Umpqua Chiefs
Make Showing
In Fast Tilt
Ninth Inning Scores
By Visitors Turn Tide;
Krause Allows 6 Hits
By DAN MINDOLOVICH
News-Review SporU Writer
A jam-packed to overflowing
spectator crowd saw the lamed
Harlem Globetrotters grind out
a 6-2 win over the Roseburg
.Umpqua Chiefs at Finlay field
last night.
It was a thrilling, hard-fought
battle from start to finish and
the outcome was not for certain
until the crucial ninth inning,
when the. visitors forged ahead
; with three runs on two hits and
an error.
Globetrotter Pitcher Joe Bank
head stopped the Chiefs cold for
five innings, then allowed only
two hits, while Roseburg's iron-
; armed Mel Krause was tapped
for six bingles after holding the
Trotters hitless the first three
frames.
Ted Wilson and Jerry Hugg'ns
. were the only Chiefs able to con
nect with Bankhead's flashy as
sortment of throws.
The Trotters were first to
score. In the third inning Leon
Wheeler, who reached first on an
error, tallied on Herb Simpson's
. double. Jesse Williams was hit
by a bad pitch, then Zell Miles
scored both runners with a boom
ing fly into center good for three
bases.
Bunky Hill, starting Roseburg
on a short-lived rally in the sixth,
banged out a two-base hit. Bobby
Sanders took over for Hill and
scored on another "Trotter error.
Roseburg's second tally came
in the eighth. Krause drew a
base on balls then scored on Wil
son's single.
Two 'Trotter home run at
tempts were squelched once by
a spectacular relay from deep
right field and another time,
when Williams failed to touch
iirst.
Huggins was forced to chase
Ameal Brooks' long drive into
right field in the first instance.
As Brooks headed for home,
Huggins relayed the ball to Wil
son, who threw to Koch, who
threw to Coor.
Brooks was a very surprised
lad when he saw Coor had him
by a good two feet.
Williams' fruitless home run
journey in the ninth started the
visitors on their second scoring
spree. The action moved swiftly
at this point almost too swiftly
to follow.
"'Allies singled" Into right then
Sonny Smith came up with an
identical blow. Miles scored on
a passed ball, then James Fish
back firsted on a bobble by
Krause. v
The ball made a fast circuit
from pitcher to first to third as
the Chiefs tried to nab what ap
peared to be a lot of base run
ners, all at once.
A heated argument developed
immediately thereafter as to
whether or not Smith was caught
on a stolen base try to third. Earl
Hampton was retired to the dug
out when the argument got out
of hand.
Smith stole home during the
shuffle, then Fishback did the
same as Dick Kitamura struck
out.
Another argument developed
between Manager Earl Sargent
and Plate Umpire Al Flegel as
to whether or not Fishback
should have been called out at
home. Fishback continued to be
safe after the argument ceased.
Although Roseburg lost, the
game was considered by fans to
be one of the top actions played
here this year.
The visitors put on a fine per
formance both in the gag depart
ment and'in the serious-business
portion of the show.-
Roseburg came through with
some fine action itself and only
in the ninth were the Chiefs
thrown for a loss.
Mel Krause dazzled the fans
with a neat bit of cutoff action
in the fourth. Coor tried to pick
off a 'Trotter running going into
second, but Mel intercepted the
peg, chased Miles, who was head
ing for home, then lobbed the
ball to Hampton who made the
putout.
The game was sparked with

Three-Bout Wrestling Card
Offered At Armory Tonight
On of the mot interesting, colorful and promising wrestling
shows of the season will be presented at the Roseburg armory
tonight it 8:30, featured by a coast light-heevyweight tourna
ment match between Buck Weaver, Bloomington, Ind., and Jack
Kiser, Portland, Ore.
The show opens with a one-fall bout In which Dale Kiser, Jack's
18-year-old brother, will be making his local pro debut against
Billy Hunter, talented young star from Vancouver, B. C. Kiser
is considered the most promising young grappler to appear on
the scene for years.
The semi-final will match Navy Al Williams, Chicago villain,
against Sugi Hayamaki, jiu-jitsu exponent a match in which
the Jap from Oklahoma may turn into a knock-down, drag-out
with his "sleeper" hold.
Major interest will be on the Weaver-Kiser tilt, however, and
one of the largest .crowds of the season is expected to watch
Weaver attempt to move into a tie with the Yaqui Kid for the
lead in the tourney standings and Kiser is just the type of mat
man who can upset the ex-collegian.
Elton .Owen will referee all three matches.

Czech Tennis Players
Are Evading Diplomats
GSTAAD, Switzerland, July 16.
OP) While security police kept
a wary eye on Czechoslovakian
diplomats, tennis stars Jaroslav
Drobny and Vladimir Cernik,
who renounced the Communist
Czech government, faced each
other today in the semifinals of
the Swiss championships.
Droby defeated Cernik 60, 6-1
and will play Earl Cocheli of the
United States in the finals to
morrow. The two gave strict orders to
the Swiss that they were not
to be contacted for any reason
whatsoever by members of the
Czech legation and their wish
es apparently were being carried
out.
Jan Zalenka, cultural attache
of the Czechs, demanded to be
taken to their room, but was re
fused. He then said he wished
to talk to them by phone, but
the Swiss security police, who
were rushed from Bern to pro
tect the athletes, also vetoed that
Idea.

Howie Pollet
Aiding Dyer's
Pennant Hopes
St. Louis Cards Post
1 To 0 Victory Over
Brooklyn; Braves Win
By JACK HAND
Associated Press Sportswrtter
Howie Pollet, who peddles In
surance for Skipper Eddie Dyer
in the winter, is selling many
National league fans a pennant
policy on the St. Louis Cards.
The slim iefthanded pitcher
is helping Boss Dyer meet his
premiums as Card manager with
a fine 12-5 record that makes
him top winner in the league.
Dyer has been criticized freely
for stringing along with his vet
eran players. Pollet, because he
showed nothing in 1947 and only
fair stuff last season, was an
open target. Eddie never gave ui)
on Howard, who pitched for him
back In his old Texas league days
at Houston.
Find Pennant Charm
Pollet didn't let Dyer down
either. He lost his first two this
season and readily retired to the
bullpen to. find his stuff. After
four relief jobs he found the old
1946 pennant charm.
Knowing that Brooklyn al
ready had protected its lead by
whacking Cincinnati in an aft
ernoon game, 11-5, Pollet took
the hill last night in Philadel
phia. A win was a must for the
Birds.
Pollet and Robin Roberts hook
ed up in a 0-0 duel just like the
one Lanier lost to Ken Hcintzel
man Thursday night on a 10
score. It went down to the sev
enth with no score until Pollet's
single drove home Eddie Kazak
who had walked. Joe Garagiola's
single had moved Kazak around
Into scoring position. That was
all the scoring of another 1-0
game.
Sensational Catches
Another veteran Cardinal of
the old pennant-winning days,
Enos Slaughter, robbed the Phils
of two scoring chances with sen
sational catches on Richie Ash
burn and Willie Jones.
Brooklyn's lead remained at
11 games because the Dodgers
helped Don Newcombe hobble
home to his seventh win with
homers by Tommy Brown, Roy
Campanella and Jackie Robin
son. Warren Spahn of Boston, vic
tim of four unearned runs in
the first inning of Tuesday's all
star game, had errorless support
from the Braves in his 6-1 win
over Chicago. Spahn hit a two
run homer in the second off
Warren Hacker.
Boston clubbed the Cub pitch
ers for 13 hits, four by Pete
Reiser. Jeff Heath, playing his
first regular game since he broke
his ankle, turned In a" flawless
performance In left field and
got one single' in five trips to the
plate.
Hurls Shutout
Another shutout pitching Job
stretched the New York Yankees'
American league lead to 6i
games. Eddie Lopat blanked the
St. Louis Browns, 6 0, while run
nerup Cleveland lost to Phila
delphia 8-0.
Yoei Berra. who never hit a
home run in his home town of.
St. Louis, finally made the grade
with two blasts while Lopat turn
ed in a five-hitter. Allie Rey.
nolds blanked the cellar club
Thursday night with only three
hits.
The As knocked Cleveland's
Bobby Feller out of the box, ru
ining his five-game win streak
with an 8-0 pasting. Dick Fowler,
supposedly troubled by a sore
arm, made the world .champs
look bad with a seven-hitter that
broke a tribe four-game win
string.
Boston's fancy eight-game win
splurge was halted by Detroit on
a four-run rally in the ninth in
ning, 8-7.
Washington came up with a
big eighth inning, scoring six
runs to dump Chicago, 9-4.

Coast Pitchers
Causing Hitters
Plenty Trouble
By GRAHAM BERRY
Associated Preaa Sportawrlter
Coast league pitchers are be
ginning to give batters plenty of
irouDie. lane unaney schanz,
Ken Holcombe and Hal Saltzman,
for instance.
Schanz notched his 14th win
last night, twirling Seattle to a
5-1 triumph over San Francisco.
Charley gave up only four hits
and for the first six frames al
lowed only one Seal past first.
Walt Judnlch singled, then ram
bled to second when Schanz
balked.
Judnich accounted for the lone
Seal run with a homer in the
seventh. The Rainiers scored
three times in the ninth on two
walks,- a pair of singles and a
force. Seattle leads the series,
two games to one.
Holcombe held Hollywood to
six safeties as Sacramento trim
med the loop leaders 6-3. It was
his 12th victory. The Solons
chased Pinky Woods In the sec
ond with a five-run outburst.
The trick was turned on three
walks, three singles and a double.
The solons have the series edge
two to one.
Saltzman checked Los Angeles
with six hits while Portland beat
the Angels 6-2, taking a three
zero series edge. The Beavers
collected all their runs in the
sixth frame, homers by Leo
Thomas -and Jim Gladd account
ing for five of them.
In marking off his 11th win,
rookie Saltzman walked seven,
but fanned five.
San Diego shaded Oakland 5-4,
with Orestes Minoso's seventh
frame single producing the win
ning run. The Acorns had tied
the count 4-4 In the sixth on
Jackie Jensen's three-run homer.
Dain Clay scored four of the
Padre runs, helping Jess Flores
turn In his 12th pitching victory
of the year.
The win gave the Padres a
two-one series edge.

Norm West still leads the line
up, although three other Chiefs'
men have larger percentage fig
ures. West dropped down from .386
to .365 In six games, but his
at bat record of 115 official trips
and his hitting mark of 42 bin
gles outdistances the entire field.
George Sanders, In 107 trips
to the plate,' is hiting .355, a
slight drop from his earlier .361
mark.
Barney Koch continues to pace
the top four hitters with .373.
His earlier figure was .421. Koch
has had some tough luck at the
plate recently, and an 0-4 and
a 0-3 batting mark in two recent
tilts cut his score to the quick,
albeit not alarmingly so.
Huggins dropped to .345. On
June 30, he was hitting .379. He
Is now topped by Hal Edgar
(.349), and George Sanders,
whom he headed in the earlier
batting average release.
Don Reed gained the paper
lead again, by virtue of 3-4 game
at Bandon on the fifth. He's next
to the top with a .471.
Then there's manager Earl
Sargent, who sets a fine example
for the team by batting an even
1.000.
The team as a whole Is averag
ing .310 at the plate. This Is a
10-point drop over the earlier
.320 mark.
In 27 games, the Chiefs were
at bat 812 times. 204 runs were
scored on 252 hits.
