Newspaper Page Text2 D THURSDAY, JUNE 7, lilt MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON NY Mets Drag Casey Stenge To Lowest Point of Career By FRED DOWN UPI Sperii Writer It's official today that the New York Mets have dragged Casey Stengel to the lowest point of his 50-year career in baseball. The suspicion that this might happen had been grow ing on people for some time, but It wasn't until Wednesday night when the Philadelphia Phillies extended ithe Mets' losing streak to 17 games with 2-0 and 2-1 victories that it became as plain as 71-year-old Casey's drooping shoul ders. No team that Casey ever managed or played for ever lost 17 in a row before and it doesn't help the old man, either, when he glances over at the American league stand ings and notes that the New York Yankees - tne Ciu which fired him after the 1960 season - are right up there In first place as usual. May Get Worse Things could become worse before they get Better lor Stengel, too, because now the Mets are only six losses short of the modern big league ree nrd of 23 straight suffered by the 1961 Phi lies. The 17 straight defeats are also the most ever suffered by any New York big league learn, Cal McLish Ditched a seven- hitter to blank the Mets In the first game of Wednesday's iwi-nishler and then Art Ma- haffey turned In a four-hitter to complete the sweep. Tony Taylor figured in both Phila delphia runs in the opener and Wes Covington singled in the ninth Inning to drive in the decisive run of the night cap.

Ralph Terry's four-hit pitching and back -to -back sixth inning homers by Roger Maris and Johnny Blanchard paved the way for the Yankee victory which tagged Jim Grant with his first defeat of the season. Dedgtrs Mot Up The Los Angeles Dodgers moved to within a half-game of first place In the National league when they completed their suspended game of Tues day night with an 8-3 win and then downed the Pittsburgh Pirates, 5-3, in a regularly scheduled night game. The Chicago Cubs defeated the San Francisco Giants, 4-3, the St. Louis Cardinals downed the Cincinnati Reds, 4-3, and the Milwaukee Braves beat the Houston Colts, 6-3, in other games. In other AL games, the De troit Tigers beat the Boston Red Sox, 3-2, after a 2-1 loss, the Washington Senators edged out the Baltimore Orioles, 2-1, the Los Angeles Angeli shaded the Chicago White Sox, 1-0, and the Min nesota Twins topped the Kansas City Athletics, 7-0. Ron Fiirly's two-run sev enth inning homer snapped a 1-1 tie and greased the way for Joe Moeller's fourth win of the season and the Dodgers' 17th victory in their last 19 games. Sandy Koufax wrap ped up Don Drysdale's ninth win with a hitless, two-strike- out ninth inning that com pleted the suspended game. Walks Four Men Don Larsen walked four men In the ninth inning to force in the Cubs' winning run and end the Giants five came winning streak. The Giants had tied the score in the top of the ninth on Jim Davenport's triple and a sin gle by Jose Pagan. Don Ells worth picked up his fourth win. Larry Jackson scattered nine hits to win his fifth game for the Cardinals, whose win ning run was forced over the plate by Joey Jay in the eighth inning. Stan Musial had two hits for the Cardinals and Vada Pinson and Don Blasingame two each for the Red. Hank Aarnn drove in. two runs with a double and a triple and scored two himself to power the Braves' Lew Burdette to his third win Burdetle allowed 12 hits but didn't walk a batter. Frank Malzone's ninth-Inning homer gave the Red Sox' Bill Monbouquetle his fourth win and tagged Detroit's Phil Regan with his third defeat. The Tigers won the nightcap, however, behind the six-hit pitching of Jim Bunning when Dick Brown squeezed over the winning run in the 11th. Scores Twice Joe ' Hicks, subbing for slump-ridden Jimmy Piersall, hit a homer and triple and scored both Washington runs to deal Robin Roberts his sec ond loss with the Orioles. Claude Osteen pitched a six hitter for Washington. Ken McBrides seven-hitter and pinch-hitter Tom Burgess' iiinth-inning sacrifice fly with the bases filled enabled the Angels to spoil a fine pitching effort by Chicago s Ray Her bert, who struck out six and yielded only four hits in all Jim Katt s flve-hittcr and two-run triple by George Banks led the Twins to their easy victory. Jerry Walker tagged for six runs and eight hits in 4 innings, lost his third game against six vic tories.

Portlanders Make Two Hits Pay By RAYMOND L. ANDREWS United Press International John Tsitouris, San Diego pitcher, would be happy to talk about his two-hitter today but you wouldn t get much in the way of conversation on the same subject from Danny Rivas of Tacoma Tsitouris limited Spokane to but two bingles In Pacific Coast league action Wednes day night for a 4-0 Padre win which extended their streak to five straight. Rivas, who went eight in nings, also allowed but two hits in the Tacoma-Portland nightcap but the Beavers made them pay off for a 2-1 verdict to go with a 1-0 win in the opener. Seattle took Vancouver 5-3 and Hawaii nicked the league- leading Salt Lake City Bees 7-6 in 10 innings In other games. Tommy Harper Iced things for San Diego with a two-run homer in the seventh to go with single runs in the first and fourth. Tsitouris had more trouble with umpire Paul Kelly than with Spokane's hitters. Kelly warned him about throwing beanballs and Ron Keffner. San Diego skipper, disagreed so heartily he was asked to leave in the fifth after a fili buster over the matter. Portland won its opener over Tacoma when Tony Bar- tirome doubled in the game's lone run in the sixth. Jim Archer and Dan Osinksi teamed to stop the Giants on four hits with Archer the win ner. Jay Hankins won the second game for Portland with a solo homer in the sixth. The only other Beaver hit was col lected by Bill Kearn in the fourth. He bunted safely, moved to second on a throw ing error, advanced to third on an infield out and scored on a sacrifice fly. Cleveland 000 000 0000 4 0 New York 000 002 03x S 9 1 Grant. Allen H .

Tex. - IUNI Recent rains had the 6.000-yard Aus tin Country Club golf course in crisp shape today as 30 proettes teed off for the first annual $7,500 Civilan Open. A pair of former Austin schoolgirls were t h e senti mental favorites with the gal. lery. They were Betsy Rawls, who was a Phi Beta Kappa at the University of Texas, and Sandra Haynie of Garland, Tex., the 17-year-old former Austin High school student who joined the pro-tour this year. By JOHN EGGERS Athlatie Publicity Director Oregon Stat University Oregon State University, Corvallis (Special) - One gone and three coming-that's Med- ford's latest contribution to Oregon State's football pro gram. The departee, of course, is versatile Neil Plumley. now in the Army in California (Third Brigade, Fort Ord) following hu graduation from OSU. Those still around, and expected to be main cogs for the Beavers next fall are Jim and Al Funston and Dan Sieg. Plumley left a brilliant ca reer behind at Oregon State, both academically and athlet ically. His most recent accom plishment was winning the Business and Technology Wall Street Journal award, given to the graduating senior in business who demonstrates high scholarship and out standing leadership ability. The big 6-6, 240-pound tac kle, in addition to his grid prowess, still holds the school record in track for the shot put at 54 feet 7 inches. Jim Funston Regular The Funston brothers are destined for plenty of action when football resumes next fall, as is ace defensive back Sieg. Jim is already a two- year veteran who served as understudy to Capt. Mike last season. He nailed down regular's berth in spring drills. Al currently has been a right guard, alternating with veterans Rose Cariaga and Ron Doman, though only a sophomore. He was one of the top linemen on last year's strong Rook squad, after win ning all-state honors in high school. Sieg, who has good quick ness and fine imagination, was used primarily on defense in spring practice - as a defen. sive halfback. He, too, will only be a sophomore, but proved as a freshman his var sity potential. Undoubtedly there will be many times next fall when all three ex-Medford prep stars are in the same lineup. ah are excellent students, In. sofar as grades are concerned, and that's always a welcome bit of information to the coaching staff. Plumley appar ently set a good example they an intend to keep. Coach Tommy Prolhro and his Beavers face another rugged schedule in 1962, start- Ing off with Iowa State at Portland and journeying to Iowa the following weekend. With versatile athletes like the Funstons and Sieg, how ever, they hope to get the job done. REJOINS WARRIORS San Francisco -(UPII- Eddie Gottlieb rejoined thp trans planted Philadelphia Warriors today as general manager only two weeks after selling out as their owner, but the status of coach Frank McGuire re mained in doubt.
