THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 29, 1955 HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON page Nine . Vaults Victors in Series Ckener TIME OUT Casey Gambles With Lefties Against Bums Br LEO H. PETERSEN NEW YORK (UP) Cocky Ctsey Stengel, having gambled and won with his first southpaw starter, nominated a second one. Icy nerved Tommy Byme, to face the Brooklyn Dodgers today and put the New York Yankees two games up In the 1955 World Series. Dodger Manager Walt Alston countered with right-hander Billy Loes, who has proven Brooklyn's most consistent pitcher during World Series competition against the Yankees. Although no left-handed pitcher had gone the. route against the Dodgers and won during the regu lar National League season, Sten gel took a chance with left-hander Whltey Pord In the opener Wednesday and Ford was credit ed with the Yankees' -5 victory although right-hander Bob Orim mopped up in the ninth inning. Stengel doesn't feel his is press lne his luck with the left-handed Byrne today and neither do the NEW YORK (UP) Records set or tied thus far in the 1955 World Series between the New York Yankees and Brooklyn Dodgers: Most Series Games Won By One Team: New York Yankees, 12.

Byrne, at 35, has been "around the block." as the ballplayers say. He has pitched for the Chicago White Sox, Washington Senators and St. Louis Browns as well as for the Yankees and he isn't the kind who gets rattled In the clutch. "I got a lot of faith In him, Stengel insists. "He won 16 games for me this year and he didn't pick on any set-ups, either. He worked against the toughest olubs In the league and he showed -'em all he was boss. He's what I call a brave pitcher. That's the way he has been all his life. UNPREDICTABLE Many observers believed that the unpredictable Loes. who post ed only one victory after tne All Star game this year, could hold tie key to the Dodgers' series chances. If he stops the Yankees today, the Dodgers will square the series at one game and be in strong position when the series shifts to Ebbets Field for, three games starting Friday. Loes, who had a 10-4 record dur lne the season and completed only six games, raised Alston's hopes with two fine tune-up perform. ances toward the tail-end of the campaign. Loes beat the Yankees in a World Series game in 1959 and pitched well against them in the 1952 classic, only to lose be cause of a balk and a grounder which he claimed he "lost in the sun." . Stengel, who was the picture ol confidence before the series start- ed. saw nothing to dampen his spirits Wednesday although he ad mitted he would like to see Mickey Mantle back in the lineup. Mantle, hobbled by a pulled hamstring muscle in his right thigh, sat out Wednesday's game and wasn't very hopeful about seeing action in any of the future frays. "I felt worse today than I did yesterday," he said glumly, after Wednesday's contest. "I guess 1 tried to run too fast a little teo quickly." The Yankees didn't miss Mantle's bat too much in the open ing game of the series as first baseman Joe Collins hammered two homers to drive in three runs and left fielder Elston Howard, first Negro ever to win a job with the Yankees, knocked In twe runs with another homer. HOMERS Duke Snider and Carl Furillo each homered for Brooklyn, but unfortunately from the Dodgers' iewpoint, both blows came with ,the bases empty. Big Don Newcombe, the Dodg- $jral& mi r Durocher, Marion In Line For SL Position shakes Wednesday as the Yankees raked him for eight of their nine hits and shelled him from the mound after 5 1-3 innings. Jackie Robinson, who may be putting In his last season with Brooklyn, supplied the most elec trifying play of the game when he stole home in the eighth Inning as Yankee catcher Yogi Berra angrily protested plate umpire Bill Summers' "safe" decision and looked for a brief moment like he might even climb all over the veteran arbiter. Billy Martin, an old Dodner plague he tied a series' record against them with a total of 12 hits in 1953 took right up where he left off before entering service witn a triple and a single. Follow ing his sixth-inning triple, he tried to steal home with pinch hitter Ed Robinson at the plate but was i for 1956 will be either Leo Duro- inrown out. cher or Murty Marlon.

Durocher. who resigned as man ager of the Giants last Saturday, promptly signed as a talent con tact with National Broadcasting Co. An NBC spokesman revealed Wednesday, however, that the stu dio "would not stand in his way" If he decided he wished to return to baseball. It is known that Durocher has conferred with August (Oussle) Busch. nresldant of the Cardinals, and Cardinal General Manager Dick Mever since he left the Giants Sunday. Busch told Duro cher the Cards would like to have him as their manager. One thing Lane made clear In his negotiations with the Cardinals was that he was to have "full and complain say" in handling the per sonnel of the ball club If he took the job. Busch agreed that ' his bands would not be tied, l ane leans toward Durocher a. the man to replace Harry (The Hat) walker at the Cardinal helm but If Durocher makes good his determination to stay out of base ball and even he admits he might "change my mind" Marion is the man who Lane would like.

Even picked Fresno State to upset San Francls".o State. Of course these were somewhat offset by the Oregon State victory over Stanford and Maryland's win over UCLA. Our selection depart ment has agreed there will be no more llukes like that. This week: USC over Texas: Some experts claim the Trojans "can be had." But don t think Texas is tne cluo to do it. Jess Hill again has the horses. Now if they only will run in the right direction, the Trojans by ID. UCLA over Washington state.

Stanford over onio state Tne upset of the week for the national TV viewers. Buckeyes nsd trou ble last week with the weak Ne braska team, while Stanlord was upset. But this Indian team has the makings of a pretty fair club. By seven. California over Pennsylvania: Oolden Benrs, with young team are improving. Perm hasn't had it so good, either, losing last week to Virginia Poly, cal by six. Washington over Oregon: it may be that Coach Johnny Cherberg has come up with something.

Caro line, who won Ail-American honors at the University of Illinois two years ago, stepped in at tne rigni halfback spot for Ihe Montreal Alouettes ot the Big Pour Football Union today. Tim soeeriv back signed a Mont real contraot Wednesday and It was believed he agreed to take considerably less than the S16.000 once promised him by the Toronto Argonauts. Caroline was released by the Araonauta last week, allegedly be cause his abilities didn't measure up to his high price tag. The Aloit ettes took him on after the Ottawa Tiger-Cits both waived on htm. Mountaineers from Eastern Oregon College of Education at La Orande kickoff the Oregon collegiate con ference football race this Saturday evening on the Modoc Field turf. The grid encounter for the Owls will be their first step toward defending the co championship earned last season when the Mile High Campus club finished in a dcad-heal with the strong Oregon College of Education Wolves. Head Coach Rex Hunsaker sent Ms chargers through regular drills this week as he prepared for another tough battle from the Owls' OCC opponents, who are definitely stronger this year than they were last season in dropping a lopsided 45-6 tilt to the locals. So far this year, both clubs have found the going rough. The Owls faltered In their only game by dropping a 33-7 fray to the semi-pro Seattle Ramblers, while I EOCE has been derailed twice, once by Westminster of Utah and 1 last week by Yakima Junior Col I lege. I A'though completely outclassed, j and somewhat bewildered by the gridiron Sivy of the Seattle Ram i biers last week. The Owls held more than their own as far as Hunsaker and his coach staff were concerned. Especially pleasing was the showing ol freshman end Al Van Leuven from North Bend and vet eran guard Olen Ragan in the line. Barks Willie Stinson, cal "sugar Jot" Smith, Bill Faireli and Don Stonehill all looked promising for he season's first outing, and against the experienced power house of the nation's semi-pros. Expected to be back in top shape this weekend is letterman quarter back Dave Thomas who sat out last week's opener against the) Ramblers because of a, leg In-, Jury. Hunsaker said early this week that Dave will probably be ready to go against Uio Mountles. I attle came with minor aches and pains but all are expected to be in lirsti'Uss condition by game time Saturday evening. EOCE's coaching staff ia led by Archie Dunsmoor who is in his lirst season as head man on the Eastern Oregon football scene. As sisting him is Dr. W. , Douglas Spear. The turnout for the Mountles tnis season numbered approximately 35. of which 15 were returning let- termen. Quarterbacks Jerry Bns tow. Arlen 6milh and Mel Victor, halibacks Dick Qutnn and Terry Zleenhagen. and fullbacks Rich ard Sherrell and Lowell Kolbaba lead the list of experienced loot bailers that greeted Dunsmoor. Another added surprise package was on hand when Eastern Ore gon's football picture began to take shape, the presence of Bit Bill West. A two-vear Oregon Slate football letterman, West returned from service with Uncle Sam and enrolled at EOCE instead of Ore gon State for his final two sea sons of education and football ac tivities. West is a former La Orande High School athletic star. Another larne turnout of football fans from all parts of the Basin ia expected this Saturday nigin for the OTI-EOCE grid fracas. Last Saturday's opener drew ap proximately 2.000 people, the larg est number ever to aitcna an uit gon Tech home game. Hunsaker said he was not only pleased with ihe player's performances, but was glad to see the support of the "towns-people" behind the Tech squad. NOTICE!
