SPORTS By Ed Mullen BULLETIN SPORTS EDITOR The annual All-Star game at Milwaukee next Tuesday, the only time rival American and National leagues can blow off steam towards each other except in the World Series, has already begun to grind up dust. The announcement of teams was merely a day old when both Manager Leo Durocher of the Nationals and Al Lopez of the Americans were on the pan by the fan. They cried that Durocher passed up National league champ Richie Ashburn of the Phils and that he favored Sal Maglie of the Giants by not starting both. Leo answered that the National league has an abundance of left-handed power hitters. It would put his team at a disadvantage to play Ashburn. He'll start left handers Ted Kluszewski, Eddie Mathews, Duke Snider and Don Mueller. Durocher said he talked the matter over with league President Warren Giles. "We felt that we had to have some right-handed power on the team to win," said Leo. As for the Maglie issue, Durocher answered critics with: "I went along entirely with the consensus of the other managers on the pitching staff. I did not pick the pitchers myself." Cleveland's Lopez, the American league All-Star skipper, was bombarded for passing Yankees' First Baseman Bill Skowron while picking six of his Indians. "It was my choice to make," said Lopez. The Cleveland players Lopez picked were Pitchers Early Wynn and Herb Score, Infielders Bobby Avila and Al Rosen and Outfielders Larry Doby and Al Smith. The trend of the past couple of seasons continues with National league power matched against American league pitching... The Nationals are loaded with a powerful reserve force of such as Stan Musial, Willie Mays and Gil Hodges on the bench... You hold me, pal! The bench yet FLURRY OF ALBACORE SLACKENS FOR LOCALS Anaheim fishermen reported slim pickings as far as albacore were concerned in the weekly charter trip of the boat "Andale", skipped by Phil Tozer out of Norm's Landing. However, none came home empty handed as the kelp fishing proved fairly plentiful. INDY LOOP Ador Corporation Still Tough Rive The Ador Corp. continue move in the City Ind League as they walloped Y Housemovers, 22-8, last. The winners collected 14 three of them home run Salazar, Martinez and Plote. Kwikset Locks carried many big bats for Delco as they blasted out seven and collected 11 runs in sixth inning encounter, game was called due to the run rule. Robertshaw-Fulton scored 5-3 victory over Dixie Cup, Cal Research toppled Beta, 15-5.

The bench yet FLURRY OF ALBACORE SLACKENS FOR LOCALS Anaheim fishermen reported slim pickings as far as albacore were concerned in the weekly charter trip of the boat "Andale", skippered by Phil Tozer out of Norm's Landing. However, none came home empty handed as the kelp fishing proved fairly plentiful. Highlight of the most-recent trip was an unusual catch: It was a Chinook salmon weighing 25 pounds and hauled in by Paul Lohr. With barracuda, salmon grouper and calico bass hitting the bait, all fishermen had good catches to show for their combined good day's work. Those making the trip each week include Sam Landa, Lloyd Trapp, Tony Bouck, Bob Williams, Gramp Roquet, Mick Gregg, Vic Peltzer, Bill Hunstock, Bill Hicks, Lohr, Dr. James Cummins and Gail Vary. Chit Chat... The Del Mar Turf club will distribute more than a million dollars in purses and stakes during its 40-day racing session opening July 27... Don't forget the Anaheim Izaak Walton meeting tonight where Warren Broad will be installed new president. LYNX WANTED TO SEE—AND THEY SAW The Buena Park Lynx were anxious the other night to see the Phoenix Queens, a newly-admitted associate member of the Pacific Coast Women's Softball League. The Queens were a group of former pros and the Lynx wanted to see whether or not they still measured up... The question was quickly decided when the Queens shutout the Lynx, 3-0. "We saw, all right," said Marion Harvey. "They not only played like old pros, but had a good balance of youngsters to relieve the pressure." Art Bielefeld of Anaheim, a pitcher for Stockton in the California League, has improved muchly and now has a 3:2 record. Last week, Art won one game and worked in two for a total of 14 innings. He gave up 19 hits, walked one and fanned 11... Joe Potts of Buena Park, a catcher for Elmira in the Eastern League, has been having trouble at the plate as indicated by his .109 average. It might be added that Joe isn't working regularly which doesn't help an average at all. GRUNION MAY LAST THREE DAYS (Special from OCNS) Grunion made the first July appearance Wednesday night when the silversides swarmed on the many southland beaches to spawn. The grunion are expected to hit the beaches three more nights, with the run winding up Sunday morning. The grunion come ashore on sandy beaches only at night. And where it is fairly dark to spawn. The grunion spend their entire lives near the beaches and make their runs during the eggs remain alive and buried in the sand from two weeks to a month and are washed out to sea due to the action of the tide. The baby grunion develops and lives near the shore. The silver-sides will live from one to three years and grows to about five or six inches. Tonight the fish are expected to hit the beach 11:15 and stay until 12:15. Friday the run will start at Midnight and last until 2:13.

Entrance ABOARD THE USS GRESHAM, At Sea UP—The 100-foot schooner Ramona threatened to grab the lead from the Morning Star today as the two battled almost neck and-neck in the Transpacific Yacht Race to Honolulu. The sailing crafts, two biggest in the race, were battling for the lead some 475 miles out of the starting point of San Pedro, Calif. The Ramona, from the St. Francis Yacht Club of San Francisco, pulled to within five miles of the Morning Star, of Los Angeles, and threatened to close the gap at any time. The Morning Star is flagship of the 51 sailing craft in the 2250-mile race. The Ramona is the scratch boat in the handicap race and would have to cross the finish line at Diamond Head some five and a half hours ahead of the Morning Star to defeat the latter entry in Class A. Commodore Richard Rheem informed his Coast Guard cutter by radio that it was possible the first boat to finish might break his Morning Star's record of 10 days, 10 hours and 13 minutes for the crossing. With handicaps ranging from zero for the Ramona to almost five days for the 36-foot Sea Mist, the 48-foot ketch Eluthehere from Seattle was unofficially conceded to be slightly ahead of her handicap of three days, four hours and some minutes. She was in sixth place in yesterday's noon check position. In third place in boat-for-boat position was the 72-foot yawl Escapade. She was being trailed by Frank E. Hoykass' school Constellation. Next in line was the Queen Mab from the Cata lina Island Club. The sloop Bagatelle, from the Los Angeles Yacht Club, reported yesterday she had blown out her Genoa job, but was not in trouble and was continuing. The sea was rough with winds o 25-miles-an-hour.
