Oriole Pitching Far Ahead of Swatters SCOTTSDALE. Ariz, t - The pitching was way ahead of the hitting as the Baltimore Orioles opened their second week of spring training here Monday. Baltimore hitters went up igiinst full-speed pitching for the first time and were particu larly unsuccessful against Don Farrarese, a little southpaw up from San Antonio for another trial. The only hitters able to get to Ferrarese with any consistency were first baseman Gus Triandos, rookie Gene Oden. and Bob Nelson, a $30,000 bonurplayen-frem Dallas been piping hot in that they have won their last six in a row smash ing North Marion's eight-game winning streak in the process. The Sabers have climbed to within one game of the lcaficrj, but can not possibly get to the top. The best they can do is tie for second place, if they win over Silverton Wednesday. Husky Hopes Ruined North Marion s title hopes were shattered Friday wnen the Sabers bashed them 62-47. And now Dean Nice's Huskies must beat Gervais tonight to finish in a tie for second place. Marshall Barbour s Woodburns, who delivered a evere blow to Cascade Friday by beating them 79-67, must also win their finale tonight at Mt. Anel to gam a piece of the .second place finish. Cal Kersey's pascaces ctuld Jiave clinched things Had tney pecn aoie to beat Woodburn. Fred Graham's Staytons whe beat Cascade 70-68 in thir first game this season, retained their chance for the title by downing Mt. Angel Friday. And since that firrt Stayton Cascade margin wns only two points, tonight's championship game could be a ring laiiei dooz er. H'achter Near Crown Although tied for last place at present, Mt.

Mill City '5' Tops St. Paul MILL CITY - (Special) - Mill City's Timberwolves ran up a first quarter lead of 28-13 and went on to crush St. Paul, 66-40, in a Mar lon County B League game. The victory put the Timberwolves only a half game behind league-leading Jefferson, with both teams havihg one game left to play. It was. Mill City's game all the way and they led, 4219. It was 54-34, at the end of the third. Don Ellingson of Mill City was the game's high pointer with 23. Norm Bernhorst was high for St. Paul with 14. San Francisco goes breezing along in front in college basket' ball, but while the top teams con tinue knocking one another about without rhyme or much reason, its hard to say who is second to the unbeaten Dons. Illinois moved into the No. J spot in this -week's Associated Press poll of sports writers and broad casters mainly because the other leading contenders managed to get beaten. During the past week, Louisville, which had been down in fourth place, was conked by Xavier of Cincinnati. Louisville then bounced back to knock Dayton out of the runner-up spot and Dayton prompt ly smacked Xavier. Rankings Make Shift In the Smith's two big leagues, Vanderbilt tuned up for a rematch with Kentucky by beating Tulane and Tennessee, Alabama whipped Florida and Tulane, and Kentucky dropped a non-conference game to De Paul in Chicago: North Caro lina State seriously damaged Duke's hopes then was upset by Maryland and North Carolina got past spoiler Wake Forest. As a result of all that, only San Francisco among the first 10 teams retained the ranking it held a week ago. And with most of the major conference races still unsettled, the ballots of the sports writers and broadcasters put the others in this order: Illinois, Louisville, Dayton, Van derbilt, North Carolina State, Ala bama. Kentucky, North Carolina and Temple.

North Salem's Bob Tom, with one more game to play, is fourtli with 152 points, and could move into second if he has a good night against South Salem tonight. Royce McDaniels ot Sweet Home has 152 markers also, and Jack Gambee of Corvallis has 151.

The ancient light heavyweight champion, making his first -ring appearance since his knockout by heavyweight champ Rocky Marci ano last September, floored the 21- year-old Nevada youngster twice but was unable to land a knockout punch. King was down for eight counts in the first and ninth rounds, but got up both times and kept away from Moore until the bell. King Back-Pedals King, who said before the fight, "You can't hit what you can't And," lived up to his promise most of the way by back-pedalling 'uri- ously before Moore's steady, flat' footed advance. Referee Frank Carter and Judge Colby Irwin scored it 61-49 for Moore and Judge Eddie James had it 624 to 474 under the Cali fornia 11-point scoring system. The Associated Press card showed 61 49 for Moore. King gave Moore trouble in only one round, the eighth, when he landed three good rights to the head which appeared to shake Moore slightly. Tha young Reno fighter kept up the attack through out the round and scored again with another trio ot savage rights. Otherwise it was Moore all the way. . Saxons have their playoff berty in the bas.
