Over a hundred exuberant freshmen, sophomores, juniors and seniors turned out in answer to head coach Andy Knudsen's sum mons to appear for physical ex aminations Thursday night at the Modoc Field houste in preparation for the coming season. Two doctors ancf three coaches took better than two and a half hours to check over the returning lettermen and potentials as the opening practice nears. Monday, August 25. the school may begin practice sessions. Today and Sat urday coach Andy Knudsen and sides Jim Inglesby, line coach and Jack Peterson, who has charge of the backfield, will issue gear and Euits to approximately 150 players. Among the lettermen returning to the pigskin wars are backfield men, Don Story, who weighed in at 155, Ron House, at 160, Ron 01- vera, 150 and Blake Griggs, who tipped the beam at 160. House and Story are seniors; Griggs and Olvera, juniors. Returning line veterans included f eniors Nick lnsley 175, Ron Ybar ra 185, Ron Weber 160, Gary Kranenburg 185, Bob Drace 175 and Glynn Michaels at 155. Junior rvearers of the "K" are John Hancock at 200, Estin Kiger at 175 and Bill Santo at 180. Prospective lettermen who should see a lot of action in the back field this year include sopho more Greg Jones, Eddie Mattmil ler, a junior, sophomores Jack Riley, Duane Fitzsimmons, Les Hustead and Cliff Paugh. Mattmil ler worked on the JV squad last season while the rest saw service in the frosh ranks. Coach Jim Inglesby welcomed a number of good-looking line prospects, among which were Dean Dunson who weighs 160, Joe Cox. 180, Rich Moore at 185, Brian Walker, 175, Jerry Herman, a 190 pound junior, and a recent trans fer from California, Dave Baker, who registered 175 on the scales and stands 6-2. Seeming neither overly optimis tic but at the same time not reach ing for the crying towel, the KU coaches and athletic director Jim Johnson adopted more of a "let's wait and see attitude. Each and every one of the coach es were highly pleased with the By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Yakima blanked Tri-City Thurs day night to stretch its Northwest League lead to four games over second place Wenatchee, which lost to Eugene. The Bears may need every large turnout; Johnson is under-1 game they can get. They travel standably a little worried as to to Wenatchee Friday night for a whether the school has enough gear to outfit the large squad but assured all that some arrangement would be made so that everyone would get a fair chance to make the team. New transfers to Klamath Union caught the eye of the coaches but it was not learned at this time what the plans of the newcomers might be. A strong rumor that Bob Peterson, the mainstay of the bas ketball team, had planned to come out for football this fall was an other bright spot on the gridiron horizon. Peterson has gained a good deal of weight over the sum mer and his speed and height could make him a desirable man to have in an end slot. The Pelicans' first game is on September 12, when they trek to Marshfield to do battle with the Millers. The first home game is with Eugene here on September 19.

"Pitrhine is lareelv the answer- to what's happened to the two clubs so far this season," said Al during a chat in the dugout be fore Thursday night's game with the New Yorkers at Yankee Stadium. - ! He explained: "The Yankees got off to a good start because their pitchers were doing much better than expected. But our start was bad because our pitching was so far off par.

In florida training, Stengel was worried about his pitching," Lopez continued. "But the Yanks got off to a flying start. As I recall, Turley won his first seven straight, and Larsen nis nrst live straight. Others were doing well, too, and Kyne uuren proved an unexpectedly fine reliefer. But he's out now with an injured leg, I believe.' The White Sox began to find themselves about July 18 and since then they rose from sixth place to second and pared the Yanks' lead over them from 17 games to 10'i, at the time Lopez was talking. During that surge pitchers Donovan. Moore and Pierce, aided hy reliefers Turk Lown and Gerry Staley were the important factor, he said.

Any state would like to see its best representative reach the regional and national fi nals and the double - elimination idea would go a long way toward making sure that the best club didn't fall by the wayside because of a fluke. ine Dcaraea one, namely me, look an awful blow to the goatee Thursday when he learned that the tiny town of Mount Shasta had beaten Klamath Falls to the punch in providing a Little League base ball park for Its youngsters as community project. Ben Salanti donated the ground and Shasta lumber companies came through with the necessary materials and they are cn their way. Mount Shasta kids wUI play ball in their own regulation park come 1959. I for one, sincerely hope that the same can be said for Klamath Falls in the very near flit '.re . , , and I'm not alone. But, we had better start soon or Malln and Bly will come up with one ahead of us. I don't even know where it Is Is also building one we are told.

Klamath finished in first place with an 11-won, 4-lost mark. As a warmup for their Sunday opener at Gem with Mount Shasta in the first round of President's Cup playoffs, the Kubs will travel to Prineville Saturday for a re turn match against the Prineville team.

Hambletonian Tough On Would-Be Bettors Carpenter Nixes Phil Move Rumor WILMINGTON (AP) Bob Car penter, owner of the Philadelphia Phillies, says there's no basis to a report that his club has negotia ted a deal for a new stadium site. Carpenter, contacted by tele phone at his home here, denied Thursday night that the Phillies were negotiating for 60 acres of property in the vic.rity of Garden State Race Track, across the Dela ware River dlitside Camden, N.J. SCORES SECtfND TRIPLE SALEM, N. H. (UP1 1 Jockey George Gibb scored his second successive triple Thursday at Rockingham Park. NEW YORK (NEA) At any other event involving horses in a race, all the problems come in trying to form a strong opinion. Alter that, a chimpanzee can go through the motions of giving mon ey to the dealer behind the pari- mutuel window. But the Hambletonian harness racing's biggest event is treach erous every step of the way. It will be run August 27 at the Du Quoin. Illinois, State Fair and the problems for a player only start with trying to pick the winner. Even a fair student of form can look over Sharpshooter, with Har ry Pownall, or Record Mat, with Frank Erwin, or Fred Egan's en try of Emily's Pride, the filly, and Gang away and come up with a line. This done, the battle commences. For there is no pari-mutuel bet ting on the Hambletonian there's a state law against betting on fair grounds. And as a downstate Illi nois operative informs by phone, "You got to work to find a book maker 'round here. Last couple of years the state police and the lo cal cops have been developing nasly habits. You open a place and you're dealing baseball or a little horses and one afternoon the cops come around. They don't even bother to ring the bell. They just knock the door down and come in It isn't good. Take a town like Dccalur. They used to have 10 good, bookmakers there. Now they have one guy and he is running so much people think he is training for a track meet someplace. "Last year at the Hambletonian a couple of fellows from East St. Louis and St. Louis were on the grounds and if you knew about them it was fine. But you had to look for them. They weren't just standing there for ail to see. "The place is loaded with state police and the local guys and I don't care what you hear, things are rough around here when it comes to that. The police do not want to be partners with bookmak ers. They only want to arrest them. If a man comes to the race and tries to bet he better be prepared to come early and look hard." Don Hayes, who Is promoting the Hambletonian for the second year now and is looking to hold off bids by other tracks, notably Vernon Downs, N.Y., to keep it in definitely concurs. "If you try hard enough, you probably could get a bet down." he says. "But we don't want book makers on the grounds and the enforcement agencies don't, either. At any rate, they won t be con spicuous. It is inconceivable for the person used to Yonkers or Roosevelt or Bay Meadows or any of the other harness centers, but Hayes says he can make money without a cut of betting on the Hambletonian, pro viding he retains the franchise for a couple of years.
