PAGE 4 B HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON FRIDAY. JUNE 20. 1951 rr COUNTRY STILL SLAUGHTERING THEM The camera angle makes Country Slaughter look hit stature as a New York Yankee before doubleheader with Detroit in New York June 15. Slaughter, oldest player on the squad, is leading the team in hitting with .341 as a pinch hitter and utility outfielder. He got a single in two tries as the Yank ees were shut out 2-0 and 3-0 by the Tigers. AP Wirephoto 'Aging' Enos Earns His Pay NEW YORK (NEA)-Any mys- tery surrounding Enos Slaughter's ability, at 42, to be with the New York Yankees and hit home runs for them quickly dissolves with one look at him in action. He is probably the first Yankee m bed at night. Certainly, ties the first to get up. "I never breakfast much past 7:15 in the morning, hnos says As a pinch-hitter, Enos spends most of the- pre-game warm-up pitching catting practice. "Every time you see him on the field," Casey Stengel observes, that man is sweatin. Slaughter is one of baseball's best fast ball hitters, which has more than a little to do with it. "Most pitchers never use a curve on 3-1 and 3-2 pitches, teammate Eddie Ford says. "Enos always looks 'em over and gets a high count. So they put the fast ball in and that's his game. He hits a fast b' better than Mickey Mantle."

Rainouts Ruin ThursdaySlate Little League. Babe Ruth League, Klamath Basincttcs, Ban tam League and Pecwces all went the way of the weather Thursday- as the sodden skies practically made quagmires of all the ball diamonds in the area. The only Klamath Palls team to get a chance at action was the American Legion nine who jour neyed to Albany for a crack at the Albany juniors. Little League contests scheduled for Wright Field Thursday had in cluded Johns-Manville vs. Hal's and Weyerhaeuser-Don's against Car-Ad-Co. Both games will be made up at a later date. Babe Ruthers were set for a twinbill at Gem Stadium: Hcnlev Sporting Goods vs. Merrill and Balsigers vs. Malin. These will be added to an already long list of games to be made up. The Basincttcs. Klamath wom en's Softball team, had scheduled lis final workout at Conger. Thursday prior to their opener Saturday night against the Reno Sierra Sports at Gem Stadium. They may try to squeeze in a practice session today. Both the Bantam and Peewce leagues, who play at Kiwanis Park, will play their originally scheduled contests at a time to be announced. Wednesday night, before the rain started, Pecwee League action saw Ellingson Lumber whip Klam ath Lumber and Box 9-1 and the Plumbers and Fillers literally blasted Cub Pack No. 77, 35-1, lo register the highest score noted in the Basin this year. Gary Bell's no-hitler for Mobile in 1957 was the Southern Assn.'s first hitless nine-inning game since 1951.

"Despite the general apathy to ward track and field in this coun try." said Ferris, who has run the AAU longer than he cares to re member, "we keep turning out in ternational champions. But do you know something, we're likely to be shut out in the mile in the greatest race at this distance in AO years, or as long as the AAU has been in existence. "If 1 had to handicap them. I'd put the Australians, Herb El liott and Merv Lincoln, one-two with Lazlo Tabori. the Hungarian. right behind. I'm afraid that there'll be four other foreigners in a field of 15 or more who can beat our guys." hlliott js the amazing 20-year-old Anzac who breaks 4 minutes like breaking sticks. In the Compton Relays just the other day, he beat Ron Delany by 35 yards. It was the first defeat in quite a spell lor the Olympic 1,500-meter record holder and indoor champion. The ultra-conservative Ferris wouldn't be at all surprised to see (wo or three world records estab lished in the two nights of compe tition in the oil town that is Ba- kersfield in the lower end of the San Joaquin Valley, where the temperature still reads 95 degrees under the arcs. The Bakersiield Junior College track is as fast as the California horse strips. The accepted world record for Ihe mile is 3:58 with Britisher Derek lbbotson's 3:57.2 up for ap proval. Lincoln, who has bested 4, is the defending champion. Tab ori, running well again, was see Teenager Hurrying Toward Return To Major Leagues WENATCHEE (AP) Claude Osteon is only IB years old but he s in a hurry to return to the major leagues. Ostcen, lelt-handed rookie pitch er from Reading, Ohio, is the main reason why the youthful Wcnatchce Chiefs have clung to their second-place perch through the Northwest League's first-half pennant, drive. He has almost personally ac counted for in of the Chiefs' wins with tremendous pitching. While carving out a 10-2 record during the first eight weeks of the cam paign, Osteen whiffed the batters at a rate of belter than one per inning 123 whills in 108 frames. By maintaining this pace. Osteen could easily surpass the NWL strikeout record of 212, set by Jerry Cade of Salem in lltab. Currently, Osteen is ahead of Ihe strikeout pace established by Jim Bailey last year. Bailey, who was with Wenatchee only half of last season, fanned 140 batters in 131 innings. Like Osteen. both Bailey and Cade are left-handers owned by the Cincinnati Redlegs. It was only a little over a year ago that Osteen broke into base ball wilh the team he had always idolized Cincinnati. His home town of reading is a suburb el Cincinnati. Signed with a bonus reported to he around 140,000. Osteen an peared twice in relief for the Red legs last season heforc being as signed lo Nashville of the South ern Association. He made only seven nncl pitching appearances I here and was optioned to Class B Wenatchee this year. Ostcen, a IBS-p o u n d e r who .Mantis 5-11, sorely misses the ma jor league atmosphere to which he became accustomed last year. NEWS FOR YOU! ST RMlfa 1 .M THIStSPRICE v ' .

Yugoslav Valise Mu gosa and Canada's Norman Lloyd. Hodgeson. attending Oklahoma, has a definite program calculated to smash the world record. Hen derson of Arizona State ran this year's swiftest college mile. 4:03.1. Mugosa, who competed in this country throughout the past indoor season, will matriculate at New York University next fall. Lloyd has done 4:05. As lor United States entrants in this tremendous scramble, J 1 m Grelle of Oregon is credited with 4:06. California's Don Bowden, Ihe only American to beat 4, may confine his energy to the half mile. The sprints will be equally ex citing with Bobby Morrow, the Olympic champion: San Jose State's Ray Norton, who has equalled the world mark, 9.3, in the 100; Duke's Dave Sime, pro vided his pulled muscle has healed: and Ira Murchison and California's Willie White. Glenn Davis of Ohio State and Texas' Eddie Southern have a wide selection of events, but it would be great to see . this pair, who ran one-two in the 400-meter hurdles in Melbourne, hook up. Davis holds the world record in the 440-yard hurdles, equalled it at the same distance on the flat. South ern ran the quarter in 45.9 this spring. Parry O'Brien is knocking at the door of his own mark in the shot- put, 63-3. And Dallas Long, a phe nomenal Phoenix schoolboy, has put Ihe ball farther than anyone but the champion 61 and change. The National AAU Outdoor But, unlike a lot of high-salaried bonus players, he has made a splendid adjustment to his tale of playing in the bush leagues. Aller losing a 5-2 decision in his lirst starting assignment, Osteen proceeded to hang-up seven straight victories before dropping a 3-1 verdict. In 11 starts this sea son, Osteen has been relieved on ly once. That was in the ninth in ning with two outs. The slim southpaw also came within one strikeout of tying the league's single-game record for whiffs when he fanned 18 Salem batters in his second start of the season. The record of 19 was set last year by Yakima's Jim Hemric. Osteen notched his 18th strikeout in the eighth inning and still had a golden opportunity lor the rec ord. But Salem went down in or der by other routes in the ninth. Although sporting a 2.33 earned- run average, Osteen has yet to pitch a shutout. On his best nights, he has been plagued by sieges of bad luck which ruined his shutout bids. For instance, when Osteen pitched his 10th win a neat four hitter he walked one batter, but that man scored the opponents lone run. It came when a routine pop fly was lost in the early- evening dusk. "Oh well, it's gotta come sooner or later," the Tennessee-born left nander drawled in his easygoing manner. He still carries some of that ma jor league "atmosphere" wilh him, as the Chiefs are wearing the uniform of last year's nedlegs. In (act, Ostcen is wearing the road uniform and "No. 6" of his former Cincinnati "roomie" catcher Ed Bailey, another talented Tennes scan.

But now that he's firmly en trenched as Ohio State's eighth head basketball coach, a word can be said in behalf of his confidence. Taylor quietly wooed Jerrv Lucas of .Middletown. Ohio. High lor three seasons. Others did it a bit more boisterously, but certain ly not as effectively. Taylor makes no claims to landing the country's prize schoolboy eager for Ohio State. But through the long court ship, in which he was vitally in strumental, he never waivered. "When I shake that big boy's hand, something just keeps telling me he likes Ohio State," Taylor said a year ago. He repeated it on numerous occasions since. All winter, Ihe report was mak ing the rounds that Coach Paul Walker of Middletown would take Lucas wherever he went, Tay lor's password remained, 'Don't count us out." Everybody else figured Ohio State didn't have the chance of a blind man in Las Vegas at landing Lucas. Then last March 26, a rel atively quiet Wednesday in the Ohio State athletic department, Taylor and his predecessor, Floyd Stahl, engaged in general conver sation. ' Lucas is coming here." Taylor said matter-of-factly, though his voice quivered a mite. But don t put that in the paper. We put it on our calendar and looked it up a couple of weeks ago while Tay lor was in the thick of the race for Stahl's vacated post. "Great Scott, don't use that now," he implored. People will think I'm a loud-mouthed cam paigner." Taylor credits a number of busi ness men for pointing up Ohio State's educational advantages to young Lucas. Be that as it may-, Fred Taylor's soft salesmanship approach and pleasant personality did nothing to discourage large Jerry. Fred Taylor will sell many an other before he's through. He can mix it with the best and suit his temperament to the occasion. Fiohts By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS COUNCIL BLUFFS. Iowa Bcnnv Davis. 13). Minneannlic stopped Joe Parks, Omaha, 69. CHARLEROI, La.

Only one medalist, from the Peewee division, was around for the linal day. Biff Lovett.

Opposing him in the 36-hole final is David Mun ro, also Portland, who downed Jerry Forrester, Portland, 3 and 2. But in the boys' division, a 5 and 4 victory by Mike Monroe of Med ford over Fred Taylor of Portland was no more impressive than the strong back nine play of Lynn Yturri of Ontario who won 4 and 2 over John Hedlund of Oswego.
