0 Q o o o o o Q o o o Cannonading Yankees Blast Orioles To Move Past White Sox Into 2nd; Eye Opportunity To Surge in Front By FRED DOWN United Press Sports Writer Manager Casey Stengel was 3 dining on his own words today but couldn't be happier because his New York Yankees are feast ing on rival pitchers again. . Only a week after Stengel labeled them "the worst hitting New York team I've had," the Yankees unleashed a total of 30 iMows good for 49 total bases -in crushing the Baltimore Orioles, (7-2 and 20-6. As a result of the heavy can nonading the Yankees: 1. Moved past the Chicago hite Sox into second place in ' the American league race only q& . half game behind the Cleve ,land Indians. 2. Stretched their winning streak to four games the long est they've put together since July 2. 3. Attained their largest single game run output of the cam paign and scored in double fig- 'ures for the first time since June 2. 4. Can take over first place by beating the Orioles twice again today. . The Yankees sliced a game-and-a-half off the Indians' mar gin when Cleveland bowed to the Kansas City Athletics, 7-3, Sunday. They moved past the White Sox, who defeated the De troit Tigers, 5-4, and held their three-game lead over the fourth place Red Sox who walloped the Washington Senators, 9-6 and 2-1. Yankees Rout Lopat Hank Bauer homered in each game and Mickey Mantle and Yogi Berra also hit homers in the Yankees' tremendous as sault. They routed ex-Yankee Ed Lopat in a four-run fifth inning in the opener and blasted seven pitchers for 20 hits in the night cap. Whitey Ford received cred it for his 13th win in the opener and comeback kid Tommy Byrne hit his 11th victory in the second game. The Athletics pounded Mike Garcia for six runs in the three innings and went on to snap Cleveland s six-game winning streak with the aid of Art Dit mar's fine relief perfomance. Dit mar took over for ailing Bobby Shantz in the fifth inning and yielded only two hits in 4 2-3 innings to gain credit for his eighth win. Garcia, a 19-game winner last season, now is 8-11. Fleet Jim Rivera scored from third base on Walt Dropo's in field out in the eighth inning to five the Whitf Sox their third win in four games. Billy Pierce won his ninth game of the sea son and first over his former Detroit teammates in two years. George Susce Jr., pitched a seven-hitter for his sixth win for the Red Sox after Norm Zauchin's 23rd and 24th homers paced the Boston to its first- game triumph. Billy Klaus' double, Ted Williams' single an error and Jackie Jensen's sacrr fice fly gave the Red Sox their two runs in the first inning of the nightcap. Zauchin drove in five runs in the opener. Roberts Beats Newcombe In the National league, Robin Roberts and Don Newcombe fin ally met in their long-awaited duel with the Philadelphia Phil lies' star coming out on top of the Brooklyn Dodgers ace, 3-2, in 10 innings. The Dodgers re- bounded to win the second game 5-4, on Carl Furillo's 13-inning single and still lead by lSVi games. Their magic number is "24" with 40 games to play. Roberts' victory was his third in a row and made him the first major league pitcher of the sea son to win 19 games. Newcombe. suffered his second straight loss and now has an 18-3 record. Sid Gordon's 200th homer of his career gave the New York Giants a 4-2 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates in their open- er and the 37-year-old veteran also homered in New York's 3-1 nightcap win. Johnny Anton elli won his 10th game and Jim Hearn his 13th for the Giants. Ted Kluszewski's 40th and 41st homers of the year were not enough as the St. Louis Card inals shaded the Cincinnati Red- legs, 5-4, in 10 innings and the Milwaukee Braves won a 4-3, 10-inning decision over the Chi cago Cubs in the other National league games.

Martinez, who weighed in three pounds lighter than the champ at 162, proved a game and wily opponent and Olson could never quite nail him.

Hurt early Sunday in a one car mishap near Bybee corner, on the Jacksonville highway, was Jerry Lehmen, 20, of 1800 Crest brook rd. The accident occurred at about 2:20 a.m. Car Overturns Investigating officers said the car Lehmen was driving went out of control when a front tire went flat. The vehicle, which had been going about 50 miles an hour, left the road and turned over. Lehmen was taken by Medford Ambulance service to Commun ity hospital, where he was treat ed for ear and arm injuries. At tendants this morning listed his condition as good. Dixie Hinks, 19, of 340 North Central ave., a passenger in the car, also was taken to. the hospital, where she was treated for shock, police said.

There were no in juries and damage to the . two vehicles was listed as minor. Car Hits Pole A one-car accident occurred Exterior Looks Very Necessary in Product Akron, O. U.R) No matter who designed and made the in side of most industrial products today, the chances are that the outside appearance is the idea of a special designer like those in Smith, Scherr & McDermott here. v They are design engineers. They put the "package" around the finished product the out side casing that presents itself to the world. That might be the outside of a radio, a toy tractor, a beer can, a sewing machine or a soft-drink container. They have done all those things. The idea behind the business is .that it isn't enough for a product to be merely good any more. It has to be salable and prospective buyers, whether they be of the general public or from a specialidsd firm, are attracted to the well-finished exterior. junction of Highway 66 and Dead Indian rd. Police said a coupe operated by June Phyllis Mitch ell, 29, of 807 Beach st., went out of control as the driver at tempted to make a turn.

U.R) When her Angora cat disappeared from home, Sherry Lawrence of fered a reward for its return: She said the cat was badly needed because Muffin performed "see-ing-eye" duties for the girl's almost-blind cocker spaniel. FULTON'S RIVAL Orford, N. H. U.R) Don't mention Robert Fulton in this town. Orford claims its native son Samuel Morey built and rin a successful steamboat on the Connecticut River in 1790. Fur thermore, he patented it in 1795. Fulton's boat made its first trip in 1807. e NVdanigterg!M . .tig enowli to Mi a milfoil pounds If takes a lot of fine ingredients to make Oregon's own beer your better buyl Just as most folks keep a supply of cooking ingredients handy in canisters in their kitchens, so we at Blitz Weinhard keep a full "cupboard" of che wholesome grains and malts we use in preparing beer for you. The difference is that our six "canisters" hold more than a million pounds of barley-malt and choice cereal grains. The malt that goes into mellower Blitz has been germinated and modified from the most carefully selected barleys. And cereal grain, while a minor ingredi ent in brewing, is the pure adjunct that gives Blitz the lighter, cleaner taste demanded by today's beer lovers. Top-quality ingredients are only one-third of the Blitz success story ultra-modern equipment and, most im portant, old-world brewing artistry must also receive credit. At Blitz, this artistry emanates from our famed brewmaster, Dr. Max Zimmermann, whose "recipe" for fine beer is winning more and more Northwest folks over to Blitz every day. You are cordially invited to see this combination of f actors working together to brew a truly fine beer. There are conducted tours through the Blitz brewery, Monday' through Friday 10 and 11 a.ni. and 1, 2 and 3 p.m. with group tours by appointment. Pay us a visit soon, won't you? 0 0 Like gifted chefs measuring ingredients, Dr. Max Zimmermann (right) and one of his brewers are seen at the controls that release exact amounts of barley malt to be used in each uniform brew of Blitz beer.

It is transported in altra sanitary, paper-lined grain cars. If all the kernels of premium malt used in the mash for only one Blitz brew (about 430 barrels of beer) were laid end-to-end, they would reach from Portland to Los Angeles 1
