Newcombe started the game with 33 13 straight shutout in nings to his credit. He blanked the Phillies without a hit for six and one-third innings but with one out in the seventh, Marv Blaylock singled and Stan Lopata followed with a homer into the left field seats. Although his chances of breaking Carl Hubbell's Nation al league record of 46 1J straight scoreless innings now was shattered. Newcombe bore down harder than ever as he went on to post his ninth vic tory in a row and his 18th of the season. The Dodger hitters, mean while, backed up Newcombe by scoring four of their five runs on homers. Randy Jackson hit a three-run circuit clout in the first inning and Duke Snider followed with his 32nd homer in the eighth with none aboard. Willard Schmidt of the St. Louis Cardinals also turned in a neat pitching job against the Chicago Cubs, allowing only four hits as the Cardinals tri umphed, 3-1. Schmidt set the Cubs down with two singles in the first eight innings but need ed relief help from Jackie Col- lum in the ninth when Dee Fondy led off with a triple and scored on a single by Monte Irvin. The Cardinals picked up their three runs in the seventh on a walk, a single by Whitey Lock man, a double by Bobby Mor gan and a sacrifice. Red Schoendienst collected three hits and scored twice on singles by Dusty Rhodes to earn the New York Giants a 4-2 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates. Southpaw Johnny An tonelli registered his 10th vic tory of the season, although he was chased in the sixth inning when the Pirates scored both their runs.

His possible chances of a start ing berth were dimmed last week when he suffered a broken blood vessel on his knee while working on a blocking dummy. How ever, Monte informed his mother, Mrs. Glenn Hoist, by telephone Saturday morning that his leg was much better and he seemed in good spirits. The injury turned his leg black and blue from knee to ankle. He has been running since Wednesday and was out for practice both Thursday and Friday.

Frank Lary of the Tigers pitched seven-hit ball in picking up his 11th vic tory. LIN'ESCORE: NATIONAL LEAGUE Philadelphia nnn nnn onn i Brooklyn 400 000 Olx 5 9 0 h.

RIVERSIDE In Row; Burkemo Has 66 for Day's Low Score By ED SAINSBUHV United Press Sports Writer Chicago (U.R) Money pres sure bothered the front-runners in Tam O'Shanter's "World Tourney Saturday and Walter Burkemo, Ted Kroll and Austral ian Peter Thomson ended with the nine under par 207's to share the lead after 54 holes. However, they had no bulge on the field for deadlocked one stroke behind them were Marty Furgol, Bill Casper, Jr., and Jerry Barber at 208, while at 209 there was the five way tie, Mike Souchak, Fred Hawkins, Jay Herbert, Johnny Palmer and Bill Nary. Both of the 36-hole front run ners were hurt by the pace in the chase from the $50,000 top prize in the S101.200 tournament. Bo Winninger, tied with Cary Middlecoff for the midway lead at 135, blew to a horrible 76 for a 211 total while Middlecoff scrambled all" the way to a 75 for a 210 score, sinking a 20 foot chip on the 18th green to save one stroke. Burkemo, from Franklin, Mich., had the hottest round of the day among the leaders, a six under par 66 which lifted him from the pack into the pace setting position, Thomson, who had been one stroke off after 36 holes, had his worst round of the tournament,, a 71. but still managed to stay in the battle, while Kroll, also a stroke off with Thomson at the midway marker, matched that tally. Betty Jameson, San Antonio. Tex., knocked three strokes off par with a 73 to take the lead in the women pro division with a 54 hole total of 222, six under par. She held a two-stroke edge over another veteran, Patty Berg, Chicago, and a young new comer, Marlene "Bauer Hagge, each with 224. Miss Berg had the best women's round of the day, a 72, Saturday, while Mrs. Hagge turned in a 75. Trailing this trio was women's open champion, Kathy Cornel ius, Lake Worth, Fla., with a 76 for a 227, while there was a three-way tie for fifth at 228, the midway leader, Mickey Wright, Chula Vista, Calif., who slipped to an 82 today, Louise Suggs, Sea Island. Ga., and Alice Bauer. Sarasota, Fla., each with a 77 Saturday. The midway leader in both the men's and women's amateur divisions held on to first place. Anne Richardson, Columbus, O., tallied an 81 for a 250 total, four strokes up on Carol Jo Kab ler, Roseburg. Ore., who had a 78 Saturday, best score in the group, while third place was held by Jackie Yates, the former national collegiate champion from Honolulu, with an 80 for 235. In the men's amateur, Ward Wettlaufer netted a 73 for a 216 mark, even par for 54 holes, and a five-stroke edge over Mar tin Stanovich, Chicago, who also had a 73 Saturday for 221. Al Barkow, Chicago, was third with a 76 for 222. Prineville Boy Loses Williamstown, Mast. (U.R) Edward T. Pfister, Buffalo. N.Y., defeated Ronald Weber. Prineville, Ore., 3 and 1 Fri day in quarterfinals of the Na. tional Junior Golf tournament. Williamstown, Mass. (U.R) Seventeen-year-old Harlan Stev enson of Long Beach, Calif., came from behind to win the National Junior Golf tourney crown on the Taconic course here Saturday. Stevenson, a dark horse and virtually unknown entry until Saturday, toppled upsetter Jack Rule of Waterloo, Iowa, 3 and 1, in the finals of the seven round match play tournament. Bruce Crampton Gains Australian Open Title ' Sydney, Australia (U.R) Bruce Crampton. 20, became the youngest player to win the Aus tralian Open golf championship in the last 23 years when he shot a record-equalling 68 in the final round Saturday to de- f t Kel Nagle by two strokes. The excellent final round gave Crampton a total of 289. Fanfare Ticket sales here for the an nual Shrine Slate-Metro high school all-star football game Aug. 18 have been "very good." However, there are choice seals still available in the block of tickets obtained by local Shriners for sale in Medford. Tickets are avail able at Barker's Men's store and Brown's cafe. They may .be obtained also by telephon-. ing L. C. Taylor. (2-7735). While only four squad mem bers are whacking the horsehide for the league season at a .300 or better average, several play ers with lesser averages have been getting their share of hits for the Medford Cheney Studs lately. The Southern Oregon loop leaders have been hitting well as a team and every man right down through the lineup is po tential trouble for opposing pitchers. Lower average hitters sparking up has been a big boost to the Studs in their successful efforts to stay in front in the circuit. Twink Pederson, who has a season mark of .208, hit five for 10 for .500 last week end against Coos Bay-North Bend to share slugging honors with Terry Maddox, the Studs' top hitter, who slammed eight for 16. Jer ry Bettendorf, whose short sea son mark is .200 at the plate, socked six for 14 in the CB-NB series. Among the leading hit ters. Jack Cooney and John Ko- venz, continued their pace along with Maddox with 6 for 11 and five for 15, respectively. As a team in the Lumberjack series, Medford got 37 hits in 110 at bats for a .336 team aver age, compared to their .267 standing for the full season. GREAT CATCHES Shortage of space necessi tated the omission of some features of fhe games in the follow up stories on the Satur day night and Sunday after noon brushes between the Studs and the 'Jacks. Left out were John Kovenz's tumbling, rolling catch of Tom Hunt's fly deep in center field and the fly ball snagged by Terry Maddox back against the left field fence on Dick Olson's blast. Both were in the Satur day night mix Joe Trembly was. able to score all the way from second base as Kovenx picked him self up but the sensational fielding accomplishment kept another potential run off base. Had not Maddox made his stop, Olson -would have had a home run. SAYS BALL DOWN GROOVE When Bettendorf boomed his second home run of the Sunday afternoon tangle with the Lum berjacks, Kenn Hess, sportswrit- er for the Coos Bay Times, was willing to bet that pitcher Jerry Bartow had "grooved" the ball to the Stud outfielder. Hess pointed out that the two were old teammates. THREE WALKS EACH Dick Toney and Jack Coo ney, who headed off the Med for batting order against Coos Bay didn't have much nance to fatten their batting aver ages in the Sunday game. Each drew three walks in the five times they stepped to the platter.

After that the Lumberjacks knew what to look for on about every pitch. Lane must have been at it again last week when the 'Jacks downed the Loggers again 20 to 7. Coquille pitchers did issue 13 walks but CB-NB collected 15 hits, too. SHOULD BE MORE INTEREST Softball enthusiasm in this vicinity has dwindled away considerably in recent years at least from a fan standpoint. After seeing the season end playoffs of the Jackson Coun ty Softball association, one wonders why there is not more interest. The last two games of the double-elimination tourney were particularly outstanding tussles in fan ap peal and were well-played. They were worthy of a larger audience than the small crowd of mostly players' families who gathered at Hawthorne park. ALL-STAR BROADCASTER Tom MacLeod, sportcaster for the Medford Mail Tribune radio station, KYJC, will be one of the announcers for the Stale - Metro Shrine high school all-star football gam on Saturday. Aug. 18. at Mult nomah stadium. SIGNS OF SEASON There have been a number of signs recently that the football season is close at hand, reports of pros reporting to their camps and stories about college alt stars and Shrine prep all-stars preparing for games. One of the Cleveland Browns Trounce College All-Stars 26 to 0 Chicago (U.R) An "ordinary" pro offense, which included a record fonr field goals by Lou (The Toe) Groza, was more than good enough to whip the 1956 College All-Stars, Coach Paul Brown of the Cleveland Browns sairf today. "Our defense looked a lot bet ter than it did in last year's game," he said, overlooking the 1955 loss by a 30-27 score when he had avenged it by Friday night's 26-0 count. "Our offense was just ordinary." The Browns displayed expert basic football, though, intercept ing two of the All-Stars' 10 passes and permitting the collegians to complete only two attempts for 12 yards. Recover Two Fumbles It was good basic football, too, when the pros recovered two HI-CORD Looks is the big news in this new Roblee corduroy leather. There's something else which deserves headlines.

JAMBOREE OUT Last word from Grants Pass was that Junior Chamber of Commerce hopes for a Southern Oregon conference football jam boree didn't get the organization very far. The proposed project was "killed" from the start be cause of no time for planning. While the Jaycee man who con tacted Medford high coach Fred Spiegelberg and Crater tutor Leonard Warren on the matter told them GP favored the popo sal, he didn't indicate that Mel Ingram, Caveman coach, had said a jamboree would be im possible this year. Another fac tor against a service organization-sponsored jamboree is the schools want to get the profits from such an event rather than letting them go to an outside group. JIMINEZ PICKS SCHOOL Modesto Jiminei. all-Southern Oregon -conference foot ball guard from Klamath Falls in 195S. plans to enroll this fall at Monterey Junior college in California. Brooklyn Dodgers Call Up Howell Montreal (U.R) Veteran catcher Dixie Howell, suspended by the Montreal Royals earlier this season for a night club fra cas, has been recalled by the parent Brooklyn Dodgers. Howell was needed to back up reserve catcher Rube Walker while regu lar backstop Roy Campanella is recovering from a hand injury. of three All-Star fumbles, held the collegiate offense to 121 yards rushing and gave Groza fine pro tection for his four field goals. Groza kicked the ball over the crossbars from the 45, 37, 31 and 34 yard lines as well as con verting after both Cleveland touchdowns to ring up 14 points for the night, an individual per formance eclipsed only by Don Hutson's 19 points for Green Bay in 1940. It' was a new All-Star game record for field goals, too, both for an individual and for a team. The individual mark was .set by Ohio State's Tad Weed when he kicked three field goals for the All-Stars last year. The mark had been set by a team in 1939 when Ward Cuff kicked one field goal and Kenn Strong two in a 9-0 New York Giants win.
