Kline, Omaha, Neb., wait for an official ruling on the playability of the former's ball (arrow) which landed in a curled up water hose on the Seattle Golf Club's 10th fairway.

Football Officials In Preparation for BY GAYLE TALBOT NEW YORK UP—The college football season is approaching and permit me to be the first to give all you fans the happy news that there is going to be more whistle tooting this year than ever before. Reason is that they've now decided to hang a whistle on every official on the field, from headlinesman right through the referee. That means at least four whistles, where only one shrilled before.

Sabbath doubleheaders were favorable for the league-leading Stars. While Hollywood was taking both ends of a twin bill from San Diego Padres, the second place Oakland club was taken to the cleaners twice by Seattle. This puts Hollywood three games ahead of the Oaks. And the Stars have a good chance of increasing their margin when they open a series with the skidding second-division Los Angeles Angels tomorrow. The Stars have been death for the Padres this season. Their 3-2 win in the Sunday opener and 6-2 shellacking in the nightcap gave them six out of seven wins over San Diego for the series. And the Hollywood club ended the season's play with San Diego with 23 victories out of 28 games. Padre Pitcher Bill Henry lost the close opener and Joe Muir, who relieved Mel Queen for the Stars in the seventh, was credited with the win. In the nightcap Paul LaPalme, Hollywood's acquisition from Pittsburgh, got his second win of the week over San Diego. Memo Luna, San Diego's hurling ace, was hammered to the showers in two innings. The beaten Padres get no rest today, as they travel north to play Seattle in the only league game scheduled for Monday. cisco Seals trounced the last place Solons 7-9 and 7-3. It was Elmer Singleton's fourth shutout of the campaign in the opening. In the second game Walter Clough pitched his second win of the season although he had to have help from Bob Muncrief. Portland dispatched the Los Angeles Angels by scores of 11-3 and 5-2. In snapping the Angels' four-game streak in the opener, Portland Outfielder Jim Russell drove in six runs. He got two homers and two singles in five times up. In the seven inning nightcap Chick Pleretti was credited with the win. Anaheim Juniors Trim Costa Mesa 7-6 to Beat Hex Overcoming a season-long hex that had carried them to two defeats and one tie in previous extra-inning meetings, the Anaheim Juniors edged Costa Mesa 7-6 on Friday. Roy Weaver limited the visitors to three hits in hurling the Juniors to their first win over the Means, Buena Park tournament champions. Weaver issued eight passes during the game. He was backed by a nine-hit attack. Joe-Avita blasted out a double and a triple to drive in a pair of runs. Mickey Flynn executed a perfect squeeze bunt in the second frame to drive across two more runs and Kenny Baker scored. STANDING By The Associated Press Pacific Coast Lease W. T.

Ball Officials Draw Whistles Preparation for Rough Season GAYLE TALBOT YORK UP — The college season is approaching, it me to be the first to ou fans the happy news e is going to be more noticing this year than ever is that they've now degang a whistle on every the field, from headright through the refet means at least four where only one shrilled on some conferences it means five. Rough Play The idea behind the influx of whistles is, primarily, to try to make a sharp reduction in the excessively rough play which become notorious last fall. It brought the game a good deal of very unwelcome publicity, and the men who make a living from football are determined to put on the brakes right now. "It's the main thing we've talked about at our meetings since last season," a well known Eastern coach tells me. "Please don't put me in the position of pointing the finger, but we know absolutely that some coaches have become mighty careless about what they teach their boys to do, and it is to our own interest to help the officials stop it. Slowup Games "There will be a great increase in penalties this season and the crowds will not like to see the game slowed up, but we can't have any more pictures in the papers like some you saw last winter. From here on when a player is caught getting too rough he is going out of there in a hurry, and no arguments." The men with the tooters—all four or five of them—will be expected from here on to get right in there with the performers. That includes the field judge who in the close opener and Joe Muir, who relieved Mel Queen for the Stars in the seventh, was credited with the win. In the nightcap Paul LaPalme, Hollywood's acquisition from Pittsburgh, got his second win of the week over San Diego. Memo Luna, San Diego's hurling ace, was hammered to the showers in two innings. The beaten Padres got no rest today, as they travel north to play Seattle in the only league game scheduled for Monday. Elsewhere on the circuit were these Sunday developments: Seattle won its series with Oakland, four games to three, by grabbing the opener 6-2 and winning the nightcap 5-2 in the 13th inning. That 13th inning was the big event. The Rainiers exploded for four doubles and three runs to break it up after Al Gettel had held Seattle scoreless from the third inning. It was Clarence Maddern's double that started the decisive action. In the opener Vern Kindstather chalked up his 17th victory of the year. At Sacramento the San Francisco Candidate Wins Golf Championship SEATTLE UP — The nation's newly crowned Amateur Golf Champion, Jack Westland of Evrete, Wash., is a man deliberate with a putt and quick with a retort. Westland, at 47 the oldest man ever to win the championship, is a candidate for Congress in the Second District of Washington. Asked whether he would rather be the National Amateur champion or a congressman, Westland replied: "I'm already the champion. Now I'd like to be a congressman." He is a Republican running in a district which the Democrats have ruled for 20 years. Did he think voters must question the fact that he takes time out to play golf. Westland said no. He generally plays Wednesdays and Saturdays, and he took a week off—his vacation—to play in the Amateur Tournament. It was in this event that a then younger Westland of 28 got to the finals in 1931 and lost, 6 and 5, to the great Francis Ouimet at Chicago. Two days ago Westland reached the goal. He whipped 23-year-old Al Mengert of Spokane, 3 and 2. Yesterday he got back to the political campaign.

That includes the field judge, who in the past has been a quite austere individual. Each official, as we understand it, will have a given territory to watch very closely, especially for infractions of the personal foul rule and for defensive holding. Each will have something of the original powers of the referee. He will blow a blast at the slightest infraction and order the penalty. Hugh L. Burns, former head trainer at the University of Notre Dame, is now chief trainer for the Detroit Lions in the National Football league. ANAHEIM GAZETTE, INC. Established 1870 Theodore R.

Decathlon Champ On His Wav Home NEW YORK (P)—Bob Mathias SAN FRANCISCO (AP)—San Francisco 49er rooters today wondered if the National league professional footballers lacked any of the ingredients of a championship team following their 38th exhibition pasting of the Chicago Cardinals yesterday. The 49ers walloped the Washington Redskins, 35-0, in their exhibition opener the week before. A crowd of 34,091 saw the 49ers play speed, power and versatility as they piled up 255 yards on the ground and 264 in the air.

End Gordon Soltau kicked a 11-yard first quarter field goal and made a spectacular touchdown catch from Y. A. Tittle in the same quarter. Ollie Matson, all-American at University of San Francisco last year and just back from competing in the Olympics, scored the first 1952 touchdown against the Rams with a one-yard plunge in the third quarter. Matson, playing for Joe Kuharich, his coach USF, also racked up a 33-yard kickoff return and made a 51-yard touchback of an intercepted pass.

Mathias had just arrived by plane from Europe with Walter Davis of Nederland, Tex., winner of the Olympic high jump. Mathias said it was possible he may try to compete in the discus or high hurdles in the 1956 Olympics at Melbourne. "When I said in 1948 I would not enter another decathlon, I was tired." he explained. "This time, after having won it twice, I feel there is nothing more to do."
