Bob Purkey Strong
Man of Cincinnati
By FRED DOWN
UPI Sports Writer
The man who threw the
pitch that started the Cincin
nati Reds to their World
Series downfall is firing the
ones that are keeping the Na
tional league champions "in
. the league" this season.
' He's tough, hard-bitten Bob
Purkey and . he's the new
,' strong man of a Cincinnati
pitching staff that has been
hobbled by the slow starts of
' nominal aces Joey Jay and
'. Jim O'Toole. Jay stands 3-3
and O'Toole is 2-4 but Purkey
has reeled off five straight
" victories in which he has al
' lowed a total of 14 runs.
Purkey, whose nine-inning
gopher pitch to Roger Maris
'gave the New York Yankees
, a 3-2 win in the third game
' of the 1961 World Series and
was called the turning point
" of the classic, survived five
errors Wednesday night to
beat the Philadelphia Phillies,
7-4. As the new "stopper" of
, the Cincinnati staff, Purkey
has ended losing streaks of
two, three and four games
this year.
The win lifted the Reds'
season record to 13-13-placlng
them in a position to over
take several of the teams
bunched closely together be
hind the first-place San Fran
cisco Giants.
The St. Louis Cardinals
No-Hit Effort
Halted by Bunt
New York -I0PII- There goes
the no-hitter, there goes the
pitcher, and there goes the
ball game.
That's one of baseball's sad
dest refrains, and it never ap
plied more perfectly than It
did Wednesday to dispirited
Bill Monbouquette and the
Boston Red Sox.
"Imagine breaking up a no
hitter with a bunt!" muttered
Monbouquette, who held the
New York Yankees hitless for
6 173 innings, then fell victim
to four unearned runs that
cost him the ball game, 4-1.
Damage Don
Monbouquette departed for
I pinch-hitter in the eighth,
but all the damage had been
done by then.
Tom Tresh came up with
one out in the seventh. Trying
to drag bunt, Tresh tapped
the ball up in the air to the
left side of the mound. Mon
bouquette, charging in, lost
the ball over his head in the
sun and Tresh was on with
the first Yankee hit.
chopped the Giants' lead to
three games with a 7-3 win,
the Milwaukee Braves beat
the Pittsburgh Pirate, 4-2,
and the Los Angeles Dodgers
routed the Houston Colts, 9-2,
in other NL games.
The New York Yankees'
late-Inn. ng "lightning" topped
the Boston Red Sox, 4-1, the
Baltimore Orioles defeated
the Kansas City A's, 6-3, the
Minnesota Twins shaded the
Cleveland Indians, 2-1, the
Chicago White Sox scored a
7-6 decision after losing, 9-3,
to the Washington Senators,
and the Detroit Tigers whip
ped the Los Angeles Angels,
6-3, in American League ac
tivity. The Reds backed Purkey
with a 15-hit attack that in
cluded three singles by Frank
Robinson and Wally Post's
seventh homer. Eddie Kasko
and Johnny Edwards also had
three hits eacn lor Cincinnati
and Wes Covington homered
for the Phillies.

Stan Near
National
Loop Mark
St. Louis, Mo. -IUPII- Stan
Muslal of the St. Louis Card
inala moved to within one hit
of an all-time National league
record last night-but a pair
of pitchers posted personal
triumphs.
Cardinal hurler Curt Sim
mons, who was cast off by
Philadelphia as being "wash
ed up" proved that he still
has plenty of starch. And
Mike McCormick of the San
Francisco Giants indicated
that he would like to pattern
his career after the great Babe
Ruth.
Simmons defeated the Gi
ants, 7-3, posted his fifth con
secutive full game and victory
of the year, and became the
first pitcher to go nine innings
against the powerful San
Francisco club this season.
McCormick, one of the Gi
ants ace hurlers for the past
six years, made his first cred
ible showing of a very dismal
season. Moreover, he smashed
the first homerun.of his major
league career.
The, Mighty 'Man'
Musial went into the con
test needing just three hits to
tie Honus Wagner's all-time
National league record of
3,430 hits. He connected on
his first two times at bat to
run his total to 3.420.
McCormick went four in
nings in relief for the Giants
allowing four hits and two
runs, one of them unearned.
He walked two and struck
out one in by far his best per
formance of the year.
Simmons, who had t w o
double plays to back him up.
allowed nine hits, struck out
four and didn't walk anyone.
Sanford, who went only three
and one-third innings for ban
Francisco, was tagged with his
second defeat against three
victories.

Interest High for Mat Match Tonight
Interest is running high for

ship match at Medford Ar
mory. Fritz ton Goering pits
the crown on the block
Medford high's Black Tor
nado has the opportunity on
Friday afternoon to tuck away
the Southern Oregon confer
ence baseball banner.
A victory over the Ashland
Grizzlies in a tussle set for
3:30 p.m. at Ashland would
give the Tornado possession
of. the bunting. Ashland tri
umph would force Medford
into a playoff for the District

The Tornado is now sure of
no less than a titular tie in
the final regular season stand-
Dave Steen
Takes Back
Discus Lead
University of Oregon, Eu
gene - Oregon's Dave Steen
regained the discus lead from
teammate Jerry Stubblefield
to account for the only first
place shuffling in Northern
Division track and field rank
ings as a result of action this
past week end.
Steen tossed the discus 167
feel S'i inches last week in
the Webfoots' victory over
Oregon State to wrest the
leadership in that event away
from Stubblefield by the mar
gin of one inch.
Only other change in the
rankings came in the two
mile, where Orejon's Keith
Forman turned in a sparkling
8:55.9 effort to tie Oregon
State's Dale Story for third
place in that event.
Wind Prevents
A favoring wind during the
running of the 220 and both
hurdle races at the Oregon
Oregon State meet prevented
some sensational efforts from
being listed in the record
books.
Harry Jerome, who turned
in a counting 9.3 in the hun
dred, also came up with a
20.7 in the 220-yard dash,
while Webloot Jim Pucketl
was timed in 21.4 in the same
race. Neither time goes into
the record books, however,
because of the aiding wind.
Jerry Tarr was timed in
13.5 In the high hurdles, equal
to the American collegiate
record held by Dick Attlcsey
of USC, and Mel Renfro of
the Ducks came up with a
14.0 effort In the same race.
Again the excessive wind nul
lified both times.
