UPI Telephoto Gabe Paul Leads Campaign On Game CLEVELAND, Ohio (UPI I President Gabe Paul of (he Cleve land Indians led a growing cam paign today to return the All Star game to the fans. By their votes, baseball fans throughout the country used to dictate the make-up of the two All-Star teams until 1958 when the players took over the balloting. There has been increasing dis satisfaction over the present sys tem, not only among the fans, but also among some of the players. The sentiment now is to "give" the game back to the people who actually pay the freight the fans. "I think it was a mistake to take it away from them in the first place," said Paul, who was PCI Swell To 12 Teams Discussed SPOKANE (UPD-The possibil ity of the Pacific Coast Baseball League expanding to 12 teams Mas discussed Monday at a meet ing of league directors. But expansion could come only with full working agreements with major league clubs, according to President Dewey Soriano. Soriano said the possibility of expansion arose when it was learned that . the International League, which is presently oper ating under a 10-team setup simi lar to the Pacific Coast League, was interested in returning to an eight-team operation. . Vancouver and Sacramento, for mer members of I lie PCL, were discussed as possible candidates for a franchise along with sev eral other cities which Soriano re fused to name. Officials of the Dallas - Fort Worth, Denver and Oklahoma City franchises in the loop said they would not be interested in return ing to the presently inactive American Association. There had been some talk that the triple-A league might become active again. Soriano said (hero still ;- a re mote possibility of a playoff be- ; tween the PCL champ and the ; pennant winner of the Inlornation al League. The PCL directors met here prior to the All Star game bo tween the Spokane Indians and top players from the league's other nine teams. IM Sr .

"I think the present system o! voting actually hurts the All-Star game," Paul said. "The players cast their votes and the results of their balloting arc, announced shortly before the game itself is played. There's hardly any pub licity on the game at all this !' 'Under the old system, where by the fans voted, it took about three weeks, the ballots were tabulated in the nation's newspa pers each day, there seemed to be more competition for each po sition on the team, and 1 think it added a great deal to the inter est in the game." The system was junked aft er the 11157 season, during which Cincinnati fans "stuffed" the bal-! lot boxes and succeeded in nam ing seven Ited starters and Stan Musial of the Cardinals to t h e National League team. Succeeded up to a point, that . Annoyed by the obvious chau vinism of Cincinnatians, Commis sioner Ford Frick cancelled out two of the lied starters that year Gus Bell and Wally iPost and substituted Willie Mays of the Giants and Hank Aaron of the Braves. Paul was general manager of the Reds at the time, and al though he had no actual part in the landslide of Cincinnati votes by the fans, he had to assume partial responsibility since he had handy ballots printed up with the names of Iteds players on them. Schoendienst's Career Ends ST. LOUIS (UPD The play ing career of lormer National League star second baseman Ited Schoendienst presumably came to an end Monday when the St. Lou is Cardinals announced they had planned to give him his uncondi tional release. However, the 40-year-old Schoendienst will be retained as a coach on manager Johnny Kcanc's staff, the position in which he started the season with the Ited Birds. In addition, the Cardinals said they have oallcd up inficlder-out fielder Gary holb, who is batting .318 for Tulsa, to replace the vet eran infielder. Schoendienst was reactivated about two weeks ago for use as a pinch hitler, and in five trips to the plate this season went hit less. 1 , w Km, k --. HERALD AND NEWS, Klamath Odds On A Nicklaus Win In British Open Drop LYTHAMST. ANNES. England (UPD The odds on Jack Nick- laus winning the British Open shortened from 7-1 to 51 today for two reasons. First, Nicklaus has been hitting the ball "out of sight" in prac tice rounds for the start of the 72-hole event W ednesday and, sec So. 6th efeats South Sixth Street Oxygen's team gained on the leaders of the South Suburban Babe Ruth League Monday night with an 6-3 victory over nigged Town ana Country while Pacific Co-op had to strug- !c to drop K.C. Paint, 11-10. The Oxygen men had to rally for the victory because Town and Country jumped on starter Don D'Olivo for three runs' in the first inning before Tom Osa was brought in to put out the fire. He got the win and Ron Nealy took the loss. Steve Witzcnberger led off for the losers on a walk -after one was out. Greg Jones then slammed a triple to score him. Jones scored when Mike Carlson singled him home. Carlson stole second and Nealy singled him home before Steve Clement sin- ed. Nealy and Clement died on base, however, when Osa struck them out. Oxygen came back to tally one in the first when Barry Hackler walked and took second on a wild pitch. Then when two were out, Osa singled to score Hack ler. They rallied to take the lead in the second with three runs. Perry Hackler walked but was cut down on bases when Bill Maxwell was on via the fielder's choice. Frank Cavaretta and D'Olivo walked back-to-back to jam the bags. Barry Hackler struck out but Gary Dalton dou bled to chase three runs home. Three more runs in the fifth put the game on ice. A walk to Dalton, a double by Nolan Fcrrell and a triple by Osa scored two FirJey Told Not Support CLEVELAND, Ohio (UPI) -Kansas City owner Charles Fin ley never formally asked, but was told by the American League any way that there is no chance of his moving the Athletics to Oak land "at this time." Finlcy was made aware of the feelings of his fellow American Leaguers during an informal dis cussion regarding the Kansas City franchise at a meeting of league executives Mondny. While no formal proposal was made, presumably because Fin ley realized it would be voted down, the Kansas City owner did approach Horace Stoneham of the San Francisco Giants 10 days ago with a request that the A's lie permitted to play at Candle stick Park until a stadium could lie built in Oakland. Most of .Monday's discussion, centered around Finley's leasing situation at Kansas City, after which there was considerable talk about Oakland and even some about Atlanta. But at the conclusion ot the two-hour meeting. Finlcy ad- amanlly insisted he had ncversamo way about it.' ' - - '"r - . Vfcv morning dip in the local pool at no charge. The swimming begins at 6:30 every morning and businessmen and women are invited to take part In the healthy program. Falls, Oregon ond, favored Arnold Palmer is battling a heavy cold. Until Monday, Palmer, the pop ular muscle-man from Latrobe. Pa., looked like a shoo-in to win this classic for the third straight year. He still managed to shoot a onerundcr-par 71 in spite of the sniffles and remained the man to beat at 2-1 odds. Oxygen T&C ame runs and Osa tallied on l'erry Hackler's single. The final run came in the sixth when Ferrell tripled in Dalton, Pacific rallied from a three- run deficit in the first Inning to score five in their half of the ini tial frame to go on to victory. The Co-op team added three in the second for an 8-3 lead and struck for three more in the fifth after K.C. Paint had scored twice. K. C. Paint made a game of it with five runs in the sixth inning, but the winners cut the Painters off without a run in the seventh to win. Wayne Begg went the distance for the winners in giving up sev en hits. He walked six but struck out 10 in winning. Ed Johnson was the loser in going the dis tance and allowing 12 hits. Paci fic had seven errors to five for the Painters. Johnson also walked six and struck out It. Ron Steinbock led the winners with a double and three singles for a perfect day at the plate. Greg Cromwell socked a double and single while Don Allen and Rod Clinton each had a pair of sin gles. Johnson was the only hit ter on the losing team to gel two hits, a pair of singles.

Oakland Will A's Presently "formally asked" to transfer the Kansas City franchise "to Oak land, Atlanta or anywhere else." The grey-haired owner of t h e Athletics was telling tlie truth. He never did ask to move, even though there was discussion about Oakland and Atlanta. When Finlcy spoke with Stone ham recently regarding tlie pos sibility of having the A's play in Candlestick Park at some future date, the Giants' owner replied, "We can't stop any team from moving out here. But tlie Giants are the only club that will ever play in Candlestick Park." Commissioner Ford Frick while not taking any part in the discussions about the AtW.'t' i yaid Monday that he considers Oakland "open territory mean ing that a major league club could move there providing R re ceived the necessary three-quar ters majority vote to do so. "I have said repeatedly that I consider Oakland open territory," Frick said, "and I still feel the . 4 Turtday, July t. 196J PAGE 11 However, Nicklaus stole tlie show in Monday's practice round over tlie 6,757-yard Royal Latham and St. Amies Golf Club course. The Columbus. Ohio, "fat boy" was driving 360 yards at some long holes and turned in a siz zling five-under 67. Amazes Britisher Guy W olstcnholme , veteran British golfer who played in the same foursome with Palmer and Nicklaus, was amazed at big Jack's driving. "He left us high and dry," Wol stenholme said. "Jack must have been 100 yards ahead of me at times off tlie tee. He was hitting the ball out of sight." Nicklaus, oddly, hasn't been too happy w ith his form although he lias now shot 70-68-68-67 in practice rounds. "I still don't think the course suits me," he said. "I've been lucky with some of my putts, but I hale scoring 67 s in practice. Cracks Driver Palmer cracked his driver in shooling a 69 in practice Satur day. He patched the club with a special cement before Monday's tuneup but relused to use this as an excuse. "I didn't play very well but the driver was okay only I was to blame, Arnic said. Regarding the head cold that left his eyes watering and affect ed his breathing, Palmer said: I seem to get one of these every time over here but it's not serious."
