knockout. Not an. early one,
but a knockout, about the

tertains, the . defending north
west champs here again this
evening. Play ball time will

Sunday victory was the
third this season by close score
for the Florists over the Maids
and Rogue Valley faces a con
siderable task in attempting
to snap the string this eve
ning. For the Erv. Lind club
will send Louise Mazzuca to
the pitching slab. The 9-year-old
Miss Mazzuca, one of , the
top twirlers in the country,
has not yielded a hit in the
27 innings she has pitched in
the league this season.
She has four league vic
tories. However, the pitching
star had to go eight innings
against the' Dairy Maids a
week ago before her team
mates came up with a run for
a 1. to .0 nod over the South
ern Oregon team.
A combination of three
overthrow errors in the
second inning produced the
first Florist run last night.
With two out Carolyn Spady
hit a bounder. Pitcher Ellen
Callaghan made a fine stop
on a tough chance but over
threw first base. The runner
went to second. Then third
baseman Diane Wall heaved
wide and high over first on a
swat by Pinion. Firse baseman
Doris Hickson's throw to try
to "catch Spady at third was
wide of the base and the run
ner tallied. - '
Montie Wallis led off the
third inning with the first of
the scant three safe socks 'the
Florists managed off Calla
ghan. Carolyn Fitzwater sac
rificed, advancing Wallis to
second. Then the runner raced
in effort to steal third. Catch
er Jean Main's throw was to
the base but shortstop Bernice
Bigham was not there in time
to take it. Wallis headed on
for home.
' Deloris 'Price and Fitzwater
slapped the other Florist hits
and Main blasted the clean
safety for Rogue Valley. All
the hits were singles. Pinion
whiffed four batters, walked
two and hit one while Calla
ghan registered one strike out
and gave up three bases on
balls. :
The Dairy Maids got run
ners on base in four innings
but only one of them got to
second base.

Billy Casper Triumphant by One
Stroke in U
By LEO H. PETERSEN
UPI Sports Editor
Mamaroneck, N.Y. - (UPD -There
are two things U.S.
Open champion Billy Casper
likes to do-eat and play golf.
He did both of them mighty
well Sunday. ..
Rotund Billy, a 29-year-old
pro playing put of Apple Val
ley, Calif., ate a hearty: lunch
at the Winged Foot Golf club
and three hours later teed off
with Lionel Hebert, leading
the Open field by : three
strokes., .
He wound up winning it by
only one. Bob Rosburg, who
uses a baseball grip, and burly
Mike Souchak, the former
football great at Duke, both
made a run at Billy. Both
came close but not close
enough. -

Medford American Legion
junior, baseball aggregation
chalked up five runs in the
fifth inning to overcome
Grants Pass Mock Ford 9 to
5 in an Area 4 southern divi
sion game yesterday afternoon
at Camp White.
The Medfordites 'reached
GP pitcher Bill Cole for nine
hits, took advantage of his
wildness and capitalized on
miscues by other Mock play
ers in gaining the victory.
Next contention for Med
ford will be a non-leaguer,
against Myrtle Creek at Camp
White on Tuesday evening.
Medford goes to Klamath
Falls on Wednesday for a
southern division mix.

of its runs in the second stan
za when Medford throwers
Jerry Anderson was plagued
by wildness. But, he settled
down and permitted Mock

noon. Singles by Sam Oetinger,
Ken Durkee and Ken Jensen,
three errors, two bases on
balls and a wild pitch were
put together in Medford's
heavy scoring fifth.

Yost, Bob Bronson and Mary
Leptich, all of Portland, won
the championship, junior-sen
ior and senior titles, respec
tively, here Sunday in the
final round of the Royal Oaks
Invitational Golf tournament.
All three won the same
titles two years ago.
Yost, ex-walker cup vete
ran, carded a 71 Sunday to
go with his 69-70 and ended

Rosburg, who wears glasses
"because it helps to see that
little white pill" (a golf ball),
and Souchak needed birdies
on the par four 18th 424-yard
hole to tie Casper.
Sweated It Out
,Billy was sweating it out
in the club house. He was
having a sandwich-he had
eaten a full course that most
people would . call a dinner
five hours before. A lot of golf
writers were grouped around
him at that breakfast and the
good-looking carefree Casper
commented:
"I hope I'll be seeing all
of you guys five hours from
now." He did-as the new U.S.
Open champion.
But in those five - hours
there was not only his game
-a four over par 36-38-74
on singles by Bob Quinney,
Dick Ragfedale, Doug Kinney
and Durkee and a hit batter.
Each team put over one
run in the third inning. For
Grants Pass Larry Janssen
tripled and came home when
Anderson had trouble fielding
a bounder by Gary Stevens.
A single by Thompson nad
three bases on balls forced
over the Pear city run.
Durkee and Jensen, with
two each, were the only play
ers with more than one safe
blow. Oetinger doubles for
Medford. Anderson walked
eight, hit one batter and
struck out seven. Cole in 5 23
innings was responsible for
all the runs. He struck out
four and walked five, hitting
two. Janssen in 113 frames
gave up one hit and one base
on balls.
Medford left three men
stranded in two of the in
nings.. '
It was the second win for
Medford over Grants Pass.
Score of a non-loop mix on
Friday was 18 to 0.

well standing between him
and victory,
First it was Souchak who
had a chance to tie him. But
burly Mike, needing a birdie,
pushed his drive on the last
hole off into the rough behind
a tree, played a miracle shot
to hit the green and then
watched disgustedly as the
ball rolled into the back
fringe. From 50 feet he
chipped weakly and the ball
was 10 feet short. He even
missed that putt.

Eddie Arca.ro''
Recuperating
New York - (UPD Eddie Ar
caro, racing's No. 1 jockey
who suffered a near fatal spill
Saturday, was back on his
feet again today, looking
hopefully to an early hospi
tal discharge probably within
a few days.
The 43 -year -old Arcaro,
thrown from his mount, Black
Hills, in the Belmont Stakes,
was ; allowed to take a few
stens today in his room at
Physicians hospital, and he
told friends that he expected
to continue riding.
However, he was a bit wob
bly and dizzy from ttie after
effects of a mild concussion
suffered in his spectacular
spill, and his personal physi
cian, Dr; Alexander Kaye,
said that he would not dis
charge Arcaro until he was
sure the famed jockey was
over his dizziness.
A crowd of 38,105 and a na-
t i o n a 1 television audience
thought Arcaro was killed
when Black Hills broke his
right shin bone while battling
for the lead in the Triple
Crown classic at Belmont
park won by the Brookmeade
stable's Sword Dancer.

'That's when I knew I had
it," said Casper, watching the
play on television.
Casper's victory put $12,000
in his pocket. Rosburg, who
got down In two for a par
four on that 18th, wound up
second, winning $6,600.
Souchak earned $3,600 for
tying with home pro Claude
Harmon for third place at 284.
Former Masters champions
Doug Focd and Arnold Palm
er, along with Ernie Vossler,
were next in line at 286.
Then came the two great
est names in golf-Ben Hogan
and Sammy Snead, both at
287.
Hogan was three strokes be
hind Casper going into the
fourth round Sunday - but
blew to a 37-39-76, six over
par. Bantam Ben was seeking
his fifth Open title and now
at 46, it looks like he won't
make it.
As for Snead-this is the
only big one in golf he never
has won-and he was four
strokes behind Casper going
into Sunday's windy round.
After Hogan shot that 76,
the 47-year-old Snead wound
up with a 37-38-75. He lost
his chance with a double
bogey on the third hole.
