The other four went to undefeated Grant of Portland, which was close on the heels of Klamath iFalls. Grant was only a scant four ?points behind, in third place. " ! There was near-unanimity for Jth'e top three in the poll. Fourth- ;)ace Wilson got one vote (or 5 third place and fifth-place Central JCatholic received a vote for sec - ond. The rest went for the three i favorites. Wilson held to its fourth position ; despite its two-point loss to Grant . last week, and Central Catholic, pleader of the Metro League, V remained in fifth.

It 1 just amazing the way these guys work. Bob Elliott, one of the coaches Rigney has borrowed to help whip the largely unacquainted gang of draftees into a disciplined team, was standing nearby. Yes, I think this Angel outfit, has more potential than Kansas City," the I960 Athletics manager! commented. About the only worry on Rigncy's horizons and a minor one, indeed is a couple of hold outs. When veteran right-handed hurlcr Ned Garvcr came to terms with general manager Fred Haney Monday for an undisclosed salary, the list of draftees who have not yet signed contracts dwindled to two. Haney expects Cuban first-base man Julio Becquer, drafted from Washington, to join the fold in short order, but has apparently given up hope on Bob Davis, a pitcher assigned from the Ath- emetics. Davis, a Yale graduate, wants to complete a master's de grce at Columbia. But with their team's roster al most complete, Rigney and Ha ney don't seem very perturbed about two stray players.
