2 B Desperate Calm Before Kentucky Derby; Candy Spots 6-5 Favorite Louisville, Ky. TO "We hove entered a period of des perate calm. That was the way trainer Mesh Tenney, who conditions lavored Candy Spots for part ner Rex Ellsworth, today de scribed the last remaining hours before a field of nine goes to the post Saturday in Yreka Tips Ashland High 4-3 Ashland - Yreka, Calif., ripped Ashland high 4 to a at Yreka on Thursday in a non-league baseball game. The Miners got three of their runs in the second in ning on 4wo errors, singles by Philipe and Campbell and a balk. The other was in me third frame on a walk, a sac rifice by Bennett and a sin. file by Morton. Ashland runs came one at a time. In the first frame 'lim Thompson walked and ad vanced on a passed ball and error. He scored when Mick Pierce hit Into a double play. In the third panel Bill Til ford doubled and Thompson was safe on a futile fielder's choice effort to put Tilford out. Tilford, however, was doubled when Bob DeBoer popped on a sacrifice bunt try. Two wild pitches allowed Thompson to tally. John Rhodes doubled in the fourth panel, stole third base and scored on an error. Yreka pitchers Wolf and Boot held Ashland to two hits while fanning six and working five. Tilford tossed five - hit ball for Ashland, walking four and whiffing the came number.

MAY 3. 1963 the 83th running of the Ken. lucky Derby. The serious work was over although the worry remained, Only a year ago, on the eve of the first of the triple crown classics. Sir Caylord, the fa. vorite, broke down and was confined to his stall when Decidedly romped to glory in the record time of 2:00 25 for the mile and one-quarter, Never Bend Second Choica The horses against which Candy Spots risks a perfect record of six wins in six races re: Cain Hoy Stable's Never Bend, Grecntree Stable's No Robbery. Miss Patrice Jacobs' Bonjour, Darby Dan Farm's Chatcaugay, Walnut Hill Farm's Gray Pet, Bernard ,i, nldder's Roval Tower, and Joseph J. Chcrock's Investor. Never Bend, winner of more than $500,000, was second choice at 5-2 against the B-5 quoted on Candy Spots. No Robbery, another colt with an unbeaten record, was third choice at 3-1. These are the "big three" of the 1003 edition of .Amer ica's greatest horse race which boasts two undefeated start ers for the Iirsi lime since Aristides won the inaugural running in 1875. Sevan Unbeaten Horses Down through the years seven unbeaten horses have started In the Derby. Only two of them emerged unscath ed with Regret, the only filly ever to win, scoring in 1015 and Morvich bouncing home in 1922. But su-'h horses as Native Dancer, Bimelcch, Coaltown, Thunderer and Col onel Hogan tasted defeat for the first time in the Rose Run. There was little left for the trainers to do until it is time on Saturday to lift their jockeys Into the saddle to the strains of "My Old Kentucky Home." Tenney planned to gallop Candy Spots today to keep the coll on edge. No Robbery, Chateaugay and Royal Tower also were scheduled for "blowout" and the others probably will get them on Saturday morning.

The Grants Pass jay vees at Rogue River varsity meet slated yesterday was shifted to today because of the effect of the rain on the RR oval. Rogue River varsity also will contend against Ashland and Grants Pass in a Saturday meet at Grants Pass, Coach Frank Morris said. St. Mary's also is expected to have some participants in the meet. Workouts Hampered At Medford high, steriliza tion of the football field soil prior to reseeding, has ham pered track workouts. Water used to soak in the sterilizing liquid overflowed on to the track' and on to the broad Jump and pole vault runways. The Tornadoes were limited to a 220-yard section of the track one afternoon and to the other 220 the next. Then yes terday the rain fell. Coach Dean Benson s charges have been able to get a few things done rut were not able to pole vault or broad Jump for three days. There has been some pretty hard work on the half track but this was to have been the last week ot overall intensive drill prior to the district and not all has been accomplished that was desired. Now there will be another week of hard work before the tapering off for district begins. Benson said that Tim Mur ray, discur- and Javelin throw er, is not slated to compete at Klamath Falls. He is under doctor's care for a pulled back muscle. Murray, whose back was ailing last week, threw the discus but not the Javelin last Saturday against Rose- burg.

Play on Saturday is set for 1 a.m. and 2 p.m. Southern Oregon was run ner up to Oregon State and to University of Oregon in previous round robins. Coach Alex Petersen has pointed to much improvement by his young squad. By way of illustration he mentioned the one-sided loss to Chico early in the season and the SOC victory over the Cali fornia team a month later. Said Petersen, "The men have to work hard for every win because of their lack ot experience, but I am proud of the improvement they have made and we are looking for ward to n good week end." Stan Musial Gives Answer With 3 Run Double for SL By FRED DOWN UPI Sports Writer Old man Musial ain't what he used to be but lie's not yet ready to throw aside his bat In favor of a rocking chair in the sun. Stan the Man, now 42, got off to a slow start with the St Louis Cardinals this season after no less an authority than Branch Rickey had suggested he might be excess baggage for the team to carry. Man ager Johnny Keane,' however, closed his ears to the advice and waited for Musial to sup ply his own answer. That the Man did Thursday night with a three-run, seventh-inning double that lifted the Cardinals to a 4-3 victory over the Chicago Cubs and increased their National league lead to two games. The double enabled Musial to tie Babe Ruth's major league record of 1,396 extra base hits and also raised his career RBI total to 1,901. "He was a .250-hitter (10 hits in 40 tries this season) when he went to the plate," remarked Keane in the dress ing room. "I figured he was just the .250-hitter we needed in that spot. Wins Fifth Straight Musial's big hit canceled out a three-run ninth inning homer by Ron Santo and gave Ray Washburn his fifth straight win. A single by Curt Flood and walks to George Altaian and Ken Boyer filled the bases and set the stage for Musial's winning hit off exteammate Larry Jackson. The San Francisco Giants beat the Pittsburgh Pirates, 2-1, the Milwaukee Braves romped at the expense of the Cincinnati Reds, 8-0, the Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Philadelphia Phillies, 3-2, and the New York Mets routed the Houston Colts, 10-3, in other National league games. Juan Marichal, displaying his best form of the season, pitched a five - hitter and struck out seven. Felipe Alou provided him with the runs It will be Mad Dog Vachon against Rocky Columbo for the Pacific Coast junior heavyweight wrestling cham- j pionship at Medford armory j next Thursday night. 1 Columbo, who won the title i from Wild Bill Savage here in i March, had asked Promoter Elton Owen to find the tough est possible opponent so that he prove to the people of southern Oregon that he is a "real champion". Owen nar rowed the search down to Vachon and Fritz Von Goer ing but settled on the big French Algerian when Vachon took two straight falls from Von Gooring in a Washington ring earlier this week. Owen's earlier promise that this will be one of the best cards he has ever presented here is further borne out with the signing of Soldat Gorky, the Siberian Wolfman, to face Gil "Hilo" Ane, 270-pound j Hawaiian, In the semi-wind-1 up. Gorky will be remembered j for a number of spectacular matches at the old Bartlctt st. armory here a few years ago, in many of which he 1 paired with his brother, Ivan. ! Ane played football at the 1 University of Southern Cali-I fornia and has cut a wide swath in professional mat cir cles since discarding his foot ball gear for wrestling togs. One other match, yet to be signed, will complete the card. Ringside reserved scat tickets are available at Lamport's 1 Sporting Goods store in Med lord. . !
