Slender Paul Harney, the hot
test golfer on the PGA circuit,
c.tidits a putting tip from his
father a n 8 newly-prescribed
headache pills for his second
major tournament victory in
three weeks.
The graying native of Wor
cester, Mass., continued his
extraordinary sub-par shooting
Sunday to win the $29,000 La
Batt Open and pick up top
money of $3,500. He headed al
most immediately for Kitchen
er. Ont., for the $25,000 Cana
dian Open after registering his
loth under-par round in the last
12 outings. On the other two he
matched par.
Harney, playing his third year
on the pro circuit, finished one
stroke in front of huge George
Bayer, the only player who can
outdrive Harney. Bayer blew a
chance to tie Harney with a 278
when he bogeyed the par-4 17th,
missing a 2',2-foot putt for his
par.
Dow Finsterwald, Tequesta,

able to come up with a big round
and overtake Harney.
handed National league starters.
Only Musial and Bailey are
southpaws.
Alston wants a southpaw to
start for him because the Ameri
can league's starting lineup is
packed with such left-handed
power hitters as Yogi Berra, Ted
Williams and Vic Wertz. Alston
also has Milwaukee southpaw
Warren Spahn available to start
but he indicated he would go
with either Simmons or Anton
elli. Nationals Favored
The weatherman predicted a
warm day for the game and the
oddsmen predicted a National
league victory.
Stan Musial of the St. Louis
Cardinals and Williams are the
grandpappy types in the lineups.
This will be Stan's 14th appear
ance in the classic and the 13th
for Ted.
Musial Is having one of his
greatest years and the Boston
Belter is in the thick of the bat
ting and home run race.
Other All-Star old-timers are
Yogi Berra in his eighth, George
Kell. the sixth and Nellie Fox,
the fifth. The only freshman on
either starting lineup is Cincin
nati third baseman Don Hoak
Using "Home" Park
Several factors contribute to
the slim 6-to-5 edge the Nation
als have in the betting odds.
They will be seeking their
seventh victory in the last eight
games of the inter-league rivalry
and they will be playing in a
National league park. Also, their
combined batting average is nine
points above the Americans even
.300.
Going for the Americans, how
ever, is an overall advantage of
13-10 in the big game, which
dates back to 1933 and skips
onlv the war year of 1945.
This will be the third All-Star
game for St. Louis and it will
be a rubber game as far as the
city is concerned. The now-defunct
Browns were hosts for an
American league, 5-2 victory in
1948 and the Cards entertained
for a 4-0 National victory in
1940.

Chiefs Score
8th Victory
In 2nd Half
By UNITED PRESS
Wenatchee's Chiefs are blaz
ing an unbeaten trail through the
Northwest league pack in the
second half. The Chiefs ran their
winning streak to eight straight
over the week end.
Saturday the Chiefs squeezed
out an 8-7 decision over Lewis
ton for their sixth straight. Sun
day they turned in 12-0 and 3-2
victories over the Broncs.
Jim Bailey whiffed 8 and
walked but 2 in blanking the
Broncs in Sunday's opener.
Chico Alvarez, with a two-run
homer that started the Chiefs off
to a 7-run second inning was the
hitting hero.
The Chiefs won the nightcap
3-2 with two runs in the sixth
Roy Parker's double tallied one
and Don Lundberg's single plated
Parker.
Eugene' completed a four-game
sweep over Trr-City. The Emer
alds took Saturday s game -
and turned in 11-4 and 3-0 de
cisions Sunday.
Mike Acker coasted home be
hind a 12-hit attack in the open
er and Berlyn Hodges hand
cuffed the Braves with three hits

Yakima got out of its winless
ways Saturday with a 5-4 victory
over Salem. The two clubs then
split their Sunday twin bill with
Yakima 10-2 winners in tne open
er and Salem a 1-0 victor in the
nightcap behind three-hit pitch
ing by Chuck Lybeck.
Yakima got to Andy George
in the seventh inning of the bun-
day opener and before the frame
was out had scored all its 10
runs.
Lybeck was too much for the
Bears in the nightcap, however.
Cal Bauer's solo homer with two
out in the eighth was the decid
ing blow.

Leo Kiley Chalks Up Eleventh
Straight Win in Relief Role
By SCOTT BAILLIE
United Press Sports Writer
Leo Kiley, almost as sharp as
the guy who arrives late at a
party then leaves with a girl
on each arm, breezed along for
the San Francisco Seals today
sporting total of 11 straight
victories and all picked up
In relief.
The lanky southpaw boosted
his overall season mark to 12-2
Sunday while the Seals took
a doubleheader from Portland
by identical 4-3 scores to retain
their 2,.i-game lead over Van
couver. Kiley made his customary late
arwal in the sixth frame of
the nightcap and left with the
triumph about 10 minutes later
when Tom Umphlett drove home
the winning run in the seventh
with a sacrifice fly.
The Moundes kept the pace
by drubbing Los Angeles twice,
5-1. and 5-0, while San Diego
and Hollywood split. The Pads
won the opher on the strength
of two homers by Earl Averill
Jr., 5-4, and Hollywood took the
nightcap in overtime 3-2.
In other PCL action, Seattle
downed last-place Sacramento.
3-1. on Bud Podbielan's four
hitter then was walloped, 8-2.
Like The Past
Young Averill, socking them
like his daddy used to do, club
bed a pair of solo home runs
in the opener which made the
difference as third place San
Diego downed Hollywood, 5-4. j
His second blast came in the j
ninth to offset a Hollywood mar-
ker in the bottom frame. Dick j
Brodowski saved the win for
Jim (Mudcat) Grant, who now
is 6-4. Curt Raydon lost his
eighth.
The Stars won the overtime
nightcap in the ninth inning
when Leo Rodriguez doubled
home the winning run. George
Witt, the fifth Twinkle hurler
to enter the fray, got his fifth
triumph. The loser was Hank
Agulrre, 4-5.
Podbielan gave up only one
pass while posting his third win
for Seattle in the initial con
test. Loser Joe Stanka held the
Rainiers to three hits in eight
grames, but two of them came
in the first inning as the Suds
scored twice.
Jim Greengrass, who homer
ed for the Solons in the first
game, drove home three more
in the nightcap with a triple
and two bagger as Roger Osen-
baugh won his fifth game
against 11 defeats. Gene Hay
den staggered the route for Seat
tle to lose his second.
The series ends on three fronts
tonight with Portland at San
Francisco, Los Angeles at Van
couver and Seattle at Sacra
mento. Homeruns Payoff
Home runs played a big part
in both Seal victories. Jack
Phillips smashed one with a
man on in the seventh inning
of the opener to insure the one
run triumph. The blow also pro
pelled undefeated Bill Aberna-
thie to his ninth victory. Then
Frank Kellert tied the nightcap
with another two-run homer in
the sixth inning. It set the stage
for Gene Fodge's third loss aft
er John Carmichael had dropped
his eighth.
Vancouver twice used the big
Don't Say
"Hello"
Say
"FILTER-FLO"
Inning while taking five straight
from the Angels. Erv Palica
grooved his ninth triumph in
the first game which was cinch
ed by a three-run rally in the
eighth frame. A bases empty
homer by Jim Marshall and a
two-run double by Charley
White were the key blows. Red
Adams fought Palica the dis
tance to absorb his fourth re
verse. Eddie Erautt had a one hit
ter on the fire for Vancouver
going into the home half of the
sixth inning of the windup. But
Manager Charley Metro took
him out for a pinch-hitter and
the Mounties cut loose for five
runs. Three came home on a
bases-loaded triple by Owen
Friend. Babe Birrer, a former
teammate, got the loss and Er
autt his fourth win.
Medford s Cheney bums ac
complished their first triumph
m three seasons of series here
with their Seattle counterparts
with a 5 to 2 margin on Satur
day night. But the old hex of
the past two series came back
to haunt on Sunday and the
Rogue valley's top semi-pro base
ball aggregation was the victim
of a 22 to 7 humiliation at the
hands of the stellar Seattle nine
Jerry Droscher's three-run
homer was the pay-off in Satur
day night's decision. It overcame
a 1 to 2 deficit which had been
established by Gene Leek's two-
tally home run for Seattle.
On Sunday the Washington-
ians of Cheney Lumber company
combed three Medford twirlers
for a total of 14 safeties. They
took advantage of a big share
of 14 bases on balls issued by
the home team tossers and of
seven errors charged to the
southern Oregon team. Seattle
had three-run home runs by
Steve Hinckley and Ron Dodge
and a solo roundtripper by
George Kritsonis. A dropped out
field fly also served the purpose
of a "homer" with three runs
coming in on the four-base mis-cue.
Medford also collected solo
four-base hits by Ed Reinking,
Frank Roelandt and Jerry Dro
scher. But they all came in the
final cantos when Seattle had
the fracas in the bag and didn't
appear to be bearing down so
hard as in the early frames.
Droscher's roundtrip clout
over the left field fence, which
proved the key hit, in the Satur
day night Medford verdict, came
in the sixth inning, it followed
a two-base line safety by Frank
Roelandt and a walk to Ron
Owings. After the homer, Frank
Rector got on base with a neat
drag bunt down the third base
line but Dennis King hit to short
stop, forcing out Rector.
Extra scoreboard padding for
the home club was obtained,
however, when Jerry Bartow s
flv to rieht center field bounded
for a three base hit and the
Medford thrower tallied on error
on the relay from the outfield.
First Medford run was in the
oocnnrl innine. Owings led oil
with a whack which bounced
the ball over the fence for an
automatic double. Droscher flied
nut to ripen center field and Ow-
ines went to third Dase aiier
the catch. Rector then duplicated
Droscher's deep fly and Owings
scored on the sacrifice.
Tn the fifth inning for beaitie
Mike White drew a base on balls
and went to second sack on an
error on an attempted pick-off.
Norm Shill's sacrifice bunt put
White on third and Leek fol
lowed with his homer over the
outer left barrier.
Seattle, which left 13 men on
bases during the evening, had
home team pitcher Bartow in
toueh situations. in at least five
of the innings in which the Wash-
ingtonians didn't score. The visit
ors had two men on and no outs
in the sixth inning and two on
and one out in the first, third,
seventh and ninth innings. His
own pitching and Medford field
ing helped him out of most of tne
difficulties.
In the ninth when Bartow s
arm getting stiff, with Shill and
George Kritzonis on third and
second bases on hits and a wild
pitch and with two out, Man
ager Roelandt called in Duane
Sides for mound relief. Sides
fanned Monty Geiger to end the
game. The second strike, called,
brought considerable squawk
from the Seattle batsman.
Bartow might have been able
to take care of Geiger but Roe
landt pointed out that the Wash
ington player had collected two
hits off the Medford tosser in
four trips to the plate and that
Geiger was an old college foe
of Bartow's and knew his pitch
ing. Bartow and catcher Roe
landt had fooled Geiger with
change up forcing him to ground
out in the seventh inning, but
it was decided to give him
"something different." The mov
was successful strategy for a vic
tory the Medford nine desper
ately wanted.
Despite tiring, Bartow was
bit more effective over the 8 23-
inning route than the combined
work of his two hill foes, Dave
Gray and Norm Popkin. The
Medford chucker yielded eight
hits and five bases on balls and
had 10 strikeouts. The Seattleites
also gave up eight hits. They
walked four and hit one batter
and had six strikeouts.
Leek hit two for four and
Geiger two for five for Seattle
and Owings two for three and
Roelandt and Bartow each two
for four for Medford.
Seattle put over runs Sunday
in every inning except the third
when Leek was caught trying
to stretch a twin-bagger into a
triple. Big inning was the fourth
when six runs crossed home on
only one hit, a double by Wayne
