A Great New Shopping Adventure Is in Store for You! Watch for it! ml wk Banks, Wall Roundtrippers llolp Chicago Stall Giants By NORMAN MILLER United Press International The Chicago Cubs are banking on Ernie Banks to achieve one of the most unique three-ply feats in National league history. 'At the rate that he's been pounding the ball, Ernie could wind up the NL's biggest RBI producer in 22 years, break his own homer record for shortstops, and become the first man ever to win the league's most valuable player award two straight seasons. All this and help the Cubs finish in the first division for the first time since 1946. Ignoring a bruised back, Banks hit a two-run first-inning homer and Lee Walls followed with , a three-run fourth-inning blast that gave the Cubs a 5-4 victory over the league-leading San Fran cisco Giants Sunday. The triumph prevented the Giants from widening their 2J-game lead over the Los Angeles Dodgers and gave the Cubs a 25-23 record against the league's three leading pen nant contenders. i Banks Swats 36th Banks' blow, off lefty Johnny Antonelil, was his 36th of the year and raised his runs-batted-in production to 112. Project that over a 154-game schedule and the totals are 47 homers and 150 RBIs. Willowy Ernie set the major league homer-hitting record for shortstops last season with 47. While the Cubs were making the most of Banks' hitting to move into a tie for fourth place With the Pitts burgh Pirates, the three top contenders in the NL all miss ed an opportunity jto gain ground. The St. Louis Cardinals stymied the Dodgers' attempt to close in on the Giants by beating Los Angeles, 5-3; and the Milwaukee Braves could gain only a split of a double header with the Pirates, win ning the nightcap, 5-2, behind Warren Spahn after dropping the opener, 2-1. The Phila delphia Phils swept a twin bill from the Cincinnati Reds, 8-5 and 6-0. In the American league, the Chicago White Sox also lost a half-game of their lead by succumbing to tb Kansas City Athletics, 7-2. The run ner-up Cleveland Indians were rained out after taking a 5-0 first-inning lead over the Detroit Tigers. The New York Yankees divided a double-header with the Bos ton Red Sox, losing the open er, 6-5, and then winning the second game, 4-2. The Wash ingtonr Senators defeated the Baltimore Orioles, 6-1. Spahn Wins 16th Spahn, bidding for his 10th 20-victory season, ran his record to-" 16-11 with an eight hit nightcap victory over Pittsburgh. Dick Stuart's 400-foot-plus homer drove in the two runs for Pittsburgh's opening game triumph against Juan Pizarro. Rookie Gene Oliver drove in three St. Louis runs and Bill White hit a homer jo sink Roger Craig and the Dodgers. Gus Bell hit two first-game homers for Cincinnati, but the Phils exploded for a six-run sixth-inning rally to win the opening game for Robin Roberts. Don CardwelFs six hit shutout pitching in the nightcap completed the Phils' sweep., In the A's victory over the White Sox, Preston Ward, Bob Cerv and Russ Snyder hit Itome runs to make Ned Garver an easy nine-hit win ner. Mickey Mantle's 24th homer sent the Yankees off to. a second-game victory that snapped a five-game losing streak. Mantle also hit a first game -homer, but a six-run second-inning outburst clinch ed the Boston victory. Three Baltimore errors gave the Senators five un earned runs that sent young Jerry Walker down to defeat.

NFL teams played four ex hibitions during the ' week end. Each was won by four points or less and each 'was decided in the final minutes. Even in steaming August weather, these tight warmups reminded pro football addicts of last Dec. 28. That was the day Baltimore tied New York with seven seconds to go at Yankee Stadium and won the league title in overtime, 23 17, in what some observers called the best football game ever played. In Saturday night's section, Walt Kowalczyk's 43 - yard scoring dash in the final min utes gave the Philadelphia Eagles a 21-17 victory over New York; Zeke Bratkowski's 37-yard pass to Rick Casares with 41 seconds to go enabled the Chicago Bears to edge the Green Bay Packers, 19-16, and John Crow's 71-yard run in the last four minutes gave the Chicago Cardinals -at 21-19 triumph over the Detroit Lions. Just 10 seconds remained when . Sunday's only game was decided. Eddie LeBaron, the league's smallest quarter back at 165 pounds, directed a drive that gave the Wash ington Redskins a 24-20 lead with less than a minute to go. Y. A.

Butte Falls started the scor ing in the first inning when they chalked up two runs on walks and passed balls but Medford pushed over five runs in its half of the first and was never in danger after that. John Hanson, Bowling Lanes first baseman, swatted one over .the right field wall to go with two singles and three runs batted in.

Baker, Pauly Spur Metro Footballers Portland -(UPD- Members of the State All-Star team today were wondering just what hit them Saturday night in Port land's Multnomah stadium. That question can be an swered in just five words: Terry Baker and Steve Pauly. They paced Metro's 19-13 victory before 14,674 fans. Baker of Portland's Jeffer son high school was named the outstanding player of the 12th annual Shrine All-Star game here. And with -good reason. He figured in every point the Metro squad scored. . He ran for one touchdown, threw two scoring passes and kick ed Metro's only conversion. Paul caught both of Baker's payoff pitches. But a speedy lad from the State squad drew some no tice, too. RV Loop lieved him in the sixth, whiffed three, walked four and allowed two hits. ' Edwin Ellis, who started for Butte Falls, struck out two, walked one and gave up 12 hits. Irwin, who took over in the fifth, pushed the third strike past three, issued two free passes and gave up six safeties. LINESCORE: Butte Falls ....210 002 2 5 6 5 Medford 501 772 x 22 18 4 E. Ellis.

The Crater crew broke a 4 all knot with two runs in the sixth inning on singfes by Louis Alvarez, Dennis Fisher and Mike Glines and stolen bases by Alvarez and Fisher. Glines drove in both runs. A Eugene effort in the seventh was cut short at one run. A single by Lynn Trupp, a walk, fielder's option and error made the score. Ladd Horn, a high-stepping halfback from Pendleton, racked up both State touch downs. Horn reeled off dash es of 26 and 25 yards each to pace the' State scoring attack. Horn, who was named out standing back on the State 11," opened the scoring in the final minute of the first period with a 26-yard dash through the Metro line. Mike Murray of Medford missed on the attempted conversion kick. Baker capped a 79-yard Metro march with 56'seconds left in the first half by plung ing oyer from the , one-yard stripe on a keeper play. His conversion kick failed. Metro took the lead in the third quarter as the Jefferson high southpaw fired a 37-yard aerial to Pauly for six points. Again Baker's kick failed. Murray Hits Kick Horn ran State right back into the ball game , early in the final stanza with a 25 yard sweep around left end into paydirt. Murray thumped his conversion attempt square ly between the uprights to give State a 13-12 edge. This only inspired Baker to greater heights, though as he steered the Metro machine 73 yards in 13 plays for another six points. This time he flip ped a five-yard pass to Pauly for the score. Then Terry calmly booted the PAT. In the post-game ceremo nies, Mickey Hergert, a half back from Jefferson of Port land, was named outstanding back for Metro, and Pat Woods, a sturdy guard from Oregon City was named Me tro's outstanding lineman. John Johnson, a guard from Milton-Freewater, was named the outstanding lineman for State.

August 17, 1959 Paul Lowe Shines For SF Gridders Sari Francisco-(UPD-The ac cent was supposed to be on defense for Red Hickey's de but as head coach of the San Francisco Forty Niners Sun day, but a spindly-legged roo kie from Oregon State stole the show. Paul Lowe, a 170 pound speedster, scampered 77 yards for one touchdown and set up another with a 41 yard jaunt to lead the Forty Niners to a cliff-hanging 27-24 exhibition win over the Washington Red skins. Y. A. Tittle fired a 15 yard aerial to end Clyde Conner for the winning touchdown with just 10 seconds left to play. Throughout early practice sessions, Hickey had stressed defensive work on the as sumption it was the weakest part of the Forty Niners game last season. He moved offensive stalwarts -Frank Morze and Bob St. Clair to the defensive team. The move showed up well Sunday. The Skins made only 150 yards rushing and 121 passing-npt much by pro standards. In addition to Lowe, anoth er rookie, Tommy Davis from Louisiana State, turned in a fine first professional game. He kicked two field goals and three conversions. He missed two field goal attempts. Lowe's 77 yard run came on the'22-year-old's first pro fessional play. Subbing for Hugh McElheny, Lowe took a reverse and zig-zagged over his own right side before find ing daylight and outspeeding the final Skin defenders: The TD gave the Forty' Niners a 14-3 lead at half-time.
