Four Yankees Selected For All-Star Team ; . i New York, Oct. 17.—(UP)—No matter what happens, the Yankees! is till come out on top. Four of the world xdiamps, catcher Yogi Berra, shortstop ‘Phil [ Rizzuto, rookie second baseman Gil! McDougald, and pitcher Allie Rey-| nolds were named today to the an- 1 nual United Press American leaguiM alLstar team selected by 24 veteran I \ baseball writers—three in each league city. It was the usual The rest of the team Consisted of outfielders Ted Williams and Doni Di-1 Maggio of the Red Sox and Orestes I . Minoso of the White Sox, first base-' man Ferris Fain of the Athletics.! third baseman George Kell of the Tigejs. and pitches Ned Garver of j the Browns. I There was a significant turnover in the all-star selections. Only; three players were repeaters front' last year as a new crop of top talent blossomed all over the loop.* The were Berra, Kell and / Rizzuto. _ \ ' | Berra also had another distinction—he was the only player , selected unanimously. .The hard-wor-k- ; x ing little catcher who looks like a shrimp-blimp, was the best of\a’ below average crop of -backstops'. Setting the Yankee long distance hitting pace with 88 runs batted in and 27 homers, he also played in 141 games—a remarkable total'for a catcher. I Riztuto, last year's most valu-j able player, didn’t quite measure up to his 1950 standards, but held I the Yankee infield together, batted a solid .274 and stole 17 bases. He won by a good margin Over coming star Al Carrasquel of the White. 7~ Sox. ' Rookie McDougald, good at bpth' second and third, won out at the keystone spot in a .close race oyer' Bobby Avila of Cleveland and Nel-t son Fox of the White Sox,* He was' the only Yankee to bat over .3j00,! hitting .306 and ousted TastAyear's second base all-star. Jerry -Coleman, from his job. Kell, who has been the league’s best third base* q man for years, probably vfould have been Chosen unanimously had not , some of McDougald’s votes beep at ; that spot. Kell batted .319, a little off his usual standard, but still the best at that post. Fain, despite a six-week layoff because of injuries, was named on ail but one first base ballot. He won the league batting champion-, ship with a nifty .344 mark and wasj easily the best offensive player at i - the bag. ‘ I In the outfield, rookie Minoso.! who wound UP with a -326 average; t. and led the league in stolen bases; A\ 11 11 I V I Tonight & Thursday 0 . 0 L OUR BIG DAYS! _j First Show Tonight 6:30 Continuous Thur, from 1:30! * j BE SURE TO ATTEND o— — : • ° but&p; / she wasn’t ![ r nn ' esl \ @WMIMfIKOf.

Dom Di- | Maggio batted* .294 and won out over Athletic slugger, Gus Zernial. I Who Just missed the team. Zernial i batted in 129 runs and hit ,33 horn- . ers, leading the league in both de--1 partments, even though he hit only 1..268. | i 7 I Reynolds, d<t>ul|ie no-hit hero of I the Yankees, won out in a close race with his own mates. Ed Lopat I and Vic Raschi, and Cleveland ace. Bobby Feller. But Garver, who won 20. games and lost 12 with the tattered Browns, paced the pitching balloting all the way. Reynolds won 17 and lost eight and was the key Yankee jn the big games including his nd-hit triumphs over top contenders, Boston and Cleveland. . PRISON RIOT (Coatinurd From Pair One) j ——. s | when the convicts, protesting against “vile, corrupt and unsanitary” conditions refused to enter their • cells. The warden said trouble has been brewing in the institution “ever since they learn- - |-eJ of the trouble at other pens such as Utah, North Carolina and Canon City.” > Guards armed with high powered rifles fired warning shots a/ 'the convicts from time to time throughout the night to keep them buck from the 40-foot walls. In return the convicts hurled stones at the 110 guards and -police ' watching over them. , The rioting started yesterday only a few hours after a federal judge appointed a committee to investigate charges that prisoners were “inhumanly” crowded together, maltreated and poorly fed. The accusations were contained in a petition smuggled out of the prison.

They expect a senate-house conference committee, to come In with ’ another tax increase bill in a day or two — perhaps little changed from the one the house rejected—and for it to be approved. The defeat was engineered, by an unusual coalition of Republicans and new deal Democrats. Most of the Republicans didn't want any bill at all. Most of Democrats didn’t like the one before them. The argument of the Democrats voting against it was tfiat the hit too hard at persons with incomes of less than 55.000 a year and not hard enough at persons in the upper income brackets. The fote was 203 to 157. with 1.39 Republicans and 64 Democrats voting against it; 122 Democrats, 34 Republicans, and one independent for it. The compromise bill proposed to increase most individual income taxes by about 11. <5 percent. But single persons earning more thah 128.000 a year and married couples w’th a coihbined income of more than 156.000 faced an increase of only nine percent. Youth Crushed To Death By Tractor Salem. Ind.. Oct. 17—(UP)— Leonard Barnett, 21, was crushed to death yesterday when a farm tractor he was driving ran off a county road nine miles north of here and rolled down an embankment.
