Upstart Hurler From C League Defeats Oakland San Francisco U.PJ The Pacific Coast league is supposed to be headed toward major league status, or something, so along comes a guy named Tony Ponce from the class C Calif ornia league and wins a six-hitter in his debut with the San Francisco Seals. Ponce was liberally splashed with red ink while toiling for the Seals, last-place Ventura farm club in the state league this year. He lost 20 games to set a loop record, although he also chalked up 15 wins for a team that is about 35 games off the pace. Any latent talent the switch hitting right-hander from Whit tier had in his sturdy arm came to the fore Friday night as he handcuffed the Oaks with those six blows. And while Ponce per formed at his best, the Seals la thered three Oakland hurlers for 15 hits and a 15-2 victory. APPROPRIATE Layayette, Ind.

Medford high school football candidates had their first scrim mage Saturday morning and it was a hard one. Head Coach Fred Spiegelberg assessed the results as fair. He reported a lot of hustle but in dicated that his charges lacked finesse, although this lack is to be expected so early in the prep arations for the season. The scrimmage lasted for an hour and Coach Spiegelberg and his staff gave each youth ap proximately 20 minutes of offen sive action. Not much variety was tried, only a half-dozen or so plays being used. One Workout Yesterday morning's, session was the only one of the day. Twice per day practices will re sume on Monday. The morning workout is set for 10 o'clock and Spiegelberg said he is contem plating shift of the afternoon practice to 4 o'clock. Practices have been at 5 p.m. If the weather cooperates by remain ing cool, the earlier afternoon hour will be scheduled, the men tor indicated. The Saturday hassle gave evi dence the Medford will be rather well fixed at the left half slot Alton Stone, who won his letter as a sophomore last year, is one of the main hopes in the Black Tornado backfield this fall However, the 165-pounder may get some keen competition from a couple of inexperienced sent' ors before the season is over. The two are George Huber, 140, and Lloyd Hart, 170. All three ran hard in the scrimmage. Look Impressive The first line youths in the battle for the positions looked impressive yesterday. This gang was Norm Chapman, 187 senior, and Mike DeVore, 184 junior, centers; Bob Steele, 195, and Willard Lilly, 153, senior guards, and Don McLaughlin, 175, and Bob Rasmussen, 183, senior tack les, all are lettermen. Joe Antony, 182 senior letter- man, did well at his end slot and at the other flank a real strug gle seemed likely between Gary Strong, 147 senior letterman, and Dale Gott, six-foot two-inch, 175 senior with junior varsity experience. After the first week of prac tices, it appears that the Black Tornado is pretty well fixed for a starting line-up but Coaches Spiegelberg, Bob Newland and Paul Evensen, with their present helpers, Frank Roelandt, Jim Warren, Mel Boldenow and Bill Shepherd have some work ahead grooming reserves to give the club depth. Roelandt and War ren will shift to jayvee concen tration after school starts and Boldenow and Shepherd will take over junior high chores. 52 On Roster The Black Tornado roster now lists 52 men. Of these 17 are seniors and 18, each, juniors and sophomores. At the ends Antony is the only two striper while Strong has re ceived one letter. Others out for end jobs, in addition to these two and Gott, are Dick Foulon, 149, and Virgil Jones, 165, ju niors without experience; Cliff Pederson, 147, and Jerry Gatlin, 156, sophs and Gary Hart, a sen ior. Tackles McLaughlin and Ras mussen each have been awarded two letters. McLaughlin gained his previous awards as a guard, Bill Roberts, one-year letterman senior, is heaviest of tackle can didates at 212. Other letterman 1 Stars Trounce Angels, 5 to 1 Los Angeles U.R) Harry Fisher hurled a four-bitter yes terday to give the loop-leading Hollywood Stars a 9 to 1 Pac ific Coast league win over Los Angeles before 10,164 fans. The win clinched the city ser ies for the Stars, who have won 17 and lost 14 with the Angeles this year. Today's doubleheader will conclude the 1053 series. The Stars' 11-hit attack Sat urday was paced by Monty Bat gal's ninth homer of the year in the fourth and Jack Phillips' 19th four bagger in the seventh. Hollywood got two runs in the third off Angel starter Bill Mol son. Singles by Phillips, Lee Walls, Tommy Saffell and Chuck Stevens accounted for the tal lies. In the eighth.

Manager of Year New York U.R) Milwau kee's pennant dreams have been abruptly interrupted by Brook lyn's alarm clock but jolly Choi ley Grimm rates serious consld ation as the National league manager of the year with his transplanted Braves. It is a matter of simple math ematics. Not only have the Braves moved up from seventh to an almost assured second place finish in the race for the greatest improvement of any club, but they have improved on their final percentage by 181 points as of now. Not even Brooklyn has done that well, although if the Dodg ers continue at their present pace they will finish with the best won and lost record since the 1042 Cardinals.
