    RED SOX TAKE OVER 1ST IN AL
. Unitid Prtii International
, Some kids hope to grow up
nd become president, but one
former shoeshine boy would
much rather be named the
American league's manager of
the yeai.
And at the rate he's going,
freshman manager Johnny
Pesky of the first-place Bos
ton Red Sox might make it.
Pesky delights in telling
about his teen-age days In the
early '30s when he worked as
a clubhouse boy for the Port
land club of the Pacific Coast
league.
"I used to polish the shoes
and sharpen the spikes for the
guys like Joe DIMaggio, Ted
Williams, Mike Higgins and
Frank Crosetti," the dark
eyed, 43-year-old Rod Sox
skipper laughs.
, That's all behind him now
and so is the rest of the Amer
ican league.
Peiky's red-hot Sox won
their fifth straight game and
took over the league lead
Thursday by blanking the Los
Angeles Angels 3-0 on Earl
Wilson's two-hitter.

the 87tn running of the sjlHu,-

Eight 3-year-olds are sched

the Triple Crown classics.
Candy Spots ones again is the
favorite, just as he was in
the Kentucky Derby two
weeks ago.
But Candy Spots failed at
Churchill Downs, suffering
the only defeat of his career
when he finished third behind
Darby Dan Farm's Chateau
gay and Cain Hoy Stable's
Never Bend.
"He looks a little harder
than he did for the Derby,"
said Mesh Tenney, who trains
Candy Spots for Rex C. Ells

the son of Nlgromante was
sharper now than he was at

Wilson even contributed
379-foot triple and a single in
Boston's 10-hit attack against
Dan Osinski who usually re
lieves for the Angels but made
his first major league start.
The Red Sox got to Osinski
for all their runs in the first
inning. - -
The Cleveland Indians
knocked the Chicago White
Sox out of first place with a
5-4 victory and the Baltimore
Orioles battered the Washing.
ton Senators 9-1 in the only
other AL games scheduled,
Alv's Beats Brosuan
Max Alvls' homer off Jim
Brosnan in the ninth inning
gave the Indians their vic
tory over the White Sox. John
Buzhardt started for Chicago
and had a 2-1 lead until Joe
Adcock's three-run double put
the Tribe ahead 4-2, in the
eighth. Dave Nicholson's two-
run double in the top of the
ninth tied the score and set
the stage for Alvls' fourth
homer. Pedro Ramos, Cleve
land's third pitcher, was cred.

four runs for the Orioles and

desired. But the colt has

Conway promies Chateaugay
"will run as good or better
than he did in Louisville."
Wooi' Stephens, who trains
Never Bend, second in the
Derby, said he was completely
satisfied with the way that
colt has come up to the race
after a workout Thursday. He
said, "I thought It was as
smooth and easy a workout
as I've ever seen Never Bend
put In."
The same Jockeys who rode
in the Derby again handle the
big three," with Willie Shoe
maker on Candy Spots, Manny
Ycaza on Never Bend and
Braulio -eza on Chateaugay.
The Preakness is a cross
roads for Chateaugay, who
can move a littl closer to a
clean sweep of the Triple
Crown classics by adding the
Prepkness to his Derby tri
umph. The Belmont Stakes on
June 8 completes the golden
series.
Eight Win Triple
Throughout racing history
only eight horses have won
all three races - Sir Barton,
Gallant Fox, Omaha, War Ad
miral, Whirlaway, Count
Flf ot, Assault and Citation.
Three other horses had the
chance Chateaugay seeks in
Saturday' mile and three-
sixteenth Preakness. But Car
ry Back, Tim Tarn and Pen-
live blew the opportunity by
falling in the Belmont Stakes
after winning the first two.
Candy Spots Is favored at
8-5 with Chateaugay and
Never Bend each listed at
5-2. But there is growing sup-
r -t for N -er Bend because
the Preakness is one-r' -teenth
of a mile shorter than the
Derby and Never Bend still
was in front at Churchill
Downs with a sixteenth ot a
mile to go.
The other starters Include
Rural Retreat, County Squire,
Lemon Twist and On My
Honor.

LA Dodgers Move
Into Second Spot
In National Loop
United Press International
What ever happened to all
that dissension among the Los
Angeles Dodgers?
Manager Walt Alston says
everytime he picks up
newspaper he reads about dis
sension on his ball club.
He probably isn't doing
much rending lately or he
would have notived a conspic
uous absence of such stories.
Eight victories in 11 games
will do it all the time and
that's been the Dodgers' pace
since May 5 when they began
climbing from seventh place.
They're second now and have
apparent designs of moving
even higher.
Southpaw Johnny Podres
scored his first victory in
more than three weeks Thurs
day night when he went the
distance for the first time
since April 24 in beating the
Pittsburgh Pirates 1-0. .
Podres scattered seven hits,
struck out five and walked
only one as he took only an
hour and 50 minutes to record
his second victory of the sea
son. "
Loser Don Schwall also
gave up seven hits, including
two in the ninth inning that
did him in.
Gilliam Scores Winner
Jim Gilliam opened the
ninth with a single, moved
up on a sacrifice and went to
third on an infield out. Wally
Moon was' purposely passed
and John Roseboro followed
with a single to center that
scored the only run of the
game. . ,
The league leading San
Francisco Giants kept pace by
edging the New York Mets
6-5, the Chicago Cubs clipped

Ashland high scored three
runs on four hits in the open
ing inning to get the jump
here yesterday. But, the Med
ford Black Tornado thundered
back with Its only heavy ar
tillery to get back in the ball
game then overwhelm the
Grizzlies 14 to 5 in Southern
Oregon conference baseball.
Mike Barnes' two run home
run and Stu Young's triple
in the second inning were big
blows which helped the Tor
nado overcome its deficit and
go ahead. The Bruins caught
up but the Twisters unleashed
more batting fury and went
in front for keeps.
Young and Dick Def f ley
each had three hits in five
plate appearances. Young
drove in three runs and Deft-
ley knocked in two along with
Dan Miles, Don Anderson and
Barnes. Anderson walloped a
two-run double and Miles col
lected his RBIs with a two
bagger, one of two safe swats
in four times up. Jack Forde
also doubled as eight Torna
does got in on the hitting act.
Two Game Lead
Clyde Nelson, Dean Sam-
uelson and John Rhodes each
hit safely twice for Ashland.
The decision gave Medford
an 11-1 conference record and
full two-game lead over
Klamath Falls' 9-3. Outcome
also eliminated Crater (10-6)
from the possibility of a title
tie. Ashland is 2-10 in the
standings. ;
Championship issue of the
conference (District 6 A-l) re
mains to be settle din one or
two series between the Klam
ath Falls Pelicans and the
Black Tornado. The teams,
which have not met so far
this season, collide at 1:30
p.m. on Saturday in a double
bill at Klamath Falls. If Med
ford wins both games, it will
successfully defend its title.
Medford and Klamath te-
tatively are slated for a twin
bill on Tuesday, May 21, at
Medford. Tornado Coach John
Kovenz said, however, he will
seek to have the games moved
to Monday, should the clubs
split or KF win both on Sat
urday. That would permit the
district representative more
rest before the quarterfinals
should a league playoff game
be required. State quarterfi
nals are set for May 24.
Sacrifice Aids
For its three runs in the
first inning yesterday, Ash
land got hits by Tim Thomp
son, Clyde Nelson, Dean Sam
uelson and John Rhodes and'
sacrifice by Rick Pierce. A
Tornado miscue also helped.
Consecutive safeties by
Rhodes, Jan Susee and Den
nis Kindcll, a fielder's choice
and a sacrifice fly by Bob
DeBoer produced the other
Ashland runs in the third in
ning. Medford picked up just a
single run in the first inning.
Miles hit a Texas leaguer to
left center field and stole sec
ond base. He scored on
Young's bounding blast be
tween first and second bases.
In the second inning Ron
Edmonds walked but was
forced for the second out by
Forde's grounder. Barnes
whammed a fly ball into left
field and it bounded to the
tennis courts for his round
tripper. Miles walked and
Def f ley singled, Young
brought them around with his
three-baser and Medford led
5 to 3.
Ashland's third inning runs
knotted the scrap. But Med
ford got three hits and three
runs in the bottom of the third
for an 8 to 5 spread. Edmonds
walked and swiped second
base. Forde doubled him home
and went to third on a balk.
Defflcy's single brought Forde
home. Deffley stole second
and romped home on Young's
hit. : ,
There were three runs on
one hit in the fourth inning.
Two walks, two errors and a
couple of stolen bases were
put with Miles' two-bagger.
In the fifth inning Gary
Miller walked and Mike Nea
thamer singled. They scored
on Anderson's triple and Ed
monds singled Anderson

THE ANQLER'S LOG
- Salmon fiihing hain't pick
ed up too much in ihe Galict
area at yet , but the Gold
Beach ii retch ii producing
fish like U isn't going to stop.
The periods of mud are mak
ing it difficult to estimate the
extent of the run. but the
fish are taking so much bet
ter than last year that fish
ermen are in a iorgiying mood
and still are trying.
Flih Lake Hai been improving
with the weather. Some limit of
rainbow and brook trout that are
not too large. Thoie that have
been caught weren't too particular
what they were taken on.
Howard Prairie Trolling and
bank fishing are Retting about at
good as the weather. Bigger fish
are becoming available ai the
spawning cycle ends and this week
end ought to tee the beginning of
some of the best fly fihing in the
country.
Hyatt Lake Things are improv
ing and so is the fishing. The road
in from Howard Prairie it fairly
rough in spots but that shouldn't
last much longer. Trollen using
woolly worms are fish-happy
at are the stillflthermen using
eggs and cheese.
THE OPTIMIST'S CORNER
Reports from the legisla
ture Indicates that those hUlf
instigated by the various
"Save Our Bambis" groups
still are in the committees
stuck with them. It's lucky
there are some cool heads be
tween the "experts" and the
experts.

by Paul Lea
J What was the most excit- Z
S ing single sports event of S
S all-time? ... A poll of Z
sportswriters once chose the
B Dempsey-Firpo fight of 1 923 j
. . . That was the fight when.
g Firpo went down nine times
g in two rounds and Dempsey
B was down twice including be-
B ing knocked out of the ring.
Did you know the great
race horse Man 0' War ran
tn 21 races in his career,
and finished first 20 times!
, . . The only time he failed
to win was in the Sanford
Stakes at Saratoga in 1919
... He finished second in
that race .'.yfAnd the only
horse to ever beat him was
named, appropriately, "Up
set"! It seems as though Little
League baseball has been
around for only a short time
. . . Actually, however, did
you know that the Little
League movement was
founded 24 years ago? . . .
It was in 1939 that Carl
Stotz of Williamsport, Pa.,
thought of, and started Lit
tle League baseball.
