B-2—Anaheim (Col.) Bulletin Thursday, April 2, 1959 Pioneer Nine Battles Las Vegas Tomorrow Having defeated many of the top baseball clubs in the Southern California area, Coach Roy Merk's Western Pioneers will "branch out" into other states tomorrow as they meet Las Vegas High School at La Palma Stadium. Gametime is scheduled for 3 p.m. with a large turnout of vacationing Pioneer fans expected for the contest. Las Vegas, coached by DeRaye Eyres, will enter the game with a record of two victories and a single defeat. In their sole loss they were knocked off by Gorman High School, while their two victories were over Basic, 6-1 and a narrow 21-8 decision over Boulder. Not Too Strong Eyres, speaking of his ball club, told the Bulletin late today: "We are not an especially strong team." He went on to say that the Wildcats defeated Boulder by their lopsided score principally because of a weak opponent. Eyres, whose team is sparked by the return of nine lettermen from last season's club which won eight and lost seven, reported that the Cats will be "facing some tough competition," so will have to "put up their best effort if they wish to win." Helping to bolster their attack are a number of men who can best be remembered from their showing last season when the "Lost Wages" ball club appeared in a week-end pair at La Palma against Coach John Wallin's Anaheim Colonists. Among these are shortstop Tom Levi, the team's top hitter and Ron Banta, a junior, who specializes in clutch singles. Fast Runner Levi, a speedy base runner, is currently hitting over .500 and is rated as a smooth fielder as well. Old Guar As Mast New schools of yellowtail have also moved along the Orange County coastline from The Barn up to Salt Creek. They are not the small yellows that have been around for some time, but are the larger ones going from 14 to 25 pounds each. In Kelp Beds The yellowtail are also in the kelp beds, and are very hard to hook without live squid, their favorite bait. Live squid at the present time is hard to get, as it comes from Catalina Island, and that is quite a way to go for the bait boats. The Balboa Pavilion will have live squid until Wednesday and then on the week end, they will have plenty of live squid for the private boats. The Anglers who went out to San Clemente Island the past few days had little to talk about as the fish were very spooky and just wouldn't take the bait. There were a few white sea bass and some yellow-tail around, but the anglers were very disappointed in the results of a days fishing. Main Reason The main reason for our excellent fishing this year, can be attributed to the warm water that we have enjoyed all winter. The water has been very warm with the lowest temperature of the year being around 60 degrees. At the present time, the water temperature is 63 degrees. This is about five degrees higher than the usual temperature, at this time of the year. In checking over the water temperatures for the past 10 years for the month of March, I found out that the anglers were having fish in waters from 58 to 59 degrees, and the fish they were catching - local bottom fish.

PETERSON UPI Sports Editor AUGUSTA, Ga. (UPI) — Golf's old guard, including Sam Snead, Jafkie Burke, Cary Middlecoff and grand-pappy Jimmy Demaret, attracted added support when brisk winds were forecast for the start of play today in the Masters tournament. A field of 88, made up of 19 amateurs and 69 professionals, was scheduled to tee off at approximately 10 a.m. for the first they will receive an opportunity to show the reason for this to the visiting Wildcats. However, they will be meeting a team with a good deal of speed and a squash which also will run at a moment's notice. The contest figures to be a real interesting encounter. Following the Western fray the Nevada ball club will meet Anaheim's Colonists in a single affair Saturday. Gametime there is slated for 11 a.m. of the four rounds which will decide the winner of the tournament started by Bobby Jones 25 years ago. When word got around that windy weather was predicted for today's first round, the odds-makers installed Snead, a three-time winner of the Masters, as the favorite at 5 to 1, dropping young Ken Venturi, the original choice, down to 6-1. Snead is used to the winds which often sweep the Augusta National Golf Club course and so are Burke, Middlecoff and Demaré et. Demarest, who is the only golfer besides Snead who has won this tournament three times, is regarded as the best wind player in the game. The forecast also increased the chances of defending champion Arnold Palmer, also regarded as one of the better players when breezes engulf the course. Palmer, however, still was listed as an 8-1 shot along with Middlecoff and Ben Hogan. Demarest, along with Art Wall and Billy Casper, were 10-1 while Burke was 12-1. Ike Undertakes Big Project; Seeks First Division for Nats WASHINGTON (UPI) — President Eisenhower today set himself a task more difficult than balancing the budget. He promised to root Washington's baseball Senators into the first division. At an annual White House ceremony, the President received his annual gold pass to American League games. But he told the baseball delegation it looked like he would miss the opening game day here April 9 between the Senators and the Baltimore Orioles. American League President Joe Cronin reported that Eisenhower told him his appearance on opening day was "rather indefinite" but if he missed the opener he would "try to get out as often as possible during the season." The President told the baseball delegation that he expected to go to Augusta, Ga., next Tuesday, and remain there on his annual spring golf holiday until April 13. Official developments may cause a shift in plans, he said. As for the upcoming season and the home team, Cornin said "the President hopes the Senators improve themselves in the standings so he could go out and root for them." Since Eisenhower took office in 1953, the perennially maladroit Washington club has seldom turned in a record to warrant Eisenhower's frequent attendance. In the six seasons during which Eisenhower has been in the White House the Senators have finished fifth, sixth, eighth, seventh, eighth Hero Score, the blazing handed star of two years at the club's main worry.

Only club employees see them better than seventh this season. Cronin said Eisenhower displayed an intimate knowledge of the Washington club and its problems.

(UPI)—Frank Lane is shuffling the Cleveland Indians like a riverboat gambler presses the pasteboards and hopes to come up with something approaching a royal flush. In his latest move to get a winner, the Lane traded Larry Doby to Detroit for outfield Tito Grancona. Thus died a plan—if there ever was one—to start the season with Doby playing first base instead of the outfield while Power shifted over to third. Grancona also can play some first base but it looks as if Power will be on the initial bag when the season begins. Lane really has worked the curve over since coming to the club. A total of 8 outfielders and pitchers on the roster at this time last spring are gone. Manager Joe Gordon thinks that Lane’s “operation shakeup” will pay off. LOOKS FOR IMPROVEMENT “I think our chances of improving over last year’s finish are good,” says the former Yankee star who replaced Bobby Grancon in the middle of last season. “Our pitching is good and we have 11 or 12 hurlers in hand with big league experience. We also have some mobility in the infield—it can be lifted around a lot.” Herb Score, the blazing left-handed star of two years ago, is the club’s main worry. The feeling is if the trim guy from Oscedale, N.Y., can regain the mastery he enjoyed in 1955 and 1956 that the Indians could give the Yankees a tough argument. Herb was struck in the eye by ball early in 1957 then last year his comeback was impaired by a sore elbow. If Score no longer can pitch the majors, and he has been badly hit in a pair of appearances this spring, Garden Grove contests. 3 BIG DAYS APRIL • 2 • 3 • 4 GARDEN GROVE STRAWBERRY FESTIVAL BROOKHURST WAY North of Garden Grove Blvd. RIDES - GAMES - FUN 10 MISS GARDEN GROVE CONTESTANTS BROOKHURST WAY North of Garden Grove Blvd. RIDES - GAMES - FUN 40 MISS GARDEN GROVE CONTESTANTS BEAUTIFUL GIRLS MUSIC • DANCING • TALENT ON DISPLAY—GIANT U.S. NAVY POLARIS MISSILE U.
