By PETER HAYES
United Pres Sports Writer
Wednesday was pitcher's day
in ihP Pacific Coast League and
when the dust had cleared the
Seattle Rainiers saw their league
lead shrink to ZV2 games.
.Three of the six games were
.shutouts and in the others the
losing teams could score only
one run. And two of those three
runs for the losing cause were
unearned.
Good Day
Roly-poly Tony Ponce was the
irst PCL pitcher to enjoy a good
day as he knuckleballed San
0 Francisco to a 5-1 win over Se
attle. Tony allowed nine hits but
spaced them out over every in
ning except the first.
Second place Hollywood di
vided with Portland to gain half
a game on the Rainiers. Joe
Trimble of the Stars pitched a
three-hit; 8-1 win in the opener
but Portland took the nightcap,
4-1. on Red Adams' three-hitter.
-rT,.v,i riar-P San Diego moved
to within 4V4 games of Seattle
as Bob Kerrigan blanked uas
t.n nn seven hits.

Beats Lane
Third Time
Salt Lake City (U.R) Bob
Baker, Pittsburgh, Pa., who cur
rently ranks second among the
contenders for Rocky Marciano's
heavyweight title, defeated Rex
Layne for the third straight
time Inst night by taking a 10
round split decision.
Baker, scoring repeatedly with
combinations to the head, boost
ed his hopes of meeting the win
ner of next month's Marciano
Arehie Moore title bout. The
husky Pittsburgher virtually
ended Layne's hopes of making
a comeback.
Baker weighed 207 and the
Lewiston, Utah, fighter scaled
202V2.
Referee Ruby Goldstein gave
Baker five rounds, Layne three
and called two even. Judge Ken
Shnlsen scored it 4-4-2. giving
Layne a 5-4 edge on points, and
Judge Eddie Border favored Ba
ker 5-3-2. The United Press gave
Baker the edge, 4-3-3.
Layne tried to carry the light
to Baker. He built up points in
the early rounds by landing
some good body punches but
midway in the fight, Baker be
gan using his longer reach to
halt Layne's rushes with punch
es to the head.

Youth Gets Big
Chance in Ladies
National Golf
Charlotte. N.C. (U.R) The
Women's National Amateur golf
tournament entered the quarter
finals today with an entirely
new cast of performers and the
pairings gave youth a big chance
to win the title.
The only players left whose
exact age would not be polite
to mention were Polly Riley of
Ft. Worth, Tex., a Curtis cup
member since 1948, and Mrs.
Jane Crum Covington of Orange
burg, S.C., who has been winning
Carolina tournaments over con
siderable span of years.
Others Novice
. The others were all young
sters or at least novices to ad
vance so far: Mrs. Scott Probas
co, 25, of Chattanooga; Anne
Quast, 17, of Marysville, Wash.;
Jane Nelson, Indianapolis young
ster; Barbara Mclntire, 22, of
Toledo; Margaret Wiffi Smith
of St. Clair, Mich., 19, and 21-year-old
Pat Lesser of Seattle.
The feature match today put
Mrs. Probasco against Miss
Quast. The slender Miss Quast,
who ousted Curtis cup player
Grace Demoss Smith in the first
round, came through two tough
matches in Wednesday's rapid
weeding out.

HELEN DAVIES
Enters SO Tourney
Helen Davies
Files Entry
For SO Fray
Mrs. Helen Davies filed her
entry yesterday for the Southern
Oregon Golf tourney at Rogue
Valley Country club and will
aim to regain the women's title
she relinquished last year in
the annual Labor day week end
classic.
The tourney is September 1
to 5.
Mrs. Davies, Rogue Valley
star, won the championship for
seven consecutive years before
being eliminated by Mrs. Rich-
BOB ATKINSON
Ex-SO Champ Back
ard Borst, Portland, in the 1954
semi-finals. She and Miss Sue
DeVoe, also Rogue Valley, will
be the "previous" champions
contending in the ladies tourney.
Sue beat Mrs. Borst in last year's
finale.
There will be three champs of
former year participating in the
men's tourney. Among latest en
trants announced is Bob Atkin
son. He took the crown in both
1951 and 1952. Atkinson's home
course is Columbia-Edgewater,
Portland. He is now an Air Force
lieutenant stationed at Reno,
Nev.
Other Titlisls
The other title winners en
tered are Dom Provost Jr., and
Eddie Simmons. Provost was a
Rogue Valley player when he
took the mantle last year. He's
now a Columbia-Edgewater ban
ner carrier. Simmons, Medford,
holds six Southern Oregon cham
pionships in the 27 year history
of men's matches.
Field of former winners could
swell to four if Skip Nagler,
Eugene, plays.
Among men's contenders also
will be Jack Brand, Lebanon,
who plays out of Salem and is
considered one of the top links
men of the state. Another entry
is Robert Donnelly, Oregon State
college No. 1. His course outside
of school is Columbia-Edgewater
and he's considered one of the
longest hitters in Oregon.
57 Women
A record number of partici
pants in foreseen. Women's entry
list totals 57 and may swell by
the Saturday, August 27, dead
line. The present total is higher
than any previous field.
Tourney committeemen orig
inally set a 192 quota for men's
entries but because of demand
and the apparent fact that a
number of linksmen had not
heard of the limit have added
two more flights. There will be
10 lower flights of 16 in addi
tion to the championship brack
et of 64. A full complement of
224 is anticipated, since there
is a sizable number of players
on a waiting list to fill in for
possible dropouts.
Rogue Valley men and women
are already participating in
qualifying play. All local women,
except those trying for the cham
pionship flight, must finish their
18-hole rounds by next Tuesday.
Local men must complete their
qualifying by Wednesday with
those for the title flight playing
only on that day. Medford wom
en trying for the top bracket
will qualify on Thursday, Sep
tember 1, along with out-of-towners.

Storti Hurls
Eugene Club
To Triumph
By UNITED PRESS
Pitchers stole the spotlight in
the Northwest league last night
as Eugene's George Storti and

neat three hitters to notch shut
out victories over Salem and
Lewiston, respectively, and Spo

run homer to win his own ball
game at Wenatchee.
Eugene's victory stretched
their league lead to three full
games over Wenatchee.
Storti fanned nine and walk
ed three as he out-dueled Sal
em's Bill Dials in Eugene's 1-0
win over the Senators. Ron Jack
son led off the first inning with
a single, stole second and came
home on another base knock by
Ted Hesse for the only run. It
was Storti's 14th win against five
setbacks.
Retires 15 Straight
Raburg. pitched near perfect
baseball, retiring 15 straight, be
fore giving "up an infield single
to the leadoff hitter in the sixth.
He whiffed seven and walked
only one in winning 3-0. Yaki
ma clinched the game with a
two run rally in the sixth when
catcher Sam Mitchell doubled
behind two singles and a sacri
fice. The Bears added another
run in the eighth on a single by
Herm Lewis, an error and a wild
pitch.
" Dick Hogan's homer in the
top of the fifth tied the Spokane
Wenatchee score at 5-5 and set
the stage for Bottler's game win
ning smash. Shortstop Bob Ser
ratto singled and Bottler slam
med the next pitch over the walL
giving the Indians a 7-5 lead and
an eventual 7-6 victory.

Dark Horses
Scramble in
Doubles Mix
Chestnut Hill, Mass (U.R)
Dark horse tandems, who got
their big break when rain drove
all the big names out, scrambled
today to stake out title to the
75th National tennis doubles
crown as . the ill-fated tourney
staggered toward a climax.
Quarter-final matches were
scheduled for today. There were
only two seeded tandems left in
the Longwood Cricket Club
tournament, drained of top stars
by rains that forced seven post
ponements, so nobody was count
ing out the upstarts.
Nobody, either, was counting
out the two seeded entries re
maining, Britishers Roger Beck
er and Robert Wilson and Jap
anese Kosei Komo and Atsushi
Miyagi. The Japanese team, al
ways a threat in any tournament,
looked especially impressive in
play so far.
Serves Notice
Al Harum, a 20-year-older of
Coral Gables, Fla., and his 19-year-old
partner, Barry McKay
of Dayton, O., served notice of
their designs on the title Wed
nesday following their first tour
ney win. The lads, who drew a
bye in the first round and one
by default in the second, beat
Seymour Hunter of Melrose,
Mass., and Ralph Stuart of Oster
ville, Mass., 14-12, 6-3, 12-10.
The most serious dark horse
threat, however, stemmed from
another pair of American young
sters, Jerry Moss, 19, of St. Pet
ersburg, Fla., and Bill Quillian,
21, of Seattle, Wash. They are
already in the semi-finals by vir
tue of a quarter-final default.
