TWO HERALD AND HEWS Cards Edge Giants, 4-3, With Ninth Inning Spurt Yankees Trip Indians, 4-3; Bengals Lose To Boston; Drop 2 Games Behind Br JACK HAND (Aiioclatad Press Sport Writer) Bill Voiselle's surprising form reversal had baseball tongues wagging today as the New York; Giants continued to drop back toward the pack in the National league. All was serene in Mel Otts camp when Big Bill from Ninety Six, S. C reeled off eight successive mound tri umphs but since Voiselle was belted out in Cincinnati 10 days ago, the New Yorkers have faltered. It looked as though Voiselle was about to register his in itial victory of the first western jaunt last night but the St. Louis Cardinals spurted for three in the last of the ninth to tip the score in their favor, 4-3. Gama Held Up Voiselle really had an excuse for that one although it would HOW THEY I ill .

' C V,' sMrtyini DON DOUGLAS '"jEffe Saturday, June 2. 1945 be hard to find any logical reason for his failure to last more than three innings in three previous starts, two of this he was charged with losing. The ace righthander held a 3-1 lead going into the ninth at Sports man's park and had given up one more run when a severe wind and rain storm interrupt ed play for almost an hour. When Voiselle again took the hill, Ray Sanders greeted him with a score-tying single and Whitey Kurowski tripled to win the game for Reliefer Harry Brecheen. It was the Giant's fifth setback in their last six games. - Reds Trip Bums Bucky Walters recovered from a shaky start by going 13 innings for Cincinnati to beat Brooklyn, 6-3. Frank McCor mick's three-run homer broke up the marathon night duel. The win stretched Cincinnati's victory string to six. Pittsburgh, which took over second place by a 6-5 shade over Philadelphia, holds a three percentage point edge on the Cards and Brooks, who are tied for third. Chicago's tilt with Boston was washed out in the fifth be fore the Braves could make it legal, with Mort Cooper holding a 5-1 edge at the time. Yanks Sock Indians New York's Yankees greeted Cleveland like long lost rela tives after a tough series with Detroit and pummeled the In dians, 9-2, behind Floyd Bevens five-hitter, Yank Catcher Mike Garbark finally broke his hit famin with two singles after going 50 times for only one hit all season. Detroit dropped two full games behind the Yanks by bowing to Boston, 6-4, when Walt Wilson and 18-year-old Bill Pierce walked in two runs with the bases loaded. Dave Ferriss, appearing as a pinch hitter, strolled to force in the tie-breaking score. White Sox Nip Solons Washington had the same trouble when Walt Holborow passed three Chicago batters in succession to hand the White Sox an 11-9 decision in the nth. Sig Jakuckis three-hit, 4-0, whitewash of Philadelphia for St. Louis was the finest job of the day and the Brownie hurler helped his own cause with a triple that started the. scoring !(f lT 4 LI .rDiTiiT.

I 'Gorgeous George' Guzzles Katonen In Main Mat Tiff By PAUL HAINES Gorgeous GeorRe Wagner may be the "Toast of the Coast," but he's Just a short drink of water to Paavo Katonen. George suc ceeded in dumping Paavo Inst night in two out of three falls in the headline tiff on Promoter Mack Lillnrd's crunch card, but he knew he had been to the wars after it was all over. Wagner carried on an inter esting conversation with Referee Wally Moss throughout most of the tussle which went some thing like this: Wally: Break the hold, George. George: Why? Wally: That's a choke hold. Fishing Forecast Is Poor PORTLAND, June 2 (-11 Weekend anglers were warned by the state came commission not to expect much luck tomor row in generally high and roily streams. The fishing forecast was "poor" for most eastern and southern Oregon areas, and the coastal section was virtually "washed out." Wardens said Columbia coun ty streams are clearing, and Lane county rivers should be good with another week of clear weather. Benton and Coos coun ties reported streams in fair condition. The Deschutes river yielded a few good catches during the week. Marine Nine Set To Meet Sailors Sunday Afternoon Klamath Falls sports fans will get their first glimpse of two local service teams Sunday at 3 p. m. at Recreation park when the marines from the Marine Barracks clash with the sailors from the naval air sta tion. Rainy weather has forced the postponement of all baseball games in this area to date, but it is hoped that the diamond will be in sufficiently good con dition to allow the ball came Sunday. A game is also scheduled be tween the two clubs this after noon at the air station, but due to limited seating capacity only servicemen will be permitted to attend. The game tomorrow is open to the public free of charge. . George: No it ain't. And so on far into the nigm. Gorseoua Gati Mad George took time out to argue with the fans, the reicrec. alio almost came to blows with his second. In other words, Gor geous was a bit irked with one and all. Wagner took the first fall In the third canto by going under Paavo and seizing him by both legs and pinning his shoulders to ho rosin wun a nom wnicn we shall call a "Wagner spe cial" in lieu of something more specific. In the fourth heat Kntonen almost broke Wagner's back by slamming him against the cor ner ring post and then ovened the count with a hRtigman's hold. In the fifth stanza the boys settled down to work in earnest. Both went so far as to climb the ropes seeking an ad vantage and tlieso tactics finally ended with Paavo heaving George out of the ring. Wagner Takes Match As Wagner attempted to climb back into the square, Paavo threw Moss to one side to get a clear shot at his rival, but Georgie had had time to get set and hung a beauty on Raton en's button and took the match with a full body press. Paavo stormed and ranted and was last seen pursuing George into the dressing room. That dressing room must be the scene of some dandy battles. Laone Downs Ackln Antone Leone guzzled Kenny Ackles. the Hollywood Wonder Boy, in the seml-windup by using methods he must have picked up on New York's east side. He gouged, pulled hair, used his closed fist and made himself generally objectionable but he won. With tho count a fall apiece, Ackles missed with a shoulder butt and Leone fell on him to take the bout with a body press. In the curtain-raiser Georges Dusettc topped "Speedy" Ma loney with his standing full-Nelson after "Speedy" had lived up to his handle by displaying bursts of swiftness that would have made "Man-of-War" noth ing but a show horse. When ever Dusettc went after his fa vorite hold, Moloney ran so fast that he could have outrun Jesse Owens from a standing start. This bout was far and away the best display of real rassling Baksi by knocking out Steve was a good, clean match. Next Friday the boys of Cauliflower Row will slug it out again for the patrons of Punch Plaza with at least one new face appearing on the card. New York Taml Maurlello 200, New York, knocked out Steve Dudas, 198, Edgewater, N. J., 1.
