FRIDAY, AUGUST 13, 1954 HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FAIXS. OREGON PAGE NINE Maxim's Manager After Title Bout By JACK HAND (For Gayle Talbot) NEW YORK I Doc Kearns popped Into town with a new bank roll, cutting a wide swath down Broadway on the way to the tai lor's shop. An hour later he re turned to Jack Dempsey's to re port he had bought four new out fits. "Imagine the nerve of thai guy, at his age, expecting to wear out lour new outfits." said one of the mob. He looks like he'll make it too, dapper and spry as ever al though he must be over 70. A year or two back they carved away at his spare frame in a Chicago hos pital but he beat the rap. The good doctor has maneuvered himself into the camp of Rocky Castellani, who Is managed by a Cleveland contractor named Al Naiman. They say Naiman owns at least half of Lake Erie so he was prevailed upon to guarantee Bobo Olson $125,000 for a chance at his middleweight title. Kearns assisted in the arrangements and then helped promote the San Francisco show. He has done such a good Job that they talk of a sellout for next Friday's Cow Pal ace bout and Naiman is a sure thing to get off the hook. In his spare moments, Kearns Is making moves to get his Joey Maxim a fourth bout with Archie Moore for the light heavy title. In gay moment, Doc once told somebody Maxim punched harder thai Jack Dempsey. Now, Pal Joey can stick with the left, tie you up in close and spin you around but his punch Is a mild caress. Long ago Kearns patched up his feud with Dempsey. The color lul Manassa Mauler and the glib doctor now are good friends. It was In Dempsey's Broadway res taurant the other night that Kearns made one of his classic remarks. He was talking about the chances of a Maxim - Moore bout in Omaha. "Maxim always goes best west of the Rockies," he said, quickly shifting his eyes to see if the late watch was up on its geography. The next afternoon in Jim Norris' office, they were talking business on that Omaha venture. Somebody suggested this probably would be the first title fight ever held in Omaha. "Who thought of Omaha?" Norris was asked. "Doa stopped in there, hitchhik ing back from Las Vegas," said Jim with a grin. It was a good gag because Kearns has a special soft spot in his heart for Las Vegas, where the wheels spin and the action Is live ly. A couple of years back he was talking of a "fight to the finish" in Las Vegas between Pal Joey and Archie the Gypsy. The last man Maxim "finished" was Sugar Ray Robinson in a heat wave but let's not go into that. The Doc almost met himself working both sides of the street Pro-Amateur Lead Held By Oregon Golfers EUGENE, Ore. W Two Ore gon golfers held a two-stroke lead Friday going into the second round of the Pacific Northwest Pro-Amateur championships at the Eugene Country club. Amateur Don Kricger of Eu gene carded a 65 on the par-72 course, low for the day, to give the team of Krieger and Harvey Bunn of Redmond a total of 63. Bob McKendrick. Oswego, Ore., professional, and Ad Huyke. Port land, amateur, were next with a team score of 63.

Baltimore Signs Ex-Seattle. Star BALTIMORE W Joe Pehanick, Seattle University giant who was the Baltimore Bullets 7th draft choice, was signed to a National Basketball Association contract Thursday by owner-coach Clair Bee. The 6-foot-9 Pehanick, whose home is Scranton. Pa., averaged 20.4 points last season after two years of being overshadowed by Seattle's celebrated O'Brien twins. He netted 537 points in 28 games.

Kearns explained Uo dates would be different, noth ing was definite and what was the matter with trying to get in a plug for the Castellani-Olson bout. Sometime when they get asbes tos curtains for television sets, they ought to try the Doc Kearns story on "This is Your Life." Of course, you'd have to give the Doc a piece of the show.

In four games played a total of 100 base hits went into the record books. Top output was at Kennewiok where Vancouver and Tri-Clty went on a 38 hit binge In a game won by the Capilanos, 16-9. Van couver batsmen had 24 of those and Tri-Clty 14. - Lewiston connected lor 13 sale- ties and Wenatchee nine as the league-leaders defeated the Chiefs for the fifth straight time, 7-2, in their game at Lewiston. A total of 21 base hits was regis tered at Salem where Yakima thumped the Senators, 14-6. and Edmonton defeated the league All Stars, 11-3, in a game which pro duced 10 safe blows at Edmonton. The best pitching job was turned in bv Edmonton's Ray McNulty, who allowed seven scattered hits in going the, route against the All- Stars. ' The wins by Lewiston and Van couver were the eighth straight for each team and failed to change the league-standings. The Broncs, who are rolling along at a phe- nomenal -.732 clip, still lead the Cans bv 6V4 games. A slim crowd 01 B34 turned out to see the league-leaders paste Wenatchee for the fifth straight time. Lewlston scored four Tuns in the first two innings and was never headed, although Wenatchee closed the gap at 4-2 in the sixth when Larry Monroe was sale on a fielder's choice and Tom Munoz followed uo with a double and then was, singled home. The Broncs added single scores in tne sixtn and eighth frames. Vancouver's hitting spree ac counted for the Caps clean sweep of their series with Tri-Clty. The Vancouver attack included two home runs by Marv Williams, one In the second ' with two on ana another in the third with one on. and a bases-empty homer by K Chorlton in the fifth.

S2I Walnut ' Pease 7J7l JH - A - 1 Pennants To Play All-Stars Softball fans of the Klamath Ba sin will be treated to their second look at big league women's soft- ball next Thursday night. August 19, at Conger Field as the Port- land Pennant Shop meets the Klamath All-Stars. The Pennants, managed by Dot ty Moore, are comprised of many ex-Erv Llnd Florists ball players, hold wins over some of the teams that have whipped the famed world champion Florists, demonstrating how powerful Portland s number two girl's softball team can be. So far this season tne team noma a record of 12 wins and nine loses. including wins over the Salt Lake City girl's team, the Buena Park entry In the Far West Women's Soitball League, and the Canadian champions, the Crawnhorst British Columbia nine. The Dotty Moore team includes such standout stars as Dorrls Bar rett ace pitcher, who played in pro fessional as well as amateur soft- ball leagues. Another standout player for the Pennants Is Pat Carson, who played for the Chicago Queens, the same club as Bullet Betty Evans Gray son of the Florists, where she held a life time major league batting average of .333. The local team will probably be the same as Is entering the state tournament at Portland this week end, and coached by Bob Mathls. Mickey Hayman, who did an out standing Job against the Florists un til she began to tire, will undoum edly get the mound call for the all-stars. Buth Hagelsteln, Sherry Larson and Teddy Walker are three others who will probably make up the lo cal team of girl's softball stars that face the Pennants. Hardtops Run At Ashland This Saturday Klamath Falls hard top enthu siasts today received an Invitation from the Ashland Speedway to enter cars any Saturday night. Dick Scott of Klamath Falls, who Is handling promotion for the Ashland track during the sum mer months, explained that Rogue Valley hard topping Is now on a "twin" -basis, with both Medford and Ashland tracks offering hard top programs on Saturday night. He explained that both tracks ofler top programs but that a dif ference in rules separates one from another. The Ashland track sanctioned by the Ashland Stock Car Association, has rules of "straight stock" cars and allows one driver to spin out another if nncessary to gain an advantage on a curve. The result has been the moat, spectacular driving in the history of the track. Both the field of cars and the crowds have grown every week since the new deal went Into effect.

Hopes for a third consecutive Pacific Coast League pennant for the Stars are fading and Frank (Lefty) O'Doul's San Diego Padres have moved to within 1 ',2 games ot first place. The Carlos Bernier Incident of Wednesday night, when the speedy Hollywood outfielder hit an um pire and was banned for the rest of the season, seemed to have up set the confidence of the high rid ing Stars. They blew up like bustl ers in the 10th Inning against San Diego Thursday night and a 2-2 ball game wound up In an 8-3 San Diego victory. It was the third straight for the Padres, and the fourth straight loss for Hollywood, which has scored only seven runs in the last 37 innings. O'Doul has found a weak spot in the defensive armor of left hand pitcher Roger Bowman. In the 10th inning Thursday night, with a man on first and none down, two suc cessive bunts produced two hits and filled the bases, all because Bowman, who is oil balance when he completed his pitch, was late getting the ball and late making his throw. Manager Bobby Bragan replaced Bowman with Jim Walsh and later had to replace Walsh with George O'Donnell, but both looked alike to the Padres, who had a big, six-run Inning. The game at Cilmore Field drew 11.275 .fans, the largest crowd of the season there. Bob Alexander of Portland pitched a two-hitter as he blanked I os Angeles In the first game of a twin bill, 44. The Angels won a homer-filled second game, 6-3. Alexander's sensational per formance snapped an .eight-game losing streak for the Forts. He fanned 11 batters Including eight of the first nine to face him. The Beavers opened the night cap scoring on a solo lour bagger by Eddie Basklnskl and another with a mate aboard by Walt Jud nich. In the second inning, Vince Ma rasco of Los Angeles walked and came in on Al Evans' home run.' The Angels added two more in the fourth, one on Fred Richards' round tripped.
