Vancouver Mounfies Gain Slightly; Must Win Six Remaining By JIM HEALY United Press Sports Writer After nearly two weeks on a maddening treadmill, the second place Vancouver Mounties have finally gained a crucial half game on the San Francisco Seals. Playing the only single Pa cific Coast league game on the schedule Tuesday night, the St. Mary's Hampered By Injuries St. Mary's high football turn has swelled to 30 aspirants but the Crusaders could be a bit crippled for their opening game here Friday night against Illinois Valley. Coach Bill McKibbin reported Jerry Flakus, big end, out with a sprained back, another letter man, George Lucas, fullback, lamed with a badly bruised thigh and Paul Smith a right half, suf fering from an ankle sprain. The mentor said the rest of his players are going full steam under his direction and that of Neil Murphy, line coach. The Crusaders play the Cave Junction club on the Medford Senior High field in the first prep fray of the season here. It may be the only non-loop game for St. Mary's this year. How ever, a game is set against Eagle Point here on Nov 9 if neither team is in state play-offs. This season find3 SM with its fullest 11-man grid slate. The Crusaders have seven district games. The opener in the-B cir cuit will be on Sept. 20 at Tal ent. Other clubs in the district are Merrill, Sacred Heart of Klamath Falls, Jacksonville, Ma lin, Bonanza and Chiloquin. SM won the Jackson county title last year but there is no such circuit in football this season since Jacksonville and Talent are the only other schools play ing the 11-man sport in the county. Of all adult pedestrians killed in motor vehicle accidents about 23 per cent had been drinking or were drunk.

BIG SUPPLY Lawn & Garden Equipment Center Ph. SP 3-3160 1948 N. Pae. Hwy. Mounties came from behind to whip last place Portland, 4-2, while the Seals split with Lo3 Angeles, trouncing the Angels 5-3 in the opener, then getting trounced themselves, 3-2. Elsewhere, San foiego nailed Sacramento, 5-3, in the opener, and went down in the nightcap, 3-2 while Hollywood and Seattle split with identical 2-0 scores, Seattle winning the first contest and the Stars the nightcap. It was the sixth straight win for the Mounties. But in order to even tie for the pennant, they have to win all six remaining games, assuming San Francisco loses three. Portland went ahead in the fourth with two runs when Bob Borkowski scored on a single by Luis Marquez and Marquez tal lied on another single, this-time by Ed Winceniak. But the fight ing Mounties snapped back with all four of their tallies in the same frame to complete the scor ing and win. Erv Palica, 15-12, started and won. The opener between San Fran cisco and the Angels was won in the eighth frame of a scheduled seven inning game. Bill Renna accounted for the tie breaker with a two-run homer which Los Angeles was unable to top. In the second, George Anderson busted a 2-2 tie by singling in the winning run in the bottom of the ninth. San Diego won its half of the doubleheader with a four run splurge in the third frame which gave it too great a lead for the Solons to overcome, despite a two-run homer by Gary Rushing in the fourth. The second game was almost the same thing in re verse. Sacramento tallied three runs in the third while winner Roger Bowman (6-11) kept the Pads to five hits. In Seattle, both teams suffer ed shutouts, the Stars on six hits by Larry Jansen in the first, and Seattle on five hits given up by Bob Garber in the finale. The only homer came in the first contest when Hal Bevan slammed one in the fourth with none on. The Stars' win broke a six game losing streak and en abled them to fend off up-and-coming Seattle which is fighting to'gain Hollywood's third place spot.
