TEN MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE ankees By OSCAR FRALEY Milwaukee OPi Don Larsen, walked out of the bull-pen shadows yesterday to pitch sev en and one-third relaxed relief innings as the New York Yan kees murdered the Milwaukee Braves, 12-3, in the third game. The Yankees, jumping in to a two-to-one game lead before a disappointed partisan Braves' crowd of 45,804, turned their power loose on six Milwaukee pitchers in a nine-hit attack sparked by Tony Kubek's two home runs and one out-of-the-park blast by Mickey Mantle. Hank Aaron, the National league home run champion, chip ped in with one for the Braves. And Johnny Logan's leadoff single in the fifth stopped Lar sen after he had retired seven Milwaukee W Tom Sturd ivanl. the New York Yankee's leading winner with a 16-6 record during the American League season, was named to pitch today's fourth World Series game while the Milwau- . kee Braves will come back with ace southpaw Spahn. Sturdivanl, a knuckleballer, won the fourth game of the 1956 series for the Yankees. Spahn. 21-11 during the Na tional League season, was beaten, 3-1. in the opening game of this series. He had a previous series record of 1-1 in the 1946 classic. men in a row to run his string of consecutive World Series outs to 34 added to the 27 he set down in his no-hit, no-run game against the Dodgers last year. But this was small consola tion to the Braves' rooters seeing the first World Series game in Milwaukee's baseball history. They squirmed as the Braves filled the bases four times and got only one run out of it ,and howled dismally as 14 stranded Milwaukee baserun ners tied a Series record set 47 years ago by the Chicago Cubs. Buhl Lasts 2-3 Inning Loser Bob Zuhl lasted only two-thirds of an inning and five hurlers who followed him to the mound for Milwaukee furth er flustered their fans by issuing a total of 11 walks for another unwanted record. It tied a mark set by the Yankees last Oct. 5 against Brooklyn. Bob Turley, who lasted only one and two-thirds innings as the Yankee starter, issued four of the eight walks given to Mil waukee for a two-team total of 19 which broke by three the record set in 1936 by the Yan kees and the Giants. So it in no way could be classed as a pitcher's battle, with the Braves getting eight hits and Larsen giving up five of them as he failed to match that perfect pace of a year ago. Yet he moved along comfortably and without too much strain in posting his victory. Kubek started the Yankees off in the first inning when with one away he pumped a home run over the right field fence at the 355 foot mark. That keynoted a three-run in ning which routed Buhl and sent the Yanks off, shaking Buhl so much that he walked Mantle and Yogi Berra in order. Mick ey dancing off second base, slipped and Buhl fired to Red Schoendienst covering second. Mantle slid in under the throw, Schoendienst falling atop him, and the ball rolled into center field Schoendienst laid on Mantle, pinning him to the ground, while Aaron sped in from center to recover Buhl's error. But Berra, hung up between first and sec ond waiting for Mantle to rise tand go, yelled Mickey to his feet and Mantle finally dashed on to third while Yogi slid, head first, into second. Mantle scored when Gil Mc Dougald lifted a long fly to cen ter. Yogi holding second. Harry Simpson then singled over sec ond,' scoring Yogi, and that was all for Buhl. He was replaced by Juan Pizarro, a 19-year-old Puerto Rican, who retired the side. Milwaukee, with its fans screaming madly, filled the bases in both the first and second in nings but could get only one run out of it. That came in the second inning when they got rid of Turley and drew Larsen. Turley Out Turley took the long walk to the showers when he opened the second by walking Bob Hazle and then yielded a single to Del Rice which sent Hazle to sec ond. With Schoendienst up, Tur ley heaved a wild pitch into the dirt on which Hazle went to third and Rice held at first. Schoendienst singled to right which scored Hazle and sent Rice to second. Turey sent Logan down on a called third strike but then fill ' ed the bases by walking Math ews and took a walk himself to the showers. The crowd boo ed as Stengel called in Larsen and he ended it by getting Aaron to fly to Bauer. The Yankees- padded their edge to 5 to 1 with two more in the third. Mantle singled to center and took third as Yogi singled' to right. McDougald grounded to third. Ed Mathews running down Mantle as Berra took second ana jyiauouseiiu w Over eavers acks Shine in 22-1 WWW 'Bush League To Big Milwaukee Welcome Milwaukee (IP) Veteran outfielder Andy Pafko. the Braves' most experienced World Series player, took issue today with the New York Yankees charge that the city is "bush league." The aging right fielder said "It's an awful thing" to call Milwaukee "bush league," an swering back a statement by a husky -Yankee who tagged ; the city label as he, his teammates and manager Casey Stengel turned a cold shoulder to a civic reception. "After all," said Pafko, "Mil waukee is a nice town and has shown that it's big league by drawing at least two million peo ple in four of five years." "That's more than the Yan kees have done," he said. Pafko said "Milwaukee want ed to welcome the Yankees and safe at first. Elston Howard bat ted for Simpson and drew a bases-filling walk. Young Jer ry Lumpe came through with a Berra and McDougald and mov ed Howard to third. But Gene Conley came on to replace Piz arro and retire the side without further damage. New York moved in front, 7 to 1, in the fourth when Kubek singled and Mantle powdered his 400 foot blast over the right center field wall and into the Milwaukee bull pen. It was the Mick's ninth world series homer and his first round-tripper since Aug. 30. Milwaukee got those two runs back in the fifth, to trail 7 to 3, when Logan opened with the single whiche nded Larsen's per fect World Series pitching at 34 consecutive outs. Then, after Mathews flied out Aaron con nected for a two-run blast over the right field fence. The Braves filled the bases for the third time in the sixth when, with two out Schoendienst and Logan delivered back to back singles and Ma,thews walk ed. But Larsen escaped damage as Aaron grounded out. The Yankees broke it wide open m tne seventn on bod Trowbridge with five big runs which put them out in front 12 to 3 and muzzled the miserable Milwaukee rooters. McDougald led off with a walk and stole second. Trowbridge got the next two men out but then walked both Gerry Coleman and Larsen to fill the bases. Bauer singled to center to drive home McDougald and Coleman and then three more runs paraded across the plate as Kubek blasted his second home run of the game over the right field fence. The Braves loaded the bases for the fourth time in the ninth but Larsen shut them off. 3rd World Series Game At Milwaukee.

Stengel Refuses Albert Davis, assistant secre tary to Mayor Frank Zeidler, was at the Milwaukee Road sta tion along with a crowd of sev eral hundred to greet the eastern team when it arrived here Fri day to work out at County Sta dium. The Yankees bundled from the train to three waiting buses without stopping to give or take a word. Milwaukee Judge Rob ert Cannon, a personal friend of Stengel's asked him to leave his bus and acknowledge the re ception. The manager refused and Cannon boarded the bus with several newsmen. Then a husky Yankee began hustling the newsmen off the bus and said the whole thing "is strictly bush league." "Gentlemen," Davis called out as the buses pulled away, "whether you know it or not, you've been welcomed to Mil waukee."

(IP) Half backs Joe Francis and Earnel Durden accounted for three touchdowns Saturday in leading Oregon State to a 22-13 victory over Northwestern. The Oregon State triumph, their third straight of the -campaign, came before 34,5000 fans who filled Dyche stadium to watch the first gridiron clash between the two schools. The issue was seldom in doubt as the fleet duo of Francis and Durden began operating off the single wing and split-T forma tions in the first period and collaborated for two touch downs. They added a third score in the final period. Quarterback Ted Searle inserted a field goal in the second period and kicked the extra point ofter touchdown. The Beavers stopped a North western drive with six minutes to go in the first period and put across their first touchdown. Marching from its own 30 on a series of ground plays and a 16-yard pass from Francis to Bob DeGrant Oregon State mov ed the ball to the Wildcats' 38. Francis tossed a pass to Durden who caught it on the 10 and scampered untouched into the end zone. Three minutes later another drive put the ball on the North western 10, and Francis skirted the Wildcat right flank for a second touchdown. Searle for the second time missed the try for the extra point but made up for it when he booted a sec ond period field goal from the 21 after the Wildcat defense stif fened. The Beavers iced the game with eight minutes remaining when Durden took the ball on a reverse at the Wildcat 15-yard line and sprinted into the end zone. Searle's third attempt to make the extra point was good. Northwestern scored in the second period after failing on four drives to move the ball past the Beaver 20.
