Ashland Diamonders Nick Grants Pass Cavemen 3-2 Ashland - Ashland high nudged Grants Pass 3 to 2 in nine innings Friday to take over third place in the stand ings in Southern Oregon con ference baseball. Harley Dickerson brought the brush to a close by cross ing home plate on a passed ball with none out in the ninth. Dickerson got on base on an error, Mike Brewer doubled and Brad Gettling was purposely walked, filling the sacks prior to the scoring dash. The encounter is under Grants Pass challenge, how ever. Mel Ingram, Caveman coach made the protest in the top of the ninth on an um pire's ruling on an overthrow error with one out and two men on base. The mentor maintained that Roy Harris, GP runner on second base, should have been allowed to go all the way home when a throw-in intend ed for third base, after a fly ball catch, went into the Ash land bench. Umpire Fred Jones allowed Harris to go only to third. Harris report edly did not head for third until the ball had reached the bench. The ball was dead at that point. Cole Goes String Losing pitcher Bill Cole permitted Ashland only four hits, the first by Jerry Hauck with two down in the sixth inning. Up to that time Cole had faced only 17 batters. One got on base on an error then was thrown out. GP tallied in the fourth inn ing on a walk, fielder's op tion and hits by Rex Benner and Harris.

Derby Br RAY AYBES Louisville, Ky. - H'PD-Vene-tlan Way, plagued by injury and sickness throughout most of his career, unleased a pjowerful run on the turn into the homestretch Saturday and blaited his way through the straightway to a four length victory in the Kentucky Der by. With Jockey Bill Hartatk in the saddle, Venetian Way swept past Edgehlll Farm's Bally Ache as the field of 13 America's best three-year-olds circled the big bend in the first of the triple crown clas sics. A desperate Bobby Ussery, the jockey on Bally Ache who had gone to the front at the start, lashed his mount se verely. But Bally Ache just didn't have the stuff to stay with the winner. Eight Lengths Bally Ache, whose vaunted front-running speed earlier in the year had carried him to victory in the Flamingo Stakes and the Florida Derby, easily was best of the others for there was a gap of eight lengths back to Windfield Farm's Victoria Park, the third horse. Then came C. V. Whitney's Tompion, the favorite of this crowd estimated at about 75, 000. Topion's failure made it the 11th time Whitney has tried to win the Derby but failed. This was the fourth time Hartack has ridden in the Kentucky Derby and his sec ond victory. He won with Calumet Farm's Iron Liege in 1957. Great Finish For owner Isaac Blumberg, master of the Sunny Farm, it was the first victory in the one race thoroughbred own ers would rather win above all others. He had another start in the Rose-run two year ago when his Lincoln Road finished second to Tim Tarn. He was on hand today to see one of the great closing runs in Kentucky Derby his tory. For when Venetian Way started to run you almost could feel the power of his drive. That drive carried him across the finish line in 2:02 25; 1 second slower than than the record of 2:01 25 set by Whirlnway in 1941, But it still ranked as one of the fast est of the Kentucky Derbsy. Ventian Way, who has suf fered everything from bucked shins to bloodworms was third choice behind Topion and Bally Ache in the betting and he paid $14.60, $4.60 and $3.40 across the board. Victory in the $158,950 race was worth $114,850. Bourbon Prince was fifth behind Tompion with Cuvier Relic, Tony Graff, Spring Broker, Divine Comedy, Fighting Hodge, Yomolka, LuruIIah and Henrijan com pleting the field in that order. Cougars Edge U. of W. Team Pullman, Wash. -(UPD- AVash ington State university and University of Washington's Huskies battled to the wire in a Northern division track meet here Saturday, but the Cqugars grabbed the last two events for a 71 V4 to 59-15 victory. Bill Colwell of the Cougars came from 30-feet behind to inch out a win over Reed Miller of the Huskies in the two mile run In 9:38.4. . The Cougars iced the meet by taking the mile relay with a time of 3:18.2. Wayne Wilson of the Cou gars and Don Faiila of the Huskies tied in setting a new meet record of 14 feet, four Inches in the pole vault.
