L09 Angeles (U.R) The
Los Angeles Angels took their
straight Pacific Coast league win
over Oagland Saturday as they
edged the Acorns 7 to 6 In the
10th inning.
The Oaks opened strong by
piling up a 6 to 4 lead at the
end of the fifth frame, but lost
an apparent win In the bottom of
the ninth when Outfielder John
ny Ostrowskl errored to allow
two Angels to reach home and
knot the-score.

extra Inning when Max West
led off with a triple and was fol
lowed by Les Peden and Leon
Brinkopf who loaded the sacks
on intentional passes, Cal Mc

Junus tforos Passes Hogan to
Win US Open Tournament
Dallas, Tex. (U.R) Burley
Julius Boros, a hungry Hungar
ian with only one minor victory
in three years as a professional,
did the impossible Saturday "for
Buttons and the b o y" as he
caught and passed the great Ben
Hogan to win the U. S. Open
golf championship.
Four strokes behind the famed
Hogan as the two final rounds
began over Northwood Country
club's sun-baked acres, the stolid,
unshakeable Boros fulfilled the
fairway faith of the cute little
wife who died giving him a son
less than a year ago by blasting
out a 68-71 281 to win Ameri
ca's greatest golfing prize.
Boros' winning margin was
four strokes as Ed (Porky) Oli
ver of Lemont, 111., closed fast
with a two over par 38-34 72
for 285. That nosed out Hogan
by one shot as Bantam Bean had
a 38-3674 for 286.
Fourth was Johnny Bulla of
Verona, Pa., with a 73 for 287
while they were followed by
George Fazio of Pine Valley, N.
J., with a 75 290; Dick Metz of
Maple City, Kans., 291; Tommy
Bolt, Durham, N. C, and Lew
Worsham, Oakmont, Pa., both
292. Farther back came Sam
Snead, playing with a slight
touch of pleurisy, at 293 along
YMCA Wins
Op
ening Tiff
In Softball
Inaugural of the Medford Soft
ball association season at the
senior high field Friday night
was spoiled by rain. The first
scheduled contest was halted by
rain after five innings and the
second game planned was post
poned. In the abbreviated contest
YMCA topped Eagle Point 7 to
2. Mobilgas and Andy's Jewelers
were to have tussled in the other
contest.
The shortened fracas ended
In a bit of a rhubarb and Eagle
Pointers indicated that they
might formally protest the en
counter. Eagle Point had the
bases loaded with two men out
in the last half of the fifth. The
third out came on an Interfer
ence charge against the third
base coach.
YMCA had its biggest inning
In the second when four runs
crossed on three hits, a walk, a
ground out and two errors. One
of the raps was a triple by Wil
lard Barnum. Eagle Point came
back for two runs In the same
canto on Wayne Gillaspey's hit,
a wild pitch, a walk and two er
rors. The Y got three more runs in
the fourth Inning on a triple by
Don Byeras, double by Ralph
Brock, two walks and a flyout.
One run scored on an attempted
cut-off throw to second base.
Next association action at the
stadium is on Tuesday. The Cra
ter Babes and Eagle Point will
vie in a girls' league game and
Mobilgas will play Camp White
in the men's circuit.

American Women Get Sweep
To Take Wightman Trophy
Wimbledon, Eng. (U.R)
Sweeping through four straight
set victories with relentless
determination, America's tennis
queens completed a 7 to 0 victory
Saturday to win the Wightman
cup from Britain for the 20th
time.
The U. S. lost only one set In
the seven matches.
This was the fifth shutout of
the seven postwar meetings. The
British have won only four
times most recently In 1930,
before the present Yank team
was out of pigtails. The British
have won only four times since
the series was inaugurated In
1923.
Doris Hart, the slender Wim
bledon champion, clinched the
cup in Saturday's first match
with a 7-5, 6-2, conquest of Jean
Walker-Smith since the U. S. had
piled up a 3-0 lead Friday in the
best-of-seven series.
The remainder of Saturday's
matches were mere exhibitions,
but the Americana did not let
that deter their ferocious attack.

old San Diego, Calif., American
Beros Release
Two Pitchers
Portland ' (U.R) The Port
land Beavers Saturday released
two pitchers, one the veteran
Vince DeBiasi of Berkeley, Cal.,
who labored for the Bevos sev
en years.
The other player lopped from
the roster was Larry Cummins,
20-year-old righthander recently
released from military service.
Cummins made the last road
trip with the Portlanders but
failed to see action.
DeBiasi flashed some of his
old-time form during spring
training but leaves the Beavers
with a 0-4 season record and a
lifetime hurling mark of 109
wins and 109 losses. He joined
Portland in 1946 after service
with Oakland and Wenatchee of
the We stern International
league.
JOINS ASSOCIATION
Portland (U.R) The addi
tion of the Oregon State league
to the roster of the Oregon State
Baseball association was an
nounced Saturday by Nick
Sckavone, O S B A president.
Sckavone said the OSL is the
eighth league to join the associa
tion and gives it a total of 53
teams. He termed the new affil
iation a "big step toward unifi
cation of all Oregon semi-pro
leagues." State league teams are
in Salem, Eugene, Albany,

Berra and Gene Woodling drove

theNew York Yankees crushed
Cleveland, 11 to 0, and seized
undisputed possession of the

Boston by three percentage
point.

Hank Bauer singled and Berra
clouted his eighth homer of the
year into the right field stands.
Before the game was over, Berra
drove in two more runs.
Woodling, who drove in three
runs, made the score 5 to 0 in
the third with his fourth homer
of the year that scored Gil Mc
Dougald ahead ef him. Raschi
