Cretella (R-Conn.) prepared to introduce in the House today a sports anti-trust bill that would curb major league baseball broadcasts and telecasts in minor league ter ritory and outltw tht major league farm tystem effective in 1960.

Mock Ford in the southern Oregon district of American Legion junior baseball yesterday by flinging a 4 to 0 no-hit, no run triumph over Medford Crater Lake Motors at Che ney field here. The Medfordites came back to split the doubleheader with a 3 to 1 verdict in the second game. With it the Motormen salvaged some of their honor but gained no headway dis trictwise since the concluder was a non-league game. While dropping three tan gles to district foes, two of the scuffles to Medford, the Mock aggregation has won three straight and tumbled in Qione of he scraps which fig ure in the official standings. Crater Lake Motors is now one-two in the campaign. Hayes retired batters nine times on strikeouts and walk ed just three men. John Fox of Mock was the lone player wit more than one hit. He had a two-bagger and single and blasted home one. run. Frank Sprinkle knocked in a tally and the others scored on a passed ball and on an error. Anderson Homers A three-base lit by Ken Durkee and a towering home run swat over the left field barrier by Jerry Anderson, along with four-hit throwing by Pat McLaughlin were high lights of the five-inning sec ond scramble. GP put over two of its runs in the firs, inning on singles by Lee Holmes and Sprinkle, a sacrifice by Denny Walker, a pair of bases on balls and two paSsed balls. For run No. 3 Rex Benner singled, Sprin kle sacrificed and Fox dou bled in the third frame. The fourth marker was in the sixth innftg on a walk, stolen base and miscue.

KENTUCKY STRAIGHT BOURBON WHISKEY. 86 PROOF Tuesday, said he offered his bill as a compromise between the committee-approved meas ure and a substitute intro duced last week by four com mittee colleagues. Cretella's bill would apply the anti-trust laws to profes sional baseball, basketball, football and hockey. But it would exempt from any anti trust action the reserve clause, player contracts, territorial rights, expansion and forma tion of leagues, advancement third base only in the fifth inning when Ray Konopasek walked and rounded on an er ror and a wild pitch. Durkee led off Medford's first batting turn of the sec ond mix with his three-baser. He scored on Dick Ragsdale's sacrifice flyout. Anderson's tremendous rap came with two out in the inning. Med ford's other run in the ruckus was in the third inning. Rags dale and Bob Quinney singled and got to second and third on a double steal. Mike Par sons flied out and Ragsdale romped home after the catch. Grants Pass gained its run in the second inning on sin gles by Dan Wolke and Dave Anderson, two bases on balls and a sacrifice bunt by Jerry Patterson. Anderson drove the run over. He and Wolke each had two singles for the only GP safeties. McLaughlin fanned two, walked three and hit one bats man. Medford's five hits were all off Roy- Harris in three in nings. He whiffed one and walked one and Bill Cole is sued one free pass.

Smith Captures Royal Oaks Play Vancouver, Wash. (UPI) Bob Smith, Portland's Waver- ly club, carded a73 here Sun day to defeat Jerry Mowlds of University of Portland and take the Royal Oaks Invita tional golf crown. He won by ope stroke. The two 19-year-old golfers tied for first place last week end, necessitating a playoff. MARK EQUALLED Sedaka, Kyushu, Japan (UPI) Fukiaki Masunaga, 19- year-old Nihon University stu dent, equalled the world rec ord of 1:03.1 seconds for the 100-meter butterfly event yes terday in a local swim meet The world mark originally was set by Takashi Ishimoto. of players through draft and waiver and assignment of player contracts. It would however, correct what Cretella called "the worst type of sports monop oly." He said it would protect baseball's minor leagues "from total destruction by at tacking the two major threats to the existence of the minor leagues indiscriminate tele casting and broadcasting of major league games into minor league territory and the farm system." "Accordingly," Cretella said, "for the sake of minor league survival, I am proposing that "1 No major league game telecast or broadcast be per mitted into a minor league area when a minor league team is playing in that city, unless that minor league team specifically consents to such a broadcast or telecast. "2 No major league team may, after Jan. 1, 1960, own a minor league team directly or indirectly." Cretella's bill also would provide that: A player who signs a con tract when he is less than 21 years old, would have a choice of continuing to play for the team with which he signed or becoming a free agent on reaching the age of 21. A player who has served in the majors for at least three years cannot be transferred to the minor leagues without nis consent after he is once placed on the waiver list and is claimed by a major league club. A player who has served in the minor leagues for five years cannot be transferred with out his consent to an other team in the same or lesser classification. Bears Rise Into Second Position United Press International The Yakima Bears were in stalled in second place in the Northwest league today, a scant nine percentage points ahead of the deposed We natchee Chiefs. Wenatchee was shelled out of the No. 2 spot Sunday by the curently "slugging" Eu gene Emeralds who fashioned a total of 26 hits into 12-4 and 7-5 victories at Wenatchee. Yakima split with Tri-City, copping the nightcap of a twin bill 9-5, after the Braves captured the opener, 8-4, their only win of the series. And league-leading Lewiston set tled for just one win In its series with cellarite Salem, taking the second game, 6-1, after the Senators romped to a 6-2 opening game win. At Yakima, Tri-City turn ed three singles and four walks given up by three Bear pitchers into a four-run sec ond inning and couldn't be caught in the. opener. In the nightcap, Bob Koski made it look like another Brave vic tory was in store when he parked a 375-foot grand-slam home run over the centerfield fence. But Yakima came right back with five runs of their own in that first inning. Tri City tied it at 5-5 in the fourth, then Ted Tappe start ed a four-run Bear surge in the sixth with, a 380-foot cir cuit wallop to sew it up. Leading pitcher in ' the league, Claude Osteen, was the victim of the second game at Wenatchee, despite his nine strikeouts, which raised his loop-leading total to 134. Eu gene hurler Billy Ells struck out 11 in winning the con test. Hal Reniff, making his first start for Salem, scattered seven hits to set down the Broncs at Lewiston. In the nightcap, three unearned runs in the second inning gave Lewiston all it needed. Hill, Gendebien Win a LeMans Le Mans, France (UPI) Driver Bruce Kessler of Bev erly Hills, Calif., who was in jured in the same collision that took the life of French driver Jean Mary in the 24- hour Le Mans endurance sports car race, was reported in "satisfactory" condition to day in a hospital here. The race ended Sunday with Phil Hill of Santa Moni ca, Calif., becoming the first American driver to share in the title in the famed race, teaming with Oliver Gende bien of France to take first place in a Ferrari with an average speed of 107 miles per hour. Mary, the first person to be killed in this race since new safety rules were installed after the 1955 tragedy in which 83 persons perished, was killed when his Jaguar collided with Kessler's car and smashed into a brick wall. , SIPCDnBTTS Stock Auto Main By Wayne Lemley By RICK SCOTT Ashland Wayne Lemley stormed from behind to sweep by Red McGilvray and take the 25-lap main event of the opening 1958 stock car races at Valley View Speedway Sat urday evening. Lemley hesitated and stuck with the main body of the field before he began to move out at about the 15th lap. Lemley passed McGilvray when the latter's engine blew all its rods. McGilvray thrilled the crowd when he came from be hind previously in the second heat race to nose out Cecil James by a mere two feet for Ron Peery Does Well In All-Star Ron Peery from Medford High acquitted himself well in the prep all-star baseball game Saturday at Eugene. He had two hits in five times up as State lead-off hit ter and came close to getting another. He was in center field, the position he played for Medford, for the entire game. Metro got its winning run off Jim Smith from Grants Pass on a hit batter, a sacri fice and error and a squeeze bunt. Eugene (UPI) The Metropolitans squeezed out a 9-8 baseball victory over State Saturday in the first an nual high school Senior All- Star game at Bethel park here. A bunt by Sam Holteen in the ninth inning scored Metro's Terry Stewart from third for the deciding run. The Staters, down by a score of 8-2 going into the seventh, exploded for three runs and added three more in the eighth frame to tie it all up- Marv Carrick, Parkrose, was the winning pitcher. Dave Wells, The Dalles, was charged with the loss. Unknowns Take Mille Miglia Brescia, Italy (UPI) Lui gi Taramazzo and Giuseppe Gerini, two relatively un known drivers, won Italy's famed and tamed "Mille Mig lia" Sunday in a drastically slowed-down race that claimed two lives despite numerous added safety features. Taramazzo and Gerini aver aged only 30.3-miles per hour in their Ferrari, taking ap proximately 30 hours to nego tiate 1,000 miles of steep roads, precipitious curves and exacting time check points. After three decades, during which it won the reputation for being the classic "killer" of road racing, the Mille Mig lia was slowed to a virtual walk this year by new rules and new routes along the winding mountain roads. The two persons killed were drivers Gujdo Zerneri and Mario Mora, who met death only a few ' miles from the starting line Saturday. Dependable THAT'S TRU-MIX!

Third McGilvray Topping the first heat was the third McGilvray brother, Cliff, in his stock Studebaker. Jack Keck Sr. placed second in his Dodge convertible. For a small field the drivers put one one of the most excit ing races as evidenced by the general feetling of the crowd. Down to the wire for sec ond place in the final heat came Jerry Weir and Bill Chase in a neck and neck bat tle before Weir finally won out by about six inches. Earl Stevens in his Buick ran into trouble when he de veloped flames on the eighth lap of the main event. Lon Gay in his 1951 Pontiac broke an axle and lost a wheel on the 11th lap. During most of the early stages of the main event Lem ley appeared to be hanging back and biding his time until he made his race winning move and passed up Red Mc Gilvray's ailing Studebaker. Lemley in moving out showed he was back in old form again which led him to the top point total during the 1957 hardtop season. Lemley was also driv ing a top notch Ford for his brother, Doyce. Red McGilvray in his Stude baker reported he was just waiting for the car to blow. He bought the car just recent ly and worked the motor over only to the extent of installing new spark plugs. Racing is slated for the near future with the date to be an nounced in the next week. Chico Nips Dairy Maids Rogue Valley Dairy Maids softball team broke even on its week end road trip.
