SPORTS BOB WICKS, Editor Torrid Twinks Plaster Padres Again; Tie for Third Rung of PCL Ladder By Don THRACKREY SAN FRANCISCO (UP) — The Bibernating Hollywood Stars snapped out of their lethery by a trip to the sunny soulland, return home today to prepare a trap-door welcome mat for the Pacific Coast League leading Oakland Oaks. The Stars hotter than the floor of a blast furnace, mangled Lefty O'Doul's San Diego Padres six times out of seven during the past week and have risen from last place for a tie for third, only a game and a half away from the top spot shared by Oakland Sacramento. The Stars waxed the Padres 12-6 in yesterday's first game and then took a 3-2 decision in the nightcap. Meanwhile Oakland and Sacramento were splitting; Oakland winning from Seattle 11-5 and losing 10-5 and Sacramento dropping a 4-2 game to San Francisco and then winning in 10 innings 2-1. Beavers Back Portland's Beavers got back into the act with two wins from Los Angeles 4-2 and 8-4. Dale Long hit two homers and Jack Phillips one as the rejuvenated Stars won the opener for Lino Domoso by bashing out 15 hits. In the second contest Carlos Bernier scored on a sacrifice fly in the seventh to break a 2-2 deadlock and give the win to Red Munger. Earl Rapp of San Diego had hit Angel homers. Portland won the second contest with four runs in the eighth inning. Sacramento kept pace with Oakland by splitting with the Seals. Bob Dipietro hit a two-run homer to give the Seals the opening contest of the night doubleheader. Catcher Bud Sheely won the second contest with a two-out single in the bottom of the 10th. The score had been tied since the sixth when Nippy Jones doubled in the run that equalized a bases empty home run by Al Lyons in the San Francisco fourth inning.

Anaheim Closed Ten Results Follow Tour Dean Stokes provided the fireworks in an otherwise routine weekend of play in the third annual Anaheim Closed Tennis Championships when he forced second seeded Bill Armstrong to the limit in the quarter-finals of the men's singles before bowing out by a 7-5, 8-10, 6-4 score. A minor upset came in the Girls' 18 years old and under singles when Kathleen Hathaway squeezed out fourth seeded Rita Flynn by a 4-6, 6-3, 10-8 score. In all other matches in the long schedule played off on the City Park courts, ratings of the tournament committee were upheld when seeded players came through without the loss of a set.

Earl Rapp of San Diego had tied it in the sixth with a two-run homer. Oakland got its scores in clusters in the first game with Seattle's Rainiers, five coming in the third and four more in the eighth. Don Ferrarese was the winner despite George Schmees' seventh home run of the year. In the second game it was Seattles turn. The Suds got five runs in the ninth innings of the seven-frame second game to split the contest apart. Oakland used seven throwers and the Rainiers used five. Pete Hernandez was the winner and Bob Murphy the loser. It was the first series loss of the year for the Oaks. Won Twice The Beavers used the home run play to win twice from Los Angeles. Don Eggert, Walt Judnich and Rocky Krasnich hit for the circuit in the opener and then Eddie Basinski hit two in the second game which went an extra inning. Fred Richards in the first game and Dixie Upright in the second ROLLN' ROY — Roy Weaver, who turned two hits and a catcher's error into three runs in three times at bat for the AUHS base CATCH From the published by NATURAL EQUIPMENT Chapter The job of catching, in my estimation, is the toughest assignment on the field of play. It has always been my claim that baseball is played for the benefit of the catcher. By that I mean that he is the one player who has the game squarely in front of him; he faces both the infield and the outfield and also has the base runners in full view. Thus, he is the one player in position to see everything that is going on. For a young player seeking to make good as a catcher, adequate physical equipment is the first requisite. By that I not only mean a sound body, but a good pair of hands and a strong throwing arm. Also, it is necessary to have a cool head, as well as the ability to think quickly. A catcher must be able to take all the knocks that come with his job, day after day; banged-up and broken fingers; the split and bruised hands; the bumping and the cuts from collisions and spikes on close plays at home plate. Aside from nature's equipment, the young player aspiring to success as a catcher cannot be too careful about his choice of equipment—mitt, protector, mask and shoes. All should fit him snugly and comfortably. ROLLN' ROY — Roy Weaver, who turned two hits and a catcher's error into three runs in three times at bat for the AUHS baseball team last Friday against Santa Ana to pace a 6-2 Colonist victory, stands ready to hand Huntington Beach similar treatment tomorrow afternoon in the beach city. The two teams have split previous encounters, the first going to the Oilers, 2-1 and Coach John Wallin's men coping the second, 5-2.

From nature's equip- young player aspir- success as a catcher too careful about use of equipment— detector, mask and should fit him snug- comfortably. a catcher can go to his right as effectively as to his left, that is all in his favor and adds to his value. The catcher should move out in front of the plate when a throw is coming in from the outfield and, whenever possible, receive the ball on the fly. Then the catcher can slide back to the plate with the base runner, keeping ahead of him so as to complete the tag and retire him. In my opinion, this is one of the most effective plays a catcher can make and, from the viewpoint of the fan, one of the best to watch from the stands. Completing this play requires gameness on the part of the catcher. He does not have a bag to touch with any part of either foot, as the first baseman has when he receives a thrown ball from an infielder, or as one of the other infielders has on a force play. Unless the bases are full, making it a force play, the catcher must charge the base runner, who is coming into the home plate at top speed, hitting the ground in his slide, his spikes flashing and with the one thought of knocking over the catcher and scoring his run. On such plays, the catcher is like the fullback on the gridiron buckling line.

Parry O'Brien Sets 62-Foot Goal for Coliseum Relays Parry O'Brien first shot putter to crack 60 feet, today primed for the West Coast Relays at Fresno Saturday as his former coach predicted he would exceed "by far" his 60-foot 5½-inch mark. Southern California Track Coach Jess Morensen said he expected the 22-year old former Trojan to hurl the 16-pound shot "a lot farther before he's through." But Mortenisen said it may take "a good scare" from someone like Sian Lampert of New York's Pioneer Club to help him along. Lamper put the shot 59 feet 5½ inches last week. O'Brien's effort Saturday at the Los Angeles Coliseum bettered one of track and field's long-sought goals. It was the second time in a period of 48 hours a world goal was beaten. Britain's Roger Bannister ran the mile in 3:59.4 Thursday. O'Brien hand incentive for Saturday's performance. Lamper's mark was on his mind and UCLA's Don Vick had eclipsed O'Brien's freshman record with a 54-foot ½-inch toss earlier in the afternoon. "I saw all the records going down the drain, so I went out and heaved it," Obrien said. He said he felt "mentally right" for Saturday's effort. "I knew when the shot left my hand that it would break the record, but I didn't expect it to go that far." O'Brien said he expected to do better. He said he was "posi- PCL Standings By UNITED PRESS W. L. Pet.

Howard, Sales and Service, 130 S. Lemon KE 5-2239 SPORTS PARADE OSCAR FRALEY NEW YORK — Rocky Marciano finally has realized that he is the heavyweight champion of the world. Not that the Rock will ever be another Jack Dempsey. The fabled mauler from Manassas was a "tiger" who went through every training session as if he was fighting before a million dollar house. But Marciano has arrived at the mature point where he demonstrates clearly and concisely to all his sparmates that he is "the boss." Rocky treats his camp in the parental manner of a Joe Louis as he prepares for his June 7 title defense at Yankee Stadium against Auburn Charles. He makes it clear that he wants a good work out but woe be to the animated and ambitious exerciser who gets out of line. A recent case in point was a young man named Eddie Edwa, an off-chore embalmer at Palatka, Tenn., and a pretty tall sort of fighter. Edwards tried to make the champ look bad and suddenly is glad to be back in the personally less lethal business from whence he came. The Rock gave him a hannsome shellacking. As recently as his second bout with Jersey Joe Walcott, Marciano would have permitted his muscle-building employees to take training liberties. While giving his ligaments a tonic at Holland, Mich., for his return with old Jersey Joe, Marciano encountered a problem of this sort. It occurred in the person of young Billy Noble, a former Nebraska football player who was determined to make a name for himself in the Marciano training sessions. Even at that late date, Marciano didn't know quite how to assert himself. Noble boffoed him with disdain and disrespectful precision. Marciano never once exerted himself to the point of putting young master Noble in his "place." That happened the night of the cliano which will give you the general idea of what could have happened to the brash Cornhusker during training. The almost general disdain which this country boy manner of Marciano's generated in previous days can be further exemplified by the case of Tommy (Hurricane) Jackson. The skyrocketing Jackson of recent months—barring April when he received his comeuppance from ignored Jimmy Slade—once advertised in a grandiose manner that he had been run out of the Marciano camp because he was too tough. Anybody who ever has seen Jackson fight cannot believe that he will ever be too rugged for Marciano. Not even on a bad Marciano night which, if the citigens of Brockton will forgive me, can be grievously bad. But in the old days, the country boy from Massachusetts just didn't know how to handle those kind of situations. He does now. When a sparmate steps over the line on current occasions, he is likely to find himself being aroused from his posture: position with a bucket of water in the kisser. This is not to say that Marciano is a Dempsey or a Louis. But as a champion, the Rock will do "til somebody manages to stretch him on the canvas. Because now, finally, he feels "is the "boss."" ORVAL'S It occurred in the person of young Billy Noble, a former Nebraska football player who was determined to make a name for himself in the Marciano training sessions. Even at that late date, Marciano didn't know quite how to assert himself. Noble baffled him with disdain and disrespectful precision. Marciano never once exerted himself to the point of putting young master Noble in his "place." That happened the night of the fight. Marciano "flattened" Jersey Joe in 2:25 of the first round. A character of controversial respect named Oakland Billy Smith completely destroyed Noble with a couple of punches. Oakland Billy is not to be mentioned in the same breath as Mar.
