Colts Edge Roseburg 9-8
In Non-League
For a while last night the old
bugaboo of miscues threatened
to prove the downfall of the
Cheney Colts. But the Rogue
Valley League club found its
hitting eyes, got steller relief
chucking from versatile Jim
Taylor and took advantage of
its rivals' misplays. The result
was a 9 to 8 nod over the Jiose-
burg Merchants in a non-loop
semi-pro baseball ruckus at the
fairgrounds here last night.
The Colts had to overcome
two deficits of five runs each to
bounce the Merchants. Roseburg
had gaps of 5 to 0 and 6 to 1 be
fore the Cheney gang swung
into effective offensive action.
A four-run splurge in the fourth
inning got the Colts back into
contention. They tied up the
game and went on top with a
pair of tallies In the fifth panel.
Once in front they stayed there.
Roseburg started the scoring
in the first inning with a single
ton on a base on balls, a fielder's
option, an error and a hit by
Nub Beamer. Two more markers
were added in the second frame
on hits by Francis Sprague and
Phil Telford, a wild pitch and
three Colt errors.
Four Hits In Third
The Douglas county crew got
to Colt thrower Eldon Davidson
for four hits and two runs in the
third inning to make the stand
ing 5 to 0. Jack Meyers, Frank
Weber, Sprague and Roy Child
ress smacked the consecutive
safeties. ,
At that point Taylor, who had
been catching, took over on the
hill for the Colts. He struck out
Telford to retire the side. Tay
lor from there pitched five hit
less innings before yielding a
pair of bingles in the ninth can
to. He whiffed 40 batters and
walked none but three wild
pitchers helped in two runs.
Cheney picked up its first run
in the third inning. Bob Serak
lined to right field and went to
second on a ground out and to
third on a flyout. He scored
when catcher Beamer threw
wild into the outfield when re
turning a pitch to tosser Weber.
In the fourth inning, Taylor
fanned Arlen Weaver but the
third strike heave was wild and
Weaver got to first base. He
went all the way to third on
catcher Doy Gatlin's bad throw
to second and scored on another
miscue. That made the score 6
to 1.
Bigham Triples
In the big fourth when the
gap was cut to 6 to 5, Larry Big
ham tripled and Gatlin, Bill
Caldwell. Serak and jU Rein
king singled. There were two er
rors in the frame. In the. fifth
canto Morrie Churchman opened
the General services administra
tion. This property was at one
time a Coast Guard compass sta
tion. The cabins will not be
ready for more than a year. Al
tofer. a Portland insurance
agent, is moving to Coos Bay.

Norris Exoects
To Close Talks
On Welter Bout
New York U.R) Promoter
Jim Norris expected to close ne
gotiations today for a return
title fight between welterweight
champidn Johnny Saxton and
ex-champ Carmen Basilio at the
Syracuse (N.Y.) War Memorial
Auditorium, probably Sept. 12.
It would be a TV-radio 15
rounder. co-promoted by Nor
man Rothschild of Syracuse.
Saxton of Brooklyn recaptur
ed the 147-pound crown from
Easilio of Chittenango, N.Y.. on
a unanimous but unpopular de
cision at the Chicago Stadium,
March 14.
Although there was no con
tract for a return bout, the dis
pute over the decision indicated
that the most profitable next
title defense Saxton could make
would be against Basilio pref
erably at Syracuse, which is
only a few miles from Basilio's
Chittenango.
The N.Y. State Athletic Com
mission recently cleared the way
for a return match by deciding
that Saxton' could sign his own
contract for the fight despite the
fact that his manager, Frank
Blinky Palermo, has no N.Y.
state license.

Senators in
11 Innings
Br RAY ANDREWS
United Press Sports Writer
There's a lot of different ways
to get the job done and the
Yakima Bears of the Northwest
League seem to know all the
angles.
Last night the league leaders
went 11 innings before posting
a 7-6 victory over Salem. Man
ager Hub Kittle tossed five pitch
ers into the game and Charlie
Drummond, who entered in the
eighth, received credit for the
decision.
The winning Yakima run
came when Dick Neal walked
and was sacrificed to second. He
crossed on a single by Bob Wil
son. For Drummond it was his
seventh victory against two
losses.
Russ Rossburg hit a grand-
slam homer in the first for Sa
lem and the Senators added two
in the sixth. Yakima tied it with
six runs in the seventh on three
walks, three singles and a
double.
Lai riumpnries spaced nine
hits in pitching Wenatchee to
a 4-2 victory over the Lewiston
Broncs.
Wenatchee got two runs in the
first, added one in the second
and got its final tally on Bob
Easterbrook's homer in the
sixth.
Tri-City pushed across two
runs in the seventh to nip Eu
gene 6-5. Pitcher Dave Kostenuk
tied it at 5-5 with a solo homer
in the fifth and Rich Scramaglia
scored later in the same frame
with the winning run.
McElhenny Will
Report for Duty
San Francisco (U.R) Half
back Hugh McElhenny of the
San Francisco Forty Niners said
today his injured foot has healed
so well that he'll report for ac
tion this fall.
"You bet your life I'll report,"
he said. "If I don't get away for
a few touchdowns, then maybe
the league is faster or I'm older."
McElhenny underwent an op
eration April 19 to remove scar
tissue from an ailing foot that
kept him idle most of last sea
son. ,
- In the last week and a half,
he has been working out on his
own at Mountain View High
school.
"I've ben running full speed,
straight on and I've been . cut
ting,",' he said. "I've also been
jumping into the air for passes
thrown by Y. A. Tittle. Boy, it
sure feels good."
He said he still feels a little
pain when he twists or turns
sharply, but he said his doctor
told him to expect that for a
while after he began serious
training again.
