The finals of the $25,000 tour ney originally scheduled for to day will be held on Monday with the third round to be held on Sunday. Play was stopped for an hour and 10 minutes Saturday before the round was called off with 45 scores already posted, nine of them by any of the leaders, cancelled. None of the leaders, first place Roberty de Vicenzo, Ar gentina, with a 36 hole total of 133, 11 under par, runner-up Billy Casper, Bonita, Calif., 135, or Paul Harney, Worcester, Mass., 136, or any others in the top dozen had started the play.

A fire-breathing Hollywood club moved to within three games of the leadership Friday Wenatchee Wins, Ems Lose Friday By UNITED PRESS Wenatchee's Chiefs took ad- vantage of early Tn-City pitch ing wildness and the double play Friday to take the series open er,' 9-5, arid stretch their North west League lead to two and a half games over runner-up Eu gene, 2-1 losers to Yakima. Elsewhere, Lewiston outlasted Salem, 9-8. The Braves were ahead 2-0 un til starter Jerry McClure blew up in the third and was replaced by Stan Hubert. Six Chiefs drew walks and singles by Chico Al varez and Roy Parker account ed for three more runs in the five-run inning. Wenatchee starter Gus Car michagl, who went the route for his fifth win in eight decisions, had a few wobbly moments, but !ach time the double play bailed Ihim out. Shortstop Joe Padillo initiated three of the paired outs. Yakima cashed three errors on one fly ball for their narrow decision over the Emeralds. Bear catcher Pete Gongola went all the way in the fourth when the rightfielder dropped a fly and throws to third and home went wild. Lewiston squeaked in when Jerry and Joe Jacobs walked and advanced on Dick Watson's sac rifice fly in the last of the ninth. Jerry scored on a wild pitch and Bruce Mcintosh's sin gle brought in Joe. Big blow of the night was Bronc catcher Ron Carlon's two on home run in the seventh. Gene3 Tanselli homered for Sa lem with none on in the fourth. Brooks Robinson Out of Danger Baltimore IW Rookie Brooks Robinson of the Baltimore Orioles was pronounced in "no danger" at Union Memorial Hos pital Saturday although 10 stitches had to be taken in his forehead after he was hit in the head by a pitch Friday night. The 20-year-old Robinson re mained in the hospital over night for obseravtion but doctors said he would be released shortly- The young third baseman suf fered a severe cut on the left side tf his forehead as a result of being hit by a ball thrown by Ned Garver of Kansas City in the fourth inning of the night cap of a twi-night twin bill. U. S. Tracksters Win In International Stockholm, Sweden dPI United States track and field stars won four more events here Friday giving them nine victor ies in the two-day international meet. Tom Courtney of Living ston, N. J. won the 800-meter event; Josh Culbreaih of Phila delphia won the 400-meter hurdles; Frank Hermann of Stanford U. won the 200-meter dash, and Rink Babka of South ern California won the discus throw. course record Friday with an eight-under-par 64 to move into first place by two strokes with a 36-hole total of 133, 11-under par. But in view of his- past per formances, his showing so far indicated he was the leading threat to win the 550,000 top prize in next wek's World tour nament on the same course. De Vicenzo's 133 total was only two strokes off the record of 131 set in 1947 by Ed Porky Oliver, when he tallied 66 and 65 on his first two Tounds. Oliver had a chance to dupli cate that feat this year with a first-round 66, but he took a 76 on his second round to fall nine strokes behind De Vincenzo. Thus Billy Casper Jr., Bonita Calif., second on opening day with a 67, held the runner-up spot with a 68 for 135, while Paul Harney, Worcester, Mass under par the 19th time in his last 23 rounds, took a 67 for 136. inning. That frame lasted a torturous 26 minutes, and by the time starter loser Bill Abernathie 10-2 was relieved by Bert Thiel, Hollywood had already put across five runs without giving up an out. Starter Fred Waters, who went the distance for the Stars, gave up five hits in handing San Francisco its fourth consecutive loss. The Seal's only tally came in the seventh when Harry Malmberg singled in Haywood Sullivan.

Sacramento also took both ends of a doubleheader from Port land, 7-0, and 7-2, while Los Angeles narrowly squeaked by Seattle 6-5. It was a said night for the Mounties also.

(W Pete Rad emacher doesn't shudder to think about what might happen to him when he climbs into the ring against heavyweight cham pion Floyd Patterson on Aug. 22. He just doesn't think about it, he says. Ratemacher, daring what no man before him. has done, ex pressed firm confidence Satur day that when he makes the long vault from the amateur ranks to a heavyweight title bout in his first pro venture he can take care of himself.- Rademacher has a fighter's pug face but he was born with it, he didn't acquire it. He doesn't show a trace of scar tis sue from his 79 amateur bouts. His ears are a shell-like pink that has never known the taint " of cauliflower. And Rademachsr, holding a bachelor of science degree from Washington State, College in arii mal husbandry, talks with logic, although it is not the kind that would make a dent in the leath ery state of mind of the fight game. Why is he making his big plunge? Loves To Fight "I had it in mind even before the Olympic win last winter," he said. "I am a mature man at 28 I am big and strong and I love to light. "I don't feel like going through the trials and tribulations of a long career. I might have done so at one time but then I got mar ried and the Army intervened. "I feel confident that I can stay in there with Patterson or any of the top 10 heavyweights. And if I didn't think I had a chance to beat him I would not be undertaking this thing." Until he began fighting in the Army, Rademacher s main offen sive effort was knocking down apples in his German-descended father's orchard in Washington's Yakima Valley. His main defense was playing defensive guard for Forrest Evashevski's Washington State football team. "And so far," he said, "foot ball is a lot tougher than any thing I've faced in the ring.

Brown and re placed by coach Danny Mur taugh at an early morning press conference. "I think for the present and future good of the Pittsburgh club that a change must be made," Brown said. . He said he would not make "any specific statement, now or later" concerning exactly what caused him to fire Bragan so suddenly. Only this week Bragan asked President Warren Giles of the National League to break up a team of umpires which Bragan said threw out players and man agers through whim more than circumstance. Bragan this week was fined $100 by Giles and warned that severe penalties might result un less he changed his policies. The fine was for coming back on the field to offer soft drinks to the umpires .after they had ejected him from the game. It was likely that Bragan's sense of humor had an effect uoon Brown's decision to oust him, arid it is equally likely that Brown might have received some suggestions from Giles about Bragan's future. Brown said Murtaugh would take over the seventh-place Na tional League club with the un derstanding "that this is just a temporary assignment for - the rest of the year and is in no way a committal for 1958." Pirate officials said coach Clyde Sukeforth first was offer ed the job but, knowing the choice was between him and Murtaugh, declined the offer,.
