Th el ni a Parrish Carlson, former All-American ouliieldcr and several times all-state pitcher, hooked into a pitching duel with Forest Grove's Thommie Thompson to give the Conger Field fans, nearly 1,200 In all, a first rate show, It was the top of the fourth before the Mer maids were able to collect a tally off Thompson's deliveries. Leading 1-0 going into the top of the seventh, Oswego pushed , across two unearned runs as Flo Oleic was hit by a pitched ball and Madelyn Lindsay walked.

Carlson gave up but two hits. slnelec by Barbara Weoing and Joyce McNeil, while setting nine Medolarlc hitters down with her strikeout pitch. Oswego only got five singles off Thompson s serv ings, but seven walks and untimely errors by her teammates proved to be costly. Both tee ni5 played a firrd-up brand of softball, with the Oswego rlub showing a little bit more pol ish and diamond know-how. It was this same type of play that Rave the Mermaids the 105'J state cham pionship. In the second game played Inst night at Conger No. 1, Merrill "grew on' the crowd, not only because they were a local entry, but also because of their hustling and competitive spirit.

Conner of Eugene walked and Joyce Boent- gen was safe on an error.

By EU SAINSBL'RY I'nited Press Sports Writer CHICAGO (UPl The 1955 Col lege All stars, coached by proles sional tutors for the first time. were 12 points underdogs today for tonight's 22nd annus! battle with the Natlonr.l Fooiball i.e'ia,,!- champion5, this year the Cleveland Browns. A crowd of 75.000 was expected for the Soldier Field spectacle with gross gate, including television and radio receipts, of about $4C0, 000. equalling the 1954 record. The All Stars were prepared for the scrap by Curly Lambeau, for mer Green Bay Packer, Chicago Cardinal and Washington Redskin Coach, with assistance from Steve Owen, onetime New York Giants coach; Hunk Anderson, once with the Chicago Bears, and Hampton Poole, former coach of the Los Angeles Rams. In the past, the collegians were trained by college coaches, but the sponsors switched to the profes sional staff this season after four straight defeats by the pros by cne-sided margins. The collegians have won six games, the last in 1950 with a 17-7 triumph over Philadelphia, while the pro's have 13 triumphs with two games tied. The pro's were the favorites this year chiefly because the Browns, champions of the All America Con ference for each year of Its exist ence, will bring into the game the same experienced personnel which carried to the league crown last year, with only one exception. Quarterback Otto Graham re tired during the winter and will be replaced tonight by George Rat- lerman, wno saw only Incidental service last year, but who aver aged 8.77 yards gained with each oi nis passes. nauerman will nave the same targets that Graham used, mainly ends Dante Lavelll and Pete Brew ster. Other receivers could be Dub uones, Kay Renlro. Ken Konz and John Petitbon, all standout half backs. In addition, the Browns boasted fullback Maurice Bassett. fifth leading ground gainer in the Na tional League last year, and an experienced line both for oflense and defense. Against this combination. Lam beau was expected to start full back Alan Ameche of Wisconsin, ouartcrbaci: Ralph Gugiielmi of Notre Dame, and halfbacks Dick Moegle of Rice and Dave Middle ton of Auburn. The starting All Star line was to include ends Max Boydston of Oklahoma and Jim Temp of Wis consin, tackles Frank Varrichione of Notre Dame and Rosey Grier of Penn State, guards Tom Bettis of Purdue and Larry Morris of Georgia Tech and center Dick Szy manski of Notre Dame. However. Grier, Bettis, Morris, Temp and Middleton were expect ed to switch to defense once the game begins to put more effective offensive players into action. Prob ably L. G. Dupre of Rice will re place Middleton at halfback.
