o o Orioles Go on Top; Daley Whips Yanks By FRED DOWN United Pirn International Maybe the law of averages Just caught up with the New York Yankees but when is it going to catch up with Bud Paley? The Yankees needed only a victory over the Kansas City Athletics Thursday night to take over undisputed posses sion of first place in the Amer ican league for the first time Pittsburgh Leading by Four Frays ; By DON TRACKERY San Francisco- (UPD -"We've reached the bottom of the bar rel," Manager Bill Rigney of the San Francisco Giants said today. "There's no place to go from here but up." The Giants still are in sec ond place, despite three straight lacings by the Pitts burgh Pirates. But they trail the leaders by four full games. San Francisco took a 10-7 walloping from the Pirates Thursday. Actually it was worse than that until the Giants came through with a five-run rally in the bottom of the ninth. Fign.y Optimistic "That ninth inning gave us a ray of sunshine," said Rig ney. "Maybe the boys can start putting some hits to gether now." The Giants got at least one hit in every inning Thursday but is wasn't until the game was nearly over that they could route Pirate hurler Wil mer (Vinegar Bend) Mizell from the mound. In that big rally, the first five men to the plate hit safe ly. Joe Amalfintano, Willie Mays and Willie McCovey led off with singles before Mizell was lifted in favor of Elroy Face. With one in, Orlando Cepeda greeted Face with a single to send across another. Then Willie Kirkland hit a homer with two aboard. It was the same type rally that won the game for the Pirates. They poured six runs across the plate in the fifth Inning off Jack Sanford. With two runs in and the bases loaded and none down, Bob Skinner clouted a grand slam homer. , Why Settle for Less when you can DRINK THE BESTI A&W ROOT BEER "Take home a gallon" Corner of Jackson and Riverside since 19S8 and the odds looked just right. They'd beat en the Athletics, often re ferred to as their "cousins," five straight times this year and 23 out of 28 times over a two-season period. The catch was that they ran into the hottest pitcher in the major leagues - a 6-foot, 180 pound left-handed knuckle- bailer from Long Beach, Calif. Daley spun his dancing knuckler past the Yankee sluggers with almost effortless ease as he pitched the Athlet ics to a 9-1 victory behind an eight-hit attack that included homers by Dick Williams and Whitey Herzog. In the bar gain, the Athletics whipped Whitey Ford, who carried a string of 14 consecutive vic tories over them into the game. The Yankee loss permitted the Baltimore Orioles to re claim first place by IVi games on the strength of a 3-2 win over the Cleveland Indians. The Pittsburgh Pirates opened up a four-game lead in the National league with a 10-7 win over the San Fran cisco Giants. LINESCORES: American Leagu.

Memorial Stadium, White City - A 'no-hit, no-run pitch ing performance, and a 16-hit attack guided the Rogue Val ley Dairy Maids to a 24 to 0 Softball win over the Rose burg Lumberjills here last night: Ellen Callaghan and Pat Barron combined for the no hitter with Callaghan throw' ing the first four innings, walking one, and striking out five. Barron pitched three frames walking one, hitting a batter, and striking out seven. Callaghan, Doris Hickson, and Tony Owens led the hit ting attack with three safeties apiece. In the explosive 12-run fourth inning 11 Dairy Maids reached first before an out was produced.

AnaLee Felt was the only Lumberjill to reach second base. After being hit, she ad vanced to second on a wild pitch. THE ANGLER'S LOG Over 13,000 salmon over the counting board and still a big slug of them on the way: Total run estimates are being revised upwards by the ex perts and their expectations are at least 26,000 salmon for this year. Let's hope this is the beginning of a general upward trend in the run. Rogue River The salmon seem to have come out of their sulk and are hitting lures and bait. Biggest one re ported was 41 pounds, taken between Casey's and Elk creek on Wednesday. There seems to be a higher percent age of jacks this year and the catches are mainly of jacks. These are sexually precocious fish that make their run on their third year instead of the fourth, fifth, or sixth. Diamond Lake Has slowed down for some. Water is still clear with fly hatches daily. Stillfishing has tapered off and trolling is doing the busi ness. When the big ones fin- 0 9 L1NESCORE: Rosebure 000 000 0 0 Dairy Maids 144 112)1224 16 Felt. Bosenbark (41. Felt (4), and Glhbons.

Woods, Water, Wildlife By Hank DeVois Burleson Favorite Berkeley, Calif. -(UPD- High jumper John Thomas, shot putter Dallas Long and miler Dyrol Burleson will be the stars when the 39th annual NCAA track and field meet gets under way in Edwards Stadium today. Thomas, from Boston uni versity, is expected to rewrite the books in his specialty and clear the bar above the seven foot mark.

Klamath Lake-Nearly ev ery boat coming in with a five fish limit. FF&W seems to bring in the lunkers right now. Biggest this season is a 12-pounder and the rest run a meager 4 to 5 pounds. Squaw Lakes-Fair to good, with trolling FF&flatfish. Bank fishing with cluster eggs is paying off. Swimming is fine and the float now sports a new diving board. Willow Crux-Is still pick ing up.
