I MAIL TRIBUNE, M4forI. Or. Friday, Jun 12, 1959 Giant-Phil Series Has Daffy End ,, Philadelphia (UPD The San Francisco Giants rolled in here for a four game series against the Phillies tonight and it was hard to tell if they were coming from Brooklyn or Pittsburgh. That error packed, daffy contest the Giants played with the Pirates Thursday had all the earmarks of one of those patented Ebbets Field specials. Pittsburgh cctnmitted seven errors and still won the game, 12-9. The Giants made five mis cues. It was a screwy wrapup to one of the wildest series of the year. Mike McCormick, 3-5, is expected to take the mound tonight for the Giants against former Giant Ruben Gomez, 1-3, who was defeated by his old teammates earlier this season. Lead Thrown Away v i Thursday's loss to the Pi rates evened the Giants', road mark at 6-6. San Francisco got off to a 5-0 lead in the 8 ' second inning but it managed to .lose that. Jack Sanford, the' starting Giant hurler left the game in the second in ning when he was clipped on the right hand by a pitch by Bob Friend. There were no broken bones. Five other Gi ant pitchers followed. Willie Kirkland smashed two homers for the Giants and Willie Mays came in as "a pinch hitter in the eighth and gave the San Franciscans and 8-7 lead with a three-run homer. That lead that lasted only minutes. The Pirates Jumped on Stu Miller in the bottom of the eighth for five - runs and that was it. But there was plenty of excitement. Of the 12 errors, , five were muffed pop flies. Two boots by shortstop Andre Rodgers proved costly to the Giants. His first paved the way for two Pirate runs in the seventh and his second aided the five run Pittsburgh rally in the eighth.

Pierce Robbed ot No-Hitter, But Paseual Hard Luck Hurler By MILTON RICKMAN United Press International That's two no-hitters Wash ington now has loused up for Billy Pierce but if you think he s pitching in tough luck, get a load of poor Camilo Paseual. Pierce, at least, wound up with a one-hitter as the first- place White Sox beat the Sen ators, 3-1, Thursday night. Paseual, his mound oppon ent, wound up talking to him self after losing his third straight game with two out in the ninth inning. One look atthe log of Pas- cual's last three losses is enough to convince anyone the Washington right-hander is the No. 1 candidate for the hard-luck pitcher of the year, He had the Yankees shut out with two out in the ninth on May 31 when Bill Skow- ron beat him with a three- run homer. Last week, the Tigers also beat him with two out in the ninth, and Thursday night Jim Landis beat him with two out in the ninth by hitting a two- run double. So Pierce really has no complaints. The White Sox lefty had a perfect game against the Sen ators with two out in the ninth last June 27 when pinch hitter EdFitzgerald, now with Cleveland, broke up the no- hitter with a double. Samford Was The Culprit Ron Samford was the cul prit Thursday night. His third inning, double was the only hit Pierce -allowed en route to his seventh victory. Pierce retired the next 'two batters, then walked three in a row to force in Washington's only run. Rocky Colavito, still going strong after his four homers Wednesday night, doubled home the winning run in the eighth inning Thursday mght to boost Cleveland into second place with a 2-1 triumph over Baltimore. The Athletics dumped the Yankees back into second division with a 9-5 lick ing and the Tigers ripped the Red Sox, 8-1, in other Ameri can league games. Milwaukee widened its Na tional league lead to , two games with an 8-0 victory over St. Louis; Pittsburgh beat San Francisco, 12-9; Los Angeles crushed Philadelphia, 11-0, and Cincinnati mauled Chicago, 8-0. . Colavito connected for bis game winning two-bagger off Milt Pappas after Woodie Held opened the eighth inning with a walk. Winner Don Ferrarese held the Orioles to seven hits and enabled the Indians to move a half-game ahead of Baltimore, which dropped to third place. Hadley Got Homer Kansas 'City raked an old nemisis, Bob Turley, for seven runs and 10 hits in four in nings to rbeaV the Yankees. Kent Hadley's two-run homer highlighted a five-run fifth in ning rally by. the A's, who beat Turley for only the third time in his career against 16 losses to him. Ned Garver posted his fifth victory al though he gave up homers to Norm Siebern, Marv Thorne berry and Mickey Mantle, and finally yielded to Russ Meyer in the ninth. Ray Narleski limited the Red Sox to five hits in help ing the Tigers climb to with in a half-game of third place. The only run Narlesky per mitted was Ted Williams' second homer of the season in the sixth. Al Kaline, Larry CUuCRETEC? Osborne and Red Wilson hit homers in Detroit's 15-hit at tack. The Braves snapped the Cardinals' three-game win ning streak with a 12-hit of fensive that included home runs by Casey Wise and Del Crandall. Bob Buhl hurled a five-hitter and struck out eight in winning his sixth game. Wilmer Mizell, the loser, now is 7-3. . Face Wins Ninth The Pittsburgh - San Fran cisco game was a comedy of errors with a total of 12 mis cues. Pittsburgh committed seven and San Francisco five, but the two that hurt most were the ones made by Giant Shortstop Andre Rodgers. His first error paved the way for two unearned runs in the seventh and his second helped the Pirates to two more in the eighth when they scored five runs to go ahead. Reliever Roy Face won his ninth straight game without a loss and his 14th in a row dating back to last year even though he was tagged for a three-run homer by pinch hit ter Willie Mays. Southpaw Johnny Podres of the Dodgers held the Phillies to two hits in win ning his seventh game of the season and fifth straight. Podres struck out seven, walked three and never per mitted a runner to get as far as second. He also contributed three of the Dodgers' 19 hits. Don Demeter drove' in five runs with a pair of homers and two singles. Robin Rob erts was the loser.

Grants Pass and Medford were to meet late this after noon in a non-league twilight tussle at Grants Pass. While other members of the division, Central Point, Lake view, Klamath Falls and Grants Pass, have each play ed a number of contests, both counting and non-counting, Medford was inaugurating Le gion play this afternoon. The long high school season for the local players is the reason for the late start. A number of the Legion, squad members were on the Black Tornado crew which reached" state A-l school semi-finals. Tom Marier is handling the Legionnaires tern porarily while coach John Kovenz is "resting up", from the high school season. As of yester day, not all the players ex pected to be on hand for the Legion slate had turned out. Among those who were out, however were Bob Quinney, Jim Barry, Lowell and Cal vin Dean, Dick Ragsdale, Ray Konopasek, Ray Stewart, Pat McLaughlin, Doug Kinney and Sam Oetinger. Team manager Keegan i Townsend said, that each of the players on the squad is individually sponsored , by a business but that the post is still looking for a "grand sponsor" for funds for equip ment, travel ; and other ex penses anticipated.

IOC Clarifies Chinese Stand For Congress Washington-(UPD-The organ izing committee for the 1960 winter Olympics, emphasized to Congress today that Na tionalist China has-and Red China has not-been invited to participate in the compe tion at Squaw Valley, Calif. The committee's position was set fourth in a telegram sent to " several members of Congress. The committee said the re cent action of the Internation al Olympic Committee (IOC) in regard to Nationalist China created an erroneous impres sion. ' At a May 26 meeting in Munich,. Germany, the IOC withdrew recognition of the Chinese National Olympic committee, with headquarters in Taipei, on grounds that this ' group did not control sports on the China mainland. Name Only The action was to with draw recognition of the name only and not to expel Na tionalist China from the IOC, the organizing committee said. However, the action in ef fect opened the door for Red China to re-apply for IOC membership. - But it is not now a member. Robert L.

Dairy Maids Tussle Florists on Camp White - Rogue Valley Dairy Maids take on one of the nation's outstanding wom en's softball aggregations when they oppose the Erv Lind Florists at Memorial stadium here on Sunday and Monday evenings, June 14 and 15, in Northwest Major league contention. The Florists have a long history of high caliber ball and and championship play while the Maids, boosted by their Oregon state crown last year, are just taking hold in fast competition. Close games with the Port landers last week end have bolstered the Rogue Valley team for '- the forthcoming series and, while their show ing against the Florists were good, they hope to improve on them in the tussles on the home field here. Lind won the previous games 3 to 0 and 1 to 0 and had to go an extra inning to nab the second game. . Held World Togas The Florists were world champions in 1944 of the American Softball association and in 1953 of the National Softball congress.

He is one of the leading catchers in men's softball. No charge for admission to the 8 p.m. games at the Vet erans Administration field is made. But a collection will be taken as is the usual custom at the stadium. This money is used to defray expenses and the Maids would welcome lib eral financial support from the fans. Cool weather cut down the ' crowds for their first league action at home, and the collection was small for the size of the crowd at their second series here. United Press International The two undefeated North west Women's Major Softball league teams face their stiff est tests of the first half committee - for the winter games, said the recent action of the IOC "does not make Red China a member of that body" and that "they cannot and will not participate" in the winter games. m It's Public .
