Indians' Herb Score

KFW YORK (UP i The Cleve- selle of the Giants was the last
rookie to turn the trick in 1944.
The others who did it were Nr.

land Indians started the season
tabbing Herb Score as the rookie
of the year and may wind up
hailing him as the guy who pitched
'em into the 'World Series.
. For the brilliant 22-year-old lire
baller has taken over in the heat
of the American League stretch
run as the ace of the Cleveland
staff. Bob Lemon, Early Wynn and
Mike Garcia the one-time "big
three' of the Indians staff all
hae faltered and left it to "the
kid" to do a man's Job.
And what a Job he's been doing!
In the last three weeks, he's reeled
off four straight triumphs while
Lemon, Wynn and Garcia' have
managed to produce one each. He
Ftarted the string with a one-hit
' masterpiece against Baltimore and
followed with two wins over De
troit and one over Kansas City.
HISTORY
His last triumph over the Tigers
lifted his season's mark to 13-9, and
13 strikeouts increased his total to
19?. If he maintains nis current
lead over New York's Bob Turlev,
Score will become the seventh
rookie in modern baseball history
to lead his league in strikeouts.

Lettermen
Editor'! Note: This Is the third
In a series on the prospects of
Pacific oast Conference iootball
teams for the 1955 season.
EUGENE, Ore. (UP) The Ore
gon Weofoots stripped of mighty
George Shaw and 13 other letter
men, will field a green team tnis
year that may be short on vic
tories' but definitely long on speed.
In fact, Coach Len Casanova
thinks his 1955 squad may pad;
more velocity than last year's con
tingent which finished third in the
PCC standings.
However. Cas doesn't harbor any
illusions about moving that far up
the ladder again. Too many other
clutch performers departed with
Shaw such as right guard Jack
Patera, left end Hal Reeve, right
halfback Walt Gafiney and right
tackle Keith Tucker.
A major weakness is lack of a
good passer, something new to a
team which has sported the likes
ot Shaw and Norm Van Brocklin.
However, there is solidity among
the 14 returning lettermen. Halt
back Dick James, a ileet runner
who was ninih among the national
srnrers in 1954. is back, as are end
Phil Mcliugh and tackle Lon Stin
er Jr.
I tl.ink these three boys will do
a pieliv good job. Casanova says,

More speed is at fullback where
sopnoniore Jack Morris is expect
ed to move in after four years in
iho service. Morris is a good kick
er and has gone over the 220
yard low hurdles in 23.3.
Tom Crabtree. a former half

In addition, Score soon will be
come one ol the lew rookies in
history to record 200 strikeouts and
the first big leaguer to do it since
1946. when Bob Feller set the mod
ern standard of 348 and Hal New
houser struck out 275 batters. Rec
ords on such matters are incom
plete but this writer had to go all
the way back to Grover Cleveland
Alexander, who struck out 227 in
1911, to find a rookie who fanned
200. '
GLITTERING
Rut ol more importance to the
Indians than such glittering statis
tics is the fact that Score has ta
ken up the slack for the fading
"big three" who were the keys to
Cleveland's 111 - victory campaign
in 1954.
The "big three" combined last
year for a 65-26 record. Lemon
and Wynn winning 23 games eacn
and Garcia winning 19. This year
they stand 35-27 with Lemon 13
8, Wynn 14-8 and Garcia 8-11.
Obviously, the Indians couldn't
possibly have stayed in the race
without pitching help and it's been
Score in the starting rotation and
Ray Narleski in relief who have
given it to them.
"There was never any doubt in
my mind that Score would win in
the big leagues," Manager Al Lo
pez commented recently. "But, I
certainly didn't expect him to have
to do such an important job for
us. I was hoping he would break
in rather easily.
"Still." Lopez concluded, 'I
can't even say I'm surprised Score
has done the Job under such pres
sure. He's just a kid with all the
stuff both temperamentally and
physically."

Palmer turned pro after his big

Washington State eleven, loaded
with veteran lettermen, looks for
one of Its best seasons In years
and Coach Al Kircher thinks his
Cougars may finish among the top
three in the PCC standings.
If they don't, another long vic
tory drought Is in sight beside the
banks of the Palousc.
The Cougars, as usual, have to
lisk burying their season right off
the bat by opening against Southern
California in Los Angeles, and play
UCLA in the third game of their
schedule. -Yet
Kircher rates the 1055 slate
as much easier than last year's
which saw the Cougars finish up
with a 4-6 record and in a two-way
tie for filth in the conference. Such
brutal Intersectional foes as Texas

Most mizzled looking young man
we've seen lately had Just relumed
from an extensive interview with
Archie Moore and wished earnestly
tn know whether he could rely on
everything the heavyweight chal
lenger had said to mm. it noi
everything, than about what about
what percentage?
He was advised mat. tne ruie oi

Washington Redskins, completed 10
of 19 passes tor 129 yards In a 90-27
upset of the defending National
Football League champions.
But It was like old times Satur
day night when the Browns rods
over the Green Bay Packers, 13-7,
on the strength of two field goals
by Groza and a brilliant last-ditch,
goal line sta'nd.
FIIXD GOALS
After spotting the Packers a
touchdown in the opening period,
the Browns tallied their only touch
down In the second quarter and
Groza added a pair of field goals,
one in the second and the other in
the third to close out the scoring.
But quarterback Tobin Rote, pas
sing and running, helped move the
Greens for a first down with two
minutes remaining in the game.
The Packers, however, were stop
ped on the third and fourth downs
with only a yard to go for a first
down on the three as the Browns'
forward wall held.
The goal line stand was like the
one the Browns staged against the
Philadelphia Eagles late last sea
son at Cleveland in eking out a 6-0
victory in what proved to be the
turning point of the 1954 cam
paign In the Eastern Division.
With three minutes to play the
Browns stopped the Eagles after'
Philadelphia had driven to a first
down on the Cleveland one yard
line. Groza scored tile six points
on a pair of field goals in that
one.
The New York Giants and the
Chicago Cardinals earned the sup
posedly weaker Eastern Division a
clean sweep In other NFL weekend
exhibition games.
BOTTLED UP
The Giants bottled up the San
Francisco Forty Niners' running
game and swept to four touchdowns
themselves In a 28-17 victory oe
fore 49.000 fans in Seattle, Wash.,
while the Cardinals downed the
Chicago Bears, 21-6, before 20,000
fans In the Gator Bowl in Jackson
ville, Fla.
Quarterback Don Heinrich, who
gained national prominence with
tho University of Washington while ,
playing on the same field, passed
for one touendown a oeyarucr u
end Ken McAfee and completed
12 of 25 tosses in all for 178 yards.
Bobby Epps and Alex Webster,
who starred in Canada's Big Four
Union last year, accounted lor uie
other touchdowns, Webster scoring
two of them.
The nasslns of Lamar McHan
nnri the running of Johnny Olszew
ski and Ollle Matson paced the Car
dinals to their upset win over uie
Bears. George Blanda accounted
for all the Bears' point wito two
field goals.
The first major league player to
be drafted Into the Army during
