Bob Buhl, a guy with the "In
dian sign" on Brooklyn, fixed
things today so that the Milwau
kee Braves were giving Cincin
nati the high sign that they're
about ready to take over first
place again in the National
league.
Buhl took care of matters this
way:
He defeated the Dodgers for
the fifth straight time Thurs
day night. 2-0, scattering six hits
and pitching the Braves to with
in four percentage points of the
pace-setting Redlegs, who bowed
to the Phillies, 7-4.
Buhl's fine performance over
the Dodgers earned him his 10th
victory of the campaign just be-
iore a thunderstorm washed out
what was scheduled to be the
second game of a twi-night
doubleheader.
Cut Redlegs' Lead
Big Joe Adcock got the Braves
started with his 13th home run
in the fourth inning off Roger
Craig his fifth off Dodger
pitching and Milwaukee added
an insurance run in the fifth
wnen taaie Mathews singled "i
Milwaukee's virtnrv rut a full
game off Cincinnati's lead, the
Redlegs falling victim to a five
run rally by the Phillies in the
ninth inning. Trailing Art Fowl
er 3-2 until the ninth, the Phils
fashioned their outburst wifh a
two-run double by Marv Blay-
jock and a two-run single by
Elmer Valo. Southpaw Harvey
Haddix, nicked for a two-run
homer by Ed Bailey in the second
inning, was credited with his
seventh triumph.
Long Pounds Homer
Pittsburgh moved into fourth
place by sweeping.a doublehead
er from Chicago. 2-1 and 5-4.
Ronnie Kline posted his eighth
victory in the opener as Bill
Virdon homered for one run and
Dal Long and Jack Shepard each
doubled for the other. Ernie
Basks' 22nd home run accounted
for the Cubs' lone run. Long's
first home run in more than a
month broke a 4-all tie in the
eighth inning of the nightcap
and gained reliever Elroy Face
his seventh triumph. Long also
tripled with the bases full of
loser Sam Jones in the third in
ning to drive in four runs in
the finale.
Al Dark and Don Liddle, two
ex-Giants, teamed up to lead the
Cardinals to a 5-3 decision over
New York. Dark's sacrifice fly
drove in the winning run while
Liddle, who relieved starter Tom
Poholsky, was credited with the
victory. Stan Musial, Hank
Thompson and Willie Mays each
hit homers.
Yanks Extend Lead
In the American league, the
Yankees lengthened their lead to
714 games largest margin of
the year in beating the In
dians, 9-5. while the Red Sox
defeated the second-place White
Sox, 3-1.
Hank Bauer, who learned he
was the father of an eight-pound,
nine-ounce boy shortly after the
game, delivered a pinch homer
with the bases full, the first
grand slam wallop of his career,
to help Johnny Kucks nail down
his 12th victory. Bauer's blow
came off reliever Don Mossie
and offset a three-run homer by
Al Smith in the fourth.
Jim Piersall's two-run homer
in the ninth inniH gave the Red
Sox their victory over the White
Sox. Piersall's blow came off
Jack Harshman, who had hom
ered himself in the eighth to put
Chicago ahead. Boston tied the
score in the bottom of the eighth
on Norm Zauchin's single and
Billy Goodman's double. Leo
Kiely was the winner in relief
of Frank Sullivan.
Tigers Down Senators
Billy Hoeft pitched Detroit to
a 4-2 victory over Washington
with a neat four-hit effort. The
Tigers hopped on loser Bob
Wiesler for two runs in the first
inning and then clinched mat
ters with two more runs in the
fourth. Jim Lemon homered for
Washington.
Left hander Bill Wight of Bal
timore turned in his first shut
out of the year In blanking Kan
sas City, 4-0. Bob Nieman con
tributed a three-run homer off
Art Ditmar for the Orioles, who
snapped a four-game losing
streak and took their 10th game
in 12 meetings with the Ath
letics this season.

Two Cheney Studs baseballers
have left for their homes in Cali
fornia and Arizona. But the re
turn of two squad members and
the acquisition yesterday of a
new infielder should make up
for the loss as the Medford semi
pro contingent fights this week
end to keep its place at the front
of the Southern Oregon league
race.
Outfielder and pitcher Terry
Maddox and infielder Dick
Toney are due back for the
Studs' Saturday and Sunday
three-game series at Coquille.
Player Manager Jack Cooney
and Business Manager Bill Ask
with have negotiated the services
of third baseman Jerry Betten
dorf, ex-Drain player.
Outfielder Jim Steffen has left
for his home in California and
all-around player Jim Taylor
has returned to Flagstaff. Ariz.
Both left for personal reasons.
Medford was idle in the league
last week end. The Studs main
tained their knot for first nlace
but did change company. Pre
viously they shared the lead with
Drain. Now Coquille and Coos
Bay-North Bend are tied with
the Studs.
First Half Ends
This week Medford plays Sat
urday afternoon and night and
Sunday afternoon at Coquille.
Bend is at North Bend for sim
ilar action. Drain has a bye.
(Any one of the three leaders
could have lone hold on first
spot after this week end. And
the fact that the Studs and Co
quille are meeting each other
means that one will be bounced
from first place spot.
Saturday and Sunday con
flicts wind up the first half of
the season.
Manager Cooney said that he
likely will call on Bob Selsor,
Don White and Derald Wooton
for pitching in the Logger se
ries. He did not specify the order
in which they may appear.
Whether Frank Roelandt will
be able to handle the catching
duties is a question. A bone in
his thumb was chipped last Sun
day when the digit was struck
by a ball. Roelandt may be able
to wield a bat but the injury
may hamper his throwing. He
likely will go to Coquille but
Tiger Bob Smith could get the
backstop assignment.
Three From Bend
Cooney probably will be at
first base with Toney at second
and Twink Pederson at short-
j5g stop. Third baseman may be Bet-
tenaort or Bill Martell. Acquisi
tion of the new man will make
Martell available for outfield
duty. Martell or Wooton could
be in right field, John Kovenz
in center and Terry Maddox in
right.
Coauille showed itself a tille
contender by taking all three
games from Bend last week end.
Pitchers may be chosen for the
Studs' series from among Jim
Lehl, Dick Stephens, Runyan and
Stafford. Pete Goodbrod with
a hefty .516 is the only Logger
batter hitting over .300 among
players who have had consider
able service.
Medford enters the eame with
a .236 stick average. Coauille
trails in the league with .207.
lhe btuds return to action at
the fairgrounds here on Wednes
day, July 18. when they play
the Yreka Indians.
