ivision of American League

Typographic error, my eye!
That's really the Baltimore
Orioles right up there in the
first division today, and it's the
first time they have ever been
that high this late in the season
since they entered the Ameri
can league.
The amazing Orioles reached
the lofty region of fourth place
Thursday night by sweeping a
twi-night double-header from
the fading Indians by the scores
of 5-4 and 5-4 (no typo, either,
the first going 11 innings.
Pilot Paul Richards, who
makes the tje moves no other
manager will dare, gave a Hou-dini-like
exhibition in an all-out
effort to crash the first division.
O He jornked starter Ray Moore
in the seventh inning of the
first game even though the
score was tied and he had two
strikes on Roger Maris. Ken
Lehman completed the strikeout
but he nedded help from George
Zuverink in the last of the 11th
after the Orioles had scored two
runs in the top of the frame on
singles by Gus Triandos and Jim
Busby.
Zuverink Appears Twice
Then, in the nightcap, Rich
ards pulled out Bill Wight in
the third inning even though
Baltimore had built a 5-0 lead
off Bob Lemon. He again called
in Zuverink, who gained his
eighth victory, and when the
hard-working Zuverink weak
ened in the eighth, Richards led
with his ace, Billy Loes.
All that masterminding paid
off in theN Orioles' 14th victory
in their last 20 games. They are
now a half-game ahead of both
i Cleveland and Detroit, and only
three games behind the third
place Red Sox. who defeated the
i Tigers Thursday, 9-7. The Yan
kees padded their league lead
;to 3'.2 games when Mickey
Mantle's 23rd home run in the
jllth inning produced a 3-2
triumph over Kansas City, and
i Washington rallied for two runs
in the ninth to beat the second
place White Sox, 6-5.
The Phillies took over second
'place in the National league by
capturing a twi-night twin bill
'from the Cubs, winning the 11
i inning opener, 1-0, and the
finale, 3-1. The Giants defeated
the Cardinals, 1-0; Brooklyn
edged Cincinnati. 5-4, in a game
marked by fist fights, and Mil
waukee beat Pittsburgh, 7-2.
The Dodgers came from be
hind to defeat the Redlegs when
Duke Snider hit his second home
run of the game with one on in
the seventh inning off Tom
Acker.
Snider's second homer came
shortly after a flare up between
Cincy pitcher Raul Sanchez and
Dodger infielder Junior Gilliam
that precipitated an even livelier
fist fight between Charley Neal
and Don Hoak. The whole fuss
started when Gilliam felt San
chez had thrown a pitch too
close to him.

Beavers Drop 13th;
Pads Look at Second
Br JIM HEALY
United Prs Sports Writer
The Portland " Beavers now
have a 13 game streak all
losses. And San Diego, which
handed the Beavers their last
three, is looking with green
eyes at the suddenly shaky num
ber two spot held by Vancouver.
The Pads roughed up Port
land, 10-4, Thursday night while
Sacramento handed the Moun-
Avery Pans
U.S. State
Department
Santa Barbara, Calif. rtfl
Avery Brundage, president of
the International Olympic com
mittee, declared today the
United States "might as well re
tire from all Olympic affairs"
if the U.S. State department
keeps athletes or their repre
sentatives from visiting certain
countries.
" At the same time, he said he
believed the committee would
take the scheduled winter games
away from Squaw Valley, Calif.,
unless all countries, including
Bulgaria-Arid Red China, are
permitted to send delegations to
the Northern California meet.
Brundage made the state
ments when questioned concern
ing speculation on whether he
might be forced to quit as the
first American elected president
of the International Olympic
committee in event the State de
partment travel ban regarding
Iron Curtain countries prevents
his attending the committee's
annual meeting set for Septem
ber in Bulgaria.
No Answer
He said he recently requested
State department permission to
attend the meeting but that it
was too early to have received
an answer.
He said if he was denied per
mission, "the committee might
not want to have a president
who couldn't operate and take
care of his responsibilities and
duties."
"'I just got back from Europe
and every newspaper there
wanted to know whether I
would be permitted to attend
the Bulgaria meeting." he said.
"There have been many rumors
that U.S. citizens would not be
permitted to go since our pass
ports are not valid in Bulgaria."

tournament Thursday- with a 4

ties a 5-3 loss. This combination
put San Diego within a half a
game of second place Vancou
ver.
The Pads got down- to busi
ness early, banging out seven
runs in the first three innings,
one of which was a two run
homer by Ed Gasque, the mac
who pitched and won.
San Diego added three more
runs in the"" seventh frame for
good measure on two singles
and a double by Preston Ward,
who incidentally homered in the
third with none on. t
Ed Mickelson and Frank Cars
well kept Portland in the game
in the first inning with two
runs. In the seventh, with the
game pretty well decided, Mick
elson doubled in two runs in a
last futile try.
Solons Rolling
Sacramento humbled Vancou
ver for the second straight time,
behind the 10 hit left hand pitch
ing of Marshall Bridges. Former
Mbuntie Jim Westlake led the
Solon attack with a double, two
singles and a walk. It was steady
going for the California squad
with two runs in the first, two
in the third and a one run
clincher in the fourth.
In other games around the
loop, Hollywood downed San
Francisco which claims the
best batters in the league 4-1,
in a day game, and Los Angeles
whipped Seattle 6-3 in the final

No-Hitters
In Pee Wee
Loop Frays
Mike Barnes of the Medford
Tigers and Louis Alvarez of
Central Point pitched no hit vic
tories yesterday as their teams
chalked up identical 5 to 0
scores against their adversaries.
The Tigers defeated their fel
low Medfordites, the Wildcats,
and Central Point won from
Eagle Point.
Barnes missed a perfect game
by issuing a walk to the last
man he would have faced had
he retired that batter. Only the
one player got on base against
him. He struck out seven bat
ters. Alvarez whiffed 11 and
walked two.
Glines, the Wildcat hurler,
yielded just three hits, one a
double by Bandy. He had three
strikeouts and gave five bases
on balls. CP had the benefit of
five hits and six walks off Eagle
tossers and of six EP miscues. i
The Tigers kept their unbeat
en leadership and Central Point
retained hold on second place.
