Newspaper Page TextAngel Hit Slump Ires Bill Rigney By Art Spandtr United Preii International Los Angeles - WPn - Normal ly cheerful Bill Rigney was about as irate as a baseball manager could get Tuesday night-and no one could blame him. His Los Angeles Angels, looking pitifully inept at the plate, had lost their fourth straight game-this one 3-2 to the league-leading Cleveland Indians. The loss left Los Angeles with a total of only four runs and 14 hits in the last 27 in nings and put Rigney face to face with a horrible realiza tion for any manager. The Ansels are in a slump. "I'll say we're in a slump," he snapped after Los Angeles had picked up only four hits off Indians rookie pitcher Ron Taylor and reliever Frank Funk. "We're taking the good pitches and swinging at the bad ones, and that's how you spell the word slump." Rigney called a special bat ting practice for this after noon and promised he would alter his starting lineup be fore tonight's second game of the series with Cleveland. The Los Angeles skipper wasn't sure who would start - or where they would play - ex cept for his pitcher. What need was the change of luck that took place Tues day night for Cleveland rook ie cenlerfielder Ty Cline. Batting only .105 going into the game, with two hits in 19 at bats, Cline rammed two doubles and a game-winning triple. Washington, Lone Pin Win Washington and Lone Pine were winners yesterday in grade school makeup baseball tilts. Washington beat Wilson 12 to 9 and Lone Pine won from Lincoln 16 to 4.

Mets Eye Aid By Trade Route Cincinnati, Ohio (UPII The last-place New York Mets are about to obtain some help via the trade route, possibly to day, although club President George Weiss said it is "noth ing earthshaking." Without identifying any of the players involved or the other clubs either, Weiss ad mitted one deal is "all set" and that the Mets had another in the making. The general guessing was that the Mets, who still owe Milwaukee a player from last December's Frank Thomas deal, will get pitcher Bob Buhl from the Braves. In Milwaukee, General Manager Johnny McHalc of the Braves did not deny that Buhl's name has come up in trade conversation with the Mets but insisted "we don't have any deal made with them." "I talked with George Weiss yesterday morning," McHale said, "and it was like a num ber of talks we've had before. There was nothing special J about it. If the Mets have a deal already made, it's not with us." I The Braves have been ex-, periencing their own troubles although "we don't feel we're i desperate," McHale pointed out. champion will find out when he tries it. The program will be fea tured by the return match for the northwest tag team cham pionship, won two weeks ago by Rocky Columbo and Billy Whitcwolf in a rip-roaring af fair that saw Columbo end up in Rogue Valley hospital. Frilz Von Goering, who was threatened with suspen sion by the local wrestling commission after slamming Columbo into a steel ring post, has promised that he and his partner, .Kurt Von Poppen heim, will leave nothing un turned to regain the champi onship trophy. Von PoppenVelm and Whitewolf will meet in the one-fall opener, starling at 8:30 p.m. Doors will open an hour earlier and ringside re serve seat tickets are on sale at Lamport's porting Goods store in Medford.

By JAMES BOW UPI Sports Writer The Salt Lake Bees are no longer alone at the top of the Pacific Coast league after a walloping 13-3 defeat Tues day night by the San Diego Padres. Second-place Seattle moved in to share top honors with the Bees after beating the last-place Mounties 2-0 at Vancouver. The Padres piled up nine runs in the first two innings at San Diego to give Salt Lake its third loss in nine games. Harry Anderson slammed a homer in the first inning for the Padres with two team mates on base. San Diego scored four times in the open ing frame and in the second inning Ken Walters hit a homer with the bases loaded. In other Pacific Coast league games Tuesday, the Portland Beavers spoiled Ta coma's home opener with a 7-3 victory. And the Hawaii Islanders slipped through with three runs in the bottom of the ninth for a 3-2 win over Snokane at Honolulu. With the bases loaded and two out, Hawaii's Stan Palys reversed the Casey story and singled. Rightfielder Stan Johnson charged the ball but it scooted by him and rolled to the fence. .Another last-minute effort came from Seattle after the Rainiers and lhe Vancouver Mounties remained scoreless for nine Innings. Seattle left fielder Dave Mann ruined Vancouver's home opener with a run-scoring single and another run scored on Tom Umphlctt's sacrifice fly. Seattle's 18-year-old start er Dave Morehead held the mound until the seventh In ning, when he was relieved by Merlin Nippert who went for the win. George Bam berger started for Vancouver and allowed four hits in seven innings. In contrast to the arid in nings at Vancouver, San Di ego's deluge of runs was the highest score in Pacific Coast league play so far this season. Salt Lake's Floyd Weaver was lagged with his first loss of the season after giving up seven runs in 2 22 innings. John Briggs gained his first win of the season for the Padres, although he was touched for a homer by Ton Washington in the fourth. Each team collected 10 hits. iwinoiu, cnico oauers poieo , pitched .
