The contest knotted the two clubs for first place in the race, nec essitating a one-game playoff which was to be held Wednesday afternoon. The Millers, who could have clinched the 5-A-l crown outright witn a victory, appeared well on tneir way to doing just that especially after chasing across five runs in the first inning. After Eugene pitcher Jack Hen- nei reurea tne urst natter on a pop fly, he dished out a walk to Jack Cozad. Duane Reeves fol lowed by lashing out the first of his three hits, a liner over second base. DICK EDWARDS followed with shorty fly to leftfield which Rich Leavitt missed in a diving try. However, Cozad who had held up at second base was behind Leavitt's force-out peg to third. wnen tne throw was wild Cozad scored and Reeves and Edwards advanced a base. Burright followed with a "bleeder" down the first base line but Chuck Stevenson threw past tne catcner to the backstop, with two more Springfield runs cross ing the plate. George Bilderback's solid single to right brought in Burright. After Bridees fanned. Loyd Hinkle reached base on Dale Dickey's muff of his grounder. Bill Thompson followed with another sharp rap, plating Bilderback, Willoughby, who also was the first out, grounded out to end the five- run frame. In the ton of the second. Spring field threatened to make a walk away of the contest loading the bases with one down. Singles by Cozad and Reeves plus a walk to Burright jammed the base paths, Bilderback struck out and Bridge hit a grounder to get Henkel out oi tne inning unscathed. EUGENE STARTED pecking at the Miller lead in the bottom of the second inning, with a four-run rally. Dick Weaver started this with a hot single down the third base line. Tommy Bowen walked but Weaver was cut down at third on an attempted steal. Springfield hurler Thompson continued to have trouble with his control and gave Chuck Stevenson a base on balls. Chuck Hoeflein then tied into a Ditch for a high. long double to right-center bat ting in Bowen and Stevenson. Henkel's lasher past third base chased Hoeflein home. Hank Hudspeth and Dickey walked to load the sacks, and Gene Stott followed with a tower ing fly to short leftfield with Henkel trying to score from third after the catch. Reeves' throw to the plate was perfect but Hinkle dropped the toss when Henkel slid into him, allowing the fourth run. Leavitt's fly to center ended the inning. SPRINGFIELD BUILT its lead to 6-4 in the top half of the fourth frame after Reeves opened with a single up-the-middle. Hudspeth then kicked Edwards' double play grounder and fired wildly to third base in an effort to cut down Reeves. This allowed the Miller lead runner to score. After that, Henkel settled down. The Millers never got another man on base as the sophomore righthander retired the last 12 hitters, including .five on strike outs. It was in the same inning, that bugene staged its game-winning three-run splurge. Hudspeth start ed this by smashing a single off the thirdbaseman's glove. After Dickey forced Hudspeth at second Stott drew a walk. Thompson then deflected Leavitts bouncer with his glove, but the Miller hurler pegged wildly to first base, allow ing Dickey to score and moving Stott to thirdbase and Leavitt to second. WEAVER APPLIED the win ning hit, a whistling double to left field which rolled into foul territory after lighting fair. That scored Stott and Leavitt with the needed Eugene tallies. Earl Cof felt came in later in the same in ning to stifle the Axemen hitters the rest of the way. Reeves was the leading batter for the game with three singles in four trips. Leavitt had a single and triple and Weaver a single and double for Eugene. Bildre- back, Hoeflein, and Weaver each batted in two runs. In scattering six hits and allow ing no earned runs, Henkel fan ned seven and walked two. Losing pitcher Thompson walked nine, fanned two and allowed six hits in his three and two-thirds in nings. Coffelt fanned two and walked one in his relief chore. Score: NnrinBfiifi nno inn n n B Tnompson, uorrelt (41 ana Hintue Henkle and Bowen. Tracker Needs Medical Miracle Only a miracle by Trainer Bob Officer will make possible the running of Quarter-miler Ted An derson in the Northern Division track championships in Seattle Saturday. That is the opinion of Coach Bill Bowerman, who ex plained that the pulled muscle at the back of the thigh is not seri ous, but the very worst place for such an injury, as shallow as it is. Anderson will make the trip, however. On the brighter side of Oregon's chances to add the championship to dual-meet honors already won, is a report that Don McClure, veteran top-flight broad-jumper, will be ready for action along with Sprinter Bill Fell. Fell, scheduled to vie in the Fresno Relays last Saturday came up lame with slightly pulled groin, but the in jury is rapidly responding to treatment. Oregon's ace freshman hurdler, Dick Zimmerman of La-! Grande, will remain out of com petition. He has not run a race I this season. Others who will be members of the 18-man traveling squad are Jack Smith and Jerry Mock in the 100 and 220, along with Fell; Doug Clement, 440; Jack Hutchins, 880; Al Martin, Wayne Reiser and Fred Turner, mile and possibly two mile; Larry Blunt, hurdles; Smith along with McClure in the broad jump; Emery Barnes, high jump; Ray Packwood and Russ Mannex, pole vault; Chuck Missfeldt, jave lin; Chet Noe and Bob Craig, shot, and Ben Lloyd, discus. Lack of gasoline may prevent the Webfoots from making the trip via air in one day, so will bus both ways if necessary, leav ing here early Friday. Maglie, Garcia Lead Pitchers Earned Run Figures Amazingly Small NEW YORK (P) A pair uf durable right-handers, Sal Maglie of the New York Giants and Mike Garcia of the Cleveland Indians, top their leagues in earned run effectiveness. According to pitching figures re leased by the statistical bureau of The Associated Press, Maglie has yielded a mere five earned runs in 44 innings for a 1.02 mark, The statistics do not include Tues day's games. The swarthy ace of the Giants as second last year to Chet Nichols of the Boston Braves. The rookie southpaw, who finished with a 2.88 average, was inducted into the Army last month. Garcia, the American League pace-setter in this department, also has been extremely stingy, yielding only seven earned runs in 54 innings for a 1.17 era. Last season Garcia ranked sixth among the league hurlers.

The C. B. O'Malley squad of Chicago, which won the 1951 team play in 1951 with a sparkling 3,070 fell 198 pins short of that mark Tuesday and failed to crash the top 10. The O'Malley quint rolled 886-1007-979 for their 1952 mark of 2.872. George Theel paced the team with a 629 set. Only once in the 49-year hlstety of the ABC has a team ever dupli cated a tournament victory th next year. The Commodore Har rys K. of C. team of Chicago won both in 1915 and 1916.
