Tricks, Nudge KC
By 1-Run
By FRED DOWN
United Press International
The Chicago White Sox are
up to their old tricks.
Victors in 35 one-run games
en route to the 1959 pennant,
the White Sox are defending
their championship the same
way they won it - by winning
the close ones. And if that's
the mark of a champion then
their seven AL rivals are in
for a long, hard summer.
The White Sox made it two
straight one-run victories in
the new season Thursday
when Ted Kluszewski's run
scoring single pulled out a 6-5
11-inning win over the Kansas
City Athletics.
Nelson Fox, the AL's most
valuable player in '59, led the
White Sox' comeback from a
4-0 first-inning deficit with
three singles and a double in
four official trips. Fox dou
bled and scored the run that
tied the score at 4-4 in the
1,650-Mile
Foot Race
Projected
Cottage Grove - Five
pcrienccd runners will
ex
be brought together at Tijuana,
Mexico on June 26 to begin
one of the most unique lung
distance foot races in Pacific
Coast sports history.
According to Al Martin,
president of the newly es
tablished Oregon sports cor
poration, International Mara
thons, the runners, one each
from the states of California,
Oregon and Washington, with
one each from Mexico arid
Canada to complete the team,
will run along the California
Coast as far as Crescent City,
and then turn inland to fol
low Highway 99 into Canada.
The entire distance for the
run Is over 1,650 miles.
Martin reported that, "we
don't think anyone has yet
attempted to establish any
kind of performance records
over this rugged coastal and
mountain route, and it should
be tried soon." As additional
motives for the run Martin
cited efforts to stimulate pub
lic interest in Pacific Coast
sports, and provide a basis for
specialized programs of phy
siological research on athletes.
Endurance flecord
The high point of the entire
run will be an attempt by the
five runner team to break the
existing non-stop endurance
record of 127 miles in 22
hours, 45 minutes made in
1929. The 19(10 run will begin
at the outskirts of Seattle,
Wash., and cover a course of
133 miles to Vancouver, B.C.,
with an assualt upon the time
record a primary goal of the
runners.
To emulate the ancient tra
dition of the early Greek
couriers, and attempt still an
other feat never before ac
complished, the runners will
carry a limited number of
pieces of philatelic mail over
the route in pre-determined
schedules of approximately
38 pickups, for an average
carry of 40 miles per day. The
entire event takes 39 days to
complete.
The run Is presently sched
uled to begin at Tijuana on
June 27, and will bo com
pleted upon arrival in Van
couver on August 12. The or
ganization is now completing
nearly tnree months or pre
liminary planning and is cur
rently seeking Interested
sponsors for their event.

Staley The Winner
Gerry Staley, who shut out
the Athletics with one hit over

Kansas City's loser.
The New York Yankees

his first victory of the season.
Debbek's blow came off Jack
Fisher after walks to Lenny

Gene Woodling homered for
the Orioles.
Carlton Willcy, one of the

Braves, striking out 10 batters
and walking only three. Hank
Aaron singled home the
Braves' first run in the sev

sacrifice fly added the other.
Jim O'Toole was the loser for
Cincinnati.
Hal Smith, Bob Skinner

By PETE COLEMAN
United Press International
Tacoma finally overcame
the weatherman last night
and got back into Pacific
Coast league action after a
four-day absence.
The best the Giants could
do was halve a double header
with Vancouver, winning the
opener, 6-2, and losing the
nightcap, 9-4, but they prob
ably were delirious with joy
just for the chance to play.
Rain had kept them on the
sidelines Sunday through
Wednesday.
Elsewhere Thursday night,
Portland got another home
run from heavy hitting George
Freese while downing Sacra
mento, 5-2. Salt Lake rang
the bell five times in the
eighth to come from behind
and dump Seattle, 9-7, and
San Diego used a six-run,
sixth-inning splurge to sink
Spokane, 7-4.
Tacoma's Curt Barclay
fashioned a neat three-hitter
as the Giants took the opener.
He had trouble only in the
sixth inning when the Moun-
tics scored both their runs,
Early Wrap Up
The Giants wrapped it up
early with a five - run first
frame rally highlighted by
doubles off the bats of Danny
O Connell and Matty Alou.

stein said today his new
American Basketball league
will bring the game back to
the litle guy.
"Our rules will be a lot dif
ferent than the National Bas
ketball association's where it
is a game of towering giants
and towering scores," Saper
stein said.
"We will devise rules to re
turn defense to basketball and
make it a game for the little
guy as well the the big guy,"
he said.
Saperstein, millionaire own
er of the Harlem Globe Trot
ters, announced the birth of
the six-city ABL after a closed
meeting Thursday. Saperstein
was named acting president
and part owner of the San
Francisco franchise.
Franchises
Franchises were awarded to
Sun Francisco, Chicago. Los
Angeles, Kansas City, Wash
ington, D.C., and Cleveland.
They will organize teams for
the league's start this fall, he
said.
Four other cities Pitts
burgh, Vancouver, Portland,
Ore., and Honolulu, Hawaii
also applied for franchises and
will probably be admitted for
the 1961-62 season, Saper
stein said.
He said players will be dis
tributed from a league pool
consisting of college cage stars
and possibly some from the
National Industrial Basketball
league.

ranked welterweight.
' T si itft
Joe Staniland and Charlie
White, an error, a walk and a
sacrifice fly. Bobby Balcena
hit a bases empty homer for
the Mounties in the first in
ning. Phil Paine, the third of four
Vancouver pitchers, hurled
two scoreless innings to take
his first win of the season.
San Diego, gaining an even
split in the four game series,
came up with hits when they
were needed to keep the sixth
inning rally alive. Grover
Jones tripled in two of six
runs and Camilo Carreon, a
pinch hitter, accounted for
two more with a single.
Spokane got one run in the
first inning when Charlie
Smith doubled behind Earl
Robinson's walk and two in
the third on two free passes,
two singles and a sacrifice
fly. Frank Howard homered
in the ninth for the final In
dian tally.
All The Way
Portland, with Freese hit
ting his fifth homer of the

sixth, got a pair in the sev
enth on two walks, a sacrifice
and an infield pinch hit.
Winning pitcher Lynn Lov
enguth, notching his second

Salt Lake, down for seven
and a half innings, came to
life in the last of the eighth
to stage the big rally. Four
singles, a double by Harry
Bright, a pair of walks and a
Seattle error made up the
outburst that got the Bees
their second win of the sea
son.
Jim Baumer hit a solo hom
er for Salt Lake in the third
frame, but R. C. Stevens was
the batting hero with two
singles, a double, and three
runs scored. Go'rdy Coleman
wielded the big stick for Seat
tle, getting three safeties, in
cluding a double and a
triple.

Signed Up
By CONNIE RYAN
New York - tUPD - Ingemar
Johansson flew back to Eu
rope Thursday night after
signing for the fight Floyd
Patterson feared he would
not get.
Johansson, who won the
world heavyweight title from
Patterson last June 26, sign
ed to give Floyd a chance to
become the first man ever
to regain that title. The bout,
which may draw a million
dollars at the gate alone, will
be held on Monday June 20
at the Polo Grounds.
"It's a great relief to me
to have signed," Floyd said.
"I was worried I would not
get the fight. I thought may
be the International Boxing
Club would put Archie Moore
in there with Johansson."
He need not have worried.
Ingo had insisted for nine
months he would fight no one
before Floyd, and in no place
but New York, and he meant
it.
"It took a lot of time to
arrange this fight and to be
sure of the contracts and the
terms, but now it is done and
I am satisfied," said Johans
son before he took off on a
flight to Paris. He was en
route to Geneva, Switzerland,
where he maintains a home
and where he has been in
moderately heavy training.
With final approval by the
New York State Athletic
commission and the subse
quent formal signing, the
new promotional group, Fea
ture Sports Inc., plunged full
speed ahead today. It order
ed the printing of tickets,
which will sell for $10 to
$100, and said its press head
quarters will open next Mon
day in the Commodore hotel.

it has slated this year, it was
announced today by Manager
Harry Glickman in releasing
the lflfiO schedule.
"This is one of the most at
tractive schedule of games
put together for Portland and
should easily average more

Hockey club, which enters
the Western Hockey league
next season upon the comple
tion of the Memorial Coli

Eugene Race Rivals
Eugene -IUPD- One of the na
tion's top mile races is in pros
pect Saturday between Dyrol
Burleson of Oregon and Ernie
Cunliffe of Stanford, if the
weather man cooperates.
Burleson, a lanky lad from
Cottage Grove, Ore., is ranked
as America's top 1,500-meter
hopeful for the ' Olympic
games.
Cunliffe, a stocky 880-man
who started running the mile
to build up his endurance, has
proved the surprise of the dis
tance world this spring. His
4:02.3 mile is the best in the
country so far this year.
Their race highlights the
Oregon-Stanford dual track
meet here.
Bill Bowerman, the Oregon
coach, says a four-minute mile
isn't beyond the range of pos
sibility. "A lot depends on the
conditions."
The weather man has fore
cast fair skies for Saturday.
Last Effort Poor
Burleson's last effort,
against Washington, was poor
as far as time goes, a little
over 4:16. But the 20-year-old
sophomore doesn't run for
speed, he runs to win. And
win, he has, in all but two of
his mile races. Teammate Jim
Grelle edged him here last
year but Burley came back to
more than even that score.
And Jim Beatty nipped him at
the tape in the Baxter mile in
New York last winter.
Cunliffe, a 5-11, 165-pound-er
from Claremount, Calif.,
ended last season as the coun
try's best collegiate half miler.
In international competition,
top runners managed to catch
him in the stretch. So this
year Coach Payton Jordan

Cunliffe to build up his
strength.
It worked.
Cunliffe chopped some time
off his best 880 mark with a
1:47.3, and in the process bet
tered his previous mile time
by nine seconds.
Cunliffe likes to get in front
and stay there, fighting off
challengers at the finish.
Burleson stays off the pace
and uses a tremendous finish
ing kick in the final 330 yards
to win.
