Newspaper Page Textrailhelman Pitches Mo Orioles Defeat Yanks 1-0 By United Presi International Hoyt Wilhelm, 35-year-old knuckleballer who was sup posed to be on the skids in the majors, fashioned the first no-hit, no-run game in the modern history of the Balti more Orioles Saturday when he beat the American league champion New York Yankees, 1-0. The only run of the game came in the seventh inning when Wilhelm's battery-mate, catcher Gus Triandos, slam med his 30th homer . of the season off reliever- Bobby Shantz. Only two batters reached base against Wilhelm, both. of them by walks. Bobby Rich ardson walked in the third in ning and was put stealing, and Jerry Lumpe walked in the fourth. Wilhelm, who was cast off by the St. Louis Cardinals last year, then signed with the Indians who sent him - to Baltimore on waivers ' last month, used knuckleballs al most exclusively in gaining only his third victory of the year. He has lost . 10 games. Gained Feme The veteran right-hander, who gained his greatest lame with the New York Giants' pennant -winning team of 1954, had to be at his best in the early innings against Yankee starter Don Larsen. Larsen, pitching for the first time in 33 days and being tested for a world series as signment,, yielded only one scratch hit for six- innings. That was a bunt single by Bob Boyd in the second in ning. Shantz yielded four more hits, the big one being Tri andos' homer which tied the record for most homers hit by an an American league catcher in one season. Yogi Berra of the Yanks shares the mark. Jackie Jensen's single with the bases loaded in the eighth inning gave the Boston Red Sox a 2-0 victory over the Washington Senators. Jen sen's two runs-batted-in in creased his total to 118 and earned Frank Sullivan his 12th triumph. Sullivan struck out seven and yielded only four hits. Loser Vito Valen tinetti, who held Boston hit less until the seventh, gave up only three hits. Cleveland and Detroit di vided a doubleheader, the In dians winning the opener, 2-1, and the Tigers taking the nightcap, 4-1. Plnch-hitter Randy Jackson singled home Billy Moran to cap a two-run Tribe rally in the ninth in ning of the opener. Reliever Hal Woodeshick was the win ner and Frank Lary the loser. In the nightcap, the Tigers hammered out loser Gary Bell in the third inning when they scored all their runs. South paw Billy Hoeft hurled a five hitter for his 10th victory, the only run off him being Vic Power's 16th homer in the fourth. Chicago was at Kansas City in a night game.

HORNBROOK Voters Turn Down College By KATHERINE CHAPMAN Hornbrook With an em phatic "No" at the polls Tues day, voters of the northern part of Siskiyou county turned thumbs down on the $2,940, 000 bond authorization to build a junior college in Sis kiyou county. A district-wide turnout of approximately 50 per cent of the 14,000 registered voters failed to give even a simple majority, much less the two thirds majority required to authorize school bonds. The turnout was "astonish ing" according to County School Superintendent W. E. Roberts, who stated that he could recall no other school election that had drawn out so many voters. The latest un official tally for the county showed 3,656 "yes" against 3,720 "no" votes. Hornbrook voted 38 "yes" and 88 "no," which tallies with the 50 per cent voting in the rest of the county. Of 29 elementary school dis tricts voting, a total of only five districts favored the col lege, and these five are in the immediate vicinity of the 'site of the proposed college, which is near Weed.
