Warren Spahn, his 250th
victory in the record book,
may be the top-winning left
hander in National league his
tory by the end of the season.
Spahn became the 25th
pitcher ever to reach the 250-
mark when he hurled the Mil
waukee Braves to a 3-2 vic
tory over the St. Louis Car
dinals Wednesday night. Carl
Hubbell with 253 wins and
Eppa Rixey with 266 are the
only National league lefties
ahead of him and above them
are only American leaguers
Lefty Grove with 300 and Ed
die Plank with 324.
At 38, Spahn has had a bit
of trouble getting started this
year but he picked on one of
his favorite "cousins Wed
nesday night. Spahn has scor
ed two of his 1959 wins over
the Cardinals and has a 53-
29 lifetime edge over them.
The victory lifted the
Braves back into first place
when the Pittsburgh Pirates
downed the Los Angeles Dod
gers, 6-4, in a two-run eighth
inning homer by Dick Stuart.
The San Francisco Giants beat
the Philadelphia Phillies, 6-0,
and the Chicago Cubs whip
ped the Cincinnati Reds, 10-0,
in the other National league
games. The Chicago White Sox
downed the Boston Red Sox,
4-0, in the only American
league activity.
Bruton Provides Edge
Spahn got the run he need
ed to beat Larry Jackson
when Bill Bruton homered
with two out in the eighth
inning. Alex Grammas had
nicked Spahn for a two-run
double in the second inning
but the Braves tied the score
in the fourth on a walk,
tingles by Eddie Mathews and
Wes Covington, an infield out
and Del , CrandaLTs sacrifice
fly.
Stuart's winning homer for
Pittsburgh overcame a 4-3
Dodger lead which resulted
from Don Demeter's eighth
homer of the season. Elroy
Face, the Pirates brilliant,
195-pound reliever, took over
in the seventh inning and
gained credit for his fifth
straight victory. The loser
was Don Drysdale, who yield
ed eight hits in seven innings.
Smoky Burgess had three hits
and started the game-winning
rally with a single.
Sets Season High
. Sam Jones struck out an
NL season high of 12 batters
with a brilliant two-hitter for
the Giants who clinched mat
ters early by scoring five runs
in the first inning. Willie
Mays three-run homer was
the big blow of that frame
and Leon Wagner homered in
the third. Jones had a no-hitter
until, Willie Jones beat out
a bleeder in the seventh. Gene
Freese singled cleanly for ttie
other "Philadelphia hit in the
eighth. The victory moved the
Giants into third place. -

Perez Tosses No-Hit, No-Run
Victory Over Sacramento Nine
BY DON BECKER
United Press International
Salt Lake's George Perez,
a husky 22-year-old right
hander who has seen limited
action and little success so
far this season, was just a
hair short of being perfect
Wednesday night.
Perez humiliated league
heading Sacramento on a
brilliant no-run, no-hitter, in
which only one Solon saw the
light of first base.
The Pittsburgh Pirate farm
hand, who had a 7-4 record
for Salt Lake last year, struck
Tornado Approaches Full
Strength for District
Tangle at Grants Pass
We are planning to go
over there to win."
That declaration concerning
Medford high aims at the Dis
trict 6 A-l track meet was
made to Kiwanis club mem
bers yesterday by Dean Ben
son, head coach of the Black
Tornado spikers. Benson, as
sistant coach Lee Ragsdale
and 15 members of the track
squad were guests at the noon
luncheon of the Kiwanians at
Rogue Valley Country club.
The district meet will be
Saturday at Grants Pass and
the host Cavemen will be
Medford's chief rivals for top
honors. ' '
Benson emphasized the Tor
nado desire to beat Grants
Pass and said the squad is
looking forward to the meet.
After a season of trouble with
with sickness and injuries, the
Medford crew is approaching
full strength, Benson reported,
He asserted that "Grants Pass
is going to have a little bit
to worry about.
The mentor spoke of the
closeness of competition be
tween the two schools and
described the two teams as
evenly matched. Benson said
that his Tornado squad is "a
fine group of competitors
and that he is proud of them
although their record has not
looked too outstanding.
One worry for the Tornado
this week is Mike Murray,
the coach stated. Murray, top
prep shot putter in Oregon,
has been sick and his avail
ability for Saturday is uncer
tain. ; r -
A series of AAU track
meets are - planned on the
Medford high field this sum
mer, Benson said. He added
Buffalo Bisons
Release Easter
. Buffalo, N. Y.- (DPD -Duke
Easter, one-time slugging first-
baseman of the Cleveland In
dians, has received his out
right release from the Buffalo
Bisons of the International
league.
Easter, 37, hit 93 homers
in a little more than four
seasons with the Indians in
cluding a top single-season to
tal of 31 in 1952. He knocked
in 107 runs in 1950 for his
top big league total.
With the Bisons, Easter hit
114 homers and drove in 349
tallies . in three full seasons
and part of a fourth.

has been doing for a number
of years to build up, the
coach pointed out.
Track on Way Back
Ragsdale, who is supervisor
of health, physical education
and safety in the Medford
schools, said he felt that track
and field here is on its way
back after last year's lean sea
son which followed many
championship years. He noted
the "same old spirit" among
the athletes this year.
A change is taking place in
track in the entire state, Rags
dale noted. Other schools, who
hadn't before, are taking the
sport more seriously. Their
programs &iow that "they had
the boys there all the tim?'
Ragsdale brought out that
Oregon now is not taking a
back seat nationally. On the
local front, "we have to work
harder," he said.
Crater, Ashland and Klam
ath Falls will enter the com
petition along with Medford
and Grants Pass. Each of the
three has some challengers for
individual Jaurels. , ..

Since then, Doby has bounc

It was Dusty Rhodes night
in Phoenix Wednesday even
ing and the Giants celebrated
the affair by scraping off the
cobwebs which have been
gathering on their bats for the
past ' week by walloping 20
hits. Rhodes, who is now with
the : San Francisco Giants
where he is batting a cool
1.000 in one appearance at the
plate, wasn't at the -celebration.

his 32nd birthday. Rhodes'
wife, Mimi, accepted the gifts.

the call to the Giants if he
keeps up his hitting, belted
and 5 for the season as he
raised his average over the
320 mark. Willie McCovey,
Owen Friend and Benny Val
enzuela also drilled homers
for the overdue Giants.
