Vancouver Shrinks
Seattle's Margin
By RAYMOND t. ANDREWS
United Press International
t The Vancouver Mounties
are making a run for first
place in the Pacific Coast
league and their formula is a
simple one - Just beat the
league leaders.
They did it again Sunday
with a 5-2 victory over front
running Seattle which saw its
league lead shrink to just one
game. It was Vancouver's
third straight win over Seattle
and the two teams have a
double bill coming up today.
In other action, Salt Lake
City edged San Diego 6-9 and
Tacoma topped Hawaii 2-1 for
its fifth straight victory. The
scheduled Portland at Spo
kane doublesheader was post
poned because of rain and the
second Hawaii-Tacoma game
was called in the seventh
with the score 1-1 to allow
Hawaii time to catch a plane
for the Islands.
George Bamberger and
Phil Paine combined to pitch
Vancouver to its victory as
14 Rainiers wilted on the
basepaths.
Seattle outhit the Mounties
by a 12-9 margin but could
Welterweight
Bout Won By
Fernandez
New York - (UPD - Stocky,
black-haired Jorge Fernandez
of Argentina moved toward a
welterweight title shot by
beating tall Ted Wright of
Detroit with a combination
body - and - head attack Sat
urday for a unanimous 10
round decision in their na
tionally televised fight at St.
Nicholas arena.
The victory earned Fernan
dez another TV fight with ex
champion Benny (Kid) Paret
at Madison Square Garden on
July 15. Should Paret lose to
Fernandez that night, he may
be replaced by Jorge as chal
lenger against the June 3 title
bout between champion Emile
Griffith and Gaspar Ortega at
Los Angeles.
Fernandez, favored at 7-5
and weighting 150V4 pounds
to Wright's 150, won in a con
vincing manner although he
suffered a gashed left brow
and a cut below his left eye
in the fifth round.
score only single runs in the
first and second when short
stop Curt Jenson belted a solo
homer. Vancouver matched
that with single markers in
the first and third.
Ed Charles lofted a sacri
fice fly in the fourth that sent
in the eventual winning run
for Vancouver although the
Mounties came back with
single runs in the seventh and
eighth to insure the victory.
Seattle went through four
pitchers with the last one,
Arnie Farley, giving up his
first earned run in 16 innings
in the eighth.
Dusty Rhodes drove in both
Tacoma runs in the Giant vic
tory over Hawaii. His single
in the fourth sent one across
and he singled in the winning
run in the bottom of the
eighth,
Dom Zanni took care of the
pitching chores with a nifty
sixnitter.
The second game featured
solo homers by Bill Hain of
Tacoma and Jim Small of
Hawaii. This one will be re
played later in the season
The second game featured

Sanders Victor
In Hot Springs
Hot Springs, Ark. - UPB -Doug,
don't - you're embar
rassing me.
It was Mrs. Doug Sanders
talking, minutes after her hus
band had won the $20,000 Hot
Springs Open Sunday with a
15-under-par 273.
Sanders, still checking his
scorecard on the 18th green,
had asked his wife if she was
happy they came here. The
dark-haired beauty gave him
a smiling "yes." Then Sand
ers good-naturedly reminded
her she was terribly unhappy
last Monday. That's when she
pleaded embarrassment. On
Monday she and Sanders
were waiting for a plane to
Acapulco when J. Edwin
Carter, National PGA tourna
ment director, called five
minutes before takeoff and
persuaded Sanders to come to
Hot Springs.
Sanders not only came, he
conquered. He fired three 68's
and a 69.
His two chief competitors
were the other two members
of his threesome, Jerry Steel
smith and Dave Ragan, who
were five and six-under par
respectively to tie for second
at 274.
