FAIRBANKS

Billings, Mont. (LTD Fair
banks, Alaska, shaking out 11
hits from Bend pitchers, elim
inated Bend from the Ameri
can Legion regional baseball
tourney by defeating them,
7-4, here Saturday afternoon.'
Alaska's big inning was the
second, when a combination
of two errors and four hits
brought across Jim Osborne,
first baseman Earl Erickson,
centerfielder Phil Pope and
second baseman Phil Ramos.
Osborne slammed out a
standing-up double in the first
inning and then stole home on
a wild pitch to give the Alas
kans their first run of the
game.
The teams ' were evenly
matched. The Big difference
arose when Bend wasn't able
to tak Fairbanks' pitchers
Dick Farris and Jack Garner
for more than four hits.
Bend's first score of the
game came in the first inning
when shortstop Larry Clark
walked, stole third on a wild
pitch and scored on a sacri
fice fly by first baseman Pat
Connally..
The Oregon team scored
another run in the third and
picked up two more in the
fourth when left fielder John
Newell stole third base and
came in on a single by Clark.
Centerfielder Dick Lenaberg
also scored in that inning.
In the sixth inning, pitcher
Jim McCarthy took over for
Mike Reilly for Bend after
Osborne scored on a single.
With the bases loaded and
two out, McCarthy struck out
one man and allowed only
one of the men on base to
score.
McCarthy's pitching drew
praise from the fans in the
tsands as he struck out seven
batters during the next three
innings with his sharp-break
ing inside curves.

Eleven Deer
Hunt Unit
Quotas Full
Portland A flood of ap
plications for the unit deer
hunts during the last two days
before the filing deadline re
sulted in 11 deer management
units filling beyond the per
mit quota, the state game com
mission office reported.
The units include Clatsop,
Deschutes, Fort Rock, Green
Springs, Grizzly, Interstate,
Klamath Metolius, Ochoco,
Paulina, and Silver Lake. All
of these units were oversub
scribed, and a drawing will be
held at 10 a.m. on Monday,
Aug. 25, at the game commis
sion's Portland office to deter
mine successful applicants.
The game commission was
not surprised that the popular
deer hunting units down
through central Oregon had
more subscribers than permits
and had geared its machinery
to handle the application flood
and the expected drawing,
Surprise was the filling of the
little known Clatsop unit well
beyond the established permit
quota. This was not expected
since the unit will be open
for taking doe deer only with
in one mile of established ag
ricultural lands. Most of the
area available for taking doe
deer is brushy and difficult to
hunt.
Came Close
Units that came close to
filling include the Powers unit
with about 60 permits still
available, the Maupin unit
with about 25 permits left, and
the "Applegate unit with only
3 permits remaining.
All other units ran true to
form with applications num:
bering from less than one-half
the permit quota on up. All
hunters who filed applications
properly filled out for these
unfilled units will receive per
mits. Hunters who would still
like to apply for a unit hunt
and those hunters who are un.
successful in the drawings
may file for one of the unfilled
units. Deadline for filing has
been set for Sept. 15 and a sec
ond drawing scheduled if
necessary for Sept. 22.

UO Strong
At Tackle
Positions
University of Oregon, Eu
gene Even before the first
football is kicked or passed
in 1958, it is a safe bet to say
.that Oregon's starting line in
the new campaign will be
big, fast, and extremely agile,
and nowhere in this forward
wall are these assets more
evident than at the tackle po
sition. It is here that Coach Len
Casanova can point to no less
than four lettermen" and at
least three promising rookies
for the rugged work that lies
ahead against eight PCC foes
and intersectionals with Okla
homa and Miami.
Jim Linden, a marvelous
performer for two seasons at
right tackle, heads the fine
group, and he is adequately
assisted on the left side by
senior letterman Darrell
Aschbacher. Behind Linden
on the right side is veteran
Tom Keele and an all-Am
erican junior college selec
tion, Jon. Wilcox from Boise
JC, Is expected to back Asch
bacher. Besides these four,
Letterman Stu White and two
sophomores, Riley Mattson
and Garry Stensland, will
wage a stiff fight for the top
reserve berths.
One of Best
Linden has been called by
Casanova, "one of the best
tackles I've coached." The
221-pound, 6-4 veteran would
get other considerable back
ing from Webf oot foes durin,
the past two seasons, too. Dis
pite his size, Linden moves
well and plays offense or de
fense equally well.
Aschbacher a member of
the famed "Ugly Duckling"
line last season which played
such an important role in the
Webfoot's march to a PCC
co-championship, rivals Lin
den's size at 215 and, 6-1.
Keele, just a junior this year,
and Wilcox, a member of the
freshman Duckling squad in
1956, should provide potent
backing for the starting duo.
Terry, Jones
Barely Miss
No-Hit Games
By MILTON RICHMAN
United Press International
Close, but no cigar.
That's how it was for both
Ralph Terry of the Athletics
and Sad Sam Jones of the
Cardinals.
Terry pitched a one-hitter
and barely missed a perfect
game in beating the Senators,
1-0, Friday night, while Jones
came within six outs of a no
hitter and then had to settle
for a three-hit, 9-1 victory
oveirthe Phillies.
The "villain" who spoiled
Terry's bid was his pitching
rival Russ Kemmerer. Kem-
merer connected for a clean
single in the third inning and
was the only Washington run
ner to reach base as Terry
did not walk a man and faced
only 28 batters en route to his
eighth win.
Jones Ties Record
Kansas City scored the only
run of the game in the third
on Bob Cerv's triple and
Harry Simpson's double.
Jones, the free-wheeling,
tooth-pick chewing fireballer,
tied the major league record
of 14 strike-outs in a night
game as he held the Phils hit
less until Rip Repulski led
off the eighth inning with his
11th home run.
Jones was bidding for the
second no-hitter of his major
league career, having pitched
his first against the Pirates,
May 12, 1955, while still a
member of the Cubs.

get their machines tuned to
perfection.
The record book has been
rewritten many times during
the last three months as driv
ers continue to improve the
performance of their cars
through better traction, in
creased carburation, better ig
nition and the other aspects
that go into a perfectly per
forming engine.
Several cars built by local
racing enthusiasts are expect
ed to make their first appear
ance of the summer on the
SOTA strip today. Although
none seem likely to challenge
the strip record of 134.24
miles per hour they certainly
will have a good chance of
setting some new cass records
if they perform to their own

SOTA has posted $150 sav

breaks the present strip mark.
If the record is not broken
today, the amount will be in
creased to $200 for the cham

According to present infor
mation the world famous
"Glass Slipper" will be one of
the featured cars in this years
big championship meet. This
sleek machine was the attrac

that set the standard of 134.24.
