(Bampanella EteGord ao By MILTON IUCHMAM New York UR Boy Cam penella tied the all-time season's rteord for home runa by a catch er and Carl Furillo took over the National league batting leadership Saturday aa the Brooklyn Dodgers crushed the New York Giants 18-7 for a first place margin of 11 games. Following the second-place Milwaukee Braves' 7-5 loss to the St Louis Cardinals, the Dodgers magic pennant-winning number was reduced to nine. Brooklyn will win its second straight pennant with any com bination of Dodger victories and Milwaukee losses totalling nine. Campanellaa' two home runs drove in five runs and increased his season total to 37, equalling the mark set by Gabby Hartnett In 1930. The five runs batted in also increased his total in that department to 131, only two few er than the major league record for catchers held by Bill Dickey. Furillo, meanwhile, hammer ed out a triple, two doubles and a single in four official at-bats to Increase his batting average to 344 This figure enabled the Brooklyn outfielder who hit .247 last season, to replace Al Schon dienst of the Cardinals as the current National league leader. Seventh Victory Duke Snider's 38th homer of the season and Peewee Reese s 14th were other big blows as the Dodgers amassed 17 blows to nresent Rookie Bob Muunen with his seventh triumph. Milli- ken went all the way for the winners although banged for 11 hits, including homers by Al Dark and Bobby Hofman. The Cardinals, meanwhile, scored two runs in the seventh inning on an error and singles by Stan Musial, Ray Jablonskl and Enos Slaughter to take a 6-5 lead and added an insurance run in the ninth on Musial's 24th homer of the campaign. Warren Spahn, trying for his 20th victory, suffered his sixth defeat. Paul Minner limited Cincin nati to eight hits, recording his 10th victory as the Chicago Cubs beat the Redlegs, 5-4, in the only other afternoon game in the ma Jors. The Cubs scored the win ning run in the fifth when Ed die Miksis walked, took second on Ransom Jackson's single and scored on Rocky Bridge's wild throw. Chicago played Cleveland a twi-light doubleheader, New York was at Washington, Detroit at St. Louis and Boston at Phila delphia in American league night games.

U.E Led by amateur champion Jack Westland, elder statesman among this nation's golfers, the United States blasted Britain's best amateurs from the Kittan- sett club's dune-guarded fair ways Saturday for its 13th Walker Cup victory in 14 of these international matches. Top-heavy favorites, the U. S. team members disposed of both the British and the English ama teur champions in their 9-3 vic- Harrington On Hudson Cup Squad Portland, Ore. (U.R) The 10-man amateur team which will oppose a squad of Jhe North west s top professionals in the annual Hudson Cup golf com petition September 19-20 in Spo kane was announced by Rege Ott, chairman. The simon pure team includes five veterans of Hudson cup play and an equal number of new comers. They include: Bob Fleming of Victoria, B.C.; Dick Price, Longview, Wash.; Walter McElroy, Vancouver, B.C.; Harry Givan, Seattle; Erv Parent, Seattle; Bob McRey- nolds, Portland; George Harring ton, Medford; Ray Weston, Spo kane; George Beecheler, Ontar io, Ore.; Clarence Smith, Seattle. Givan, Parent, Weston, Beech eler and McElroy have perform ed on previous Hudson cup teams. Ralph Whaley of Seattle will again serve as non-playing cap tain of the amateur team. Comments Vary In Early Part of Portland Comments on grouse, pigeon, and dove hunt ing in the state have ranged from "terrible" to "wonderful." As in past years, the success of the grouse hunters depends largely on being able to locate broods of the elusive ' drum mers'" or "hooters." Reports from game commis sion field agents indicate a slightly lower population of birds on the west side of the Cascades than last year. In northeastern Oregon, grouse hunting has been very slow for the first few days of the season with the birds widely scattered, In the Blue mountains, success has been fairly good with blue grouse making up most of the bags. Fire Danger Closes On the west side of the Cas cades, many of the favorite grouse hunting areas have been closed to entry because of the tory sweep of foursome and singles matches during two days. The Americans combined the steadiness of Westland. 48-year- old Republican congressman from Everett, Wash., with the sub-par performance of Navy Airman Gene Littler of San Diego, Calif., to subdue the in vaders in this resort community named for a Revolutionary war general. Only bright spot for the Brit ish was the comeback battle of Ronald White, a Birkdale, Eng land, solicitor who fired a one under par final nine holes to re main unbeaten in four walker Cup singles appearances. Less Than Good Except for the 23-year-old Littler, who fired a 3 under par afternoon round to give him a stroke under the par 70 for the day, all scores were something less than good. Well played shots were rare during the foursome matches the U. S. team took, 3-1, Friday and in the singles compe tition that saw them take six of the eight matches today, The number one choices of the two teams for singles E. Harvie Ward Jr., Atlanta, Ga., broker, and Joseph B. Carr, 31, Dublin, Ireland, clothing manu facturer was a repetition of the British Amateur champion ship played earlier this year, Carr beat Ward in the finals to take the crown, but today he was no match for his American host and trailed after four holes of the morning round. Ward's put ting was sharper and he won out 4 and 3. Ken Venturi, a college senior from San Francisco, easily beat James Wilson of Dumbarton, Scotland, 9 and 8, administering the worst defeat since the cup went into competition in 1922. Concerning Luck Bird Season fire danger; however, some hunt ers fortunate enough to find a brood of the fast-flying wood land dwellers have managed to get their limits. Cove hunting interest in west ern Oregon has been mild, but east of the Cascades, hunters are reported to be doing fairly well. In the central part of the state. best success has been experi enced where the birds are con gregating around desert water holes. Last week's inclement weather lessened the number of birds as some of them migrated south. Northeastern Oregon hunters have also done fairly well on doves in Umatilla county. Promise of Better Band-tailed pigeon hunting is, as in the past, concentrated at various mineral springs in the Willamette valley and at certain flyways in the coast range moun tains. Opening day results on pigeons were very spotty, but during the second day of hunt ing, many hunters took limits. As the season progresses, and the weather continues to be warm, pigeon shooting promises to become better until the birds leave for the south. Grouse season will end Sep tember 10 with the daily bag limit set at three birds. Season limit on grouse is nine birds. Pigeon hunters will be able to continue the hunt until Sep tember 30 with the daily bag limit at six birds and the season limit twenty-four. Dove hunting ends on September 15 and hunt ters are allowed ten of the birds for the season. Calgary Defeats Salem Nine 4-3 By UNITED PRESS Eddie Kapp hurled the Cal gary Stampeders to a 4-3 win over the Salem Senators Friday night, and picked up his ninth win of the season in the bargain. Kapp struck out two, scattered eight hits and walked three Sa lem batters. The Stamps netted two home runs. Jim Wert belted his first circuit clout since he came over from the Vancouver Capilanos in August, and . brought in a mate, to put the' Stamps in the fore 2-1. The other Cowboy homer came in the sixth off Don Bucker. Southpaw Bob Collins, who allowed Calgary eight hits, took the loss. In other games, Yakima edged Wenatchee, 9-8; Lewiston de feated Spokane, 9-3; Vancouver walloped Victoria, 6-1, and Tri City at Edmonton was rained out. The Army o Derates 42 bak eries on its various military posts. nardtoppors Will Switch To Sunday Southern Oregon Hardtop Racing association announced that it weekly program at the Jackson County speedway will be on Sundays beginning next week and continuing until the end of the season. Time trials will be at 1 pjn. Cecil James, track manager and veteran driver at the speed way nabbed the main event Fri day. He was trailed by Lou Smith and Jtck McCoy was third. Wayne Dunagan, a rising star, won the semi-main. Geraldine Vlelbig won the special powder puff race with Helen Xurz second and Mildred James third.

James added the trophy dash and the fourth heat to his first place laurels. Don Moore grab bed the final heat and other heat winners were Lou Smith, Le mar Couch and Elmer Slsemore.

Lulu Perez Wins Ring Encounter; Gash Halts Rival New York U.R) Lulu Perez victory songjtoday was: "Willie Pep, stay away from my door." Young Perez of Brooklyn scor ed an eighth round technical knockout over gallant Dave Gal lardo of Los Angeles Friday night, but Lulu's handlers said he fought such a "dumb fight" he's not ready yet for a feather weight challengers' battle with ex-champ Pep. The winner of last night's na tionally televised and broadcast bout in Madison Square Garden was guaranteed a Garden scrap with Pep on Nov. 13. Instead, Perez will meet some lesser op ponent at St. Nicholas Arena, Oct. 18. Only a sensational per formance then will merit re sumption of negotiations for Pep. Californlan Ahead Gallardo, an agile, able and agressive .California- Mexican, went into the ring a 4 to 1 under dog; but at the end of the sixth round he appeared .victory bound. Then came misfortune. A slight gash on the left brow, suffered in the second round, was ripped longer in the seventh and Gallardo was half blinded by blood. Dr. Vincent Nardiello permitted him to continue in the eighth, but at the endtof action in the eighth, the left side of his face was covered with gore. Nar diello told Referee Ruby Gold stein to stop it. Yakima Legion Beaten on Friday Miami, Fla. flJ.PJ Winnetka, 111., was locked today in a bitter end scrap here with Yakima, Wash., for the national Ameri can Legion Junior Baseball championship.

Dick, take a look at it," shouted Hope from the sidelines- "We're not play ing for Jelly Beans, this is for money, you know." (Actually the celebrities are not shooting for money but for a special Arthur Godfrey trophy.) Nixon, on his second shot, sent the ball into the gallery again. Hope objected to the ball handed to him at the tee-oft "This is a painted over ball," he protested. "How far are these Republicans going to go, trying to cut the budget?" Photographers asked Nixon and Hope to get together "for a close-up. Nixon, whose nose has a striking resemblance to Hope's famed "Ski-Nose," commented "you'll never see two noses like this together again." "These two noses could put Sun Valley out of business," Hope retorted. The foursome frequently con ceded four foot puts, but Hope cr- the second Green insisted on p aying one anyway and sank it. The foursome had retired to the "19th hole" before the rains hit. Hope plays again tomorrow with Dizzy Dean and Del Webb Bean-Ball Charge Cause Of Rhubarb New York (U.R) That en chanting rivalry of our national pastime between the Dodgers and Giants threatens . to break out again into a bean-ball throw ing, name-calling and umpire baiting battle in the Polo Grounds. There were a few rninor ex plosions Friday night as the Dod gers cashed in on five unearned runs to defeat the Giants for the eighth straight time, 8-6, despite four homers by the losers. The Beef The big rhubarb came in the eighth inning when plate Um pire Bill Stewart called upon Manager Charley Dressen of the Dodgers and Acting Manager Bill Rigney of the Giants to tell their pitchers to stop throwing at the batters. Leo Durocher, the real boss of the Giants, already had been ejected for arguing with Stewart over a walk that forced in a Dodger run in the sixth inning. "Why are you talking to Rig ney about this, why don't you get Durocher " Dressen asked. "He's in the clubhouse running the game by telephone Just like he always does when he gets tossed out." That riled Rigney, whose pride was hurt and he told Dres sen where he could go. But Ste wart did stop the brush-back pitching which Rigney claimed the Dodgers had started in the previous inning when winning reliever Clem Iabine had thrown close to a couple of hitters. The al' .id offender of the Giants, La..y Jansen, who is not known for such tactics, had prompted Stewart to take action after throwing close to Jack Robinson and Roy Campanella. BOISE.

Meanwhile, in women's play, defending champion Maureen Connolly of San Diego, Calif., led the way into the semi-finals, where she was joined by four time runner-up Doris Hart of Miami, Fla., and 1947 champion Louise Brought of Beverly Hills, Calif.
