Newspaper Page TextS MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, tPaceflc Coast League Eyes Three-Way Pennant Chase Phoenix, Ariz.-dTB-The Pa cific Coast league begins its 57th season Friday hopeful of complete recovery from the amputation the National league performed a year ago in cutting off the loop's two biggest cities L o s Angeles Angeles and San Francisco. A chief reason for cheer is the anticipated three-way pen nant chase among defending champion Phoenix, Spokane and San Diego. League president Leslie O'Conner and the PCL direc tors believe the impetus of a hot race will stimulate fan in terest in the league once again. Attendance dropped to its lowest in IS years last season Milwaukee Braves Take Over Lead; White Sox Ahead Uniied Press International Johnny O'Brien and Luis Aparicio, a pair of little pop gun hitters, are the big rea sons why the Milwaukee Braves and Chicago White Sox are still in orbit. O'Brien, who didn't make a hit all last season, singled in the winning run in the 10th inning to give the Braves a 4-3 decision over the Phila delphia Phillies Tuesday while Aparacio, a slick-fielding but light-hitting shortstop, drove in both runs with a fifth-inning single as the White Sox beat the Kansas City Athletics, 2-0. The third straight victory for the unbeaten Braves en abled them to take over sole possession of first place in the National league when the Chi cago Cubs whipped the San . Francisco Giants, 5-2. With four straight wins the White Sox are off to their best start in years and are technical leaders of the American league although both the Cleveland Indians and world champion New York Yankees also are undefeated. Scor Beats Tigers ; The Cincinnati Reds handed the Pittsburgh Pirates a fourth straight setback, 3-2 and the St. Louis Cardinals defeated the Dodgers, 6-2, be fore a record crowd of 61, 552 at Los Angeles. In the American league, the Indians made it three in a row when tierb Score "blinded" the De troit Tigers, 8-1, the Yankees blitzed the Baltimore Orioles, 13-3, and the Boston Red Sox beat the Washington Senators 7-3. ; O'Brien, acquired as fbench strength" from the Phillies, got his first chance With the Braves after enter ing the game as a pinch-run-her. Hank Aaron and Wes Covington had singled to start athe 10th and O'Brien deliver ed the decisive run with a looping single to right field en a 3-2 pitch by Dick Farrell. Mickey Vernon, another Mil waukee "pick up" singled home the tying run in the last of the ninth after W a 1 1 y Post's two-run triple gave the Phillies a 3-2 lead in the top pf the frame. Aparicio continued his tor rid spring hitting for the White Sox when he singled home both their, runs after a Single by Johnny Callison and a double by Bubba Phillips. Billy Pierce, ace of the White Sox staff, yielded six hits, no walks and struck out three in posting the 32nd shutout of his career. Aparicio, who has a three-year .263 batting av erage, homered to win a game for the White Sox last Sat urday and is hitting .389 so far this season. Banks Homers Twice ' i Ernie Banks hit a pair of two-run homers for the Cubs who spoiled San Francisco's home opener as well as Jack Sanford's debut. The Giants threatened to pull out the game in the ninth when they filled the bases with one out but Don Elston relieved win ner Dave Hillman and struck out Daryl Spencer and Bob Schmidt to end the game. Bob Purkey pitched a seven hitter and rookie Vada Pinson and Ed Bailey clouted homers to sink the Pirates who have scored a total of six runs in four straight defeats. Purkey, a native of Pittsburgh, has beaten his ex-teammates twice in five days and five times without a loss in his career. Hal Smith, who hit only one homer last season, blast ed a two-run round-tripper and two singles to lead the Cardinals' attack on Johnny Podres. Lindy McDaniel shut o-t the Dodgers for seven in-":r-s as he Ditched the Card " -s to their first wjn after 'ree defeats. The crowd was aue's highest for a r'nle night game- although .v-e have been larger crowds in Los Angeles for a single Oregon, Wednesday, April IS, 1939 when only 1,502,087 turned out. Spokane and Salt Lake which replaced Hollywood and Los Angeles in the re aligned league, did well for transplants last year, with Spokane leading the circuit in attendance with 270,297 pay ing patrons. Only Phoenix didn't take root as the team replacing San Francisco. The local Giants drew only 122,- 750, and with a championship club. Old Standbys Dsappoiniing Some old standbys like Seattle, Portland and Sacra mento had sharp attendance drops , last year, and partly blamed the National league invasion as cause for the af- day game and a twi-night double-header. Score, the big question mark of the Cleveland staff, struck out nine batters and allowed only five hits as the Tigers dropped their fourth in, a row. Woodie Held drove in six runs with two homers including a grand slam. Score, looking like the strikeout king of 1956, retired 19 Tigers in succession between Rocky Bridges' first-inning single and Gail Harris' seventh- in ning homer. 'Bill Skowron knocked in five runs with a homer, double and single and six other Yankees had two hits each m a 17-hit assault on three Baltimore pitchers. Don Larsen yielded six hits and three' runs in seven innings and then rookie Jim Coates finished up with two shutout innings. The Yankees routed loser Arnold Portocarrero in a nine-run third inning-largest major league rally of the year so far. Dick Gernert drove in two j runs with a homer and a single and Gene Stephens had two doubles to lead the Red Sox to their first win. Murray Wall yielded one hit and a run over the last three innings after taking over for winner Ike Delock. Reno Bertoia ho mered for Washington. The seven secondary open ers, in Los Angeles, San Fran cisco, Milwaukee, Baltimore, Cleveland, Chicago and Bos ton, drew a total of 299,211 fans-an average of 32,744 per game.

Pirates Purchase Giel From Giants Pittsburgh -UPD- The Pitts burgh Pirates have announced the purchase of righthanded pitcher Paul Giel from the San Francisco Giants for the waiver price. The Pirates optioned right hander Curt Raydon to Co lumbus of the International league on a 24-hour recall to make room for the former University of Minnesota All America halfback. Giel, who became a bonus baby with the Giants in'1954, showed a 4-5 record last year with two of his wins coming against the Bucs. Raydon, who carded an 8-4 record as a Pirate rookie last season, underwent surgery for a finger cyst just prior to spring training and was sent to the farm club for more conditioning. fliction. Conversely, San Di ego, which isn't very far from the influence of the Los An geles Dodgers, drew 233,691 the best season gate for the Padres since 1955. The opening day lineup of games will find: Spokane at Phoenix; Van couver at Salt Lake; Seattle at Sacramento and Portland at San Diego with the latter four clubs opening with day night doubleheaders. Phoenix Team To Beat Phoenix still the c 1 u b to beat. The Giants have a power-hitting outfield which in cludes Dusty Rhodes; talented young pitching; the loop's all star first baseman in Willie McCovey; and the league's manager of the year Red Da vis. Biggest loss from last sea son Andre Rodger s the league-leading hitter at Short stop, who moved up to the San Francisco Giants. San Diego-The Padres have good pitching in Bill Werle, Bob Alexander, Steve Ridzik and Bud Podbielan; and a top defense, keyed by the double play combination of Billy Hunter and Billy Moran. They lost power hitters Earl Ave rill and Dave Pope in trades. Vancouver This team lost four pitchers who won 41 games last season and that hurts, but Manager Charlie Metro believes Charlie Bea- mon, iiud watKins, area tie sana, Gordy Sundin, Joe Hat ten and Erv Palica can take up the slack. Good defensive outfield, but the club still needs a topflight second-short combination. Portland If the Beavers do better in the season series against Phoenix, they could be in the thick of the race. Last year they lost 19 of 22 to the Giants. They have a new tie- up with Kansas City for tal ent. George Freese at . third and shortstop Jack Littrell give the Bevos infield strength. Salt Lake Could Surprise Salt Lake The Bees could be the dark horse. Manager Larry Shephard is relying on Pittsburgh to give him the needed help to be a conten der. He goes into the campaign with a lot of rookies, but out fielder Carlos Bernier is back, to give speed and. power, along . with inf ielders Kenny Toothman and Nick Barone. Sacramento The S o 1 o n s have Elliott back as manager, in a new regime under civic ownership and a new working agreement with Milwaukee, which should help. The out field has Carlos Paula, a heavy hitter. In the infield is slick-fielding shortstop Buddy Peterson, and the veteran Nippy Jones at first. The So lons have pretty good pitching in Joe Stanka, Bill Dailey, Carl Gree and promising Braves' farm hands Terence Fox and Winston Brown. Spokane This club has Bobby Bragan as manager, and big Steve Bilko at first base. Those two alone will draw fans. The Indians have some promising pitching in Roger Craig, Bob Giallombar do, Phil Paine and Chris Ni cholosi; and a good double play combination in Tony Roig and Maury Will. Seattle Freddie Hutchin son is back, and so are dreams of a pennant, last won under "Hutch" in 1955. Fred has vet erans Jack Dittmer, Lee Fon dy and Eddie Kazak in his in field; Elmo valo and "Peanuts Lowrey in the outfield. The big question is will they hold up over the long grind. Gonzales Gets Money Lead Princeton, N.J.-flJPD-Pancho Gonzales regained the money leadership of the Jack Kramer pro tennis tour Tuesday night when he defeated Lew Hoad, 14-12, 6-3. The two were tied in money earned before the match. But Gonzales, defending pro cham pion, added $400 for his vic tory for a total of $15,050. Hoad's $200, the loser's share, increased the Australian's in come to $14,850. In another singles match, Mai Anderson whipped Ash ley Cooper' in straight sets, 6-3,. 6-3. Cooper has won $9,850 while Anderson has netted $9,750. Hoad and Cooper teamed in doubles to beat Gonzales and Anderson, 8-6, in the night's final match.

Backing Ready For Third League Cincinnati, Ohio - (UPD - Fi nancial backing for a third major baseball league is ready for the 1961 season, the Cin cinnati Post and Times-Star said in a copyrighted story by Sports Editor Pat Harmon. Harry Wismer, nationally known broadcaster, said the backers had met three weeks aog and pledged the money. Harmon wrote: "Warren Giles, president of the Nation al league,, said a week ago: 'It will be much easier to form a new eight-team major league than to expand the present leagues from eight to ten teams.' Today that third major league is closer than you think," Harmon said. Harmon said the teams in the league will be New York, Houston, Montreal, Toronto, Dallas, Minneapolis-St. Paul, and two to be selected. "The money is ready, and will go to the best location," the Post and Times-Star said. F R E E P R I Z E S Straus & Smith SPORTING GOODS Crater Lake Hwy.

(This is the second of sev eral dispatches on the lead ing Kentucky Derby candi dates.) New York -WPD- The Ken tucky Derby field often is cluttered with horses sent out to show off their owners' col ors rather than make ser ious bid for racing's most cov eted prize. ' James D. Norris, former czar of the defunct Interna tional Boxing club and owner of the Chicago Black Hawks of the National Hockey league, hardly can be ac cused of such vanity, wheth er prompted by unwarranted optimism for a desire to get box seats for America's pre mier horse race. "I could have had a lot of them over the years but they would only have made me look foolish, finishing up the track," he says. Norris had a potential Der by starter in 1953, but be cause Jamie K. was used up too much in the Wood Memor ial, Norris did not ship the colt to Kentucky. Jamie K., therefore, was fresh and ready for the preakness and Belmont stakes, second and third legs in the Triple Crown. In each race Jamie K. gave Native Dancer a rough time, finishing only a neck behind the Gray Ghost in each race. This year, however, Norris has a solid threat for. the Ken tucky Derby . at Churchill Tornado JV 2-0 Victor M e d f o r d nicked Ashland high 2 to 4 yesterday as Bob Quinney hurled a two hitter over five innings in a junior varsity baseball conflict at Ashland.

Ring Battle Plans Switched Portland-(UPD-P romoter Tommy Moyer said today he planned to take elsewhere a nationally-televised fight be tween Phil Moyer and Yama Baham'a. scheduled for April 29. Moyer announced Tuesday that the two fighters had been lined up for the televised bout here, a short ime after anoth er promoter, George Millak, said a heavy weight bout had been signed for April 27 be tween Pat McCurtry of Taco ma and Garvin Sawyer, New York. The Portland Boxing Com mission went into a huddle Tuesday night with the rival promoters to discuss the close ness of the dates. Moyer said the April 29 date was taken because Eddie Machen, who had been scheduled to appear on TV then from San Francis co, had an injured hand and had to cancel. While the com mission members went into executive session, Moyer and Sid Flaherty, Phil's manager, announced a change in plans and said the bout would be held in some other city. Corvallis (UPD The Ore gon State-Willlamette baseball game scheduled Tuesday was rained out. F R E E P R I Z E S ur Hates Threa Downs on May 2 in Easy Spur who currently is co-favorite with C. V. Whitney's Silver Spoon for the Rose Run. Norris bred his first Derby starter at his Spring Hill Farm near Lexington where Easy Spur was foaled on March 6, 1956. Easy Spur earned a trip to Louisville with a sparkling triumph in the Florida Derby at Gulfstream Park, a track at which he has done most of his winning in two years of racing. Easy" Spur, who is rather on the small side, is undefeated at the track with a five-for-five record com pared with his overall record of eight wins in 16 races. In the Florida Derby, with William Hartack riding, Easy Spur was at his best. The little gelding, like Jamie K., a son of Crowfoot but out of the mare Easy Reeling, hung up 1:47 15 for the mile and one-eighth, only two-fifths of a second off the world record. And no matter how Easy Spur fares in the first of the Triple Crown classics, nobody can question his right to be in it. Hartack probably will ride.
