Investigation showed a llglnV ning bolt had fused two wires together, starting tho pump which filled a small lake nearby to overflowing. Oriiz, No Longer Scrawny, Faces Salica for Crown Br ROBERT MYERS LOS ANGELES, July 7 VP) Six years ago an 18-year-old Mexican farm worker stepped out of an audience at the ama teur fights In El Centro, Calif., and accepted a challenge to box as a substitute. The lad, scrawny Manuel Ortiz, knocked his opponent down 17 times and the next day decided to tako his first lesson in boxing. Next month this same scraw ny Mexican boy, now tho stale tltloholdcr, will step Into the ring at Hollywood stadium for a crack at clever Lou Salicn and Bud Ward Against Field, That's Setup for Western Amateur Golf By JIM THOMAS -SPOKANE, Wash.. July 7 (fp) Bud Ward against the field Is the sot-up today as the nation's amateur golfors tea off for their last big tournament of the yeor and In all probability the last of the war. Ward, a corporal in the air corps by virtue of hi enlistment shortly after Pearl Harbor last winter, will back away his clubs after tho western amateur cham pionships here this week and en train for officers training closed over tne uig arena as part of New York City's second wartime blackout. For 22 min utes the crowd that had cheered Itself hoarse for two hours sat tense and almost silent. Thoy sat as at a wake for the blasted hopes of the National leaguers, who had entered the tenth annual struggle with, a burning determination to win and had seen their chances van ish almost with the first pitch. Last night s came was over to all intents and purposes when Lou Boudrea u, Cleveland s handsome young manager, laced the second ball pitehed by Mort Cooper of the St. Louis Cardin als Into the deep left field stand. The Nationals from that Instant must have felt It was hopeless. The crowd did, any way. The next American "leaguer, Tommy Henrlch, bumped a dou ble Into right-center, and after the next two men went down big Rudy Yoyk of the Detroit Tigers lofted a homer Into the upper deck In right field. From there on, with tho American? boasting a three-run lead and their pitchers Spud Chandler of tho Yankees and big Al Benton of Detroit set ting the Nationals down Inning after Inning, there never was much doubt that the Junior leaguer had won their seventh victory In 10 nil star duels. Mickey Owen, the Brooklyn catcher whose failure to stop a third strike madn him the goat of the 1041 world series, saved his side from a shutout with a pinch homo run off Benton In tha eighth. He had first tried to bunt. He was the only National leaguer to get past second base. as Chandler and Benton Issued only six hits. Tho Americans gave their two pitchers brilliant support. York and Boudreau, not content with batting the Nationals into sub mission, each contributed a fielding gem. Joe Gordon, the Yankees' great second baseman, found the National league hurling purlieu larly puzzling, -striking out his first three times at bat and roll Ing out weakly on the fourth. His fielding, however, made up for his lapses at the plate. UNCANNY IBERIA, Mo.

Ortiz, needless to say, has come a long way since 1936, and he learned his lessons well In 1037 he won the national Golden Gloves flyweight title at Boston, and soon after began lighting professionally. The road hasn't been an easy one for Manuel to travel, how ever. He's had his troubles. This same Sollca throe years ago gave him a bad night, whipping him in 10 rounds.

Lou Boudraau Oregon Sport Notes By FRED HAMPSON Associated Press Staff Writer Morchmont Schwartz, the new football coach at Stanford, ap pears lo bo one of destiny's chil dren In tho sport. In the nine years since ha graduated at Notre Dame he has held more top Jobs than most men in the business get in a life time. He tops it all off with the head Job at Stanford which Is certainly one of football's choicer billet.'. Since Marchie left Notre Dame with A.B. and L.L.B. degrees and an All-America plaque, he has been successively: Hunk Anderson's - backfield coach at Notre Dame for two seasons. Clark Shaughncssy's backfield coach at Chicago U, for one sea son. Head coach and athletic direc tor at Crcighlon university for fivo season?. ShaughnusAx's assistant , . at Stanford for two seasons. To prove that the breaks are still working for Rockne's old line buckcr, two hcodcoaches hud lo quit the Stanford office to clear the way for Marchie. Shaughncssy's eye was caught by something attractive about thu Maryland coaching job, a post which would hardly seem to be in the same category with Stanford, Then Jim Lawson, who moved up at Stanford from as sistant coach, decided to enter the navy. Marchie marched in. Coast sports writers say that in reaching a top job in a con ference school at 33, Marchie is continuing to accomplish the un usual. The various other assist ant coaches elevated into top berths lately had long waits compared to Schwartz. Pest Welch waited a decade for Jim Phelan to give up at Washington. Stub Allison was a subaltern at California five years before he got the head Job, and that was considered a short wait. John Warren was six years as frosh coach at Oregon before he got a double promotion, through varsity assistant to head coach. The quick rise to head coach at a big school like Stanford for a youth like Marchie must be a little hard to take for fellows like Buck Bailey who under studied Babe Hollingbery for 15 seasons without getting a chance at the big job. Buck recently en tered the navy. Then there was Jeff Cravath who left USC last year for San Francisco U, despairing of ever reaching the upper notch at Troy. He scarcely departed be foro Howard Jones died. -Now Sam Barry has gone Into the navy and Jeff is lucky enough to have been called back. All In all, Marchie, Whose record Indicates he Is as good a coach as he was a player, nevertheless Is not without luck, Inheriting one of the biggest jobs In the sport after a sketchy apprenticeship. And mores in heriting a squad that looks like a winner. super-accurate Irons during the past years. Two of the field In particular --Corp.

They'll start the baseball game tonight betwaen the All Service team end the Ameri can league All-8Urs, victors over the National league, be fore a crowd of 60.000 to 70. 000. By CHARLES DUNKLEY CLEVELAND, O., July 7 Mi A great, patriotic throng of 60,- 000 to 70,000 spectators Is ex pected to comfortably fill Cleve land's massive Lake Front stadi um tonight to witness the great est stars in baseball battle to swell the fund of the Army and Navy emergency relief funds. The competing teams will be Uncle Sam's Soldiers and Sail ors managed by Lieut. Gor don "Mickey" Cochrane, one time pilot of the Detroit Tigers, and the ever-familiar stars of the American league, victorious in New York's Polo grounds last night over the National league All-Stars, 3 to 1. The American Leaguers will be led by the veteran Joseph Vincent Mc Carthy, manager of the world's champion New York Yankees. Bobby Feller, Cleveland's own great 23-year-old fireballer, or John Duncan Rlgney, former ace of the Chicago White Sox, both right banders, will be on the firing line at the start for the Service All-Stars, with Cleve land's Jim Bagby, another right hander, the choice of Manager McCarthy. Bagby has won nine and lost four to date. More than 45,000 tickets had been 'sold lasf night, and with favorable weather, thousands are expected to storm the gates when tha general admission tickets go on sale at 6 p. m. The spectacle figures to produce be tween $75,000 and $80,000 for the Service societies' funds. Lieut. Cochrane, supremely confident and determined to triumph, nevertheless had not decided upon his positive pitch ing choice or his starting line up today. It was the general Im pression that he would give the nod to the . idolized Feller for sentimental reasons and then throw Rigney into the fray when and if Feller got into trouble. If Feller starts, his catcher will be Vinnle Smith of the Pitts burgh Pirates, who caught Feller at the Norfolk, Va., naval train ing station. If Rlgney goes, his receiver will be Frankie Pytlak, former Cleveland and Boston Red Sox star. "We came here to win," Cochrane snapped. "We've got good pitching, a great defensive outfield and hitting power. We'll give 'em more than they are figuring on. They won't get many hits off us in that big ball park. If we can take 'em I'll be the happiest guy in the world." EDUCATED YEGGS ' DENVER (AP) A clerk In George Green's grocery store scrawled "beans" on a scrap of paper and left it on the cash reg ister so his boss would know where to find the day's receipts.

Recovery before the home town supporters is the incentive at Portland where the last-place Portland Beavers, who have been in a bad slump, meet their northern neighbors, the Seattle Rainiers for the first time this season. The San Diego Padres are ex pected to prove inhospitable hosts to the league-leading Sac ramento Solons who lead the third-spot Padres by five and one-half games. If the Padres give the Solons trouble, the runner-up Los An geles club could nose into first place by making up two and one half games at Oakland. A team enjoying a hot win spree has reason enough to show pepper on the diamond and backers of the San Francisco Seals hope their favorites can extend a five-game streak at the expense of Hollywood. Marine Electric 'Favored in State Semi-Pro Tourney SILVERTON, July 7 VP) Marine Electric of Portland be came the favorite in the state semi-pro baseball tournament last night by spilling Willamette Iron and Steel of Portland, 6 to 4. The electricians previously upset .the defending champions, Silverton. Johnny Mize Vaults In N.L. Batting Race Giant First-Sacker Leaps From Tenth To Sixth; Williams Tops in American NEW YORK, July 7 UP) Although he still is well down in the pack, the hottest member of the major league's hitting bri gade during the past week was Johnny Mize, New York first baseman. Mize, who was handicapped at the start of the season by a wandering tendon in Ws shoulder,, vaulted from, tenth, to sixth. place in the National league race,: boosted his average above .300 to .301 for the first time and retained his home run clouting honors.

The Philadelphia negro tangles with Sammy Angott, lightweight champion from Washington, Pa., and Louisville, Ky., in a non-title 12-rounder at Shibe park that is expected to draw close to 20,000 spectators and gross $40,000. Twice beaten by Angott In two previous meetings at Shibe park and Madison Square Gar den, Montgomery must win to night to regain the prestige he lost when Angott decisioned him last March 6 In New York, Determined to ruin Angott's scheduled July 31 fight with Ray Robinson in New York, Montgomery has altered his style during training at Summit, N. J. Instead of his usual bob and weave tactics he plans to punch away at long range in an effort to put the champion to sleep.
