ANGELS TRIM
 OAKS; SAB0L KNOCKED OUT

LOS ANGELES. Oct 8-lR- They're still playing baseball in the Pacific Coast League but the Los Angeles Angels started off with intent to make short work of the final-positively-playoff series.
 The Angels trimmed Oakland Az last night in the first game of their best seven for the Gov ernor's Cup. The teams play here tonight and tomorrow night, then move to Oakland
 Selected pitchers for tonight were Red Adams G4-12) for Los Angeles and Damon Hayes 42-10 for the Oaks.
 Last night Bob Mccall won fol Los Angeles, limiting Oakland tC seven hits, with a ninth inning assist from Jess Doternic, after Mccall left for a pinch hitter in the eighth. Gene Bearden was the losing pitcher
 Oaklands Tony Sabol was badly hurt as he caught Larry Barton'S long fly to end the Angels hall of the seventh. Making the long running catch, he crashed into the railing of the rightfield stands knocking himself out but hanging onto the ball so grimly it had tc be pried from his glove.
 The game was held up about 2C minutes while he was given first aid, then taken to hospital where he was kept overnight, doctors reporting he suffered a mild con cuSsion, lacerations of the left jaw bruises on the left cheek and eye lid.

The breed grunted and fell
silent again, nor would he speak
except barely to answer a word
or two for the rest of that long
afternoon. But by this time, the
man who followed him already
knew the story; a gesture there,
a half admission here, even a
startled glance at some particular
turn of the trail which he was
being forced to follow, were
enough to fill out the skeleton

At Last the Demand Is Great
Dana Andrews Now Is Sought by All, but
1t Took Him Nine Years
By SheiIoh Grohom

II asked for the moon-and I

more in demand by Hollywood pro-
ducers and leading ladies than any
other man his size, weight, or what

because Sam had given him Dana
for the picture.
And" says Dana with pardon

told me that If there is any story
or play I want to make, they'll
stake me up to $4,000 to buy IT.
for them to produce, OF course.
This all started nine years ago
when Dana was earning $50 a week
and was used chiefly by Goldwyn
to frighten David Niven into being
a good boy. 80
According to both Niven and An
drews, David was anxious to star
in "Raf1es," but not anxious to
make another picture that Sam had
planned for him. so was dressed
up as Raff1es and made to test for
the part on the same stage that
David was making a picture with
Loretta Young" says Dana, and he
laughs now. But 1t was no laughing
matter then, to encounter Niven's
glare every time they met on the
sound stage. They are good friends
now and laugh at the incident. But
YOU can see that growing up into
a top movie star Is not as easy as
the dream writer's want you to be-
lieve.

"The idea is abroad generally"
says Dana. that movie stars have

ed Gloom" our new epic. You are

Coming down to cases. Dana says
that the story of Lana Turner being
discovered at a soda fountain and
becoming a star is a lot of eyeWash.
"She may have been found at a
soda fountain, all right" he con-
cedes, "but she studied and played
small roles for nearly three years
before she got a break"
Linda Darnell, like Dana. a
Texan, is usually regarded as a
Cinderella but she, too. worked hard
and long before winning recogni-
ton. Starting in earliest childhood,
she worked in fashion shows, church
plays-in fact. did everything pos
sible to prepare herself for her
present situation in life says Dana.
Furthermore, after she finally
landed a studio contract, she had
long periods of bad pictures and
no pictures at all. Linda is lucky
to be beautiful and lucky to be tai
ented, but nothing has been handed
to her. Her present role in For

Nice, But Not Loud Enough
By Jack OBrion

NEW YORK.
"The Whole World Over" an
amiable little collection of foot
light nonsense which opened few
days ago at the Biltmore Theater,
has very little chance, to my way
of thinking, of becoming broad
way success.
1t is not at all dull, Is generally
amusing, and includes some pleasant
characters who say and do funny
things. Coming from Hollywood,
1t probably would have been well
coined as some new and furiously
successful film comedy formula.
Sad to recount, however, merely
mild little theatrical pleasantries
don't seem to go on Broadway. If
a play Is simply bit of amusing
fluff, it seems fated to drag along
a few weeks. swiftly exhausting its
clientele, before heading disconso-
lately for Gains Warehouse. On
Broadway nice little things aren't
accepted with open arms, or even
open palms. The greatest. fun
niest, loudest, moodiest. loveliest,
most tuneful, brashest, even on oc-
casion, the dirtiest, have the in
side track.
Nothing Heavy.
Therefore, while I view THE
Whole World Over" as a nice little
addition to the seasons pleasantries,
the chances are it will be gone in
a month or two after running up a
deficit for producers and hackers
encouraged by moderate praise
from critics.
This mildly merry little divertisse-
ment is Konstantine Simonov
comedy adapted from the Russian
by Thelma Schnee Unlike good
many Russian plays 1t contains no
heavy propaganda preachments nor
international Soviet subtleties but Is
simply postwar comedy which
could have been written about
