SIX MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE
Angels Top Padres
Twice; Suds Split
Pair With
By DON THACKREY
United Press Sports Writer
Rain cut Sunday's Pacific
Coast League schedule in half
and the Los Angeles Angels did
the same thing with San Diego's
defending champions.
The Angels got the only two
home runs of the PCL afternoon
and each was enough to win a
ball game. Steve Bilko hammer
ed a homer in the 12th inning
to give Los Angeles a 5-4 win
over the Padres and Buzz Clark
son hit for the victory margin in
the 3-2 second game.
Seattle defeated Hollywood 10
5 in the opener and then lost
2-1 in the nightcap of the only
other game. Portland at San
Francisco and Oakland at Sacra
mento were postponed because
of rain.
Bilko's game winner was a
tremendous 430-foot blast that
went out of the park over the
center field fence. San Diego had
sent the game into extra innings
by coming up with two runs in
the bottom of the ninth.
Turk Lown pitched the final
three and two-thirds innings of
the opening game and received
credit for the win as he gave
up only one hit.
Then in the second contest
Lown again came in from the
bull pen to preserve the victory
for Joe Kuncl.
Clarkson hit his homer with
nobody on in the sixth inning
to stretch the Angel lead to three
runs just what was needed for
victory when the Padres came
back with two tallies in the bot
tom of the frame.

faction of a howling crowd
which filled the arena just about
to capacity.
. Winters won her victory the
hard way, spotting her foe the
first fall, and might not have
had her hand raised at the and
had it not been for a little help
from Jean Elbon, herself a classy
mat performer, who was acting
as Winters' second.
Elbon Gives Assistance
After Hunter had taken the
first fall with a surfboard in 10
minutes and 30 seconds and Win
ters had evened the spills in 6:30
with a headlock, Hunter picked
the bronc rider up and started
to throw her over the top rope.
Elbon, standing on the floor out
side the ring, reached in arid
pulled Hunter's feet from under
her. Hunter came down in a
heap with Winters on top and
Referee Buck Davidson tolled
off the necessary three to give
Winters the win.
Bedlam broke loose in the
arena and Yoggi Hussane, who
had stopped Man Mountain
Dean Jr., earlier in the evening,
rushed into the ring to plead that
Miss Hunter had been given a
bad deal. His pleas fell on deaf
ears, however, and the decision
was allowed to stand.
Dean Outsmarted
Hussane, behind one fall, out
smarted Dean to even their feud.
The big bearded Georgian gained
the first fall with shoulder butts
and his famed "belly flop" in
14:20. He tried shoulder butts
again but Hussane dropped out
of the way and Dean went flying
through the ropes, landing on his
head. He was unable to beat
Davidson's count and Hussane
was given the fall. Time was
1:50. The Turk was given the de
ciding fall when Dean was un
able to come back.
Cyclone Cobb was hard press
ed, much to the surprise of the
fans, to take a lone fall verdict
over Larry Presnell in the open
er. It was a spectacular wrestling
match with the Portland police
man matching hold for hold with
Cobb. Presnell was caught in an
abdominal stretch at the 26:50
mark and was unable to get the
equalizing fall in the remaining
three minutes and 10 seconds.
New Opening Day
Athletics' Hope
Kansas City (U.R) The Kan
sas City Athletics may be hop
ing for a new "opening day"
when they play host to the
Cleveland Indians here tonight.
Since winning their opening
game, 6-2 over Detroit last Tues
day, the A's have lost all four
games they've played the last
three on the road. Sunday they
lost both ends of a twin bill to
Detroit, 8-3 and 16-0.
Southpaw Alex Kellner, who
pitched the opening game
triumph, was scheduled to try"!
it again tonight.
ATHLETE OF MONTH
New York (U.R) Goalie Ter

Wings, winner of hockey's Stan

Dodgers
Red Sox
By FRED DOWN
United Press Sports Writer
The unbeaten Brooklyn Dodg
ers are making the fastest start
the National league has seen in
15 years, while the New York
Giants are off to the poorest de
fense of the league champion
ship since the Cincinnati Red
legs blew four straight games to
open the 1941 campaign.
The Dodgers ran their winning
streak to six games with 10-3
and 3-2 victories over the Pitts
burgh Pirates Sunday and the
Giants' slump mounted to five
losses in six games when they
dropped a pair of 4-2 decisions
to the Philadelphia Phillies. The
Dodgers will try for their sev
enth straight against the Phillies
tonight while the Giants attempt
to right themselves in an after
noon game-; with the Pirates.
The Dodgers' six straight wins
gave them the best "getaway
streak" in the circuit since they
reeled off nine in a row in 1940.
That nine straight to open a sea
son is the major league record,
which they share with the 1944
St. Louis Browns and the 1918
Giants. Since 1940, no N.L. team
has started a season with more
than five- straight victories.
Heavy Hitting
The Dodgers blasted out 15
hits, including seven doubles
and homers by Duke Snider and
Roy Campanella, to win the first
game behind Johnny Podres' six
hitter and took the nightcap
when Clem Labine and Jim
Hughes collaborated in another
six-hitter.
The Phillies, meanwhile,
dropped the Giants into a tie for
sixth place behind the solid
pitching of Robin Roberts and
Murry Dickson. Roberts bested
Johnny Antonelli in an 11-inning
opener decided by Stan Lopata's
two-run homer. Dickson then
limited the Giants to two soatch
hits as Sal Maglie suffered his
second loss of the year.
Heavy hitting marked most of
Sunday's other games, with Al
Kaline providing the greatest in
dividual outburst. The 20-year-old
outfielder hit three homers
and became the eighth modern
player to hit two in one ining as
the Detroit Tigers crushed the
Kansas City Athletics, 16-0.
Kaline, who drove in six runs
hit his first homer in the third
inning and added two more dur
ing a nine-run rally in the sixth
inning. Frank House drove in
four runs and Harvey Kuenn
knocked in three as Steve Gro
mek breezed behind the 15-hit
assault', to his second straight
win of the new season. .
The Boston Red Sox took over
undisputed possession of first
place in the American league
when they outslugged the Bal
timore Orioles, 14-5 and 12-9.
Catcher Sammy White knocked
in three runs with a homer and
single in the opener and drove
in four more in the nightcap.
Faye Throneberry, Jackie Jen
sen and Ted Lepcio also homered
for the Red Sox during the six
hour and . 17-minute blood-letting.
Ten-Run First Inning
The St. Louis Cardinals bowed
to the Chicago Cubs, 6-5, in their
opener but then unleashed the
biggest single rally of the day
a 10-run first inning to win the
second game, 14-1. Frank Baum
holtz's single climaxed a two-run
rally in the ninth inning of the
first game. Larry ,Jackson was
the beneficiary of the second
game outburst, turning in a four
hitter in his major league'debut.
In the other National league
activity, Ted Kluszewski singled
home the winning run with two
out in the ninth inning to give
the Cincinnati Redlegs a 6-5 tri
umph . after the Milwaukee
Braves won the opener 10-1.
Kluszewski, Ed Bailey and Wal
ly Post homered in the second
game after Warren Spahn spun
a nine-hitfer for his second win
for the Braves in the opener.
Bob Lemon's five - hitter en
abled the Cleveland Indians to
score a 4;2 win after the Chi
cago White Sox won their first
game, 3-1, behind Jack Harsh
man's five-hitter and the Wash
ington - Senators beat the New
York Yankees 7-3r with the aid
of two run homers by Micky
Vernon and Roy Sievers in the
other American league games.

Fanfare
Voicing high praise for the
Medford high Black Tornado
track team for its victory Satur
day in the metropolitan division
of the Hay ward relays at Eu
gene, Coach Bob Newland de
clared that "they couldn't have
done any better under the con
ditions under which they com
peted." It was "just like playing in
mud" on Hay ward field, the
head cinder mentor reported,
adding that the field was in the
worst condition that he's seen
it because of rains last week.
Temperature was rather low and
the wind blew and rain fell all
day, according to the Coach.
Pole vault, broad jump and
high jump were moved under
cover in the unfinished area at
the north end of Mc Arthur court
but shot putters worked out
doors in the mire.
EXCELLENT JOB
Newland was reluctant to
single but any one man on
Medf ord's winning relay
crews, saying that they all did
a "real exceptional job." Lead
off men in the races picked
up leads and the others held
them. Jeff Williams ran a
2:02 half-mile in his opening
lap of the two-mile relay and
was ahead by 50 yards. Dan
Morris was in front by 45 yards
at the end of his lap of the
mile relay and Wally Larson
set the pace in the shuttle
hurdles.
FRANCIS MEETS HELD
Eldon Franics, Medford's win
ning javelin thrower, had an
opportunity to meet and talk to
Bud Held, world champion spear
tosser. The Medford tracksters
have had correspondence with
Held but it was Francis's first
opportunity to meet the champ
personally. Held threw the jav
elin in the afternoon, flinging it
some 262 feet, HVa inches, close
to his-record , 263-11 cast. Held
wore football shoes on the wet
turf. - -

Ducks. Jack Moad, state cham
pion shot putter for Medford

Homers Fail
To Excite
Al Kaline
By LLOYD NORTHARD
Detroit (U.R) It takes more
than three home runs in a game
two of them in one . inning
to excite bonus baby Al Kaline
of the Detroit Tigers. .
The 20-year-old outfielder
who was playing high school
ball at Baltimore, Md., Southern
less than two years ago exploded
three round-trippers against the
Kansas City Athletics Sunday in
a 16-0 Detroit rout.
Two of the home runs came in
a nine-run sixth inning, equal
ling a modern major league rec
ord shared previously by seven
players Andy Seminick, Sid
Gordon, Joe DiMaggio, Ken Wil
liams, Bill Regan, Lewis Wilson
and Hank Lieber.
But the always quiet Kaline,
who hit only four homers all last
season, showed little emotion.
"The best day of my life," he
said as a matter of course. "I
guess I'm hitting the ball better
this year because I've got more
confidence than I had last sea
son." With three home runs and a
single, Kaline drove in six runs
and hiked his batting average
to a whopping .560 for the first
six games of the campaign.
He's collected 14 hits in 25
times at bat, six of them for
extra bases, and has chased a
dozen runners home. The 6-foot,
1-inch, 175-pounder hit .276 and
batted in only 43 runs in 1954.
Snead Wins
Greensboro
Greensboro, N. C (U.R) Sam
Snead of White Sulphur Springs,
W. Va owns his fifth Greens
boro Open golf championship to
day by displaying again the mas
tery over the local links that has
earned this event the nickname
"Snead's Tournament."
The veteran pro overtook
young Art Wall Jr., of Pocono
Manor, Pa., on the front nine of
the final round but escaped go
ing into, extra holes only when
Wall rimmed .the cup with i
four-foot putt on the 18th green
Snead took the hole, the
match, and $2,200 first prize
money in the $12,500 tourna-
ment with the birdie four and a
54-hole total of 273.
Wall, in the lead from the
opening round, lost the title as
he shot his first above par round,
a one-over 71. His 274 left him
a tie "with Julius Boros'of Mid
Pines, N. C. for second place.
National Open champion Ed
Furgol, who tied for first in the
opening round, blew up with
two plus-par rounds to finish in
the equivalent of 11th place at
282.
Bad Throw Ends
Fox's Hot Streak
Chicago (U.R) A wild throw
on Bob Lemon's grounder in the
second inning of Sunday's dou
ble-header between the Chicago
White Sox and Cleveland In
dians has snapped the fielding
streak compiled by second base
man Nellie Fox of the Sox.
Fox had gone 40 straight
games without an error, handl
ing 185 straight chances. How
ever, the alltime record for con
secutive cnances witnout an
error is 414, set by Bobby Doerr
of the Boston Red Sox in 1948.
Chicago Trades
Get Punch Sought
Chicago (U.R) The Chicago
White Sox winter trading in
order to add home run punch
is looking good so far.
So far the Sox have collected
four homers this season all by
players obtained from the De
troit Tigers during the winter.
Bob Nieman has belted three,
his third leading Chicago to a 3-
1 win over Cleveland in Sun
day's opening game of a double
header. Walt Dropo has one, a
grand-slam that won Saturday's
game against Detroit, 4-3.
SIDES PROBABLE CHUCICER
FOR TORNADO AGAINST GP
Duane Sides probably will
open on the mound for Medford
high Tuesday when the Black
Tornado travels to Grants Pass
for a Southern Oregon Confer
ence and District 6 A-l baseball
conflict.
Both clubs go into the after
noon scuffle unbeaten in the loop
and the winner will take over
undisputed lead. Grants Pass has
four victories behind it and Med
ford has won three times. Med
ford's chance to be even with
GP in number of triumphs was
weathered ou$ Saturday. Rain
prevented second game of a
doublebill with Klamath Falls.
Grants Pass, because of its
vets back from last year's dis
tict title team, was favorite when
the season started and is still the
team to beat. However, close
scores in most of the tussles in
circuit, so far, indicate that the
Tornado has a fine chance in
