THURSDAY, APRIL 1, 1954 HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON PAGE FIFTEEN Phi's New York Bowler lolls Perfect Game I SEATTLE 11 Tony Sparando pt Rego Park, N.Y. has been look ing for a 300 game In American Bowling Congress competition for 01 years and brother, he's happy. jHe found it here Wednesday. I The 48-year-old owner of a bowl iing center became the 13th man in SI years of ABC championships to jxoU a perfect game. He did it on 'his first appearance in singles fcompetltion and it looked as If he were the coolest man in the crowti- Sed house while he was knocking the pins down 10 at a time with thrilling regularity. His first shot went high on tho head pin but they all tumbled. Smith To Test Jim Byrne Saturday night's boxing card will give the local boxing fans another look at Jimmy Byrne as he meets tough Roger Smith In a scheduled ten round battle. Tho Byrne-Smith battle is the Hopper of a program that will have possibly 30 rounds of boxing. "Big Jim" made a very brief appearance in the Armory ring on March 6 against Al Winn of Vallejo, California. Byrne out weighted Winn by twenty five pounds and completely outclassed the smaller man in. posting a sec ond round knockout.- This week's battle will be a little different story as far as weight Is concerned and will prove to be good test for Byrne. Smith. San Francisco heavyweight, will weigh somewhere around the 305 pound mark when the two meet. Byrne weighs in about ten pounds heavier. In the semiwindup Bealty's Ralph Weiser will meet Smith's stable mate from Frisco, Al Moore, a scrappy Negro 139 pound er. The Weiser-Moore bout is sched tiled to go a distance of six rounds. George Bray will tangle with Vines Tero, another Californlan in a special 6 round event. This will be Bray's first six round outing as he is usually paired in a four rounder. Bob Barney and Dick Henry will (ight it out In one of possible two four round matches, Barney . Js from Sprague River and Henry is another Beatty fighter. Henry, by the way, is Welder's sparing partner when the two are prepar ing for a fight. Matchmaker Mack Lillard is looking for a good boxer to meet Duane McDanlel of Chiloquin, in another four round opener. Dick Reeder's Js handling the advance ticket sales of Saturday's big ring program, according to Lll-lard. From then on, he landed his ball in the 1-3 pocket for the next 11 strikes. The last one hit the com bination a little high and a couDle pins laitered agonizingly, rolled on tneir eages and plopped on their sides as the house went wild. Sparando, took olf his classes (without which he cannot see from Ms right eye), wiped the perspira tion wnicn suddenly had gathered on his forehead and sat down, bis coolness now gone. White faced, he turned to ABC oiticials and said: "I've been looking for this 300 game for 21 years and, brother, I'm happyl" Actually, it was not Snarando's first 300 game. He has rolled six in match and open play, but never before in ABC competition. The 5 loot 8 inch kegler finished his play with an 1867 pin mark, good for third place In the nil- events division and added a 245 and 178 to his singles action for a first place 723. In team competition he bowls for the Ronson Lighters team of Newark, N.J. But he was all alone with thou sands of people when he rolled that 300. . By BEN OLAN Associated Press Sports Writer Even the most ardent rooter for the Philadelphia Phillies will con cede that without an eifectlve Rob in Roberts, the club hasn't a ghost of a chance of winning the National League pennant. And Mr. Roberts' showing this spring can hardly be described as "effective." Just what, if anything, is bother- tog the strapping right-hander hasn't been determined. Maybe it's the heavy work (347 innings) he put hi last season. Or could he he's Just pacing himself. At any rate. Roberts is a far cry from the fircballing pVcher who won 107 games in his last five National League seasons. FIRST TIME Yesterday, the .6-foot-l'i native of Springfield, I1L, went the route for the first time this spring, but he was raked for 13 hits as the Phillies dropped a 7-2 decision to the Detroit Tigers. . The time before that (March 27), he was shelled from the mound In the fourth Inning after he had yielded seven runs to the Chicago White Sox. His over-all exhibition record is 0-3, which could augur a disappointing campaign for the 23 game winner of 1853. The Phillies are said to have strengthened their pitching staff with the acquisition of Murry Dick son and Johnny Lindell from Pittsburgh.- Curt Simmons and. Jim Konstanty have looked good in re cent outings, but If Manager Steve O'Neill can't count on Roberts for at least 20 victories, the' Phillies likely would settle for, fourth place right now. BIG GUN First baseman Charley Kress was the - big gun in the Detroit attack yesterday, blasting one of Bevo Gets Scoring Records From NCAA Coulson To Lead Archers Klamath Archers held a reor ganization meeting Sunday, March 28, at AHamont School.

NEW YORK 'Si The NCAA Service Bureau Thursday gave Bevo Francis a flock of new bas ketball scoring records to replace the ones the nation's coaches wouldn't let him keep last year.

The New York Giants, who look more formidable every day, scored their ninth victory in 12 starts against the Cievelands Indians, 4-3. The Tribe committed four errors.
