A-6—Anaheim (Cal.) Bulletin Tuesday, May 5, 1959 B-2—Anaheim (Cal.) Bulletin Tuesday, May 5, 1959 Mr. Moto Battles Thesz In Anaheim May 15 Major league wrestling will come to Orange County May 15 when Lou Thesz, world heavyweight mat champion, and Mr. Moto, giant Japanese wrestler, headline a big-time card in Anaheim High School gymnasium. Also appearing on the star-studded show, arranged as a benefit for the L.D.S. Church, will be Enrique Romero, matched in the semi-final event against the Great Profile, Handsome Henry Lenz, hall of the international television tag team champions. The top preliminary will bring El Lobo, formerly operating as a masked man, against the mysterious Zoro, another masked wrestler, whose identity is held secret. They will wrestle to one fall, with a 30-minute limit. Room Boom Mahallick, pro football player, will meet hard-boiled Hardy Kruskamp in the opener, one fall, 20 - minute limit. Romero and Lenz will go for the best two out of three falls, with a 45-minute time limit. Main Event In the main event, Thesz and Mr. Moto also will grapple for best two out of three falls, with a one-hour time limit. The seven L.D.S. churches sponsoring the event were able to arrange the card through the offices of Pat Cronin, former pro wrestler and fighter, whose personal acquaintance with Thesz and matchmaker Jules Strongbow of Los Angeles made it possible to bring the mat event to Anaheim. Cronin is a member of the L.D.S. Church. "There is no question about these Major League Standings United Press International National League W. L. Pct. GB San Francisco 12 8 .600 ...

Moto Unhappy Cronin said, in fact, that "Mr. Moto is not at all happy with the situation, but he will have to be here. It seems he signed a blank contract, then learned later that his opponent would be no less than Lou Thesz. "His beef is that such a match should be staged in the Olympic, Los Angeles, or in Madison Square Garden. He has a point, there, but the match nevertheless, will be held in Anaheim. And the high school gym seats 3,300 people, about the largest capacity in this section except the Olympic. Mr. Moto will have his crowd. I'm sure the gym will be filled."

(Bulletin Photo) Chuck Gottier Leaves; But He'll Return MILWAUKEE, Wis. (UPI) — Rookie Chuck Cottier, much-publicized candidate to replace Red Schoendienst at second base for the Milwaukee Braves, has failed in his first attempt because of "inexperience, but he'll be back." That's the opinion of Braves' General Manager John McHale, who optioned the young infielder to Louisville of the American Association Monday night on 24-hour recall. The Braves also cut loose reserve outfielder Jim Pisoni to reduce their squad to 26—one over the player limit which must be reached by Saturday. WILL JOIN SENATORS WASHINGTON (UPI)—Outfielder Albie Pearson, who has been out with a virus, will join the Washington Senators in Chicago today for the opening of a two-game series with the White Sox. This small world gets The exciting world within a drop of oil keeps growing as we make bring new and better products into your world. Even now, these products enter every hour of your day — from auto lubricants to synthetic fibers for blankets you sleep under at night and during the day. Wax containers that preserve food; plastics, paints, photographic medicines, synthetic rubber and thousands of other items for farms, and the Armed Forces now are made better because of oil ingredients supplies to manufacturers. But there's more in oil's future — much more. And so last year, as our biggest jobs was finding ways to make oil serve you better — we create new and improved products, and building facilities to put these here are some of the things we did during 1958 to expand the world w Y AD. ay ad ment — Budget! ings All y's High Products!" y!

The winners had a 12-2 lead at the end of three innings and 14-7 at the end of four. Seven errors and 11 bases on balls almost spelled disaster for Al Ashley's nine. Veeck Returns Home To Persuade Boone CHICAGO (UPI)—The Chicago White Sox' Bill Veeck sped back from a downstate trip today to try and talk first baseman Ray Boone out of quitting baseball so the Sox could trade Boone to the Kansas City Athletics for Harry Simpson. "I feel this is the time to quit," Boone said, "I've got bursitis on the knee and that calcium has been building up. The knee's been troubling me all year. I had a long debate with myself before even going down to spring training. However, I'll listen to what Bill has to say." The Sox announced the Boone-for-Simpson straight trade Sunday, while Boone was confined to his hotel room with the flu. Monday, Boone told the Sox he was considering quitting baseball — which, of course, would nullify the trade. Boone agreed, however, to wait for Veeck, in Ottawa Ill., before making any final announcement. RIDES THREE WINNERS PIMLICO, Md. (UPI)—Jockey Larry Adams turned in a triple in the opening of a 12-day spring meeting at Pimlico. Combining the miscues of the Spartans and ten hits off the visitor's bats, the losers rallied for four runs in the sixth inning and had the bases loaded before Ron Yett came in to strike out the last two batters to preserve the win for Jerry Chapman. The Spartans jumped on Joe Quiroga for four runs on two hits in the initial inning. Al Chaney walked, Dave Bell was safe on an error, and both advanced on Yett's grounder to first. Red Winn singled up the middle, driving in both runners and Mike Bierney blasted a long homer for two more runs. With two outs in the second, Chaney singled, Dave Bell doubled him home and scored on Yett's single. In the third, the Green & White wore out the base paths as 12 batters paraded to the plate. When the diamond dust had cleared, six runs had been tallied on five hits, three walks, and one error. Yett kept his blazing bat hot with a three for four output. Al Chaney had two hits in two trips, and scored four runs. Red Winn had a two for three, scored twice and drove in three runs. Bierney had a one for two effort, driving in three runs and hitting his first homer of the year.
