O Sports Here and There by Al Ablctt So again West Jordan will be in the national news, as the Jay Fuilmer vs Miceli fight will be jun national TV. This should be a good scrap for Jay. In Miceli ho is meeting an experienced fighter tihait 'has a pretty fair record, and at least a name that is well known. This is just, the type of fight that Jay needs at this stage of his career. If he wins this one Jenson, his man-ager, should have little trouble placing him in some of the East-ern cities with a good TV pay-off. Jay of the three FuHmers, looks like the one with the most finese. He is what is known in the trade as a boxer, puncher, and up to now has fought Jus best when stung. Miceli is a good rugged boy that likes to mix it so it should be a pleasing fight to watch, and under ' the sitars with the weather like 'it is, for the fight fan, it should foe a plea-sant evening. As usual with the West Jordan promotion, all of the net proceeds goes into their park and playground fund. The Salt Lake Bees have been holding their own on tihe road, and with Bernier and Stuart hat-ting the foall like they are, all they need is a little more pitch-ing to be a real contender. I saw this hoy Green they are getting in the 5tih Army Tournament last year. Looks like he had pretty good stuff, but of course he should be in much better con-dition playing every day. A good many of the Bingham boys from Puerto Rico know Carlos Bernier and Melendez has a cousin living in our town. So that is one of the reasons for the good following from here. I reported to you on one of the fellows who is tearing the lea-gue apart, Leon Wagner with Phoenix. This fellow is only a couple of years away. One of the. outstanding players in the lea-gue that we have seen is Shet-ron- e, centerfielder for Vancou- - ver. Spokane, the team, playing the Bees this week, has several good looking Los Angeles prospects. Some of them probably be call-e- d up, if the Bums don't get go-ing soon. Say how about thise Giants? Not bad for a team that was picked to finish Gth. Al B.D.AA FLASHES by Jim Abplanalp BALL FIELD STARTED Construction of a temporary 'baseball playing field started Tuesday on vacant property di-rectly east of Copperton, and more work will be done this week.

If possible, a league will he organ-ized for boys 13 and 14 years of age also. Help will still foe need-ed to manage teams, and for umpires and scorekeepers. Practice should begin soon on the recreation field, and league play will begin as soon as teams can be organized. AH youngsters wishing to play baseball this summer should con-tact Udell Wonkier, Del Schick or Mick Culieton, or report to the recreation ball field. BY LYN CONNELLY ""pHE Emmy awards tor "the best in television" have been handed out tor another year and while most of them were deserved We can't help but wonder out loud about certain, omissions . , . We were happy to see Dinah Shore come in for her share ot glory be-cause we know of no one else who so deserves it V. . She's sunny and bright and ' haa the very happy knack of "being able, to lilt the most disheartened Viewer out of his doldrums . . . She's an ex-tremely hard worker and will do most anything to Improve the show.' We thought Jack Benny's award for excellence was well deserved, too, but thought the one he received for the best Job of portraying himself should have gone to Ferry Como, who was sad-ly neglected this year . . . We thought, too, that her colleagues could have paid tribute to Oracle Allen . . . This great comedienne ends 36 years of show business with her retirement this season . . She looks Just as young and is just as as always and we scowled when she was ignored last year, but this year when she will have no further chance to compete, it . seems unforgivable that she should have been ignored again . . . What modern comedienne can endure 36 years', exposure? Another serious omission In our book was Flayhpuse 90's produc-tion of ".The Miracle Worker'" . . . Here was a tensely dramatic, ter-rifically, performed play about Helen Keller as a child that held the viewer completely enthralled . . . Yet neither the stars, the di-rector or the writer won a dande-lion or their achievement ... In-stead, an unoriginal story about a show business personality, "The Comedian," won the Emmy for the best writer, Rod Serling, who also won last year with a light-weight drama about a heavyweight.
