In Curtis Golf
MUIRFIELD, Scotland (U.R
Britain won the Curtis cup for
the first time in history Saturday
by downing the American ama
teur women golf stars, 5 matches
to 4.
It was a thrilling duel that was
not decided until the final match,
even though the British girls led
in four of Saturday's six matches
at the halfway mark of their 36
hole tour.
The deciding match the last
on the schedule was lost by
Grace DeMoss of Corvallis, Ore.,
to Elizabeth Price of England, 3
and 2. And the irony of this was
that Miss DeMoss was not among
the Yanks who had trailed in the
early stages.
ball game. Zenimura scored from
first when Helbig returned the
ball to second rather than third
base; But George flied out to re
tire the side.
HELBIG MADE up for his menial
error in the seventh which, could
have cost the ball game. He sin
gled Dean home from second
after the firstsacker had doubled
down the leftfield line with one
away. That seventh-inning run
was all the Beavers needed.
Three insurance runs scored in
the eighth when Houck was safe
on an infield single and advanced
on Wellman's sacrifice bunt.
Goodbrod punched a single
through the second-first slot, scor
ing Houck. Fisk flied out to left
and then Johnston singled sharp
ly to center, Goodbrod scoring
when the ball got away from
Hirayama the only unearned
run of the game.
Frank Warren then took charge
of the mound from Loser Bishop,
who suffered his first defeat
against six straight wins. Dean
promptly singled through the
third-short hole, Johnston scoring
the final run. Helbig popped out
to short to end the scoring.
Dean, with his "five for five",
i the top hitter for the four play
off games an even .500, followed
by Helbig and Thomas at .482, and
Goodbrod and Fisk at .375 Dean
and Thomas shared RBI honors,
each with five. White and Well-
man were credited with two
mound wins each.

NEW YORK. (U.R) The Brook
lyn Dodgers, every bit as hot as
the 98-degree temperature they
played in, climbed over Cincin
nati for five runs in the first in
ning Saturday, and went on to
roll up an 11-3 victory that kept
their four-game National League
lead intact.
Driving Bubba Church to cover
in the first frame, Brooklyn col
lected a total of 13 hits off three
Cincinnati pitchers, including Carl
Furillo's third homer of the year
in the seventh. Furillo also was
the key man in the first inning
uprising when his double to right
center drove in three of the five
runs.
DAVEY WILLIAMS' sixth hom
er of the season high-lighted a

Giants to come from behind and

I Pirates nine straight times before,
OB ' was knocked from the box in the
fifth when Pittsburgh took a 5-3
lead. George Spencer relieved
Hearn and was credited with the
victory that broke the Giants
three-game losing streak although
Max Lanier, aided by three dou
ble plays, held the Pirates score
less over the last four innings. -
Phil Cavaretta's Chicago Cubs
fashioned their longest winning
streak since 1950 four straight
games by beating the Boston
Braves, 9-3, behind the nine-hit
pitching of Wairen Hacker. The
Cubs, remaining a game and a
half behind the Giants, collected
14 hits, including Hank Sailer's
13th homer and clinched the con
test with a sun-run rally in the
fourth.
JOHN THOMAS, 215-POUND OSC CATCHER, is slinwn
here sliding into third base in the seventh inning at Cor
vallis Friday, with Thomas later scoring the winning run
to give OSC a 2-1 far-west NCAA' playoff baseball victory
over Fresno State, OSC then won the second game 8-4.
Thomas; who had walked and advanced on a sacrifice,
went to third on a fielder's choice. Don White, southpaw
itcher for OSC, had lined to the mound where Pitcher
arry Bolger knocked the ball down, but threw too late
to catch Thomas. Fred Sommers, Bulldog thirdbaseman,
is shown waiting for the late throw.

Chuck Missfeldt has the best chance of any University
of Oregon athlete to make the Olympics since Ralph Hill finished
second in the 5000 meters in Los Angeles in 1932. The only exceptions
were Jack Hutchins and Mack Robinson who came to Oregon after
their Olympic performances. . . . Robinson placed second in the 200
meters run in the Berlin Olympics and Hutchins was third in his heat

Bob Parke of Oregon, who won
the NCAA title in the javelin in
1934 with a toss of 220 feet, 11

to qualify. . . . When Boyd Brown

there were no Olympic games. , . .
Missfeldt has a good chance

Matthews Signs
With Marciano
For July 28 Go
NEW YORK (U.R) After weeks
of dickering, Promoter Jim Norris
Saturday closed the "hottest match
of "the year" a 10-round heavy
weight challengers' fight between
Harry "Kid" Matthews and un
beaten Rocky Marciano for Yan
kee Stadium July 28.
Norris said the winner prob
ably would challenge for Jersey
Joe Walcott's heavyweight crown
in September.
The promoter estimated that the
brawl would draw a gate of at
least $500,000. However Jack
Hurley, manager of Matthews
pride of the West said it would
draw at least $1,000,000 for it
would bring special trains from
many Western and New England
cities. Each fighter will receive
JO per cent of the net proceeds
that will include nearly $200,000
for theatre television and prob
ably several hundred thousand
dollars for the movie rights,
The bout will not b televiaad
to homes.
Matthews of Seattle, 30, will be
an underdog in the beginning de
spite the fact that always-talking
Hurley has made him the world s
most publicized fighter. Odds
makers said Marciano would be
favored at VA to 5 in the early
wagering.
Stocky, swarthy Marciano, the
"Brockton Block-Buster," will be
the early choice because of his
40 consecutive victories and 26
knockouts as a professional. Those
victories by the 27-year-old New
Englander include a knockout
over ex-champion Joe Louis,
Marciano also is a much heavier
puncher than Seattle Harry, and
he will have a weight advantage
of about 187 pounds to 182 over
Hurley's "Athlete."
Hurley said no settlement had
been made with Marv Jensen,
manager of Rex Layne, the Utah
heavyweight who claimed to have
a return contract with Matthews
for Seattle June 19, Jensen, in
New York Saturday, said the re
turn-bout contract had been
signed before Matthews won a
10-round decision over Layne at
Portland, Ore., May 19.
Before the match was announ
ced, Jensen had threatened legal
action to prevent the Matthews
Marciano fight unless some deal
was made with Layne.
CLEVELAND PRESERVED its
two game lead in the American
League by burying the Philadel
phia A's under a 14-0 score. Luke
Easter walloped a grand-slam
homer off Alex Kellner in the
first inning and before the frame
was over, the Indians had netted
seven runs.
Trailing 7-4 at one point, the)
Boston Red Sox pushed across
five runs in the fifth inning td
defeat Detroit, 11-9, in a game
featured by foui home runs. Rook
ie Dick Gernert's infield grounder
drove in George Kell with the de
ciding run in the sixth inning,
however. , 1
Vern Stephens and Sammy
White each homered for Boston
while Walt Dropo and Vic Wert?
walloped homers for Detroit. Vet
eran Randy Gumpert, who enter
ed the game in the sixth was
credited with his first victory of
the season while Hal White sufi
fered his second loss against no
wins.
AUie Reynolds hurled his lOtli
complete game of the season in
pitching the Yankees to a 2-1 de
cision over the Browns. The Yanr
kees insured Reynolds' seventh
triumph with two runs in the fifth
on Billy Martin's single, Mickey
Mantle's double and Phil Rizzu
to's single. !
The Chicago White Sox tripped
the Senators, 5-3, in a night game
at Washington. ,
The Philadelphia Phils edged the
St. Louis Cardinals, 4-3, in the
lone National League night game.
Gran Hamner's eight-inning homer
off relief pitcher Bill Werle de
cided the issue.
