i G O Norman Debut Big Day for Tiger Grew; Thomas Stars for Pirates By United Pren International It's a toss-up who's the happiest guy In baseball to day, Detroit's new Manager Bill Norman or Pittsburgh slugger Frank Thomas. Norman put in his first day . as a major league manager with the Tigers Wednesday and it was a dilly. The Ben gals mode it a banner debut for him by sweeping a day- night doubleheader from the Red Sox. 7-0 and 9-3, to climb out of the American League cellar. tlhe Tigers treated their new 47-year-old skipper to a little of everything. Frank Lary showed him some fine five-hit pitching in posting his sixth victory in the open er and Billy Martin belted successive homers in the sec ond and third innings of the nightcap to help Jim Bun- ninff gain his third triumph, Thomas also enjoyed the kind of day he'll remember a long time and not simply because it happened to be his 29th birthday. The husky Pirate third baseman clouted two home runs and drove in seven in a 14-6 win over the Giants at San Francisco that knocked them out of the National league lead. 19 Homers Thomas now has 19 hom ers and 57 runs batted in. Urtfi aro tnnc in th nirmiit BlllcMazeroski highlighted a six-run first inning for the Pirates with a three-run hom er and Thomas hit one with the bases full in the second. Vern Law registered his sixth victory. The New York Yankees, possibly spurred on by Casey Stengel's worried warning, SVe ain't home yet," and en again, possibly not, stretched their lead to nine games with 10-2 and 2-1 vic tories over the Kansas City Athletics in a doubeheader. Tony Kubek and Elston Howard each drove in three runs with three hits in the opener as Don Larsen notch ed his fifth victory with late inning help from fireballer Ryne Duren. Reliever Virgil ' Trucks, pitching in a steady rain, forced across the win ning run in the night-cap when he walked four men in a row in the ninth. Bob Tur ley, tossed a six-hitter to be come the majors' first 10- game winner. Orioles Win The light-hitting Baltimore. Orioles erupted for five runs in the fourth inning to lick the Cleveland Indians, 7-4.

The Senators rapped Bill Fischer and three other White Sox pitchers for 11 hits, including Neil Chrisley's two-run triple during a three-run rally in the second inning. Ken Boyer broke up' an extra-inning struggle when he homered off Hal Jeffcoat in the 12th to give the St. Louis Cardinals a 3-2 win over the Cincinnati Redlegs. Morris Martin relieved St. Louis starter Sam Jones in the ninth, gave up only two singles over the last four in nings, and was the winner. Boyer's game-winning homer was his 11th.

Joe Adcock got the Braves off to a good start with a grand slam homer in the first in ning but the world champs had to break a 5-5 tie with a three-run rally in the eighth. Lee Walls hit his 15th homer for the Cubs. Gil Hodges drove in three runs and Don Drysdale pitch ed his first complete game of tthe season in leading the Los Angeles Dodgers to a 7-4 vic tory over the Philadelphia Phillies.

Dodge Plymouth Headquarters NEXT TO GREYHOUND Vancouver Mount.es Score Six Victories With Seven Tallies BY GENE BRYANT United Press International The Vancouver Mounties, not a club given to overpow ering its opponents recently, nevertheless made it six straight wins in a row Wednesday night and for the fifth time out of the 'last six games it was by a. score of 1-0. Wednesday night's victory over Seattle, which sent the Mounties a full two games ahead of second-place Phoenix in the Pacific Coast league standings, also marked the Canadians' sixth straight shutout, running their string of consecutive scoreless in nings to 41. Even more remarkable, Vancouver has scored but seven runs while winning its last six contests. Unearned Run The Mounties pushed across their only run, unearned, in the fifth when Barry Shetrone singled in Buddy Peterson, who had walked and then gone to third on an outfield error. Charlie Beamon, down from Baltimore, allowed the Rainiers only three hits while picking up his first PCL vic tory of the year.

San Diego shut out Sacramento, 7-0, and Portland made it two straight over Spokane, 5-2, as the Beavers moved out of the cellar into sixth place. At Phoenix, Jim McDaniel and Carlos Bernier homered for the Bees to hand the Gi ants their fifth defeat in their last six games. Giant starter Pete Burnside, a recent arrival from the parent San Francisco club, struck out 11 Salt Lake batters but a shaky first inning proved to be his downfall. The Bees pushed across two runs in that frame, added another in the third on Bernier's fourbagger and wrapped it up with a single run in the eighth. Ron KHdoo went the dis tance for the winners, stop ping Phoenix' left-handed hit ters without a safety. He al lowed only four hits, one a solo homer by Andre Rodgers in the ninth. The win moved the Bees to within 2Vz games of the Giants. Fast Start San Diego started out fast against Sacramento with three runs in the second, then coast ed to their second straight over the Solons. The Pads closed out the night's scoring with four more runs in the eighth as Bud Ppdbielan went the distance for his second victory. Portland scored a pair of runs in the third at Spokane, then added single markers in the fifth, sixth and seventh. The Indians scored once in the second and again in the ninth.

" Southern (Q)regoin) By MEL REES The weather held the key to the fishing this past week. When it was possible to get out on the lakes the fishing was worth it. All lakes in the area were producing some of the best fish of the season. Norman. Sneed, Medford, fishing eggs in Fish , lake snared an I8V2 rainbow along with several others in the bet ter than 12 inch class. Rich ard Plumley, of Hawthorne, Calif., made an excellent catch of nice fish including a 17 inch brookie. Anyone who has taken a brookie this large knows that it is quite a fish and tasty too! Scanty reports from Willow Creek reservoir say that some nice fish have been taken there. The fishing at Four Mile is reported as excellent although the fish are much smaller. These fish in Four Mile may. be smaller on the average but it is certain that they are some of the finest eating in the state. The water is icy cold and the blue-backs and brooks that come from there are among the finest. WILL PROLONG SEASON The heavy sno-pack in the high mountains has kept the streams in the area a lit tle on the high side for really good fishing yet but this is better for it will pro long it farther out into the summer. It is low water, when the fish are concen trated in the deeper holes that makes the fishing re ports soar but it is hard on. the fish population. IV POUNDER The weather didn't hurt the fishing at Harriman's re sort on Upper Klamath lake but it sure hurt the fisher men. Due to the stormy week very few anglers were brave enough to go out but those who did had good fishing. A number of limits were taken. C. C.
