Newspaper Page Texto EIGHT MEDfOBD (OBECOK) MAIL TRIBUNE Tuesday. July 23, 1957 Beavers Leave Cellar Rank li Win Over San Diego 4-3 On Frank Carswell Throw Portland W Portland won a baseball game Monday night. The Beaven- halted a ninth inning San Diego threat on a fine throw by Frank Carswell to win 4-3 and move out of the PCL cellar ahead of Sacra mento. The Beaven icored the win with the help of four double plays and fine relief pitching by Bob Anderson, who replaced starter Ray Bauer in the seventh after Al Jones doubled in two runs for the Padres to make the score 4-3. Preston Ward opened up with a double for the Padres in the ninth and advanced to third on an infield out. When Bob Len non flied to left field, Carswell made a perfect peg to catcher Ron Bottler who tagged Ward as he tried to score the tying run. The Beavers had grabbed an early lead by collecting three runs on five hits, including a double by Solly Drake, in the opening frame. One of the hits, a single by Casey Wise, struck first baseman Bob Di Pietro in the mouth and knocked out a tooth. Di Pietro left the game The Padres put their first n:n on the board in the bottom of the first inning when Dave Pope slammed out his 12th hom er of the year. Portland scored once in the fourth on a double by Billy De Mars, an infield out and an in field single. Bauer collected the win, his fourth this season against two losses. In other games Monday night Vancouver decided the course of its game with Sacramento in the first frame, slamming nine runs over the heads of the be wildered Solons. Two Triples In the deadly first, John Jor gensen and Kal Segrist tripled, and Joe Frazier and Len Greene let go with doubles. Segrist also hit the first Mountie homer of the game In the third with none on, and Frazier clouted another in the eighth, also with none on. Sacramento collected 15 hits, actually one more than the win ners, including Al Heist's two run homer in the seventh. The Beavers, now lording it in seventh place, also started early, pounding out three runs in the first frame and adding what turned out to be the clinch er in the fourth. Relief hurler Bob Anderson spelled the difference for Port land in the ninth by dousing a final attempt by San Diego to tie up the game. Bauer Wins Starter Ray Bauer, 4-2, was the winner. Dick Brodowski, 7-3, lost. Dave Pope homered for the Pads in the first frame the only four bagger, of the game. The Hollywood Stars, bound and determined to stay amongst the top three, allowed Los An geles only three hits off starting hurler Red Witt. It was Witt's 11th win against four losses, and he has hurled 37 23 innings without allowing an earned run Steve Bilko, the Los Angeles power man, was stopped cold. ending a hitting streak that last ed 14 consecutive games. The Angels did shine in the fielding department. They made their first triple play since 1453, putting out Spook Jacobs, Witt and Tony Bartirome. Tom LaSorda, 4-3, lost the contest.

BREAKING THE TAPE in 3:57.2 in fastest mile ever run is Derek Ibbotson, Yorkshire, in London. Trailing speedy Briton were three who broke four-minute mark. Former record, 3:58, was by John Landy, Australia. (International) PLC Reverses LA Scorer San Francisco UPl The Pa cific Coast league has overruled the Los Angeles scorer in the Vancouver-Los Angeles game of July 19. The scorer, John B. Old, had charged Mountie pitcher Irv Palica with the ioss rather than George Bamberger. The PCL re versed the decision. In that game the Angels came to bat in the eighth inning trail-1 ing 5-4. Vancouver hurler Sandy Consuegra gave up a single to Steve Bilko and was taken out by Manager Charley Metro. Bamberger came into to pitch, walked Bert Hamric and was lifted in favor of Palica. Jim Fridley forced Bilko at third, but pinch-hitter Bob Jenkins put the Angels ahead with a three run homer. Under baseball rule 10.18, Consuegra is charged with one run, the tying run, even though the runner he put on base was put out by a force play. The runner Bamberger put on base then becomes the winning run. Pplica could be charged with only one run, Jenkins'. Fanfare By DICK JEW ITT Mail Tribune Sports Editor Ed Bingham, ex-Medford high athlete who wound up a Uni versity of Oregon varsity basket ball and track career this spring, says he's due to enter the Air Force in October as the result of his reserve officer training. Bing ham is currently working for Southern Oregon Sales here. He reported that he has a five-year tour if he makes the grade in flight training and a three-year hitch if he doesn't. Ed has aims of resuming work with the javelin when his Air Force time permits. He was just coming into his own with the spear when the collegiate season ended this spring, getting a dis tance of 240 feet in practice. KNOCKED OUT Five Medford Cheney Studs were hit by throws by Glen dale Pitcher Dwayne Miller Sunday with Eldon Francis a bean ball victim. But it didn't lake actual game conditions for Talent's Ray Weinhold to Studs Travel For Drain Encounter Medford Cheney Studs step outside the Rogue Valley Base ball league this Wednesday and travel to play the independent Drain Black Sox at Drain. The game was originally set for Medford but dates were switched at the request of the Sox. Drain is to come here on Aug. 14. Medford has met the strong Black Sox there times already this season, winning two of the games. The Studs, leading in the RVL without a loss, tackle Cave Junction, second place with two setbacks, here next Sunday. Other loop scuffles that day are Butte Falls at Grants Pass and Camp White at Glendale. A victory for the Cheney nine Sunday would assure it of no worse than a tie for top spot in the regular season. Iron Curtain To Get Visit By Brundage Washington (W Avery Brun dage, who said he "might have to resign" as President of the In ternational Olympic Committee if the State Department barred him from going behind the Iron Curtain, has been given permis sion to visit Bulgaria. A state department spokes man said the department now finds that Brundage's attendance at an IOC meeting in Sofia in September "is in the interest of our foreign policy." When Brundage's first applica tion for travel permission was rejected, he said he might have to quit his IOC job if the ban "prevents me from fulfilling my office." Chain Saw Firm, NG To Play Wednesday M and W Chain Saw opposes National Guard Wednesday in a 7:30 p.m. single game in the Jackson County Softball as sociation. The tussle will be at Memorial field. Camp White. Emeralds Lose 3-2 To Black Sox Monday Eugene API The Eugene Em eralds of the Northwest league dropped a 3-2 decision to the Drain Black Sox, a semi-pro team, here Monday night in 10 innings. Stan Dmochowsky held the Emeralds to seven hits and 'fanned six in notching the win. be knocked out by a bean ball. A tots by Jim McAbee, while he was warming up Pitcher Mark Fitch before the Butte Falls game, struck Weinhold on the head and knocked him out. Weinhold was sitting in the dugout at the time. FIRE DETRACTS A fire conflicted with the in terests of a couple of Cave Junction Outlaw officials during their game with the Grants Pass Merchants on Sunday, we are told. The alarm sounded and the two men, apparently volunteer firement, jumped up and ran across the field. PRO POSSIBILITIES Professional Eugene Emer alds of the Northwest league have indicated an interest in Ron Owings, shortstop of the Medford Cheny Studs baseball nine, according to remarks of Dick Strite, Eugene Register Guard in his Highclimber col umn. Owings is a catcher as well as an infielder. The Ems, Strite remarks can use a sec ond catcher, especially a rookie. Ron is a product of Klamath Falls Union High school. He has played semi pro ball at Klamath Falls as well as college ball for South ern Oregon. ROELANDT RATED HIGH Strite has some interesting in formation on Ron Bowen, the Drain Blat; Sox outfielder, who came up with crucial homers in each of the three games the Sox have played against the Studs this season. Bowen is a form3r Franklin high of Portland team mate of Frank Roelandt, Studs manager, and played on the Portland fire department team in 1943 with John Kovenz, Studs outfielder and Medford high head baseball coach. The Eugene writer says Bowen still claims that Roelandt was the best catching prospect he has ever seen. Bowen, who has play ed considerable minor league ball, was manager of Dickinson in the Mandan league a few years back when Roelandt was playing for Williston, N.D. OUTLAWS DEFEND . Somehow we got off the track and have been calling Glendale the defending champ in the Rogue Valley Baseball league. 'Taint so. It's Cave Junction. Glendale led most of the 195E season but was tied with the Outlaws in the final regular season standings. Cave Junction then defeated the Loggers in a extra regular season game and followed that with a victory over - Glendale in the play-off finals. Jimmy Allen Midget Winner Jimmy Allen won, the main event and Dana Carder set a track time trial record of 10:35 Sunday in quarter midget auto races at Jackson Hot springs. Eddie McCoy took the semi main and the six-weeks sports manship trophy. Mike Myers won the trophy dash in competition with Allen and Janice Lemley. Allen held the lead until spinning out on the last lap. Teresa and Jimmy Allen, and Bobby Bruce won heat races. Teresa was second to Jimmy in the Main. A Portland car, with Bobbie McLoud the driver, won the final heat. . Rams, Cards Open Camps Next Week Portland (Special) Train ing camps will be in operation next week for the Los Angeles Rams and Chicago Caidinals, the two professional football teams which clash here at Mult nomah stadium Saturday, night, August 31. A new rule adopted this year by the National Football league limits the number of players in camp to 60 and requires all teams to wait until the last week of July before opening camp. The Rams will train at their familiar site in Redlands, Calif., while the Cardinals will report at Lake Forest, 111. The teams will have about three weeks to get ready for their opening pre-season games. Both teams open the cam paign on Friday night, Aug. 16, the Cards meeting the Green Bay Packers in the Orange Bowl at Miami and the Rams playing the Washington Redskins in the annual Times charity games in Los Angeles. The following week the Cardi nals play the Packers again in Austin, Tex., and then head for Oregon where they will set up training headquarters at Pacific university in Forest Grove. They will remain there following the Portland game for a week of drills. Donnybrook The Rams play the New York Giants in their second game be fore meeting the Cards in what has become one of the real donnybrooks of the season for both clubs. Thus, both teams will have two games under their belts by the time they face off in Port land, which will afford them a good chance to test their rookies against league opposition. The Cardinals are anxious to take a good look at two rookie quarterback prospects, Paul Lar son of California and Dave Leg gett of Ohio State. Coach Ray Richards believes and few observers will dispute him that if he can come up with cap able quarterback his team will win the league championship. The Rams are eagerly await ing the test of rookies Jon Ar nett of UCS and Del Shofner of Baylor, hailed as two of the brightest prospects they've ever had. Tickets for the game between the Rams and- Cardinals are available by mail through Ore gon Sports attractions in the Executive building, with a good supply of reserved seats still up for grabs. Regalado Leads Coast Hitting San Francisco (W Rudy Re galado of the San Diego Padres is leading the Pacific Coast league in hitting with a .358 average, according to statistics released today and including games of Sunday, July 21.

Atlantic Tie-Up Dropped By Orange Bowl Officials By STAN TAIT United Press Sports Writer Miami on Officials of the Orange Bowl football game dis closed today that pressure from television networks for more at tractive games prompted them ml. neA lUeio-TMpmn NEW MILE MARK Derek Ibbotson, 24, a British Royal Air Force private, breaks the tape at White City Stadi um in London to set a new record of three minutes, 57.2 seconds for the mile run. Three other runners in the race also broke the four minute mile. to drop their bowl tie-up with the Atlantic Coast Conference. The Bowl Committee an nounced Monday it has renewed its bowl agreement with the Big Eight (the old Big Seven) from 1959 through 1961. But a similar pact with the ACC will be dropped after the game next Jan. 1. The committee also disclosed a clause in the new pact that might permit perennial power Oklahoma to appear in the bowl as often as three times in the next four years. The committee had been under strong local pressure to end the "closed shop" selection of teams and open the door for local fav orites Miami, Florida, and Flor ida State. But then the pressure came, too, from the television outlets. The Sooners are eligible to re turn next year under an old agreement. In the new pact, the bowl got the Big Eight to agree to permit the conference champ to repeat again in 1959 because "it is the silver anhiversary of the bowl." r Builders Supply QUALITY BLOCKS Bricks, Flues, Drain Tile 727 W.
