JtXY 6. 196Z Tribe, Angels Tied in AL; Pirates Keep Up Hot Pace By TOM MORIARTY UPI Sports Writer Don't try and sell the Cleve land Indians and the Pitts burgh Piratos that old saw about the Fourth of July major league pacesetters winding up in the World Scries. They're Not Buying History might be on the side of the Los Angeles Dodgers and the Los Angeles Angels because they reached the holi day milestone with half-game leads. However, the Indiana and Pirates feel they're going to have a lot to say about the pennant races in the second half of the season. The Indians climbed into a flat-footed tie with the idle Angels for the American league lead Thursday night when they nipped the Detroit Tigers, 7-6, on Don Dillard's two-out, ninth inning home run. Scored Seventh Straight The streaking Pirates, look ing more and more like the 1960 world champions, scored their seventh straight victory by blanking the Philadelphia Phillies, 5-0, behind the six hit pitching of Al McBcan. It's hard to predict which club faces the toughest ob stacles in its pennant push. The Indians, of course, still must contend with the New York Yankees, who are onlv a MedfordJ3Tribune IIP! LA Angel Baseball Fans Wondering About Magic Los Angeles-(Uro-The stand ings don't lie and tonight the Los Angeles Angels open their defense of a first place tie in the American league when they start a ,19-game home stand with the Boston Red Sox. The Cleveland Indians jumped back into a first place tie with the Angels Thursday night by edging Detroit, 7-7, on Don Dillard's ninth inning home run despite three con secutive home runs by Rocky Colavito. Los Angeles baseball fans spent all of Thursday wonder ing by what magic manager Bill Rigney and general man ager Fred Haney achieved the feat of boosting the An gels to the league lead on the Fourth of July when tradition says the team that leads is headed for the pennant. And to kick off their home stand, the Angels arranged for a natural-having Bo Be linsky of no-hit fame meet the other league pitcher with a no-hitter to his credit, Earl Wilson. Belinsky has been hamper- Trial Race Won Bv Weatherly Newport. R. I. (UPIl Emil (Bus) Mosbacher. a veteran Long Island Sound yachtsman with a roomful of sailing trophies, was to attempt to steer the yacht Weatherly to her fifth consecutive victory today in the America's Cup trials off Newport. Weatherly, a blue-hulled beauty who underwent an ov erhaul earlier this year 'o become a red hot contender, met the 1958 cup defender, Columbia, while the sleek newcomer to international racing, Nefcrtiti, pairs off with four-time loser Easter ner. Weatherly handed East erner her fourth loss in as many days Thursday when she swamped Chandler Hov ey's entry by 10 minutes, 30 seconds, the greatest margin of victory of any of the con tests, in the four days of the match racing. Nefertiti, still smarting un der the drubbing administer ed on Wednesday by Mos bacher and Weatherly, haul ed across the finish line Thursday 3 minutes, 40 sec onds ahead of Columbia. ed the past week by a pulled namstring muscle but Angel trainers said he should be ready for tonight's classic pitching battle. Belinsky was Wilson's pitching opponent at Boston the night of June 26 when the Red Sox hurler notched his 2-0 no-hitter. That made Belinsky only the fifth pitch er in modern baseball history to be involved on both sides of a no-hitter the same season. Belinsky hurled his no-hit game May 5 at Chavez Ravine stadium by the same 2-0 score that Wilson had. Wilson's win was the only victory scored this season by the Red Sox over the Angels who now hold an 8-1 edge over Boston and one more decision will clinch the sea son's scries for the Angels. The club opens its home stand without the guidance of manager Rigney who on the off day Thursday was no tified of the death of his father,' George Rigney, in Northern California. Rigney left the team to return to his home in Walnut Creek, Calif. BOWLING BEAR CKKEK MIXED Merry MIx-Up i2i3-ini r Jerrv Cottinfrhani 454; Lntlilops (11-211 1, W. H. McCalrb 52ft.

And the Pir ates, despite their streak, still are five games back of the Dodgers, who opened a lVs game lead over San Francisco by cuffing the Giants, 11-3, Thursday. The Indians' latest victory over the Tigers was another squeaker that must have left Detroit manager Bob Schef- fing muttering to himself. The Tigers, who dropped a pair of extra-inning games to Cleveland Wednesday, wiped out a five-run deficit to tie the score at 6-6 in the seventh inning on Rocky Colavito's third consecutive homer of the game. Homered In Ninth Dillard, who broke the Tigers' back with a 13th in ning grand slammer in Wednesday's second game, waited until the ninth this time before parking a l-and-0 pitch by Ron Kline into the stands. Dillard entered the game in the fifth inning when Al Luplow suffered a pulled thigh muscle. Before leaving, Luplow hit two-run homer. John Ro mano added a three-run blast to stake the Indians to their early lead. Colavito, who now has 20 homers this season, hit his first two of the game off Pete Ramos and added an other off Frank Funk. McBean struck out five and issued only one walk in blank ing the Phils for his eighth victory of the campaign. The Pirates scored all their runs off Jim Owens, who lasted only two innings. Dick Groat, who has hiked his average to 322 during the Bucs' winning streak, hit his first homer of the season to climax a three- run second inning. Drysdale Won 15th Don Drysdale of the Dodg ers became the majors' first 15-game winner, scattering eight hits and striking out eight Giants. Among big Don's strikeout victims were Or lando Cepeda three times and Willie Mays twice. Loser Mike McCormick, who lasted only five innings, gave up homers to Willie Davis, Ron Fairly, Tommy Davis and Frank Howard. The Baltimore Orioles scored three runs in the eighth inning to down the Chicago White Sox, 5-4, in the only other game on Thurs day's thin major league sched ule. Jackie Brandt hit his 11th homer off loser Frank Bau mann in the seventh inning and singled home the Orioles' winning run in the next frame. Skinny Brown allowed only one hit during 3 1-3 in nings of relief work to pick up the victory.

They car ried on to defeat Wcnatchee 4-3 in 13 innings. Lewiston topped Salem 5-2 and Eugene and Yakima played to a 9-9 tie in 10 in nings in a game that docs not count in the standings and will be replayed from the be ginning. Although Johnson's streak ended at 26 str.-ight games, a league record, he walked in the Tri-City 13th and was sac rificed to second. Don Ding werth then tripled him home and Dingwerth crossed on a single by Irv Knowles. It was needed, too, because Nelson Mathews of Wcnatchee hit a solo homer in the bottom of the 13th.

Without this bill there is a good chance that the burea of reclamation and a group of farmers will get control of more and more of some of the best habitat in the Pacific flyway. THE ANGLER'S LOG There have been a ouple of reports of arge brown trout being caught in the Rogue river below Laurelhurst. This isn't loo unexpected in the upper river, but the last re port came from below Trail and the fish weighed 4'2 i pounds. This is a story that I came trom a serious, nonosi : fisherman who wouldn't lie J any more than I would. I Diamond Lake Is still slow. On the 4th there were 42 boats out of j lhe lodge lhat brought back 42 fish. The fish were over 18 inches long and were caught by trolling a FF&W as deep a it was possible. There doesn't seem to be too much weed in the lake, but things ( aren't happening yet. Km if rani Line i nere are re ports that some trout are still taking at the mouths of Sampson and Emigrant creeks. Stilllishing with worms is lhe favorite style. Elih Lake The fishing is good. The bigger fish seem to he lak ing Thrv are 16 to 1R inch rain bow that prefer FFAW or still ishmg with eggs and worms Howard I'ralrie fishing is good Luck seems to be fairly consistent with all types of gear taking fish. Quite a few fish are being caught that go over 21 inches The big gest so far this year measured 25 inches. Average sir.e Is 12 to 15 . inches Fly fishing has been most ' productive at the north end of the ; lake livid Lake Fishing has been fair. A small bov caught a 22-inch-er yrsterdav while sttllfishlng off the bank wilh worms. Some limila are being taken every da v. Klamath Lake ! starting to come out of the il' (drums again. It was sood last "iiursday and 1 Friday, then It copied off until yesterday when the fish started hitting again. Fish of two to four pounds are being taken Andy reekers and FF&W or FF&fl are favorites Willow Lake Has slowed down. The kokanee are still hitting and they are big. THE OPTIMIST'S CORNER With the end of the salmon season just past and the be ginning of the fall steelhead season only two months away, there is a good chance that some fishermen will be rest ing for awhile. Most likely the weather will be getting so hot lhat not much of any other kind of work will be possible. GOOD LUCK! nicked Spokane ,i-2.
