Don "Choc" Overly, popular catcher, who piloted the Timps once before, is the most prominently prom-inently mentioned for the post, and may take over as player-manager player-manager for the rest of the year. Collins, who has brought home to Provo more Industrial league championships than any other team in the league has won, has become almost a fixture in the minds of the baseball faithful, and is synonymous with the Timps in the eyes of most of the fans. A great player himself some years ago, Collins has a great love for the game, coupled with a fierce desire to win that he has i infused into his teams a spirit that has made the Timps feared the length of the league and has kept them in the running for the league title year after year. Overly, who seems to be the logical successor to Lob if he will take the" job. has played play-ed behind the plate for the locals for a number of years, and has played a big role in many of the Timp wins. The quiet, likeable athlete, one of the greatest ever turned out by Brigham Young university, is rated as the best catcher in the league and is one of the best- liked players, on or off the field, in the entire circuit. The Timps will be gunning for a win tonight over the Pinney crew, both as a farewell present to Skipper Collins and from a personal revenge standpoint, since Pinney is one of the two teams to have beaten the locals this season. The Timps hold a 2-1 victory margin over the Salt Lakers, Who are battling hard to stay in the runner-up spot in the first half standing, but that one defeat rankles the Garden City crew no end, and the entire team will be out for another win tonight. x Collins has nominated Gene Woodbury, young right-hander from BAC, to start against the Salt Lakers. Woodbury has appeared ap-peared in three games for the locals, lo-cals, had been credited with one win, charged with one loss, and lifted once in the sixth frame with the score tied. Should Woodbury falter, vet eran Lloyd Shepherd will probably prob-ably take over the mound duties for the rest of the tilt, leaving the two aces of the staff, southpaw south-paw Marion Wankier or righthander right-hander Garth Ford, ready for ac tion Sunday in the first game of the second half. The second half schedule will be drawn up at a meeting meet-ing of the league officers and managers and presidents of the various clubs which will be held in Salt Lake City -Friday night. As yet. it is not definitely known whether a sixth team will be added to the league for the second half, or whether the circuit will go on as a five-team organ ization. A team from Ogden has been prominently mentioned as a possible addition to the league, but this will be decided at the meeting Friday meeting f riday. 1 Car Department.

Walter Mulbry of Happy Chandler's office said the long time applicant for big 1 eague status would be subjected to in vestigation by the Major league's executive council. Mulbry made his announcement after a five-man committee irom the PCL met with Chandler, President Ford Frick of the National Na-tional league and President Will Harridge of the American.

Cronin Vindicated as Junior Circuit All-Stars Post Win Over National League Crew BY ED SAINSBURY United Press Sports Writer CHICAGO, July 9 (U.R) Joe Cronin, the bulging manager of the Boston Red Sox, stood vindicated vindi-cated today. Cronin's pennant winning club lost the world series last year to Eddie Dyer and his St. Louis Cardinals amid muttered asides of "poor managing." But he redeemed re-deemed his baseball reputation yesterday by directing the American Amer-ican league to a 2 to 1 victory over Dyer and the National league in the all-star baseball game. The Americans won the game on Bobby Doerr's smart base running and a pair of successful pinch hitters, but Cronin could claim credit too, for he inserted the pinch hitters, and he stood by his guns in switching pitchers in midstream. The decision on pitchers came in the last half of the eighth with the American league team ahead. Walter Masterson of Washington was on the mound for the Americans Amer-icans and there were two out and one man on base. Cronin sent in Joe Page of the Yankees to relieve the Senator star. The next man-up, big Johnny John-ny Mize of the Giants, already credited with a home run off Frank Shea, another Yankee hurl-er. hurl-er. singled to right and Willard Marshal), on base, advanced to third. Boston's Phil Masi went in to run for Mize. The crowd started griping about Cronin. "Poor judgment,'' the undertones un-dertones said. But Page was equal to the task. and Enos Slaughter, one of the same Cards which clubbed Cronin's Cro-nin's crew into submission in the 1946 world series, wasn't. He grounded to Lou Boudreau. the Cleveland manager who played short for the Americans and the home team National leaguers went scoreless in the eighth. Page came through for Cronin Cro-nin again in the ninth, and he sent the Nationals back to their dugout and the clubhouse, club-house, losers again for the 10th time in the 14 games in which the two leagues have matched their best. Cronin was on the spot. If his team lost he was open to accu sations of failure to brief his pitchers on the rival batsmen There were complaints that Cronin's Cro-nin's club wasn't playing to win that Cronin was more interested in overlooking the eight players from the league-leading New York Yankees. It didn't work that way. The Nationals scored fir?t when Mize a veteran of the circuit, smashed a home run into the sixth row of the right field bleachers in the fourth. It was a slider pitch by Yankee rookie Shea which Mize clubbed out of the park, and it wasn t enough. The American leaguers were still in the game, but it wasn't until the sixth . that Cronin sent in his first pinch hitter, aging Luke Appling, the shortsop of the Chicago White Sox.

A deadlock was all the Americans needed. One inning in-ning later the . bombshell came. Johnny Sain of Billy Southworth's Boston Braves was on the mound, and he put out George McQulnn of the Yanks. But Bobby Doerr, another an-other Boston player, was too much. He singled to left and on Sain's next pitch stole second. sec-ond. Doerr left the pitcher alone then, for one pitch. On the next he took a lengthy lead off second, danced and pranced, and watched poor John throw the ball wide into center field. There was plenty of time for him to romp to third. Stan Spence went in to hit for Shea and the Senator outfielder smashed a single to right as Doerr came home with time to spare. For Cronin, it was astute managing; man-aging; for Dyer and his National leaguers it was tough luck. The game drew 41,123 paid customers, cus-tomers, nearly 2,000 under expectations, expec-tations, and contributed $105,-314.90 $105,-314.90 to the players' pension fund.

The Angels widened the gap over second-place San Francisco by trouncing Hollywood Hol-lywood 5-1 yesterday while Oakland edged the ex-champion ex-champion Seals 3-1 in a lucky 10th inning. San Diego cooled Portland 5-2 in a battle of home runs, and Seattle's last-place Raimers upset up-set Sacramento with a sound 8-2 thumping. Johnny Ostrowsle, Los Angeles' slugging third baseman, wielded the big stick in overcoming the Stars. His home run in the fifth inning tied the score and his double in the sixth batted home a pair of winning runs. Alvin Glossop capped "the rout in the same frame with a home run that scored Ostrowski ahead of him. It was another unlucky night for big Cliff Melton, the San Francisco pitcher whose outstanding out-standing mound performances all season have been marred by erratic support.
