Tribe Eying
Leg Manager
NEW YORK (UP) Detroit and
Cleveland are both eyeing Cincin
nati's Birdie Tebbetts as manager
for 1957; it was learned today by
uie united rress.
Neither the Tigers nor the In
dians "have much of a chance to
get Tebbetts, lhough,"l according
to the source, because General
Manager Gabe Paul of the Red
legs "works together with him ex
ceptionally well and wants the
present set-up to continue for a
long time to come."
The 45-year old Tebbetts, cur
rently a leading "manager of the
year" candidate for the job he has
done with Cincinnati this season,
lias one more year to go tinder a
three-year contract he signed with
the Redlegs at the start of the
lfi55 campaign.
The Tigers and Indians are both
shopping for new managers for the
coming year and both "have made
definite overtures in Tebbetts' di
rection, ' said the same sources.
Tebbetts and ex-Giant Manae-
er Leo Durocher, as a matter ,of
fact, have been the two most
sought after pilots during the past
tnree months.
Even the Milwaukee Braves
were interested in Tebbett's serv
ices for 1957 until they signed Fred
Haney for next year only last
Tuesday night.
When Haney succeeded Charlie
Grimm as manager last June,"
the source revealed, "the Braves
weren't at all sure that Haney
would be the man for them next
year. Tebbetts was their first
choice if Haney had failed to make
a good showing,"

weight title).
early season look, it seems to be
a dog-eat-dog battle for the loop s
crown.
Last year, the state-championship
Malin team was the county
king on the gridiron, and in 1954,
Malin and Chiloquin tied for the
honors with the vote of coaches
and principals going to Chiloquin.
As the 1956 season opens, these
two clubs are again ranked high
on the favorite's list, but so are
the other three competing teams.'
Henley, several seasons back,
rated as the ruler of the county
wide sports program, but after out
growing the "B" ranks has re
mained as an independent. The
same will be true this year. The
Hornets, under the coaching of Al
Fairchild, will be meeting such
teams as Lakeview,. Illinois Valley,
Eagle Point, Glendale and Brook
ings in the A division, while
Malin, Merrill and Chiloquin will
be the "B" clubs to vie against
Henley.
Sacred Heart Academy for the
past several years the under
manned team of the county league,
may be the biggest surprise of the
five-team - circuit in '56. With one
game already under their belts,
that a 13-7 win over Medfords
St. Mary's, coach Pete Budig's
Trojans could be a definite threat
to Matin's defending champions.
Leading the way for sacred
Heart's returning lettermen are
quarterback Dean Michaelis and
end Dick Durrell, the combination
that wrecked St. Mary's last week
end.
Chiloquin, Merrill and Malin are
all at the top of the pre-season
coaches poll. Chiloquin will have
eight lettermen back including
backs Manny and Richard Ochoa.
The big loss at Chiloquin for
sophomore coach Gordon Kuist was
the graduation of lineman Vic sis-
son and end-fullback Dick Siemens
who played in the "B" Shrine
game.
Merrill's new mentor Al Keck
was greeted by eight returning let
termen, and the line play has
greatly impressed the Merrill new
comer. Last spring's graduation
class stripped Merrill of its lead
ing gridders such as Jack Barry
and Dale McCulloch, the latter also
playing in last month's shrine
game at Pendleton.
Malin lost all but two of its start
ers off the 1955 county, district
backs, including Barry Billington,
our best ball currier, who weigh
170 pounds each."
Al Scat lie, Washington's Coach
Darrell Royal discovered a new
scoring threat in a BO-minute
scrimmage that produced 10
touchdowns. A second string soph
omore, left half Don Millich of
Aberdeen, Wash., ran wild scor
ing five times, including a 77
yard run and another for 66 yards
through the middle.
