YANKS ADD 1 1 PAN AM MEDALS By LEO H. PETERSEN UPI SporU Editor Sao Paulo, Brazil-ITO-TJnit-ed States athletes, who are making a shambles of the Pan - American Games with an avalanche of gold medals, had a chance to add to the pile today in track and field, bas ketball and boxing. The Yanks picked up 11 gold medals Thursday In sweeping tne modern pen tathlon. The men's and women's gymnastics and the team title in epee fencing. That boosted their gold medal collection to 87 and with an ticipated victories in today's events, t h e United States should be within striking dis tance of the record 120 gold medals won at the last Pan American Games four years ago in Chicago. There were six track and field finals on today's pro gram, in which the United States was expected to win at least tour gold medals. Add to that tlie boxing finals in each weight division plus title games in both men's and women's basketball -both against Brazil - and it clear ly shapes up as a runaway for Yank stars. Expects Triple Victory Thus far Americans have won eight of the 11 track and field events - three less than originally anticipated. Today, Yank men stars compete in the high hurdles, broad jump and the hammer throw. Coach Lou Montgomery expects vic tory in all three events. Ralph Boston oi Laurel, Miss., t h e 1960 Olympic champ, and Darrell Horn of San Antonio, Tex., carry the U.S. colors in the broad jump, Willie May of Chicago, the silver medalist in the 1960 Olympics, and Blaine Lind gren of Salt Lake City, Utah, compete in the 110 meter high hurdles, and Al Hall of Green field, Mass., the defending games champion, and James Pryde of San Gabriel, Calif., are in the. hammer throw. The fourth men's final is the 20,000 meter walk in which Ron Zinn of Orland Park, 111.," and Ron Laird of Chicago are the American en tries. Two Women's Events The two women's events are the high jump, in which Eleanor Montgomery of Cleve land and Estelle Baskcrville of Columbus, Ohio, are enter ed, and the discus, with Cyn thia Wyatt, the reigning U.S. indoor champion from Hono lulu, and Sharon Shepherd of North Bond, Ore., the Ameri can entries. The U.S. expects to win both events. In basketball, the United States is favored in both the men's and women's final, but it won't be easy. The Bra zilians clearly have shown they are capable of pulling off upsets and American officials are not taking them lightly. . Boxing is a different story. Two of three Americans shoot ing for final berths were elimi nated on Tuesday and two others Thursday night, and the feeling is that the Yanks will be fortunate to win the two fights today in which they placed finalists. ' Also on tap today are finals in saber team fencing, Svater polo and volleyball. The U.S. plays Canada in the water ' polo final and meets Brazil in the volleyball final. Both of these matches are rated toss ups. Robert Beck of San Diego, Calif., led a 1-2-3 sweep in the pentathlon Thursday, while Doris Fuchs of Rochester, N.Y., Avis Ticbcr of Aii.Un, Tex., and Dale McClements of Seattle, Wash., won all four gold medals at slake in the women's gymnastics. Canada Prevents U.S. Sweep Then, Donald Tonry of Brooklyn, N.Y., Abraham Grossfield of New London, Conn., Garland O'Quinn of Carbondale, 111., and Jamile Ashmore of New Haven, Conn., walked off with four of the six gold medals awarded in the men's gymnastics. Canada's brilliant Frederick Weiler prevented a United States sweep when he won the other two gold medals, plus three silver and one bronze in one of the finest in dividual performances in the entire games. Miss Fuchs, though, won two of the women's gymnas tics events to become the first athlete in the games to win three gold medals. Doris won the women's all-around com petition on Wednesday. Beck, a 26-year-old Harvard graduate students, led Ameri ca to the team championship in addition to winning the in dividual gold medal by over taking Lt. Richard Stoll of Ft. Sam Houston, Tex., when he placed second in the 4.000 meter cross country run, final SECTIONS . TAGESltolO MEDFORDtTRIBUNK SIPdDIKTO MEDFORD.

The two gold medals Weil er picked up in the men's gymnastics moved Canada into second place ahead of Brazil and Argentina in the team standings with 8 golds, 22 silver and 24 bronze medals. is t- -a "JWMF"' - tjr SF Seals Put Cards On Table San Francisco - IUPD - Just when the Seattle Totems seemed to have the Western Hockey league playoff title wrapped up, the San Francis co Seals called a red-necked meeting that didn't end until they were contenders once more for the crown. "After Seattle beat us, 3-1, on Wednesday nobody left this dressing room for two hours," Coach Bud Poile of the Seals said while discussing last night's 8-0 smashing of the Totems. "We put our cards on the table and decided that we should continue to be the high est scoring team in the league." Battering Held to. a pair of goals by Seattle net-minder Al Millar the last two games, the Seals gave him a terrific bat tering last night while cutting Seattle's advantage to 3-2 in the best-of-seven games series. The clubs resume what has turned into a grudge battle on Sunday at the Cow Palace, A total of 23 penalties went into the books last night as Len Haley stunned Millar with the hat trick to go with a pair of goals apiece off the sticks of Mo Mantha and Lar ry McNabb. Two of Haley's markers came 20 seconds apart as the Totems . defenses collapsed during the last period. Len's first goal had been registered in the middle stanza as the Seals beat Millar three times in less than four and one-half minutes. MAKE TRADE '-.The Min nesota Twins yesterday traded Jack Kralick, (shown, bottom photo) a no-hit pitcher who slumped to 1-4 this season, for Jim Perry (lop photo) of the Cleveland Indians. Kralick,' according to this release from St. Paul, has proved to be an erratic lefthander for the Twins. The acquisition of Fer ry, a righthander, seemed to end manager Sam Mele's search for another right-har.d-ed thrower to balance off a pitching staff heavily loaded with left-handers. (UPI photo) Nicklaus Holds Lead Las Vegas, Nev. -(UPD- The 27-man race for the $13,000 first place jackpot in golf's Tournament of Champions shaped up today as a two-man battle between Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer after only one round of play. Nicklaus, the 23-year-old National Open and Masters champion, fashioned a great eight-under-par 64 Thursday to take a two-stroke lead over Palmer. Only Bill Collins of Gros singer, N. Y., appeared in a position to give the two, golf ing greats a run for the money. Collins had a fine 67; one shot behind Palmer. The rest of the field was at least six shots behind Nick laus with little chance of shooting for -anything except second or third place in this $60,000 tournament. , "That 64 equalled the finest round I've ever shot as a pro, said Nicklaus. "That seems to be about as good as I can do." ME? HQS I'm a Gentleman of the old school with my own brand of theories to expound- Watch for them every Tueiday in this newspaper!
