(News-Review photo) BelinskyGets Lumps In Tilt By Unittd Press International Bo Bclinsky got his lumps but Hawaii still outlasted Tacoma 8-7 in an 11-inning Pacific Coast League battle Monday night to move past the Giants in the southern division chase. The news that Belinsky would start brought a remarkable Mon day night crowd of 7,490 and their Bo did not disappoint for five innings as he pitched shutout ball and helped Hawaii's attack with his hitting. It was 5-0 when the roof fell In and Tacoma scored four times. Bill Hain homered with two aboard in the eighth, but Hawaii ' tied it up when Spanky Kirk Patrick hit a two-run belt in the bottom of the eighth. Charley Decs finally ended the contest when he doubled home Ron Samford in the 11th to hand the win to Al Thomas and the loss to Ron Hcrbel.

Ph. 672-2694 The local crew handed Billings its lone loss in tournament play in the opening round, 8-4, while the Mon tana powerhouse nipped Lock- wood's Sunday, 5-4, in a 10-inning thriller. Game time tonight for the de cider is 8. Blombarg Scoras Mike Blomberg collected the first home run of the Western Re gional tournament to climax a five run rally staged by the winners in the second inning Monday. With one away in the second, Lance Casebeer drilled a single on the ground over second base, and when the ball was bobbled in the outfield, he continued on to second. After the second out, Dave Sevall came through with a clutch single to score Casebeer from second. Jer ry Boucock was safe on an error and Cool singled to make the score read 2-0 -in favor of Roseburg. At this point Blomberg stepped to the plate, watched one strike sail across, then picked on the next offering by Idaho's Bob Kidwell. He drilled the ball over the second baseman a line shot that traveled to the wall some. 410 feet from home plate. While the outfielders were chasing the ball, Blomberg was rounding the bases to cross the plate standing. Errors Hurt Despite some shaky control, Cool managed to get by until the sixth inning then errors spoiled h i s shutout. In that frame, Lewiston started a two-out rally after Jim Naslund worked his way for a walk. Steve Arnold was safe on an error and Ron Ticrney singled to load the bases. An easy grounder to second baseman Mike Markham off the bat of Dennis Leffler should have ended the inning, but Mark ham couldn't find the handle and all hands were safe. Roseburg got the run back in the top of the seventh when Cool led off with a single, and Blom berg and McDonald beat out per fect bunts down the first and third base lines, respectively, to load the sacks with no outs. Kidwell came through for Idaho as Oregon man aged to push across only one run that coming on Jim Beamer's sac rifice fly. Roof Caves In In the bottom of the seventh the roof caved in on Cool, and after three runs had crossed the plate Williams was called on to put out the fire. Wayne Adams beat out an in field single to start the rally. Cool's control vanished, and Jim Smith and Jim Minnette drew free passes to load the bases. Cool got Butts Wins Big Libel Suit By CHARLES S. TAYLOR Jr. United Prass International ATLANTA (UPI) A federal court jury today awarded former Georgia Athletic Director Wallace Butts $3,060,000 in 'damages for a national magazine 'story that said he gave away football secrets.. The roiy poiy former Georgia football coach broke down when the decision was announced. The Saturday Evening Post, in its March 23 edition, said Butts divulged vital Georgia team se crets to Alabama coach ram (Bear) Bryant prior to the 1962 Alabama-Georgia game. Alabama, a 17-point favorite, won 35-0. , A 12-man jury of businessmen which had listened to nine days of testimony in the case filed into the court room at 11:28 a.m. EDT, after almost 7Vi hours delib erations. Judge Warns Spectators The jury said it found in favor of Butts in his suit against the Post for its article entitled "The Story of a College Football Fix." The jury awarded Butts $60,000 in general damages and said he was entitled to punitive damages of $3 million. Before the jury was admitted to the courtroom, U. S. District Judge Lewis R. Morgan warned spectators who filled three-fourths of the room that he would toler ate no demonstrations. He said of the trial jury would be dealt with severely. . The jury, which was locked up Monday night after failing to reach ' a verdict, resumed its de liberation today.

Sale of exclusive investments with nationally known investment firm. Reply Box 698 co The News-Review, Roseburg Jim Naslund to pop up to the first baseman, but fed the wrong pitch to the next batter. Arnold came around dead-center and sent the ball sailing deep into, center field for a throe-run triple. .When the next batter walked Williams came on and got Leffler to hit into a fielder's choice to end the inning. Williams was in complete con trol in the eighth, but ran into hot water of his own in the heart stopping ninth inning finish. Min nette led off with a walk and Nas lund singled through the box. The latter was forced at second by Arnold, and Tierney watched ball four sail by to load the bases. At this point Williams returned to form to end the game with two strikeouts. Cool had his share of trouble in which time he tossed 141 pitches. Though the ace lefty struck out 12, he issued seven walks and was tagged for three hits. Williams struck out five and walked three. Control Good Kidwell had perfect control dur ing his seven-inning mound per formance, but was hit hard as Lockwood's connected for 10 blows. The loss is Kidwell's third, and his second to Roseburg. Cool now sports a spectacular 16-1 record. At the plate Blomberg's homer stole the show and was one of two hits for the Drain leftfielder. Bob Manning, Dave Sevall and Cool also had two hits each. Lewiston's four hits were scattered among four players. The lack of hitting punch for Lewiston accounted for its down fall. The Idaho champs had plen ty of runners on base leaving 13 stranded but could not come through with the timely hits. As a result, Idaho finished third in the six-team tourney and will leave for home today.

Post Plans Appeal Clay Blair Jr., editor-in-chief of the Saturday Evening Post who testified that his magazine had embarked on an editorial pol icy of "sophisticated muckraking" said he was "disappointed with the verdict and we will certainly appeal." Butts had sued the magazine for $5 million in general damages and $5 million in punitive dam ages. Punitive damages are awarded in cases where malicious intent is proved. Butts denied once in tears that he gave away secrets, and demands $10 million in damages from the Curtis Publishing Co. The 12 jurors, none of whom played college football, received the case at 4:02 p.m.. EDT. Mon day. Federal District Judge Lewis K. Morgan told them the story was libelous on its face, and in order to win its case the Post had to prove it was true. Morgan, in his 38-minute charge to the jury, said the jurors had to bring in a verdict in favor of either Butts or the publishing firm.

Capacity at Multnomah Stadium during baseball season is slightly more than 28,000. The all-time rec ord is 29,122 for the game between the Rams and Chicago Cardinals for Butts, who wants $5 million in general damages and $5 mil lion more in punitive damages, he said the jury must determine the amount of the damages. "You are the supreme judges of the facts and none may invade that province, the judge said He noted that there was "sharp conflict in the testimony. He said the jury, if it found that the Post partially established the truth of its article, could mm gate the damages. Yanks Bite The Dust BUFFALO, N. Y.
