BEND BULLETIN n V GENERAL NEWS SPORTS CENTRAL OREGON'S DAILY NEWSPAPER T 47th Year TWO SECTIONS BEND, DESCHUTES COUNTY, OREGON, WEDNESDAY. JUNE 21, 1950 No. 167 Sport Parade By Oscar FnUey (United Preu 8port Writer) Evans Fly Team Wins Again To Continue League Lead; Child s Hardware Victorious Softball fans again saw the league leading Evans Fly team win as the team, turned in a 10 to 2 victory over the Bend Merchants, while Childs Hardware rallied to defeat Madden's Shell service 8 to 2 in the second game last night. Les Schwab again came through with a low hitter as he hurled a three bit ball game. Evans Fly led the whole game and were greatly aided by unucK Liinvi ami neni yy Baughn, wno collected five hits between them. The Fly team started rallying in the second inning and scored con- stantly for the remaining five innings. Babe Maudlin, Hufstader and Halverson got the only base hits off Schwab in his three hit mas terpiece. Paul .Rukoveno, mana ger for Evans, led his team to its fjghth straight victory against no " losses as league action is ending in the first round. The Merchants played good ball in most of the game but faltered as the Evans batters proved too rough for them. The second game saw Childs Hardware collect another win to edge closer to second place by turning back Madden's Shell serv ice 7 to 3. Childs got an early game lead as they piled up a' total of four runs in .the first, inning while holding Madden's Shell to a lone run. . , . . Team "Catches Fire" But Madden's seemed to settle down and held them scoreless while they collected three runs. Manager Lowell Hirtzel must have given his boys a shot in the . arm as they hadn't' scored since the first Jnning, but going into the seventh they caught fire and scored their final tallies on a home run by catcher Corbin Web er with the bases loaded. Duane Crane, shortstop for Madden's led team hitting as he smacked otit three singles for three times at bat, Madden's came up in the bottom of the seventh and put on a rally but it was short lived as pitcher Musgrave cut the boys off short to set the Madden's batters down one-two-three with the bases loaded. Last night's games were make up games for one rained out last week.

They are talking, as they start tWo qualifying rounds, about knocking par into the rlext coun ty. The course is, they figure, that easy. Well, they can just take a min ute out and thank Old Fearless. Equipped with three carriers, an elephant gun, two St. Bernards with the usual snake-bite reme dy, a cross-cut saw, a seeing-eye dog and a hand mashie, we per sonally , toured Scioto's hills and gullies. We saw spots, as I pur sued that (censored) little pellet, where no white man ever has set foot. We saw animals nobody ever knew Inhabited the state of Ohio. And Old Fearless personally hacked down every bit of rough between Columbus and Zanes ville, of which Scioto is the ap proximate fulcrum. Now Divotvllle Scioto no longer is a golf course. It is a ravaged land of demon divots which resemble the unfinished cellars of a housing project, sand traps which look mighty unclad with all the sand exploded therefrom, and greens with strategically-placed gullies running right up to the cups. The latter, I discovered, are a great aid in the sinking of long putts. Actually, Scioto for the first six holes is no worse than some sec tions of .the Congo. And on the seventh your courage is reborn when you actually see houses again, pretty ones, too, although they look a little funny now with out glass in the windows. The eighth is a test of skill sel dom rivaled. A few hundred years ago somebody planted trees right in front of the tee and the soil here must be mighty good. In addition to that, the fairway comes in from third base like Ewell Blackwell's curve ball. But you plug doggedly on, paus ing now and then to pat the St. Bernards, and finally emerge on the 14th. It's a short par three but it has more sand than Atlan tic City and it will wind up with twice as many dives when the lads start firing. After that, the pros are going to find it's a cinch. You start seeing peoplegain, and some of them even speak English. They stamp your'passport at the offi cials' table and after clearing cus toms you are all ready to do it all over again. Griffith Stadium in Washing ton, which accommodates 29,731 persons, has the smallest seating capacity of any stadium in the American league.

The 35-year-old outfielder, crack ed out the 2,000th hit of his ca reer in a game against Cleveland last night at Municipal stadium, the same park In which his 56 game hitting streak was stopped on July 18, 1941. When DiMaggio registered his 2.000th hit a line single over shortstop Ray Boone's head in the seventh inning the Rame was halted and he was presented with the ball. SOFTBALL Tonight, 7:30 2 GAMES Admission 25c CHILDREN UNDER 14 FREE Bend Merchints Redmond VFW Bend-Partland Darit Lowers Meyer Displays Old-Time Stuff, Pirates Beaten By Carl I.undqulst ' (United Prtwo Sport Writer) New York, June 21.ill,i A losing' pitcher with a winning team causes plenty of puzzlement especially when he is a guy with a winning soirit like Russ Meyer, so it must have been especially heartening to the fightln' Phillies today, to have the colorful right hander rack ud his first victory of the season. Last night he was his old effec tive self as he "joined" the staff with a 7 to 3 six-hit victory over the Pirates at Philadelphia, in which he 1 struck ' out five and walked only one. The Phils came from behind with four runs in the. eighth, two on Mike Goliat's clutch single,, and Willie Jones blasted a -three-run homer, his 11th, to make It sure in the sev enth. Advance in League The victory put the Phils with in half a game of the second place Cardinals, who dropped out of a first place tie by losing to the Giants, 3 to 2, while Brook lyn tamed Cincinnati, 8 to 2. The Cubs beat the Braves, 4 to 3. In the American league the Yankees topped Cleveland, 8 to 2, Wash; ington won from Detroit 4 to 2, Boston beat Chicago 5 to 3 and St. Louis edged Philadelphia, 1 to 0. Gil Hodges hit a grand slam homer in the third at Brooklyn and from then on it was no con test as Billy Cook and Carl Furil lo also homered in support of Preacher Roe's eighth victory. Roe turned in the fifth straight full route job for the Dodgers, giving up 11 hits, but walking no batters. Wes Westrum homered in the eighth to give Sheldon Jones of the Giants- the nod over lefty Herry Brecheen of the Cardinals in afpitching battle in which Stan (The Man) Musial smashed a homer for his 1,500th big league hit. Bill Howerton also homered for St. Louis as did Alvin Dark for the Giants. .; . .... Gets 8lh Victory Hank Sauer's fourth single brought home the winning run in the 10th at Boston as Bob Rush outpitched Johnny Sain to gain his eighth victory. Roy Smalley hit a homer and two triples for the Cubs. Joe DiMaggio also passed a bat ting milestone at Cleveland, get ting his 2,000 hit in the Yankee victory and joining Wally Moses and Luke Appling as the only oth er major leaguers beyond that level. With two hits for the night he drove in three runs as lefty Ed Lopat maintained his incred ible hex over the Indians, defeat ing them for the 25th time against only six defeats, and for the third straight time this year. Cliff (Continued on Page 10) Freak Inning Yields Ten Sudden Runs By Jim Cooper (United Prena SoorU Writer) San Francisco, June 21 (IP) Oakland at bat in the eighth in ning . . . leading the Los Angeles Angels 8 to 2 '. . i two men out .-. . no one on base ... Sounds like a good time to leave the ball park and get your car out of the lot before the mob leaves, doesn't It? The fans who did that last night at Oakland missed one of the daffiest innings in Pacific Coast league baseball. For with two out and none on, the Oaks, already holding a safe margin of victory, scored ten times. They won 18 to 2 after Los Angeles fell apart. There's nothing like good pitch ing in baseball and the Angels had nothing even remotely resem bling it. During the evening they used six pitchers, gave up 1G hits, 13 walks, two balks and hit-a batsman with the bases loaded. Good Games Elsewhere Elsewhere in the league, there was excellent baseball. Seattle eked out a 4 to 2 victory over the Portland Beavers; Hollywood squeezed past San Francisco, 2 to 1, and San Diego defeated Sacra mento, 6 to 5. Fifteen Acorn batters came to the plate in the fatal eighth. The scoring orgy started after two outs, when Frank Marino, the Angels' fourth pitcher, walked three batters In succession to fill the bases. Then he beaned Ra fael Noble to force in a run. Three singles, a walk, a triple, and a home run by Mac McCormiek added nine more. Herm Besse was charged with the loss and Charlie Gassaway was handed the victory Oakland's Billy Herman hit four for four, including two home runs. Lou Klein homered for the Angels. Seattle Wins A first-inning three-run homer by Frank Colman was all Seattle needed in the game at Portland. But they got one more run in the third on a Colman double. Hector Brown was credited with the vic tory, which put the Rainiers into a fourth place tie with San Fran- Cisco. Red Lynn was the loser. There wa's a fine southpaw pitching duel at Hollywood, with Art Schallock winning out over the Seals' Chet Johnson. A hom er by Jim Baxes in the fifth knot ted the count at 1-1, and a single by Frank Kelleher drove in the winning run in the sixth. Schal lock yielded only five hits, John son eight. Thirteen hits, including homers by Steve Souchock and Len Rat to, failed to provide Sacramento with a winning margin at San Diego, The Padres grouped eight hits more effectively to earn the win for George Zuverink. Sou chock's homer was his 13th of the season and put the Sacs ahead 4-3 for a brief spell in the fifth frame.

Spokesmen for the Big Ten were Commissioner Kenneth L. Wilson, faculty representatives W. R. Breneman, Indiana; Ken neth Little, Wisconsin, and Ralph W. Aigler, Michigan, and Athletic directors Douglas Mills, Illinois, Dick Larkins, Ohio State, and Fritz Crisler, Michigan. Pacific coast representatives were Commissioner Victor Schmidt, faculty representatives Hugh Wlllett, Southern Califor nia, and T. H. Kennedy, Washing ton State, and Athletic directors Brutus Hamilton, California, and Willis Hunter, Southern Califor nia. Both committees were author ized by the individual conferences to discuss points of difference in the present contract. But neither committee can make a commit ment for its conference. The re sults of today's discussions must be submitted for approval by the leagues. Major differences between the conferences on the present agree ment were on ticket distribution, number of practice days permit ted, and refusal of the Big Ten to permit its teams to compete more than once in three years. Additional Sports (Continued on Page 10) Snead, Mangrum Hot Favorites In Open Tourney By Sieve Snider United Priwa Stall Correpoiuleht) Columbus, O., June 21 (ll'iDe fendlng champion Sam Snead and pistol hot Lloyd Mangrum were the gallery favorites today as 128 of the nation's top professional golfers swung Into the opening qualifying round of the 32nd PGA championship. Eighteen holes today and an other 18 tomorrow will slash the field to 64 for the deadly business of man against man match play beginning Friday. Snead doesn't have to qualify for His match play berth but he'll play along both days as part of nis.grtm campaign to play him self back Into the winning form that put him at the top of the heap on the PGA's official money winning list with $20,861. Ten former' winners and all eight of last year's quarter-final ists were listed in the draw al though Johnny Rcvolta of Evan ston, III., champion in 1935, was a doubtlul starter. Snead Determined Snead, long-hitting veteran from White Sulphur Springs, W.Va., was tight-lipped and de termined when he hit town Mon day with his game fraying at the euges, dui alter two days of rigid practice over the rolling spread of Scioto country club he appear ed to be ready for all challengers. He fired a final tuneup round of 69 and put in a few more holes tor good measure. Mangrum is tne hottest player on the tournament trail right now and showed it on his first tour of Scioto with 32-35-67, five under par and one shot better than the old course record. The (Continued on Page 10) Winter Sports Proved Popular Winter sports areas on the na tional forests of Oregon and Washington attracted a total of 427,703 visitors this past winter, according to ngures just complied by the U. S. forest service. Ev ery major area except one showed a decrease in use, and for the second consecutive year winter sports visits throughout the Pa cific Northwest region showed a 20 per cent decrease from the previous year. Abnormal snowfalls and bliz zards again closed some of the popular national forest ski areas for several weeks at the peak of the season. Many people took ad vantage of the heavy snowfalls in metropolitan areas and en joyed skiing and sledding, on lo cal golf courses and city parks, instead of visiting the winter sports areas in the mountains, according to Frank B. Folsom, as sistant regional forester in charge of recreation and lands. "The de creased use on the major winter sports areas can thus be attribut ed to severe weather and not a slackening in interest in these sports, Folsom said. Hoodoo Butte attracted 8,700 visitors in the 1949-50 winter, a decrease of 3,712 from the 1948-49 season. .
