Reedsport edge the Umpqua Chiefs, 3-2, last night in the first round
play of the Oregon State Semi-pro Baseball tournament at Silverton.
Errors by Virg Sanders and George Sanders in the first and a
freak triple by Reedsport's Hanauska told the story of the ball game.
The statistics were all in favor.

but only 23 faced Sporer. Each
team had three errors.
The Chiefs got off to a good
start In the first when Second base
man Lovell Baker cracked out
a clean single to left .George Sand
ers walked and left fielder Bucky
Hill slapped out a single to send
Baker across for the first run.
Action Inning -
But this was a fatal inning for
Roseburg and a fruitful one for
Reedsport. Left fielder Charley
Mickelson grounded to virg band
ers, who was hampered by a bad
shoulder, and Sanders made a bad
throw to first allowing Mickelson
to travel to second. The same thing
happened when the next man,
third baseman Henry Gambit,
reached first on a had throw by
George Sanders. Mickelson went
to third and crossed the plate on
Joe Segura's screeching grounder
to second. Then Gambit scored
when shortstop Jack Fassett rap
ped a single.
Reedsport was held hitlcss as
well as runless in the next three
innings while Roseburg was trying
desoerately to make up the one run
difference. In the second, reliable
Norval Ritchey got on base with
i single, advanced to second on an
error and went to third on a wild
pitch, but was nipped at home on
, a fine return of Bus Sporer's fly
to right fielder, Joe Scgura. Baker
and George Sanders each got a

Tricky Triple
Then in the fifth ReedsDort's re
lief hurler Bill Hanauska got the
hit that broke the Chief's back.
It was an average fly to right
fielder Dick DcBernardi, who was
standing under it to make the
catch. As the ball came down,
however, it hit an electric wire and
flipped out of DeBarnardi's reach
allowing Hanauska to reach third.
Umnire Flcskes ruled him safe ac
cording to ground rules. With Han
auska on third, center fielder Pete
Goodbrod hit a single uj right to
push across the winning run.
Roseburg threatened for the last
time in the sixth. With two outs,

Just how good and how tough

bearded ex-Oregonian from Holly
wood? Douglas county wrestling follow
ers will be given the answer at the
Roseburg Armory arena Satur
day night by Frankie Stojack, for

Local mat ringbirds will admit
that Peters is formidable if he can
defeat Stojack and absorb one or
more of Frankies terrific airplane

The one-hour opener between
George Drake, the "Catalina Kid"

an interesting exhibition but in

Wilson Fails

By JIM HUBBART
(Aitociated Preaa Sportiwrlterl
With the pressure off after fail
ing to notch his 16th straight Pa
cific Coast league pitching victory,
Seattle's Jim Wilson feels much
lighter about the head and shoul
ders today.
While hard luck and a ninth inn
ing squeeze play jinxed Wilson in
his 4 to 3 setback at Hollywood
last night, Mickey Rocco and Ed
die Malone found occasion to fist
each other during the Portland
Oakland Game. Umpire Pat Orr
had to ask them to leave.
Portland won. 9 to 8. in a home
run orgy surpassed in freakishness
only by the affair at Hollywood.
Wilson experienced enough tough
breaks in that one to last him
another 28 years.
He was trying to tie the 41-year-old
PCL pitching record of 16 vic
tories in a row. He tried too hard
In the last of the ninth, Eddie
Saner tripled Hollywood's tying
run across and then scored with
the clincher on Gene Handley's
squeeze bunt.
In the Portland scrap, Joe Bro

vers each hit three runs homers
and Dick Wakefield slammed one
for the Oaks with two on Doubles

Portland seventh, pinch hitter Hil
lis Layne batted twice and reach
ed first both times on errors.
The fight? It seems that Malone,
the Oakland catcher, accused Roc
co of using a doctored bat. and
honor by way of a punch to the
Malone jaw.
Elsewhere along the circuit, Sac

his 15th win of the year, and San
