Braves Take Fifth
In Row From Pirates
By JOHN GRIFFIN
United Pressjnlernalional
The Cincinnati Reds are
refusing to play dead for the
Milwaukee Braves any more,
but the Braves have found a
brand new bunch of "cousins"
-the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Remember how the Braves
marched to the National
League pennant in 1957 by
rolling up an amazing 18-4
mark against the Reds in their
season series? And repeated
last year by beating the Reds
17 times .against only five
losses?
Now they're doing the same
thing to the Pirates. A 5-2
Milwaukee triumph Monday
that boosted the Braves back
into second place was their
Backer Up
Role Seen
For Plumley
Oregon State College, Cor
vallis - One exceptional line
man missing, but still plenty
of good ones around to help
take up the slack.
That's Oregon State's foot
ball picture in the middle of
the line - a strategic spot
where games often are won or
lost.
The man missing, of course,
is all-America tackle Ted
Bates, one of the truly great
. linemen ever produced here.
He made everybody's team.
His starting right tackle slot
will go to dependable Howard
Hogan, who has served as un
derstudy to Bates the past
two years. Hogan should be
ready as a senior to assume
the big responsibility, and he's
backed up by sophomore Neil
Plumley (of Medford) and let-J
terman Earl Woodward.
At left tackle is Big Ed Kao
helaulii, possibly the best line
man on the entire squad. He
was good enough to be a regu
lar last year, but showed in
spring drills he's reached full
maturity now. Sophomores
Mike Kline and Guy SimtSr
son, a couple of hefties, go
behind Kaohelaulii, but they
lack the experience so neces
sary. Depth at Guards
Oregon State conceivably
could have its best depth at
the guard positions since
Coach Tommy Prothro took
over the reins here in 1955.
Sonny Sanchez, at starting left
guard, has the ability and
speed to become one of the
really good ones. At right
guard, George (Deacon) Ender
le proved his true worth in
spring drills. Both are to be
seniors.
Two lettermen holdovers
spell depth behind Sanchez.
Dennis Brundage and Mike
Dolby are the pair, and both
have experience, though the
latter missed most of spring
practice because of a bad
knee.
A couple of promising soph
omores are ready to back up
Enderle at right guard. One
is John Cadwell, the other
Webb Johnson. Both have a
lot of ability, but of course
will miss that experience. .In
any event, the depth at both
guard positions is better than
it was a year ago.
Clinics Conducted . .
Meanwhile, OSC officials
keep busy in anticipation of
another successful season
ahead. The coaching staff
spends much of the summer
reviewing films, scouting all
star high school games and
evaluating personnel. Prothro
has conducted several clinics
throughout the nation.
Jim Barratt's ticket office
has been busy accepting ticket
application orders, too. Ore
gon State has another good
home slate ahead, starting off
with a September 19 evening
opener against the powerful
Southern Calif ornian Trojans
in Portland. Corvallis games
include Idaho, Washington
State and Stanford, while the
OSC-Oregon game this year
will be played at Eugene.
Advance ticket sales gener
ally have been good, with
chief interest centered around
the USC tilt. Reserved seat
prices are $4 for that game
and $3.50 for each of the three
Corvallis encounters. All ap
plications should be sent to
Coliseum 103, Corvallis.
10th in 13 games with Pitts
burgh this year, the last five
wins in a row.
Braves Sweep Five
This win on Joey Jay's five
hit pitching climaxed a five
game series sweep that really
saved the Braves' bacon. The
champs stumbled into this se
ries with eight losses in their
last 10 games but a visit from
the new "cousins" got them
healthy again quick. Now
they're only a game-and-a-half
behind the league-leading San
Francisco Giants.
Ronnie Kline of the Pirates
had the Braves blanked, 2-0,
until Milwaukee scored all its
five runs in the seventh inning
in a rally that featured Bob
by Avila's two-run triple. The
loss was the seventh straight
for the Pirates, who now have
skidded into the second divi
sion. In the only other National
league game Monday, Cincin
nati downed St. Louis, 8-3.
In the American league, Bos
ton blanked Cleveland, 4-0,
to drop the Indians back into
a first-place tie with idle Chi
cago; Gene Woodling's slug
ging led Baltimore to a 5-2
win over Detroit; and Kansas
City scored its eighth straight
win, 7-6, over Washington.
Temple Homers
Johnny Temple's three-run
homer led the Reds' 11-hit at
tack as they beat the Cards.
Bob Purkey scattered nine
Card hits to gain his ninth
win.
Rookie Jerry Casale pitched
a three-hitter for the Red Sox
to beat the Indians, snapping
the Red Sox' six-game losing
streak and the Indians' five
game winning streak.
. Woodling drove in all of the
Orioles' five runs with a sin
gle and the first grand slam
he's hit in 13 years in the ma
jors. His bases-full blast off
Jim Bunning of Detroit in
the third inning was the 27th
homer served up by Bunning
this year.
Roger Maris hit a grand
slam homer for the A's in
their win over the Senators,
but actually Kansas City's
pair of winning runs in the
eighth inning were unearned,
thanks to an error by Ken
Aspromonte. Harmon Kille
brew's 33rd homer, tops in
the majors, and a grand slam
by Faye Throneberry couldn't
save the Senators from their
ninth straight defeat.

service last night making the
establishment the largest such
facility in operation in Oregon
or Washington.
The 16 new alleys at the
lanes actually were put in use

the other two sets of alleys
were idle at different periods
since for resurfacing.
Proprietor Fred Anderson

and open house for the ex
panded establishment has been
set fof Wednesday, Aug. 5. In
conjunction with that event
event Andy (The Great) Vari

been termed the world's great
est trick shot artist.
Larger Lunch Facilities
Expansion at Medford lanes
includes enlarged luncheon
facilities, not yet complete,
and a nursery, not yet in op
eration. The luncheon counter
and booths will accommodate
68 people.
The 16 newest alleys are in
a 115 by 120-foot addition.
Medford lanes originally was
built as a 12-lane facility to
which 10 lanes later were
added.
Ten of the 22 lanes were
closed July 18 for resurfacing
and were reopened on July
22. The other 12 were shut
down after that and were open

McCovey Hits 29th
As PCL Clubs Split
By DON BECKER
' United Press International
Up and down the Pacific
Coast league they're saying
big Willie McCovey is the guy
who's going to, knock Orlando
Cepeda off first base for the
San Francisco Giants.
The 21-year-old McCovey is
leading the PCL in every ma
jor batting department. He's
hitting .377, has 29 homers
and 93 rbi's.
"They're going to have to
move Cepeda to third or the
Metro All-Stars
Eye Opportunity
To Even State
Portland The Metropolitan
all-stars will have a chance
to "even the statistics" when
they clash with a team of
State all-stars in the 12th an
nual Shriners' hospital foot
ball game here Aug. 15.
The Metros have Been catch
ing up the past two years,
after six years 1951 through
1956 without, a victory. Best
the Metros could do during
that period was a 7 to 7 tie
in 1955, and their worst per
formance was a 50 to 0 loss
inl954.
"Thanks to a 28 to 7 win in
1957 and a surprisingly easy
32 to 7 win last year, the
Metros have almost evened
the score with their State riv
als. The record now stands at 6
wins for the Staters as against
4 for the Metros, plus the
single tie. The Staters have
scored 163 points, the Metros
144, giving the former an av
erage of 14.75 per game and
the latter, 13.1 points.
Wide Open Play
Evidence of the wide-open
play that has characterized
the game since its inception in
1948 is the 28 point per game
combined scoring average.
Qualified observers predict
that this year's contest will
be the highest scoring affair
to date. They base their fore
cast on the fact that both
squads are "loaded" with
backs who can gallop and
quarterbacks who can throw.
These same observers be
lieve that last year's crop of
high school seniors was one
of the best in recent years,
and their opinions are sub
stantiated by the college
coaches of the area who have
shown keen interest in a great
er number of players than
ever before in recent history.
Police Captain Eugene W.
Ferguson, the game's manag
ing director, said advance
ticket sales for the colorful
contest have prompted' the
committee to anticipate the
largest crowd ever.
More than 40,000 foreign
students study in the United
States colleges every year.
outfield," says one veteran
PCL scribe. "McCovey's that
good. He's too big, and a little
too awkward to play any
where else but first."
Smacks 29th Homer
The 6-4, " 198-pound Mc
Covey cracked his 29th hom
er Monday night as Phoenix
won the opening game of a
twin bill with Spokane, 5-4.
Spokane won the second tilt,
7-5.' The only other action
saw Vancouver and Salt Lake
split a pair of 2-1 games.
By reason of Vancouver's
split, the Sacramento Solons
took back sole possession of
first place by one percentage
point.
Jim Baumer delivered a
two-run single in the fifth in
ning to give Salt Lake it's
opening game victory over
Vancouver. The blow broke
up; a tight pitching duel be
tween Salt Lake's Ed Bauta
and Chuck Estrada. Both
teams collected only four hits
in the seven inning contest.
Estrada came back in the
second game to pick up the
win in relief. Estrada, who is
now 8-3, pitched only the
ninth inning in relief of start
er Fred Besana. But the
Mounties scored in the top of
the 10th when Marv Breed
ing singled infield and went
to third on losing pitcher Jim
Umbricht's error. Ray Barker
then singled home Breeding.
Connie Johnson set the Bees
down in the bottom of the
10th.
Wind Aids Giants
A wind-blown double by
third sacker J.' Van Noy gave
Phoenix the opener against
Spokane. Marshall Renfroe
went the route for the Giants,
and Bob Speake and Al Steig
litz hit - homers for Phoenix
along with McCovey.
A ninth-inning homer by
Tony Roig gave Spokane the
second game. Phoenix made
five errors during the loosely
played contest. The Giants got
homers off the bats of Roger
McCardell, Owen Friend and
Bill Wilson, but the errors
were more significant than
the distance belting.
Bud Watkins was charged
with the loss, only his second
in nine decisions since joining
the Giants. Lloyd Merritt was
credited with his first PCL
win while working in relief
for the Indians.

she faced.
Barron To Pitch
Coach Shy Callaghan said
yesterday that he planned to
start Pat Barron on the pitch
