Valdes stunned a crowd of 7.500 last night as he took Charles' best punches and came on to win the unanimous, 10-round vote of two judges and the referee. The setback apparently doomed Charles' hones of get- ing a shot at the winner of next month's championship fight be tween Rocky Marciano and Ro land La Starza, and, at the ad vanced ring age of 32, may have ended them for all time.

In his first start for Vancouver last week, he was driven to the showers in the early innings by the Victoria Tyees. Wenatchee's Charley Oubre turned in the evening's next best pitching job, a five-hitter in the extra-inning affair with Edmonton. It was his 13th win against 11 losses. Edmonton's John Conant was trying for his 20th win but suffered his 10th loss. At Spokane, Eddie Murphy's eighth-inning single pushed the Indians into the win column after Trl-Clty had tied the game with a three-run rally in the seventh. Winning pitcher Bill Franks held the Braves to sev en afeties. Lewiston batters hammered out four home runs in the Lew- iston-Calgary clash at Lewis- ton.
