    Yankees
Nod on
Milwauk - (tPD - The
Yankees, the betling choice
for every previous game of
the 1958 World Series, held
that honor to the end.
The American league
champions were "even-11"
favorites for today's
seventh and decisive meet
ing with the Braves. Yan
kee rooters must lay $11 to
win $10 under this profes
sional point "spread." Mil
waukiee backers must lay
$10 to win $10 even
money.
These quotations were
based on the assumption
that Don Larsen would be
New York's starting pitcher
and Lew Burdette would
open for the Braves. '
Milwaukee-CPD-The World
Series was stretched to seven
games after all because of a
big Yankee inning and the
three-pitch relief pitching of
bullet Bob Turley. .
Turley came out of the bull
pen for only one out Wednes
day to save a 4-3 victory for
New York over the Milwau
kee Braves and even the se
ries at three games each.
The Yankees had given re
lief ace Ryne Duren a 4-2 lead
with two runs in their half of
the 10th, but the fireballer
from Cazenovia, Wis., had lost
one of the runs and Braves
were on first and third when
Turley, who kept the Yan
kees alive with a 7-0 victory
Monday, was summoned from
the bullpen.
At that explosive moment
there wre two men out and
two men on with the bounc
ing Braves, needing but one
more run to tie it up, snooting
to close it out.
Aaron at Third
Hank Aaron strained eager
ly on third base and pinch
runner Felix Mantilla waited
on first.
Turley, a comeback winner
himself in that big fifth con
test, strode in and took oyer.
He hardly broke a sweat.
"Bullet Bob" reared back and
fired a strike across the heart
of the plate. Torre fouled one
off and on Turley's third de
livery Torre lofted a soft
line drive which Gil McDou
gald took on a timed run to
his right and the ball game
was over.
Thus the Yankees were
even with the defending world
champion Braves after being
down three games to one.
Only one club in baseball's
long history has ever come
back from that deficit to win
the title.
Most of the game's big mo
ments occurred in the 10th.

FISHING SLOVS
Fishing during the past
week has generally slowed
en the river. The large run
reported entering the mouth
at Gold Beach seems to
have "kegged" up along the
way somewhere and hasn't
reached the valley as yet.
Last week when I was in
Agnes I talked with a num
ber of "through to the
coast" guides and they re
ported that fish were scat
tered all along the river
and didn't seem to be mov
ing. This is probably due lo
the low and extremely clear
water.
COULD STAND MOVE
Incidentally I took the trip
down the river because of the
manv reDorts of the excellent
fly fishing in the Illahe, Agnes
area. As usual by the time I
arrived the fishing had slack
ed off in fact the natives said
it was poor. I haven't had the
opportunity to experience the
"cfnod" fishine down there but
if taking 14 steelhead on fly
during two evenings and. one
; mornine session is considered
; poor then I could stand some
l ot this!
These steelies are the small
er variety that preceed the
bie fish. If the big fish rut as
hard and fight us hard as their
smaller cousins I don't know
how an angler could hold
them in that fast water may
be they don't! As is customary
with steelhead, they do not
seem to hit flies excpet when
thp sun is off the water so
it limits the angling to about
2V2 hours in the morning ana
the same time in the evening.

putout stowed it away, also
had started the winning rally.
They were all tied at 2 to 2
when he stepped up and de
livered a lead-off home run in
the 10th off Warren Spahn,
the 37-year-old southpaw who
twice had beaten the Yankees
and was shooting for the same
route-going triple which Bur
dette posted last year.
Spahn retired the next two
hitters and then the roof fell
in.
Elston Howard singled. Yogi
Berra singled to send Howard
or to third and that's when
Haney decided Spahn was
through. He called" on his
fast-balling relief, ace, Don
McMahon, to put out the fire.
It wasn't to be. Big Moose
Skowron, in a slump' at sea
son's end, slashed out a sin
gle which scored Howard with
what was to prove the win
ning run. McMahon then got
Duren on strikes.
Duren, who fanned eight of
the first 16 batters he faced,
started to close it out in the
10th when he got Red Schoen
dienst on a ground ball.
But then on a 3 and 2 count
to shortstop Johnny Logan,
plate umpire Charles Berry of
the American league called
the next pitch ball four, with
all the Yankees protesting.
Then it was Eddie Mathews
Spahn Declares
He Did Not Tire
Milwaukee - (UPD - A casual
visitor arriving in the 10th
inning of Wednesday's World
Series game would have
thought Warren Spahn had
won it.
The Milwaukee Braves'
veteran left-hander was walk
ing off the mound to a stand
ing ovation. But instead of
winning, he lost. The New
York Yankees had taken a
3- 2 lead and went on to win,:
4- 3, and even the classic at
three games each. - - -
A- quick check of the rec
ord, however, would explain
the accolade given the 37-year
old pitcher. He had won two
games and came close to join
ing teammate Lew Burdette
and a handful of others with
three wins in one series.
Just how close he came
was the topic of discussion in
the Braves' quiet dressing
room after the game.
"I didn't think I tired and
felt I could have gone all the
way," Spahn said. "But you
can't be selfish about these
things with the game hinging
on every - pitch. Haney said
it was time to leave so it was
time to leave. And I had con
fidence in Mac (Don Mc
Mahon), who took my place."
REES
done from ' boats with - a
guide but there are plenty
of good wading spots if one
can stand up on that super
lubricant they call moss! I
have waded miles of
streams including the Mad
ison in Montana which I
consider one of the slickest
but this lower Rogue has
them all beat.
This gave me a good op
portunity lo try out a new
type of wading sandle orig
inated in Grants Pass and
stocked by several sport
shops.
Sole With Calks
This wader is simply a rub
ber-sole -with' logger's calks,
toe straps and heel plate
which attaches very quickly
to any type of footwear. It is
superior to logger's boots
(which most waders agree is
the best to date) because it
is flexible and fits the con
tour of the surface under the
foot.
I had the opportunity to
wade the same water with a
native in the lower river who
was wearing boots. It was
agreed that these flexible sole
calks were far better. Besides
selling for about one third
the price they are much more
versatile. It is my opinion
that this is the finest article
for wading that has been pro
duced and I would highly rec
ommend them to anyone who
is tired of slipping and sliding
around our slick streams.
DUSK PROSPECTS
The prospects for a bumper
opening day for the duck sea
son is good with many reports
drifting in that the Klamath
basin is "loaded" with birds.
But, like many good reports
some blue bird weather can
put these birds higher than
the proverbial kite after the
first barrage. The best hunt
ing should be found on the
upper marshes where thous
ands of birds have been seen.
Don't forget your duck
stamp!

dispatch.)
By RYNE DUREN
Written For UPI
Milwaukee (UPD I never
worked so hard in my life
and my only regret is that I
couldn't finish. .
Much as I would have liked
to, though, I'll go with Casey
Stengel's decision any time. I
simply kept firing away un
til I got tired. When I started
to lose it in the 10th inning,
I and Casey knew it.
Striking out Wes Coving
ton, Bill Bruton and Warren
Spahn in the ninth must
have taken more out of me
than I thought.
Casey came out to the
mound in the 10th for the
first time after Hank Aaron
had singled home Johnny Lo
gan. I had thrown Aaron one
of the best pitches and he
really tomahawked it.
Anyway, Case asked me
how I intended to pitch to
Joe Adcock. I told him I was
going to try to keep the ball
low on him. That's what I
did and Adcock singled.
Adcock Hit Does It
Adcock's base hit finished
me and brought on Bob Tur
ley, who wound it all up by
getting pinchhitter Frank
Torre.
Although I gave up only
one hit until the 10th, it was
a very rough day for me. The
humidity along with the pers
piration from my forehead
clouded my eyeglasses all the
time I was pitching. You may
have seen me wipe my glasses
once or twice. That was the
reason.
They asked me about some
gesture I made to plate um
pire Charley Berry when he
called a fourth ball on John
ny Logan in the 10th. Frankly
I don't remember doing it.
But I do know that I told
him I thought the pitch was
a strik, not a ball.
Getting credit for today s
(Wednesday's) victory is about
the biggest thing that's ever
happened to me.
When you're down in the
minors, you dream about
something like this. But you
never figure it will happen.
You can bet I'll never for
get this one.
Casey Stengel
Will Be Back
Milwaukee - (UPD - Win or
lose, Casey's coming back
next year.
Casey Stengel's managerial
contract with the Yankees
expires this season, and there
has been speculation, parti
cularly since the club has
made no announcement about
next year, that the 68-year-old
pilot might call it a career if
he is beaten again . by the
Braves. He is completing his
10th year with the team.
"Nonsense!" Stengel snort
ed when the subject was
broached. "There's a lot of
work to be done with this club
next spring, but I don't wanna
talk ' about contracts or any
thing." Stengel's contract with the
Yankees has been on a so
called "mutual agreement"
basis for the past few years,
meaning Casey can give the
club notice of quitting as well
as it can fire him. He's 'not
about to quit, though, nor are
the Yankees about to let him
go even if Milwaukee wins.

Inning
bed out the mark posted by
Bill Abstein of the Pirates in
1909.
Fearing nothing now, Sten
gel ordered Duren to go into
his full windup as he pitched
to Hank Aaron. On the first
pitch, Logan scooted uncon
tested down to second. Then
Aaron lined a single to left
and Logan raced on home.
Now the Yankee margin
was only one run and that
one out they needed began to
loom larger and larger.
It became mountainous
when Joe Adcock stepped to
the plate. Stengel went to the
mound to confer with Duren.
"What are you planning to
throw to this guy?" Stengel
asked.
"Low stuff," Duren replied.
"Okay," said Stengel, leav
ing him in.
But Adcock got hold of one
of those low balls and drilled
it to left field for a single
which sent Aaron charging to
third.
With right-handed hitting
catcher Del Crandall coming
up, Stengel called in Turley
from the bullpen. Haney
countered with Torre but
Turley countered with his
knockout punch.
