HKRALD AND NKW'S. Klamath Kails. Ore Fridav, April 1. IflfiO PAGE 3 B Today's Sport Parade Giant Fans Certain; Or, April Fools Mob By OSCAR FRA1.KY SAN FRANCISCO HTH-This Is. (he year and the ctiiy for il 1 hat everybody in San Francis co is certain that the Giants arc Wing to walk off with the Nation al League pennant. So let's look at one April Fool's observations on the impending conflict in what is affectionately relerred to as the national pas time. To whit: The Milwaukee Braves will spoil all these nice bright San Francisco dreams in the National League while, over in the rival American circuit, the Chicago White Sox will drive home the fi nal spike in the hier of Yankee dynasty. Mantle Aaron MR Leaders Mickey Mantle and Hank Aaron will capture the respective home run championships. Harmon Kille brew of Washington will be hotter than a $25 mink stole and for two months threaten Babe Ruth's rec ord. Rut he and such as Rocky Colavito. Dick Smart of Pitts burgh and F.ridic Mathews of the Braves finally will succumb to the big two. Willie Mays will salvage some thing for the Bay Area in winning the batting title, and most valu Unbeaten Narrowed SAN FRANCISCO (LTD Defending champions in the three weight divisions remained undefeated today as the national AAU wrestling championships moved into their final session. Heavyweight champion Bill Kcrslakc, a 2!H)-pounder from Cleveland, docisioned Pat Lovell of Cal Poly; Frank Rosenmayr of the San Francisco Olympic Club decisioned Jim Mills of the Los Angeles Y.MCA in the 1(11 pound clarts: and Louis Giani of the New York Athletic Club drew with Lee Allen of Portland's Mult nomah A.C. . There were fwo upsets Thurs day. Newton Copple, 147-pound champion of Lincoln, Neb., was decisioned by Frank Bettuci cf the New York A.C; and San Francisco's Ben Northrup, 147- pound Greco-Roman champ, was decisioned by Mario Tovar of Mexico. Scoring is figured on the "bad point" system. The winners get no points for a fall, one point, for a decision, while a draw is worth two points. A loser gets three points on a decision and four on a fall. A wrestler is eliminated when he picks up six points. Thursday's results: Montreal Six Taking Rest CHICAGO (AP) The Montreal Canadiens, having swept four straight from Chicago, are going to gel a well-earned rest before resuming competition in the Stan ley Cup hockey playoffs. Seeking an unprecedented fifth straight championship, the Cana diens will be idle until Toronto and Detroit determine the out come of (heir semifinal series. The Canadiens, who finished first in the Notional Hockey League, blanked Chicago 2-0 Thursday night. Goalie Jacques Plantc scored his second straight shutout both in the Chicago Stadium over the third-place Hawks. Detroit and Toronto, tied at 2-2 In their best-of-seven scries, re sume play Saturday night in To ronto. They'll play again Sunday in Detroit and, if necessary, Wednesday in Toronto. The Hawks, shut out 4-0 last Tuesday, put up a better battle Thusday night but bowed as Claude Provost and Dickie Moore pushed through second-period goals. The big hero for Montreal, how ever, was Plante. Ably assisted by his defensemen, Plante turned back 25 Hawk scoring attempts, 10 in the final period when Chi cago went all out to gain victory. The Sportsman's Hotel Invites You! FREE Smorgasbord and Dinner! (Special Meat) Saturday - April 2nd from 7:30 on Public Invited! SPORTSMAN HOTEL Tuleloke, California able player honors, by outhitting Hank Aaron ol the Braves and Willie McCovcy of the Giants. Mantle, driven as much by the desire for the big blue chips as for a Yankee title, will outlast Harvey Kuenn of Detroit and Pete Runnels of Boston on the other side of the baseball tracks. Banks, Skowrnn For Rill's When it comes to driving in the base runners, luck to Krnie Banks of the Cubs and Bill Skowron of t he Yankees. Banks will whisk it away from Orlando Cepeda of the Giants and Frank Robinson of Cincinnati while Skowron, if he stays healthy, grabs it away from Rocky Colavito for Cleveland and Minnie Minoso of Chicago. That creaking old galler named Warren Spahn will find a few days off here and there quite wel come and thereby wind up as the National League's leading pitcher over such as teammate Lew Bor dello and Sandy Koufax of the Dodgers. Bob Shaw of the White Sox, aided by added power, will be the American League's big winner over Early Wynn. Pancho Herrera of the PI will be the National League's rookie of the year while the American , League "if" should he live up to expectations Yankee southpaw Bill Short.

Brave Boss Speaks Ex-LA Coach Claims Milwaukee Should Have Won Last Season BRADKNTON. Fla. (API 'Till tell you what I think about the Dodgers. I'd like lo play them 154 games." Chuck Drcssen. Milwaukee's new manager, was speaking. As he was a coach (or the world champion Los Angeles Dodgers last year, his ideas are worth re pealing. "I thought Ihe Milwaukee club should have won last year," he said. "I thought it was a better club than the Dodgers. But 1 didn't tell the Los Angeles players that. "They won only Hit games and look it all. 1 won't guess how many it will take lo win it this year, but if a couple of our pitch- s wind up 20-8 and 18-li we'll be better than when they each won 21 and lost 15 last year." Drcssen was talking abuul War ren Spahn and Lew Burdette who started a total of 75 games last year when the Braves tied the Dodgers and lost the pennant in two .straight playoff games. "I've got four pitchers who ought lo win w games. No, I'm not going lo name them. No other club in Ihe league can put oul lour starters like I hat." Bob Olson's Plan Halted PORTLAND (AP) Carl "Bobo" Olson's plans to make a ring comeback in Portland came to a halt Thursday night without a blow being struck. The Portland Boxing Commis sion withdrew approval for two Olson fights, scheduled to take place with Olson under the direc tion of his former manager, Sid Flaherty. Olson formerly was middleweight champion. The commission took the action alter being told that a California manager, Billy Newman, holds an exclusive contract with Olson through June 4. Commissioners said there still is a chance Olson could get clear ed for the bouts. Newman indi cated he would be willing lo'lct Olson fight if Olson will pay him $3,938, which he said was a per sonal debt by Olson, commis sioners said. Finest Wagons On The Market!
