Mickey Mantle slugged his 31st home run and drove in four runs for the Yankees. Mantle's one-man show wasn't enough, however, as Gene Steph ens and Frank Malzone hit horn ers, Jimmy Piersall drove in two runs and Jackie Jensen batted in his 97th run for Boston before the largest crowd at the Yankee Stad ium in seven years. The huge throng turned out to see the annual Old-Timers' Day festivities, this year featuring an exhibition game between the Red Sox' pennant winning team of 1946 and the Yanks 1947 world cnarrh pions.

Christos Chiotis ran the event In 14:33.6. Otherwise, the evening was practically all American. The Yanks finished first and second In practically every event, and first, second and third in several others. This was the opening night of the final two-day meet on a long tiring tour of Europe which began last month in Moscow and trailed through Warsaw and Budapest. No score, either official or un official, was kept since the teams entered an uneven number of competitors in a great many events. Besides the loss by Dellineer, the American team got one more jolt, but it was of a mere Inter teain nature Eddie Southern fin ally defeated Glen Davis in the 400 meters race in 47.5. It is one of the few times the world record-holding Davis has ever lost to Southern, and It is Davis' only defeat so far on this tour. Before Saturday night, he had won eight races during one 11-day stretch. Jim Grollc of Portland. Ore won the 1.500 meter event with the time of 3:49.9. First event an American failed to win was the 50(1 meters. Chris tos Chiotis kicked hard at Ihe end to win from Bill Deliinger of Grant s Pass. Ore. British Gals Get Golf Cup BOSTON.

Quietly And Quickly PCC Life Wiped Qui Coast Conference Leaders In Agreement To Break Up PORTLAND (AP)-The Pacific Coast Coherence was put quietly and quickly to death Saturday. Faculty representatives of the nine member schools voted unani mously to dissolve the 43-year-old conference effective June 30, 1959. And they arranged to distribute the $175,000 which is expected to he on hand in the treasury next June. The meeting, scheduled for two days, adjourned after a brief aft ernoon session in which plans for participation in the Rose Bowl were discussed. Chancellor Glenn Seaborg of the Harry Craft Turns In Good Job For KC KANSAS CITY iP-If you were managing a big league baseball team for the first time in your life and . . . K your team suddenly trans- formcd itself from an inept low- raled aggregation into a closcknit, red hot first division contender and . . . If your name was Harry Craft Wouldn't you figure the time was ripe to grab a little glory To earn a nifty nickname like maybe "Crafty Craft? To strike an heroic pose and give out with some sparkling ouotes on "how 1 did it?" You probably would. But not Harry Craft who inherited t h e stumbling Kansas City Athletics late last season, kept them out of the cellar, and now has them bat tling for a high place in the Ameri can League. Craft is pleasant to Interview. hut avoids saying anything new or exciting. His success recipe boils down to hard work, good health among his players and a stern concentration on winning today's game today. The Athletics are composed of three kinds of players: young hope fuls, run-of-lhe-mine regulars and a few assorted nrs-beens. But Craft is unimpressed bv the past. His players, loo. seem to have forgotlen themselves. Take Hob Cerv. dumped by the ankees (or his mediocrity but now a lead ing contender (or the league's home run and runs baited in titles. Or veteran pitchers Ned Carver and Murry Dickson, given up as hopeless sorearm cases. And youngsters such as Ralph Terry. Hoger Maris and Mike Baxes. just now beginning to feel safe in un packing their trunks. NCB Tourney Pairings Made WICHITA.

Prizes Attract Shasta Keglers MOUNT SHASTA - With Joseph rnlfini rolling a score of 2iM at Shasta Lanes, and Mrs. Irene Blount holding ladies hish score ol 21t the $925 in cash and mer chandise ottered for a 300 men's score, or 275 lor ladies is begin ning to attract attention. The prues are held out by Mount Shasta business houses to the first who equals the scores indicated. Hud Overhey, Shasta Lanes man ager, slates that with the improve ment shown during the past few months, Ihe prize should be taken down by some local bowler before Thanksgiving. University of California, who act ed as conference spokesman at a meeting with the press, said the group had reached agreement on a plan for participation in the traditional New Year's Day game at Pasadena, Calif., in 1960. He said the plan will be pre sented to other parties of the con tractthe Tournament of Roses Assn., the National Broadcasting Co. and the Big Ten. Seaborg said he could not dis close the plan until it had first been presented to the other par ties. The only other matter taken up What's the secret? "You've got "o have a certain amount of experience, along with ambitious youth," Craft explains. "You've got to get a group liking to play ball. I'e had wonderful cooperation from Ihe players. They are all trying to win, trying to be resourceful. In fact, I ve thought at times some of them played be yond their natural ability. "We set out 'o huild a better defensive club. As the defense im proved, the pitching improved. As the pitching improved we are able to win with fewer runs. "We set as our goal 70 victories. I picked that number to avoid shooting for any particular posi tion in the standings. 1 felt that a victory total would give us some thing to work .oward, and if we reach it, we can try for more." (The A's have been winning at a rate that would enahle them to wind up with as many as CO vic tories out of 154 games). tt e had to give up some home run power to improve our de- tenses, Craft elaborates. We had to go for the one run advantage, to use our sp.ed. try the hit-and-run, stretch hits for extra bases. Sometimes the boys would get thrrown out. But many times they succeeded, 't is exciting base ball and they like it. "We lacked left-handed hitting power. We had to make some trades. We gave up good men. but we got what we wanted and now we have he'ter balance. The other teams no longer can set their pitching staffs for us. The other pitchers no longer can pitch around Cerv. Our trades are be ginning to pay off." Trading has become almost a hobby with A's owner Arnold John son. Since he brought the club here from Philadelphia ifl 1954 the Athletics have made 200 moves on Ihe major league level including players obtained by purchase or trade and players sent away I raft seldom will discuss indi- vidul players, tut he concedes that the cases of Carver and Dick son merited attention The 33-year-old Garver. once a 20-game winner, was shuffled off to Kansas City by Delroit after a miserable 1956 jeason in which his record was 0-2 Many. thought he had an incurable sore arm. His record here last vear was an un impressive 6-12 but the arm healed last winter and Garver is now the team's winningest hurler. Dickson. 42 on August 21. was discarded by the St. Louis Cardinals last year because of arm trouble and his age the oldest pitcher in the majors. The A's signed him as a free agent. Now he's a regular starter with an impressive earned run average. We knew Garver could win again if his arm got well." says Craft. "We just had faith in him. But DicKsnn has been a surprise. I think it's because he's an old campaigner who only knows one way to play plr.v to win. "I've been pleased with the way the team has plated. Ii we can keep the same spirit and avofl serious injuries the rest of the season, we shou'd wind up with a good year." at the afternoon meeting was a plan to maintain an organized staff of officials to referee athletic contests for members of the now- dead PCC. Seaborg declined to discuss details. Seaborg said there was no talk of formation of a new conference among members of the old group Friday night, however, he had told the Associated Press a new ath letic alliance definitely will be tormed. He said the group would be smaller, patterned after the Ivy League and based upon a gentle men's agreement." Seaborg said the new group will be formed within a year and will include Cal ifornia, UCLA, Southern Califor nia. Washington and Stanford. These schools with the excep tion of Stanford were the ones fined by the conference in a vio lations crackdown beginning in I9.i6. that weakened the league. The faculty representatives, ac companied by the schools' athletic directors, wasted no time in de livering the final blow to the con ference. Stanford representative Rixford Snyder introduced the dissolution motion 25 minutes after the morn ing session started. It was sec onded by Emmett Moore of Wash ington State and passed unani mously "with no discussion," Sea borg said. But it was not until noon that the tall, sun-tanned former chem istry professor told Ihe press with a half smile, "I have a minor res olution to read." The resolution to distribute the assets according to the existing conference formula of 5 per cent to Idaho and 11.87 per cent to each of the other eight conference members was introduced by the University of Washington and sec onded by Oregon State. It w a s passed, 8-1, with only Idaho voting no. Bernard Hammcrbeck, acting conference commissioner, esti mated about $175,000 would re main in the treasury after the conference obligations have been met. The treasury has been increased in recent years by Rose Bowl re ceipts withheld from Washington and three California schools Cal ifornia. Southern Cal, and UCLA as penalties for violations of conference rules. Before the resolutions were read, Seaborg. Hammerbeck. Moore and Athletic Director Leo Harris of Oregon the conference press committee joked with newsmen about a black wreath placed on the table at the press session. Propped in the middle of the: wreath was a black-edged card which read "P.C.C. 1916-1958." I Asked if there were anv tears shed as the dissolution motion was passed, Seaborg said, "I didn't see any, hut I am sure there was j some feeling."

Thus the boat financed by a syndicate of Spokane, Wash., hy droplane fans was the 13th to qual ify. Three others made multiple efforts but none could grab a rung on the qualifying ladder. Five noats still were in the pits Saturday morning, their owners and drivers growing anxious. They faced the necessity of qualifying by 5 p.m. to earn a berth in the o-mile argument for the con tinent's top speedboat trophy. , Sunday's first heat will be run in two sections. Should two more make the 95 mileper-hour quali fying minimum Saturday, the first heat wiil have to be run in three sections. Race rules permit no more than seven boats in any one dash. Three probably will make it; all five could. Things looked sour Saturday for a pair of candi dates, however. Bob Gilliam's Fascination tried twice to qual ify Friday and could not reach 95 mph. Lyle Parks' Miss Sam- mamish has not gotten on t h e course for a qualifying try. Both are Seattle boats. Gale V, a Detroit candidate driven by Bill Cantrell, made no effort to qualify but took a few practice turns around the course. She could be No. 14. The Breathless II of Lake Tahoe and the Miss Bardahl of Seattle were coming back to try again Saturday after repeated conk-outs tnday. Bardahl has blown so many superchargers her owner. Ole Bardahl, says he thinks he'll start manufacturing them. Miro Slovak drove her on the course twice Friday and twice was towed back to the pits. Carburetion and spark plug trouble has beset the Breathless. Driver Jay Murphy had her on and off the course several times and twice made qualifying attempts. Each time he went two laps and lost his power on the third. Murphy was only a quarter of a mile from the finish of his sec ond try when his engine coughed, flamed and quit.
