E. Sisemore
Cops Main
A s h 1 a n d Elmer Sisemore,
M-46, made it two in a row at
the Ashland Speedway Satur
day night as he rolled to a main
event victory in a race which
saw but 12 of the 22 starters fin
ished. Both the semi-main and main
events were wild affairs, produc
ing spectacular spinouts, crash
es, lost wheels, flat tires and one
complete roll by Frank Jordan
in P-97.
Sisemore grabbed the main
event lead from Len Johnson,
A-15, midway in the race and
later staved off the persistant
challenges of Bernie Miller, M
86, to score his second triumph
in as many weeks. Miller was
second and Cecil James, M-9,
moved up late in the race to
take third.
A Klamath Falls driver,
George Smith, K-76, scored an
upset triumph in the semi-main
event in another hectic affair. It
was a close battle all the way
with Bob Wilcox, M-ll, Foster
Sever, A-45 and Bob Jenkins,
M-22 trailing Smith in that
order.
Jack McCoy, A-2, who again
spun out during the main event,
grabbed the trophy dash in a
thrilling last lap duel with Fred
dy Fredericks, A-101. Freder
icks, who was in his first dash
of the season, held the lead most
of the way but finally lost out to
the pressing McCoy in the north
turn. Chuck Zarka, A-100, was
third.
An eight-car destruction derby
found Joe Wolfe in a Lincoln
Zephyr, still moving after all
others had stopped.
Other winners were: First
heat, Joe Ellison, A-24; third
heat, Zarka; fourth heat, Roy
Deutchman, M-71; final heat,
Billy Rosenheim, A-0 and conso
lation, Jack Lively, K-97.

In 3 Races
Jack McCoy kept up bis repu
tation as one of southern Ore
gon's most capable hardtop auto
skippers with three firsts and a
second Friday night in .races at
the Jackson county speedway.
McCoy won the main event,
the trophy dash and the fourth
heat. He was second in the spec
ial event matching trophy dash
winners and drivers that have
turned in the fast times in the
pre-race trials this season.
The special run was captured
by Johnny Wyncoop who was
second to McCoy in the main.
Wyncoop topped a field of seven
drivers.
Two spectacular mishaps
slowed down the main event. In
one, three cars piled up and in
the other a racer jumped the
fence.
Joe Ellison in A-24, Bob Radke
A-21 and Neil Wooldridge in R
25 slammed into each other in
front of the stands. None of the
three was hurt but two trucks
were needed to pull the cars
apart.
Over and Out
Floyd McClanahan also escap
ed injury when his M-S7 flew
over the fence on the east turn.
The car rolled but landed up
right. McClanahan drove it back
to the pit gates where he was
forced to sit out the remainder
of the race.
Track officials said they hop
ed the incident ended a cycle of
over the fence mishaps. Roy
Deutschman and Jack Milhoan
in previous weeks hurtled the
fence.
Three-car collision also mar
red the semi-main event. Stub
Fry in PU, Don Wolfe in A-38,
and Bert Smith in M-23 tangled
fenders, but avoided serious injury.
Bernie Miller, who won last
week's main event, was forced
out of effective competition
when he broke an axle. Bob
Jenkins suffered the same misfortune.

ALTERS
Surging Beavers Rap
LA Twice; Slipping
Seattle Drops Two
San Francisco U.R) The re
surgence of the hard luck Port
land Beavers and the collapse of
the mighty Seattle Rainiers
added spice today to a Pacific
Coast League race that other
wise was becoming a runaway
for the Hollywood Stars.
The Beavers swept a twin bill
from Los Angeles yesterday by
identical scores of 3-1 and served
notice on the Cherubs that their
long term lease on third place
was in danger of being broken.
Portland, now two game. be
hind the Seraphs, was rated a
dark horse before the season
opened.
Even as Portland seemed on
the verge of tearing the league
apart, the leauge was ready to
tear the Rainiers apart. Bill
Sweeney watched his team lose
a double-header to last place
Oakland yesterday, 1-0 and 7-3.
Seventh Loss
It marked the seventh loss for
the Sweeneys in eight games and
dropped them 10 full games be
hind Hollywood, which divided
with San Diego. The Stars won
the opener 9-2 and lost the night
cap, 3-1. In theother PCL mat
inee, San Francisco downed Sac
ramento 3-2 in the 12th inning of
the opener, then dropped the
nightcap, 4-1.
Lyman Linde scattered seven
Angeleno hits in the opener to
record his 11th victory. The
Bevos parlayed faur singles into
three runs in the first inning,
which was all Linde needed.
In the bob tailed nightcap, Jay
Heard halted the Stars with two
hits and Fletcher Robbe banged
two homers, one with a man
aboard, to drive In all the runs.
Ends Duel
Bill Howerton brought gloom
to Sudville in the ninth inning
of the first game when he belted
Vera Kindsfather for a home
run. The blast ended a scoreless
duel between the Seattle right
hander and Jim Atkins.
Jim Davis, ace Seattle left
hander, and Tom Lovrich were
bombarded for 11 hits in the
nightcap. Dale Long boosted his
season's home run total to 27
as he paced an 18-hit Hollywood
attack in the first game with
two circuit clouts.
San biego won the nightcap
behind Lloyd Dickey who
pitched a four-hitter for his

Br CARL LUlfDQUIST
New York U.R The magic
number 31 for the Dodgers and
32 for the Yankees today as
New York's Interborough battles
moved relentlessly on toward
baseball's first "token World
Series."
It will be
once again, barring miracles, but
this time the ride to the park
will cost 15 cents or a shiny'
brass token, just three times the
fare for that first meeting be
tween the Yankees and Dodgers
in 1941. And it should be worth
three times the original price,
too.
Eager to Meet
Both teams were sizzling in
the stretch and eager to get at
each other for the fifth time in
World Series competition. Yes
terday, the Dodgers ran their
current streak to nine games by
topping Pittsburgh, 3-1 and 9-5,
while the Yankees defeated the
Athletics, 8-0 and 7-3.
Each team had an identical
77-37 won and lost percentage
of .675 today. Which means the
Dodgers need to win 31 and the
Yankees 32 of their remaining
40 games to clinch the flag, even
if the White Sox and the Braves
should win all of their remain
ing games.
Preacher Roe scattered eight
hits to win his eighth game
while Carl Erskine, with relief
help from Clem Labine won his
14th in Brooklyn s sweep.
Eight and Eight
Erskine struck out eight bat
ters before being kayoed in the
eighth when the Pirates made
four runs, two on a homer by
Frank Thomas.
Phil Rizzuto drove in five
runs with a double and homer
and Vie Raschi pitched five-hit
ball in the Yankees' opening
