United Press International
The Milwaukee Braves are plain
professional kill-joys.
Each time San Francisco's opti
mistic Giants send up a trial
pennant balloon, the Braves
promptly stick a pin in it.
That was pretty much the case
Friday night when the Braves
cut short all World Series talk
among the Giants by defeating
them, 4-2, to take a two-game
lead in the National League race.

Wood, Casey Agree
Over "Frisco Freaks'
SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) Don't
know what the Yankees' Casey
Stengel means, for sure, when he
brands the San Francisco entry
In the National League pennant
race the "Frisco Freaks."
But I'm kind of inclined to agree
with the guy!
A "freak" according to Web
ster's Dictionary, is "an abnormal
animal or plant."
This pennant-challenging Giant
club is about as "abnormal" an
animal as ever performed in the
major leagues. For instance:
The only regulars on the club
are centerfielder Willie Mays,
shortstop Daryl Spencer and first
baseman Orlando Cepeda and
possibly second baseman Danny
O'Connell. Who ever heard of a
championship club before with only
three or four regulars?
Who ever heard of a club bat
tling down to the wire for the
pennant depending largely on
rnnkies in ri2 ht and left field,
third base, first base, home plate
and on the mound?
Who ever heard of a champion
ship club without a pitching staff
working in regular rotation or
nnp with onlv one "regular" for
that matter? Only Johnny Anton
elli seems to he a sure starter
every four days.
Who ever heard of a club that
finished sixth one year climbing
clear up to first the next?
Who ever heard of a club
making a bid for the pennant with
a rookie catcher, such as Bob
Schmidt, doing a majority of the
receiving? and his replacement,
Valmy Thomas, a man with one
vear's experience?
Who ever heard of a club that

CHICAGO AP "All baseball
needs is more good ball players,"
groaned Casey Stengel, manager
of the New York Yankees, when
asked for comment on a proposal
to change baseball's rules.
Stengel's flat rejection of the
proposal made Friday, by
American League President Will
Harridge summed up feelings of
most managers and officials in
the game.
In a memo to club owners, Har
ridge asked that consideration be
given to an amendment that
would permit use of a substitute
player twice in a game. Harridge
said the proposal was suggested
by Lou Fonseca, former major
league player and manager who
is now motion picture director for
the American and National
Leagues.
The change would permit a
player removed from a game for
other than a rules infraction to re
enter the contest provided one in
ning had elapsed between his de
parture and return.
Harridge said the proposed
change may contain "some flaws
we have not discovered," but, he
added, "we have the feeling that
the change would please the pub
lic and give managers more lee
way in their strategy."
Ford Frick, commissioner of
baseball, was not available for
comment, but' National League
President Warren Giles said "It
has no appeal to me."
Frank Lane, outspoken general
manager of the Cleveland Indians,
said "It's a horrible idea. It would
make the games much longer
than they are now. Baseball is so

Hunters Out
In California
SACRAMENTO (UPI) Cali
fornia's Fish and Game Depart
ment, and particularly Director
Seth Gordon, put its controver
sial 1956 doe hunt policy to the
test Saturday when the coastal
deer season opened in 29 counties
An estimated 300,000 hunters
were expected to participate in the
hunt which continues through Sep.
14. The state's inland season
starts Sept. 20 and ends Oct. 26
The Fish and Game Depart
ment pointed out that a wet 1957
Droduced an abundance of food
for the deer so most experts an
ticipate a good hunt.
The commission issued a warn
ing that forests are tinder-dry
desDite recent rains.
Fish and game experts, who
took a chance two years ago and
called for a doe hunt to cut down
the deer population, hope hunters
have luck this year.
Recently, two officials of the de
partment, the former game man
agement supervisor, W. P. Das
mann, and the current supervisor.
Fred Jones, defended the doe
hunt.
However, they said its effect
"cannot be completely evaluated"
until this year and next. The
reason, they said, was tnat tawns
the decreased does of 1956 "might
have produced in 1957" would
not have become legal bucks un
til they were one or two years of
age.
Critics of the doe hunt claimed
deer herds in some Sierra and
northern counties were drastically
reduced and it will take years to
build them back.

popular because the game is rela

would complicate the game."
Birdie Tebbetts, manager of
Cincinnati's Redlegs, said "It
doesn't sound good. We (man
agers) have too much leeway and
strategy as it is.
Manager Fred Haney of Mil
waukee's world champion Braves
said "As a first reaction I don't
like it. It's like trying to make
the game like professional foot
ball with unlimited substitution. It
would mean looking for an alto
gether different type of utility
player.
Al Lopez, White Sox manager,
said "Such a change would revolu-
lionize the game. I'm afraid I
can't make any comment other
than that until I give the matter
more study.
John McHale, Detroit general
manager, called it "A very in
teresting proposal and certainly
merits study. Any changes which
might make the game more in
teresting to the fans should be
thoroughly studied."
In making his suggestion, Fon
seca said "As a career baseball
man, I would be the last to make
a suggestion that might make a
farce of the sport. Baseball needs
a lift. Other sports continually
make changes, but professional
baseball has stood virtually still
"Certainly, with this change
baseball will become a more sus
penseful spectator activity. Ima
gine Ted Williams leaving a game
with Boston a run or so ahead,
then when the score is tied he re
turns with a man on base Of
course, it'll create suspense."

200th Victory
PHILADELPHIA (AP) Robin
Roberts, with major league vie
lory No. 200 tucked safely awav.
Saturday considered the possibil
ity of winning 300. A year ago.
he was wondering if he ever would
pitch winning baseball aeain for
me rnnaaelpnia Phillies.
"If I keep pitching the way I
have." he said Friday night, "I
might make it. My arm really
feels fine now. I'm throwing with
tnat easy motion.
Roberts, 31, normally quiet and
modest, virtually used up his word
quota for the season after fanning
six and allowing the Chicago Cubs
three hits for a 3-1 victory, his
200th in 11 years. It was the right
hander's lllh victory against nine
defeats. Last year Roberts won
10, lost 22. He dropped 16 of his
last 20 decisions.
He is the 59lh major leaguer
to hit 200 victories and if he en
joys the success of Warren Spahn
of Milwaukee and Early Wynn of
Chicago's White Sox, he may
come close to 300. Both Spahn
and Wynn are the only active ma
jor league pitchers with more than
200 victories.
Since their 31st birthdays,
Spahn, 37, has won 117 games and
Wynn, 38, has won 123.
I had a fast ball and a hook
and it was enough," said Roberts
Friday night. "I never felt faster,
One extra day's rest helped me
a lot."
Manager Eddie Sawyer delayed
Roberts' start a day to insure rest
for his hurler, who has won six
of his last seven decisions.

Miceli Cries After
Lopsided
SYRACUSE, N.Y. (AP) - "We
wuz robbed" is heard in boxing as
much as punches are seen thrown.
But coming from a fighter who
won only three rounds, it bears
study.
Joe Miceli, . veteran ringman
from New York City, thought he got
bad deal here Friday night
when he lost a 10-round unani
mous decision to Yama Bahama
of the British West Indies.
Miceli based his argument on
that fact that Bahama went into a
bear-hugging routine in the first
round alter two knockdowns.
"He should have been disquali
fied in the first round!" Miceli
shouted in his noisy dressing
room. "The referee was a big guy,
but he couldn't tear that guy off
me, the 29-year-old left-handed
hooker said.
Miceli sent Bahama to a foggy
island with a crushing left upper
cut in the first punch of the fight.
Bahama grabbed and tackled his
man around the ring. Again, Mi
celi caught the glassy-eyed Ba
hama in the first and the routine
took an encore this time with
referee Joe Palmer an added
starter.
Hie best Miceli could do after
that was crash to the floor in the
eightli round and flail away with
his favorite looping left hand
After weathering the early
knockdowns, Bahama centered his
attack on Miceli's midsection. The
pace began to show on the tiring
Miceli and his timing was slowed
to the point where he was measur
ing his opponent. At these states,
Bahama was crossing Miceli's left
with rights to the head.
Referee Palmer, who scored It
7-2-1 in favor of Bahama, said
after the fight he had no intention
of ending it because of Bahama's
holding tactics. "You have to give
something like that a lot of
thought," he said.
Brigham Young is unbeaten
