The los shoved the Klamath two full games back of the Crater. Saturday night the Klamath hopped on Clyde Carlstrom for a dozen runs in the first three innings to sew up the game right there. Eleven Pelicans, faced the lean Dorris hurler in the first and splattered four hits which two walks and three Dorris er rors made good for seven runs. Paul Crapo s home run in the first brought out a Dorris pro test when the ball bounded over the left center fence. The 'Jacks claimed he should have been held to a double but the umpire ruled it a homer. Eyestone and Hampton scored ahead of the sharpshooting Pelican out fielder. Dorris' principal threat came in the sixth when they assem bled five hits and made 'em good for four runs. Virge Hayncs gave the 'Jacks 12 hits. in the Saturday game and the Pelicans totaled an even dozen off Carlstrom. Sunday Ken Benham held the invaders to one hit until the fifth. Earl Brooks got the single, stole second and scored on an in tield out. In the filth, however, Red Tol bert's nine slashed out five hits and, with two walks and a sacri fice, tallied six runs. The Klamaths loilowed with one of their own as Larson, safe on a fielder's choice, romped home on Gross' double. In the sixth, the Pelicans counted thrice, one of 'em a homer by Hauield over the left field barrier. They knotted the count with two in the seventh and one in the ninth. The tying run was driven in by Crapo with a long double. He later tried to swipe home but was tagged out with what would have been the win ning run. Dorris tucked the game away in the tenth with three. The locals outhit the visitors, 14-11 in the Sunday game. Bill Cecil did the chucking for the Lumberjacks.

Armory PHONE FOR TICKET RESERVATIONS Tho Rialto Catlbrry's The Waldorf Lord Byron Boots Lead in 'Shanter Foce Hcofner Today in , Playoff for Pro Crown After Collapse With 77 By GAYLE TALBOT CHICAGO, June 27 P) By-' ron Nelson, shaken by one of the most amazing collapses in the history of big-time golf, went out bleakly today to battle Clay ton Heafner of Linvllle, N. C, in an 18-hole playoff for $2500 first money in the Tarn o'Shantcr ' open tournament. The starting time was noon PWT. Nelson, the tall ex-Texan, was a woebegone figure, and a lot of exceptionally smart money had - aayt Kea.'ucr Byron Nelson been bet over-night that he would lose to Heafner, the blond giant who won the Mahoning Valley tournament at Gerard, Ohio, a few weeks ago with an astonishing 72-holc total of 284. It was a crusher what hap pened to Nelson yesterday. Ono of the world's great golfers, he--shot a miserable 77 over a course whose true par is about 70, to dissipate a lead that had looked impregnable and finish in a tie with Heafner, each with 280 strokes for the four rounds. Heafner, having posted an or dinary 72 on his final round, and i harboring no real hope ot any- thing better than second or third money, became one of possibly J0.000 spectators who, watched almost unbelievingly as Nelson blew sky-high in the course of a stretch duel with Lawson Little. Nelson started the day five strokes in front of Heafner; eight ahead of Little. He was considered to be "in," the clos ing round to be a mere formal ity. Yet when they began trying to move the record golf crowd out of Tarn o'Shanter last night the scoreboard read: Nelson 280, Heafner 280, Little 281. Nobody else was even close. Harry Not telbladt of Avon, Conn., held the next place' all by himself at 284. ........ ... , i Front Runners NATIONAL LEAGUE Batting -Kt'is-r, Bruoklfn, ,354; Tjomba di. Ko8toli. .340. Run!, Ott.
