Match For
knocking out Gomes in the
first round Wednesday night
in a nationally televised bat
tle a fete that even stunned
his many Filipino followers in
Civic auditorium.
"It came as a surprise to me
too," said Elorde after the vic
tory. "I knocked him down
eight times while licking him
in Manila before I got a
knockout in the seventh
round. So I knew he would get
up after the first time I
knocked him down in this
bout.
"And I wasn't sure he would
stay down the second time."
But the audience knew.
Elorde, coming in like a tiger,
caught Gomes with a left to
the face that put him down for
a seven count. When the Pro

once held the crown himself,
got up, Elorde swarmed all

Giants Trip
Cards For
Third Time
St. Louis (UPD The San
Francisco Giants lost a lot of
fans during their present dis
astrous road trip-but they're
making a valiant effort to win
them back before returning to
Candlestick park.
The Giants dropped far out
of the first division by los
ing 12 of the first 14 games on
their Eastern swing. But on
their return trip, manager
Clancy Sheehan's troops
swept a three-game series with
St. Louis to knock the Cardi
nals out of second place in the
National league.
It's still a long way back to
San Francisco, and the Giants
didn't find any of the St.
Louis victories easy. The final
score Wednesday night was
6-5 'and the Cards had two
men on when the game ended.
The San Franciscans got a
rest today, but they open a
four-game series with the Chi
cago Cubs Friday and play
one game in Los Angeles be
fore returning home.
Rookie relief pitcher Sher
man (Roadblock) Jones posted
his first victory. He came in
for Jack Sanford in the fourth
inning, but needed help from
Johnny Antonelll in the sev
enth. Jones also helped his own
cause at the plate. In his only
time at bat, he rapped a sin
gle and drove in one run.
The Giants had a total of 13
hits off starter Ray Sadeckl
and four other Cardinal pitch
ers who followed him. Felipe
Alou had two hits including
a three-run homer in the third
inning, and Bob Schmidt had
three-for-five.
Walt Moryn and Daryl
Spencer homered for the Car-dinals-who
were tagged with
their sixth straight defeat.
The fifth-place Giants gain
ed some ground on both SU
Louis and Los Angeles. They
now trail the fourth-place
Dodgers by five games and
the Cards by 5'i.
pion retained his croWn by knocking out
Gomes in 1 minute and 20 seconds of the
first round of a scheduled 15 rounder.

Elorde
right to the chin put him
away for keeps after only
one minute and 20 seconds of
fighting,
"I'm going from here to To
kyo on Aug. 24 to defend my
Orient lightweight crown.
Then I hope to get a shot at
Joe Brown, said the jubilant
Elorde.
It is doubtful that the pub
lic will call for, a rematch.
But the television fans who
like their knockouts got their
money's worth.
After the brief encounter
ended in the first round, pre
liminary boy Johnny Seratto,
137V4, San Francisco, flatten
ed Charlie Pyatit, 139, San
Francisco, also in the opening
stanza. So a third bout was
put on the screen. And in this
case, Clarence James, 165,
Oakland, Calif., knocked out
Floyd Eyan, 163, Richmond
Calif., in the second stanza.

Carolyn didn't feel she had
too good a chance to make
the 1G60 U.S. Olympic swim

looking ahead to 1964 and the
Olympic Games In Japan.
But Carolyn did make it

The young Beaverton high

her third year for Portland's
famed Multnomah Athletic

the 100-meter freestyle and
the 100-meter butterfly at the
Detroit trials.
In the freestyle, Carolyn
finished second to the great
Chris Von Saltza of the Santa

meter butterfly she was the
winner.
It didn't figure. Her best
