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.

Columbus, O., June 21 IIP)
The guys who make a living
some good, some bad beating a
perverse little white ball into an
exasperatingly small hole start
cutting each other up in the
P.G.A. golf tournament today and
it shouldn't happen to' Fearless
Fraley. .
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

capacity of any stadium in the

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

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.

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

a doubtlul starter.
Snead Determined
Snead, long-hitting veteran

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.
