Brooklyn's Red Hot Dodgers
Run String to Six Straight
By FKED DOWN ,
United Press Sports Writer
The unbeaten Brooklyn Dodgers
are making the fastest start the
National League has seen in 15
years, while the New York Giants
are oil to the poorest defense of
the league championship since the
Cincinnati Redlegs blew our
straight games to. open the 1911
campaign.
The Dodgers ran their winning
streak to six games with 10-3 and
3-2 victories over the Pittsburgh
Pirates Sunday and the Giants'
slump mounted to five losses In
six games when they dropped a
pair of 4-2 decisions to the Phila
delphia Phillies. The Dodgers will
try for their seventh straight
against the Phillies tonight while
the Giants attempt to right them
solves in an afernoon game w
the Pirates.
The Dodgers' six straight wins
gave them the best "getaway
streak" in the circuit since they
reeled off nine in a row in 19-10.
That nine straight to open a sea
son is the major league record,
which they share with the 191-1 SI.
Louis Browns, and the 191K Giants.
Since 1910, no N.L. team has start
ed a season with more than five
straight victories.
Heavy Hilling
The Dodgers blasted out 15 hits,
including seven doubles and hom
ers by Duke Snider and Roy Camp
anella, to win the first game be
hind Johnny Podres' six-hitter and
took the nighlcap when Clem La
bine and Jim Hughes collaborated
in another six-hitter.
The Phillies, meanwhile, dropped
the Giants into a tie for sixth place
behind the solid pitching of Robin
Roberts and Murry Dickson. Rob
erts bested Johnny Antonelli in an
11-inning opener decided by Stan
Lopata's two-run homer. Dickson
then limited the Giants to two
scratch hits as Sil Maglie suffered
his second loss of the year.

Games on Sunday
From San Diego
By DON TIIACKKKV
1'iiltcd Press Sxrts Writer
Rain cut Sunday's Pacific Coast
League schedule in half and the
Los Angeles Angels did the same
thing with San Diego's defending
champions.
The Angels got the only two
home runs of the PCL afternoon
and each was enough to win a ball
game. Steve Bilko hammered a
homer in Ihe I2lh inning to give
Los Angeles a a-4 win over the
Padres and Buzz Clarkson hit for
Ihe victory margin in the 3-1
second game.
Seattle defeated Hollywood 10-5
In the opener and then lost 2-1 in
the nighlcap of the only other
game. Portland at San Francisco
and Oakland at Sacramento were
postponed because of rain.
Bileo's game winner was a
tremendous 4110-foot blast that
out of the park over the center
fielfl fence. San Diego had sent
the game into extra innings by
coming no with two runs in the
bottom of the ninth.

Lava Bears Get
15 Points at
Hayward Relays
At the Hayward relays held in
Eugene Saturday amid showers
and a muddy track the Bend Lava
Bears garnered in a total of 18
poin's to place low in a list of
15 competing teams from through
out the state. The local thinclads
took a fifth, sixth, and two sec
onds to amass their point total.
The high jump, broad jump and
pole vault events were held inside
in the men's gym at MacArthur
court while the rest of the meet
was conducted on the P.E. track.

local team. Howard Bever, Louis

lay when they crossed the line six
places behind the leading team.
The Bend seconds came in the
distance medley and mile relay
with Richard Moon, Norman
Pease, Lairy Shossow, and Larry
Lermo covering the. course in the
medley while Lermo, Richard Can
non, Gary Cork, and Pease each
ran a 440-yard dash to compose
the mile relay squad.
The times and distance reported
were not up to par because of the
poor conditions in which the meet
was held.
Thirteen of the nineteen boys
that made the trip helped in the
scoring for the locals.

slated for Tuesday of this week
with the Madras White Buffaloes
on Bruin field at 4 o'clock.

SALEM (UP) Manager Hugh
Luby of the Salem Senators, in his
fifth season as skipper of the club
looks to both the Sacramento So
lons and San Diego Padres of the
Pacific Coast League for the bulk
of his Northwest Class B Baseball
League team this year.
The Senators, holding daily
drills at Napa, Calif., have only
15 players in camp, including
Luby. He plans to again play sec
ond base, "until somebody better
comes along."
So far, the only other veteran
of the squad who is a virtual cinch
to stay with the club is Gene Tan
sclli. the shortstop who just missed
batting .300 with Salem in the
now-defunct Western International
League last year. Tanselli was
among the WIL's top shortstops

Tourney Won
By Sam Snead
GREENSBORO, N.C. (IP) Sam
Snead of White Sulphur Springs,
W. Va., owns his fifth Greensboro
Open golf championship today by
displaying again the mastery over
the local links that has earned this
event the nickname "Snead's Tour
nament." The veteran pro overtook young
Art Wall Jr., of Pocono Manor,
Pa., on the front nine of the final
round but escaped going into ex
tra holes only when wall rimmed
the cup with a four-foot putt on
the 18th green.
Snead took the hole, the match,
and $2,200 first prize money in the
$12,500 tournament with the birdie
four and a 54-hole total of 273.
Wall, in the lead from the open
ing round, lost the title as he shot
his first above par round, a one-
over 71. His 274 left htm a tie
with Julius Boros of Mid Pines,
N.C. for second place.
National Open champion Ed Fur-
gol, who tied for first in the open
ing round, came up with two plus-
oar rounds to finish in the equiva
lent of lllh place at 282. '
Defending champion Doug Ford:
-11 Kiamesha Lake, N.Y., went two
wcr par on the third round and
hrec over on the second for a 2S5,
5even strokes over Marty Furgol,
lie man he defeated in extra holes
lasCyleaij.
Boros finished ahead of Snead
and Wall who reached the 18th
even and each needing a birdie to
beat Boros. Snead canned a two
foot putt but Wall's shot failed to
drop and he paired Ihe hole to
tie for second.
C and B ball in the East, are the
current Senator catchers. Both
bat right handed.
Bud Francis, rookie star with
Salem three years ago before he
went into the army, is back with
the club after a spring training
period with San Diego. Other
pitchers, these all on option from
Sacramento, are Bill Walsh, a 230
pounder who got a bonus to sign
with the Sacs; Buz Berrislord,
who played with Tri-City in 1952
and just recently got out of the
army; Bob Tucker, a left-hander
with Idaho Falls ol the Pioneer
League last season, and Ralph
Rose, another southpaw rookie.
John Hanson, who had class D
experience in Alabama before he
went into the army, and George
Connelly, a Portland rookie, are
infielders.
Outfielders are Don Frailey, on
option from the New York Giants,
and Bill Schields, who batted .283
for Idaho Falls last season. Mel
Krause, a Senator rookie last sea
son, will join the squad later this
month. - 1
. Right now Luby is looking for ;
more pitchers, a first baseman,
