The Giants are the defend ing National league champions but they've looked the part of stumbling, bumbling eighth- placers. They ve lost three games in a row, 1 of their last 11, 12 of their last 14, and Thursday dropped a 4-1 decision to the Chicago Cubs at Phoenix, Ariz. With the opening of the Camilla Has Good Day; Hits Homer Bradentown, Fla. - (OPD -Doug Camilll may not be a slugger equal to his dad, but he has his days. Thursday was one of them. The young Los Angeles Dodger catcher belted a hom er to lead off the 14th inning that sent the West Coast ag gregation to a 4-2 victory over the host New York Mets. An other run scored in the frame thanks to a hit batsman, steal and single by Bill Skowron. With John Roseboro spend ing much of his time on the bench because of a skin in fection, Camilll has been play ing quite a bit. He figures to rate the No. 2 backstop, despite a presentable catch ing performance by Mike Brumley this spring. Camilli's father, Dolph, was an all-time great with the Dodgers who won the most valuable player award in 1941. The Dodgers today engaged Kansas City in an attempt to draw even in the won-loss column. Reserve infielder Don Zim- mer, an all-time Dodger but only in the way of misfor tune, was hit in the forehead by a ground ball by former teammate Charley Neal. Zim- mer's injury was not serious, or so it appeared. He nar rowly escaped incapacitating Injury in previous injuries, Including beanlngs. The Dodgers still have a couple of lineup question marks as they near the end of the Florida training. The biggest is whether Tommy Davis will play third, If he fails to show improve ments - he has had his troubles there thus far -Tommy will return to left field. That might mean Jim Gilliam, Daryl Spencer or rookie Ken McMullen as the third baseman for the open ing of the season. Manager Walt Alston also has Indicated he may go with Ron Fairly rather than Frank Howard in right field, since the big man has been slow finding the groove. Some ob servers figure this might be intended to light a fire under Howard, who drove in 119 runs last year. SHARE THE SAVINGS 50 SHOES v, National league pennant race only 10 days away, Dark is beginning to become impa tient. Lou Brock hit a key double and triple to pace the Cubs' 1-hit attack Thursday, Ernie Bowman had two singles and a double for the Giants and Tom Haller hit a homer. It the Giants are looking for company during their spring frustration, they can easily find it in the persons of the New York Yankees. Reds Edge Yanks . The world champs had to remain on the field away from their Madison avenue activities for a full 11 innings Thursday before drop ping a s-z decision to the Cincinnati Reds. Ken Walters doubled home Tommy Harper in the 11th to give the Reds their margin of victory. Carroll Hardy had a triple and two singles to lead a 19 hit attack that, brought the Houston Colts a 12-4 decision over the Boston Red Sox. Bonus baby Rusty Staub hit a three-run homer and Ellis Burton also homered for the Colts. The Los Angeles Angels raised their spring record to 14-5 with a 4-3 victory over the Cleveland Indians-their third straight ninth - inning triumph. Rookie Charlie Dees' pinch-hit single with the bases filled in the ninth drove in the decisive run. Harvey Haddix allowed only one hit for six innings a double by rookie Bob Sa verine as the Pittsburgh Pirates defeated the Baltimore Orioles, 6-0. The Pirates sot eight hits and four walks good for five runs in the first five innings against Chuck Estrada. Camilli Breaks Tie The Los Angeles Dodgers beat the New York Mets, 4-2, in 14 innings, with Doug Ca milli's solo homer breaking the 2-2 tie in the top of the anal frame. Larry Sherry. making his best showing of uie spring, pitched six shut out innings for the Dodgers. iaui Katliff, 18-year-old rookie bonus catcher, hit a homer and two singles to lead the Minnesota Twins to a 3-2 win over the Kansas City Athletics as Lee Stange and uerry Arrigo held the A's to four hits.

MEDFORDtWrRIBUlNK SIPCDIffiTS MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, MARCH 29, 1963 Murtaugh Pirates on By LEO H. PETERSEN UPI Sports Editor Fort Myers, Fla.-UPD - The Pittsburgh Pirates have made some wholesale changes for the first time since they won the pennant in 1960 and Man ager Danny Murtaugh is con fident the team is on the up grade. And, he points out, it docs not have to go up very much to win in 1963 for while the club finished fourth last sea son it was only eight games back. Not that his is claim ing the pennant. "You don't do that in a league as tough as this one," he explains. "And while 1 know our team is improved I have no way of knowing how much. If any, the other clubs in the league have im proved." He figures the Pirates, even with Vern Law still a ques tion mark, will have better pitching this year with the addition of Don Cardwell and Don Schwall, better catching with Jim Pagllaroni to team with Smoky Burgess, more speed and at least as much power as last year. "But let s face it, he ados, we are not a power team. Our runs are going to come hard, with singles and doub les, for we lack what they call the consistent long bomb. However, good pitching and good defense can make up for that." . Trades Away Infield The Pirates lost three- fourths of their 1960 cham pionship infield when they traded away first baseman Dick Stuart to the Red Sox to get Schwall and Pagliaroni; shortstop Dick Groat to the Cardinals for Cardwell and infielder Julio Gotay for third baseman Don Hoak . to the Phillies for outfielder Ted Savage, With all that new blood. though, the Pirates' chances may well hinge on how rookie Bob Bailey does at third base. They dealt away Hoak, one of the better all-around third basemen in the. league, only because they were sure the 20-old Bailey could fill the bill. Bailey hit .299 with Co lumbus with 28 home runs and 108 runs batted in. In 14 games with the Pirates at the tall end of the season, he batted only .167. The Pirates are not worried about his hitting although, probably because of a sore shoulder, he has not hit well in spring exhibition games. But he has more than pleased Murtaugh with his work in the field. May Change Plans Murtaugh plans on an in field of Don Clendenon at first, BUI Mazeroskl at second, Dick Schofleld at short and Bailey at third. Schoficld, who has been knocking around the majors as a Util ity man since 1963, is getting his first shot as a regular. He Is only 28. Mazeroskl, of course, is a fixture at second. The veteran Johnny Logan and Gotay will be in the in field reserve. Roberto Clements In right, Bill Virdon in center and Bob Skinner In left shape up as the regular outfield. Sav age and rookie Willie Stargcll figure as the top sparess. Cardwell, (7-16) with the Cubs last season and who then was traded to the Cardinals and sent on to the Pirates; Schwall, (9-1 S) with the Red Sox; Bob Friend (18-14) and Al McBean (15-10) appear to be the top four starters. Murtaugh thinks he might have three more starters in Earl Francis (9-8), Joe Oibbon (3-4) and Bob Veale (2-2). The bullpen will be headed by little Elroy Face (8-7). That leaves Harvey Haddix fpzzi nn u i n Building the Rogue Valley -, . ; . with ... rnone I 773 7555 ) ) V 6641217 J I PAGES I to 12 Confident Upgrade (9-6), Tom Sturdivant (9-5) and two rookies, Bob Priddy. a 10-game winner at Columbus and Tom Butters, who won six at Asheville, battling it out for the other pitching berths. Lew still is a question mark. Law won 20 in 1960. then came up with a sore arm. He won only three games in 1961, but came back to win 10 last season. But his arm went bad again and as of now Murtaugh is not count ing on him. He admits, how ever, that if Law should come back, "it certainly doesn't look like I'll Have any pitch ing worries." Although he can not hit with Burgess, Pagliaroni, a better defensive many, may win the No. 1 catching berth. Besides Smoky, who swings powerful bat, is 36 and would like more rest than last season when he caught in 103 games. Rookie Elmo Plaskett, .350 at Asheville In 1962, probably will be the third string receiver. HOCKEY NATIONAL LEAGUE Playoff Standings (Best of Seven Semifinals) W. Toronto ' . , 2 , 0 Montreal . ...

Savage, wrestling with a boil on the back of his neck, thought he had won the de ciding fall and was waving to a jeering crowd when Co lumbo lashed out with a drop kick and topped it with a body press for the victory. The champion had Colum bo in a bad way and thought he had pinned him when the referee tapped him on the buck. However, it was only a demand to break the hold because Savage's legs were extended beyond the ring ropes. It was then that Co lumbo came up with the drop kick and the championship.

Cincinnati's imper t in e n t Royals fired the first shot in the newest revolt Thursday night when they licked the four-time champions on Bos ton's home court. The Eastern Division best- of-seven final series continues at Cincinnati tonight while the St. Louis Hawks rest for the start of their Western showdown with the Lakers which starts in Los Angeles Sunday. . Coach Charley Wolf's Roy als even had the nerve to bor row Boston's prize strategy in scoring a 135-132 upset vic tory Thursday night. The Celtics, while winning seven straight Eastern titles and five of the last six play off crowns, have been famed for their powerful "bench," their reserves who leap into pound already reeling oppo nents. - But Cincinnati got a sur prise one-game jump in the series opener by using its own three-man bench force. The reserve trio, Tom Haw kins, Adrian Smith and Hub Reed, netted a total of 22 points, gave regulars needed rest, and managed to keep starters out of serious foul trouble. a 1 Savage flip and Columbo evened the score with a vicious right hand smash to the chops after Savage had thrown him into the ropes. Mediord Man Loses George Flanagan, Medford, lost by a whisker when he challenged Jack Dalton to a fast draw gun match. Judges Mac McMurray, Gene Gar ner and Jack Burns were unanimous in their opinion although many thought it was at least a draw. Flanagan and Dalton then entertained brief ly with a series of flashy gun tricks. Dalton, with his long hair making a good hand grip, lost to Cowboy Bob Boyer in a wild match which saw both men outside of the ring on numerous occasions. The final fall went to Boyer on a foul when Jim Dalton, Jack's younger brother, dashed from the dressing room with a leather glove which the older Dalton slipped onto his hand and began to make a punch ing bag out of Boyer, The younger Dalton took the lone fall from Haru Sa saki, substituting for the in jured Ricky Hunter. The program was witnessed by one of the best crowds of the season.
