Hopes For
6th Place
; - HARVEY, 111. (UP) Lou BOU-t-
drcau figures his Kansas City
Athletics are the best "second di
i vision" club in the American
' '- League, but he has little hopes of
linishing higher than sixth again
' in 1956.
"Let's fac It," Boudreau said.
7 "This league has five first divl
sion clubs and three in the second
k division. I think we're the dark
Ahorse team in the second divl
" sion, but I don't see how we can
,;pass any of last year's top five
a New ' York, Cleveland, Chicago,
'"'Boston and Detroit).
"I think we'll have a first dtvl
'"rsion ball club in two or three
1 years, but our goal will be sixth
n again In 1956."
" WEAKEST SPOT
"i "We'll be stronger if we can lm
' prove our pitching, by far our
"r weakest spot last year. President
,f Arnold Johnson has been working
r hard and we've purchased a lot
""of boys I think will help."
r;: Boudreau said the A's would
?have 21 to 22 pitchers in spring
training. .......
"; Best bets to stick, he thought,
'""Vera Lou Kretlow, who once "had
it" in the majors.
"" "Lou had a real good season
"last year on the Pacific Coast,"
" Boudreau said, "and I hope he's
' ready to go again in the majors."
"Then we've got Jack Crimian,
Toronto's best pitcher last year,
1 and Glenn Cox from Montreal,
'Boudreau said. "Either one could
'make it. .
' "Bobby Shantz, of course. Is
our biggest hope. He had another
checkup at Johns Hopkins Hospi
,; tal and his left arm was pro
"hounced as sound as it was in
. 1,!1952, when he won 24 and lost 7.
Shantz and Arnold Portocarrero
Were the two big "Us". If Porto
1 'carrero doesn't have arm trouble,
' and Shantz can take his regular
' turn, "we could surprise a lot of
' people," Boudreau said.
' NO DEALS
! The other regulars Boudreau is
"'counting on are Art Ditmar, Han
't sas City's No. 1 pitcher last year,
"Alex Kellner and Tom Gorman,
lithe relief specialist who finished
' r. strong In '55.
' Is "We'd still like to pick up an
established pitcher before the sea
tsSn begins." Boudreau said, 'but
:i;-e haven't got any deal brewing
iright now. We talked with Chuck
r Comiskey of the White Sox for a
long time, but that fell through.
! On the plus side, Boudreau has

To Contracts
By United Press
Tommy Byme, who discovered
a "new pitch" the strike at
the age of 36, and 23-year old
Roger Craig signed 1956 contracts
today as the champion New York
Yankees and Brooklyn Dodgers
stepped up their winter activities.
Byrne was the second Yankee to
agree to terms while Craig and
rookies Don Elston and Chuck
Templeton, who also signed, in
creased the list of satisfied Dodg
ers to an even dozen.
In Detroit, meanwhile, pitcher
Ned Oarver strolled into the Ti
gers' offices and came to terms
a few minutes after office person
nel dug his contract out of a stack
that had been prepared for the
mails.
Byrne, one-time "wild man" of
the American League, led the cir
cuit in percentage with a 16-5 rec
ord last season and was one of the
key players In the Yankees' pennant-winning
campaign.
Byrne will be honored for the
"comeback of the year" Sunday
night by the Chicago chapter of
the Baseball Writers' Association
of America and on Monday night
will be in Baltimore to be honored
by the Baltimore Professional
Baseball Players' Assn.
Some 12 years ago Byrne Joined
the Yankees as a tremendous
"stuff pitcher" but was too wild
to win consistently. He hung on
with the Yankees, drifted back to
the minors and then returned last
year with the old speed and
sharp-breaking curves gone but
blessed, for the first time in his
life, with control.
Byrne beat the Dodsrers in the
second game of the World Series
but lost the decisive game to John
ny Podres' 2-0 shutout.
Craig, brought up to the Dodgers
In mid-season when the key mem
bers of Manager Walt Alston's
staff were hobbled with arm ail
ments, compiled a 6-3 regular-sta-son
record and then beat the Yank
ees. 5-3, in the fifth game of the
series.

British Honduras, shrugged off a
cut inside his left eyelid Friday
night and went on to win a split
decision from Joey Lopes of Sacra

Lightburn. ranked seventh,
weighed 1?9"4 for his 10-round na
tionally televised bout against the
lOth-ranklng man In his division.
Lones weighed 137'.i. '
Still bouncy after the fight. Light
burn said his best blows landed
on Lopes' body. Lopes, sucking
on a chunk of ice in his dressing
room, thought the winner did the
most damage with a right upnercut
to the chin.
Both Lopes and Lighlburn agreed
the loser's best was a second
round right to the head. "He
caught me with a good one," said
Lightburn.
Judge Toby Irwin scored It 58-52
and Judge Eddie James 56-54. both
for Lightburn. Referee Jack Silver
had it WrH't for Lopes.
Lightburn slipped to one knee
during the second-round and was
pushed down by Silver when the
referee broke up a burst of blows
after the eighth-round bell.
Both men had trouble seeing out
of their left eyes at the end. Light
burn said his cut came from a
butting in the fifth. Lopes started
showing a mouse in the fifth and
had a cut under it later.

Comisky Talking
Deals With Nats
CHICAGO I Chuck Comis
key. vice president of the Chicago
White Sox. says he and Cal Grif
fith, president of the Washington
Senators, have talked about a pos
sible deal but nothing developed.
"Cal and I talked for a long
time," said Comiskey Friday,
"and it boils down to this. They
want a left-handed-hitting outfield
er and we want a pitcher."
"I told him we had Jim Rivera
and Cal Abrams." continued Co
miskey, "and he was interested in
Rivera. I don't blame him for be
ing Interested In Rivera but I told
him he'd have to start talking
about front line players If he want
ed Rivera." ,
Comiskey said Griffith told him
he'd have to talk to Manager
Cbvc!: Dresseo first and then con
tinue hi conferences with the New
York Yankees.

then connected with a layin to
give Oregon a 63-59 lead.
Duane Asplund almost pulled the
game out of the fire for the Bears.
He tipped in a field goal and was
fouled while scoring. He made the
free throw and the score went to
63-63 Oregon.
The Ducks tried to freeze the
ball with nine seconds remaining
in the game but Asplund was
fouled In the process. California
lost the game when both of Asp
lund's free throw attempts missed.
Earl Robinson of Cal topped the
scorers with 27 points.
Southern California found the
early going easy against the OSC
Beavers and left the floor at the
half in possession of a 32-25 lead.
Oregon Stage threatened at the
start of the second half and
trimmed the Trojan lead. The Tro
jans regained their composure in
the final stages of the game, how
ever, and were in complete com
mand at the final buzzer.
Southern California's Jack Lov
rlch was the game's high scorer
with 19 points.
Saturday's schedule called for the
same pairing, with all but the
Southern Cal-Oregon State game
night affairs. The latter will be
an afternoon, televised affair.
L Doby
ChiSox1
Flag Key
ST. LOUIS. Mo. (UP) Marty
Marlon, whose Chicago White Sox
finished behind New York and
Cleveland In the 1955 American
League pennant race, believes
Larry Doby will be the key man
for his club this year.
Marion blamed a lack of long
ball power for the Sox' failure to
go all the way last season and ex
pected Doby to supply the punch
they needed so much.
"There's a lot more to It than
the runs he can drive in," Marlon
said. "Doby In the lineup gives
us a much better balanced ball
club. Last year we weren't much
of a threat from the left side but
Doby and Minnie Minoso will sup
ply a real one-two punch, from
the left and right.
"Besides," he went on, "If you
have a man like Doby coming up
with men on the bases it's likely
to change the strategy of the op
position. The Intentional pass can
sometimes break up the game."
CONFIDENCE
Marty, who had to give up his
shortstop. Chico Carrasquel, and
Jim Busby to obtain Doby from
the Cleveland Indians, professed
confidence that rookie Louie Apa-
riclo could plug the gap at short.
"He's got great Daseoau in
stinct," Marlon said. "He can
run and has a fine arm. As tar
as his hittlng's concerned, how
much Is enough? If he comes
through defensively as I think he
will, a low average wouldn't han
dicap him. But he has hit well
wherever he's played and his
managers were all high on him
as a batter."
The way Marlon sees his open
ing lineup, it will be Walt Dropo
at first, Nellie Fox at second.
Aparlcio at short, George Koll at
third, Sherm Lollar catching, and
Minoso, Doby and Jim Rivera In
the outfield.
"Like any other manager, I
consider pitching my biggest
problem,' Marlon said. "My three
mainstays are Billy Pierce, Dick
Donovan and Jack Harshman, and
I'll have to find a couple of other
starters from a group that in-
eludes Harry Byrd, Connie jonn-
son, Sandy Consuegra, Mike For-
neieles and Dixie Howe."
Present plans, according to Ma
rlon, call for bullpen work for Joe
Dahlke, who was a sensational re
lief pitcher for Memphis last year.
Earl Battey, from Charleston.
SC., will understudy Lollar, who
wearied somewhat in the stretch
last vear on a steady diet of work.
RESERVES
"We'll be stronger In reserves
this year with men like Jack
Phillips, Bob Nieman, Cal Abrams
and Bob Kennedy on the bench,"
Marion aald. "I'm a lot more
anxious for this season to start
than il was for last year's. Nat
urally, It's alwaya a gamble. You
have to hope that the help you
had last year from unexpected
quarters will be there again and
you hope that some of the boys,
like Minoso, will return to top
form."
After putting the "always
tough" tag on clubs like Boston
and Detroit, Marion singled out
the Yankees as the No. 1 enemy
once more.
"They're the champs." ne saia,
"you can't win unless you can
knock them off."
But how about the Indians? Aft
er all, they beat you out of second
place, didn't they?
Marlon smiled.
"We could beat Cleveland when
we could stop Doby," he said.
"We don't have to get him out
now. He's on our side."

Forsees Ski
Jumping Win
LAKE PLACID. N Y. Iffl The
United States Olympic ski Jump
ing team broke camp Saturday
and Coach Olav Ulland hurled a
bold challenge at the rest of the
world. .
"No one Is going to Jump farther
than our boys," he said as the
team set out on the first leg of
Its Journey to Cortina d'Ampezza,
Italy, where the games start Jan.
26. "They are strong and have the
spirit. If we get beaten It won't
be because we can't make the dis
tance." Ulland, a 45-year-old Seattle
sporting goods dealer who was a
member of the famed Kongsberg
Ski Club of Norway that dominated
International Jumping for two dec
ades, cautioned, however, that the
American team does have prob
lems. "The Judges score about 60 per
cent on distance and 50 per cent
on form" he pointed out. "The
European Judges are very tough
on landings and really penalize
you If you re below par.
"That scares me Just a little be
cause in the United States the
judges are lenient on landings and
as a result the boys don't concen
trate on them."
Ulland would like to hide his
optimism, but he enn't.
"It would be silly for me to
make any prediction on the out
come" he said, "but I'm sure we'll
surprise a lot ot people. Walt till
those Europeans get a load of Art
Devlin if he keeps up his present
form."
In addition to (he 33-year-old
Devlin, the greybeard of this
youngest team ever to represent
the United States, the team In
cludes 19-year-old Rudy Makl, Ish
pemlng. Mich.; Dick Rnhol, 19,
from Iron Mountain, Mich.; Rag
nar Ulland, 18, the coach's nephew,
from Seattle; Roy Sherwood, 22,
the 1954 national champion from
Salisbury, Conn.; and Billy Olson,
25. of Eau Claire, Wis.
For the record, the highest an
American ever hns finished in the
Olympics was fifth. Casper Olmocn
did It in '32 and Golden Wren in
46.
Snow Tumble
Breaks Neck
Of U.S. Star
KITZBUEHEL, Austria, HI
Catherine (Katy) Rodolph, U. S.
Olympic skiing slar from Reno,
Nev.. suffered a broken "second
vertebrae" in her neck in the In
ternational Hahnenkamm Tourna
ment Saturday.
Dr. Frederlch Pfahl, who made
the examination, said the girl's
condition was "critical." He or
dered her rushed to Salzburg by
Red Cross ambulance for treat
ment. There was a series of conflicting
reports after the 23-year-old brun
nette fell on the treacherous
"Ganslern" stretch In the women's
downhill race.
At first It was reported by the
Austrian Army Miss Rodolph had
suffered a broken leg and a pos
sible back injury. Later a physi
cian who examined her at the hos
pital here said she had suffered
only a slight concussion and would
be all right after a few days' rest,
Doctor Pfahl's rpport was made
after a subsequent examination.
Miss Rodolph figured prominent
ly In the news In the 1952 Olympics
at Oslo when she was linked ro
mantically with Slein Erikson, Nor
wegian skiing ace.
Later Miss Rodolph announced
she was secretly married to Paul
Wegeman. a member of the U.S.
Olympic skiing team, and denied
any romance with Erikson.
However. In 1063 she divorced
Wegeman and there were rumors
she would marry Erlskson. now a
professional instructor in the
United States.

Fraley's Facts and Figures:
The NCAA obviously Is deter
mined to kill off all basketball op
position and It has taken two ques
tionable steps closer to Its hoped
for monopoly.
First it scheduled a small col
lege tournament in competition to
the long - established NAIA tour
nament at Kansas City, which has
been operating 15 years.
It also Ignored -a lot of otlier
conference winners and balloted
an automatic tournament berth to
the winner of the rag-tag Calif
ornia Basketball Association. The
Reason: To be sure that red-hot
San Francisco would be In the
NCAA this year even If the or
ganization is stuck In the future.
BALD-FACED
'Trying to run the NIT out of
business, which may be upheld on
the grounds that It Is a Madison
Square Garden profit making
scheme, the NCAA previously
ruled that a team may not play in
more than one post-season tourna
ment. But picking on the long es
tablished and well-operated NAIA
and making a bald-faced bid for
San Francisco smacks of power
politics.
A yearling filly training at Hla
leah Park has one of the better
names of the turf year. She Is Red
Rldinghood, out of a marc named
Wolf Bait . . . and If she doesn't

RETAIN
Oklahoma A & M is favored to
retain the NCAA wrestling cham
pionship this year with the Eastern
Intercollegiate wide open among
Pitt, Penn Slate, Lehigh and dark
horse Syracuse . . . and If you
think things are tough on the mat,
you're right. Lehigh Coach Gerry
Leeman still wears the wrestling
shoes he used In the 1948 Olympics.
At long last, Jesse James has
been robbed.
That's the name of a Birming
ham guard, who played 24 Inter
national matches for England, who
has been dropped from the squad
for the first International basket
ball match with Spain Feb. 7.
Where the original Jesse made
light with other people's pounds,
this Jesse is too heavy on his own.

For Top Boat ClassK
By JACK HEWINS
Associated Press Sporta Writer
SEATTLE OB The City Of
Seattle nearly drowned In Its own
tears when It lost the Gold Cup
speedboat race last summer but
Its eyes are bright and clear again
and flashing a $25.00) sparkle.
That's the purse which has been
set up to lure the "unllmlteds"
back to Seattle next August 6 to
compete for the Seafalr Trophy.
"Maybe It's a good thing we lost
the Gold Cup," saya Jerry Bryant,
new president of Greater Seattle,
Inc. "It tests our ability to estab
lish a race of our own."

Grid Rule
Changes
Said Few
LONG BEACH, Calif. IA-College
football fans won't have to digest
a new rule book to understand the
game In 1956.
The National Collegiate Athletic
Assn. Rules Committee gave some
66 suggestions a thorough study
and decided there wasn't much to
revise.
Chairman Frits Crlsler said that
aside from a few technical mat
ters, the 1956 rules session was
the leanest for changes in the 50-
year history of the organization.
Here. In brief, is what the com
mittee did:
The clock on free klckoffs will
not start until the ball has touched
the opponent team. Instead of
starting at the moment of the kick.
This will give the receiving team
valuable time to put the ball back
In play, especially in the waning
momenta of a game.
Users of light fabrlo tear-away
jerseys, which are a boon to break
away runners, will pay for the
privilege. Hereafter, timeout to re
place will be charged to the team,
not the officials.
Only when a piece of equipment
Is damaged to the extent that It
might injure the opposing team
i.e., a dislocated shoulder pad, or
an exposed cleat post, will the
time out be charged to the officials.
Makers and proponents of the
rubber football gained an im
portant decision. If a coach wants
to use the rubber ball on offense,
he may. Heretofore, there had to
be mutual agreement between the
rival coaches for the ball to bs
used in any situation.
The old tackle-eligible play, dis
carded In 1955, was restored in
good standing. The end man on
the line of scrimmage, regardless
of his designated position, will be
eligible for a pass.
Where the field, or acoreboard
clock. Is the official timepiece, of'
flclala do not need to advise the
teams oi ine lour-mmuie warning
before a half ends. If field officials
keep the lime, the teams must be
warned, but if it Is inconvenient
to action at the moment, time need
not be stopped to so advise the
teams.
In the matter of the kicking tee,
the committee approved an Inter
pretation already advanced by
Crlsler. If time Is out, the tee can
be tossed onto the field. If a player
asks the official for permission to
have the tee tossed in when time
Is in, there will be no penslty,
In the case of a deflected pass
that is still in the air, hands may
be used In a free-for-all to eaten
the ball and the pass Interference
rule Is dead. This was another
clarification of the present rule.
The rule governing coaching
from the sidelines waa deemed all
Inclusive. But the Conference Com
missioners Assn., will be asked to
Instruct their officials to enforce
It more than they have In the past,
Crlsler said.
Hash-marks on the Inbound chalk
lines approximately 17 yards In
from the sidelines are now man
datory. , . , The story of face
masks will continue another year.
. . . Both the new Gothic block and
Arabic block numerals may be used,
the former as a new experiment
for visual aid to the spectators.
. . . The rule which says a ball
carrier may not be pulled or
pushed on a run. which includes a
solid butt from, for instance, a full
back to a quarterback on a sneak
play, must be enforced.

Nearly all the top-ranked Oregon
high school teams came through
with victories In Friday night play,
although Eugene. No. 3 In the As
sociated Press poll, had to go into
a double overtime to down stub
born Milwaukie, 60-58.
Milwaukie, ranked No. 5 In the
state, came from behind to knot
the count at 56-all at the end of
regular playing time and then
emerged from the first overtime
In a 58-58 deadlock. Doug Lund
strom provided Eugene the victory
by sinking two free throws In the
second overtime.
Portland's top teams. Franklin
and Jefferson, ranked No. 1 and 3
in the state, came through handily.
Franklin downing Washington. 64
60, while Jefferson squelched
Cleveland, 74-55.
In fact only one of the teams
in the top 10 was upset.
That was South Salem, ranked
No. 6. Albany, No. 15 In the state,
pulled the surprise, a 61-52 deci
sion over the Salemlles.
Medford. rated No. 4, defented
the sevenih-ranked team, Klamath
Falls. 73-64.
Mllton-Freewater, No. 9 In the
poll, had a scare from Baker, but
emerged with a 49-47 decision, and
Beaverton, the No. 10 team,
downed Oregon City. 58-51.
Prominent In other results were
the 51-41 Corvallls win over North
Salem: Oresham's 60-40 victory
over Sandy; St. Helens over Wy'
East, 67-51; Hermliton's 75-58 up
set of The Dalles; Pendleton over

cials nave been able to rals. not
more than half the coat. "On an
annual budget of around $49,000
we've been out of pocket about
$25,000 year." says Bryant.
But Greater Seattle, a civic
booster organization, looks upon
those 300,000 speedboat fans as
good customers for the city's mer
chants, and figures there ar. hun
dreds of thousands more watching
the race by television, hearing It
on the radio and reading the news
paper reports,
That's why It takea th tlmwr
off the wallet to underwrit the
race. That's also why it's leading
the drive to raise the 25.000 nurm
for 1956. Bryant regards the $25,000
as a beginning, a sDrinsboard.
"The purse could no un to $50,000
In another year and eventually
reach $100,000." says Jerry.
The only settled Items In connee.
tion with the Seafalr Trophy rac
ai present are the purs, and the
date. There has been no decision
as to now tne nurse will be divided.
All of it may be split up among; the
leading boats or part may be set
aside and pro-rated to help owners
defray the costs of hauling their
expensive craft cross-country from
such points as Detroit and Los
Angeles.
In an; case, the winners am
likely to split most of the prize
money among their crews. Boats
cost around $25,000 to build and
ma owners look upon them as a
hobby or a means of advertising
a business. The Seafalr Tronhv
vent will be the first time the
unumiteas nave aver raced for a
purse.-

the rules for the Seafalr Trophy
race will be very similar to th.

Detroit by winning the cup. It took
the rest of th. world .11 those
years to catch ud by Imitating th.
