SIX MTDrORD (OKGOK) MAIL TRXBUHS UedfosdCT&iburi mm Two Medford Drivers l"Jin at Emigrant Lake Two Medford racers were among the seven winners yes terday in the outboard motor boat regatta at Emigrant lake in which 64 boats were entered. Mel McGrew, Medford, won the D utility fracas and Lor raine Barnes topped a feild of 11 in the women's B combined rivalry. Johnny Garcia, Sacramento, was the day's only double win ner. He took the B service run about and, B" hydroplane compe tition. Other victors were Ray McKeen, Troutdale, in B utility; Frank- Harms, Eugene, in D Snead Victor At Augusta , Augusta, Ga. U.R) Sam Snead's swing, patterned after Bobby Jones' own, has carried him to his second Masters golf triumph and the usually jocular slammer said Monday he will come back next year to make an all-out defense of his crown. No golfer has ever mastered the Masters two years in a row and what happened to Ben Ho gan in Sunday's final round was typical. Ben, one of the iciest competitors in the game, fell apart while Snead drove into the teeth of a high wind to outlast everybody. Snead had been tied with Ho gan at the start of the last round but Snead's par 72 stood up even under Jack Burke's 69 and mild er threats by Tommy Bolt and Al Besselink. It gave him a to tal of 286, four better than Burke's second-place 290. Konno Defeats Marshall Again New Haven, Conn. (U.R), Ford Konno, the Ohio State bul let, completed bis domination of John Marshall of the New Haven Swim club tonight by capturing his third national AAU swim ming crown. The slim Hawaiian upended the Australian star in the 440 yard freestyle in 4:34.5 and came from behind to do it. Mar shall, for the previous two years a triple winner in the AAU meet, finished a poor fourth, almost nine seconds behind the new champ. Earlier in the meet, Konno had wrested the 1,500-meter and 220 yards free-style crowns that Marshall also had won for the past two years. Despite the great one man show by Kanno, Ohio State, the recent NCAA champion was un successful in its bid to dethrone New Haven as the team titlist. New Haven, mainly on its depth in the free-style events, posted 113 points to 97 by Ohio State. The rest of the teams trailed far behind. BASEBALL .Cincinnati (N) 9. Washington (A) 2 Detroit (A) 5.

Portland Oakland Seattle Sacramento .571 .571 .571 .4?9 .429 .1U By PAUL CANE San Francisco U.R) Giant Johnny Lindell felt pretty smug Monday as he relived pitch by pitch his four-hit shutout vic tory over the Seattle Rainicrs, defending champions of the Pa cific Coast league. The Rainiers, by virtue of their title, are no pushovers and merit consideration as a pos sible repeat for the crown. But Lindcil, a huge righthander who once patrolled the outfield for the New York Yankees, smiled as he pictured the Suds drool ing unproductively over his knuckleball. Lindcil felt as important and proud as any film city star. He did, that is, until a teammate gave him the word: Base-hit cra zy Los Angeles appears next on Hollywood's schedule and Lin dell will have to pitch against the Angels this week. 12-Hii Games Los Angeles, as was its cus tom in winning six of seven games from Sacramento, exhib ited a pair of 12-hit games Sun day to cop a ' twin bill from Sacramento, 4-2 and 6-1. Lin dell's Holywood mates, mean while, flattened Seattle on his four-hitter, 3-0, but dropped the nightcap, 5-3. San Francisco, which won its seven-tilt stretch from Portland by the same margin, downed the Beavers, 5-2, on tall Bill Reeder's second pitching win of the youthful season, but lost an exciting second affair, 5-3.

They are built that way because our 45 years of heavy-duty truck building expe rience proves it pays. That's why more than half of all the International Trucks ever built are still making money for their owners. That's why Internationals give you the kind of young-truck performance you want.

(U.R) Jimmy Dykes thinks his Phila delphia Athletics have a 'fight ing chance" to win the Ameri can league pennant, or failing that to wind up in the first di vision. He attaches only one "if to it it his aging infield can hold up another season. It's a big if, for he has few reserves back of the veterans. If they start fad ing it well could be another sixth place finish for the A's. Dykes points out that his club surprise of the week, measured Oakland in the opener, 6-2. be hind ol' Grumpy Guy Flecther, but succumbed in the short aft erpiece to Danny Lithwhiler's two-run triple, 3-2. The Pads, nonetheless, took the week's work, 4-3. L1NESCORES: Portland 010 100 0002 J San Francisco 103 000 Olx S 10 0 Artam. Drilling (Hi and Robinson; Reeder and Orteig.

Hugh C. Willet, of Southern California, and president of the NCAA, said conferences where freshmen are allowed to play may continue to use them dur ing the regular season but the yearlings will not be eligible for NCAA meets in boxing, wres tling, swimming, track, tennis, golf and other competitions. The executive council opened a two-day meeting Sunday and along with the freshmen ruling voted to recommend to NCAA members an insurance plan that would pay injured athletes up to $5,000 for a one dollar prem ium payment.

Short ob Power The records bear him out on that, but the fact remains that he is short on power and speed. Unless Dick Fowler can finally overcome his bursitis, he also may be short of Ditching. But Jimmy doesn't think so.! He feels he has the best left! handed pitching staff in the1 league with little Bobby Shantz. ! Al Kellner, Morrie Martin and Sad Sam Zoldak. For right handers he has Bob Hooper, Carl Scheib. and Joe Coleman. Cole man is a question mark, for he has been of little use for three seasons because of chronic arm trouble. But he showed signs late last season of coming back and Dykes is hopeful. j Two rookies, End Burtschy and Harry Byrd, an IB-game winner at Savannah last sea son, could make the staff and if Fowler is right it could be one of the best in the league.' Zernial in Left In the outfield it figures to be Gus Zernial, the league's home run and runs batted in champion in left; Elmer Valo in center and Al Clark in right. In Clark. Dykes believes he has picked up a power hitter who never re ceived "a fair chance" when he was with the Yankees or In dians. His No. 1 utility man will be Dave Philley, a fine defensive man but only a .262 hitter with rookie Keith Thomas, who bat ted .282 at Kansas City last sea son, likely to win the other gard en reserve spot. The infield will have Ferris Fain, the league's batting cham pion at first; Pete Suder at sec ond, Eddie Joost at short and Hank Majeski at third. Joe Tipton, who can hit the long ball but not too frequently, will start the season as the No. 1 catcher with Joe Astroth and Ray Murray in reserve. TROJANS TOP BEARS Berkeley. Calif.
