i 8 MAIL TRIBUNE, Me-ford, Or. Wednesday, July 1, 1959 Don Jordan Challenger Drill Hard Portland - (UPD - Champion Don Jordan and challenger Denny Moyer continued rug ged workouts today in Port land as they rounded into shape for their July 10 world welterweight champions hip fight at Portland Meadows. Moyer's manager Sid Fla herty Tuesday called the 4-1 odds favoring Jordan "ridicu lous." Flaherty said Moyer had less trouble beating Cas par Ortega than did Jordan before the champ took the title. Moyer, in his sparring ses sions, has shown new power in clouting his sparring part ners with solid shots rather than the jabs and hooks of his usual style. At the champion i Blue Lake , park training camp, Jordan has demonstrated pow er, too. He hit one sparring mate so hard that it cracked a couple of ribs. Home Run Pays Off in i NWL Tilts J United Press International J Power paid off in North I west league play Tuesday night and for references there ! are the Tri-City Braves and the Wenatchee Chiefs.' Wenatchee took Eugene 6-4 and Tri-City nipped Salem 2-1 and in each case : it was the home run punch that got the job done. Lewiston upend ed Yakima 9-6 in the other game and again the home run figured prominently. V"' Wenatchee and Eugene were knotted at 2-2 in the top of the sixth when Mike Yaremchuck stepped ' to - the plate with the bases loaded. He belted one out of the ball park and that was it. John Orsino of the losers had a two-run homer in the second. Winning Run in 4th Tri-City got one run in the first frame on three singles and then got its eventual win ning run in the fourth inning when Jerry Clifford launched his eighth homer of the sea son. Bill Griffith went the route for Tri-City and held Salem to four hits to take his sec ond win of the year. Lewiston got out in front with three runs in the, first inning on a three-run homer by Chico Heron and went on to top Yakima. Bob Sutton went the route to post his' eighth decision of the year. ' Charley Smith of Yakima hit a solo homer in the fourth inning. Yanks Lose Events at Helsinki Helsinki, Finland (UPD American world record-holders Bob Gutowski and Al Can--llo were outclassed Tuesday i the concluding events of a two-day international track and field meet.

Stitch -Opposes Sawyer Tonight Louisville, Ky. -UPD- Deacon Rudell Stitch risks his status as Louisyille's rapidly devel oping contender for the wel terweight title tonight against unranked but dangerous Rudy Sawyer. ) ' Stitch, ranked No. 2 among the welterweight challengers by the NEA since his victory over Caspar Ortega in May, was a solid 2 to 1 favorite over the New York fighter because of his punch, and aggressive ness. I Sam Game in By MILTON RICHMAN United Press International Sad Sam Jones missed pitching the second no-hitter of his career by -the slender margin of one of those tooth picks he always chews ap proximately the same narrow margin that now separates the San Francisco Giants from first place in the National league. For 7 23 innings, Jones turned back the Dodgers with out a hit Tuesday night and had visions of duplicating the Spokane Indians Go Into 3rd Place by Trimming Portland By United Press International Chuck Churn gave up only six hits Tuesday night as he pitched his second shutout of the season and Spokane moved into third place in the Pacific Coast league with a 4-0 vic tory over the Portland Beav ers now in fifth place. The game opened a three-game series here. - . 1 . Only two Portland runners reached as far as third against the 200-pound righthander. They were .Russ Snyder , in the seventh and "Jim Green grass in the eighth. . It was Churn's sixth win of the year against only one loss. It was ' the ninth shutout of the year for the Indian mound staff., . ' The game was scoreless until the fourth. Then Spo kane scored when Don Dom enichelli singled home Chuck Essegian. ' ' Steve Bilko followed two innings later with a solo home run and two more runs were scored in the seventh , and eighth on a single by Bob Lillis and a double by Kuno Barragan. Churn allowed only one walk. George Brunet was the loser, his seventh. He worked six and two-thirds innings. The Sacramento Solons have lost more games ihan they've won in the past month but they've managed to in crease their Pacific Coast league lead. It's simply a case of a tight league where all the teams Johansson Honored by Magazine New York UPD Sweden's Ingemar Johannson was named 'Fighter of the Month" today by the Ring magazine because of Friday's heavy weight title victory over Floyd Patterson, now rated con tender. Johansson will get a cham pionship "gold" belt from Ring. Ex-challenger Roy Harris of Cut'N Shoot, Tex., jumped back into the rankings at number six because of his easy win over Charlie Powell of San Diego, Calif., who dropped from sixth to eighth. joe isrsKine of Wales, vic tor over Dick Richardson, moved up a peg to eighth. Willie Pastrano of Miami Beach fell from seventh to ninth because of inactivity. Alonzo Johnson' of Braddock, Pa., latest conqueror of ' Cu ban Nino Valdes, is rated 10th; but Valdes dropped out of the top 10. In the light-heavyweight di vision,. Canadian Yvon Du- relle replaced Harold Johnson of Philadelphia . as top con tender. Johnson ' dropped to second place because of inac tivity. Robinson Recognised . The Ring continues to rec ognize Sugar Ray Robinson as middleweight champion, although the National Boxing association reaffirmed last week that his title has been vacated. Among welterweights, ex champion Virgil Akins sank .from top contender to third because of his defeat by Cu ban Luis Rodriguez, who en tered the high group at 10th. Sugar Hart of Philadelphia is ranked first; Denny " Moyer of Portland, Ore., second. Carlos Ortiz of New York replaced Kenny Lane of Mus kegon, Mich., as top light weight contender because of his kayo win over Kenny in their junior welterweight title fight. Lane' is rated second. In .the featherweight class, Ricardo Gonzalez of Argen tina advanced a notch to num ber two, trading places with Flash Elorde of the Philip pines. Similarly, Joe Becerra of Mexico replaced Piero Hol lo of Italy as top bantam weight contender. Rollo was held to a draw by Juan Gar denas of Spain. . . Jones hisses No-Hit Giants' l no-hit, no-run game he hurled against the Pirates as a mem ber of the Cubs on May 12, 1955. But with two out in the eighth, Junior Gilliam wrecked those visions when he beat out an infield roller that was ruled a hit even though shortstop Andre Rodg ers had trouble finding the handle on the ball. That was the only Dodger hit of the game and the Giants won, 2-0, to move within a half-game of the first-place take turns beating each other while the Solons stay in first place on the strength' of then- fast start. A month ago, the Solons had won 13 more games than they had lost and held only a game and a half lead over second place San. Diego. But now, having won only 12 more games than they have lost, the Sacs have a comfort bulga over second place Van couver. Seattle Wins 6-5 The Solons got some typical help Tuesday night though they themselves didn't play I Last place Seattle dropped the Mounties. 6-5 in 11 innings. Seventh place Phoenix belted San Diego, 11-5 and Spokane, the newest in a line of Solon challengers, moved into third place with a 4-0 win over the fading Portland Beavers. At San Diego, Willie Mc Covey and Bill Wilson each drove in three runs for Phoe nix as the Giants unlimbered for 14 hits. Roger McCardell and Jose Pagan homered for the Giants. Don Hyman, who relieved starter Joe Shipley, was cred ited with the win. Russ He man, victim of five runs in the third inning, was charged with the loss. Young southpaw Claude Osteen went all the way for Seattle while striking out 13. The Rainiers got the win ning run in the 11th when Paul Pettit led off with a booming triple to left center. After a popout and a walk, Jake Jenkins hit a dribbler along the first base line and Pettit, the one-time ,$100,000 bonus baby, scampered across with , the winning' run. f Pettit. had earlier hit a home run for the Rainiers and Ron Hansen and Barry She trone hit for the- circuit for the Mounties. Dick Luebke, the third Vancouver pitcher, was tagged for the loss. LINESCORES: Phoenix 005 200 040 11 14 1 San Diego ....000 100 121 5 9 0 Shipley. Hyman (5).

Southpaw Har vey Haddix gained his fifth victory against six losses al though ace reliever Roy Face came into the game in the ninth and squelched a final Philadelphia threat. Gene Freese homered for the Philas. Larry Jackson hurled a four hitter for the Cardinals as they moved to within a game of fifth place by their triumph over the Cubs. The Cards stole six bases and were aided by two Chicago errors. High light of the game was a long controversy that resulted when two baseballs somehow were in play during the third inning.' Home runs by Vic Power and Rocky Colavito plus the fine four-hit pitching of.Cal McLish paced the Indians to their win over the second place White Sox. The Yankees finally beat Hoyt Wilhelm of the Orioles in moving to within a half game of third place. They clinched the game with three runs in the third, Yogi Berra, singling home two of them.

Although the 38-year-old St. Louis Cardinals stir re ceived only three votes in the major leaguers' balloting for the starting positions, Haney felt "old pro" Musial would be a handy man to have on the bench for the July 7 All Star game at Pittsburgh. And if there were any sen timent involved, who could begrudge the honor to Stan-The-Man, who . has been a prominent fixture in 16 con secutive All-Star classics. No other player has partcipated in as many. In those 16 games, Musial compiled a .315 bat ting average and holds the All-Star records for home, runs (five), hits (17) and total bases (34). Marciano May Make Comeback New York - (UPD - Rocky Marciano will begin test training next week for a Eu ropean tour that's expected to include some sparring exhibi tions and possibly lead to a comeback, it was learned to day. , - He'll fly to Europe late this month. The 33-year-old "Brockton blockbuster," who retired un defeated on April 27, 1956, has been issuing denials that he plans to return to the ring. It's true: He won't come back if he can't get into satis factory condition. He now weights 220 pounds, almost 32 more than his 188, when he last defended the world heavyweight crown 'on a ninth-round knockout over Archie Moore, Sept. 21, 1955. If he can pare " down and get "sharp" again, there's a good chance he may chal lenge next June against the winner of the September re turn bout between champion Ingemar Johansson and ex champ Floyd Patterson. Mrs. Lowd Pin Titlist In Singles Claudia Lowd was singles champion in the Southern Oregon Handicap tournament completed last Sunday at Med ford Bowling lanes. She had a 637 total. Her score was inadvertently listed as 627 by the lanes. Polly Greenfield, Roseburg, was second with 635.

In picking the seven NL pitchers, Haney tapped Lew Burdette (11-6) and Warren Spahn (10-8), the two aces from his own Milwaukee staff; Elroy Face of the Pitts burgh Pirates, who has won 12 games in relief without a loss: Don Drysdale (8-5) of the Los Angeles Dodgers, Johnny Antonelli (11-4) of the Giants, Vinegar Ben Mizell (9-3) of the. Cards, and Gene Conley (5-4) of the Phildelphia Phil lies. . Haney picked the staff after studying recommenda tions from the seven other league managers. The seven Ditchers have a combined. record of 66 victories and 30 defeats. Favored Poll Leaders For reserves, Haney gen eraly favored those players who finished second in tne major leaguers' poll. The only exceptions were Musial and shortstop Dick Groat of the Pittsburgh Pirates, who was chosen over voting runner up Roy McMillan of the Reds. In addition to Musial and Groat, the infield reserves are Robinson, Ken Boyer of the Cardinals and Bill Ma zeroski of the Pirates. The starting infield will be Ce peda at first, Johnny Temple of Cincinnati at second, Ernie Banks of the Chicago Cubs at short and Ed Mathews of the Braves at third. The three outfield stand bys picked by Haney were joe Cunningham and Bill White of the Cards and Vada Pinson of the Reds. The NL's starting outfield will be Hank Aaron of the Braves, Willie Mays of the Giants and Wally Moon of the Dodgers. Catchers Smoky Burgess of the Pirates arid Hal Smith of the Cards were chosen as re serves for starter Del Cran dall of Milwaukee. The Cards thus had the biggest representation on the team, with six players. The Braves placed five men, the Pirates four, the Giants and Reds three each, the Dodger two, and the Cubs and Phils one each. Cincinnati.

SF Pitcher More Sad Than Usual By ALEX KAHr Los Angeles-flJPD- Sad Sam Jones was sadder1 than usual today as he and the San Fran cisco Giants left town con vinced that the hurler had been robbed of a no-hit game against the Los Angeles Dodgers by a scorer's ruling. Jones had to be content with a one-hit 2-d victory be fore a huge crowd of 59,312. The veteran hurler's at tempt at the second no-hitter of his career was nipped Tuesday night by ' Jim Gil liam's slow roller past the mound in the eighth inning. It was bobbled momentarily by Giant shortstop Andre Rodgers and by the time he got the ball to first, Gilliam was saf e. - ' Charlie Park .of the Los Angeles Mirror News, the of ficial scorer, without hesita tion raised his forefinger in the press box to indicate a single. A groan went up from the huge crowd in the coliseum that had turned out to root for the home club and instead was intent on seeing what ap peared to be the first no-hitter in the history of major league baseball' here. The Giants won the game, but that didn't satisfy the 28-year-old hurler, who threw a 4-0 no-hitter for the Chica go' Cubs against the Pitts burgh Pirates on May 12, 1955. Tears stood in Jones' eyes as he went first to the San Francisco radio booth in the press box and then to the Los Angeles Dodgers' booth to be interviewed. Jones Storms Park went over to explain to Jones he was the man who ruled Gilliam's grounder a hit. . "I don't think it was a hit no matter what you called it," Jones stormed as he brushed aside Park.. "I thought Rodgers should have had the ball," he added. "I threw a curve at Gilliam. I knew all the time I had a no-hitter going. And 1 1 was getting stronger as the game went along." Park however, said that if the same situation presented itself he would again have to rule it a hit. "Why don't you buy your self another scorekeeper," Jones said as he stormed into the shower. In the Giants' dressing room, Rodgers said he felt he bobbled the ball sufficiently for it to have been called an ' j P23 Kt Bourbon T- fell JWhisky Enjoy the true old-style .
