pomp over the Baltimore Ori
olts and the Chicago White
Sok and Washington Sena
tors split a doubleheader. The
Whit Sox won the first
game, 5-4, but the Senators
pebounded, 5-2.

error by Peewee Reese, a
fielder's choice, Richie Ash-
burn's triple and a single oy
Solly Hemus. Don Newcombe
suffered his fifth straight loss
for the Dodgers.
Hovt Wilhelm, who has re
lieved in six of the Indians'
last nine games, preserved
rookie Gary Bell's first ma
jor league triumph by shut
ting out the Orioles in the last
three innings. Dick Browns
two-run double featured a
five-run Cleveland eighth in
ning that " clinched the win.
Rofer Maris had three hits
for the Indians and Minnie
Ifinoso had two, including a
homer.
Billy Pierce relieved m the
ninth inning to protect the
Whife Sox' opening-game vic
tory over Washington but the
Senators rallied for four runs
in the sixth inning to divide
the double bill. Hal Griggs,
aided by Dick Hyde, won the
second game for the Senators
Julio Becquer's two-run sin
ele was the big blow of the
Washington victory.

Drag Races
This Sunday
The sound of powerful en
gines and smell of burning
tires will usher in Southern
Oregon Timing association's
second drag race slate of the
season Sunday on the Camp
White strip.
Time trials will commence
an hour earlier, at 9 a.m., as
a result of increased contestant
turnout two weeks ago. No
entries will be accepted after
12 noon and eliminations will
be held after lunch.
Medford dragster pilot, Noel
Black, top-eliminator from the
opening drags held two weeks
ago, looms as a top threat to
any and all comers. His potent
dragster named "Skylark 220
has turned in times of over
130 miles per hour recently
and observers feel that at
any time he may hit the right
combination of tuning, gear
ratio, tires, etc., that will en
able him to reach speeds high
er than any ever attained in
the Northwest.
Should he, or any other en
trant, break the present strip
record of 134.24 MPH they
will receive as added prize a
$50 savings bond. Each drag
that this record does not fall
an additional $25 bond will be
added.

chances of winning the title

excited about it," Hogan said.

else. I'd have to say I'm more
relaxed now. going into an
Open, than I've ever been."
Hopes Putter Stays
Delaring that the back
trouble which forced him to
withdraw from the Open last
year bothers him "only now
and then," Hogan only hoped
that "my putter stays with
me.
He shot a firfal practice
round par 70 over the tough
Southern Hills golf course
Tuesday and decided that
would be his final tuneup ex
cept "for hitting a few balls
off the practice tee today."
"You have to think beyond
Thursday and Friday," Hegan
explained. "Those single
rounds those two days don't
concern me. But those two
rounds on Saturday well, at
46 that's something else."
