What ever happened to all those home run records
that were going to be set in the Los Angeles Coliseum by
those rough and tough National League sluggers?
We're still waiting for all of the "experts" to show how
the record books will be written as the balls sail over the
42-foot fence some 250 feet away from home plate. We'll
agree that there will be more base hits that hit the wall
than in other parks, but base hits aren't always home runs.
The short fence made good "copy" for sports writers
and good "gossip" for the league's pitchers. Early in the
season with all of the attention centered on the short fence, every
home run was counted as if it were 14-carat plated, but this tune has
been changing as the novelty wears off.
The uproar at the start of the
season looked good at the close ef
the first home stand by the Dodg
ers, but at the end of the recent
home session our suspicions were
confirmed. In the first 21-game
stand, 63 homers sailed out of the
park. But in the recent 12-game
series, only 20 dropped in for four
baggers. This is an average of 1.66
per game.
For the season, the 33-game av
erage is only 2.66, not any more
than some parks in the past, es
pecially the band box Brooklyn
had for the Dodgers, Ebbets Field.
Even if the average (2.66 per
game) would continue for the rest
of the season, the total would be
205 homers as compared with 217
hit at Cincinnati last year and 207
hit in Ebbets Field. But if the pace
for the rest of the season continues
as it did during the last 12 games,
only 151 homers will be hit for
the season.
Los Angeles manager Walt Al
son says: "We think we're getting
better results just hitting normal
and going for the base hits.
And our pitchers ate no longer
pitches they thought at first might
shooting for the high outside
pitches they tought at first might
keep the batters from putting the
ball over or into the screen. They
are pitching to the batters weak
ness just like in the past and have
bad better luck.
The distance of 250 feet sounds
very questionable for a home run.
But to hit a ball that far and 42
feet in the air you'd have to get
tome good wood on it. Take
look at the following park measure
ments and see how much differ
ence there is between them and
the 250-plus 42-foot fence in LA
Baltimore 309-feet down both
left and right field lines.
Boston 302-feet down right

There isn't too much difference
Is there?

Teams Slate Twin Bill
Backed up by errorless play,
pitcher Don Anhorn held the Klam
ath Falls American Legion nine
to three hits, to earn a 2-0 shut
out victory at Central Point Sat
urday night.
The Central Pointers, although
they got to Klamath Falls pitch
ers Blake Griggs and Keith Far
rell for only five hits, managed to
space them so that they counted
a run in both the third and fifth
Innings. Griggs was charged with
the loss.
Anhorn led the Central Point hit
ters as he collected two singles
In three trips to the plate.
Singles were garnered by Bill
Worlein, Rich Moore and P a u
Bishop to complete the Klamath
plate strength.
Hi Hatfield's Klamath Falls
American Legion baseball club re
turns home today after a long and
heavy road trip that started 1 hurs-
day in Albany and ended Saurday
night at central Point.
Klamath hosts Central Point at
Gem Stadium this afternoon in a
doubleheader with the first game
counting towards the Southern Ore
gon League standings. The two
teams collided last night at Cen
tral Point in a single game that
counts in the league race.
Thursday, Klamath whipped Al
bany but on Friday, Eugene wal
loped the local legion club 14-0.
A scheduled second game was
called off due to a lack of pitching
strength on both ball clubs. Eu
gene was slated to meet Roseburg
this weekend in a league twin
bill, the same as Klamath was
set to take on Central Point.
Today's foe for Klamath is
ranked as one of the leading jun

PHOENIX. Ariz. (AP) Presi
dent Les O'Connor of the Pacific

Vancouver s protest of an obstruc
tion ruling in a recent Portland-
Vancouver game.
The ruling was based on an in
cident in the 15th inning of e
game won by Portland 6-5 Wed
nesday. Vancouver pitcher George
Bamberger was charged with ob
structing the runner on a bunt by
Portland s w ilcy Moore.
Vancouver Manager Charlie

fielded the bunt. '

ers are picking Central Point as
Oregon's No. 1 team at this point.
So far this year, the Crater High
baseballers hold wins over highly
regarded Roseburg and Medford,
which speaks very good of t h e
Cheney Lumber Company club.
Hatfield, who has been hamp
ered by too many games for his
small pitching staff, will probably
send righhander Blake Griggs to
the mound Sunday. It will be ei
ther Griggs or Dean Dunson, de
pending on who Hatfield decided
to throw at Crater under the lights
Saturday at Central Point.
Other Klamath starters will find
Rich Moore handling the catch
ing and Dunson at first base. Steve
Binney will be at shortstop team
ing with Smiley Herrera at second
for the keystone combination. Es-
tin Kiger, who has been rapping
the ball hard lately, will start at
third.
In the Klamath outfield will prob
ably be Bob Yunck, Bill Worlein,
and Glyn Michaels. When Griggs
isnt pitching he will be in left
field. If Dunson throws, Binney
goes to first, Herrera changes to
shortstop and Paul Bishop will be
at second. Bishop may also be
called upon to throw some after
beating Albany 9-4 on five hits.
Friday at Eugone, base on balls
killed Klamath along with the
tight three-hit pitching by Robbie
Snow and Mnte Elder. Snow set
12 Klamath batters down in the
first four innings, thanks to
pair of double plays in the first
and second innings. Elder, who
was touched for just one hit and
a walk, checked the visitors in the
final three frames without giving
up a tally.

followed by three more scores in
the sixth completed the Eugene
scoring tor the day, more than
enough for the win.

Bill Worlein had two for three and

All-Star Tilt
EUGENE (AP) A bunt let in
the winning run as the Metro
team edged the Slate 9-8 in Ore
gon's first annual all-star prep
baseball game here Saturday
night.
The score was tied 8-8 when
Terry Stewart was hit by a pitch
ed ball to open the final half of
the ninth inning for the Metro
squad.
The next batter, Ted Thomp
son, put down a bunt. Pitcher
Jim Smith threw wildly to first
base and Stewart raced all the
way to third base.
Then catcher Sam Holtcen laid
down a perfect bunt and Stewart
easily scored with the winning run.
The State squad capped a come
back effort by tying the score at
8-8 with three runs in the eighth
inning.
Jeff Durham tripled home two
of the eighth-inning scores and
then he scored on a single by
Ron Beamer.
Bcamer, a top member of Rose-
burg's team before graduation
this spring, was selected the most
valuable player on the state squad.
The Metro MVP award went to
pitcher Mickey Lolich, who gave
up but one hit in the three inn
ings he hurled.
The game, which lasted just a
shade under three hours, drew
1.500 fans on a warm, calm night.

The brilliant run broke the ac

and it took a remarkable run by
the 20-year-old Elliott to stave off

SPOKANE (AP) The Spokane

forces Saturday with the purchase
of 35-year-old righthander Art

Indian general manager Spencer

He said Fowler, a control pitch

with the last-place Rainers is 4-7,
but his 100 innings of work show
a high performance, statistically.
He has given up S5 hits in 100
