S West Edges East In B Shrine Game PENDLETON lPI The West All-Stars beat back a powerful fourth quarter surge by the East .squad to win the third annual OreRon class B high school Shrine benefit football game 1413 here Saturday.

Walker Cup Selectors Have Troubles DETROIT 11 The final round of ! the 1954 National Amateur went a little way- but not far ennimh- toward relieving the United Slates Wnlker Cup team selectors of their i, j rn, u. ti..u-.i biRgest headache in two yenrs. In the new champion, Arnold Palmer, and r u 11 11 e r-uo Bob Sweeny, the selectors found rather unexpectedly a pair of Rollers eminently qualified to represent the United States in International competition. But they still were loft with the task of picking a representative 10-mai team from a rather non descript group of candidates. And they have comparatively little time in which to do It. The 15th International match for the Walker Cup Is to be played at St. Andrews, Scotland, next May 20-21. Since there's very little im portant amateur competition lett this fall and none before the team must be picked next spring, the selections must be made on the records as they now stand. Out of 13 amateurs who made up the last two U.S. International teams the 1953 Walker Cup and ihm Americas cup only three made any sort of a showing in the 1954 Amateur at the Country Club of Detroit last week. What's more, outside of Palmer no new players have established themselves firmly enough to be sure of selection. Three of the 13 established In ternationalists didn't get past their first matches here last week. Three others went out in the third rcund. One didn't even start and three others aren't currently avail-1 able for such competition. I From the records, Dale Morey. 1953 runner-up to Gene Littler, and Don Cherry. Bill Campbell and ; Billy Joe Patton are the most1 likely choices to team up with ; Palmer and Sweeny. Morey and Cherry lost to the eventual finalists In this year's quarter-finals. Camp bell reached the round of 16 for the third straight year. Patton. though eliminated earlier, can s'nnd on his masters and open, records. i Livestock Men Attention Sell your fat or feeder cattle direct to us and receive full market price.

For Yank, By GAYI.E TALBOT NEW YORK I It doesn't look as though the members of the Baseball Writers Assn. will be able 10 steam up an argument even among themselves when they sif down to vote for the mtijor leagues' two outstanding rookies of the current season. This Is unusual for the boys like to argue. Unless all signs fail, the ballot ing will produce an almost unani mous agreement that Wally Moon, the slugging younv outfield sensa tion of Uie St. Louis Cardinals, and Bob Grim, the part-time barten der who has racked up 17 victories for the Yankees, are tne cream of an exceptionally fine crop of fresh men. The only American Leanuer who ''"' ve agnail rassle 'or me honor appear to be Jim Finigan, the craci young third baseman whom the Philadelphia Aihietics obtained from the Yan kees in their big winter trade. Fini gan promises to be a solid .300 hit ter and is a slick fielder, but his play with the ' bedraggled A 'a scarcely has been as eye-catchin.r as that of Grim in keeping the Yanks In the pennant race. Moon, the phecnom who smntn a home run his first time up in the majors and who had a gooo chance of leading alfNational League bat ters In total hits, has no real rival in sight. It lias been some time since such a phenomenal clouter showed up in either league. He's a deer in ther field, too. One of the most (interesting fea tures about the emergence of Grim and Moon as outright stars is that neither was even 0110 the parent club's roster when he re ported down South the past spring. Moon still was the property of the Cards' Rochester farm club, while orim, alter a two-ytar hitch with GOLF DETROIT Arnold Palmer. 24-year-old Cleveland salesman, won the National Amateur cham pionship, defeating Robert Sweeny 1 up.

In announcing Bach's resigna tion. President Art Rooney of the Stcelers said: "The pressure is just too tough now. In the old days a win or loss didn't matter too much. Now it's a cold-blooded business." The Steelrs had just returned to their training camp after dropping their third straight exhibition game to the Green Bay Packers, an-14, at Pittsburgh Saturday iiiE'nl. Many in the slim crowd of 14, 012 booed and jeered the Steelers. The Steeler management also re portedly was concerned over the lack of attendance. Pittsburgh previously lost to the Chicugo Bears 21-14 and the Balti more Colls 27-21. Bach, 53, who had been coach ing lor nearly 30 years, joined the Steelers lor the 1952 season after two years at St. Bonaventure Col lege here. He succeeded Johnny Michelcsen who resigned.
