MONDAY, NOVEMBER 7. 1955 HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAUE t.EVfcN OSC, Cal Ivlay Clash Over Top Boivl Position By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Two month! ago the mid-November date between Oregon State and California figured to be only en other football game in the Pacific Coast Conference, but Monday it added up to the top clash on the Saturday West Coast menu. The boisterous Beavers, riding high in the Rose Bowl race, are in undisputed possession of second place in PCO standings. And Cali fornia, kicked around by every body, looms suddenly as a pos sible spoiler with the sudden discov ery of a twin touchdown punch. The year-long upset wave rolled Wither than usual throughout the conference last Saturday to pro duce the unique situation in tne standings. Two favorites toppled in the ton- sy-turvey derby ana tne cniei victim, was proud Southern Cali fornia. The Trojans, who figured n vear to decide the champion. ship in their Nov. 19 clash with UCLA, tfere dumped unceremonl. iously by Stanford, 28-20. as the up-and-down Indians reached the npnk. Dropped also was Washington, victim of Cal's tiny Donn Smith id Nat Braslll, 20-6. The Huskies, once the conference darkhorse, have failed to win a game since their upset of USC five weeks ago. The rest of last week's alate ran nff on schedule. Oregon Bute rucked uo a 33-14 win over Idaho, Oregon belted Washington State, 36-0, and UCLA clobbered College of the Pacific, 34-0, to become the nation's too scoring team. Only two other PCC games, In Addition to the Oregon State-Cali fornia clash at Berkeley, are on this week's program. Washington trav AAA Drops Sponsorship Of Championship Car Racing By CHARLES MAHER PHOENIX, Aril. UV-Two great auto racing .careers have ceme to an end. one in death and one In disillusionment.

Southern Cal, perhaps fortunately, draws an open date. Cal's toppling of Washington was the surprise of the week. The Bears, completely clawless in the past, discovered midget half backs Smith and Brailll behind a pile of equipment bags and the two ran the Huskies ragged. The pair together weigh 319 pounds Smith 143, BrasiU 143 only a smidgeon less than Husky tackle Fred Robinson, but they had the moxie to get the business done for the Bears' initial PCC win. John Brodie was the big man in Stanford's triumph. The 188 pound quarter-back passed the Trojans silly with 14 completions for 316 yards. The triumph was the Indians' first In conference play and eliminated USC complete' ly from the championship race. UCLA turned loose three tall- backs Sam Brown, Ronnie Knox and Gerry McDougall to wreck COP's vaulted line and roll up its easy victory. The Bruins now need only to beat Washington and USC to repeat as PCO champs and move Into the Rose Bowl. One loss, though, could ruin the Bruins. They play only six con. ference games to Oregon State's seven and Beaver triumphs in" their remaining two tilts could give them the gonfalon If UCLA stum bles. The second career closed yester day when the American Automo bile Assn. ended its sponsorship of championship racing after 46 years. The AAA had announced earlier It would quit, saying racing has been placing Increasing em pnasis on speea, power ana ariver endurance and that these objectives are not In line with the AAA's safety program.

McOrath's accident was the only one that produced injury. his car sprang into tne air ano bounded down the track - after striking a heavy shoulder on turn about three-quarters of the way through the 86th mile. He was ru.uiing tnira. witnesses saia nil light front axle folded. The tragedy occurred with Mc- Orath only 14 laps away from the end of his dirt track career. He had said the Bobby Ball would be his last dirt track race and that he was going to quit racing to enter business next January, with the stipulation that he would drive in the 1956 Indianapolis (OO-miler. McOrath started his racing ca reer in 1948 at Bonneville Flats, Utah, driving hot rods. He shifted to midgets, then graduated to championship racing. He trailed only Tony Bettenhausen of Tlnley Park, 111., and Sam Hanks of Bur bank. Calif., in the post-war AAA standing compiled from 1946 through this year.

The withdrawal of Fall River will leave only four teams partici pating, Yreka, Weed. Mount Shasta and Dunsmulr. Coach Peckham explained that "the general concensus seems to be that we have no business in the Siskiyou County league until ve get on our feet aa far as foot ball is concerned ... We want to play these teams' when we're able to. at leaat give them a good game. We won't quit football, but we don't want to be a stepping stone for other more powerful teams to score at will." He said that Fall River, which competes In the Siskiyou league in football only, will schedule some of the league teams next year, omitting the atrooit Yreka and Weed teams. las mentioned Mount Shasta and Dunsmuir, both In the league and Tulelake with a home-and-home arrangement, Alturas, Trinity, Cential Valley and Susan- vale as possible opponents. In basketball, baseball and track, Fall River teams compete in the Modoc-Lassen League. Peck ham said that there was also the possibility that the Bulldogs might form a separate league with Tule lake and Alturas. The Bulldogs are winless so far this year. Last year they defeated Mount Shasta 7-6, and gave Dunsmulr and Yreka close battles. Fall River has been a member of the Siskiyou league 7 years.

IT'S POOLE'S rort SHOT GUN SHELLS 222 Se. 7th Phono 7711 fjti'alb art Mike Higgins Named AL Manager Of Year By CARL LlINDQllST NEW YORK (UP) Mike Higcins who brought about a 30-game im provement in the Boston Red Sox last season and kept them in pen nant contention until the final two weeks of the season, was selected today as' American League "Man ager of the Year" in a United Press poll. in a wide open contest in Denot ing by 56 baseball writers from the eight league cities, Higgins won out by two votes over Marty Marlon of the Chicago White Sox. Higgins received 17 votes and Marlon 15. Casey Stengel, who brouRht the Yankees their fifth pennant in the aix seasons he hns been manager, finished third wun 11 votes, while Lou Boudreau of the improved Athletics at Kansas City drew 10. Al Lopes of the runner- up Cleveland Indians received two votes and Bucky Harris of the De troit Tigers drew one. NUMEROUS PLAGUES Higgins, operating under a sue cession of complications in his first season as a big league boss, did not elevate Boston in the stand ings, as It also finished fourth In 1954. But this time the Red Sox finish ed only 12 games out whereas in the previous season they were M games behind, t When Higgins, a quiet Texan from Dallas, succeeded Boudreau he sized up the club and said. Well, there's room for Improve ment." As It turned out that was Casey Going Overboard On Japanese Tour With Club By OSCAR FRALEY United Press Sports Writer NEW YORK (UP) This tour by Casey Stengel-and his second-best New York Yankees has become a Churchill Downs chuckle. In other words, a horse laugh. Old Case, the left-handed dentist from Kansas City, purportedly has asserted that "it s a shame no Ja panese ball player Is on a major league team in the United States." From the results of those games. It would be an Oriental shame if they were. The second-best Yan kees, as we know them In Flat bush, at the moment this is writ ten have played eight games with the Samurai sluggers. The Yanks have won seven. The eighth was called at 1 to 1. television 10-rounder in St. Nicho las Arena. It's a return bout. Oiovanelli oi Brooklyn stopped Perez of New York In the sixth round because ol gashed brow on March 3, 1953. That's the only kayo against Dan ny Jo In his 22 fights. Each is 23 years old. . - Last Monday. Oiovanelli won a unanimous decision over Paolo Me tis of Montreal at St. Nlckx. He suffered no cuts and was sble to accept the Invitation to substitute for Chlco Vejar against Perez, ve Jar suffered a split lip in framing. Glovanelll is fnvored not only be cauae of his 1953 victory over Dan ny Joe, but because he was im pressive against Melis last week and because nard-luck Danny Jo hasn't registered a vlotory in his last four bouts, although he naa one draw. Perez was outpointed by light weight contender Kenny Lane on Dec, 13. This year he waa held to a draw by Orlando Zultieta, and outpointed by lightweight contend er Frankle Ryft and by Gene Poirler, July. 25. He weighed 147 pounds for Poirler. Oloanclll fought as a middle weight In the first three of his (out flints this year. He knocked out Jimmy Martinez (5), outpointed Chris Chrtstensen and lost to Ray Drake. Then he returned to the welterweight ranks and beat Mells last Monday. He weighed 150', for Mells. His 27-5-1 record Includes 13 knock outs. He was stopped once. Perez' 16-3-1 list includes only four kayoes. The winner of tonight's bout j probably will be matched with ! Chico Vejar at St. Nick's on Nov. i 31.

Wa Giva Z-T GREEN STAMPS SMITH AUTO SUPPLY 919 Klamath u mm m CLAYTON HANHON SPORTS EDITOR the understatement of the year. This Is what the former 1 star third baseman had to contend with. Ted Williams, who reneged on his vow to retire, came back and had a great year but because of personal metiers he could not join the club and get Into the lineup until May 38. and then naa to oper ate at half speed until he rounded into condition. LOST BOLL1NG In spring training young short stop star Milt Boiling auffered a crippling injury and Higgins had to install a castoff from the Giant minor league system Into the post. But the youngster, Billy Klaus, de veloped into a dependable per former. Likewise Grady Hatton, who had been cast adrift by Cin cinnati, was stuck into the lineup at third and came through well enough, Higgins switched his fielding star, Jimmy PlersahV from right field to center and moved Jackie Jensen to right and the improve ment defensively was notable. Higgins, who engendered a spirit of relaxed confidence in his play ers, kept insisting all along that the Red Sox "have as good a chance as anybody else." And it was only when their lack of bench strength manifested Itself that they dropped out of the pennant chase. Considering all of the complica tions, the consensus waa that Hig gins got more out of less than any other manager. Nor, as anyone who cut his eye- teelh with the Durham Bulls can tell you, are the Yankees giving it all they've got. Nor even, it might be added, all that tne uurnam Bulls have got. Old Case, a smart business man with a few million dollars worth of oil wells, real estate, backyard swimming pools, etc., announced with unusual pomposity beiore the ball club winged westward to the East that this team "will play like the Yankees or i ll know the rea son why." Well, you can't fault old Case. They're playing "like" the Yan kees. In other words, they're win ning games. But they're a long drive and a chip shot from being tho Yankees. " Just before (he Japanese tour be gan, Andy Carey took a movie starlet to wife, and plumb in the midst of the sukl-yakl shennanl gans Uie one and only Mickey Mantle, so labeled by the Yankees. took leave to wing home to the side of his expectant wife. Well, it mekes a nice honeymoon and a fine vacation, which the Mick should have had, anyhow. Baseball, long 'guilty of a holier- than-thou attitude, should knock off sclllngr the inhabitants a "enow Job" when it brings the game to foreign shores. Actually, this is strictly a goodwill tour. The Yankees give me a laugh when they give out with this rou tine about "playing their greatest" and that "Japanese players are real front-line contenders." Not that now, or eventually, the Japanese don't or won't have some players capable of playing major league ball. There's no valid rea son why they shouldn't. This is not meant as a diatribe against the Japanese ball players Actually, only one Japanese ball player, Wally Yonamine, who play ed In a Western Class A league, could be considered a bona fide big league prospect. There are doubts among big league observ ers that even he could make It, al though he can go get them In the outfield and has more power at the plate lhan the average Nippon out fielder. So let's keep this In the proper perspective. The Japanese love the game, you can be sure, but they are far up the stretch when It comes to big league baseball. The Yankee sweep proves that much. - Dugan and Mtst say: Tho factory hoi delivered ui too many now pickups. Thoto must ae! Tako advantage of this fromendoui over supply . . .
