For the second time in eight r'diyi, Wynn's former White Sox teammates spoiled his try for No. 300 even though the Indians ral lied In the ninth to pull out a 4-3 triumph.

Sat, June 29, 1963 Haystack Calhoun Outlasts Six Opponents To Claim $400 Prize In Mat Match Friday Haystack Calhoun left Roseburg $400 richer and with a host of new fans as the mat giant outlasted six opponents in the featured Battle Kovii rnuav at ine tairgrounas. As soon as me otner six louna the 601-Dound wrestler immovable, they turned on each other. Rocky Coluinbo was the first to go over the top to be disqualiiied, wltn lai alina George Drake and Andre Drappe following in short order. The capacity crowd howled with delight as Calhoun and flashy Abe Jacobs teamed up to deal Soldat (iorky and ivan namcrou somo brutal blows during the ensuing ac tion. Calhoun, by far the biggest wres tier in the ring, and Jacobs, the smallest of the seven in the Battle Royal, performed some nitty team work with the world's biggest wres tler serving as an anchor for Ja cobs who spent a lot of time in the air throwing fists and feet at the Russians. The only thing thot seemed to bother Calhoun was when the Rus sians managed to get their hands twisted in his beard and a few sneaky eye-gouges. While Calhoun was recovcrinc from the eye-goug ing, Gorky and Kameroff teamed up to eliminate Jacobs from the main event However, Calhoun was more than the two ring "Toughica" could han dle as he took one in each arm and tossed them over the top rope in a heap. With his mighty heave of the two Russians, Calhoun prov ed himself "king of the mountain" and collected the added J400 purse. In the preliminary bouts Drake and Drappe battled to a hard fought draw, Kameroff took a one fall decision from Coin mho and Jacobs was awarded a decision over Gorky on a disqualification. Kameroff came off the ropes .Jacobs with waving handbags and with a hangman's noose to win cup, 0f hot coffee which they his bout with the hard-hitting ex- ,win.rt i ihm. n h. Rian boxer, Columbo.

Jacobs came hack strong in the second fall after being tossed out of the ring, and surprised Gorky with a rolling toe hold which prov ed fatal to the veteran. The final and deciding fall turned into a brawl as Gorky tossed his smaller opponent out of the ring. When Gorky started to follow to add insult to injury, several wom en spectators came to the aid of! a disqualification. y FRED DOWN UPI Sports Writer If Warren Spahn is still good, enough to rout a 15-year-old jinx,' who is to say that two of the National League's most honored pitching records are beyond his reach? ' The marks in question are the. 13 20-victory seasons achieved by, Christy Mathewson and the career total of 373 wins compiled by both Slatheivson and Grover Cleveland Alexander in the days of the dead ball. Both records have been regard ed as unassailable by modern pitchers but then again the 42-year-old native of Buffalo, N.Y., is neither an "old timer" nor a "modern" but a pitcher for all ages. I Soahn took another bold step toward his twin goab and in the j bargain chased a ls-ycar-old Jinx Friday night when lie pitched a three-hitter that gave the Mil-! waukee Braves a 1-0 win over the , Los Angeles Dodgers. The victory i (1) was his 11th of the season, i placing him more than halfway toward his 13th 20-triumph season (2) the 338th of his career, leav ing him 35 shy of the all-time NL mark and (3) marked the first time he has beaten the Dodders away from his home park since Aug. 21, 1948. Struck Out Two Spahn struck out only two bat ters but didn't walk one in besting Dodger ace Don Drysdale and raisins his season mark to n-3. i The Braves scored the only run i of the game in the first inning I when they filled the bases on sin-1 gles by Lee Mayo and Hank Aaron, a walk to Eddie Mathews and a sacrifice fly by catcher Joe' lorre. Torre also came to his battery mate's aid in the ninth inning when he cut down Dodger speeds ter Maury Wills trying to scram ble back to first base after an abortive stolen base attempt. The St. Louis Cardinals re tained first place with a 9-2 tri umph over the Houston Colts, the San Francisco Giants downed the Cincinnati Reds. 7-3. the Chicaco Cubs edged out the Philadelphia I Phillies, 4-3, and the Pittsburgh! Pirates beat the New York Mels, 1 3-1, in other NL action. j In the American League, the Boston Rod Sox nipped the New York Yankees, 4-3, the Minnesota Twins routed the Washington Sen ators. 11-4 and 10-3. the Los An geles Angels and Detroit Tigers split a doubleheader by 8-3 scores ine luvL-iauu inuiuns ui-iuuicu the Chicago White Sox, 4-3, and the Baltimore Orioles topped the I Kansas City A's, 2-1. j Pitched Six-Hitter j Bob Gibson struck out 13 and pitched a six-hitter and Curt Flood drove in four runs with three singles as the Cardinals dealt the Colts their 15th loss in 17 games. The Colts . sabo taged the work of four pitchers with five errors as Dick Droit dropped his sixth decision. Back-to-back homers by Willie Mays and Willie McCovey sparkfd a four-run eigl. Vinning rally which enabled tne Giants to stretch the Reds' losing streak to four games. Juan Marichal struck out 13 nods in 7 2-3 innings but relief pitcher Billy Hoeft, who pitched only 1-3 of an inning, re ceived credit for his first victory of the season. McCovey had two homers and Orlando Ccpeda and V'.da Pincon al?o connected. Dick Ellsworth struck out U in achieving his 10th win for the Cubs, who won out over the Phil lies when non Santo homered oft Jack Baldschun in the 11th. Don Dcineter had a double and three singles for the Phillies and Santo and Dick Dertoll had two hits each for the Cubs. Bill Virdon's two-run homer and Al McBean's 2 2-3 innings of shut out relief pitching led the Pirates to their victory over the Mets. Roger Craig suffered his 10th straight defeat and his 12th of the season. Virdon has hit safely in 10 straight games and has 12 hits in his last 30 times at bat. Schroeder Cops Title PORTLAND (UPI) Slew Schroeder, formerly of Medford but now playing out of Corvallis, Friday easily won the Oregon Golf Association medalist honors at Riverside Golf and Country Club.
