XEDFORDStTRIBUNS Simmons Cards to By FRED DOWN' UPI Sports Writer It is almost exactly 13 years since the U. S. Army granted Pvt. Curt Simmons, a special furlough designed toive the (ire-balling young lefty a chance to pitch for the Philadelphia Phillies in the World Series. Simmons never did pitch in the 1950 Series as the Phillies lost four straight to the New York Yankees, but he may get his chance this year as the Cardinals keep biting into the Los Angeles Dodgers' once-imposing National league lead. The 34-year-old Simmons, en joying his best season since 1956, scored his second straight shutout and his 14th victory of the season Monday night when he pitched the Cardinals to a 6-0 win over the' Chicago Cubs. It was the Cardinals' 12th tri umph in the last 13 games and cut the idle Dodgers' first-place lead over them to three games. The Dodgers have 19 games left to play and the Cardinals have 17 including a vital three-game set between the teams beginning next Monday. With five shutouts and a 14-7 won-lost record, Simmons is a strong candidate for comeback of the year honors. His victory total is his highest since he won Hall's Runs Lead Twins Over Indians Hv FRED DOWN UPI Sports Writer .limmie Hall was la monlhs old when Boston Red Sox slug ger Ted Williams hit 31 hom ers in 1939 and set an Ameri can league record for rookies. Today Hall, a free-swinging lefty from .Mount Holly, N. C, has equalled the great bats man's mark and has 17 games left in which to set a new stand ard. And the way Hall and his Minnesota Twin teamates hit homers, there's little doubt that he'll make it. The six - foot, 175 -pound Hall hit his 30th and 31st hom ers of the season Monday night to pace the Twins to a 7-4 vic tory over the Cleveland Indians. Hall's homers also enabled the Twins to tic the major league record of three players on one team with 30 or more homers. With 203 homers for the sea son, the Twins also are likely to wind up second only to t h e 1961 New York Yankees, who set the major league mark of 240 homers in a season. The Indians took a 3-1 lead on early homers by Vic Davali llo and Bob Chance but Bob Allison homered for the Twins in the fourth and Hall hit his first of the game in the sixth. Hall's second homer tied t h e score in the eighth inning, and Ihe Twins went on to score four more runs to give Bill Pleis his sixth win of the season. Minnesota's three 30 - homer sluggers are Harmon Kille brew (37), Allison (33) and Hall. The major league record for homers hv a rookie is 38 and is held by Wally Bergcr and Frank Robinson. The Kansas City Athletics de layed the Yankees' march to ward a fourth straight pennant, 7-6. the Chicago White Sox beat the Baltimore Orioles, 9-4, the Detroit Tigers swept the Washington Senators. 1-0 a n d 10-7. and the Boston Red Sox 5-2, in other AL games.

(UPI) PCL Playoff Open Tonight At Spokane By United Press International Northern division kingpin Spo kane, which romned to the title by 17 games, tonight opens the ! best-of-seven Pacific Coast league playoff against southern division champion Oklahoma City, which slid into the title only after the league president was over-ruled. Oklahoma City edged San Diego by a half-game by pulling out a 6-4 decision against Dallas Ft. Worth in the final contest of the year. But the turning point of the campaign occurred after um pires called an Aug. 18 battle between San Diego and Port land after six innings because of rain. Portland was leading 2-1 and was given the win, but league president Dewey Soriano overruled the umpires and call ed it a postponed game. Oklahoma City then protested to the National association's ex ecutive committee which over ruled Soriano. The second game of the Aug. 18 double - header never was made up and San Diego wound up with one less win than Okla homa City. Spokane manager Danny Ozark has a well - rested Joe Moellcf (17-10) ready to go for tonight's opener against the 89ers. Oklahoma manager Gra dy Hatton was still undecided after his staff was worn to a frazzle in the hectic final days of the season The first three playoff games will be held in Spokane. The teams will travel Friday with all the rest of the games at Oklahoma City. Tommy Jacobs Nabs Utah Open SALE LAKE CITY (UPI) -His fellow pros aren't kidding when they call young Tommy Jacobs one of the coolest and calmest performers on the tour. Jacobs, the curly-haired 28-year-old professional from Ber muda Dunes, Calif., displayed both characteristics Sunday when he won the $40,000 Utan Open in a pressure-packed fin ish at the Salt Lake Country Club course. The up-and-down Southern Californian survived a shaky finish on the last two holes to win by one stroke over lean Don January. Young Jacobs, who had gone without a victory since the San Diego Open in 1362, finished with a final-round par 70 (or a 72-hole total of 272. January, a tall Texan who was the second round leader, had a final 6A and wound up with a 273. MAKES HALL OF FAME. DUN'EDIN, Fla.

READY-MIX CONCRETE Line Key To Corvallis Success in 1963 Season "The key is the line." That is the report from up Corvallis way on the 1963 pros pects for the Spartan football TZTJrl Medford high Black Tornado here on Friday night. Coach Lee Gustafson has a talented backfield of all letter- men. A fifth letterman is bid ding hard for a starting half back post. In the line, however, there are only two lettermen back from the 1962 team. So, it is there where the rebuilding work is going on. But Oustatson s forward wall problem may be solved with the help of a small handful of transfers. Three youths who have come from other schools are currently on the No. 1 line unit. A fourth is on the second crew. In the No. 1 backfield now are Bill Robertson, 185-pound Harris Leads Amateurs By LEO H. PETERSEN UPI Sports Editor DES MOINES, Iowa (UPD They were chasing Labron Har ris Jr., the mathematical genius with the geometrical putting touch, once again today as 128 hopefuls walloped their way into the second round of the U. S. Amateur golf championship. Harris, the bespectacled de fending champion from Oklaho ma State, romped into the sec ond round with as much ease as if somebody asked him wheth er two and two made a par four when he dusted off Bill Cow ardin, a VMI student from New port News, Va., 8 and 6. And, two under par, he was the only man to conquer the hilly, nar row Wakonda club course. A host of the favorites went with him, however, as he set himself up for a second round match against John McKey Jr., a 19-year-old University of Geor gia student who was the bene ficiary of a first-round bye. They included former U. S. and British Amateur champion Dcane Bemen, two-time cham pion Charley Coc, flamboyant Billy Joe Palton, former West Virginia legislator Bill Camp bell and 1962 British Amateur king Richard Davies. Some Are Upset Some of the names dropped by the wayside included such as 1955 runnerup Billy Hynd mcn, the handsome Philadelphia stockbroker; Dr. Ed Updegraff of Tucson, Ariz., the 1963 Brit ish Amateur runnerup, and Bob Lunn, the 18-year-old public links champion out of San Fran cisco. Bemen. a husky, 25-ycar-old from Bethesda, Md., roared to a 7 and 5 win over Dick Latimer of Washington, D. C. But he was only even par and now goes against Charley Polk of Clayton, Mo. UNINGER'S For . . . Home Improvements Driveways Sidewalks Patios 1 - ! 6-2 quarterback; Sandy Green, the same height and weight, at one halfback (the power back); Mark Gustafson, 175, son of the coach, halfback, and Dick Wa tenpaugh, 160, the wir.gback. All four are juniors. Fighting it out with Green for a starting assignment is Dick Girding, 185 pound senior halfback who averaged 8.1 yards per carry last year. Only line lettermen are Roger Hamlin, 210 tackle, and Tom Emang, 175 guard. They are among three seniors on the current first unit. A pair of transfers are at the ends Lyle Fagnan, 175, the other senior, from Cottage Grove, and Jim Blackford from Albany, also 175. From Montana Another 175-pounder, Dave Harris, a guard, is from Mon tana. At one first unit tackle is John Pittman, 200, who played ninth grade football but saw no play last year. The cen ter, Alan Sharpnack, 175, is up from the junior varsity. Fourth transfer on the squad is Scott McAllister, an end. Watenpaugh last season was all-league on defense. Gustafson was second team all league on offense and Blackford was also second team all conference. Gustafson has a total of just six seniors on his first two units. He told a Corvallis sports writ er, "By the middle of the sea son we might have a pretty good football team." Gustason is in his third sea son at Corvallis. Rivalry against Medford is not new for him. He coached South Salem clubs which met the Black Tornado. Simmons, Coleman Pace Trapshooters Merit Simmons and Ray Cole man each broke 24 of 25 birds Sunday in 16-yard trapshooting at Medford Gun club. Hugh McGinty also headed handicap shooters with 24 from 21 yards. At 16 yards Bill Poff, Everett Gibson, Ray Wyatt and Hugh McGinty each busted 23 clay targets. Wyatt shattered 23 al 21 yards in handicap. Dr. A. S. Anderson had high score and John Deaver second high at skeet but their scores were not listed.

As a result every pro scout within range will be watching him with interest. Kendo will team in a starting 1 backfield that has shifty senior Larry Hill at the other half; Lu Bain, a 9.9 man in the 100, at fullback; and Bob Berry at quarter. Casanova figures, too, to have a faster line than last season. The Ducks lost heavily by grad uation up front, but there seems to be adequate replacements, especially with the likes of guards Ron Jones and Dave Wilcox, centers Oliver McKin ney and Ron Stratton, and tack les Hon Berg and Lowell Dean. Rich Schwab, Dick Imwalle and Paul Burclson are back at ends, and a sophmore named Ray Palm is said to have one of the finest pair of hands dis played by an Oregon end in years.
