Spolca ne surging Portland peppy Seattle's lead being pushed By Ron Supinski UPI Staff Wrlfr Surging Spokane and Peppy Portland are pushing stumbling Seattle out of the spotlight in their ding-dong battle for second place in the Northern Division of the Pacific Coast League. In the Southern Division, San Diego and DaUas-Fort Worth are two for the see-saw in their dog fight for first place. Spokane lefthander Nick Will hite allowed only two hits in beat ing Denver 3-1 Thursday night while Dick Green's two-run homer powered Portland to a 6-5 win over Seattle. It was Seattle's seventh loss in eight games and dropped the Rain iers into fourth place, their low est ebb of the season. Seattle went into its skid shortly after the parent Boston Bed Sox re called Wilbur Wood, the Rainiers' ace lefthander who was leading the PCL with an earned-nin av erage of 1.12. Wood had a 5-2 re cord. I Home runs by Mel Queen and Art Shamsky backed four hit pitching by Ted Wills and George McWilliams to give San Diego a 4-0 shutout of Dallas-Fort Worth. It was merely a return favor be cause the Texans had blanked the Padres the two previous nights. As a result of its win, San Diego sliced the Rangers' lead to 1V4 games. In other contests, Salt Lake City erupted for seven runs in the fourth inning to chase bonus pitcher Bob Garibaldi while over whelming Tacoma 11-3. and three homeruns helped Oklahoma City waltz to an 11-7 victory over last place Hawaii. Only 2'i games separate Spo kane, Portland and Seattle. Spo kane is four games behind first place Tacoma, Portland 6 and Seattle Next comes Hawaii which is only B games off the pace. Willhite brought his record to 6-3. The only Denver hits off the Spokane pitcher were a solo hom er by Jim McKnight and a single. A wild pitch by Denver reliefer Clair Hickman brought in one run and catcher Mike Brumley lashed a single to score Spokane's other two runs. San Diego tallied three runs in the first inning on a two-run homer by Queen, his 12th, and a bases empty blast by Shamsky, his ninth. Wills (5-3) limited the Rangers to three hits over the first eight innings. McWilliams pitched the ninth for the Padres. He yielded a double to Joe Nossek but retired the next three batters. Ted Sadowski 5-7) was the loser. Bonus Baby Gtts Help Portland scored four runs in the fourth inning and held on for its one-run victory over Seattle. Winner was bonus pitcher Lew Krausse (5-4 who was signed by the Kansas City Athletics for a reported $125,000. Ramon Hernan dez relieved Krausse in the fifth and was untouchable. Seattle starter Jerry Stephenson suffered his fourth loss against a single win.

Unfinished tsmmmsmmsmim Randall rookies tie Murray Bros. 9-9 An unfinished 9-9 deadlock was the result last night when Gordon Randall and Murray ball teams battled for seven inn ings at Harmon Field. Murray Brothers pushed across the tying tally in the bottom of the sixth inning when left fielder Buckley rapped a single to score Brian Metke from second. Metke got aboard when he clob bered a two-bagger. It was h i s second double of the game. He went three for four to lead his teammates in hitting. Jackson started out on the mound for Murray Brothers, but in later innings switched positions with third-sacker Metke, who fin ished out the game. Rich Smith went the distance for Gordon Randall. He led his teammates in batting, too. going two for four. Also garnering two base hits was center fielder Flan nery, but one of them was a dou ble. He went to the batter's box five times. Murray Brothers jumped out to a 2-0 lead in the first inning when two batters were hit by pitched balls, two were walked, and Metke banged out a single. Randall came back for a lone tally in the sec ond when Smith brought home second sacker Apling from third when he hit a single. Apling got aboard via the four ball route, and was advanced to third on two more consecutive walks. Randall base bailers went ahead in the top half of the third frame when they exploded for four runs, and Murray Brothers came right back in their half for three more to knot the contest at 5-5. Randall, picked tip two in the fourth, but Murray Brothers pick ed up three in its end of the frame, to lead, 8-7. Randall, how ever, scored two more in the fifth with the help of the Murray Brothers' tosser who walked five consecutive Randall batters. Thus the Randall nine led 9-8 until Murray Brothers came to its last bats, wherein a lone tally put the game Into the alleged ex tra innings which were not play ed. Officials did not disclose when the contest would be finished. Al so, it was not disclosed whether the game would be re-played or whether the teams would merely play the extra innings. A game slated for last Tuesday will have to be rescheduled, too. The tilt between Oregon Equip ment and Gordon Randall was rained out. On Monday, the Cen tral Oregon Roofing walloped the Murray Brothers nine, 160, in the Rookie League season opener. In that one. Murray Brothers batters were limited to just two hits. Right fielder McCool and third sacker Jackson were the on ly hitters. Last night Jackson went one for four times at bats, but McCool went hitless in four trips. Controversy beginning fo sound like broken record NEW YORK (UPI) - The AAU NCAA controversy sounded like an oft-repeated record today, with Gen. Douglas MacArthur reiter ating his stand that the Amateur Athletic Union has sole sanction ing power in open meets and the USTFF continuing its demands for approval of the other side of the disc. MacArthur again attempted to clear up any misunderstanding on his March 12 communique with a statement Thursday that "open meets are under the sole sanc tioning power of the Amateur Athletic Union. Such meets do not require the sanction of the Na tional Collegiate Athletic Associ ation, the United States Track and Field Federation or affiliated groups." William Russell, president of the USTFF, said in Houston that presidential mediator MacArthur's latest directive was "nothing new" and that the five-star general had previously "clarified the dual sanc tion meets while he gave us authority over our athletes in meets." Russell, with other USTFF offi cials in Houston for the Friday and Saturday track meet, only asked that the AAU submit a for mal request for USTFF athletes to appear in the AAU champion ships at St. Louis, June 21-22. MacArthur, moving to stop the NCAA from allegedly boycotting efforts to field the strongest U. S. team possible for the July meet with Russia in Moscow, has asked the collegiate organization to "refrain from any action which inhibits the free participa tion of any athlete" in any AAU track and field games.

By Unted Press International Ralph Houk and Billy Hitchcock have another feud going and this one could be a pip. The two managers had to be separated during a sudden flare up in New York last summer. Neither threw any punches in Baltimore Thursday night but both got in some hot-tempered con versational licks after the Orioles beat the Yankees 4-2 to take a 1V4 game lead in the American League race. "We'll win the pennant," snapped Houk, obviously smarting over the fact the Yankees lost two out of three games to the Orioles. "Baltimore won't beat us. You can bet on that and you can put it in headlines." Cooling off a bit, Houk conced ed "the Orioles have a good ball club," then hastily added, "but I think we have a better one even with our injuries." Apprised of the Yankee man ager's comments, Hitchcock coun tered: "I'm glad Houk is so concerned about the Orioles. He must really be worried about us to be so concerned." Rally Against Williams The Yanks fell behind early Thursday night, finally tied the score at 2-all in the top of the eighth and then saw the Orioles break the tie in the bottom of the inning when singles by Brooks Robinson and Jim Gentile off loser Stan Williams capped a two run rally. Dick Hall, who relieved Balti more starter Robin Roberts with one out in the eighth, hurled scoreless ball the rest of the way for his second victory, both over the Yankees. The Yankees, who lost Mickey Mantle for at least a month when he suffered a broken bone in his left foot Wednesday night, also suffered another blow Thursday night when starter Jim Bouton was struck on the jaw by Jackie Brandt's line drive in the fourth inning. Bouton, owner of a 7-1 record, was forced to leave the game and had to have 12 stitches taken. Win Fourth Straight In a ball game where there SHIP AND TRAVEL... automated railway UNION PACIFIC Tor information, calk 382-1901 was less conversation, the Wash ington Senators beat the Boston Red Sox 2-1 for their fourth vic tory in a row a:.d their longest winning streak of the season. Larry Osborne's 10th homer with one man aboard off loser Gene Conley in the first Inning was all the margin Dave Sten house needed foe his third vic tory although Ronnie Kline had to be summoned from the bull pen to retire Carl Yastrzemski for the final out of the game. No other games were sched uled in the American League. Over in the National League, the St. Louis Cardinals climbed into a three-way tie for first place with San Francisco and Chi cago by defeating the Philadel phia Phillies 5-4. The incredible Cubs scored a 3-2 decision over the Giants in 10 innings, and the Cincinnati Reds swept a twi nighter from the Pittsburgh Pi rates 7-5 and 10-5 in the only other games scheduled.

We're glad that most people don't wait 33 years to buy their first Volkswagen. But Albert Gillis did, and maybe he had the right idea all along. He didn't buy a new car (or 33 years because he didn't hoppen to need one. He and his 1929 Model A Ford did just Tine by each other. He always did his own repairs and even acked it up at night to save the tires. When he needed o new car lost year, he went out and bought a Volkswagen. "I heard they hold up," he explained. Does he like the VW? Mr. Gillis is 78, o Justice of the Peace, ond not given to hasty decisions. "Your inspectors sure do a good job of inspect ing," was as lar os he would go. But he did mention that he and Mrs. Gilts took a trip for their 54th anniversary. They drove their new VW 6,750 miles and spent 62 on gos ond 554; on oil.
