FRIDAY, FEBRUARY, 21, 1958 IIERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE ELEVEN Advance Ticket Sale Lags For S.F. Giants By HAL WOOD United Press Sports Writer SAN FRANCISCO (UP) The gold mine that the Giants hoped to work when they came to San Francisco, it now appears, is go ing to take a lot of "sluicing." "Our advance ticket sales haven't lived up to expectations," Peter Hoffman, Giant ticket man ager, said today. "We have a little stadium and I thought there would be a mad rush to get season tickets to as sure a seat, but it hasn't worked out that way. "So far, our advance season ticket sale totals only 2.940 that's what we can guarantee for each game this year. That doesn't look Arcaro Gets 4,000th Win ARCADIA, Calif. (UP) "The only tension I felt was what you newspaper fellows created your selves," veteran jockey Eddie Ar caro declared following h i s 4,00(rth turf victory. Arcaro left for Florida's Hia leah track Thursday night after scoring No. 4,000 in the 8th race aboard Ban Thursday. He is scheduled to ride Mahan in the S100.000 Widener Handicap at the Florida track Saturday. "It was just another day of rac ing for me, but I'm glad to have reached the 4,000 mark," he said of Thursday's feat. "I'm going to go right on riding, probably not another 27 years, but a few more anyway." Arcaro, who turned 42 only a day before achieving the mile stone, is in his 27th year of racing. He will be presented with a large silver plate following the fourth race here next Tuesday. Arcaro is the third rider in his tory to reach the 4,000 mark and only the second on the American turf. Johnny Longden is the cham pion with 5092 winners. Retired Sir Gordon Richards of England has 4870. Phil Rookie Pleads Guilty SPOKANE. Wash. Wl - Ed Bouchee pleaded guilty - to two counts of indecent exposure in volving girls aged six and ten and the once-promising professional baseball career of the husky Phil adelphia player remains in ques tion. Judge Ralph P. Edgerton or dered a pre-sentence investigation Thursday for Bouchee, 24, a rook ie standout at first base for the Phillies last season. The judge tentatively set March 5 for sen tencing, but said it might be soon er if the investigation were com pleted quickly. Indecent exposure is a felony in Washington state and carries a possible sentence of up to 20 years in prison, but Bouchee could re ceive probation. He remained free under $2,500 bond. The Philadelphia baseball club has refused comment on the case but showed its interest by retain ing a lawyer, Robert Stoeve, who appeared at the arraignment along with Bouchee's regular counsel. Stoeve said he did not know what the club planned to do. like much compared with the 7, 500 they are talking about for the Dodgers in Los Angeles." ONLY ONE SELLOUT The only game that is sold out is the first one when the open ing day crowd on April 15 will come near to bursting the walls at Seals Stadium. That number will be under 25,000, however, compared with the 102,000 -seat edifice for the Dodgers in Los Angeles. In another year the Oiants will move into a new 45,000 seat sta dium, and the Dodgers, in two years, will down-grade to a 50,- 000-seating arrangement. Hoffman said that the average pre-season ticket sale in New York for the Giants was only about 2,800. 'But we had lots or room at the Polo Grounds," he pointed out. "Here I thought there would be a rush due to a shortage of space." Hoffman isn t discouraged. He figures that when baseball starts hitting the headlines and interest in winter sports wears off that the fans will turn their attention to baseball and start making their purchases. The prices here range from 1.50 for a box seat to $2.50 re served; $1.50 in the pavilion and 90 cents in the bleachers. WEATHER HURT SEALS While San Francisco fans set an all-time minor league attend ance record of 700,000 in the post war boom years, they have stayed away from Seals Stadium in droves in recent summers be cause of the weather and the lack of parking space. June, July and August are the "fog" months in this area and many of the local residents with vacations coming up go out of town to get warm. On the other hand, thousands of visitors swarm into the city to get away from the sweltering in terior to get cooled off and there may be nearly as much transient trade for the Giants during those months as they had in New York. When the club moves into its new stadium, with parking space for thousands of cars and a fog free climate, it is expected that business will pick up. Phil Moyer Tops Gonzales PORTLAND Ml Young Phil Moyer poured on a steady body attack which, coupled with a fourth-round knockdown, gave him a unanimous decision over Pedro Gonzales of Rankins, Pa., in a 10-round middleweight bout here Thursday night. The Portland boxer scored the knockdown with a flashing right that had Gonzales on the canvas for an eight count. But Gonzales appeared strong the rest of the bout as Moyer was unable to fol low up the advantage. Also aiming at the body in late rounds, Gonzales piled up points in the sixth with a series of stiff jabs to Moyer's head.

This was done to improve and expand facilities for manufacture of building materials, pulp and paperboard. Also a merger was effected with the Kieckhefer Container Corporation and The Eddy Paper Company, operating paperboard mills in the East, and 30 plants throughout the nation producing shipping containers, milk cartons and other specialty packages. The purpose was to improve the long-term prospects for increased utili7.ation of the forest crop and to provide a broader market for the Company's paperboard production. These events indicate some of the important steps the Company is taking toward building a permanent forest industry. . White lumber production was almost equal to 1956, and plywood and pulp production wos up, total sales were down 4, largely due to lower lumber and plywood prices. Lower prices, together with higher costs, caused a decline m earnings from $2.10 per share in 1956 to $176 in 1957. yvr "",".','.',' m WtYfRHtUSR ILmuiiiihiumU ,, i, .'. , , v, WEYERHAEUSER TIMBER COMPANY working to build a permanent, stable forest industry
