemo, Jack Burke, first round leader Earl Stewart Jr., British Open champion Peter Thomson and unflagging George Fazio. In all. 15 players were under 140. including All - American champion Jerry Barber and Al Besselink at 137 and Belgian Flory Van Donck. Doug Ford, Henry Ransom, Jay Hebert and Lloyd Mangrum at 139.

Detroit Wallops All-Stars ; ' CHICAOO Two-platoon or one-platoon, the College All-Stars are helpless prey of tho. roaring Detroit Lions, two-time champions of the National Football League. . It was Indeed an unlucky Friday the 13th for the collegians before 93.470 at mammoth Soldier Field last night as they took a 31-6 claw ing from the ruthless. Lions. The efficient pros from .the Motor City had been forced to play the limited substitution rule and Junk their two-platoon system just for . this nationally-televised contest. Last year, with free substitution prevailing, the Lions whipped the All-Stars, 24-10. With their stellar passing quar terback, Bobby Layne, riding the bench all the way, the Lions pounced on the Inept collegians for 17 points in the first quarter and then won as they pleased. No. 2 Lion quarterback Tom Dubllnskl, directing only 24 other pros used by Detroit Coach Buddy Parker,, called his shots with deft skill and had the backing of a bristling defense that hamstrung the outclassed All-8tnrs. ' When, the All-Stars scored their only touchdown In the third period on a five-yard end run by Notre Dame's Johnny Latther ft was only because a Llon.iumble on Detroit's five-yard line. offered the opportunity. i - In contrast with long; 'qulck aeri al scoring strikes which typify pro play, the Lions crunohed the 'All Stars with a smashing ground at tack, three touchdowns.coming on short plunges. The Lions' ,14 first downs by rushing broke the game's pro record of 12 by the; Chicago Bears in 1942. After a fumble by Lattncr set up a 36-yard field goal by1 another ex-Notre Dame star, Jim Martin, to start the Lion scoring, Donk wamer crasnea jive yaras to a touchdown and - .Lew Carpenter bolted two yards- for another to give Detroit its 17:0 first pctlod lead. .. ' Lattncr's touchdown shaving the Lion lead to 17-6 only prompted another slashing pro drive, cover ing 67 yards and ending with Car penter's second touchdown, a one yard blast, also in the third period. The final Lion score In the fourth quarter brought further humilia tion to All-Star Coach Jim Tatum of Maryland as end ' Jim Doran stole the ball from Notre Dame's Nell Worden and romped 36 yards to score. . Tatum used 48 of his All-Stars, but the theory'- of fresh players taking the steam out of the Lioqs under the one-platoon system Just didn't work. Heralded quarterback Zeke Brat- owskt of Georgia, property of .the Chicago Bears, threw 14 passes and completed eight. The All-Star running attack was paced by lightly-toutod Veryl Swltzer of Kan sas State, who carried six times for 34 yards. Switzer's 27-yard run from deep in his own territory in the second quarter provided the only collegiate offensive thrill. On defense, end Carlton Massey of Texas was the outstanding Ail-Star. The All-Stars In their dressing room thought the outcome might have been different if Lattner had not fumbled on the game's opening scrimmage play. . However Lion Coach Parker probably sized up the whole game correctly with the comment: "The All-star coaches got all they could out of those boys, but it just wasn't enough. They Just weren't a good team. They were dead. ' Parker also said the one-platoon system hurt the All-Stars more than It did the Lions. It certainly seemed that way. with the All- Stars outrushed. 250 yards to 62, and outpassed 111 yards to 82. The game which marked the fourth straight pro triumph and 13th victory against six defeats and two tics brought gross receipts of S445.650, Including TV and radio fees. The game's most serious casual ty was halfback Chet Hanulak of Maryland, property of the Cleve land Browns, who suffered a frac tured left arm early In the fray.
