Wednesday, April 29, 1959 Anaheim (Cal.) Bulletin—B-11 I'll Handel This By LEONARD R. HANDEL (Bulletin Sports Editor) The current climb of Los Angeles' Dodgers brings to mind a question which should produce some interesting answers. This would simply ask, "Will success spoil Walter Alston?" For the past two years brother Walter has been the target of many experts and would-be experts who have expressed an opinion that the lad had about as much job security as a chain-smoker in a munitions plant. In short, it has been stated, not only in this space but in other ones, that Alston was in dangerous position of having his job blown right out from under him. General consensus of opinion had it that Dodger brass, from Club President Walter O'Malley down to the lowest second assistant secretary were waiting to see just what would happen before lowering the axe. Well, when the National League race got under way the Dodgers started off as though they were going to take up where they left off last season. They dropped an opener to the Cardinals and in doing so gave a number of indications that they were prepared to once again take out the option, on the dungeon. However, after just a few games they started to find their marks and everything became real rosy. Probably their highest point of the season was when they dropped St. Louis 17-11 after blowing a number of leads. At this writing they are perched atop the Loop ladder and while it is just a wee bit too early to start making World Series reservations, a number of interesting points can be made. First is that Dodger pitching appears to be quite a bit more solid. Such men as Don Drysdale, Sandy Koufax, Johnny Podres and Stan Williams have been coming through well. One reason for this might be the additional year, experience currently being enjoyed by John Roseboro, the fine catcher, who came in last season when Roy Canjpanella suffered his tragic injury. The Dodgers have been receiving some fine hitting support, too, with Don Demeter, Don Zimmer, Anaheim's Wally Moon, and Charlie Neal, doing a top job. It will be interesting to see just what the Dodgers will be able to accomplish during the remaining portion of their current Eastern swing. Should they be able to return to Smogtown with a greater number of victories than defeats, and in so doing be riding high in National Loop standings, it could produce the most hotly-contested races in many moons. Alston is faced with the problem, though, of having to keep the club going against some clubs which figure to have it over them like a tent in the talent department. Milwaukee, for instance, will host the Dodgers May 4-6 and it is quite possible that this three-game set will smash a few attendance figures for the Fred Haney-managed crew.

Should they be able to return to Smogtown with a greater number of victories than defeats, and in so doing be riding high in National Loop standings, it could produce the most hotly-contested races in many moons. Alston is faced with the problem, though, of having to keep the club going against some clubs which figure to have it over them like a tent in the talent department. Millwaukee, for instance, will host the Dodgers May 4-6 and it is quite possible that this three-game set will smash a few attendance figures for the Fred Haney-managed crew. This, by the way, brings up a few more factors. One is that should those Dodgers come back home, as we have said, high in Circuit operations, they will be well on their way to another top season at the gate. A number of fans have asked why it is possible the Dodgers are running behind last season's gate mark although they are winning more games. The answer to this is simple. Last year major league baseball was something new on the West Coast. The Dodgers drew simply because it was big time action and friend fan was curious. This year that factor has been eased and fandom thought it better to wait and see before shoving their hard-earned cash through the wicket. However, if the club continues to win — and this is a distinct possibility — then gate figures will take care of themselves. There is an old saying that it is useless to buy oats for a dead horse. It seems also that your average sports fan will add to this fact that it is not entirely wise to pay money to see a dead ball club. The 1959 Dodgers, though, have one thing which last year's team lacked. This is the ability to excite by virtue of snappy fielding, good clutch hitting and pitching which must take a back seat to no crew. Tonight Alston's lads open in Philadelphia, the City of Brotherly Love, and empty stands. Those Phils have been in the second division for the greater majority of their years, and even when they win it is not enough to bring out the fan. These games could do a great deal for the Dodgers, though, as if they can win at the expense of the Phils, the problem of success spoiling Alston will be that much smaller. So, it appears that the current road trip means a great deal to the Dodgers. The game won now need not be taken in September. They make the task that much easier. Race for Roses, Noses Will Highlight Alamitos Card Saturday LOS ALAMITOS—Race fans can take in both the quarter horse race and the Kentucky der by Saturday at Los Alamitos race course. Track President Frank Vessel sr. announced today that arrangements had been completed for the rental of large-screen TV sets for placement throughout the Los Alamitos Club House and grandstand for the convenience of race fans who want to see the "Run for the Roses."

It was a wild contest which saw Coach Roy Merk's forces grab a 7-0 lead, only to nearly lose the decision when the spirited Tigers roared back with four tallies in the third and two more in the sixth. It was a loosely played affair, one which would be expected earlier in the year. Coach Roy Merk's forces came up with four errors, while the Valencians were guilty of two more. Mater Dei Baseballers Lead Parochial League By BOB LUSKEY Mater Del was all by itself on top of the Parochial League baseball standings today after knocking off pesty St. Paul's 6 to 0 yesterday afternoon at Memorial Park in Santa Ana. The Monarchs had been tied for the loop leadership with defending champ Pomona Catholic, but the Spartans have lost two in a row in the past week and are now in the number two spot, one game back of the Orange Countians. Mater Del looked good in beating the Swordsmen yesterday as Coach Pat Roberts' charges knocked out nine hits while pitcher Dennis Fraser was shutting the losers out on seven safeties. It was a big win for Fraser who has lost his first three outings this year, following a wrist injury. The lanky senior whiffed six and walked two in going the seven innings route and except for one slight jam when he had runners on first and second, was never in any serious trouble. Pacing Attack Pacing the Monarchs' hitting assault was third baseman Bobby Gonzales who drilled a home run to right field in the fourth inning with nobody aboard. The Monarch third sacker also collected a double to go along with his circuit clout in four trips to the plate. Other Mater Dei batsmen who Western started things off a loud bang in the second with one out Tom Quick singles. He was advanced to secure a base hit by Keith Davis as bases became loaded a later when Nick Odowick wore both Quick and Davis steaming across the plate. Marty Serlin unleashed a right-center and when he thrown wildly back to the Odowick came flying home Serlin did likewise. It was then 4-0 and the more to come. Hit By Pitch Roger Aquinaga was hit pitched ball and Butch Bartler fered the same fate. Tim McManus hit a ball stop and when the throw took place late all hands were sailed. Aquinaga, who had been on the play, headed home in to score the fifth seventh runs of the evening Bill Martin singled into right rally Ends The rally finally ended Quick popped to second base However, the game was over.

Marshall, a 2b-goal man, scored twice in pacing Hershey to a 5-2 play-off victory over the Bisons, wrapping up the best-of-seven series, four games to two. A three-goal spree by Hershey in the final period nullified penant-winning Buffalo's game attempt to stay alive in the playoffs. Ed Stanklewicz, Hank Yanosik and Marshall broke a 2-2 deadlock with their trio of tallies to give the fourth-place Bears the title. Belma Wins Decision In Long Beach Bout LONG BEACH (UPI)—Frankie Belma, 151, Wilmington, was awarded a close decision over Nicaragua's Kid Rayo, 152½, in their 10-rounder Tuesday night at Municipal Stadium.

The Monarch third sacker also collected a double to go along with his circuit clout in four trips to the plate. Other Mater Dei batsmen who had good afternoons were second baseman Paul Gentleman who was two for four and right fielder John Huarte who slapped a triple in three tries. The Monarchs actually ice the game in the first innings when lead off hitter Dan Salceda drilled a double to left and came home on Gonzales' two baser. Left fielder Dave Casey then chased Gonzales home with a looping single to center. Mater Dei added insurance tallies in the next four innings when the local forces pushed across one run in each of those frames. The Monarchs are now 7 and 2 in Parochial League combat at 13-5 on the year. The Robertsmen will now brace for tomorrow's invasion by third place Mary Star. The Stars had their title hopes all but snuffed out last Monday when the San Pedro squad was upset by St. John Vianey 3 to 2 in Los Angeles. The Stars, however, still sport a dangerous club and beat the Monarchs in the first round of loop action 7 to 4. JOINS OLYMPICS STAFF BRUNSWICK, Maine (UPI) — Dr. Daniel F.

It was then 4-0 and there was more to come. Hit By Pitch Roger Aquinaga was hit by a pitched ball and Butch Barthel suffered the same fate. Tim McManus hit a ball to shortstop and when the throw to second was late all hands were safe.
