2 B WEDNESDAY. SEPTEMBER 12. 1962 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, OREGON Maury Wills Swipes 90th Base as LA Dodgers Retain Lead; Yanks Boost Margin By MILTON RICHMAN UPI Sporii Writer Maury Wills is going like 90 and Yogi Berra is going on 38, but at their present rate they'll wind up in a dead heat - in the World Series. Wills, who looks like a cinch to crack Ty Cobb's mod ern major league record of SS stolen bases within a single season, pilfered , his 90th for the Los Angeles Dodgers Tuesday night In a 3-1 victory over the Chicago Cubs. The victory kept the Dodg ers a half-game ahead of the surging San Francisco Giants, who had blanked the Pitt burgh Pirates, 2-0, earlier in the auernoon. Whereas Wills helped keep the Dodgers atop the National league with his feet, Yogi en ' abled the Yankees to boost their American league lead to four games with his bat. Homer Breaks Tie Berra led off the 10th in. ning with a home run that broke a tie and led the Yanks to an 8-7 victory over the De troit Tigers. Yogi's homer was his 10th of the season and it came off rookie Bob Humphreys to end a three-hour and 40-mlnute marathon in which each team employed six pitchers. Jim Bouton, the last one to work for the Yankees, was credited with the victory. Berra, who entered the game as an eighth inning catching replacement, also de livered a pinch sacrifice fly to drive in one of three Yankee runs in the eighth which gave them a 7-5 lead. The Tigers tied the score In the bottom of the eighth on Dick McAullffe's homer, a single by Dick Brown and Chlco Fernandez' triple. Tony Kubek and Bill Skowron hom ered earlier in the contest, Wins 13th Game Stan Williams notched his 13th Victory for the Dodgers. holding the Cubs to three hits during the eight innings he worked. Ron Perranoskl came in in the ninth after the first two Cub batters reached base safely on successive errors by Wills. Wills opened the first in ning with a single, stole sec ond and scored the Dodgers' first run on a sacrifice plus a wild throw by loser Bob Buhl. Wills, who has now hit safe ly In 19 straight games, singled home the Dodgers' final run in the fourth. The Cincinnati Reds re mained within 5V4 games of the top by beating the St Louis Cardinals, 6-2, in the only other NL games. In the American league, where only two other games were scheduled, the Los An geles Angels took over second place with a 9-0 triumph over the Minnesota Twins, who dropped to third place, and the Cleveland Indians beat the Washington Senators, 3-0. Aims At Record Jack Sanford won his 16th straight and 22nd of the sea son for the Giants with an eight -hit effort against the Pirates. Sanford now is with in three wins of Rube Mar- quard's modern record of 19 straight in one season. Felipe Alou's 25th homer in the sixth inning was all that Sanford needed. Alou has hit safely in 11 of his last 12 official times up. Bob Purkey notched his 21st victory for the still hopeful Reds with a three-hitter over the Cardinals. Two of the hits Purkey allowed were homers, one by Stan Musial and anoth er by Ken Boyer. Don Blasingame drove In two of Cincinnati's first three runs off loser Rob Gibson and, Eddie Kasko supplied the finishing tquph. with a three- run homer in the ninth. Eli Grba and. Don Lee com bined to fashion a four-hitter for the Aogpls,. the victory going to Grba, who yielded all of Minnesota's hits during the seven innings he worked.

Giants Launch Series on Road Cincinnati -IUPII- Lefthand er Billy Pierce, with only three days rest, was tabbed to start tonight for the sec ond place San Francisco Gi ants who opened a tough 11 game road trip against the Cincinnati Reds. ( The 35 -year -old Pierce, bringing a 14-5 mark to the hill, was faced by Cincinnati's sharp Joey Jay who has won 21 and cropped 12.

"It's gotta be just that," the beefy right-hander said Tues day, sitting in front of his locker and cooling off with a can of beer. "I don't care how good a guy Is. If he's real good, maybe he'll win five or six in a row. But 16? It's ridiculous. You only do that when you have a lot of luck and good bullpen." Sanford, although banged for eight hits, hurled his sec ond shutout of the year Tues day while turning back the Pittsburgh Pirates, 2-0. It was Sanford's 22nd win of the season and "who'd of thunk it" last June 13 when his mark skidded to 6-6 at Cincinnati? The bullpen has been a good friend of chunky Jack's as he is the first to agree Since beginning his skein on June 17 against the Cardinals, he has completed only six of the 20 starts. But he feels that he is pitching better, al though he doesn't have as much speed as when the sea son opened. "I'm not as fast but I'm con trolling the ball better," he said. "1 think I've given up only two walks in the last three games." Sanford hit the road with the Giants today sporting a total of 231 1-3 innings under his broad belt this season. Thus he seems a cinch to sur pass the 237 mark which he compiled In 1957 as a work horse with the Philadelphia Phillies. Red Hat Days Soon To Start Portland - "Red Hat Days," a program sponsored by public and private groups throughout the state, is call ed to the sportsmen's atten tion as the hunting seasons for 1962 get under way. A symbol of good sportsmanship, the Red Hatters remind all outdoor users to watch their outdoor manners as insurance to public hunting. Phil Schneider, state game director, reminded all hunters that game is the property of the people, but many of the hunting areas are private property. Hunting on such property Is a privilege, not a right, and this privilege can be withdrawn by the land owner. The pledge of the Red Hat program is threefold: To be law abiding; respect the rights and property of others: and to be careful with fire and fire arms. "You don't have to wear the red hat," said director Schneider, "but you are serv ing your interests by observ ing the pledge," Schneider added that "Your hunting license does not authorize trespass on private property," and urged all hunters to ask the landowners permission first.
