If Ron Lake feels It doesn I pay

All the Roseburg righthander did
Tuesday is throw one-nil nail at
the Cottage Grove Lions for six
and one-third frames in protecting
a slim 2 1 Roseburg lead only to
see the Lions tally two runs in Ihe
bottom of the seventh for a 3-2
victory.
Throe hits in the seventh, one
of which was questionable, gave
Ihe host Lions the win and sad
dled Ihe hard-luck hurler with his
filth setback.
Dispute
But a more important factor in
the loss was tho overruling by the
plate umpire of a decision by the
base umpire in the fateful seventh.
Lake started the seventh throw
ing to the No. 4 man in the Lion
order. Bill Munewal. Manewal sent
a routine grounder to Marv French
a short, and the throw to first by
French was into the dirt. However,
hustling catcher Chuck H i n e y
backed up first baseman Tom
Hobbs and fired a strike to French
covering at second as Manewal
attempted the extra base.
Best Best Harper
The bass umpire called Mane
wal out by three yards, but Cot
tage Grove mentor. Bill Best, ob
jected to the call. Best's assertion
was that according to ground rules
outlined prior to the start of the
contest there was an imaginary re
straining lino a specified number
of feet from the first base line.
i The runner was allowed the extra
base on a bad throw to first if
the ball went over that imaginary
line. Best claimed.
The plate umpire upheld Best's
contention, despite tho vigorous ob-
' ieclions of Tribe mentor Bill Har
per. The ruling by the plate um
pire bordered on the ridiculous
since neither of the men in blue
had arrived on tho scene until Ihe
start of the bottom of the first and
the one ground rule outlined to
them dealt with a right-field rule
regarding awarding a double on a
bit into the trees or a homer on a
ball hit over the trees at the end
of the rightfield area.
Tying Run
Rut the ruling was completed
with Ihe return to second base of
Manewal and he eventually scored
the tying run. It was a ground
rule double hit into the rightfield
trees by pinch-hitter Rich Miller
driving Manewal across.
Miller later scored the winning
run, with one away, in a single to
right by winning hurler Larry
Carr.
Homer Shot
Prior to this late inning and dis
astrous activity against the In
dians and Lake the Tribe had tal
lied a run in the second and an
other in fourth. Meanwhile, Lake
had allowed the Lions their single
hit in the second when Manewal
teed off on the 2 0 pitch for a home
run to leftfield. This round-tripper
had tied the fray at 11.
The Indians started the scoring
a Lake drew a walk from I'arr
and Mike Hatfield was hit by a
pitch. With two away, Howie Galls
nell worked Carr for another free
pats to load the bases. Hobbs rame
through with a single to right to
drive Lake across before the Lions
worked out of the inning.
Run Walked In
After the Lions had tied the con
test, the Indians came hack with
a single run in the fourth walked
across by Carr. With one out,
Hatfield drew a walk and Larry
llink followed through with a per
fect Inl and run blow to right he
hind the second baseman and Hat
held raced around to thud.
Three On
Carr continued his wildness and
Issued a walk to Walt Edmonds to
load the bases. Again Gausnell re
reived a walk as the next hitter
and an liBl as Hatfield was walk
ed across the plate.
" But there the Tribe rally ended
n as Carr worked nut of the inning
and the Indians left three men on
- base.
- Two Threats
The Inrlmns thrpatenitrt in th Inn
of the sixth and seventh innings.
In the sixth it was a single by Hut-
field to center and in the scrnth a
single to left by French. French
worked around to thud on a sto
len base and a passed ball but
there the Lions stopped the Hose
hure threat.
The Indians give Ijke -nod
harking throughout the frav and
came up with one doitbieplay
which he started. This was m the
sixth and ended a Cottage Grove
threat.
Now tha Indians have Just one
road game remaining in league ac
tion as they travel to Willam

Three Mew Finlay Records
Posted In Dual Track Meet
By BILL GOULD
News-Review Sports Editor
Three new Finlay Field records
were set Tuesday in a dual track
meet between the Grants Pass
Cavemen and the Roseburg In
dians as Ihe Cavemen topped the
Indians. 75 1-10 to 51 9-10.
Bill While and Butch Backen of
the Roseburg forces and Grants
Pass' Al Slaley all set new field
standards.
A Fast Dih
White bettered Ihe 100-yard dash
field mark set by Lynn Baxter
earlier this year when he travel
ed the distance in 10 flat. The
previous field record was JO. 1.
High jumper Backen continued
his assault on the record book as
he hit the 6-2 mark for a new
field slandard. This topped in pre
vious best at the local oval of 6-lVi,
he also set this year. Racken's best
height is S2'-j recorded at the
Havward Relays,
440 Shattered
Staley shattered Ihe field 440
yard dash record for the second
time this year as he ran Ihe race
in 52 5. Staley broke the field stand
ard in (he first local meet of the
year as he recorded a time of
53 0.
The Indians displayed strength
in most of the 15 events scheduled
and, despite winning nine of these,
lost to the Cavemen in the team
scoring. The Grants Pass club had
the talented depth necessary to
pick up numerous second and
third places for the win.
Long Draught
One outstanding win for the
Tribe was in the mile where
George Ives gave the Indians their
first mile victory in at least three
years. Ives ran the distance in a
time of 4:43.
The Indians received ' winning
performances from Ron Pinard in
the broad jump with a leap of
19-104; Ray Palm in the low and
high hurdles; White in the 100 and
220-yard dashes: Ives in the mile,
Backen in the high jump and win
ning performances from the 440
yard and 880-yard relay teams.
Shaves Mark
In winning the high hurdles,
Palm shaved one tenth of a sec
ond off his 15.5 time posted last
Friday. His 15.4 against the Cave
men missed the Finlay Field mark
and school mark by one tenth of
a second.
The teams ran a 440-yard relay,
with the Tribe foursome of Pin
ard, Tom Thurber Earl Dixon and
Bill Brothers clipping off a time
of 46.1 This mark bettered the
Junior Chamber of Commerce In
vitational Relays mark of 46.5 set
by Marshfield this year and the
46.7 time posted by tho Indians
last year.
Passes Caveman
In the 880-yard relay the Indians
trailed the Cavemen through three
baton passes hut White, the third
runner in the Tribe quartet, caught
and passed the Caveman runner
on the backstrelch and anchor man
Backen retained the small lead
and won by four yards.
