St. Mary's of Medford kept Its
Jackson County B League base
ball record unmarred and
pushed Prospect high from the
unbeaten ranks in the cold, rain
and snow at Prospect yesterday.
The Crusaders won 13 to 1 In
the make up of a postponed fra
cas. It was St. Mary's second
loop decision, giving them a
share with Talent of front posi
tion in the circuit.
All clubs in tht loop are
scheduled to vie on Friday and
the results could put St.' Mary's
nd defending champion Talent
into a battle for lone leadership
when the mix in a make-up en
counter on Monday.
Games tomorrow are Jackson
ville against St. Mary's at the
fairgrounds here, Rogue River
at Talent and Butte Falls and
Prospect either at Butte Falls or
Prospect.
Rogue River and Butte Falls
failed to get in a make-up fray
yesterday and tentatively plan
to play next week.
Jones Heaves One-Hitter
Yesterday St. Mary's got Its
runs in bunches, four in the first
inning and three each in the
fourth, sixth and seventh. Cru
sader Pitcher Jim Jones allowed
only one hit and it did not figure
in the Prospect scoring. A walk,
stolen base and error brought
the lone Cougar run in the last
frame.
St. Mary's was never seriously
threatened in the conflict. Five
Prospect misplays helped in the
Crusader first-inning splurge.
Gerald Darland cracked a ho
mer in the sixth inning with the
bases empty. Dick Paup hit two
for four and Tim Dugan and Ron
Pruitt each two for five. Both
of Pruitt's wallops were doubles
nd drove in three runs.
Jones struckout 12 batters and
only two balls reportedly were
hit out of the infield.
Sacred Heart high beat St.
Mary's 9 to 7 last Saturday in a
hassle at Klamath Falls.

Pitt Makes Bid
In Penn Tussle
By RUSS GREEN
Philadelphia U.R) Pitt
makes a mighty bid to regain
the track glory of the days of
long John Woodruff at the Penn
Relays this weekend, and the
burden falls on the shoulders of
young Arnie Sowell, a slim
speedster whose smooth strides
can make carnival history.
Sowell easily, is the glamor
boy of the 61st annual carnival
which- has 3,100 entries for the
91 events spaced from Friday
afternoon through Saturday.
Eight major relay titles will be
decided, and 13 individual
championships will be run with
seven titleholders defending.
True to the truckhorse tradi
tion of putting a winner to work,
Sowell is entered in five events,
with three of them major relay
championships piled into the
final hours of Saturday afternoon.
Veterans
Punch
As Seals Nick Oaks 11-10
By PETER HAYES
United Press Sports Writer
Chuck Stevens and Sal Taor
mina, two San Francisco veter
ans who weren't expected to do
much this year, unloaded the
big punch in the Seals' 11-10 vic
tory over Oakland in. 11 innings
last night.
Stevens, 37, crashed a three
run homer in the top of the 11th
to provide the winning margin.
He previously had singled for a
total of four RBI's. Taormina
went four for five, including a
two-run homer in the fourth.
Stevens is supposed to be the
Seals' coach but he has been fill
ing in at first base while San
Francisco awaits a "player owed
by the Philadelphia Phillies. And
Taormina had been warming the
bench until last Sunday when he
replaced the slumping Clarence
Maddern in the clean-up spot.
Since then he has banged out 10
hits in 16 trips.
Bill Bradford (1-0), third Seal
pitcher, nearly blew the Emery
ville thriller in the bottom of the
11th when the Oaks came back
for two runs. But Lennie Neal
fouled out to third baseman Joe
Kirrene with the bases loaded to
end the threat.
Johnny Jorgensen, Billy Con-
solo and Jim Marshall homered
for Oakland, the latter two in the
ninth to send the game into extra
innings.
Elsewhere in the PCL, San
Diego's Jim Melton stopped
league-leading Seattle's six-game
win streak, 6-3, and Los Angeles
edged Hollywood, 3-2, in the
ninth on Gene Mauch's bases-
loaded single.
Sacramento and Portland were
idle, having played a double-
header Tuesday.
Washington's birthday is-eele-brated
as a legal holiday in

Nevada.

Durocher Feels Cold
No Excuse For Gomez
New York (U.R) Manager
Leo Durocher of the New York
Giants was angered today over
Ruben Gomez' insistence that
his early-season pitching failures
are caused by cold weather.
"That excuse is not good
enough," Durocher barked after
Gomez was knocked out in the
second inning of Wednesday's
9-6 loss to the Milwaukee Braves.
Durocher indicated he might
skip Gomez's next turn but add
ed: "It won't be because I don't
think he can pitch in . cold
weather, either."

MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE ELEVEN
Walker Cup Captain Sees Tough Time
By BOB MC KOWEN
Huntington, W. Va. (U.R)
The captain of the United States
Walker Cup golf team believes
the historic old course at St. An
drews, Scotland, may turn out
to be a nightmare to the Ameri
cans this year.
Big Bill Campbell of Hunting
ton, W. Va., says the American
team will need every day of prac
tice it can get on the St. An
drews course before the Walker
Cup matches begin' May 19.
"We plan one day's practice at
London and then we'll go to St.
Andrews for five more days of
practice, all of which I guarantee
you we'll need," he said.
Campbell, who played on the
victorious 1951 and 1953 U. S.
Walker Cup teams, said, the Brit
ish are "very optimistic."
Campbell pointed out that the
British will not find many fa
miliar faces on the United States
team and that "They're not in the
habit of giving a great deal of
respect to golfers they haven't
seen play."
The other eight players, in ad
dition to Campbell, are Harvie
Ward of San Francisco, Billy Jo
Patton of Morgahton, N. C;
Bruce Cudd and Dick Yost, both
of Portland, Ore.; Dale Morey
of Indianapolis; Jimmy Jackson
of St. Louis; Joe Conrad of San
Antonio, Tex.; and Don Cherry
of Wichita Falls, Tex.
