Fri. June 13, 1958 j Fiegel, Vik Coaches Ignite Laughs During MC Banquet By BILL GOULD News-Review Sports Writer "Determination and desire are the key factors which make a win ning team." So said Al Fiegel, speaker at the Myrtle Creek High School baseball and track banquet Thursday night. He continued, "The men who possess these two attributes are the ones who arrive at the top of the heap. This is true in sports as well as in all phases of life." Fiegel pointed out the role played by the mothers and fathers in all too often overlooked by fans. He said, ''Mom 'and dad are the un sung heroes of any athletic team." The Roseburg man kept the as sembled group laughing with his humorous quips and closed out his comments by wishing the Myrtle Creek fans luck during the forth coming Legion baseball season. His words on this thought were, "1 hope your Legion team wins all its games except two." Those two, obviously, are the two on tap with the Lockwood Motors nine in Dist rict One action. Coaches Present Players Frosty Loghry and Bob Abraham son introduced their players and made some interesting comments. Loghry called on the three sen iors who will be lost from this year's Viking baseball team. Don Bishop, Ed Cearly and Jim Mur ray all' plaved their final year at Myrtle Creek. Two juniors received specil no tice from their coach, albeit of du bious nature. Rick Cearly was singled out by Loghry for a humorous incident which occurred while Cearly was a JV player. Loghry was umpiring the bases and Cearly, a Iefthanded batter, was hitting against south paw chucker After striking out twice, Loghry called to him as he went to his outfield position. He suggested Cearly move in a little closer to the plate, as the southpaw was whiffing Cearly with a curve which was breaking away from him.

Down 3-1 going into the bottom of the sixth, the Winston club connected for one hit along with seven Vet's errors to cross the plate four times.

Mentor Ribs Devidson The Vik coach also remindtd Wes Davidson that Davidson is part owner of a new state high school baseball record for Multno mah Stadium. That record, is of course, the home run hit out of the Portland park by a prepper in the A-2 championship game. Davidson cooperated fully. He dished up the pitch which Bill Lukens blasted into the left field bleachers. Loghry received the key to the city from Mayor Bud Groom, as a token of appreciation for the work Loghry has done with the Viks. The "key" was a foot long and was imbedded in a "key chain" six feet long! Abrahainson praised the work of the four Viks who brought back the state high school Class A-2 track trophy from Corvallis. Frank Shirtcliff, Brad Goff, Bob Paine and Murray were cited for the work in the sprints and on their state record-setting relay team. Murray Lauded Murray, who was working and unable to be present, prompted a special comment from the track mentor. The Vik relay anchor man was mentioned in this way by Abrahamson, "Murray is always in good shape. His fine running has been helped by extra condi tioning laps he has taken upon himself." He concluded. "Murray spends his off-hours sprinting up and down the driveway of his girl-friends's home!" The banquet was handled nicely by Master of Ceremonies, Frank Young with Bob Kellcy, banquet chairman, introducing the main speaker. At the end of the evening, a short film of the Viking-Glide UVL title game was shown and action of the Vik track in the sub district track meet.

(AP) Twenty years ago Dick Metz, then a star of the pro golf circuit, had the National Open championship all wrapped up going into the last round, only to lose it with a hor rible 79. Today Metz, a weather-beaten 50, was out in front again as the Open went into its second round. And he probably was the only per son on the premises who thought he had as good a chance of stay ing ahead as the two players who were tied with him. Sharing the lead with Metz aft er an opening day in which no one could equal par on the heatseared, I windswept Southern Hills course were tommy Bolt and Julius Bor os. They shot 71 real good golf on a rugged day when some of golf's best known stars had to settle for 75s. Southern Hills' par is 35-3570 for a tough hilly 6,907-yard layout. The heat and the wind made it play tougher yesterday and caused frequent errors of judgment in ap proaching the greens. Sarazen Fires 84 "A harrowing. heartbreaking experience" was what veteran Gene Sarazen called it after post ing a score of 84. Thefe were plen ty of others who agreed with him. Metz, who finished second to Ralph Guldahl in the 1938 Open after his memorable blowup, last played in the championship in 1954. Since then he's been running a ranch, playing in a few minor tour naments each year and consider ing himself as retired. He's dead serious when he says he is in shape and can play good golf right through the tournament. But most observers feel the weight of 50 years will be a bit too much when it comes time to play 36 holes in the heat Saturday. Boros is a stone-faced, solid 220 pounder who never seems to be disturbed by heat. At 38, he's about a year younger than the "new" Bolt, who says he finally has con quered his temper. Two Vets At 72 One stroke behind going into the second round were Lloyd Man grum, another tested veteran who won the Open in 1946, and 35-vear-old Frank Stranahan. Two behind at 73 were 48-year-old Jimmy De marct and Bruce Crampton, a 22-year-old Australian pro. All that helped make the 75 shooters look pretty good. There were 20 of them, including Ben Hogan, a four-time winner of the Open who would like to be the first to win a fifth, twice-champion Cary Middlecoff, and Sam Snead, who never has won the big one.

The 4-2 setback came at the hands of the Seattle Rainiers last night, reducing the M o ii n t i e ' league lead to two games over Phoenix, winners of an 18-11 slug fest with Salt Lake City. Seattle's win coupled with Spo kane's 4-2 victory over Porlalnd re sulted in some shuffling of lower division ranks while San Diego was moving virtually into a third place tie with Salt Lake by drub-i bing the Solons 10-2. I The high-riding Mounties ap-! pcared en route to fifth straight shutout as the haples-s Rainiers churned through' six scoreless in nings while Vancouver establish- j ed a 2-0 lead. i Gordie Sundin, who hadn't been I scored up'jn in 31 1-3 innings,! weakened in the seventh, however, and Seattle tied it up with the combination of a single, double, sacrifice fly, a walk and a double! steal. Double Scores Clincher Vada Pinson got aboard in the eight on a fielder's choice in the eighth and scored the clincher on Jim Dyck's double. Jack Bloom field tripled and tallied on a follow-up single for the insurance run in the ninth. Sundin was the loser and Chuck Churn, a seventh inning reliever, the winner. Phoenix rattled the boards with 15 hits as it broke a batting slump that cost it five of its last six games. The Giants' barrage included a 10-run fourth inning W i Li.

Padres Bunch Runs The issue never was in doubt at San Diego, the Padres piling up 10 runs in the first four in nings. Sacramento would probab ly have gone home with a goose egg if a dropped ball hadn't let in two runs in the eighth and spoiled Hal Woodeschick's possible shut out. Woodeschick gave up only five hits while the Padres collected 18 from five Solon hurlers. Spokane's win over Portland dropped the Beavers into last place again and left the Indians in a tie fnr civlh with Seattle It was no batting spree for eith er team, with each getting only seven safeties, but Spokane bunched its blows better. Jim Ba.xes led the Indian attack, get ting a triple and a homer in four, trips and scoring twice. Dick Hanlon rang up his seventh win against five losses but needed relief in the seventh.
