The Bend Bulletin, Tuesday, May 14, 1963 Spokane lefty back in form, beats Tacoma By United Press International It appears that Spokane's Jon (Nick) WiUhite, the top winner in the A m e r i c a n Association last year, has found his stuff in the Pacific Coast League. After winning 18 games at Oma ha in 1962, the 190-pound left hander started four games in the PCL this season, completed only one and had a 1-2 record with a 5.09 earned-run average. But he was masterful Monday in shutting out the Tacoma Giants 1-0 on four hits. Tacoma, a farm club of the San Francisco Giants, is the second best hitting club in the league. In other games. Oklahoma City got six-hit pitching from former Houston Colt pitcher George Bru net to beat Salt Lake City 5-1, Dallas-Fort Worth downed Denver 6- 1 behind Ray Jablonski's homer and run-producing single, and Ha waii scored five times in the first two innings and hung on for a 7- 5 win over Portland. Spokane's Rod Graber singled to drive in Bart Shirley with the game's only run in the bottom of the ninth. Willhite, signed by the Los Angeles Dodgers for an esti f mated $50,000 bonus, went the route in notching his team's sec ond shutout of the season. The loss, protested by Tacoma manager Andy Gilbert, dropped the Giants a full game behind pace-setting Seattle in the North ern Division. Tlie controversy developed when Tacoma's Felix Maldonado ticked foul a third strike into the mitt of Spokane catcher Lib Julian. Gilbert claimed Julian dropped the ball. Plate umpire Frank Des lin, who said his view was blocked by the catcher, ruled that Julian had held onto the ball after con sulting with base umpire Russ Goetz. Tacoma starter Jim Constable pitched four-hit ball through eight innings before being lifted in favor of John Goez (0-2) who was tagged with the loss. George Bamberger (2-3) and Jim Rantz combined to pitch Dallas-Fort Worth to its win-over the Denver Bears who abosrbed their 20th defeat to become the losing ist team in the PCL. Bamberger allowed only four hits over the first five innings but was relieved by Rantz in the sixth after being touched for three singles and a run. Rantz allowed only one hit the rest of the way. In another solid pitching per formance, Oklahoma City's Brunet won his first PCL game when the 89ers scored three runs in the sixth on three singles, a double and a walk. 89er shortstop Jim Mahoncy drove in three runs with a homer and two singles. Salt Lake's Gordon Seyfried (1-5) was the loser. At Honolulu, the Islanders went to work on starter and loser Paul Seitz of Portland, but then hung on for dear life as Portland kept nibbling away at Islander hurler Dick Sovde. Reliever Bob Duliba finally shut the door on the Beavers. Charlie Decs led the Islanders with three hits. Linescores: Portland 022400-001 5-11-0 Hawaii 230-000-020 7-10-3 Seitz, Flynn (2) R. A.

CHICAGO (UPD-Chicago White Sox Manager Al Lopez today charged that Los Angeles Angels' relief pitcher Cean Chance throws a spit ball. Lopez charged Chance with throwing the illegal pitch in the Angels' 7-3 victory over the White Sox Monday night. The veteran Lopez who both batted against and caught the spit ball, said he has seen more spit- ters thrown this season than he has detected in "many years.' "That Chance threw a couple of dandies last night," Lopez said. "He threw one that (Nellie) Fox didn't hit and one that (Floyd) Robinson did. It reminded me of Burleigh Grimes in the good old days." Chance received several warn ings from plate umpire Bill Kin namon to wipe his hands off after White Sox batters complained. But Lopez contended it should be the responsibility of the other umpires to watch for the pitch. Bill Rigney, manager of the Angels, admitted Chance gave the impression he might be tlirow ing a spit ball. "I don't know if Chance threw spitters or not. He does have a habit of spitting on the ball but he dries it off," Rigney said. Grelle claims he will break mile record LOS ANGELES (UPI) -Jim Grelle has predicted he will run the mile in 3 minutes, 54 seconds .4 second better than the world record Friday night against New Zealand a Peter Snell in the Coli seum Relays. Grelle said Monday he would "not be surprised if tne world re cord falls Friday. Speaking for myself, I feel I can run 3:54.0." Snell holds the accepted record of 3:54.4. However, Grelle is the only man to beat both Snell and Jim Beatty of America in their specialties. Beatty faces Murray Halberg in the 5,000-meter run, the co-feature on the Coliseum program. South ern California track writers favor Beatty over Halberg 19-14. Snell, however, was rated a sub stantial favorite over Grelle 16-6. Snell and Grelle will compete on the same track where Snell last year set an American record by beating Dyrol Burleson. In another poll, the writers favored Ron Morris of the South ern California Striders in the pole vault despite the presence of world record holder John Pennel of Northeast Louisiana State at 16 feet 6 3-5 inches. C. K. Yang of UCLA and Formosa was ranked th'ird by the scribes.- "I feel I'm ready to go for the top mark," said Morris, injured since he won the national Ama teur Athletic Union (NAAU) crown last year as the nation's top vaulter. At Fresno. Calif., last week, Morris cleared the bar at 16 feet, I inch. In another individual duel, Bob Hayes and Henry Carr meet in the 220-yard dash. Hayes is sitting out a year of ineligibility at Flori da A & M. Carr, of Arizona State University, has a pending world mark of :20.3 seconds on a curve. He also runs the second leg on Arizona State's mile relay team, which will be trying to better its own world mark of 3:04.5. Major league results ...

(UPI) Oarsmen representing a dozen colleges and universities are en tered in tlie Western Intercollegi ate championships at Redwood City next Saturday in what shapes up as the biggest crew event in tlie history of Far West rowing. There'll be a race every 20 min utes starting at 8 a.m. and going past noon. But it's the quality, not the quantity, that has crew fans hail ing this event. It's here tlie unbeaten Huskies and California's undefeated Bears will meet for the first time since their historic dead heat at the end of 2 miles May 4 at Seattle. The two colleges have domi nated U.S. crew this century and each claims one of its all-time strongest boats this year. Their 14:04 times at Seattle in poor rowing weather help back up this claim. But they will both have to be at their best since another entrant in the event is British Columbia, the winner at the recent Pan-American games. Long Beach Stale, UCLA, and Stanford appear to be the best of the rest of the entrants but do not figure to match the three top boats. 2 gridders get honors SALEM (UPD Football line backer George Douglass and bas kctliall Ictterman Bob Woodle were named co-recipients Monday of tlie Henry Booth award for out standing scholarship and athletic ability. It was the first time in the 33-ycar history of the award that it has been shared by two athletes. PCL standings By United Press International Northern Division W. L. Pet.
