EIGHT MEDFOHD (OHEGOrT) Skinny Pitcher Puts Bums High With Win Over Leaders By JOHN GRIFFIN United Press Sporti Writer Back on the Braves' heels again, because skinny Don Bes sent pitched like Clem Labine at his greatest, the Brooklyn Dodgers set sail today into a schedule of 16 straight games against second -division teams with their pennant hopes flying higher than ever. Bessent, who took over as the Dodgers' No. 1 artist when ace Labine broke a bone in his wrist last week, blanked the Braves for four innings Monday to get credit for a clutch 6-3 vic tory. He now has pitched 25 straight shutout innings. It was the Dodgers' "biggest" win so far this year, for it put them back two games behind Milwaukee with a split of their two-game series. Now, only one game behind in the vital "lost" column, the Dodgers feel the schedule favors them in the run to the wire. Here's why: Of the 33 games they have left, a whopping 27 are against second division teams and only six against top teams. By contrast, the Braves play first-division teams in 14 of 31 games, and third-place Cincin nati meets the leaders 14 times in 29 games. Allows Only One Hit What's more, Brooklyn is the only contender with more home games left thr-.n road games. They play 20 of their remaining 33 at cramped but cozy Ebbets Field where they hit so many homers. The Braves have 14 home games left, the Redlegs only 10. Thin, pale-faced Bessent, gain ing his first victory; in relief of staff ace Don Newcombe, al lowed just one hit in four frames and was boosted to victory by two key plays. Pitcher Gene Conley of the Braves made the first play. With runners on first and third in the top of the eighth and the score tied, 3-3, he fielded Carl Fur illo's one-bouncer and chose to throw to the plate instead of trying for a double play. Before baserunner Jim Gilliam was tagged out in a rundown, the Dodgers had runners at second and third. That set up the second play. Jackie Robinson was purposely passed to pitch to CampanelU. Campanella singled to score an three runners, Robinson coming all the way home from first when the outfield relay was slow. Snider Cracks 35th That gave Brooklyn a 6-3 lead and Bessent kept the Braves at bay. The Braves had built up a 3-0 lead against Newcombe on Joe Adcock's solo homer in the sec ond and Babby Thompson's two- Dick Thorpe Talent High Grid Coach Talent Dick Thorpe, new iioaH football coach at Talent high school has set Wednesday, Aue. 29. at 6 p.m. as time for Bulldog squad candidates to re port.

The only other major-league action Monday saw Chico Carras- MedfordTeibum GP Wrestling Season To Start This Wednesday MAJOR TOM THUMB On GP Card Grants Pass Promoter Elton Owen will open the wrestling season for Southern Oregon with an all star card that could pack the Josephine county fair grounds arena on Wednesday night, August 29.

Rocky Colavito also homered for the Tribe as pitcher Bob Lemon, tossing an eight-hitter, gained his 17th victory and the 198th of his career. Bilko Hits 51st Homer In Angel Win Portland, Ore. (U.R Steve Bilko rapped out his 51st home run of the season Monday night as the league-leading Los An geles Angels edged out Portland, 5-4, in the only game played in the Pacific Coast League. The bulky first baseman's first inning swat moved him within nine homers of the league record established in 1925 by the late Tony Lazzeri. Torpe Hits However, the hero of the Angel victory was pitcher Bob Torpe, usually a mild mannered man at the plate, who connected for three hits including a three- run double in three trips to the plate. The bat work of Bilko and Torpe gave the Angels a four run lead at the end of two in nings, but the Beavers got one back in Cam Calderone's 11th circuit blow in the second. Jack Littrell helped the Beaver cause with his 19th homer with a mate aboard in the third. Angels Move Los Angeles lengthened its lead to two runs in the fourth inning as Torpe singled and Don Lauters doubled to chase him home and it was the Angels needed. Bob Anderson came to the rescue of Torpe after Port land opened the seventh inning with two hits and held the Bea vers in check after they scored One run in the frame on an er ror. Alex liomkowski z-l was charged with the loss. The two teams meet again to night, while Sacramento plays Hollywood, Vancouver meets Se attle, and San Diego goes against San Francisco.

Game Men Will Ask Emergency Hunting Periods Portland (U.PJ 'The Oregon state game commission has asked the 1957 legislature for a law to permit the commission to declare emergency open seasons on big game in order to halt depredations on tree farms and farm lands. Such open seasons, under pro visions of the bill proposed by the commissioner, would be con fined to areas not exceeding that of one township. The commission would be en abled, when necessary, to open on short notice areas where deer or elk were causing serious dam age. A bill which would repeal' the present statute governing boat angling on the North Umpqua river was included in the legis lative program. New reservoirs at Lemola No, 1, Toketee and Soda Springs would be opened to boat angling under the new bill. At present. boat fishing in these areas is prohibited. The program Includes other bills which would repeal the statute defining protected game birds; amend the disabled veter ans license act; amend the stat ute defining non residents to in clude reference to guides and trappers' licenses; amend the controlled hunt statute to limit only antelope tag holders to holding a tag every other year, and amend the statute to elimi- I nate provisions for old age in- 1 J: . i: uigent ucenses.

Norn's, Robinson Seek Compromise New York (U.R) Sugar Ray Robinson, apparent winner over promoter Jim Norris, ex pected today a speedy announce ment of the date and site for his middleweight title defense against Gene Fullmer. Only a compromise over a $10,000 difference in opinion re mained to be worked out, now that Robinson's two-week revolt against Norris finally earned a $50,000 television guarantee from the promoter. Sugar Ray was still asking for a sixty grand assurance, but in such a mild voice that a compro mise appeared in the immediate offing. Emil -K. Ellis, the champion's attorney, informed Norris that Robinson would be ready to go through with the original plan for a Fullmer fight at Yankee stadium, Sept. 25, if desired. He has been in training for three weeks. However, some of Norris' as sistants at the International Box ing club doubt there would be time to "build up" the fight for Sept. 25.

GIANTS ARRIVE Portland (U.R) The pro fessional New York Giants foot ball team arrived here Sunday and immediately set up camp at the University of Portland campus. The Giants meet the San Francisco 49ers here Sept- ember 8 in. an exhibition game. Southern Oregon Gridders To Report on Ashland Al Akins, head football coach at Southern Ore gon college has sent word to SOC football aspirants that training camp will get underway Tuesday, Sept. 4, just 18 days be fore their first game with the Humboldt state college Lumber jacks, Sept. 22, at the Medford High school stadium. Except for a single-point upset by Eastern Oregon college, the Red Raiders, who wound up with a 4-4 won-loss season, would have had as just a claim as any one to the Oregon Collegiate title last year. As it was SOC had to settle for a three - way tie for the crown with Oregon college and Easterin Oregon. Billy Seymour, quarterback operator of Coach Al Akin's spread T attack, holds the key to further progress in the Red Raiders rebuilding program as he did last year. With Seymour pitching, running and punting. Seymour gained little AU-Ameri-can honors, as well as little All Coast, and was a unanimous first team conference choice by the OCC coaches. Outlook Brightened With 21 lettermen, nine of them starters, and a fine group of promising sophomores and transfers, the SOC football fu ture outlook has brightened up considerably. The Red and Black has a veteran backfield complementing Seymour. Half backs Ralph Clarno, the leading scorer, and Ted Tenney, and fullback Don Korns another SOC representative to the OCC first team. Akins is looking for a break away runner, and considerable more team speed from some of the new football prospects that will answer the Sept. 4, grid call. Leading lights on the line are end Dick Smith, guard Chuck Ro- mine and tackle Herb Colley, all whose devoted team play for SOC was far more priceless than the honorable mention OCC ra ting . bestowed them by enemy coaches. Akins also withholds judgment on two sophomores ticketed for the first-string line. They are guard Jim Byrd, and former tackle-end Ray Theiss, who is being counted on to move into the center spot Biggest loss to the Red Raiders was that of tackle Al Sodaro who received all-conference first team honors and little all-coast and all-America recognition. Sodaro is now serving in the Army along with guard Willie Garner. Other lettermen linemen in line to bat tie it out for starting assign ments are John Garrett, Hank Smith, Chuck- Crandall, Tom Ouinowski, Tom Findlay, Don Phoenix High Squad Lacks Experience Phoenix A team "relative ly inexperienced especially in the key positions." That's the football situation at Phoenix High school this fall. Head Coach Jack Woodward reported that 32 boys had physi cals and checked out gear last week. Among these are 11 one year lettermen, of whom only four were regulars in 1955. Nine top players from last year's squad are missing. The backfield prospects for this sea son were hard hit with all four of the 1955 regulars gone. Coach Woodward said that the 1956 club will lack the all-around speed of the crew which last year shared the District 6 A-2 championship with Coquille. He plans to emphasize character building. The four regulars returning are Don Wallace, Perry Sneed, Delford Dean and Gary Sim- monds, all linemen. Other letter- men are Dennis James, Larry Kidwell, Pete Bohm, Jack Thompson, Jim James, Dale Haggard and Fred Faytinger. Linemen Into Backfield The mentor reported plans to shift Wallace from guard to left halfback, Sneed, a 190-pounder, from tackle to fullback and Simmonds from end to right half. Phoenix will have to elect two new co-captains to replace Dan Lovett, all league back, who transferred to Medford, and John Garner, second all-league team back, who dropped out of school. Those lost by graduation, all of whom won all league laurels, were Delmar Brood, Jim Korth, backs; Ray Dahl, Don Blanken- ship, Dennis Bradley and Jli Hobbs, linemen, and Walt Hurl- but, back and lineman. Of the 32 men who were issued equipment. 13 are out for the first time. Of these five are fresh men. PICTURE TUSES REJUVENATED Is your picture tub dull ma weak?
