Unknown's Homer Maintains Bosox Win Streak Br The Associated Press Leon Culberson, spare hand who never quite made the var sity, is Boston's fair haired boy today because of his 14th inning home run with the bases loaded that stretched the Red Sox win atreak to 12 straight. Although Culberson has been with the Sox for three years and played in 97 games last season, Manager Joe Cronin has used him primarily for defense and awitched to lustier swatters when he needed runs. The 26-year-old Georgian has played all the outfield positions, filling in for Ted Williams in Mad Mike Wrestles Martinelli Mad Mike Naiarian, Hungar ian battler from Hollywood, comes to Klamath tomorrow night with the reputation of be ing one of the roughest, toughest matmen on the west coast. He Is signed to fight Angelo Martinelli, the Buckeye Beauty who is getting to be something of a trial horse for every new muscler on the circuit. Martinelli fights one and all and is not a boy to be overawed by an opponent's reputation. His brawl with the Hungarian is slated to open the armory rassle card tomorrow and will be of four 10-minute rounds duration. On top of that battle, two six rounders have been lined up. The first celebrates the return of the ex-marine. Buck Davidson, after being absent since the close of hunting season last fall. Davidson strikes up an ac quaintance with another ex leathemeck, Big Bob Keneston, Gold Hill specialist, in the first of the main event bouts. The perennial Tough Tony Boss, who amid cheers and jeers last week with partner Pete Bel castro lost a wild team match, this week grapples with one of the best in the business, Red mond's Joe Lynam. That is the other full-length bout, rounding out a card which figures to be a dandy. Roosevelt Cops Softball Meet Roosevelt won the city grade school B softball championship last night by defeating Fairview 17-11. Fairview had turned back Mills Tuesday afternoon. The Roughriders, coached by Ed Attebury, were undefeated through the tourney. Deets, Shearer and Bell each scored three runs in helping along Roosevelt's cause in the final game. The runnerup team was coached by Steve Mosher. This afternoon about 160 grade school girls are taking part .in the spring softball playday on Roosevelt field, under the supervision of the girls' physi cal education teachers. Next event on the grade school agenda for boys is the city track meet to be held on Modoc field next Wednesday af ternoon. STANDINGS $ PACIFIC COAST LEAGUE W. L..

The victory left Oakland in third place but like second-ranking Los Angeles three games be hind the pace-setting San Fran cisco Seals. The Seals beat Sac ramento, 9 to 6, while the San Diego Padres rapped out a 5-1 decision over the Hollywood Stars. Los Angeles and Portland were idle, with a doubleheader scheduled today. San Francisco's invasion of Sacramento reaped the seventh victory of the season against one loss lor Cliff Melton, ex-New York Giant.
