SIGHT MEDFORD (OREGON) Larry Jansen on Spot Again Against Braves; Rediegs Lose Ground as Chicago Wins 4-2 By TIM MORIARTY United Pres. Sport! Writer Curve-balling Larry Jansen who never ducked a tough as signment when he was with the New York Giants, will be on the spot again tonight when the Cincinnati Rediegs open another vital four-game series against the Milwaukee Braves. In his first comeback start last Friday night, the lantern jawed right hander pitched Cin cinnati to an 8-1 triumph over the Braves. Facing the 36-year-old Jansen tonight will be the Braves new est pitching "phenom," Taylor Phillips. Only 23, Phillips was still in knee pants when Jansen started his pro career in 1940, but he looked like a seasoned pitcher in beating the Rediegs with a seven-hitter last Monday night. Burdetia Shuts Out Cards The Braves warmed up for this latest trip into the Rhine- land by topping the St. Louis Cardinals. 8-0, Thursday night on Lew Burdette's five hitter. The Dodgers remained three games back of Milwaukee by edging the Giants, 10-9. on Duke Snider's 13 th inning homer, while the' Rediegs dropped 3 '2 games off the pace by falling before the Cubs, 4-2, in a day game. . ' Burdette aided his own cause against the Cardinals by knock ing in two runs during a five run burst in the opening inning. Stan Musial collected three of the five hits off Burdette, in cluding a double which enabled him to set a new National league career record of 1,072 extra base hits. Snider's game-winning homer off Dick Littlefield was his 33rd of the season but his first off a southpaw. It came only two min utes before New York's 12:50 a.m. curfew. The Giants had tied the score at 9-9 in the sixth inning on a three-run, pinch homer by Hank Thompson. Wil-, lie Mays also hit a three-run homer for the suddenly-aroused Giants. Sam Jones struck out 13 Cin cinnati batters while his Chicago mates racked Brooks Law rence for 12 hits. The Cubs broke a 2-2 tie, in the seventh with a two-run rally, highlight ed by Solly Drake's key double. Nixon Stops Yanks In the American league, the Red Sox halted the Yankees, 2-1, behind Willard Nixon's neat two-hitter; Rocky Colavito's first major league grand-slam homer helped the Indians edge the Tigers 5-4, and Minnie Mi noso's timely hitting enabled the White Sox to down the Ath letics, 6-5. The Orioles and Sen ators were not scheduled. Jackie Jensen's two-run hom er in the sixth inning provided the Red Sox with their margin. Nixon held the Yankees hitless until the eighth inning. Al Rosen followed up Cola vito's four-ply blast with a bases-empty homer in the third inning that enabled the Indians to fight off the Tigers. Herb Jack Burke Leads Miller Milwaukee IU.P.1 Little Jack ie Burke Jr., the PGA and Mas ters champion, and Ed Furgol. led the way into the second round of the par-smashing $35. 000 Miller Open Golf tournament today on Tripoli Golf course. Burke and Furgol both blast ed seven-under-par 31-32 63s in the first round Thursday, to break by one stroke the course record set by Tripolr pro Hank Gardner two years ago. Altogether 44 golfers fired un der par in showery weather on the first round of the four-day. 72-hole medal meet. Defending champion Cary Middlecoff's 67 gained him only a 12-way tie for eighth. Stocky Jim Turnesa of Spring Valley. N.Y., and Gene Littler of Singing Hills. Calif., fired rec ord-tying 64s and Babe Lichar- dus of Hillside, N.J., a terrific ' driver, came in with 65. Boston Net Officials Take Adventist Entry Portland (U.R) Jim Hodg kins, veteran Portland tennis player, said today his entry in the annual Boston tournament had been accepted after all despite the fact that he cannot play on Saturday because of re ligious beliefs. Hodgkins. a Seventh-Day Ad ventist. earlier had been turned down along with Dr. J. Andrew Crane of Oakland and Crane's son, Mike. Last year Hodgkins and Dr. Crane reached the quarter-finals of the senior division and Crane and his son took a surprising victory in the father and son division final. YANKEE TWIST Hartford. Conn.

Ed Machen Stops Hafer In Fourth Portland (U.R) Speedy Ed die Machen from Redding, Calif., showed last night he not only could dish it out with lightning coordination and brutal blows, but could also absorb some mighty heavy punches. Before flooring Walter Hafer of Washington, D.C., for a TKO in the fourth round of their fight here, the promising young heavy weight demonstrated his capacity to stand up under a withering barrage of swings from his heav ier opponent. It was the 16th straight vic tory for Machen in a short pro fessional career. In' spite of the younger man's impressive record Hafer showed no fear but waded in swinging right hands. In the fourth Hafer came out full of fight and succeeded in snagging the lithe Machen with three rights. But Machen was bid ing his time, stalking his prey. He saw his opening and flashed a right to Hafer's chin. While the big man was tottering, Machen poured in two left hooks to the chin that sent Hafer the rest of the way to the canvas. Both Hafer and his handler, Joe Vella, described Machen as "a great young fighter." GIANTS LOSE BOGGAN Burlington, Vt. (U.R) Just when the New York Giants were beginning to think they would have one of the best defensive lines in the National Football league this season they learned Rex Boggan, 245-pound tackle, will be lost to them for the year and may be through altogether. The former Mississippi lineman, who plays both ways, has a cal cium deposit just above the right ankle and will need surgery. would get I I Mounties Make It 3 In Row Over Angels By john Mcdonald United Press Sports Writer The tailend Vancouver Moun ties who before' the all-star game break killed off Seattle's flick ering pennant hopes, have turn ed their torrid bats against the league-leading Los Angeles An gels in their drive to end the Pacific Coast league season out of eighth place. The Mounties made it three in a row against the Angels Thursday night as they swept a twin bill 13-4 and 5-3. It was the homerun, the Angels' favor ite weapon, that turned the trick for the Canadians as Ron Jack son's two-run blast in the opener provided the eventual winning run, and the Mounties came up with three round-trippers in the nightcap. The Seattle Rainier's climbed to within 10 games of the league leaders as they edged San Diego 4-3; the San Francisco Seals swept into sixth place with a double victory over Portland 5-1 and 10-4 and Sacramento made it three straight over Hollywood with a 9-4 win. Scantlebury Wins The Mounties battered Dave Hillman, the Cherubs' big win ner, in the seven-inning first game as they buried the Angels under a 16 hit attack. Jackson drove in three of the runs with his homer and a pair of singles, and Charlie Beamon limited the Angels to eight hits fon the win. In the nightcap, Wally West lake, Kal Segrist and Jackson homered. Seattle made it two straight under new manager Bill Bren ner as Pat Scantlebury won his first PCL game.

Ageless Jerry Priddy got the Seals in front to stay with a three-run homer in the sixth, his first as a Seal.
