(UPI) The world champion Los Angeles Dodgers feel it's just a lot of horse opera, but big Don Drys dale insists there is "a possibil ity" he might give up pitching In favor of catching some of those western, outlaws on television. Drsydale has had a taste of TV cling, liked it fine and drew nurprisingly warm notice from the critics. "I'm definitely interested in a clevision career." said the tall" good-looking Dodger right-hander, buttoning his blue windbreaker( After wiiviiig it tuupie uf laps around the outfield. "Look at what it did for Chuck Connors. He's making more mon ey now as 'The Rifleman' than he ever could jjave possibly hoped to as a ballplayer. Frankly, 1 think I like TV acting more than pitching. It's a lot easier. And if the money is ri'ght, you always have to go where' the hand is feeding you." Drysdaip, who studied - radio speech while he was in school, has made television appearances on "Jhe Lawman," "The .Mil lionaire" and at a special benefit with Zsa Zsa Gabor. Television reviewers said he appeared "natural, thoroughly at ease and not - forced." that's more or less his pitching lyle, ton, something the Dodgers are far more concerned with than any iwssibl, future he may have in aront of the TV cameras. Drsydale had a 17-3 record last aeason and thinks it could have been better had he not run out ( gas near the end of the campaign. "Two years ago," he said, stuff ing his glove in his back pocket, "I took it real easy in spring training and got off to a rotten tart. I wound up 12-13 that year.

The distribution of points are 10 for a first, seven for a second place, four points for a third and two tallies for a fourth place. If an entry advances from one divi sion to another $nd is successful, he picks up an additional point. Duncan said he "figures to place between eight and 11 men in the district tourney that should .go to Corvallis." As far as team scores should run in this week's climax. Duncan thinks that Grants Pass and his club shoiSd fare the best. Crater, which is very strong in wrestling this year, had no match with the Whitcbirds who finished the season at 8-3. In league action the Pelicans massacred a weak Ashland crew 51-3. In dual matches with both Grants Pass and Medford. the KU varsity picked up splits. Klamath defeated the Cavemen 22-19, and In later match the GP squad turned around and handed the Pels seem to be on a contented night, The awards wera presented to the athletes compel- right is Ken Cooper who holds So before coming to spring Train ing last year I worked out four days a week.

Umpire Confab Sef An umpires' me-etingas been called by Hi Hatfield for Thurs day cvfcjing In the City Park and Recreation Department at 7 p.m. In the city hall. Hatfield said that all uinplCH for the i Klamath School District, Little League, Babe Ruth League and for otcr summer baseball leagues should attend the meeting- a a 22-20 loss. The Whitebirds downed the Black Tornadoes 35-13 with the Medford team avenging the loss and picking up their first win over Kl'o:n history 24-22. In the 98-pound division Milo Crumrine and Gary Head will represent the Pels. Crumrine, a junior, has won 10 with one draw. His record indicates a first place in the districts. The Cavemen's Lee Rolley looks like a strong choice to nab the 106 weights. Pelican freshman Dave Vetkos has a 1-1 seasonal record on the varsity mat. Gary Leavitt will drop down from the 123 weights into the 115-pnund division for the tournament. Grant Pass' Bob LaCombe v$l be a strong contender for first place. Larry Gibbs will also make the traveling squad for the Pels. Filling in at the 123 weights for the KU matmen will be junior Sherd Duncan who holds a 6-1 seasonal mark: Duncan's roughest competitor will perhaps be Curt Maclntyre of Grants Pass. In the 130's Coach Duncan be lieves that the Klamath Union entry Trenton Douglas "should win if he wrestles heads up." Douglas is a senior with a 7-2 win and loss record. Dan Ross and either sophomores Eric Petersen or Dale Crumrine will represent the Pels in the 136 pound department. Ross suffered a 10-3 decision from the hands of Tornado Gary Fields earlier in the year and will attempt to avenge the setback this weekend. Dave Gonzales holds one of KU's better marks with 8-1-2. Gonzales goal will be to topple Les Hoi brook of Grants Pass who grappled the 141 pounder to a draw this medium at the YMCA Sports- and unlimited basketball dn the Sportsmanship trophy dc down in front of Jiis locker.

You have to hold your hands a certain way and you have to get that gun out all in one motion. It takes hours and hours of prac tice. . ." Big Don demonstrated the draw against the belt of his baseball uniform. For an instant there, a stranger might have thought they went thataway. . USF Mentor Through SAN FRANCISCO (AP) - Phil Woolpert, whose University of San Francisco Dons won 60 straight basketball games and NCAA championships in 1955-56, will coach no more.. Woolpert, 43, has been on a year's leave of absence for health reasons. Now, he says he is resigning for good.

Junior Larry Wishart will be accompanying Gonzales in the same weight division. Steve Shults has never wrestled for the KU matmen on a varsity slate this year. Ken Lewis will be making the trip with him. but again a Grants Passman seems to be the strongest contender. This time it is Gary Stevens of the Cavemen 148 department who will be seeking a berth on the state tourney. Bill O'Neil and Les Husted will represent the Whitcbirds in the 157 division. O Neil holds a 9-1-1 mark. O'Neil's drv came in the second Grants Pass match against Ken Rhoadcs. In the 168 weights the Pelicans are faring very well with junior Art Mills who has an eight-win, two-loss and one-draw record this ycargjDick Ewing of the Pels will seek a placing in the districts The Cavemen's Rich Shorb is a strong contender in the V8 di vision, but the Whitebird's Joe Cox will attempt to uproot him. The Pelicans will really hurt if 191-pounder John Hancock will not be able to make the trip. Hancock has won0his only two matches this year, but whether he makes the trip or not depends on the doctor's decision which comes later in the week. If Hancock should go, he would stand a strong favorite to win his division. Chas. J.
