j TUESDAY, JULY 22. 1958 HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. bREGON PAGE ELEVEN Baseball Is Everywhere Series Ticket Requests Time Out Today's Sport Parade 4 San Francisco Fans Go Wild Over Baseball SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) - San Francisco has gone baseball ber n seik! " On every corner, in every bar. In most homes, at every service ' station, the talk is baseball in general and the Giants in par ticular. "Never saw anything like it." - says Chub Feeney, Giant vice president. . t But ticket manager Peter Hoff man is the man caught in the ' middle. "We get an average of 25 let ters a week asking for reserva tions for the World's Series," says Hoffman. "Last week I got a letter from a man. enclosins a check for $1,000 as a deposit for a box for eight for the full series. Like all the others. I had to return it. With a stadium that will seat only 23.000, the Giants aren't in very good position to entertain the World Series but they'll be happy to take It anyway. "If we should happen to get into the series, says Feeney, "it will be played right here in Seals Stadium not in the Los An geles Coliseum, as some have suggested. "The ticket scale would he such that the players still would get a good cut of money." Have the Giants considered starting work on programs or ticket printing? . "Nothing like that at all," said Feeney. "Two weeks before the end of the season, the commis sioner orders the teams that are in contention: to have tickets printed. The commissioners of fice pays lor tne printing oi me tickets. "Know something? This year (he race is so close that he may wind up ordering all eight teams to have tickets printed!" Meanwhile, the San Francisco fans still can't believe that this rookie-laden club seriously can be in the race. The Giants are up there but are they up there to stay? They ask the question at breakfast, luncheon and dinner. The hysteria, of course, has been helped along by the five metropolitan newspapers. Last Saturday, for instance, all five newspapers had tne top banner nn the Giants; all five had the lead column on the Giants; and all five had one, two or three side bars on the Giants. Most days, the front sports page of each newspaper will devote from lour to six columns on the Oi ants, plus a picture or two leav ing very little room to feature anything else. Braves' Attack Bogs Down, Hitting Cited , MILWAUKEE (APl-The ques t tion most heard along baseball's byways these days is "What's wrong with the Milwaukee Braves?" . To reply to it, one must fire . a scattergun because there is no . nail-on-the-head Bnswer. Many more scores will be . posted between row and Sept. 28 and the world champions may ',: indeed, should repeat. They were . the overwhelming choice in the , National League in all of the pre- . season polls. That they have enabled the rest , of the senior circuit to contract . the standings into the tightest - race in modern history has trig gered puzzlement, outright won . der. This was the team that was , to have salted away the pennant . at an early date and then sat , back and contemplated ways and means of pinning the New York Hollywood Race Season Set To Close .

MIXED DOUBLES Mounties Bow, Drop From PCL's Top Spot Yankees' ears back again in the World Series. Perhps the answer that comes closest to the nub of the matter simple enough the champs haven't been hitting. Only West Covington, still an unknown factor because of his un sound left knee, Frank Torre and Del Crandall have been hitting where near what was expected of them. If anything. Torre and Crandall have been hitting above expectations. But. there have been other factors contributing to the Braves' recession. These include: 1. The loss of right-hander Bob Buhel, a potential 18-game win ner, with a sore arm and injuries to other kev Dlavers. A disappointing, aownrignt overrated bench. 3. 'The inability of World Series standout Lew Burdette to untan gle himself. 4. The apparent aecune ot ea Schoendienst. without whom the Braves probably never would have won the flag last season. 5. Lack of a deal for an out fielder, such as Richie Ashburn or Ken Boyer, both of whom the Braves tried to land. 6. Indications that perhaps the team is not as dedicated as it should be. There were rumors during the All-Star Game at Baltimore that there was front-office friction be tween President Joe Cairnes and General Manager John Quinn. Rarely, one rumor had it, do Cairnes and Quinn wind up on the same side of any question. If that is true, it has been the best-kept secret of this or any other campaign. Cairnes steers clear of player matters with few exceptions like last fall when the Braves fired their coacning stait after beating the Yankees and Cairnes took a hand in naming the new assistants. Manager Fred Haney, at least outwardly, has maintained that the club s troubles are only tem porary. But. ne grumDica recently: "We ought to be ashamed of ourselves the way we've been playing. We've looked like bunch of Little Leaguers." H. Hanscam-M. Hanscam A. Thomas-G. Thomaa W. Bailey-C. Hooptr T. Bray-P. Bray E. Tomlln-E. Tomlln H. Kflch-R. Clouari S. Book-M. Diuiirom F. Luquer-F.

(UPI) -Right-hander Bob Buhl of the Milwaukee Braves figures he will know within seven to 10 days whether the pain in his pitching shoulder has disappeared and he again can take his place on the mound for the world cnampions. But the tall, well-built hurler who will be 30 years old next month makes it clear he'll take all the time he needs to try and return to form without undergoing surgery because of the possible consequences to his career. Buhl threw Monday night for the first time in a month. The pitches were easy lobs to a catch er and Buhl said his arm "felt pretty good" after the short exercise. However, the Saginaw, Mich. hurler. whose fast ball won him 18 games both in 1956 and 1957, said he can't be too encouraged until he throws full speed. He 11 increase the tempo of his pitch ing until he reaches the maxi mum within seven to 10 days. Only then will I know whether my arm is okay," said Buhl, who has been on the disabled list 30 days with bicipital tendonits, a muscle injury which first both ered him late last season. I'm not anxious to have them put a knife in my shoulder." said Buhl. A Philadelphia orthopedic surgeon has told Buhl he'll have to undergo an operation if the pain in his shoulder persists. Such an operation, according to several doctors, might impair pitching ef fectiveness.

B. rsrlT Jos EsrlT Preprletars Thoroughly Modern Man, Horse Clash Aqain In Long Race SALT LAKE CITY (API-Three confident long-distance runners jog off today in a 157-mile mara thon to prove a man can outrun a horse. Paul (Hardrock) Simpson, 53, veteran runner from Burlington, N.C., and two others, will compete against three men on horseback an endurance run from here to Roosevelt, Utah. Simpson, a postman, said he once beat a horse in a similar 143.9-mile race from Burlington to Kinston N.C. That was in 1927. Roy McMurtry, 62, another vet-l eran marathon runner, competed with Simpson in cross-country in 1928. Both have kept active as runners. McMurtry was Indiana state marathon champion in 1928. He now lives in Tucson. Ariz. The third runner is Edo Romag- noli. 37, Ozone Park, N.Y., a New York policeman who keeps in trim by running 14 miles to and from work each day. He was the 1955 junior marathon champion at Detroit. The horsemen will be Wesley Bastian, Roosevelt. Utah; Stewart Brown After Quick Kayo Of Ken Lane HOUSTON, Tex. (AP) Light weight champion Joe Brown says he could put challenger Kenny Lane to bed early tomorrow nigni but will let him stick around a while "lust to let him suffer." 'I could get him out of there m three or tour rounds, am think 1 11 let him stay six or sev en just to let him suffer for all that bad moutn mat s Deen com ing from him." Brown said. The two meet in a 15-round title bout at Sam Houston Coliseum. It will -be televised nationally, startina at 9 p.m.. EST. Brown wound up heavy work at his Camp Holden training site near here yesterday. Lane planned only limbering up exercises at a downtown camp. Lane claims his six-year age advantage over the 32-year-old champion will give him the edge "I'm ready." Lane said. The Muskegon. Mich., left-hand er seeks to become the first south paw to hold the lightweight title "I want to save the lightweight division from that. Brown mut tered. Trainers of both said their fight ers are in the pink. . The crafty champion has put in long sparring hours -with left handers in training since Lane is noted for his leading with his right. "These left - handers," Brown said. "They ought to take 'em out and drown em before supper. Approval Eyed For Jump Site YAKIMA, Wash.

Nat Director Quits After Frick's Reply WASHINGTON (UPD The resignation of C. Leo Deorsey as director of the Washington sen ators apparently was prompted by a warning from American League President will tiarnage that baseball's most outspoken In dividual be silenced or fired. Deorsey, one of baseball Com- missiontr Ford Frick severest critics, tendered his resignation a letter to Calvin Griffith, the Senators' president, July 11 but Griffith withheld the announce ment until Monday. Meanwhile, United Press Inter national learned that Harridge sent Griffith a telegram last April accusing Deorsey of an unwar ranted and unjustified attacK on Frick and demanding that Deorsey cease or desist. Deorsey, confirming that Har ridge had sent such a warning denied any suggestion that he had quit under presure or was tired. Both f rick and Harridge, wnen informed of Deorsey's resigna tion, declined comment. 'I have never met Mr. Deorsey and don't care to comment on 'his resignation." said Frick.

Bolt Broke First Golf Club In Italy By OSCAR FRALEY United Press International HAVERTOWN, Pa. (UPD Tommy Bolt walks a tempera mental tight rope today alt be cause of a golf course built by 500 pounds of sugar and the breaking of a golf club fashioned from a tank's radio antenna. There are other ingredients which contribute to Tommy's reputation as a Thunder Bolt They are two five-gallon GI cans which were filled with golf balls, a dozen and a half Number 10 tomato cans and the partisan heckling of a horde of Italian fair way enthusiasts. All of them were concerned in the branding of Bolt as "terrible temoered" Tommy. The story of Bolt s trinuiauons started when Dugan Aycock, golf professional at the Lexington Country Club in North Carolina, swapped his cleats for khaki and shipped out as sergeant in the 605th Ordnance attached to the Fifth Army.

Dugan laid out (airways and, paying the Arab laborers off in sugar, used 500 pounds in getting his fairways mowed by hand. The tomato cans from the mess shack were used or cups and sand greens were dressed up with motor oil and ground cork. The course was such a smash ing success that, when Aycock's outfit finally moved on to Rome, he was given permission to build another course. Ihe greens were there, this time, but the fairways had grown wild. Equipment was getting scarce, loo. "We finally got the course into some kind of shape," he recalls. and had a windfall when we found 20 putter heads in a bombed out building near the course. But we had a maintenance outfit which could do anything and It fashioned shafts out of tank radio antennas." One of the horde of 285 con testants was a young GI named Tommy Bolt who was awaiting replacement with an infantry out fit. We also let in a few of the top Italian players," Aycock re calls. "One of these was a fellow named Ugo Grapposoni. Natural ly the Italians wanted him to win the tournament and they were as excited as chickens with a weasel in the henhouse when it looked like he would. So, when Bolt be gan lo close in on Ugo, they be gan to give Tommy all the heck ling they could. Bolt blew his stack. On on green he snapped one of those precious putter shafts made out of a tank antenna. A writer with Stars and Stripes saw him do it and "Thunder" Bolt was born. When Tommy inarched home it was his misfor tune to play in a tournament cov ered by the same writer, now back on the home front sports heat. "Thunder" hit the headlines to stay and people have been heckling him to explode and "throw it" ever since. 'Tommy's temperament made it easy for him to oblige them," Aycock says. Now he 1 nave to control nim- self, however, for he is under in. definite probation for "conduct detrimental to the game. "If he's smart and controls himself, he'll be one of the most colorful players since Walter Ha- gen, says Aycock. But ne proved to me when we were In service, and I gave mm wnat lor because he broke that precious putter, that he could. It s been a long road. Aycock now is "home club professional of the year" Bolt, as winner of the U.S. Open, is in the running for "Golfer of the Year" honors. And it all goes back to that suear. those tomato cans and a tank antenna which would have been safer in battle. WINS FOUR PAWTUCKET. R.I.
