Scoreboard

P: The College All-Stars. 13 1/2-point underdogs, looked like pushovers for the World Champion Detroit Lions, but by the time the 25th annual All-Star football game (at Chicago's Soldier Field) was over, the college kids had twisted the Lions' tails in a 35-19 victory. After a slow start, the All-Stars put pressure on Lion Quarterbacks Tobin Rote and Bobby Layne, soon got their own offense going. Two Cleveland Browns draftees, Quarterback Jim Ninowski and Halfback Bob Mitchell, teamed up on spectacular pass plays of 84 and 18 yds. for touchdowns. Bobby Conrad of Texas A. & M., who had never kicked a field goal before, booted 4-for-4 from distances of 19 to 44 yds., also added three points-after-touchdown. P: Two seasons ago Manager-of-the-Year Birdie Tebbetts led the power-packed but pitching-poor Cincinnati Redlegs out of the National League's second division for the first time in twelve years and finished third, just two games behind the pennant-winning Dodgers. Tebbetts was not satis-- fied, traded in search of pennant-class pitching. But the Redlegs skidded to last place this season. Birdie, who once said, "A manager should never quit," decided last week to resign, became the fourth major-league manager to bow out this year (the others: Detroit's Jack Tighe, Cleveland's Bobby Bragan, Philadelphia's Mayo Smith). Best bet to succeed him: fiery, onetime Big-League Infielder (Cubs, Dodgers, Braves, Giants, Cardinals) and Manager (Cardinals) Eddie Stanky. P: Calumet Farm's Tim Tarn, winner of the 1958 Kentucky Derby and Preakness, runner-up in the Belmont Stakes even though he fractured a sesamoid bone during the race, was judged incapable of carrying assigned racing weights despite successful corrective surgery, will be retired to stud in Lexington, Ky. Unplaced in his only race of 1957, the stylish colt, son of Tom Fool, won ten of 13 races this year, earned $467,200.
