Wally Moon, L. A. Dodder By LEONARD R. HANDEL Anaheim, which has been the home of many top sports celebrities, has taken another large step forward in this direction with the arrival on the local scene of Wally Moon, hard-hitting Los Angeles Dodger outfielder. Wally, who was acquired by the Dodgers last December from the St. Louis Cardinals, is new residing in this city with his wife Betty and their three young children and first reports from the Moon household give the stamp of approval to the community. Moon, a 29-year-old outfielder, is one of the more popular men in the Los Angeles camp. A friendly person, who shows a marked seriousness about the game, he is rated as one of the best new men added to the Dodger roster. NO SECRET It is no secret that last season, one reason the Dodgers did not climb to any great degree in the National League standings was because of the injury to Duke Snider of Fallbrook, Calif., and the resultant weakness in the Los Angeles outfield. Acquiring of Moon stands to bolster this weakness as the tall Dodger fly chaser is a heavy hitter, who already has proven himself not only at the plate but in the field. In an interview with the Bulletin, Moon, a college graduate, had many things to say about baseball and those who participate in it. Asked who is the most difficult pitcher he has ever faced, Wally said: "That would have to be Warren Spahn of the Milwaukee Braves." In this regard Wally is not alone. Spahn has been one of the National Loop's top tossers for many years, which is proof of his ability. Speaking of the Milwaukee twirler the Anaheim slugger said: "He has near-perfect control and an assortment of pitches." However, while Wally has been having some troubles with Spahn he must have found other hurlers quite a bit simpler to hit as in his five-year tenure in the majors which is no simple feat in its Wally's rise on the baseability in many ways. WEST The Dodger slugger broke played for Omaha, Nebraska. There he hit .317, which breaking into the sport. In fact it is not bad for years before Abner Doubleday. Moon stayed with the On while he finished his college e Following his graduation B of the Triple "A" Internationa This club is a farm team Wally clipped off a .307 he wa for the '54 season. With the Cards Wally star Paul Minner, of the Chicago Brooklyn Dodgers. In his first trip to the play socked a home run, which is An interesting factor here and now with the Chicago Cub league appearance. The blow was struck on Moon; who has been given during the present campaign man should complete his college baseball. "Baseball is a hazardous one which is highly competitive Tourney of Champions Starts in Las Vegas LAS VEGAS, Nev. (UPI) — The world's most conclusive golf tournament, staged in the world's biggest gambling town, gets under way today as 26 competitors tee off in the seventh annual tournament of Champions. The co-favorites are Art Wall, the Masters champion from Po-cono Manor, Pa., and Gene Littler, three-time winner of this LAS VEGAS, Nev. (UPI) — The world's most conclusive golf tournament, staged in the world's biggest gambling town, gets under way today as 26 competitors tee off in the seventh annual tournament of Champions. The co-favorites are Art Wall, cono Manor, Pa., and Gene Littler, three-time winner of this event, from San Diego, Calif. Defending champion Stan Leonard, a 10-1 shot in a city where every man in the street can quote you the latest odds, will be the first to tee off—at 1 p.m. p.s.t. He was paired with Gary Player, the young South African whiz. To be eligible to compete here, a player had to win a major PGA - approved golf tournament during the preceding 12 months. So the field is evenly matched—every man is a champion. The golfers, themselves, can't settle on a man to win. Littler thinks Wall is the solid choice. Wall goes for a longshot, Billy Maxwell. Frank Stranahan, who isn't a player but is here as a spectator, likes Billy Casper. One thing the long (7,100 yards) Desert Inn Country Club course takes is a straight shooter. To most observers this rules out such long clouters as George Bayer, Mike Souchak and Paul Harney. But it also takes a fine putting stroke—such as that possessed by Littler, Wall and Casper. Officials of the tournament announced at the last minute that the purse had been up from $40,000 to $46,620. First place is worth $10,000, second $5,000, third $3,000 and fourth $2,000. Finals are set for Sunday and the last hour of competition will be televised nationally. Major League Standings United Press International National League W. L. Pct. GB Milwaukee 6 1.857 ...

Dodger Outfielder, Happy in year tenure in the majors he has acquired a .294 batting average, which is no simple feat in itself. Wally's rise on the baseball ladder is one which tells of his city in many ways. WESTERN LEAGUE The Dodger slugger broke into professional ball in 1950 when he needed for Omaha, Nebraska-of the Class "A" Western League. There he hit .317, which is not half bad for a young man just taking into the sport. In fact it is not bad for a guy who has been in the game four years before Abner Doubleday. Moon stayed with the Omaha ball club for the next two years he finished his college education Texas A&M. Following his graduation he moved up on the ladder to Rochester the Triple "A" International League. This was in 1953. This club is a farm team of the St. Louis Cardinals and after clipped off a .307 he was promptly brought up to the Redbirds the '54 season. With the Cards Wally started off with a bang at the expense of Al Miner, of the Chicago Cubs, and a former hurrier for the Brooklyn Dodgers. In his first trip to the plate as a major league ball player, Moon fixed a home run, which is a feat not easily accomplished. An interesting factor here is that Bobby Adams, also of Anaheim, now with the Chicago Cubs, did the same thing in his first major league appearance. The blow was struck on opening day. Moon; who has been giving local fans many thrilling moments in the present campaign, is strong in his belief that a young should complete his college education before entering professional球. "Baseball is a hazardous occupation," Moon said, "and is also which is highly competitive." The dependable Anaheim outfielder stated further that if a young man cannot make the grade the education acquired while in college would be a fine thing for him. NOT MANY YEARS Taking the thing a step further, Moon brought out a good point when he stated, "Even if a ball player does make the grade he only has a certain number of years in which he can play and then if he has a college education it will be that much simpler for him to carry on with the same standard of living he has become accustomed to while in baseball. Moon is a good example of this himself. Wally has earned a degree in education and psychology. He has taught math, physical education and first aid in the East and may follow this upon leaving baseball when his career comes to its conclusion. "I enjoy teaching," Wally said. A deep student of baseball, Wally had many interesting things to say concerning the difference between major and minor league competition. "In the majors," Wally said, "you are facing the best every day. He said further that the opposition tries at all times to learn your weakness and then works at putting it to work against you. A product of the American Legion Junior Baseball program, Wally is a strong booster of the plan. He said that it gives young men a chance to play organized ball at an early age and for this reason they acquire additional experience which aids them in later years. HAPPY HERE Looking at the present National League race, Moon is highly confident that his ball club will earn a first division berth. "We are stronger than last year's team," he said, "as the outfield is more powerful and if Duke Snider's knee should hold up f...

Robinson in Danger Of Losing Crown NEW YORK (UPI) — Sugar Ray Robinson, pinned against the legal ropes by the double attack of a New York state judge and the National Boxing Association, was in grave danger today of losing his world middleweight championship. Robinson, who never has defended the crown he won last year from Carmen Basillo, was told Wednesday by State Supreme Court Judge Saul Streit that he must sign within 15 days to defend against Basilo or risk being stripped of the crown.

And the NBA, which rules boxing in states other than New York indicated it will take the title from the "Sugar Man" unless he signs by midnight this Saturday. Just how Robinson would react to these twin threats, as dangerous as any he ever faced in the ring, wasn't being made clear either by Robinson or by his handlers. One source reported the champion defiant, daring both New York and the NBA to do their worst, but Robinson, busy with funeral arrangements for his sister, won't making any public statements. There was some chance that Robinson would meet the deadlines by agreeing this week to a defense against Basilo. He already has held several conferences with Madison Square Garden boxing officials on the subject. Judge Streit slapped the new deadline on Robinson in handling down a decision in a court proceeding brought by Robinson. The champion had asked the court to stop the New York State Athletic Commission from fulfilling its threat to vacate his title unless he signed for a defense against Basilo. Streit upheld the right of the commission to set a time limit on a champion and to name a suitable opponent. "Otherwise," he ruled, "a champion could freeze his title indefinitely by selecting inferior opponents for his defense of that title."

Asked why he though last year's team finished low in the Circuit race Moon said that he thought the move to Los Angeles was partitly the cause and also the fact that they had to become acquainted to Memorial Coliseum. Concerning the present home of the Dodgers, Moon said, "The Coliseum is not conducive to good ball." He said that the lights are not good and that the left field wall also hurts baseball play there. Wally brought up another interesting factor when he said that the fans are not close enough to the action. He stated that baseball fans should be close to the game to get the maximum benefit from it. However, even with these problems Wally is certain that the Dodgers will have a better showing this year. He said that they have been getting good support from the new players and reported that if the younger pitchers such as Stan Williams and Sandy Koufax, plus veterans like Don Drysdale and Art Fowler should come through they will be in good shape. The 1954 Rookie of the Year stated that he was happy to be in Anaheim and said that he moved here when Dodger officials, Arthur "Red" Patterson, publicity director; Buzzy Bavasi, vice president and general manager; plus Fresco Thompson, vice president and director of minor league operations told him of the fine living conditions in Orange County. Another was Jerry Doggett, who broadcasts the games. All are from Fullerton. The popular Dodger outfielder has proven himself to be not only a topnotch ball player but a real nice guy. The Moons have three children: Wally Joe, 8; Zola, 3; and Eliza-beth, nine months. The Anaheim Welcome Mat is out for Wally Moon and his family.

Pirie OK'd For Relays At Pomona POMONA (UPI)—Gordon Pirie of England has permission to compete in Friday night's two-mile race in the Mt. San Antonio Relays. Pirie received confirmation from Dan Ferris, secretary of the National AAU. Ferris cabled the International AAU in London for the British distance ace's clearance. Pirie has a two-mile time of 8.39. He will compete against Bill Dellinger, America's No. 1 runner in the event, and Jerome Walters of the Southern California Striders. In the discus throw set for Saturday afternoon, Parry O'Brien will compete, having returned home in time from a trip to Africa. But his awaited contest with Dallas Long and Bill Nieder In the shot put event was put off the schedule. O'Brien, holder of the world's shot put record of 63 feet, 2 inches, hurt his hand during his trip and will not be able to participate in the shot put event. Both Long and Nieder have surpassed O'Brien's mark in exhibitions. The locals scored the first time they came up as Kenny Meas walked, stole second, and scored on a single by Bill Burns. In the third, Dennis Wolin was safe on an error and scored as Burns raped out a triple to make the score 20. Mendoza also proved that he could hit as he drove in two more runs in the fourth inning to run the West Anaheim L.L. To Open Saturday Mayor A. J. Schutte will honor the West Anaheim Little League on Saturday, April 25th, by throwing out the first ball to start the first game of the season between Lin-brook Bowl's White Sox and the Delco Battery's Dodgers.

Maxwell Field has been renovated by Anaheim Park and Recreation Dept., and Mr. Stronach will be on hand to see the field put to its first use. With six Major teams, six Minor, and 18 Coast teams playing in the West Anaheim Little League this year it promises to be an exciting and very active season. GOLFER'S PHILOSOPHY THOMASVILLE, Ga. (UPI) — Mary Lena Faulk's favorite books are the dictionary and Santaya's works on philosophy, and it isn't surprising that she has become a golf philosopher as well as one of the sport's top woman players. "You have to be philosophical to play golf," Mary says. The locals scored the first time they came up as Kenny Maas walked, stole second, and scored on a single by Bill Burns. In the third, Dennis Wolin was safe on an error and scored as Burns raped out a triple to make the score 20. Mendoza also proved that he could hit as he drove in two more runs in the fourth inning to run the score to 4-0. The roof really fell in on the boys from Pomona in the fifth as John Batton led off with a tremendous homcrun over the center fielder's head. This started the rally, and before the side was out, a total of six runs had crossed the plate, with Mendoza driving in two more with another single, making the final tally 10-0. It was a different story Wednesday as the Sophs from AUHIS calls over and drubbed their little brothers 8-2. George Knox started for Fremont, but could not retire a man in the first inning as he walked four men and gave up three singles. John Goodell took over on the mound and finally retired the side, but not until seven big runs had scored. Fremont got one run back in the bottom of the first, as Morley Williams walked. He scored on what would have been a triple by Burns, but the alert H. G. defense detected Burns missing second base and he was only credited with a single. Meanwhile Goodell pitched hisless ball until the sixth when the Colonist Sophs added their final litsy, but the damage had already been done. Fremont added their final score in the bottom of the sixth. Mike Bull was the winning pitcher as he allowed five hits, struck out six, and walked four.
