O o o o O O O O G THURSDAY. SEPTEMBER 8. Yanks Rally To Beat Ghisox 6-4, Narrow Baltimore's Lead By MILTON RICHMAN United Press International Late-inning lightning an old New York Yankee trade markis causing that omin ous thunder the front-running Baltimore Orioles are begin ning to hear in the back ground. American league pitchers claim' the Yankees are most dangerous during the eighth and ninth innings. They scored another one in exactly that fashion Tuesday night, beating the Chicago White Sox, 6-4, with a four run rally in the eighth to climb within two percentage " points of the first-place Ori- oles, who bowed to the Cleve land Indians, 3-2. An error by fill-in second " baseman Sammy Esposito pro vided the wedge which en abled the Yankees to break through for the game-winning ' rally in the eighth. Trailing 4-1 at the time, the Yanks got two men on base with one out when Bill Skowron bounced a hopper to Esposito, subbing for ailing Nellie Fox. Esposito let the tall get away from him, fill ing the bases. " ' Pinch - hitter Yogi Berra singled for two runs, kayoing loser Early Wynn and Johnny Washington State Coach Not At All Pessimistic (Editor's note: This is one in a series of dispatches on the I960 prospects of major west coast college football learns.) By NORM GILLETTE United Press International Pullman-OJPD-The Washing ton State Cougars are loaded with sophomores for I960 but Coach Jim Sutherland refuses to be pessimistic about his team's prospects. More than half of the 59 players reporting to Suther land for fall practice were sophomores. But he also had on hand 21 lettermen. Sutherland, a 47 year - old native of Winnipeg, Canada, wouldn't budge from his "cheery" outlook for this campaign when asked about his team's youth. "Nowadays, no college team can afford to be 'young,' " he quipped. "We are just going to have to grow up in a hurry. We're not so young anyway and I have no doubts that we will be better than last year." Lincoln Shines The Cougars compiled a 6-4 record in 1959 and a lot of the success was attributed to a swift, hard-working halfback from Monrovia, Calif. - Keith Lincoln. The 208-pound triple threat led the team in total of fense with 852 yards. Back for CANO REPLACES REED Pullman. Wash. - IUPD - Ted Cano of San Francisco re placed injured George Keea as starting fullback for Wash inotnn state Wednesday, ac cording to Cougar coach Jim Sutherland. Reed broke his lee in nractice Tuesday and the nod went to Cano - who broke his leg in practice last .mar Sutherland gave the Nn fnllhapk 1ob to sopho more Harold Haddock and put J. C. transfer Louis Biaiseiey of Sacramento in the third spot. his sentor year, the WSU coaches look for this to be Lincoln's greatest campaign, ffliM 0 I960 Blanchard followed with a pinch double off reliever Gerry Staley for two more. Tony Kubek provided an in surance run with his 12th homer in the ninth. Lefty Luis Arroyo held the White Sox hitless over the fin al 2 1-3 innings to register his fourth straight win without a loss. Before starter Whitey Ford departed, he gave up five hits, including a two-run homer by Sherm Lollar. Jim Perry of the Indians scored his 16th victory al though nicked for 11 hits by the Orioles. Milt Pappas, who suffered Rice Signed By Orioles Baltimore - IQPD - T h Baltimore Orioles, with second-string catcher Clint Courtney suffering an arm injury, signed veteran catcher Del Rice today to help them in the final weeks of the I960 American league pennant race. The 37-year-old Rice, with 16 campaigns in the majors behind him. recently was re leased by the St. Louis Car dinals. Main problems that Suther land must concern himself with are at the center and quarterback positions. Gone are last year's two top centers and linebackers, Marv Nelson and Merl Hitzel. The Cougars also need quarterbacking of the caliber that Bobby Neu man, Bunny Aldrich and Dave Wilson supplied in re cent years. Junior Mel Melin, who won lette last year, probably will be most of the quarter backing, assisted by junior Bruce Ellingsen, another let terman; and sophomore Dave Mathieson. The centers could be Denny Martin or Pat Crooks, a con verted guard. Both won let ters last year. Best Speed Sutherland s offense tea' tures both the balanced and unbalanced T with a ' slot back. The head coach claims this year's team has the best speed of any he s had at Wash ington State In four years. He hopes to make good use of the break-away running of Lin coln, Dave Kerrone, Jerry Campbell, Perry Harper, Ted Cano and George Keea. The Cougars lost some top notch receivers by graduation in Gail Cogdill, Don Ellersick and Laroy Rath, but Pete Schenck, Lee Schroeder, Ed Shaw and Mike Martin look capable of handling the pass- catching chores. The guard and tackles will be smaller, but more active, than last year. Garner Eks tran, 205; Roger Duprel, 210; Jim Greig, 210; Ron Green 240. and watchpocket guard, Bill Barry at 165 pounds, are the seniors in the Cougar for ward wall. They'll get help from junior Bob Colleran, 225 and Bob Hoien. 240.

Reminding You To Be Sure to Attend The Medtord BLACK TORNADO VS ARCATA FOOTBALL GAME NIGHT AT 8 P.M. his ninth loss against 13 vic tories, gave up a pair of runs in the first inning and yielded what proved to be the winning run in the eighth when Vic Power hit a sacrifice fly with the bases full. Boston defeated Detroit, 5-4, and Washington beat Kan sas City, 5-3, in other AL games. St. Louis sliced Pittsburgh's lead in the National league to six games with a 2-1 victory over the Pirates, Milwaukee topped San Francisco, 6-5 in 11 innings, Cincinnati regis tered a 15-inning 4-3 triumph over Los Angeles, and Phila delphia blanked Chicago, 2-0. Ernie Broglio of the Card inals won his 18th game even though Lindy McDaniel had to come to his aid when the Pirates scored their only run in the ninth. Vern Law 19-7, failed in his second try for his 20th victory. Bui Bruton s second triple of the game in the 11th plus a single by Del Crandall ena bled Carlton Willey of the Braves to win his first game since July 26. Willey had been kayoed 12 times in a row but he stopped the Giants on one hit after relieving starter George Brunet in the fifth. Frank Robinson brougnt the Reds their victory over the Dodgers when he singled home winning pitcher Mar shall Bridges with the win ning run in the 15th inning. It was the Reds' fourth straight victory and it was achieved at the expense of Danny McDevitt, who has lost four games and won none this season. STANDINGS AMERICAN LEAGUE W. L,. Pet.

Machen, who weighed 196, was interested only in a re match with Liston. "Liston is a good fighter." Machen said, "but he won't knock down any walls. I don't like to alibi, but I hurt my shoulder six days ago in train ing and couldn t use my right too well. I want very much to fight him again when I have two hands." Liston, the number one con tender for the crown, was unimpressed with second-rate Eddie. The bout itself was a dandy. with Liston, the plodding ag gressor and Machen playing the part of the darting thief, stealing the show occasionally with sizzling left hooks and jabs.
