Klamath Nipped By Frosh The Pelicans lost a close 8-8 baseball decision to the University of Oregon Frosh Saturday at Eu gene when a disputed decision in the sixth Inning went against the Kiamatn nine ana nipped iour run rally. Ing Montgomery had knocked In two runs with a single and Clay Hannon did the same. Two men were still on base and two were out when Ron Owing was tagged off first on a hidden-ball play. Pelican Coach John McOtnnls claimed it was a balk and should have scored the man from third to tie the count and the Klamath mentor had many supporters for his claim. But the decision stuck and the Pels couldn't push across a run in the seventh. Don Dexter got three hits in four trips to lead the Pels: George Hanson had two for four and Louie Taucher two for three.
