4 B MONDAY, APRIL IS. 1113 MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE. MEDFOHD. OREGON BIG D PUTS ON ONE MAN SHOW Esfir By mD DOWN VFI Sports WrUtr You've only to look at Don Demeter's .474 batting aver age to understand why Man ager Gene Mauch of the Philadelphia Phillies calls him "Big D." Big D is a sort of Jack of all trades with the Phillies but fortunately no matter where he plays he's become a master of the bat. And he's the most important reason why the Phillies were the hottest team in the National league over the second half of the 1882 season and today are in a three-way tie for first place with the San Francisco Giants and Pittsburgh Pirates. Demcter owes his develop ment as a hitter directly to Mauch. Don used to be a free swinger who tried to pull every pitch. On Mauch's ad vice, he started to "hit with the pitch" last year and he wound up the season with a .307 average, 28 homers and 107 runs batted ip. Stages One-Man Show Demeter staged virtually a one-man show in St. Louis Sunday when he collected six hits in nine-at-bats and drove in three runs as the Phillies downed the Cardinals, 4-3 in 10 innings, and 5-4. Chief beneficiary of Demeter'j blast ing was relief ace Jack Bald schun, who received credit for both victories although he worked a total of only 2(4 innings. The Chicago Cubs snapped the San Francisco Giants' four - game winning streak, 3-1. the Pittsburgh Pirates shaded the Cincinnati Reds, 1-0, the Houston Colts defeat ed the Los Angeles Dodgers, 9-4, and the Milwaukee Braves topped the New York Met, 1-0, in 10 Innings in other NL games New York Yankees beat the i Cline.

PCL Players Swinging For Fences United Press International The Hawaii Islanders have established a new season's rec ord in the Pacific Coast league and they haven't even been to bat yet. The Islanders and the visit ing Salt Lake City Bees have watched restlessly while their first three scheduled games were washed out by tropical downpours. Hawaii had only one game postponed by rain during its first two seasons in the PCL. But the other eight teams in the wide-spread loop are swinging for the fences. The Oklahoma City 89crs hammered out five homers Sunday to defeat Seattle, 9-5, and take over the lead in the Southern Division with two victories and no defeats. Dallas-Ft. Worth and Port land split a doublchcader, with the Rangers taking the afternoon contest, 5-4, and the Beavers winning the night game, 9-5. Spokane, Denver Divide In another twinbill, Spo kane edged Denver, 1-0, In the opener and lost to the Bears, 4-1, in the nightcap. Tacoma defeated San Diego, but the nightcap was post poned because of wet grounds. The rained-out Hawaii-Salt Lake doubleheader was re scheduled for today. Other games on the schedule include Spokane at San Diego, Seattle at Oklahoma City, and Port land at Dallas, Portland jumped out to a four-run lead in both of its games at Dallas, but had to struggle to earn a split. The Rangers rallied for five runs to take the opener and tied the nightcap with Ray Jablon- skis' homer in the eighth. But the Beavers bounced back with five runs in the top of the ninth to ice the contest.

'I he Medford high mark is 12-9 set in 1956 by Lew Breazcale. Howeve, Coach Dean Ben son told the Medford Line backers on Friday that the vault record should po this year. On his Saturday effort, Hammons appears a good bet to break it. He tied with Gary Van Koten, Grants Pass, in the Haywards. Hammons had fewer misses. Of the Tornado track team in general Coach Ben.'on said, "I was real pleased with the kids. They did a real fine job up there. They improved on just about everything."
