the Portland pitching staff lifted
Portland into a tie for fifth place
in the Pacific Coast League Thurs
day night. '
Ken Johnson pitched the Port
landers to a 4-1 victory over Se-
attle and into a tie with Vancou

out with Vancouver in a four
game series opening tonight at
Portland.
The Beavers gave Johnson an
early lead Thursday night as Milt
Graff opened the game at Seattle
by walking. He moved up on a
wild pitch and scored- on a single
by Russ Snyder. Jim Westlake
scored Snyder with a double and
Jack Littrell singled Westlake
home for a 3-0 lead.
Portland's other run came in the
fifth. Graff again started things
with a single. He scored on a
double by Snyder.
Seattle meanwhile was pecking
away at Johnson. The losers got
10 hits all told, compared to 6 for
Portland, but Johnson spaced
them well and gave up no walks
at all. As a result Seattle could
score only in the sixth inning on
a single by Harry Malmberg and
a triple by Eric Rodin.

Bashful Handy Andy
To Blossom For SF
Evicted Family
Back In Court
LOS ANGELES (AP) The Are-
chiga family is back in court
this time Superior Court to pro
test condemnation proceedings
which resulted in their eviction
from Chavez Ravine.
A similar suit was dismissed in
federal court because no federal
question was involved.
The family charges the City
Housing Authority's condemnation
of their property was a fraud be
cause the agency had no intention
of using the property for public
housing. After a housing project
plan was shelved, the acreage was
sold to the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Chavez Ravine is being cleared
now for a new Dodger ballpark.
SAN FRANCISCO (UPI)-Andre
Rodgers. a shy guy from Nassau
in the Bahama Islands, is aboul
to blossom forth as a scintillating
shortstop for the San Francisco
Giants.
This lad. who never saw a base
ball game until he was 17 years
old, has all the actions to become
a great fielding shortstop and a
slugger at the plate, say the experts.
And. if he makes the grade as
a star, give the credit to mana
ger Bill Rigney. who displayed the
patience ol a Job in keeping the
24-year-old British subject on the
field when he was causing the
Giants to lose ball game alter
ball game.
"Andre's just nervous tense j-
and he'll get over it," said Kig
ney. "Even after 30 ball games
he still has trouble relaxing.
But Rigney, along with many
other observers, has an idea that
"Handy Andy" is going to be quite
a ball player.
"I like the way he stands at
the plate." said Ty Cobb, the old
Georgia Peach, as he watched the
Giants lose their series to the
Milwaukee Braves.
Says Ernie Lombardi, former
National League batting cham
pion: "He has a picture swing."
Rodgers is batting around ' the
.270 mark which isn't bad for a
rookie. But he made so many er
rors of commission and omission
during the early part of the sea
son that some spectators laughed
right out loud at his antics on
the field.
Now they are pulling as hard
MIXED FOl'RSOMIS
for him as they are for any man
on the ball club.
Rodgers has a sling-shot arm
that is accurate. He is fust in
fielding balls and on the bases.
He is anxious to learn. And he
is most anxious of all to please.
But he lacks the instinct on cer
tain plays that many men have
because they have played the
amc all their lives. These. Rig
ney is sure, will come along in
time.
Rodgers' biggest night came
against the Cincinnati Reds when
lie clouted two homers and
knocked another ball against the
left (ield screen, where it was
caught.
"But sometimes I get very
tense at the plate." he says, "and
1 can't move the bat off my
shoulder.
If the pitcher is wild, this works
fine, as Andre gets a walk and
trots down to first base the per
feet play for a lead-off man.
Many believe that Rodgers has
the quickest pair of hands in base
ball. Still, he has trouble fielding
sometimes because he doesn't
know whether to charge or lay
back on a ball coming at him
"Another year's experience and
he'll be one of the finest," says
Rigney.
