8 MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Oregon, Wednesday, April 30, 1938 Pirates Mab Fourth Graves Take Over By FRED DOWN XJniled Press Sports Wriier The Pittsburgh Pirates are off and running like contend ers and the word is out that this time it may not be a false alarm. The Pirates matched the season's longest National league winning streak when they beat the Los Angeles Dodgers, 7-1, Tuesday night for their fourth straight vic tory. The league's worst road team last season when they had a 26-51 record away from home, they've won five of seven on foreign soil this year. Red Raiders Score Sixth Straight League Triumph Ashland - Southern Ore gon college continued to look like the New York Yankees of the Oregon Collegiate con ference by blasting out a 15-2 victory over Oregon Tech in a baseball game here yester day. .The win was the Red Raid ers' sixth straight in confer ence play, keeping them on top of the standings with a perfect record. Raider hurler Jim Eggers making his first start of the year after being bothered by a sprained ankle held the Owls of OTI in check for six innings without giving up a Yank Quints In Russia Vie in Rain Tiflis, U. S. S. R. 0P The touring United States basket ball teams, impressed by the reception they received in this southern Soviet City, will fly back to Moscow today to wit ness the May Day parade. Following their one - day stopover in the Russian capi tal, the Yanks will travel to Leningrad, where they will conclude their tour by play ing three more exhibition games. . More than 25,000 persons braved a driving rainstorm Tuesday night to watch the U. S. men's team whip the Georgian national team, 59 41, for its fourth straight vic tory in Russia. The U. S. wom en turned back the champions of Estonia, 43-34, for their sec ond victory in four games. , Both games Tuesday were staged on the rain-soaked boards of the open-air Dinamo stadium. The Americans found It almost impossible to main tain their balance on the slip pery floor but took the ex perience in good spirits. Whenever one of the Yanks fell to the floor, teammates on the sidelines would shout "safe at third" or other base ball terms. Burdy Alderson of Bartles ville, Okla., paced the U. S. men to victory by totaling 18 points. Sandy Fiete of Garna villa, Iowa, led the women with 14. Roseburg Man Reno Big Gun Reno IW Charley Collins, a 22-yard handicapper from Roseburg, re., was the big gun Tuesday in the preliminary of the $17,500 Golden West Grand American, the nation's richest trap shoot. Collins scored 100 straight In the morning singles and then fired 98 in the afternoon round. His perfect morning record of 100 straight was equaled by many including Orley Mil ligan, Roseburg, Ore.; Gor don Miller, Drain, Ore., and B. Hutchinson, The Dalles, Ore. Larry Maurer Keeps Leadership In Southern Oregon Swatting Ashland Larry Maurer continued to lead the South ern Oregon college batting sta tistics with a .415 batting aver age and 16 runs batted ip. He also has scored the most runs, 22. Teamwise the Red Raiders are leading the Oregon Col legiate conference standings with a commanding 5-0 record.

Bob Friend, who slumped to a 14-18 record last season, turned in his third straight win with a four-hitter, and Frank Thomas sparked the Pirates' 11-hit assault with a homer and two singles. A crowd of 19,778 raised Los Angles' home attendance for 10 dates to 397,379. Pitchers also starred in three of the other four games played Tuesday as rain again marred the big league base ball schedule. Milwaukee Takes Over First Warren S p a h n scattered nine hits and drove in three runs as the Milwuakee took hit. The Owls opened up in the seventh on Eggers and scored two runs on three hits. Jim Cox delivered the run produc ing blow with a bases loaded single. Big Eighth The Raiders picked up two in- the fourth, one in the fifth, two in the seventh and 10 big runs more in the fateful eighth against the Owls. In the big eighth inning the Raiders loaded the bases with nobody out on a walk, error, and single by Dave D'Olivo. Willie Jones hit into a field er's choice which nabbed a runner at the plate but still left the bases loaded and the Owl chucker still in trouble. Jim McAbee drew a walk to force in a run and Larry Maurer grbunded out to the first baseman which produced another run, the second. Ron Maurer came through next with a single which drove across two more tallies. In the meantime the Owls had changed pitchers. D'Olivo Homers Eldon Francis followed with a single to move Maurer to third and Al Kimura scored both runners on a triple to right. Two pitches later Ki mura stole home to add to the confusion of the Owls. Things did riot stop here, by any means, with nine Raider hitters having been to the plate. Jim Dietz walked, followed by Gordie Thoreson who also drew a pass to put runners on first and third after Dietz had stolen two bases. D'Olivo, the next hitter, who had been sent in as a relief pitcher for Eggers in the top of the eighth, came to the plate looking for his sec ond hit of the inning. He found it witii a home run to right field which cleared the bases for fhree runs. Raiders Get Rest i Things kept moving when Jones and McAbee singled but Jones was cut down at the plate for the third out of the inning on an attempted steal. Eggers was credited with the win in striking out eight and walking only three. D'Ol ivo, in relief, struck out four, three of whom were the first three men in the ninth in ning without giving up a walk. The league leading Red Raiders now have a week and one half of rest before they meet Portland State in Port land for a three game series May 9 and 10.

The Philadelphia Phillies beat the San Francisco Giants, 7-4, in the other game. Two years ago the Pirates astounded the baseball world when they popped up in first place in early June but by season's end their fans had that old seventh-place disillu sionment. But baseball ex perts insist the team Danny Murtaugh has put together this season won't fall apart and could even wind up in the first division. The odd part, is that the Pi rates are winning without much assistance from slugger Ted Kluszewski the player Murtaugh described as "the key to our entire club.", Ted went hitless again Tuesday but Thomas had ample sup port from Robert Clemente, whose two hits raised his average to .413, and Hank Folies who knocked in two runs with three hits. Spahn was virtually the whole show in the Braves' eighth win in 12 games, con tributing hits to three scoring innings and going the route for the third straight time. Cub outfielder Lee Walls hit his sixth and seventh homers and Ed Mathews hit No. 6 for the world champions. Purkey Gains Victory Purkey, acquired from the Pirates during the winter, yielded 10 Cardinal 'hits but gained his third victory when Gus Bell broke a 2-2 tie with a three-run homer off Vine gar Bend Mizell in the eighth. Mizell had retired two batters after Pete Whisenant's inning opening single but then pur posely walked Don Hoak to pitch to Bell, who was batting .206. Stan Musial went 3-for-4 to raise his average to .551 and Gene Green homered for the Cardinals. Johnny Temple ran his hitting streak to 10 games for Cincinnati and also hit his first homer since 1956. Shantz' steady pitching and the homer-hitting of : Bill Skowron and Yogi Berra en abled the Yankees to make it six in a row in their home park. Shantz carried a shutout into the ninth as he won his second game. Skowron knock ed in three runs with a pair of early homers off Paul Foy tack and Berra homered off Bob Shaw in the seventh. Yankee pitchers have now allowed three runs and 12 hits in their last three games. Dave Philley clouted a homer, double and single as the Phillies down the Giants before, only 6,801 at San Francisco. Curt Simmons was tagged for 12 San Francisco hits in seven innings but got credit for the victory, his first. Willie Mays had a triple and a single and Hank Sauer hit his seventh homer for the Giants. LIXESCORES: American League .,,. Detroit 000 000 0011 8 0 New York .. 012 100 lOx 5 13 0 Foytack.

(IP) Because he did such an expert job of piloting Calumet Farm's Tim Tarn through a heavy traffic jam in the Derby" Trial Stakes, Ismael (Milo) Valenzuela will be back aboard the Calumet farm colt in Saturday's rose run. Valenzuela, filling in for in jured Bill Hartack, twice steered Tim Tarn out of trouble when the colt was forced into "blind switches" and booted the son of Tom Fool to a neck triumph over Main Chance Farm's Eb,ony Pearl in Tuesday's one-mile trial. That ride "sold" Valenzuela to Calumet trainer Jimmy Jones, who announced the lit tle Mexican from McNary, Tex., would be on Tim Tarn's back again when the Derby field parades to the post Sat urday. While Jones was pleased with Valenzuela's ride and Tim Tarn's performance, he was enraged at jockey Johnny Heckmann, whom he claimed caused all the interference in the trial. Good Sport Ceases "Heckmann hurt us at Keeneland and again in the Trial. It ceases to be good race riding when he pulls that stuff repeatedly," Jones said shortly after the race. "If he does it again Satur day he will have to answer to me," he added. Heckmann rode Claiborne Farm's Nadir against Tim Tarn in a seven furlong allow ance race at Keeneland won by Tim Tam in track record time as well as in the Trial. He placed Nadir outside Tim Tam in the Trial and pinned him against the rail, forcing Tim Tam into two pockets. Finally Tim Tam found racing room, moved into contention in the stretch, where he was slightly both ered by another horse, and then bounded into lead right at the wire. The Trial failed to elimin ate many horses from the probable Derby field. Be tween 16 and 19 are expected to start. Ebony Pearl ran so well Mrs. Elizabeth Graham of Main Chance Farm decided to start him along with her Jewel's Reward and Jet's Alibi. Arcaro On Jewel's Reward Eddie Arcaro will ride Jew el's Reward in the Derby while Manny Ycaza, aboard Ebony Pearl in the Trial, switches to Jet's Alibi in the MULTIPLE 3-4221 niL DODD Derby Trial rose run. Mrs. Graham hopes to get Dave Erb as jockey for Ebony Pearl. C. V. Whitney's Flamingo was third in the Trial and def initely will start Saturday, trainer Syl Veitch said. Gor don Glisson rides. Nadir, who continued after the finish of the trial to work out a mile and one-eighth in 1:54 3-5, also is expected back along with Mr. and Mrs. George Lewis' Martins Rullah, who finished seventh. Also expected to start are Silky Sullivan, the bright red chestnut geared for delayed action running, Belleau Chief, Benedicto, Chance It Tony, Gone Fishing, Lincoln Road, Noureddin, Red Hot Pistol and Warren G. If the track is fast A Dragon Killer will join them. Silky Sullivan just galloped around Churchill Downs Tuesday and handled 'the muddy track with no trouble. "He doesn't have to vcarry his race track around with him," said trainer Reggie Cor nell. "He can run all day, wet or dry." . The track dried slowly all day Tuesday and was "slow" for the trial. No additional rain was forecast but the weather turned cool during the night. Webfoots Slate San Jose State Eugene OP) The Ore gon Webfoots filled up their 1959 football schedule Tues day with the signing of San Jose state for on October 10 contest. Athletic Director Leo Hr ris said the Spartan game completes a 10-game slate for the Ducks, four on the road and six at home. Penn State, a perennial power on Eastern gridirons, has signed' a two-game series with Oregon for 1963 and 1964. Walls, Sauer Lead in Homers New York .Jl The Chi cago Cubs' Lee Walls and the San Francisco Giants' Hank Sauer are the early home run sensations of the major leagues. Walls, who hit only six last season, and Sauer, who hit 26, each has seven so far this year. Walls hit two Tues day while Sauer hit one. LIFT 00 Rule Move To Permit Club Into Chicago (IT) The Nation al League could transfer a franchise back to New York immediately upon approval by Baseball Commissioner Ford Frick under a new rules change recommended for ac tion at the next major league joint meeting. The recommendation was made by the major league's Don Nelson, Tony Softli Tops in WW University of Oregon, Eu gene Two new leaders among the top track and field performers in the Northern Division popped up this week and another half dozen marks were improved as the teams again battled bad weather. Washington's Tony Softli, who has not been among the top three prior to this week, took over the broad jump with an effort of 24-1 SA and WSC's Don Nelson, who had been third, became the top discus thrower with a heave of 155-9V4. Oregon's Jim Grelle went out of the league last Satur day to win the Drake Relays mile in the record time of 4:07.9 while the bulk of the Oregon squad was rained out at Idaho. This Saturday Grelle tangles with Washington's Jack Larson in the feature race as the Ducks and the Huskies meet in Seattle to set tle the 1958 dual match cham pionship. The other improved marks of last week came from WSC's Don Maw, who moved into a tie for second with a 9.7 100- jjard dash, Washington's Er nie Brannon, who took over third in the two mile with a 9:25.3, Spike Arit of WSC, who ran 23.8 in the low hur dles to better his own top mark, Cliff LaBounty of Washington, who pole vaulted 13-6 to take second, Don Cresswell of WSC, who high jumped 6-2 to tie Oregon's Dave Edstrom, and WSC's Steve Frye, who held on to the top spot in the shot put by bettering his old season's best with a heave of 54-1 OVi.

It proposed changing the rule on leagues to provide that either major league may change to include any city of the other major league "after approval of the league desir ing to change its circuit and the commissioner." It also would stipulate that "such approval by the com missioner shall be withheld until after hearings have been held and necessary investiga tions conducted." The current rule on terri torial rights gives any major league club the power to veto the entrance of any other team into its city. "The proposal takes away the veto power of the other league," Charles Segar, assist ant to Frick, said. There appeared little doubt the proposal would be ap proved, since in joint league meetings each league votes in dividually and Frick casts a third ballot to break a tie. Frick today was to meet with other baseball officials to prepare the league for the four-year draft rule approved at the last major-minor league meeting. Segar said the meet ing was routine and there would be no change in policy discussed. The American League at a later session Monday dis cussed general problems in cluding the current situation on possible federal legisla tion concerning baseball. Mantle Suffers Sprain of Foot New York (IP) Casey Stengel kept his fingers cross ed today and hoped that Mickey Mantle's latest injury was as mild as the Yankee center-fielder said it was. Mantle suffered a sprained right foot while batting against Paul Foytack in the first inning of Tuesday's game with Detroit. Stengel was ready to take Mantle out of the lineup immediately but Mickey insisted he could play and remained in the game for seven innings. "They said it wasn't seri ous," Stengel said after the game, "and I hope that's true. We'll find out today." parents Protect Your Schools Send O. H. Bengtson back to the Legislature.
