White Sox Deal For Maxwell, Dean Stone Chicago-fUrii-Chicago White Sox brass felt today they got the best of the deal in trading Bob Farley and Russ Kemmer er to get Charlie Maxwell and Dean Stone. Maxwell, 35, came from the Tigers in a waiver deal for the 25-year-old Farley.

San Francisco, sparked by Willie Mays' alert base run ning and some surprising de fense work by leftfielder Willie McCovey, moved to within a half-game of the league-leading Dodgers. Mays set up the decisive run by stealing third base in the third inning and McCovey started a double play in the fifth after catching a sinking liner by losing pitcher Jim Ma looey. Billy O'Dell went all the way for his eighth vic tory. Aaron, Mathews Pace Braves Hank Aaron drove in three runs with a single and a homer and Eddie Mathews drove home two others as the Braves overcame a four-run deficit.

Eugene rose up to squelch the Dodgers with a 14-hit as sault in a regular Northwest league fracas which displayed the Class B brand of pro fessional baseball to an esti mated 2,000 Rogue valley fans. The Emerald's Dick Estelle, who went into the tangle with an unimpressive 2-11 pitching record, chucked a five-hitter at the Salemites and helped on offense with a single and a triple. He scored two runs and blasted one across. Dick Dietz, bonus player catcher, paced the Em attack. He doubled twice, singled once and batted home two runs. Script Tossed Out For five cantos the engage ment was played as if to a script. Then Eugene banged over a go-ahead sixth-inning score and in the seventh chukker completely threw away the book. The Ems at this stage battered relief pitcher Tom Murray for four hits and five runs. And, these markers put triumph in the bag. Murray, relieving the Dodg er's highly-prized starter, Dar rell Peters, who was charged with his third loss, came in at the start of the seventh. He struck out Dietz but gave up a single to Wally Cockrell and walk to Stan Patykula. Joe McLaughlin followed with a safety and Arley Kangas and Dick Estelle belted back to back three-base knocks. That put four runs across the platter and Murray gave way to hurler Ken Page. Car los Dore grounded out but Don Pope singled home Es telle who was Murray's re sponsibility. Eugene got off to a shaky start which allowed the game's lone unearned run. Lou Ertle was safe on a bunt single in the first panel and made it to second base on Estelle's bad throw on a pick off attempt. With two out Dick Bogard popped the ball. The fly ball hopped out of third baseman Patykula's glove and Ertle raced home for the score. The Ems bounced back in the bottom of the frame on a double by Pope, a wild pitch, a walk and a single by Dietz. It was three up and three down for both clubs in the next two stanzas. In the fourth Bogard's hit, two of the seven walks Estelle is sued and a sacrifice flyout by Bob Cox scored a run for Salem. But Eugene made it two-all on a two-bagger down the third base line by Dietz and one-base socks by Wally Cockrell and Patykula. Doubles by Vic Pagel and Bill Kelso put Salem on top 3 to 2 in the top of the fifth inning Eugene tied it again PICK A SIZE SB PICK A H " aval n y NCWSIZI Lots of pe 3 J.rlw tmi- E DOOQC DART.

The Ems in this canto had a runner forced at the plate and left three men stranded. In the sixth session Estelle singled and advanced to sec ond on a Dore groundout. Don Pope two-baggered. Calero doubled, scoring Estelle. Pope tried to make it home but was thrown out at the plate by centerfielder Pagel. While the big seventh in ning splurge settled the issue, Salem did bid in the eighth inning when Estelle walked two batters with no one out. Salem then went down on two strikeouts and a flyout. The Dodgers had the bases full with two down in the ninth. Hard-hitting marked the contest. Six of the 14 Eugene hits were for extra bases. Sal em had two doubles among its five blows. A clout by the Ems' Dietz was an automatic double when it bounced over the right field fence some 410 feet from home. Pope, Calero, Cockrell along with Estelle for Eugene and Pagel of Salem each had two hits. Estelle recorded seven strikeouts. Peters, who has won eight tilts, gave up nine hits along with the first four runs before leaving the game. Fielding Jewel Fielding gem of the night was centerfielder Dore's long run for a one-handed shoe string snare of a fly ball off Pagel's hat. Each team left 10 men on base. The game was one of four Eugene is scheduled to play at White City this summer. Eugene will meet Salem again on Aug. 2 and Lewiston, Ida ho, and Tri-City, Wash., in later August games. They also will be In regular league play as the Northwest loop seeks to stir Rogue valley interest in the circuit. Trouble with the record player, a warped record ver sion of the Star Spangled Ban ner and a faux pas with the lights marked the start of the game. But, these things were pretty well forgotten as the fray progressed. The lights would not go on by the usual push of the press box button because a switch elsewhere was off. The crowd fell short of hopes of the sponsoring Cen Pollard Wins At Salt Lake Art Pollard of Medford, representing Oregon at the Inter-Mountain championship modified races at Salt Lake City last week end, was high point man.

Eight straight hits helped account for seven runs during a wild second inning as Port land bopped the Giants, 9-3. Meanwhile, the yo-yo race for first place continued una bated as Vancouver topped San Diego 6-5 with an unearn ed run in the seventh in the only other game played. The loss left the Padres and Salt Lake City in a virtual tie for first place with the Bees enjoying a lead of but two percentage points.
