Hi
IWAl'kiRS
t home before they hit the
road again, the defending
world champions suddenly
have stepped into a spot to
teke command of the race.
And perhaps it's no coinci
dence, that Lew Burdette, the
World Series hero who dis
covered the rubber chicken
circuit can be tougher than
pitching against the New
York Yankees, went the dis
tance for the win. It was Bur
dette's fifth win of the year
and his first since May 22.
The Giants, dropping fast
after their early-season her
oics, were beaten, 6-1, by the
Pittsburgh Pirates, the St.
Louis Cardinals topped the
Cincinnati Redlegs, 10-4, with
six runs in the ninth inning
and the Philadelphia Phillies
downed the Los Angeles Dodg
ers 9-6 in the other NL tilts.
Ynks Win
In the American league the
New York Yankees snapped
their four-game losing streak
as Whitey Ford beat the
Cleveland Indians, 4-0, the
Detroit Tigers made it seven
of eight under Bill Norman
with a 9-2 triumph over the
Washington Senators. The
Chicago White Sox downed
the Boston Red Sox, 4-0 and
the Baltimore Orioles scored
a 4-1 victory over the Kan
sas City A's.
Burdette was tagged for
nine hits and in trouble most
of the way but the Braves
ran up an early lead as Frank
Torre, Harry Henbrink and
Johnny Logan knocked in
two runs each. The defeat
went to Moe Drabowsky, who
lost his fourth straight decis
ion of the season to the
world champions.
Triples by Ted Kluszewski,
Roman Mejias, and Bill Vir
don sparked a five-run second-inning
rally that carried
the Pirates to their sixth win
in nine games. Curt Raydon
went eight innings for his sec
ond victory while Johnny An
tonelli lost his fifth decision.
Redlegs Lose
Joe Cunningham and Stan
Musial tripled in a six-run
ninth as the Cardinals beat
the Redlegs for the second
straight time. Relief pitcher
Phil Paine won his third
straight game for the Cardin
als while ex-Redbird Willard
Schmidt suffered his second
defeat for Cincinnati. Ken
Boyer hit two homers and
Curt Flood one for St. Louis.
The Phillies staged a six
run rally in sthe eighth to

ter Teddy Brenner will try to
match lightweights Frankie
Ryff and Tommy Tibbs for a
return TV fight at St. Nicho
las arena, July 21, because of
much dissastisfaction over
Monday night's decision fa
voring Ryff.
Ryff of New York, 135Vz
pounds, was awarded a unani
mous 10-round verdict over
Tibbs of Boston, 134 ia. But
many of the 1,056 fans booed
the decision, and a poll of 10
sports writers at the ringside
favored Tibbs unanimously.
"The disagreement calls for
a rematch," Brenner said to
day. "And I'll try to make it
for July 21."
Ryff, favored at 12-5, was
awarded the eighth round on
a foul when Tommy was
penalized for a low left hook.
Frankie was fast-running
away from Tibbs, who beat
his body with left hooks and
his head with overhand rights.
He buckled Ryff s knees in
the fourth and ninth rounds
and also brought blood to his
nose in the ninth. There were
no knockdowns.

Ford restored the Yankees
lead to eight games as he won
his seventh straight decision
and eighth of the year with
the help of a three-run homer

Ossie Virgil, first Negro to
play for the Tigers, had a
double and four singles in his
five trips to the plate to lead
Detroit's 17-hit attack. Billy
Hoeft fanned six and walked
only one to win his sixth
game for the Tigers who
climbed to within one game
of the ."500-mark. Frank Boi
ling and Al Kaline homered.
Billy Pierce ran the White
Sox' string of shutout innings
to 33 with a five-hitter that
handed the Red Sox their
third straight loss. Jim Lan
dis had a triple and single
and Ray Boone singled home
one run for Chicago.
Billy O'Dell pitched a five
hitter for his seventh victory
for the Orioles whose attack
was paced by Gus Triandos'
three hits. Ray Herbert lost
his second game for the A's.

Beavers Show Spark
By Nipping Mounties
BY JAMES J. HEALY
United Press International
The Portland Beavers, last
year's Pacific Coast league
doormats, showed a spark of
life Tuesday night as they
struggled into fifth place by
whipping Vancouver, 6-5, in
a game which was remarkable
only for the 22 hits it pro
duced.
Portland scored in the first
frame when Wiley Moore tri
pled and came home on a
Wenatchee
Hurler Has
Win No. 10
United Press International
One pitching gem, one hit
ting binge and one last-ditch
rally highlighted Tuesday
night's Northwest league
baseball action.
At Wenatchee, lefty Claude
Osteen notched his 10th vic
tory of the year with a four-
hitter as Wenatchee clipped
league-leading Lewiston, 6-1.
Osteen fanned 10 to run his
total for the season to 123.
He retired 20 men in order
from the third inning on until
Bruce . Mcintosh broke the
string with a single with two
out in the ninth.
Wenatchee sewed it up
early with three runs in the
first frame with the big blow
a two-run homer by Red
Helms.
Tri-City went on the hit
ting spree, collecting : 19
bingles as the Braves swamp
ed Salem 15-1. The Braves
collected 10 runs in the fourth
frame and it was all over for
the Oregonians.
Yakima pulled ' the ninth
inning heroics with Rufus
Johnson belting a two-run
homer good for a 4-3 victory
over Eugene.
Eugene broke a 2-2 tie
with a single run in the ninth
but in the Yakima half of the
inning, Herm Lewis singled,
moved to second on a sacri
fice and the ball game was in
the bag when Johnson unload
ed his home run over the cen
ter field fence.
Bob Cleboski, who came on
in relief in the ninth, .was the
Yakima winner.
Newcombe
On Mound
For Redlegs
Cincinanti, Ohio (IP) Big
Don Newcombe, who is glad
to be out of the Los Angeles
Coliseum, goes to the mound
to pitch for the Cincinnati
Redlegs tonight for the first
time and face what he calls
"a big challenge."
Newcombe, battered from
the box in his last appearance
for the Los Angeles Dodgers
on Sunday, was acquired from
ttye Dodgers just before the
trading deadline expired.
The big righthander admit
ted today he "lost confidence
as things went badly" for him
with the Dodgers, where he
had a record of no victories
and six defeats. But he added
that he knows the Redlegs
"are counting on me."

single. But thai lead was
short-lived as the Mounties
tied it up in the next inning,
then surged ahead in the
third on a three run homer
by Joe Durham and three sin
gles, the last of which brought
in George Bamberger.
The Beavers tied it up in
the fourth, however, with two
homers of their own. George
Freese banged out the first
one with none on and Jack
Littrell collected a round trip
per with Luis Marquez on
first. The Beavers sewed it up
in the sixth frame on a walk,
a sacrifice and two singles
that brought in Freese. The
hit total, Portland 12, Van
couver 10.
In other league contests
San Diego took Spokane, 4-3,
Sacramento poked its head
out of the cellar long enough
to beat Phoenix, 6-3, and Salt
Lake smashed Seattle, 10-2.
In Salt Lake, the Bees
simply throttled Seattle with
two runs in the second and
third frames, followed by four
in the seventh and two addi
tional tallies in the eighth.
Oddly, Seattle got eight
hits, only two less than Salt
Lake. But poorer fielding and
lack of Rainier pitching con
trol told the story. The Seat
tle squad used three hurlers
to try to stem the avalanche
of runs while George Pereze
started, finished and won for
Salt Lake. The loser was
starter Chuck Churn.
The Sacramento Solons, in
winning- their contest cou
pled with Seattle's loss
moved into seventh place a
half game ahead of the Rain
iers, though with the same
percentage points.
Clay Dalrymple helped Sac
ramento win' its first game in
10 starts with a sixth inning
homer that got lost over the
right field fence. The Solons
took a three run lead in the
fourth and were never headed
by the Arizona club. Starter
Bud Watkins won the game.
Sour Note
The only sour note for the
Solons was the $100 fine
levied against Manager Sibby
Sisti for the dispute he be
came involved in last Friday
in San Diego. He was charged
with using bad language and
delaying the game.
In San Diego, the Padres
kept their toehold on third
place while collecting their
10th straight win in a 10-
mning game.
San Diego grabbed an early
two run lead with two walks
and two singles. The Indians'
Jim Baxes evened things out
in the fourth with his two run
homer. But despite another
run in the final inning - San
Diego steamed back with two
singles and a double to ice
the contest.

In Favor of 2
Game Agencies
Bend (UPI) The Oregon
Wildlife Federation, at its
semi-annual convention here
Saturday and Sunday, voted
in favor of separate fish and
game commissions in Oregon
and reaffirmed its support of
"the general principle of de
fining" Oregon steelhead as
a game fish.
Delegates turned down a
resolution for merger of the
state fish and game commis
sions into a single organiza
tion. T. S. Sandoz, president of
the Columbia River Packers
association, told the group
that efforts to make Oregon
steelhead a game fish was a
"direct blow aimed at the
commercial fishing industry."
The industry, he said, is a re
source "valuable not only to
us but to all the people of the
state and nation."
Joint Committee
Acting upon a Sandoz pro
posal, delegates called for the
formation of a joint commit
tee of the Wildlife Federation
and representatives of com
mercial fishing interests to
arbitrate issues of conflict.
Phil Schneider, director of
the Oregon Game Depart
ment, told the conventon in a
banquet address that the No. 1
issues facing wildlife conser
vators is the "existing and
pending" hydroelectric devel
opments in the Northwest.
Charles S. Collins, Rose-
burg, was installed as new
Federation president, succeed
ing .Bruce Yeager, also of
Roseburg. Roshal Groves was
reinstalled as treasurer and
Jack Williams was installed

ficers were elected at the

ball players will be ineligible
for competition next season.
Athletic Director Al Negrat-1
ti said Ray Scott and Bjarne
Jensen, both 6-9, failed to
achieve scholastic standards
necessary for sports competi
tion. "We regret we won't have
these two boys with us. But
we have developed a good
basketball program at the
university and we will carry
on with a fine group of boys,"
Negratti said.
"They have been placed on
academic probation and will

students," he said. .
Scott joined the Pilots last
February and became a sen

a crippling blow to the team.

Road Trip Could
Get Will Mays
Back in Groove
By HAL WOOD
San Francisco (UPI)
Willin' Willie Mays, who
loves nothing better than to
be loved, was glad to get out
of San Francisco for the cur
rent road trip to the Giants.
The "most exciting" player
in the game of baseball tried
so hard to put on a show for
his home-town followers that
he came up with his all-time
record slump so bad, in fact,
that he is barely leading the
league in hitting.
But the records show that
poor Willie, for his $70,000 a
year salary, hit only .118 for
his last nine games at home,
during which he went to the
plate 34 times and collected
only four hits.
For the 13-game series here
he clouted at a respectable
(for most players) .321 clip,
because he got 13 hits in the
first four games. But after
that Willie was kaput! x
"He's just trying too hard,"
said Manager Bill Rigney,
"He wants to do his best in
front of the home-town fans.'
