For
Manager Substitute
Loser Hodqes Proves
By OSCAR FRALEY
UPI Sports Writer
NEW YORK (UPI! Gil Hodg
es was additional proof today of;
the baseball conviction that the!
only substitute for lack of play
ers is a new manager.
There are very few instances of
where the manager of a last-place
club ever struck enough homers
or pitched enough low hit games
to win a pennant. None at all, to
be exact.
Yet the managerial manipula
tion game is one of the most
frenzied horse-changing scenes in
sports.
Walter Alston of the Los An
geles Dodgers Is the man with the

you or now.
game. Under the scheme of things
he already long has overstayed
his welcome.
Figures Tell Story
In support of the fire - the-
managcr when - you lull hack
theory, all you have to do is look
at the figures.
In the 10 years in which Alston
has been at the Dodger helm
there have been a total of 66 man
agerial turnovers in tie major
leagues, 36 in the American and
30 in the National.
You could run that to 7B if you
look into account the meander-
ings of the Chicago Cubs. This is
their third year sans manager,
They have been running the show
with a scries of coaches In charge1
from moment to moment and it
comes to about an even dozen
Held leaders minus portfolio.
1 ' Should Offer Hop
Alston's long run should give
'heart to Hodges as he succeeds
Mickey Vernon on the ullra-i
splintered seat which has to be
ridden by anybody who pilots the
Washington Senators. Itccause
there was concern that Gil, being
a "quiet mun," might not have
the brassy drive some believe
necessary to squeeze full produc
tion out of a team.
Alston is one of the quiet breed,
too. Having three years tenure on
any other manager of the moment
he is proof that you don't need
a bullwhip tongue or be a "holler
guy" to last as a pilot.
He has of course had the hired
hands to keep the Dodgers up
there consistently, winning three
flags, finishing second on three
occasions, once third, once fourth
and once seventh in nine com
pleted seasons. Hodges even with
mirrors, hypnotism and prayer
won't be able to come anywhere
near that with the woeful Senator
lack of playing talent.

United States Can Play
Spoiler In Cage Tourney
RIO DE JANEIRO (UPI) -The
United States, one of the pro-
tournament favorites, was ready to
play the role of spoiler today in
an attempt to salvage Its repu
tation in the world amateur bas
ketball championships.
The Yanks have no chance to
win the title, but can prevent
Brazil from clinching the crown
when the two teams meet Satur
day on the final day of the tournament.
Brazil broke a first place tie
with Russia and remained the
only unbeaten squad by turning
back tlie Soviet Union 00-79 in a
near-riotous game Thursday night.
Earlier, the United States finally
lived up to its advance billing by
romping over Italy 101-73 for its
third triumph in five games.
Only tlie United States is now in
a position to stop the Brazilians
from completing a perfect six
game sweep, and if they are suc
cessful they can leave the door
open for cither Russia or Yugo
slavia to create a deadlock.
Yugoslavia is solid favorite
to defeat France tonight and
boost its record to 4-1, the same
as Russia's. The two Soviet bloc
nations then meet on Saturday
wiih the winner having a chance
at tlie championship should the
United States upset Brazil.
Brazilian coach Togo Soares
engaged in several vehement ar
guments with referee Julio San
chez Padilla of Uruguay Wednes
day night and was ejected from
the game at the start of the sec
ond half for his aggressive atti
tude. The capacity crowd of 25.-
000 greeted this with a barrage
of smoke bombs, colored stream
ers and coins.
Brazil could muster only a 43-
42 halftime lead, but after another
vantage at intermission against

But much of the spotlight will
be on a couple of athletes repre
senting other schools. Brian Stern
berg of University of Washington
is one of the world's greatest pole
vaulters and held the world re
cord at 16 feet, 5 inches for a
few hours earlier this spring.
Dave Weill of Stanford is the
NCAA discus throwing champion
and is about ready to take a
crack at the 200-foot mark.
But the Trojans have the bal
ance of power. They have such
outstanding men as Rex Cawley
in the 440 dash and hurdles; Julio
Marin, ace three - milcr; Brian
Polkinghorne and Bob Pierce, who
could finish one-two in the
hurdles: and Lew Hoyt, the seven
foot high jumper.
Among the other oustanding con
tenders for crowns will be Harry
McCalla. Stanford's great milcr:
Dave Archibald, California quar-ter-milcr:
and the incomparable
C. K. Yang of UCLA.
Yang, who holds the world re
cord in the decathlon, has a sore
back, so he'll probably pass up the
pole vault, where he has cleared
16 feet.
But he plans to compete in the
javelin, high hurdles. 220 or 100
yard dash, the broad jump and
lead off for UCLA in the mile
relay.
The weather forecast is for cool
and cloudy. However, there is no
rain anticipated.
