For Loop Lead When Tribe
Splits Ml With Orioles
By FRED DOWN
Uniled Press International
That treadmill American
League race reached the "Can
you top this?" point today
when the New York Yankees
advanced Into a first-place
deadlock on the strength (it a
tie.
It was a long, hard road (or
the Yankees, who hadn't
owned a share of the AL lead
since the early days of the
1959 season and it ended on
a slightly ridiculous note
when the umpires finally
threw up their hands at 2:32
a.m. (e.d.t.) this morning and
declared a 7-7 tic between
New York and the Kansas
City Athletics.
The Yankees had twice let
the Athletics stage three-run
rallies to tie, once in the ninth
and once in the 12th, and then
in 13th the rain came in
sharp, slanting pelts. The
umps looked at the weary
athletes and managers in both
dugouts and mercifully said,
"Let's all go home."
Yanks Tie Indians
As a result, the Yankees'
29-21 season record tied them
with the Cleveland Indians,
who split a twi-night double-
header with the Baltimore
Orioles, winning 10-2 and
losing 13-5. Both the Yankees
and Indians have .580 per
centages and the Orioles are
practically glued to their
backs with a .579 mark.
The Chicago White Sox
whipped the Washington
Senators, 6-4. and the Boston
Bed Sox puller1 out a ll)-in
ning, 4-3 triumph over the
Detroit Tigers in the other AL
games.
The Pittsburgh Piartes in
creased their National League
lend to three games with a
14-6 win over the San Fran
cisco Giants; the St. Louis
Cardinals beat the Cincinnati
Reds, 6-0; the Los Angeles
Dodgers routed the Philadel

triples, to make it easy for
Harvey Haddix to win his

Ray Sadecki pitched a

pared with what they did to
Joe Shipley, Stu Miller,
George Maranda and Bud
cyeriy. BUI Loes, who was
in there for only two-thirds of
an inning, escaped without
damage.
The Giants did a bit of hit
ting themselves Wednesday,

pared with 19 for Pittsburgh.
But the Pirates clustered
theirs. They put together four
hits for four runs in the third;
got five runs off five hits in
the seventh.
Harvey Haddix, the win
ning pitcher for the Pirates,
took it easy on the mount
but he was a tiger at the plate
with a bloop double, two in
field scratches and one solid
hit for 4x5 for the day.

Klamath Falls grabbed two
runs in the top of the first
inning and it was goose eggs
the rest of the way in the
American Legion junior base
ball here last night.
The 2 to 0 victory over the
Central Point Cheney Studs
gave Klamath undisputed
leadership in the southern
division Of Area 4.
Central Point will try to
bolster its now second place
position at Cheney diamond
here on Friday evening. The
Sluds tussle Medford at 8 p.m.
Klamath's crew got just
! four hits in the game but
bunched two of them with
two bases on balls and a CP
error in the opening canto to
manufacture its markers. Don
Willey and Rich DePew were
the hitters.
Studs runners reached third
base on two occasions and
second sack in three other in
nings but teammates could
n't muster the punch to get
them across. Wally Palmbcrg,
Klamath pitcher who fanned
batters 14 times, allowed CP
three hits but no more than
one per inning. First Cheney
safety was Pat Pepper's bad
hop single down the third
base line. Steve Harris sin
gled in the sixth inning and
Mike Glines doubled in the
seventh,
Henry Hcrrera and Palm
i berg were the other hitters for
! KF.
Slow -balling Doug Pfaff
was effective in relief for the
I Studs. He came in with no
one out and two men on base
in the second inning and al
lowed just two hits over the
rest of the route. After one
out in the second, he gave up
one hit to load the bases but
force-outs retired the side. Er
rors were the main bugaboo
after that.
The Studs got Glines to
third In the first inning on
an error, stolen base and wild
pitch nnd to the hot corner
again in the third canto on a
base on balls, error and steal.
Leftfielder Don Gresdel's fine
snare of a hard sock by Brad
Getlling prevented a Cheney
tally in the sixth stanza. Pfaff
had been placed on base when
hit by a pitch and Sieve Har
ris followed Gettling's smash
with a single.
All St'id outs were on
strikeouts in the first, third,
fifth and seventh innings.
Palmbcrg walked three and
hit two batters. Bill Ai.hnrn,
Stud hill starter, allowed two
hits and walked two. He fan
ned three. Pfaff struck out
three. He hit one batter but
issued no bases on balls.
Central Point's p 1 1 r h c r -catcher
combination against
Medford will be Bill Anhorn
and Ed Allen or Brad Settling
and Jeff Anhorn. Medford
may have Herb Wheeler on
the hill with Jim Barry receiving.

Denver - H'PD - They teed
off in the "big one" today
and the betting was that when
the firing ends around sun
down on Saturday the new
1960 U.S. Open golf champion
will be brawny Arnold Palm
er. He was the 4 to 1 betting
choice in the field of 150 golf
ers who are trying for the
biggest title in their business.
That betting favoritism is
about as close as you can
come to being an odds on
choice in a field of stars.
Rated next to the Masters
champion in the betting odds
were former PGA king Dow
Finsterwald, Gene Littler,
who has been the hottest play
er on the tour for the past six
weeks, and Ken Venturi. All
were quoted at 6 to 1.
Sentiment Favors Hogan
At 8 to 1 came one of the
sentimental favorites, Ben
Hogan. He was grouped at
those odds with Art Wall, who
seems to be back on his game
after a siege of illness. Sam
S n e a d, another sentimental

Portland -HIPII- The weekly
report on fishing conditions

Southwest: Trout fishing
fair in Coos and Coquille sys

in Coos bay, but shad fishing
excellent; Winchester bay
slow for salmon.
Rogue and major tributar

Trout fishing should im
prove in headwater portions
of Applegate and Illinois riv
ers; trout angling in North
Umpqua system between Win
chester and Boulder creek
good to excellent; fishing on
lower Rogue and on the lakes
and streams surrounding is
very slow.
choice who never has won this
biggest of all golf titles, was
quoted at 10 to 1.
First off the tee at the 7,004

mile-high Denver was Jack L.
Koennecker of Prairie View,

Eight former Open cham
pions are in the field, which
also includes a strong foreign
