Lane Trade Pays-Off Pronto
As Dickson, Wehmeier Aid SL
By FRED DOWN
United Presi Sports Writer
Frank Lane's acquisition of
Murry Dickson and Herman
Wehmeier paid its first big divi
dend yesterday and proved
anew that the St. Louis Cardi
nals' boss has a "golden touch'
in the trade mart.
Dickson and Wehmeier made
their debuts with the Cardinals
on Sunday, 48 hours after Lane
obtained them in a five player
deal with the Philadelphia Phil
lies, and played key roles in a
3-2 and 14-7 sweep of the Chi
cago Cubs. The victories en
abled the Cardinals to keep pace
with the first-place Milwaukee
Braves, who scored 15-0 and 6-1
wins over the Cincinnati Red
leas.
The 39-year-old Dickson was
0-3 with the Phillies this season
but Sunday he went 8 23 in
nings in the opener to pick up
his first victory of the season.
Jackie Collum, acquired from
the Redlegs in another Lane
deal, won his third game of the
year in the nightcap but it was
Wehmeier, 0-2 this season be
fore St. Louis obtained him, who
closed out the game with two
hitless innings of relief pitching.
Blasted Six Pitchers
The Cardinals scored all their
runs in the fourth inning of the
opener with Dickson himself
doubling to drive in a run. men
Ken Boyer drove in five runs
with his seventh and eighth
homers to lead a bristling 13
hit assault on six pitchers in the
nightcap.
Warren Spahn pitched his sec
ond straight shutout and the
36th of his career and Ray Crone
followed with a six hitter as the
Braves made it seven victories
in their last eight games. Spahn,
Chuck Tanner and Del Crandall
homered in the first game.
Duke Snider drove in five
runs with a grand slam and a
solo homer to lead -the Brooklyn
Dodgers to a 6-4 decision over
the New York Giants. Don New
combe was credited with his
fifth win although he needed
relief from Clem Labine in the
seventh.
Phillies Loss Tenth
The Pittsburgh Pirates hand
ed the Phillies their 10th
straight loss 11-9, routing ex
Card Harvey Haddix in his de
but but the Phillies held a 6-2
lead when the second game was
suspended until July 3 because
of the state curfew law.
Dave Philley's three-run hom
er and George Zuverink's relief
pitching gave the Baltimore
Orioles a 5-1 victory after the
New York Yankees won their
opener, 11-2.
Al Rosen and Rocky Colavito
homered to lead the Cleveland
Indians to a' 9-4 win after Art
Ditmar's four hitter enabled the
Kansas City Athletics to beat
Bob Feller, 5-2, in their opener.
Herb Score won the nightcap
although Art Houtteman fin
ished up.
Billy Pierce scattered 10 hits
and won his fourth game as the
Chicago White Sox routed the
Detroit Tigers, 8-1, and Jackie
Jensen and Jim Piersall hit hom
ers to lead the Boston Red Sox
to a 5-3 triumph over the Wash
ington Senators in the other

Split With Seattle
By SCOTT BAILLIE
United Press Sports Writer
Imaginary memo from Man
ager Bob Scheffing of the Los
Angeles Angels to Manager Stan
Hack of the parent Chicago
Cubs:
"Don't send us any more help
this year, old "pal you need it
all and we're doing fine."
Will it ever happen? No.
Yet the Cubs struggled in
seventh place in the National
League race today while their
Los Angeles property continued
to lead the Pacific Coast League,
thanks to excellent pitching and
solid hitting.
The chesty cherubs swept a
double header from San Fran
cisco Sunday, 9-3 and 4-0, as big
Steve Bilko smashed his cus
tomary home run with men on
base. -
However, Los Angeles couldn't
shake pesky Sacramento, which
remained a game behind in sec
ond place with twin wins over
San Diego, 7-6 and 6-5.
Portland, Seattle Split
Portland and Seattle split
their double header. Seattle won
the opener, 3-0, and Portland
took the nightcap, 3-1. The Sun
day blue law in British Colum
bia kept Vancouver and Holly
wood the league's also rans
chairborne in the lobby.
A rash of three-run homers
helped propel Los Angeles to
its double squashing of San Fran
cisco. Jim Bolger and Bilko each
connected with two mates
aboard in the third and fifth
innings of the opener.
Bob Speake clubbed another
othree-run homer for the Angels

Braves End
Win Streak
Of Chiefs
By JOHN R. LONG
United Press Sports Writer
A long winning streak and an
even longer losing streak both
came to an end with a bang
Sunday in the Northwest League
with Tri-City and Salem provid
ing the fireworks.
Tri-City snapped a six-game
Wenatchee win streak with
gusto, edging the Chiefs 5-4 in
the 10-inning opener of a double
header, then slamming Wen
atchee 15-7 in a "fight-filled"
nightcap that saw both starting
catchers thumbed out of the
game.
Right Combination
Salem finally found the right
combination arid swept both ends
of a twin bill from Lewiston,
8-0 and 8-5, after losing eight in
a row.
Yakima's Bears apparently
were angered by losing to Spo
kane, 11-7 in the first game of
their doubleheader with the In
dians, for they roared back to
claw the Spokane club, 18-2, in
the nightcap.
The fistic explosion was touch
ed off during a Tri-City rally
when catcher Milt Martin
bumped Wenatchee catcher Jake
Lafby while coming home on a
base hit.
Several other fights broke out
before order was restored and
Martin and Lafby were ejected
from the game.
Crater High
Waits Word
On Play-Off

The game was on the neutral
Myrtle Creek field.
The single-game play-off for
the overall district banner will
be played at Central Point.
Rain last week kept schools in
the northern sector from com
peting their slates. Crater
wrapped up its division with
six wins and no losses. .

Veteran Boatman
Rogue to Driving
I'd rather run the river any
day than drive one of the free
ways in San Francisco. The
river's a lot safer, believe me."
That's the feeling of Sid Pyle,
master Rogue river boatman
and veteran guide.
Sid and his brother, Press,
have been running the Rogue,
one of the Pacific coast's most
famed and beautiful streams, for
28 years. They take passengers
on the awesome 126-mile boat
voyage down the river from
Grants Pass to Gold Beach.
The Pyle brothers man the
oars on the stretches over the
Rogue's, torrential rapids. They
take pride in the accident-free
record over their many years on
the fabulous stream.
The thrilling run down the
Rogue has drawn attention and
has attracted travelers from near
and far because of the dramatic
experience, the contrasts and
the fishing it provides. Waters
on southern Oregon farmed river
are rampaging and roaring on
some parts of the journey and
clear and serene at other stages.
bcenery ranges from fresh and
green to rocky and rugged and
life along the banks is both
wild and calm.
Game Abound
Trout, steelhead, deer and
bear abound for the nimrods.
Charging $200 per person,
with a special rate of $150 dur
ing the summer, the Pyles take
as many as eight people at a
time on the five day jaunts down
the Rogue. Days are spent on
the water and nights in comfort
able riverside lodges. Fall trips,
