Eugene collected five runs in the fo irth inning to take Tri-City. Julio Linares and Jose Colero each had two-run bizarre contest that saw the Braves victimized by such oddball developments as a I nullified balk and Henry Aaron's failure to touch a base while in reverse.

Dave Marrs doubled in three runs in the eighth and the big smash in the ninth was a bases - loaded homer by Bill Myer. of the year Manager Birdie Tcbbetts of the Braves tried again today when he opened with Bob Hendley (9-10), who was to face Billy O'Dell (15-11) in a clash of portsiders. Juan Marichal allowed the posting his 17th win against 9 losses. One of the blows was a three-run homer by Del Crandall that tied the score at 3-3 in the seventh inning. But the Giants broke the lie in their half of the Jrame when Orlando Cepeda sent Chuck Hiller from first to third with a hot single and Felipe Alou brought him across while using his great speed to beat out a fielder's choice. Then came the eighth in ning and the mighty Mathews stepped in with two out and pinch-hitter Gus Bell on first by virtue of a walk. Mathews drove one of Marichal's pitches out to dead center field and the ball was about to glide over the fence when Mays leaped up and dragged it in with one hand. Ump Reversed That rf-sn't all that hap pened to Milwaukee, which had gone into the game with a record of six wins in its last eight outings. With men on first and second in the first inning, Iirst nase umpire Augie Donatelli ruled that Marichal had committed a balk. The runners moved into scoring position, then were shuffled back when the three other arbiters ruled that Don atelli was off base. Henry Aaron and Lee Maye then hit long flics that would have brought in runs had the balk not been killed. Aaron wound up the victim of a double play in the fourth when he raced from first base past second on Maye's long fly to Mays, but forgot to touch the center bag while on the way back to first after the catch. So shortstop Jose Pagan took Mays' throw in and stepped on the sack to retire the side. 1.INF.SCORKS: (Isl same, 7 innlnt) San Diego 02:1 003 (1 R in 2 Vancouver Km 123 5 12 12 3 Flavin.

Quick rep'.j ol Fred Spiegel-' berg. Black Tornado head coach is, "We'll outnumber j them." j Spienelberg reported a turn- i out of 1 15 aspirants. He counts ; 22 lettermen. With all the numbers, how-, ever, the Tornado mentor docs face a problem. He cm put only 1 1 men on the field at one time. Seriously, Spiegel berg points out that his squad is starting out with a little more experience than in 1961. In player heft the squad is small er than last year's contingent. After the first couple of days of practice, he reported, there was not a 200 pounder on hand. The head co.ieh takes 1 his lack of size philosophically. "Just so they can move," he remarked. Lots of fundamentals and lots of conditioning are pres ently in order. Offensive plays are being given out in antici pation of the opening game at The Dalles on Sept. 14. A scrimmage is planned this Saturday. Twice a day prac tices will be held only this week. Coaches must aitend "in service" classes for teach- I ers next week. School opens on the following week. Spiegelberg regards end as the Tornado's best position. Lettermen back are Gibb Mit chell, Jack Forde, Roy Shaw, Lloyd Hammons and Gary Griffin, all seniors. Mitchell was a regular both ways last year, while Hammons saw regular offensive duty and Griffin was a bulwark as a regular linebacker. Shaw saw much duly. At tackles lettermen are John Mee and Larry Sander, seniors, and Chuck Kimball, a junior. Mee was a regular last year until hurt. Sander has been shifted from end.
