If sheer numbers and enthusi
asm mean anything Klamath
Union fans are in for a good season
cf Pelican football in 1958 .
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.

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. '
; Although the Yanks were 1014
games ahead of Chicago before
Thursday night's play. Lopez said
he was confident of overtaking
Casey Stengel's outfit "because
since about mid-July our pitching
has returned to normal." where

Meanwhile at least three White
Sox hurlers were zooming: Dick
Donovan with five wins and one
loss; Ray Moore, 40, and Billy
Pierce, 4-2.
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. And they have been
getting good hitting support from
outfielder Jim Landis, as well as
Nellie Fox, Luis Aparicio and

"1 still think we can win the

banking on our pitching just

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.

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.
