HELLYER Aldo South Los Angeles Street Anaheim, California, Phone: 212-748-7474 * ORANGE COUNTY'S LOW COST TRANSPORTATION HEADQUARTERS" 410 S.LOS ANGELES ST., Anaheim, PHONE: Lutherans In Church Wins Grace and Zion Lutherans came off best in Church League Play at City Park last night, as the former dumped White Temple 8-3, and the latter downed Presbyterian 7-3. The league-leading Grace Lutherans had to come from behind to tally their win. White Temple scored three in the third frame on a double by Bob Woodbury, a single by Leo Oden and a pair of Lutheran miscues. Grace Lutheran scored one in the fourth on a walk, pass ball and a single by Don Mauerhan. They overcame the deficit in the fifth with three more counters via singles by Del Martens, Paul Altheide and Art Altheide, and a double by Fred Liehe. They capped the evening with four more runs in the finale. Singles by Art Altheide and Fred Lieh, a White Temple error and a double by Paul Altheide constituted the sphurge. Art Altheide chanked up another stellar relief job, holding White Temple hitless the last three, and a half innings and whiffing eight batters in the process. Zion Lutherans moved back into the running with their victory over the Presbyterians. Both squads notched a trio of runs in the first. That was all for the losers, but the Lutherans went on to score one in the fourth, one in the sixth and two in the seventh to assure the win. Rowland Refuses to Take Major League No for Answer BY CHARLES CHAMBERLAIN CHICAGO (UP) — Clarence "Pants" Rowland, president of the Pacific Coast League, has been re-buffed for the sixth time in his crusade to get his circuit major league status. "No" means nothing to this indomitable baseball pioneer. He presented his request to major league officials yesterday and got the inevitable answer. "I'll be back again next year," said the sparkling-eyed veteran. "We don't intend to continue as a kindergarten for the major league. We want exemption from the player draft. We'll gain major league ranking eventually, and I think I may live to see if I know damn well you kids of 20 and 35 will live to see it." Rowland described his session with baseballs' hierarchy as a meeting "with business men—not baseball men." "They haven't the foresight—or perhaps it's just selfishness—for starting a third major league." Rowland said the only way the Coast League can be eliminated from the player draft is to have major league rating. "It's just a merry-go-round — we can't get one without the other, so we're hogtied," he explained. "Perhaps the answer is that we haven't the big major league type of parks. It's certain we have the crowds. And with the airplane, transportation is no problem." "I am sure the big boys will see the light eventually." Backing up Rowland was C. L. Lewis, president of the Oakland club. He was talking mainly about Dick Winkfield, the one-time bonus baby traded by Detroit to the New York Yankees and then like $80,000,000 over a 10-year-period to build the Coast League into a major league circuit. The parks aren't big enough and attendance just wouldn't support a major league operation. "It is also impossible to exempt them from the player draft, whereby the majors can select any players who have been in the minors for four years for $10,000. If you exempt them, how could you avoid also exempting the other two triple A circuits, the American Association and the International League?" Chandler said an extension for the period of eligibility from four to six years, for instance, would not be right, either. "That would be holding a player from the right to advance in his profession—and there is no possible justification of that," he said. But you can bet it will take more than Chandler to subdue the crusading Rowland. TV Threat to Minors Gauged CHICAGO (UP)—Is this one year—with television and widespread broadcasts of major league play—that may decide the fate of minor league baseball? That question was raised as the American and National leagues played before a plump patronage of 49,000 in the 17th all-star game at Comiskey Park. The alarming note of the joint major league meeting yesterday was this report by president George M. Trautman of the National Association of Professional Art Altheeide chanced up another stellar relief job, holding White Temple battles the last three, and a half innings and winding eight batters in the process. Zion Lutherans moved back into the running with their victory over the Presbyterians. Boon squads notched a trip of runs in the first. That was all for the losers, but the Lutherans went on to score one in the fourth, one in the sixth and two in the seventh to assure the win. The telling fourth inning score came via an error, pass Hill and single by Dick Henning. Johnson singled and Merle Dick doubled to produce run number five in the sixth inning. The closing duo, aided by a walk and an error, featured a single by Lloyd Trapp. Grace Lutheran—AB R H Gelger, 1b Martens, 2b Althede A., ss, p Liebl, c Hedrick B., 2b Althede P., cf Mauerhan, lf Mack, lf Eberhard, rf Johnson, rf Steff, p, 2b Totals 33 8 11 White Temple 4 0 1 Woodbury, lf 4 1 1 Oden, c 4 1 1 Stahlman, p 4 1 0 Noe, cf 3 0 1 Dickenson, rf 3 0 1 Harlow, lb 2 0 1 Ryan D., 3b 2 0 1 Hermah L., 2b 2 0 0 Totals 20 3 6 Grace Lutheran 000.120 4—8113 White Temple 003.030 0—365 Zion Lutheran—AB R H Schmidt, lb 5 1 1 Henning D., of 4 1 3 Miller, rf 2 0 1 Johnson, rf 1 0 1 Grimm H., c 2 1 0 Bielefeld A., lf 4 1 1 Bielefeld E., 3b 4 0 1 Trapp F., 2b 3 1 0 Trapp L., ss 4 1 1 Dick M., p 4 1 1 Totals 33710 Presbyterian—Paulus J., 3b 3111 Paulus F., p 3111 Holden B., c 3111 Cookus, ss 3000 Ross B., cf 3000 Williams, 2b 3000 Ross L., lf 3000 Hall, rf 3000 Chamberlain, lb 3000 KOREAN CHAMP PING-PONG FUNNY LOS ANGELES Hang Choy, Korean champion stranded funds because of the country, has $146 today by virtue of Table Tennis association.

That question was raised as the American and National leagues played before a plump patronage of 49,000 in the 17th all-star game at Comiskey Park. The alarming note of the joint major league meeting yesterday was this report by president George M. Trautman of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues (minor leagues): The first month of play by some 444 minor league clubs resulted in a loss of one million fans. That was caused mainly by broadcast and television of major league games in minor league territory, Trautman said. The Justice department in Washington has already indicated that any attempt to curb major league radio or telecasts might be interpreted as a monopoly. So the minor leagues have stood patiently by while their turnstiles have rusted. How long they can take a boxoffice beating is questionable. The survey of minor league attendance will continue throughout the season. Then Trautman will present the plight of his organization to the Justice department for what it is worth. "As things are going," said Trautman, "the death of the minors seems inevitable." Trautman cited this example of how major league encroachment—through television or chain radio broadcasts—is affecting the minors: In Seattle, of the Pacific Coast League, fans get outside baseball entertainment from 11 a.m. until midnight. In the top three minor leagues; American Association attendance was reported 27 per cent below last year; the International League had dropped 19 per cent; and the Pacific Coast League 12%.

Attlesey also had surpassed the 120-yard high hurdle mark at the Fresno, Calif., relay earlier this season.
