Ted Kambour Hurls N WL Perfect Game By United Press International Yakima's Ted Kambour wrote his name into the Northwest league record book in no uncertain terms Sunday as he pitched a perfect game against Salem in the seven inning opener of a double header. Kambour's teammates were able to give him only one run, but that was all he needed. Kambour faced only 21 men. He struck out three and didn't give up a walk. The Bears scored their lone run in the fourth inning when Ted Tappe tripled and scored on an infield roller. . The Bears went on to make it a perfect day by copping the nightcap 3-1 behind the 6 hit pitching of Bob Cleboski. The double defeat ran Sa lem's losing streak to 12 straight and dropped the Sen ators deeper into the cellar, 13 V2 games behind league- leading Lewiston. The pace-setting B r o n c s split a doubleheader with Tri City, winning the opener, 8-1, and dropping the second game by a 9-1 margin. Bruce Mcintosh hit a two run homer and drove in two other runs to pace Lewiston's attack in the first game. The second tilt was all Tri-City as the Braves jumped off to a 5-0 lead at the end of three' in nings and never were in dan ger. Second-p lace Wenatchee inched a little closer to the top spot with two shutout vic tories over Eugene. Stu Hanson went the dis tance for Wenatchee in the opener as he scattered three hits and received errorless support in the Chiefs' 8-0 vic tory. Duane Richards also turned in a three-hit perform ance as he pitched Wenatchee to a 2-0 win in the second game. Arch Picked In Ring Tiff San Francisco (UPI) Archie Moore and Charley Norkus, both seeking shots' at Floyd Patterson's world hea vyweight title, meet tonight in a 10-round bout at the Civic auditorium. Moore is favored to defeat the bullet headed ex-Marine who packs a good left hook and pulled off one big sur prise already in this city. Four years ago Norkus knock ed out Charley Powell and to all intents and purposes ended the big San Francisco Forty Niner's own title aspi rations. Norkus feels that a good win over Moore might get him a championship bout with Patterson, whose manager Cus D'Amato, is feuding with the IBC and has a long list of "in eligible" opponents. Moore, who is the world light heavyweight champion although his present girth makes it seem impossible, had one chance at Patterson's title in 1956. He was stopped in the fifth round. Racers Readying At Indianapolis Indianapolis, Ind. (UPI) The speedway resembled a junk yard today as the fast est cars in the history of the 500 mile auto race were dis mantled for final inspection.

Ruttman and six other hopefuls were left stranded at the starting apron when time ran out.

OSC will meet Southern California in a best two-out-of-three game series. A doubleheader that would have given the Webfoots a chance for the championship was called by rain, and the Vandal victory put WSC out of the picture. Idaho's Jim Throckmorton belted a two-run homer in the 10th inning to give the Van dals their victory. Oregon State finished the Northern Division season with a 10-4 mark to 9-5 for WSC and Oregon.
