He was crowned king at the tro phy banquet held in the clubhouse following his 4-3 victory over Carl Woods. 1 The morning battle was as fine a golf match as anyone would want to see. Woods scored 35-38 or a 73 medal score against Noel's 37-37, 74 medal and held a one-up mar gin in match play after the morn ing round. The afternoon round saw Elliott Faces New Pro Bid NEW YORK AP - Herb El liott's decision of whether to turn professional foolracer something ss rare as a three-legged horse- could have worldwide repercussions. The fastest miler , in history 13:54.5) is mulling over a $250,000 offer by American promoter Leo Leavitt in his home in lar-ott Aus tralia. When Leavitt first attracted at tention by making his offer to El liott, the obvious question was: Who is he going to race? That was settled today. Wee Santee. barred by the Amateur Athletic Union for accepting ex cessive expense money, is ready and willing to meet him. Santee said at his Lawrence, Kan., home that he has been working out with just such an idea in mind. Can Leavitt make good his of for to Elliott? A quarter of a million dollars is a lot of money. Leavitt says he thinks he could pack stadiums on the West Coast and realize a healthy return for himself. If he gels Santee in the show, that's highly possible. However, professional track and field never has gone over anywhere in the world before. If Elliott should decide to turn pro, it could lead to the breaking of the "amateur trust." Never be fore has a top runner at the peak of his career deserted the ama teurs. Elliott is 20 and has a long way to go. Noel continue his steady play while Woods began to falter. At the end of 27 holes Noel held a 4-up edge which he maintained, finally clos ing Woods out on the 33rd hole.

Cardinal Shakeup Expected PHILADELPHIA (AP) A shakeup of the St. Louis Cardi nals all the way from dugout to front office is all but an accom plished fact. The Associated Press has learned. The key figures in the sweepin; changes (hat seem inevitable- Birdie Tebbetls and Solly Hcmus spoke guardedly of their future. But some confirmation of what seems to he in the wind came to day from the Philadelphia Phillies headquarters. Hemus. the reports have it, will replace Fred Hutchinson as the Redbirds' field manager. Hemus, 34, a former Cardinal, is the vet eran infielder who has been as dvnamic as any man on the last- place Phillies squad this season. i Tebbetts. who recenly quit as manager of the Cincinnati Red legs, will team up with Vaughan iBingl Devine as co-gencrat man ager but without a formal title. As further told by well-posted sources, another front office berth would be made tor a man wnn baseball savvy, a man now with another major league club. His job would be to help Devine. who in turn would move up higher in Ihe administrative scale. Obviously smarting over the club's poor showing this season. Cardinals President August Busch is represented as convinced at last that seasoned baseball men are better able to improve the for tunes of ball clubs than is a hier archy of veeps at the brewery. Busch. by report, has himself approached" Hemus. Tebbetts and the third man, whose name is withheld. Roy Harney, Phils general man ager, said the Cards have asked to dicker with the club for Hemus' managerial services. He added that the Phils arc ready to grant permission, but lhat they mean to demand suitable nlavers in trade. Hemus. commemea: ine siuiy is news to me. 1 aon i Know any thing more than 1 hae read in the papers. "Sure. I'd love to manage Ihe Cardinals. Who wouldn't? It's the dream of every major leaguer to manage in the big leagues. Tehhells. sneaking from his home in Nashua. N.H., acknowl edged that he will be back in base ball next vear as an executive would not say. however, whether he had been negotiating with the Cardinals for any kind of job. Braves Nearer To Flag By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The Milwaukee Braves' magic number is going down, and Richie Ashburn's is going up. The Braves, closing in on a re peat National League pennant, re duced the clinching combination to four by whipping Los Angeles 8-3. Ashburn, riding a hot streak in a bid for his second batting title, pushed his average to .343 as Phil adelphia rapped St. Louis 6-2 last night. Those were the only games scheduled in the NL. None were played in the American League. Any combination of four Milwau kee victories and - or defeats by the second-place Pittsburgh Pi rates will make the Braves the only club other than the Dodgers to pin pennants back to back in the NL since 1944. The Braves had to rally in their final game of the season series with Los Angeles, won by the Dodgers 14-8. A five-run seventh inning, with two runs unearned, did the job. Joe Adcock batted in three runs for the champs, hitting his 19th home run in the fourth inning to cut the Dodger lead to 3-1, and then adding a two-run single in the seventh. Bob Rush 19-6) was the winner relief, with southpaw Fred Kipp (6-6) the laser. Ashburn, setting a Phillie record for games played with 1.631. belt ed a triple and single in live at- bats. That put him .005 points ahead of the Cards Stan Musial out with a leg injury- Willie Mays of San Francisco is third at .335, with Hank Aaron. 2-for-3 for the Braves after going hit less in eight at-bats, fourth al .333. Jim Hegan was 3-for-4. with a pair of doubles, and drove in two runs for the Phils as Robin Rob erts (16-13) tossed a seven-hitter against loser Wilmor Mizell 1 10- 12). Irv Noren hit his third homer for the Cards. Owls, Pelicans Face Weekend Grid Battle The Oregon Tech Owls open their 1958 football season and the Klamath Union Pelicans kickoff their home grid schedule in fea tured football play here this week. Coach Rex Hunsaker's OTI Owls travel to Salt Lake City to meet Westminster College in a Satur day game. Andy Knudsen's Peli cans of KUHS seek to rebound from last Friday night's 47-0 trim ming handed them by Marshfield here Friday at Modoc Field when they host South Eugene. Oregon Tech draws the toughest assignment ot the two. The long trip to Salt Lake, plus the fact that Westminster is regarded as one of the leading college inde pendent football powers in the Joe Adcock Leads Braves Pre -Season Poll Tabs Ohio State OTI Backers Hear Reports Owl Hoot members received a rundown on what the Oregon Tech Owls expect to face in their open ing football game against West minster, Saturday at Salt Lake City, and also a preview of what is to come in the 1958 Oregon Collegiate Conference at their weekly dinner meeting Monday night at the Winema Hotel. Tech backlield coach Ralph Carr informed the boosters thatl Westminster has a very large and rugged ball club, using a good power-running attack. The OTI ssistant coach pointed out that al though the Owls are big this year, Westminster s smallest start er weigh 175 pounds and he is the "small" quarterback. A special guest at the booster club meeting was Carl Guff, sports writer from the Oregon Journal in Portland. Guff gave the Owl Hoots a brief glance at the prospects of other OCC mem bers and indicated Southern Ore gon College, the defending cham pion, will again be the team to beat. The Portland scribe, who serves as the athletic news direc tor of the conference, said the OTI Owls and Portland State Col- lego Vikings look to be the most improved teams and could finish very high in the final standings. The booster club members un dertook a ticket sale plan lo help the Owls football and all-sports season ticket. The all-sports season ticket, is selling for $12.50 and at last night's meeting, the boosters decided to place a football season- ticket on sale for $6. Vice President Eslin Kigcr re minded the group of next Mon day's annual "Ladies Night" meet ing with all Owl Hoots and wives invited. This program will be the official kickoff to the 1958 OTI ath letic program. MILWAUKEE (AP) Big Joe Adcock, a part-time first baseman and some-time left fielder, has suddenly become of potential full- time value to the pennant bound .Milwaukee Braves. There is a possibility that "The Hoss" will see duty at both posi tions in the World Series, assum ing the National League leaders maintain their present course. I wouldn't hesitate to use Ad cock in left field in the series," Manager Fred Haney said Mon day atter his Braves beat Los Angeles 8-3 with Adcock's help. He s never hurt us out there. Adcock, who prefers lo play first base but has been in left lately in the absence of the in jured Wes Covington, helped the cause by smashing his 19th home run and driving in three runs. He collected three hits to raise his season batting average to .281, In the last seven games which comprise his second sustained tour as the Brave's left fielder Adcock has clubbed the ball at a .462 clip on 12 hits in ,26 trips. His output includes two homers and six runs batted in. If Covington is unable to play in the fall classic. Haney indicated that Adcock would be his No. 1 choice for left, with the veteran Andy Palko in reserve for defen sive purposes. Rocky Mountain area makes the Owls' job loom tough. Westminster has run through 13 straight games without a defeat one game ended in a 0-0 tie. Last year, the Parsons rolled to an 8-0-1 record and was offered a bid to plav in the Mineral Water Bowl, but the school s board of re gents rejected the offer. Westmin ster has most of last year's main stays, including IS lettermen and several outstanding transfers to mold a club many observers feel will be better than the undefeated team of 1957. On the local front, sports fans will get their first look at Klam ath Union High's 1958 Pelican team Friday night. While South Eugene s Axemen are not ranked as high as they were last season, coach Lloyd Amick's Eugene club will be the second tough test in as many weeks (or Knudsen's team. Eugene lost such standouts as al-state quarterback Charlie War ren and all-state end Greg Wille ner among several other starters of last year who graduated in June. In their season opener last Friday, the Axemen bowed 12-0 to a very rugged Bcaverton team, one of the pre-season favorites in the Metropolitan League. Season tickets sales for both the Pelicans and Owls arc still open. The Pelicans are offering four home game lootball tickets for $5. Tickets can he pickeS up at the chamber of commerce or from athletic director Jim Johnson. OTPs ticket sale includes all home athletic events plus a reserved football seat lor the 1958-59 school year. The Owls' all-sports season ticket is selling for $12.50.
