Tacoma riding high,
tied with Seattle
By Ron Supinski
UPI Staff Wrlt.r
The Tacoma Giants shared first
place with the Seattle Rainiers in
the northern division of the Pa
cific Coast League today after
getting a nifty pitching perfor
mance from southpaw Danny Ri
vas. Tacoma took a doubleheader
from Oklahoma City, 11-1 and 1-0,
last night for its fourth and fifth
wins in a row.
Long-ball hitting by Jim Hart
and catcher Bob Barton gave the
Giants an easy win in the abbre
viated opener. The Rlvas al
lowed only four hits in shutting
out the 89crs in the nightcap.
It was Rivas' third consecutive
win without a loss.
Barton banged a throe-run hom
er and Hart tripled across two
more runs to highlight Tacoma's
seven-run explosion in the first in
ning of Uie opener. Hart went 4-4
in tho first game and drove in
tho only run in tho nightcap with
an infield single.
In other games, Seattle dropped
its second in a row at Denver,
7-2, Dallas-Fort Worth scored all
its runs in the ninth to beat Spo
kane 5-2 and San Diego buried
uie halt Lake City Bees 18-5.
Rain and wet grounds forced
postponement of a Hawaii at
Portland doubleheader for the
third night in a row.
Denver, trying desperately to

pitcher's duel for the first eight
innings.
Reed had allowed only one hit

Joe Christian led off the ninth
for the Texans with a single.
Pinchhitter Sandy Valdespino then

Radke has run It in 53.0 as has
Crater's Gary Price. Dennis Han
nan of Burns, however, tops the
field with an amazing time of
51.1. Last week he scored Burns'
only point in the Boise Junior Col

Coach Moore explained that any
one of the 400 meter men men

"If one of those boys happens to
have a good day, (especially if the
others don't) he can win it,"
Moore offered. The same appears
true in the 100 and 200 meter
dashes and in both hurdle races.
Crater has a miler. Jim Ask

He is topped by several others.
Bend's Randy Slate has come
home with a 4:42. Jim Catterson
(Burns) allegedly has done it in
4:42. Scandara (The Dalles) re

Yankees 7-0
By United Press International
It won't require any kind of
medical knowledge to establish
that all Is well with Whitey Ford's
left arm.
It's also lust as basic to base
ball fans that they'll have to find
another excuse it they expect the
New York Yankees to lose the
pennant.
Ford, a clever lefthander with
a pixieish sense of humor, was
bothered by arm trouble part ot
last season and he still wasn't
feeling right when the current
campaign started as he lost his
first two games. Yankee baiters
were quick to point out that a
broken-down Ford would cause the
world champions to run oiit of gas.
The Yankees were rolling on a
full tank Thursday when Ford
threw a four-hit shutout at the
Los Angeles Angels in a 7-0 vic
tory. Ford, who after the game
said his arm felt stronger than
at any time since the 1951 World
Series, now has a string of 16
scoreless innings during which he
has yielded just six hits.

from first place in the American

has been recorded this year in
1:34. Madras also is expected to
be in on the running. Earlier, in
a track dual at Madras, Bend -quartet
won by about six feet aft

Little is known about the Park
rose team, as no times were sub
mitted on their entry sheets. The
westside team, however, is be
lieved to have some better than
average distance men and will
be probably strong in the field
events.
Last year's metric times will

year's competition. Set as metric
standards were the following
track marks: Champ (Crater) ran
the highs in 15.1. Cutter (Bend)
ran the 100 meters in 11.2. Slate

Ford's victory was an import
ant one for Uie Yankees, who had
lost two straight in Los Angeles

to the second division. After five
scoreless innings, New York
broke the game wide open in the
sixth on a bases-loaded walk and
a grand-slam homer by Joe Pepl

the seventh, one of which came
in on a Pepitone single.
