4 HE EVENING HERALD, KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON Juno C, 1U30 Beaver Victory Puts Oaks in Second Place PA(JE TWO COAST BATTERS BLAST HURLER Caster of Portland Only Pitcher to Last Full Nine Innings. By The Associated Press There were plenty ot Coast league managers to agree witn P. K. Wrigley In the thought, "It seems to be a bad year on . Ditching all around." Twenty-one hurlers were call' d to duty in the four coast games Friday, only one ot mat multitude had a good night. He was George Caster ot Portland, the only starting pitcher to nn- lsh. Oaks in Second Place His seven-hit performance ' drnnnnd Oakland down 13-4 in to a second place tie with the Missions and boosted Portland over San Diego into tilth place. Instrumental In the change of standings was Seattle's eleven Inning 7- victory over Sacra mento, lios Angeles- -i inumpn over San Diego, and the Missions 12-9 win from the San Francisco Seals. The victory sent the Trine into first Dlace. Caster was aided by the potent : batting ot third baseman Fred Bedore and catcher Earl Brncaer. Each got three hits, including s homer with one on, driving in nine runs between them. Every Beaver batsman nit bat short ton Dudley Lee, who contribut ed one ot the three errors that cave the Oaks two unearned runs. Wild Throw Fatal A wild throw by shortstop Joe Dobbins, over-eager to 'cut off Hank Bonettl at third, de elded the Seattle game In the eleventh. He was trying for. a double play after fielding Art Hunt's (rounder. Fred Muller, Seattle second aacker, hit a four- bagger and two aingles in live times up,, but was outshone for consistency at bat by Jim Orilk, Senator first baseman, who con nected four times in live trips to the date. A drizzling rain brought out a bevy of errors at San Francisco out didn't atop the Missions from completing three donble plays to break no Seal threats. Nor am It stop brilliant yonng Joe Marty of the Seals from stealing nome standing np, much to the sur prise of catcher Chuck Outen, and hitting three out oi xonr. But the raid did furnish some excnse for three Seal errors, two ot them by shortstop Hal Rbyne, on which the Reds scored four runs and took the game. A game Just as badly spotted with errors was won for Los Angeles by Cleo Carlyle'a nlnth- lnnlng homer, scoring Don Hurst ahead of htm.

Wrestling Record to Fall in Armory Clash Klamath Falls' hottest wrest ling battle ot the year Bnde Chick of Wyoming against Pete Belcastro ot Klamath can't end in anything but a victory tor one of . the two heavyweight stars. Signing the undefeated grap- piers on a no-tltne-llnilt basis, the match will go on until one or the other has suffered the loss of two falls or la unable to continue.. With the defeat ot either Dude Chick or Pete Belcastro, a re cord - for straight wins will go Into the discard. Belcastro. Jun ior heavyweight champion of the Pacitle coast, has not been beat en In Klamath Falls this season. The only blight ' against his record is a draw with the cow boy two weeks ago. Chick s record is even better. Since he wrestled his first match here last winter, the Wyoming cowboy has never been beaten. Most amazing ot the whole situ ation, however. Is that Chick has lost but one fall. He was set down by George Wilson In a match that ended In a draw. Later Chick scored, a decisive victory over the former Univer sity of Washington football ace, Next Tuesday's clash is the upshot of Belcastro e victory over Cecil McGill of Los Ange les. The junior champion gained the win through the use ot un fair tactics.. Chick, resentful In the display. Immediately issued a public challenge. After some dickering, Belcas tro agreed to all points except the risk of bis championship. Mack Llllard, promoter, said Saturday the brisk sale ot tick ets thus far Indicated a capa city bouse. An effort will be made to Increase the armory's seating capacity. ; Although overshadowed by the main event, two one-hour bouts promise some real wrestling ac tion. Bob Kennaston and Al Stecher will open the card, and Ted Christy and Juan Vlgarlo will wrestle tire wlndap. New Scoring Record Possible for United States Open SPRINGFIELD. N. J. June 6. (Jf) A new scoring, record for the United States ' open golf championship definitely appeared In the making today . over the Baltuarol club course and there in lies a story ot a combination of fear and fair-play. Club officials, eager to save themselves from any of the criti cism levelled - at Oakmont's treacherous furrowed traps and crew haircut ' greena, mowed the rough until it looked like some slightly neglected front lawn. Thai, It seemed. It was in the cards for a lowering ot the 20- year old record ot 28 s made by Charles F. (Chick) Evans. Jr., in 1911 at MInlkahda, Minnea polis, and duplicated by Gene Sarazen at Fresh Meadow four years ago. Barring debacles In form, any one of 13 appeared to have a good chance of turning the trick. Setting the pace at 140, four under par, were a pair of young and shrewd professional shot- makers, tall Vie Ghezzi of Deal, N. J., and Ray Mangrum of Day ton, Ohio. One shot behind were Denny Shute, 1932 winner of the Brit ish open crown, Henry Picard, the tournament betting favorite, Johnny Revolts, American . pro fessional tltllst, and ''Light Horse" Harry Cooper, the threat ening Chicago atyltst. Shute waa a "dark horse," but the other three loomed aa bright beta to succeed Sam Parka Jr., who relinquished the crown yes terday by failure to qualify for the stretch run. Parka totaled 152 for the first two rounds. missing out by one stroke. Tony Manero, Greensboro, N ft, stood at 142. Ralph Gul- dahl, the towering, curly-haired 1933 runner-up, and Charles (Chuck) Kocsls, big ten college champion from Michigan and low amateur thua far, were bracket ed at 143. Paul Runyan and Clarence Clark, Joint leaden with Man grum at the end ot the first round, Frank Moore of Cleveland and Jack Munger, bespectacled Dallas Simon-pure, made up the group even with regulation fig ures, 144. Further down the list and ap parently out ot the range of the title were Walter Hagen, winner way back in 1914 and 1919. and the veteran MacDonald Smith at lit, and seven other ex-cham- plons; Gene Sarazen at 147: Bill Burke and Johnny Goodman. 148: Tommy Armour and John ny Farrell, 150. and big Olin Dntra and "Chick" Evans, 151.

Indians Defy Death Sunday in Celebration KELLER, Wash., June 8 (P) Indians will spear fish and defy death In a daring downhill pony race here tomorrow in one of the native's last stands against dominance of the white man and his hot dog stands. Hundreds of tribesmen, their squaws In mocassins and papooses on their backs, were gathered to day for the first fishing and rodeo of "Keller Salmon Days." For the first time in several years, the salmon were reported running up the San Poll river on the celebration date. Several thousand white snee- taiors to tne fishing, rodeo stunts, frontier escapades and daredevil horsemanship are ex- pectea tomorrow. . Mutterlngs of dissatisfaction are reported from the tribal tepees because of the white man's encroachment upon the natives' hot dog rights. The downhill race Is the bin attraction. Young braves risk the cracking of a skull or snaDnlnz vi a leg witn as little concern as tneir wilder forebears. Trained ponies rush and slide headlong down a hill in five mlnutea which they have climbed bv a mora circuitous route In two hours. The celebration originally was the tribesmen's frollo over the salmon catch. It bas grown as a popular attraction with a repu tation of being one of the moat natural of the northwest Indians' performances. Spectators come irom atar even farther than the salmon smell.

Batteries for the Grants Pass- Klamath Pelican game will srob ably be Hardy and Drolette and Oakes and Deerlng.
