Crowell Nabs First in Race Spectators at the Eugene Speedway saw one of the top races of the season Sunday when local hardtops tangled with road sters from Oregon and Washing ton. The one main race of the day was a 25-lap contest won by Palmer Crowell's roadster in 9:38.74. Close behind was a road ster driven by Frankie McGowcn of Salem and third was Jerry uundin, Bothell, Wash., in an other roadster. The yellow flag was out for several minutes during the main event when a car spun out on the north turn and forced Marvin While over the bank in order to avoid a collision. Next week the hardtops will be out in force again when the Emerald Empire Kiwanis Club will sponsor the races with the proceeds going to the Pearl Buck Hospital School. Time trials for the hardtops Sunday ranged from 21:99 to 23:58 seconds. Fast time was driven by Jim "Chief Crazy- Horse Baxlcy and was a new hardtop track record.

His four walks in the fifth were in strumental in Eugene's big in ning. FIRST RUCKUS Storti didn't put a man on base until the fourth on his first walk to lead off the inning. Dick Watson then bunted down the firstbase line and on the sacrifice Hal Toso tagged Watson not too gently resulting in the first ruckus. But the payoff came in the fifth. Roberts started the inning by hitting George Matilc and then Whitey Thomson beat out a scratch single on an attempted bunt. Ted Heese walked to fill the bases. Storti fanned, but Ron Jackson came through with a two- run double that proved to be the light that started the explosion. Art Preston walked and then Granny Gladstone popped out. Dick Hayes walked to fill the. bases and George Matile walked to force in another run. Matile, up for the second time in the inning, singled to short, .scoring Preston. Hayes, also at tempting to score, was caught at the plate for what would have been the final out but he threw a blockbuster at Bob Duretto and the catcher dropped the ball. It was a good, hard, clean play, but players and other per sonnel rushed from both dugouts to become entangled in the melee. One Wenatchee player was felled, but most of the punches were blocked. Umpires Runyon and Kelly managed to quell the riot and when the dust settled all the bases were empty. But it was ruled that Matile would have to return to second base with only seven runs scored there were nd ejections. Thomson came to bat again and was safe on another of We natchee's four errors, Matile scor ing. Hesse grounded out to end the inning with Roberts surviv ing the 12-man assault.
