vantage point under tho grand

"It was worth a lot more than
the bond, just sitting there with
Roark," said Krause afterwards.
Llskey bought $19,400 In
bonds for the scat occupied by
Roark, and Krause bought a
$10,000 bond.
Before the game, Mr.'and Mrs.

game, to their Auburn street
home to meet Sergeant Roark.

Associated Press Sport Editor
Just to show that adages are
not always true, opportunity
knocked a second time at the
door of the New York Yankees
today.
The Bombers had a chance to
clinch the American league
championship yesterday and
muffed it, but nothing was lost
except a day and a ball game,
because they had another crack
at the same goal this afternoon.
- The odds were against the
Yankees yesterday. They had
taken two in a row from the
Detroit Tiger and they were
up against one of the best pitch
ers in the league, Paul (Dizzy)
Trout. He beat them 2 to 1,
with five-hit pitching and his
own home run in the eighth
inning. . .
Today the percentage favor
ed the Yanks. After being held
to one run in two consecutive
games they teemed certain to
do more scoring and in addi
tion their pitcher was to be
Spurgcon (Spud) Chandler, seek
ing his 20th victory-. -
The Washington Senators
were idle and will rest again
today, leaving the field clear
to the Yanks to clinch the
championship under their own
power.
Both the other games in the
American league went Into extra
innings. The Chicago White Sox
and Philadelphia Athletics bat
tled 16 innings to a 3-3 tie with
neither team scoring after the
sixth. Jesse Flores went the
route for the A's.
At Boston Joe Dlbson and
Ed Klicman, making his major
league debut, staged a spectacu
lar mound duel in which Dob
son gave only two hits as the
Red Sox beat the Cleveland In
dians 1-0 in 10 innings.
In the National league the
St. Louis Cardinals cracked the
Brooklyn Dodgers 5-1 with Lefty
Max Lanier pitching seven-hit
ball and Walker Cooper making
four hits in a game for the
third time in eight days. Lanier
pitched shutout ball till the
eighth, by which time the Red
birds had completed all their
scoring against Curtis Davis.
The defeat dropped the Dodg
ers into third place as the Cin
cinnati Reds nosed out the New
York Giants 5-4.
The Chicago Cubs spotted the
Phillies four runs in the first
inning and then battled back
to win 7-4 with a three-run rally
in the last half of the fifth be
fore weather halted play. Paul
Derringer, appearing in relief,
received credit for the 199th
victory of his career.

Victory After Schortgen,
Perkins Spark Touchdown
A low-flying kick from the toe
of Substitute End Jim Palmer
cleared the cross-bar by four
inches and gave Klamath a one
point margin of victory in Fri
day night's thrill-packed grid bat
tle with Grant high of Portland.
The score was 7 to 6, and it
was just about as close as that
throughout. With the outcome
in doubt until the final gun, the
spectators got their bonds' worth
and then some, and Frank Ram
sey' Pelicans were over another
hurdle on their way to 1943
gridiron glory. The game gave
the Third War Loan an $80,000
boost.
Grant used the T formation
effectively,-' and Walters and
Withers lunged through guard
and tackle; repeatedly for good
gains. Tne.uenerai were wen-
coached and smooth, and they 11
give their Portland opponent
plenty of 'trouble.
Schortgen, Perkins and Peter-
steiner shone in the Klamath
backfield. .Prairie, Conroy and
Coddington -were strong in the
Pelican line.
Grant scored first in the third,
and the Pelicans had to come
from behind to win. It was fiery
Bob Perkins and dependable
Hank Schortgen who packed the
ball most of the way on a 53-
yard drive for the tying touch
down in the fourth quarter. Per
kins rammed it over from the
three, and then Palmer came in
for the victory boot.
The blond left-end calmly
swung his leg, sending the ball
squarely between the uprights,
but barely over the crossbar. It
gave Klamath the same winning
score over Grant that ended the
Generals' . visit here . two years
ago. - It was the third straight
defeat the Pelicans have handed
the Portlanders, always one of
the toughest outfits in the inter-
scholastic league in the metropo
lis. .
Score on Pass
The Grant score last night
came on a beautiful pass, as
beautifully caught by the Gener
als' right-end, Milne. It was
thrown by Kach from the Klam
ath 42, and Milne took it on the
15, as Klamath's Silva reached
for an attempted interception,
Milne bumped, a covering Peli
can with his hip, and galloped
across the goal line. The kick
for point fell wide, giving Klam
ath the chance for victory later
on with just one touchdown,
The first half of the war bond
game went scoreless, but with
the play largely In Grant terri
tory as Klamath showed offen
sive superiority on the ground
and. knocked down half a dozen
Grant passes.
Klamath received on its own
26, and rolled two first downs to
the General 37, where Schortgen
kicked to the General 10. Grant
showed offensive spark immedi
ately, getting the ball back to
its own 40, but two penalties for
man-ln-motion and a 14-yard loss
because of a bad pass from center
forced the Generals to kick.
Silva ran the punt back to the
SO, Klamath again not going as
far as the General 28-yard line,
Dut were lost the ball on downs.
Grant found the going tough,
and Kach kicked out the 42 after
another bad pass from center.
The Pelicans were in a position
to threaten, and Silva and Schort
gen in successive plunges car
ried the ball to the General 17-
yard line. There Grant stiffened

The Generals swept down the

jab put the ball on the Pelican

Smith hit the Klamath center
for 5 yards, Kach's pass failed,
and on the next play Walters
broke through center for 25
yards and a touchdown. But
Grant was offside on the play,
and the score was cancelled.
Grant lost the ball on downs.
Interception
Perkins went in the game for
the Pelicans, and a drive got
underway to the Grant 39, where
Perkins' pass aimed for Codding
ton was grabbed by Milne. Cod
dington tackled Milne Immedi
ately, and it was Grant's ball on
its own 29.
Grant got nowhere, and Kach
kicked to Perkins on the Klam

Kimsey kieked off for the
Pelicans, and Smith carried it to
the Grant 38. Davis hit center
for a couple of yards, and Kach
got off a pass-to Walters that put
Grant on its own 48.' r. -
Grant gained 6 on the ground,
and then Kach pulled that swell
pass out of the bag, with Milne
taking the ball over the goal

The Pelicans received on their
own 39, and the boys began a de
termined effort for a tying
touchdown. . Perkins sparked the
lads on the comeback trail, but
Schortgen helped with steady
gains, and they went to the
Grant 18. The Generals took
time off, and that seemed to cool
the Pelican power. Perkins was
smothered for an 18-yard loss on
an attempted fourth-down pass,
and the Generals took over on
their own 39.
Prairie Recovers
With the aid of a penalty on
the Pelicans, the visitors drove
to the Klamath 28, but Grant
was then penalized IS and was
forced to punt from the 49. The
kick was partially blocked and
Prairie, Klamath guard, recover
ed on the Pelican 47 yard line.
It was from there that the

To Klamath Six
The rest of th fourth fliiarto .
