I if 3END: BULLETIN SPORTS General News CENTRAL OREGON'S DAILY NEWSPAPER 49th Year TWO SECTIONS BEND. DESCHUTES COUNTY. ORE GON, THURSDAY, AUGUST 21, 1952 No. 219 Angels Shut Out Portland 5 to 0; Suds Beat Oaks SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 21 Wh Good pitching this baseball season has been about as bountiful as a voung Itidy named Marilyn Monroe. There's lots of it. But the Holly wood Stars, who lead the Pacific Coast league, seem to have the best curves. Newcomer Paul LaPalme, a chattel of the Pittsburgh Pirates pitched Hollywood out f a first place tie Wednesday night. He gave up two hits and teammate Frankie Kelleher clubbed a two run homer ; to get the Stars a 2-1 victory over San Diego. ,: IX was the second game in a row in which a Hollywood mound artist stopped the Padres on a two-hitter, Mel Queen having turn ed the trick Tuesday eve. The win was Hollywood's 19th of 23 mcetings with Lefty O'Doul's Padres. 4' Into Second Place Oakland, who had the PCL's top spdt with Hollywood, slipped into second place, a game back, by los ing to Seattle 5-1. Steve Nagy twirled a five-hitter for the Suds. Lefty Joe Hatten blanked Port land on three hits as Los Angeles got a 5-0 decision; and Lean Walter Clough goose-e g g e d Sacramento tn five blows as the Seals won 2-0. Many critics maintain the base ball manufacturers have turned out a deader ball this season. This, it is claimed, makes for low-hit pitching, with a premium on the "long ball." But dead ball or live, LaPalme was superb. He gave the Pads their run in the second on Lon Summer's double, an infield out and Dick Cole's bobble at short stop. LaPalme walked two and fanned seven. -4 Stars Scoreless Meanwhile, Pad ace Willie Luna was successfully keeping the Stars scoreless. But in the eighth little Carlos Berhier garnered his third hit1 of the night and jogged home ahead of Kelleher's four-master, his' 10th of the season. Nagy, an effective slowballer, drove in one of his own runs. Only Oakland's Piper Davis, a lean, versatile athlete, bothered him. Davis had three of the five Oak , hits and spoiled a shutout in the eighth when he singled home a run, Hatten scarcely allowed Port land to smell the baseball. He was staked to a three-run lead in the third, with Leon Bnnkopf's homer starting the rally, and he made quick work of the Bevos over the distance. V Clough, who was fired by the Solons this season, and shortstop Len Ratto, another ex-Sacramento lad, did their former employers' dirt. Ratto had three hits, one a 1 double. And Clough gained his second decision over the Solons. Against other foes, bespectacled Walt has picked up only one other Victory. Corvallis Takes Softball Crown . MILL CITY, Aug. 21 (IB-Corval-lis reigned Thursday as Oregon's new softball champion, thanks to a pair of nifty pitching performances by Hal Wehmeier who blanked Eu gene's perennial titleholders 8-0 and 5-0. Eugene had won the title for the last five years. , Wehmeier gave up a total of only three hits in the twin bill Wednesday night as his Corvallis Elks team battled its way to the title despite a first-round defeat by Salem. Shortstop Ed Nelson led Corval lis in the first game with two sin gles to drive in four runs.

Aug. 21 OB Two "old" American racque- teers Gardnar Mulloy and Bill Talbert gain a day's rest this week, an important day that might help them break Australia's tennis dom inance and bring home the 71st national doubles crown. By the luck of the draw these veterans, last American winners of the title in 1948, must play their quarter-final match Thursday. Fri day the 38-year-old Mulloy can rest his elderly legs and the 33-year-old Talbert h i s wearying shoulders before a stretch drive that may find them pitted against the greater Australian defending champions, Frank Sedgman and Ken McGregor. "Makes a difference at my age," said Mulloy. "Gives you a chance to bounce back a little. I don't know how far back we can bounce but it's a break anyway." Mulloy and Talbert play their quarter-final match Thursday against Hamilton Richardson of Baton Rouge, La., and Bob Perry, Los Angeles, a 19-year-old pair playing as partners for the first time. Captains Named For Shrine Test PORTLAND, Aug. 21 U1 Doug Simmons. Astoria center, and Dick Knight, Grants Pass halfback, have been elected co captains by the State all-star foot ball team for Saturday night's Shrine game against Portland all stars at Multnomah stadium. Coach Mel Ingram pronounced his state team in top shape with the exception of John Harbour. Grants Pass tackle, who will not be able to play because of an In jury. Saturday night's game will be the "rubber" game between State and City as the teams have each won two apiece. While most people assume that the sparrow is our most abundant bird, actually the robin holds that distinction. Golf Prowess V mlimmmmmmmm exhibition are open to the public, Itedmond Golf clubs are narticu- Outlook for sage hen hunting is reasonably good in Harnev and Malheur counties, but there will be no spectacular concentrations such as last year's, an abundance ot water being the main reason. A sharp decline, based on the cyclic nature of sage hen popu lations, is anticipated after this hunting season. Game agents have already reported large loss es in western Lake county. This cyclic behavior-is-similar Rs that shown by jack rabbits, and peaks are reached at 10 year intervals. Public drawings for antelope areas 2 and 3 and the Troy special elk season were held Monday in Portland. Over 1400 applications were received for the 200 permit Troy elk hunt. After screening, 13 successful antelope applicants were cancelled out for false ap plication because they received a paid special season tag last year. One blanked applicant applied twice and had his name drawn twice! Other names were drawn to replace the false applications. Antelope hunters will find it more difficult to bag a trophy this year as there is an unusual carry-over of water on southeast ern Oregon ranges and the An telope are widely scattered. In antelope area 2 between Warner valley and Steens moun tains game agents report many pronghorns distributed over Cat low and Jacks valleys. In normal years the antelope from this area are hunted at higher elevations in the ranges south of Hart moun tain. Several roads that cross normally, dry lake beds, including Jacks lake and Jacobs reservoir are impassable.

Graham Defeats Carmen Basilio CHICAGO, Aug. 21 (U) Billy Graham believed Thursday he has the script memorized to be come the next welterweight cham pion of the world after taking a 10-round unanimous decision from Carmen Basilio in a "warm-up" fight, v "It was a good warm-up fight for Gavllan." Graham said after the fight Wednesday night in the Chicago btadium. "Basilio used a similar weaving style except he keeps his head lower. After three previous fights with Gavilan and the match with Basilio, I think I know Gavilan well enough to beat him," the number one welterweight con tender said. v He meets Kid Gavilan, the wel terweight champion, in Cuba for tne title uct. i. Graham, 29-year-old New York irishman, said he was afraid to hit Basilio on the head more be cause he didn't want to hurt his hand. Graham entered the ring at mh ana uasiiio weignect iwa.

Lend-Lease Plan Dropped by Loop NEW YORK, Aug. 21 (Ifl-The American Hockey League's lend lease program wilh the National Hockey League was terminated Thursday in one of the most drastic moves ever taken by the AHL. Apparently striving Tor more in dependence, the board of governors of the AHL decided at a meeting Wednesday night that under no conditions may any player loaned to their teams by the NHL be re called at any time during the regu lar' season or playoffs. . In previous years,, the NHL clubs could recall players after a 14-day period up to Feb. 15, or after that date only if one of their players was injured. This tended to weak en AHL teams and reduce their chances Tor a playoff berth. The governing representatives of the nine AHL teams also voted to reduce the player rosters to 13 men, Including goaltenders, and announced the 1952-53 season will open Saturday, Oct. 11.
