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,

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

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

to line up a pre-conference schedule. They'll train in the

the case the last two years when they buzzed through their
tuneups here. Indications that another pro game may be

The burly Montana beat Romero

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.

its hard to say who is second to

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.

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

and Temple.

10-round decision Monday night
over rangy Howard King of Reno,
Nev. Moore weighed 197; King 186.
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. .
