(A1) The Southern all-stars biased five home runs out of Capilano stadium here last night to crush the North 13-4 in the Pacific Coast league's annual All-Star game. A near-capacily crowd of 8349 watched manager Red Davis' power hitters snow under their northern opponents. After each team scored two runs in the first, the north took its only lead briefly the second on singles bv Jim Baxes, Charlie White and pinch hitter Al Lary. The south tied it up with an unearned run in the third, then broke the contest wide open with a four-run outburst in the sixth inning. Carlos Bernier lofted a 865 foot homer oxer the left field wall to start it off.

It was in the eighth that the southern squad really went to work Three homers sailed out of the park in that one. The crowd was the largest of the year at Vancouver and exceeded by almost 2000 the attendance at Los Angeles in 19,57 Spokane pitcher Dick Hanlon, originally announced as the starting pitcher, came in as a reliefer in the fifth inning. lie was charged with the loss, giving up four runs on four hits in the sixth.

During the performance as guns roared, bells clanged and women screamed Olson turned to the audience and remarked: Well, anyhow, we're keeping you awake.

The feeling in this corner is that Biagan, too, will keep 'em awake as he attempts to pull the Indians from their seventh-place spot in the Facific Coast league to at least a place in the first division. That isnt going to be an easy job but Bragan's recot as a manager both in the majors and for eight years in the high minors, indicates he's the man most likely to succeed, Bobby has never had a second-division finisher in the minors and he had things popping in his two seasons with Pittsburgh. The dismissal of Goldie Holt marks the third time in recent Spokane baseball history that the front office has deemed it necessary to make a mid-season switch in skippers. If this one is as successful as the other two everybody should be happy.

The Indians started winning and climbed to fourth place in the Western International league before the season was over. The next ypar they won the pennant, under Leishman. The best remembered changp, however, was in 1918 when Dolph Camilll was hned lo replace the aging Buddy Ryan. Camilli took the Indians fmm a near-cellar position, far back of the loaders and hustled them into a pennant on the last day of the season. Ever since Camilli's mastnful job of piloting things have hern tough for Spokane managers.

In 1918 the Indians had a fine ball club. But Ryan, who was getting well along in years, couldn't get them to put out 100 per cent In every game. That wheie Dolph shined. He got em hustling and they won, and kept winning.

Bragan may not he blessed with all of the best players in the Coast league but there aie those who feel the Indians have much more potential than they have shown. Bobby has a reputation for getting a lot of hustle out of his players and It may be that he can repeat the Camilll miracle. If he even comes close he'll make a lot of fans happy. 4th of July Special SI ON SHORT SLEEVE SPORTS SHIRTS Buy One Shirt at the Kegulnr Prl e. $2 95 Get the Second Shirt i Invtftt bk Plu 154 1mpr al gflTil'a 5 A Swell Guy cl 5 -r BASEBALL 7 I Spokane Indians v.
