Tresh's Three-Run Homer
Beats San Francisco, 5 to 3
New York - IUP1I - Rookie
Tom Tresh crashed a three
run home run in the eighth
inning today to give the New
York Yankees a 5-3 victory
over the San Francisco Giants
and a three-game to two lead
in the World Series.
Tresh's dramatic wallop
into the lower right field
stands capped a sudden ex
plosion that wrecked the
Giants just when it seemed
that San Francisco pitcher
Jack Sanford was nearing a
brilliant hurling effort.
Sanford Whiffed 10
Sanford, who shut out the
Yankees in the second game
of the series last Friday,
struck out 10 Yankees today
and, until theieighth, the only
runs he had given up were
scored on a wild pitch in the
fourth inning and a passed
ball in the sixth.
In fact, Sanford had just
si ruck out three straight bat
ters, two of them in the sev
enth inning and one to start
the eighth, when the roof fell
in on him.
A crowd of 63,165 saw Tony
Kubek open the winning rally
by grounding a single into
right field. Bobby Richardson
followed with a single to left
that moved Kubek to second
and brought Tresh to the
plate.
Giants Stunned
Tresh, a brilliant switch
hitting rookie whose father
also played in the major
leagues, then stunned the
Giants with his three - run
homer that sent Sanford into
the showers and down to de
feat. Tlie victory went to Ralph.
Terry, who pitched all the
way for the Yankees and al
lowed eight hits. It was the
first series victory of Terry's
career after four defeats.
Terry struck out seven Giants
Jose Pagan scored the fir-l
two Giant runs. He singled in
the third, took second on a
sacrifice by Sanford, and
came home on a double by
Chuck Hiller. And then he
rapped Terry for a home run
in the fifth inning.
The Giants got another run

Orchardist Calls
For Community to

Pear Shippers May
Sell To Government
Pacific Coast pear shippers
will have an opportunity to
sell surplus Bartlett pears to
the federal school lunch pro
gram, according to Robert
Eaton, in charge of the Pacific
Northwest field office of the
fruit and vegetable division of
the U. S. Department of Agri
culture. The government's offer to
buy on a bid basis will cover
U. S. No. 1 minimum grade
with 165's set as the minimum
size. All pear shippers of Ore
gon, Washington and Califor
nia should receive the federal
bid offers tomorrow, Eaton
said.
The bids will be sent to
Washington, D. C, and ship
pers will be notified whether
or not their bids were accept
ed by the end of next week,
Eaton added.
Decision to admit the pears
to the school lunch program
was made by USDA officials
in Washington, D. C. today,
Eaton said. The decision fol
lowed a meeting this week
with Under Secretary of Ag
riculture Charles Murphy, a
representative of Medford
pear shippers, R. A. Patter
son, general manager of the
Oregon-Washington - Califor
nia Pear bureau, and other
pear industry spokesmen. The
meeting was arranged through

San Francisco Friday.
Pears
picking, and unless the rest
of the pears are harvested im
mediately after picking can
resume, many of them may
be lost.
"Let's have everyone - high
school boys, farmers, anyone
who can climb a ladder-rally
round to get this crop in,"
Hoover declared. "The pear
boys are a mainstay to our
economy, and we owe it to
them to save the crop."
Can Furnish Trucks
He added, "There are lots
of us who can furnish trucks
or Cats and other equipment
to transport pickers and the
crop. I'm sure everyone would
want to help if they just knew
how."
Local fruit growers suggest
ed that people volunteering to
pick pears when orchards dry
out should contact Glen Hasty
at the farm labor office near
the Jackson' county fair
grounds. Transportation would be
provided to the orchards be
tween 6 a.m. and 8 a.m.,
Hasty said.
Friday Hasty had issued an
an appeal for family groups
and boys 16 years and older
to pick pears because of the
critical labor shortage. Some
growers noted that not every
one is physically able to pick
pears.
Wait to Dry Out
"It will probably be two or
three days before the or
chards dry out on even the
lighter soils. It will be longer
for orchards on the sticky
soil," an orchardist comment
ed. "We could be in real des
per ate circumstances," a
grower noted. "There are the
equivalent of approximately
a half million boxes of pears
yet to be picked. These are
Bosc, Cornice, Nellis and P.
Barry varieties."
Two school district super
intendents said a "pretty lull
calendar" would make it dif
ficult to close schools to allow
students to pick during the
week. However, if the situa
tion becomes serious they said
they would consider It.

In a speech broadcast by

About 600 People
Attend Candidates
Fair at Auditorium
About BOO people braved
the rain last night to attend
the Candidates Fair at Med
ford High school where they
heard brief speeches from 24
political office seekers, in
cluding a debate between Re
publican Carl Fisher and Dem
ocrat Robert Duncan, candi
dates for Congress from the
fourth district.
The debate topic, "What
Should Be the Role of the
Federal Government?" allow
ed the candidates sufficient
latitude to make some differ
ences in their political phi
losophies clear to the audi
ence, but the 15 minutes al
lotted to each man was too
brief to permit a free swing
ing exchange of ideas and
arguments between them.
Statement Interrupted
Fisher's opening 10-minute
statement was interrupted by
applause three times. His cri
tical remarks about foreign
aid, federal aid to education
and the King-Anderson bill
drew the biggest response
from the audience.
Duncan was applauded dur
ing his rebuttal period when
he argued in favor of a fed
eral program of medical care
for the aged under Social
Security.
The Republican party in
Jackson county was awarded
a prize for having the most
members present at the fair
last night, which at the sug
gestion of Rep. Edwin R.
Durno was dedicated to the
memory of Clem Miller, con-
gressman from caiuornia s
first district who was killed
in an airplane crash Sunday.

Shipley was convicted in
Lincoln county of the slaying
of Linda Jean Stevens, 16,

Unreasonable Delay
Shipley's attorneys contend
ed there was an unreasonable
delay in taking him before a
magistrate after he was ar
rested. They said his admis
sions and confession during
the 25 hour lag should have
been excluded from evidence.
But Justice McAllister wrote
that S h i p 1 e y's statements
were admissible, and their
admission at the trial did not
violate due process.
McAllister said the federal
rule excluding such state

court should adopt the rule
followed by the federal courts.

Meredith Jeered on
Mississippi Campus
Oxford, Miss. - (UPI) White
students harassed James Mere
dith at just about every step
the Negro took Tuesday on the
University of Mississippi cam
pus. A stocky youth even pushed
past a U.S. marshal walking
with Meredith and shook his
finger in Meredith's face.
"Nigger, you better watch
out," he said.
the House rules committee,
Representative Howard Smith
(D-Va.), wants all Senate-added
projects stricken. But the
Senate Majority leader, Mike
Mansfield of Montana, wants
the Knowles dam retained in
the bill.
Because Smith could block
final House action if the final
compromise version is unac
ceptable to him, there Is
speculation that the whole bill
could be scuttled for this year
as Congressional leaders press
for adjournment this week. -
If the bill dies, the Rogue
Basin dams would not be
eligible for federal funds for
another year at least. The
pending bill only authorizes
the projects. Appropriations
to start construction would re
quire future Congressional action.
