Fori Wayne Plans To Go Ahead With Game I FORT WAYNE (UP>—The Fort Wayne . Amateur Athletic Club planned to go ahead today with a June 9 clash between All-Star high school basketball players from Indiana and Ohio despite objections of the sponsor of a similar Indiana-Kentucky series. A spokesman for the Fort Wayne group said after a meeting Monday night it believes the I game with Ohio "is the more out- j standing of the All-Star attrac-1 tions." I The spokesman said seven-foot Mike McCoy of Fort Wayne South, jumping-jack John Kelso of Fort Wayne Central and Jerry Lucas, { 6-9 center from Middletown. Ohio, 1 {another prep "All-America”, had agreed to play in the Indiana-Ohio game. Bill Shovcr, game director of; the Indiana-Kentucky series for the Indianapolis Star, said { Wednesday he had contacted 1 some of the players scheduled to play against Ohio, including Me-; { Coy, and received the promise { that they would not play in the ' 1 Fort Wayne gameShovcr said any player partici- ' pating against Ohio and also | ’ j picked to play against Kentucky j ; Would not play in the latter two-1 ' game series June 21 and June 28 : at Indianapolis and Louisville, re- { '! spectively. ’ { McCoy was voted by Indiana’s ] ’ j sportswriters and broadcasters I . the No. 1 player against Ken- j ! tucky. "The officers of the Fort Wayne! Athletic Club believe they are .(right, that they have been honest, ( in contacting the players and are; ;! promoting this game for the bet-1 terment of amateur athletics in ■ the state of Indiana,” said the { spokesman. '(• The Summit City group indi- { cated it would go through with the game scheduled for the Coli-i ; seum even if they had to use only; {: area players which produced { state champion Fort Wayne South 1 ! this year. 1 ' 3 Ed Denton Quits As Silver Creek Coach ' JEFFERSONVILLE W — Ed Benton resigned as basketball { 1 coach of Silver Creek High School; 1 Wednesday because he was tired: { of coaching the sport after 10 . years.

1,.../ '■ 'I Today's Sport Parade 1 (Ret.. U.S. Pat. Off.) 1 By OSCAR FRALEY United Press Sports Writer NEW YORK (UP)- It may be I true that everybody loves a winner, but you can’t sell that to the New York Yankees. s When the Dodgers and Giants v moved west, there was some t speculation that the Yankees d might pick up some of the National League patronage. It was j : the old theory of it being the only r wheel in town and therefore c would get the play t But 1 the Yankees are drawing c less than last season — at least t in their first five games — and there is a feeling now that they , i may be taking the rap for an j I anti-baseball feeling engendered ' by the newest California gold ‘ I rush. , The early season attendance . figures are more than interesting. ; I They tell a dollars and cents t ■ story which makes it evident c that, if baseball is a business as 1 (some people more than suspicion, I the Dodgers and Giants may 1 have been oh so right in packing I iup their troubles in a traveling ■ bag. ( Don’t Pull ’Stiles 1 I' New Yorkers can well scream that the Dodgers were making t money and they can shake a shil- < lelagh at Walter O'Malley for 1 Some of the maneuvers he used 1 iin breaking the lease. But you ; : can't fault the accountants when < they say that New Yorkers, de- < i spite their moaning and com- ] : plaining, aren’t supporting base- ] ; ball. ; They still have what many con- | sider the best team in the major , leagues in the Yankees — and ( the turnstile tale there is amaz- , ing. Last season, when there were three teams in New York, the Yankees on opening day drew 31,644. This year, with the field to themselves, their opener drew 23,463—a drop of 8.181. The Yankees, in their first five 1 home games this, season, drew 118.891 against 119.336 last season. That’s 37,445 fewer customers 1 ’ than they drew in the first five , ! home games last season. I Now let’s take a peek at the 1 bright new California show win- ] dows. You can credit much of it • to- the newness of major leaguei ] ball on the coast and predict that ] it won’t last. But . . Box Office Gains ] The Dodgers in their first sou - ; games at Los Angeles have ( played to 206,668 fans In their ; j first four games last year, Brook-! ; lyn’s Dodgers entertained 53,552. j I That’s an increase this year of! 153,116 —. and that ain’t hay. 4= The New - York Giants of last | season, in their first four home; encounters played to 37,105. This season, in their first four tilts in San Francisco, they have put 81.- ,• 489 customers into a hat box. That’s an increase of 44.384. When the Dodgers, in particu-1 lar, moved, there was a great hue and cry about stripping! Brooklyn of its national heritage, j that the club belonged to the fans, etc, etc, etc. Yet, if it is I the national pastime, the question ' arises as to whether California a part of the nation and deserves the baseball it apparently will support. The attendance could fade on j the coast, particularly if the' Dodgers and Giants play poorl ! ball. The Coliseum could become ’ a concrete catacombs and the Seals Stadium a ghostly bandbox. i But off the early results at the gate, O'Malley and Horace Stoneham appear to be astute businessmen in a sure-fire business Dodger Outfielder Pul On Suspension LOS ANGELES — to — Duke I Snider, veteran hitting star of the : Dodgers, was on suspension today i as punishment for straining a tendon in his elbow while engaging in a bit of horseplay Wednes-1 day night prior to his team’s; game with the Cubs. Manager Walt Alston, irked because the injury forced him to re-; i move Snider from the lineup and ■ change his batting, order after he 1 | had announced it? ordered Snider : l taken off the payroll “until he. is [in cohdition to play, again." Dr. Hal Wendler, team trainer, said the injury was a minor one that should not keep Snider out | of the lineup for more than a day or two. “I’ll admit Don Zimmer and I were horsing around,” Snider said after learning of his suspension, "but I hardly expected this sort of punishment.” Huntington Woman Is Killed By Train HUNTINGTON — (IP) — Ruth i Bryant, about 37, Huntington, was ( killed Wednesday when she drove > her automobile into the path of a Wabash Railroad passenger train at a crossing here.
