DOWN AND OUT is Georgie Price in last night's main event of the armory boxing card after
Jimmy Grow of Boise landed a left hook and a short but fast straight right to Price's chin in
the eighth round of the scheduled ten rounder. Grow, the Idaho state lightweight champion,
started slow and began picking up steam in the fifth round to soften Price up for his eighth
round barrage.

Idaho Champion Knocks Out
Georgie Price In 8th Round
Jimmy Grow, the Idaho Light
wpiirht hamDion made Quite f
few friends with his hard hitting
fast moving boxing style in last
night's main event of the armory
uni atH a a hf THlSted . all
eighth round knockout over
Georgie Price 01 uernu.
Price's hopes of a successful
comeback to the ring wars
after four years in the Navy
were cut short by a blistering
,,. v,v nri thpn a lightning
quick short right hand that sent
the Merrill weiierweism
canvas for Referee Waliy moss
10 count.
The 10 round main event opened
on a slow note, with Price forc
ing the fight for the first three
or four rounds, as he belted the
Lewlston lightweight with hard
rights ana lens 10 inc uuuy nu
head.
In the fifth round. Grow began
to pick up the pace that Price
had been leading and landed some
........ niti hinw tn the head, face
and body of the Merrill battler
along with a consistam jainiiB
lefi jab. , . .
TV. eivth anrl RPVPllth VOlindS
were very good rounds for Grow as
he countered wltn some nara riKis
that didn't seem to hurt the Klam
ath Basin battler too much, but
seventh round seemed to slow
Price down from his early fight
pace quite a bit.
Midway through the eighth round,
Grow uncorked a solid left hook
that caught Price flush on the
side of the head and hurt, the Mer
rill fighter.
After a quick exchange by both
fighters in the middle of the ring,
r.mw InnrioH hit Uohlnlnir fast left
hook-straight right combination
tnat sent rice aown ior ine ieu
count.
Attnv tha fio-lil Omar Kintprt that
he would like to come back to
Klamath Falls and- fight again.
He also had high praise for Price
onri -tnritrntprf that he would like
to meet him in another bout If It
could be arranged.
In the six round semi-windup
the armory boxing fans witnessed
another top battle, this time be
tween Ralph Weiser and Georgie
Dixon of Seattle, as the Beatty
Bomber took a six round decision
over Bob Wark's classy welter
weight. This bout also started slow, but
was soon livened up with some
sharp toe-to-toe battling that had
the armory fans on the edge of
their seats.
The third, fourth and fifth
rounds seemed to give weiser tne
advantage on the Judges score
cards as the Beatty Battler coun
tered with some very hard blows
that didn't hurt Dixon too much,
but slowed his pace down.
Darrell . Harrington knocked out
Eddie Brown in the second round
of their scheduled six rounder,
while Frankie Sharp of Seattle
punched his way to a six round
decision over Bobby Barney in the
other scheduled six stansa bout.
Harrington landed a sharp right
to Brown's head that sent the
Indian battler to the floor for a
nine count, and when Brown re
gained his feet Harrington pounded
home another right flush on the
Jaw that dropped Brown like a
stuck pig.
Sharp came back from taking an
eight count In the third round to
whip Barney, who had run up four
straight knockouts before last
night's bout, with another one of
Wark's Seattle fighters.
Barney who seemed to be off
his regular fighting style, had
Sharp bleeding from the face In
the fourth, but Sharp continued to
find the range with some solid
blows and an annoying Jab that
kept Barney off balance.
In the four round opener of one
of the best fight cards held in
the armory for some time, Duane
McDaniel of Chiloquin made short
work of his bout with Dale Mingo
by scoring a first round TKO over
the Klamath boxer.
McDaniel had Mingo bleeding
badly from the face when Moss
topped the bout that could have
done further damage to Mingo.

Unless Lefty O'Doul can get his
Padres back on the winning track,
next week's series between Holly
wood and San Diego may prove
to be antlclimactlc Instead of a
showdown for the Pacific Coast
League pennant.
Hollywood bowled over Sacra
mento again Friday nlgnt,
while San Francisco was making
It two straight over the second
place Padres, 10-7. This turn of
events put San Diego 3 't games
behind the stars, and with the
season ending September 12,
O'Doul's club will have to do a
quick about face. Hollywood finish
es its schedule against second-division
teams, while San Diego's
last month is against tougher foes.
A triple by Bob DiPletro drove
in two runs in the ninth at San
Diego and wound up a three-run
rally that saddled the defeat on
Eddie Erautt, the third Padre
pitcher, who had taken over in
the seventh.
Jim Walsh and E d Wolfe of
Hollywood limited Sacramento to
five hits while the Stars got 13 off
Marino Pieretti. Bill Humphrey,
who was released by Sacramento,
played right- field for the Stars
and got three hits in four tries,
but had to leave the game In the
eighth after hurting his leg as lie
was tagged out trying to score.
Frank Kelleher, who replaced
him, singled across two runs in
the ninth.
Ernie Brogllo, recalled from the
California ' League by Oakland,
pitched the Acorns to an 8-2 win
over Portland. He gave only five
lilts. It was the second straight
victory for the 19-year-old since
he was brought back from Mo
desto. Bill Boemler, the losing
pitcher, tagged Brogllo lor a hom
er. Two errors by the usually re
liable Eddie Baslnkl, Portland sec
ond baseman, contributed ' to the
Beavers' downfall. The bases were
loaded In the sixth when he boot
ed Jim Marshall's grounder and in
the fifth he booted a grounder by
Marshall that put a runner in
scoring position.
Los Angeles whacked Seattle.
4-2, as Johnny Pyecha outpitched
three Rainier chuckers. Los
Angeles had lost nine straight
games to Seattle, but Bob Usher's
double with the bases loaded in
the third proved to be all that
Pyecha needed. The Angels got
only six hits to Seattle's nine, but
made the most of them.

The Eldorado Lumberjacks tra
vel to Lakeview tomorrow after
noon to meet the Gems in what
could decide the second place po
sition in the Oregon California
League standings.
Manager Hi Hatfield's ball club
will field one of the heaviest
hitting clubs in the league, but a
leaky Infield and outfield has been
the downfall of the Lumberjacks
on numerous occasions.
Led by the hitting of Art Ray
mond and Hatfield the 'Jacks will
meet a club that has been play
ing better ball as the season ad
vances towards the finish.
Bobby Long will probably be on
the mound against the Eldorado
club tomorrow and Lakevlew's
power hitter Wes Dollarhlde will
probably be holding on to his usual
first base, position. Another Gem
that has given the Lumberjacks
trouble In past games is Benny
Moore, the ex-BIy high school bas
ketball, football and baseball star.
The Lumberjacks will probably
send Fran Miller to the mound, al
though JoJo George could also be
sent to the pitcher's mound against
the Gems, while Art Westhouse or
Ron Owings will get the call for
the catcher's position.
In the Eldorado infield, Hatfleid
will have Irv Whltt at first base,
Dick Lundsten at second base and
Don Sunitsch, the University of
Washington athlete, at third.
Owings will probably get the call
for shortstop, but Leroy Coleman
could also take over the right hand
side of the keystone combination
if Hatfield needs him.
Willie Dunster will probably be
In left field, with Art Raymond
flanking Hatfield in the right field
position. The outfield of Dunster,
Raymond and Hatfield is a power
laden trio that can be expected to
hit the long ball.
John Niles and Don Dexter are
two other ball players who can be
called upon to add further assis
tance to the 'Jack lineup if they
are needed. Dexter is an lnfielder,
while Niles is an ex-Medford high
outfielder.
In the other league action to
morrow, Alturas plays host to the
league leading Bend Loggers In a
battle between the last and first
place ball clubs.

Look For
Fast Time
VANCOUVER, B. C. 11 The
miracle men of the mile, Roger
Bannister and John Landy, tangle
today for the British Empire title
and both of them think the time
will be very close to 4 minutes.
' I think I'll be getting down to
four minutes if I'm to win," says
Doctor Roger, the English interne
who was first to crash the 4-minute
barrier.
And Landy. Australia's national
hero who claims the world record
at 3:58 guesses "it certainly won't
be much over 4 minutes, but per
haps 4:02 or 4:03 will win it. I
don't think It will be under 4."
Although the world views this as
a duel (between Landy and Bannis
ter one of the six others in the race
could steal through to victory If
the big stars falter. New Zealand's
Murray Halbert is the most likely
upset winner. Murray ran the fast,
est heat in the preliminaries Thurs
day at 4:07.4 and has done 4:04.
Asked why he set such a blister
ing pace in the qualifier, Halberg
said seriously, "I Just thought I
needed the workout."
When the eight strong men line
up at the starter's call at 2:40
p.m. Pacific Daylight Time tele
vision cameras will flash the pic
ture across the North American
continent and radio will tell the
story to the far corners of the
globe.
Rain or shine and the forecast
calls for cloudy but dry weather
at race time a capacity crowd of
35.000 will jam Empire Stadium
for the climax moment of the
eight-day program.
Other things will be going on
like the marathon race which Eng
land's Jim Peters is expected to
win as he wishes. And the ham
mer throw and pole vault and
some relays will be tossed In as
frosting, but the mile Is the real
dessert of the day. ,
England has "won" the games.
No olficial team scores are kept
but unofficially the English were
so far ahead last night they
couldn't be overhauled. On a late
count the points were 441 ,2 for
England, 323 for Australia, 286
for Canada, and the other 21 na
tions were trailing far back of
these leaders.

INDIANAPOLIS (Al Bill Wool
rey, a 19-year-old Hawaiian who
is being called heir apparent to
frfestyle champion Ford Konno,
got another shot at his fellow
Islander in the National AAU
swimming championships today
after missing by about a finger's
length yesterday.
They had Identical times of
2:10.6 In the 20-meter freestyle
but the Judges rullcd Konno
slapped the wall first for his sec
ond victory of the four-day meet.
He repeated as 1,500-meter cham
pion Thursday.
Konno, a 21-year-old Ohio State
University , student, and Woolsey,
who'll be an Indiana University
sophomore this fall, were to Jump
into Broad Ripple Pool again In
the 400-meter freestyle. Konno Is
the defending champion but Wool
sey beat him at the distance In
Hawaii last month.
Woolsey, one of. 12 children in
a Hawaiian-German-English fam
ily, ' also was entered In the IO
meter freestyle today but there he
probably was a little out of his
depth against Richard Cleveland,
another Honolulu product who
holds the American record of 56.4
seconds.
Barbara Stark of San Francisco,
who set a new AAU record of
2:47.9 in the 200-mctcr backstroke
Friday, went after a second title
today in the 100-meter back which
she won last year by 110 yards.
Joauln Capllla of Mexico City
and Pat McCormlck of Los An
geles were favored to hold their
championships in diving events
today after victories yesterday.
Capllla, fifth In the 3-meter spring
board diving in '53, won It. yes
terday with defending champion
Bob Clotworthy of Fort Knox, Ky.,
taking second, Mrs. McCormlck
took the platform title away from
Paula Jean Myers of Indian

Capllla was a heavy favorite
today in the men's 1-meter event
and Mrs. McCormlck was expect

Associated Press Sportswrlter
Charley Grimm says he has the
best team In the National League
and he thinks It can win the
pennant.
Even when confronted with fig
ures which show he should be ar
rested for violating the law of av
erages if he's right, the Milwaukee
manager maintains his confidence
in his athletes.
The Braves are 9'3 lengths back
of the New York Giants with 49
games left.
"Sure we're pretty far behind,"
Grimm agrees, "but we're still
definitely In the race and with al
most seven weeks to go we could
do It,
"My team Is playing at its peak
for the season. We've had good
pitching all along. Now the hitters
are helping out and that's why
we're winning."
It the Giants maintain their cur
rent pace they will end up with a
98-56 record for the season. To
catch up the Braves would need to
win at least 40 of their remaining
games. And then they still have to
deal with the Brooklyn Dodgers,
currently four games back of New
York and 5'j In front of Milwaukee.
The Braves took a big step in the
rignt direction last nlgnt by whip
ping the Giants 6-5. In doing so.
they took some personal revenge
on Johnny Antonelll who was shoot
ing for his 12th straight victory.
Antonelll turned out to be the
prize package in the winter deal
that sent outfielder Bobby Thom
son Iran tne Giants to the Braves.
The lefthander had beaten his ion
mer mates twice before this sea
son. Thomson is rounding into
pinch hitting shape after being out
since spring training with a broken
ankle.
The Braves pounded Johnnv for
five runs on six hits and bounced
him In the fourth Inning. One more
run off relief man Al Worthlngton
was enougn to allow them to with
stand a home run barrage by the
Giants. Al Dark hit a pair and Rav
Katt and Dusty Rhodes hit one
each, but all four came with the
bases empty.
Brooklyn clipped Cincinnati 8-1,
one of the few times recently that
tne uoagers nRve been able to take
advantage of the Giants' misfor
tunes. Philadelphia defeated Chi
cago 7-4 and the lowly Pittsburgh
Pirates slapped down St. Louis
twice, 7-3 and 6-9.
The pennant picture remained un
changed in the American League
as all three contenders triumphed.
Cleveland defeated Philadelphia
7-3. New York shaded Detroit 4-3
and Chicago trounced Washington
1U-3.
Boston edged Baltimore 3-1 In 10
innings on Ted Williams' 20th home
run with a man on base.
Russ Meyer and Jackie Robinson
teamed up for the Brooklyn vic
tory. Meyer pitched a three-blttcr.
his first complete game in Brook
lyn this season, and Robinson
drove In three runs on three hits,
a home run, double and single.
i-un Himmons)I tne Phillies out
lasted the Cubs for his 10th vic
tory. Two doubles by Bobby Mor
gan and a two-run triple by Richie
Ashburn helped out.
Preston Ward drove in the win
ning runs In each Pittsburgh vlctorv
over the surprised Cardinals. He
hit a homer with two aboard In the
first and a three-run triple in the
nightcap. Dick Littlefleld stayed
the distance for his seventh vic
tory In the opener, A squeeze bunt
by slow Sid Gordon with two out In
the ninth brought home the decid
ing tally In the nightcap.
Cleveland won with ease over tho
Athletics as Mike Garcia registered
his 13th triumph on an elght-hltter.
The Yanks did It the hard way at
Detroit, coming from two runs be
hind on Gil McDougald's grand
slam" Home run in the eighth. Bob
Nlemi.il made It close with a pinch
homer In Detroit's half of the
eighth off Johnny Sain but the
bases were empty.
Virgil Trucks, still suffering with
a bad back, won his 16th of the1
season at the expense of the Sena-1
tors but It took a live run rally I
by his mates In the eighth to give
him the decision. Billy Pierce j
mopped up In the ninth. Nellie Fox I
led the ll-hit Chicago attack with'
a triple, double and two singles. I
ping Into the water here. If the
swim Is successful the check will
be upped to 110,000.
