B MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, ORE. WEDNESDAY. AUGUST 31, I960 Spahn Chalks Up 1 7th Victory As Braves Wallop Cardinals By MILTON RICHMAN , United Press International Maybe the Milwaukee Braves aren t going anywhere, bul Warren Spahn is-straight lnio ine Hall of Fame, Spahn, who won't need any road map to get to Coopers town, N. Y., when his playing aays are over, keeps moving closer and closer to the base ball shrine each time he pitch es. ' The amazing 39 -year -old southpaw already holds the National league record for most 20-game seasons by a left-hander. Spahn has won 20 games 10 different seasons. And he looks like a cinch lo make it 11. ,. Setting the St. Louis Cardi nals down 10-0, on five hits Tuesday night, Spahn won his 17th game of the season and turned in his 50th shutout along with the 284th victory of his career. He now has won nine games and lost only one since the All-Star break and shows nary a sign of slipping. Braves Regain Second The Braves, who moved back into second place by one percentage point over the Cards but still trail the first place Pirates by 6V4 games, handed Ernie Broglio his sev enth defeat against 16 vic tories. Pittsburgh defeated Los An geles 4-2, San Francisco edged Philadelphia, 2-1, and Chica go topped Cincinnati, 5-4, in other NL games. The top three American league clubs all won to cause no change there. New York nipped Kansas City, 3-2, to protect its 114 game lead over second place Baltimore, which beat Cleveland, 4-1, and third place Chicago battled to a 10-ining 11-10 victory over Washington. Boston swept a twi-night doublehead- er from Detroit, 5-4, in 15 in nings and d-z in 10 innings. Friend Beat Dodgers Back - to - back homers by Dick Groat and Roberto Cle- mcnte off loser Sandy Koufax in the fifth inning provided the Pirates with their margin of victory over the Dodgers. Hob Friend won his 14th game against 11 losses. Sam Jones struck out 14 Phillies' batters and yielded seven hits in out-dueling Rob in Roberts and winning his 15th game for the Giants. Ernie Banks' 37lh homer in the inning off Joe Nuxhall led the Cubs to their win over the Reds.

Gene Stephens hit his seventh homer for the Orioles and Jim Gentile his 20th with one 'on. the While Sox came up with five runs in the ninth and four more in the 10th in their victory over the Sen ators. Nellie Fox doubled home two runs in the 10th and a wild throw by Bill Gardner enabled the winning run to score, although the Senators made it close by re taliating with three runs in their half of the 10th. Pete Runnels moved into a tie with AI Smith of the White Sox for the AL batting lead by collecting nine hits in 11 trips during the twin-bill be tween the Red Sox and Tigers, Runnels, who is now hit ting .324, won ' the opener with his sixth hit of the game, a double in the 15th that scored Frank Malzone.

Nine-Game Lead Held By Spokane By PETE COLEMAN United Press International The Spokane Indians rolled merrily along in their drive toward the Pacific Coast league pennant in Tuesday night s action while Tacoma, Salt Lake and Seattle con tinued their three-way scram ble for second place. The Indians downed Seat tle, 8-7, to stretch their lead to an almost insurmountable nine games. Third-place Salt Lake slipped by San Diego, 4-2, to pull to within a half game of the second - running Tacoma Giants, who lost to Sacramento, 3-2. Vancouver dumped Portland, 9-7, in the other game. Spokane had to hold on light in the late innings to lake its win over Seattle. Almost But Not Quite The Indians ran up an 8-1 lead after six, bul the Rainiers got three in the seventh, two more in the eighth and anoth er one in the ninth to make it close. Willie Davis hit his 24th and 25th triples of the season for Spokane lo set a new PCL record for three-baggers. Rudy Regalado had a onc-on homer for the losers. Vancouver raked four Port land pitchers for 16 hits, in cluding catcher Lcn Neal's game winning, three-run hom er, in downing the Beavers. Portland had an early 6-2 lead but couldn't hold it. Don Taussig hit a grand slam hom er for the Beavers in the first inning and Bill Wilson poled one out of the park with the bases empty for the losers. Lai reported that will go out for all three sports he played In high school, foot ball, basketball and baseball. Lowell will turn out for foot ball and baseball, skipping the hoop sport in college.

SPORTS Excellent Hunting for Doves Seen Portland - Scattergunners can begin to sharpen their shooting eye next month on two of the most elusive wing targets in tne annals of up land bird gunning. These two erratic-flying tar gets are the mourning dove and band-tailed pigeon, with the gunning season scheduled to open on Sept. 1 and extend ing to Sept. 30. Bag limit on these feath ered bombshells is set for 10 doves daily, 20 in possession, and 8 pigeons daily or in possession. Dove hunters should find excellent shooting throughout the state. . Reports indicate dove populations high, espe cially in the grain sections of eastern Oregon, the high des ert water hole country, and along the canyons of the bnake, Malheur, John Day, and Deschutes rivers. The Willamette valley is also ex pected to provide some fair to good dove shooting. Band-tailed pigeon hunters snould do the best around the mineral, springs, tide flat areas, regular flyways, and feeding areas. Good gunning is expected to continue through at least mid-September and then ease off as doves and pigeons begin their southward migrations.

Oakland's Raiders Could Be Surprise (Editor's Note: The fol lowing is the sixth of 21 dispatches sizing up th taams in the Aemrican Foot ball league and the Nation al Football league.) By HAL WOOD Oakland -rlUPD- The Oakland Raiders, little "orphan" of the American Football league: not expected to win more than two games during the 1960 schedule of 14 tilts. But, with coach Eddie Erd elatz at the helm, the Raiders may shock some of the more firmly established concerns in the fledgling conference. Oakland was the eighth and last team to be offered franchise in the league-after all the drafting was com pleted. "The result has been that we've had to take what we can get in cast-offs, pick-ups and free lancers," says general manager Chet Soda. "But we still think we'll have a pretty good team." Erdelatz doesn't have a "big name" player on the whole squad. The quarterback will be Tommy Flores, one-time College of Pacific signal call er who failed to make it with the National league. Behind him is Paul Larson, former University of California star who has been playing in the Canadian league. Flores how ever, seems to have the edge. Small Club "We are going to be a small club as pro teams go," says Erdelatz. "And we aren't go ing to be the fastest. But our boys want to play ball-and they have shown indications we may do all right." But Eddie won't predict where the club will finish. Most of the so-called "ex perts" believe Oakland and Denver will fight it out for the basement position. Erdelatz believes he has a bigtime fullback in Billy Lott of Mississippi; and he has three fine halfbacks in Jack Larsheid, College of Pacific; Tony Teresa, San Jose Slate, and Buddy Allen of Utah State. Downf ield blocking for these speedsters may present Yankee Rowers 2nd in Heats Castelgandlfo (UPU Russia continued to pull a powerful oar as trial heats in the Olym pic rowing competition were resumed on choppy Lake Al bano this morning while the two U.S. entries again rested their hopes on the Repechages.
