Purkey pitched a dandy last night, blanking second-place San Francisco for the second time this season, 4-fl, and extending his scoreless jinx over the Giants to 42 innings since May 7. 1955. But pitchers more than likely will recall their hitting over any thing short of a no-hitter, and Burdette built a memory that's a beaut, driving in five runs with a pair of homers, one a grand slam, as Milwaukee beat Los Angeles 8-4. Burdette now has a total of four homers in the majors, both in pairs tying Don Newcombe for the National League record for most times hitting two in a game by pitchers. While Burdette and Purkey were combining to put Milwaukee 1'4 games ahead of San Francisco in the race, the Philadelphia Phillies skipped past St. Louis into third place by whipping the Cardinals 13-3. The Chicago Cubs beat Pitts burgh 8-7. In the American League, the Yankees beat Cleveland 7-4 and 4-3 in a day-night double-header Boston ripped the Chicago White Sox 11-2 and took second place as Baltimore dropped Kansas City fi-3 and 3-2 in a twi-night pair.

Fact of the matter that is the purpose of like programs the world over. The above statement will ob- I viously come as a shock to some adults. ; Everyone knows thai grownups need a place to blow off pent-up steam, aggravations, and the like, accumulated over a tough day at the office, plant or wherever. . . . The discussion arises, now, as to the place where, and the manner in which they give vent to this release. The 'ball game, for decades. has been the ideal spot . . . and no one wants to change that. The right to root for the 'Home Team is here to stay. Many more thoughtful adults feel, as I do, though, that incen tive and insult heaped on ball pfayers and umpires ranging in age from a to 15 years can t real ly he a very satisfactory outlet for this emotion (or whatever one would like to call it). It has been proven that It is nf no benefit to the kids . . . and it also has been proven that it just makes a lot of other adults mad. GP Golfer Wins State PGA Crown REDMOND (AP) The new Oreson Professional Golf Assn. match play champion is Walter "Boots" Porterfield, 31, Grants Pass, who four years , ago won the Wisconsin Open. He downed Bob Gasper, Cottage Grove. 7 and 5, in the tinal of the annual OPGA tournament here Thursday. Porterfield. playing soundly and steadily, cashed in on poor chip ping and putting by Gasper to t-ike a six-up lead at the end of the first nine holes. He was cicht up after the 21st Gasper came back to take the 22nd and 24th holes. After the golfers had halved the 26th and 27th holes with birdies Porterfield added birdies on the 30th and 31st to end the 6-hoiir contest, which was played in bove-90-degree temperatures. "I'm tired." said Porterfield "This is the toughest grind I have ever faced." The new champion said time he spent as a touring prolessionai helned him. "You learn on the tour," he said, "not to worry if you waste or make a bad shot. Neither was a problem for him Thursday, anyway. The victory was worth $360 to Porterfield. Gasper collected $240. Gallant Man Heavy Pick For Turf Cup INGLEWOOD, Calif., OJPI) - Gallant Man today lolled in his barn at Hollywood Park while racing fans virtually conceded him Saturday's $162,100 Hollywood bom tup. ihe little thoroughbred, one of the nation's top contenders for Horse of the Year honors, headed a small field of five horses named for the mile and a quarter race which guarantees the winner $100,000 net. Despite his top impost of 130 pounds and the fact that he spots his opponents from 12 to 22 pounds. Gallant Man was expect ed to be a prohibitive choice. Facing him will be such sea soned campaigners as Eddie Schmidt, 110, Seaneen. 118, Mys tic Eye. 108 and Swirling Abbey 108. But Gallant Man goes into the race off his victory over Bold Ruler in the Metropolitan Handi cap at Belmont, having been flown here following that race. The little 980-pound, English bred colt is no stranger to Holly wood Park, for it was here that he scored his maiden victory two years ago at a $119.30 price. The four-year-old star had his final tune-up Thursday for the Gold Cup and displayed a sizzling turn of speed as he worked five furlongs in 59 2-5 seconds with exercise boy Ronnie Zangari aboard.

The legion team has won five of its last seven games. Going into the weekend's play, Grants Pass is one-half game ahead of Klamath after beating Medford Thursday night.

NEW YORK 'APi-The mys-1 crv of the wholesale serving ol subpoenas Ihe night of the Virgil Akins - Isaac Logart fight last March 21 has been solved with Ihe indictment of boxing mnlchmak er Jimmy White. The 51-yearold New orkcr was named yesterday by a grand jury on charges of conspiracy to fix the bout in question, end act ing as an "undercover manager" (or Logart. He pleaded innocent and was released on $2,500 bail. The jury also linked Herman llymie the Mink) Wallman in the ndictment as a coconspirator but not as a defendant . Last week. n an indictment returned against boxing judge Bert Grant. Wallman also was named as a coconspir ator. Ironically, the fix attempt on Ihe Akins-Isaac bout failed to come off. The conspiracy count accused White and Wallman of ac ting in concert in planning to bribe certain officials, one of whom was expected to be Grant. However, Dist. Atty. Frank S. Ho gan's office said none of those ex pected to be named officials was assigned lo the fight and no bribe overture was made lo the old cials who did serve. Akins, far behind, rallied to knock out Logart in the sixth round of their welterweight elim ination bout. Akins then knocked out Vinre Martinez in St. Louis June 6 to win the vacant welter crown. The charge that White was an undercover manager for Logart in the Akins fight is based on the state law banning such affiliation. To add to Wallman's woes, the New York State Athletic Commis sion yesterday refused to accept his licenses as manager and sec ond which he had surrended by mail, and ruled the chargej against him in Ihe Grant case would he heard July 17.
