Russian sports fans heard quit a bit about Oregon
earlier this week as the Soviets clashed with the United
States touring track and field team in a two-day meet in
Moscow. . .
Although the Russians claimed a two-point scoring
and moral victory, they would have fared lots better if
four Oregonians hadn't turned in such outstanding work
for the United States team. i' -
Oregon sports fans were thrilled when the Beaver state was
represented by distance runners Bill Dellinger and Jim Grelle, de
cathlon star Dave Edstrom and woman shot putter Sharon Shepherd.
And these four turned in brilliant showings in the meet to prove their
selections rightful.
Miss Shepherd, remembered by
Klamath Falls Softball followers as
the speed-balling pitcher who led
Oakridge-Westfir to second place in
the two state women's softball
tournament held at Gem Stadium
a few years back, placed a strong
fourth in the women's shot' put
event. Sharon, who calls Mapleton
tier home, tossed the iron ball 44
feet 9 3-8 inches.
Grelle, University of Oregon mil
,er, scored a surprise victory for
the American team in the 1.500 me
ter run (the metric mile). His time
was three minutes, 46.7 seconds.
Grelle is a Portlander who still has
another year of eligibility left at
Kttie Eugene school.
' Dellinger, former NCAA mile
champion from the University of
Oregon, lost a heartbreaker to Rus
sia's Hubert Pyarankivi in a near
dead heat in the 5,000 meet run.
Dellinger and his Russian foe were
both credited with times of 14:28.4,
but the officials nod gave first
place honors to the Soviet distance
star. Dellinger wasn't rated a close
second to the Red great.
Edstrom, just a sophomore this
past year at Oregon, is probably
one of the state's greatest track
prospects ever. The Sherwood cin
der sensation does just about ev
erything there is in the sport and
does it so well he could eventually
become the world decathalon
champion. Dave finished third to
Rater Johnson, the U.S.'s greatest
and Vasily Kuznetsov, Russia's
finest.
Edstrom rolled up 7,397 points as
he won the 110-meter hurdles and
the 1,500 meter run in the 10-event
maralhon. Johnson set a new
I world's decathalon record with his
winning total of 8,302 points. Kuz-
i netsov rolled up 7,897, a mere 500
more points than the young Sher-
. wood star from the university ot
Oregon.
The Soviets are planning to re
turn the meet with the United
States team in Philadelphia in
; July of 1959. From the showings
made by the above Oregonians, it
would be nice to hold another such
meet at Eugene's Hayward Field.
Oregon track coach Bill Bower-
" man would shudder to think of the
work such a meet would entail.
but would love to be the director
. of such a classic.
Harry Gllckman, president of
Oregon Sports Attractions in Port
land, said this past week that a
great deal of interest has been

SAM BAKER
, in Portland exhibition
turned in many great moments for
Corvallis high and Oregon State
College football fans.
These two, along with other top
names in the pro lootball ranks
will be seeing action August 23 be-
lore Portland fans.
Baker holds a flock of offensive
records set in the first Shrine all
star game in the stadium. In the
1948 game, Sam ran wild on the
Multnomah turf in leading the
state stars to a 35-14 win. He was
named the game's outstanding
player. James is also a Shrine
game alumni, playing in the 19o3
game when the state team won
12-6.
Oregon Tech football coach Rex
Hunsaker thought he had seen the
last of Portland State College's
rough and rugged fullback Chuck
Withers, who won himself all-conference
honors and rolled up a to
tal of 1,056 yards in three years
at PSC.
Withers completed his playing
days last year at Portland State,
but the school announced recently
that Chuck has been named to the
Vikings iootball coaching staff to
work with the backfield under head
coach Les Leggett.
Portland State is Oregon Tech's
Oregon Collegiate Conference
opener this year. The two clubs
meet at Modoc Field October 4,
the second home date of the
schedule for the Owls. Tech opens
its home schedule against Hamil
ton Air Base September 20.
When the New York football Gi
ants opened their training camp
at Salem Monday, a rookie who had
seen lots of Oregon football got
his first look at the state.
Don Sutherlin, who kicked the
field goal that gave Ohio' State a
10-7 win in last New Year's Day
Rose Bowl game over Oregon, was
among the rookies who reported to
the Giants camp. Sutherlin's kick
prevented the highly favored Buck
eyes of the Big Ten from being
held to a 7-7 draw, which would
have been humiliating.
Reports from Salem indicate the
former Ohio State end and place
kicker could stick with the Giants.

Southeast
Sweeps 11-4
By WAYNE SCOTT
Herald and News Sportswriler
PORTLAND - The Klamath
County AU-Stars, who had earned
the name "Cinderella" team, saw
their Oregon State Babe Ruth
Championship carriage turn into a
pumpkin a little before 12 o'clock
as they became the runnerup by
virtue of an 11-4 defeat at the
hands of the Southeast Nationals
on Portland's Lents Field Tues
day night.
The victory won the Southeast
team, the right to represent Ore
gon as state champion in the com
ing Babe Ruth Regionals to be
held here starting August 6.
Ihe County Stars had to be con
tent with a plaque for the District
I championship and second place
honors in, the state. Klamath Falls
will be represented in the Region
als by the American League All
Stars, who will serve as host team.

American
Athletes
In Poland
WARSAW (AP) There were
more signs and billboards in War
saw today advertising the visit of
65 American athletes than there
are signs on communism.
The Americans arrive today
from Moscow. They will race
against Poland in track and field
Friday and Saturday.
In Moscow, the American men
defeated Soviet men, Soviet wom
en defeated American women and
Soviet athletes, as a whole, won
the meet 172-170.
Polish sports officials say they
don't expect their men and women
to beat the United States, but that
the meeting should be a great oc
casion. In European track and field.
Poland probably ranks second to
the Soviet Union. In several events
Poland is better than the Soviet
Union.
In short and middle distance
running events, the Poles are
considerably behind the Americans
but ahead of the Soviets. Soviet
women are stronger than the
Polish girls, and the U.S.-Polish
women's scoring should be very
close.
Before leaving Moscow, Coach
George Eastment of the American
men s team expressed an optimis
tic viewpoint about American
prospects in the distance events.
"I believe we will be exception
ally strong by the 1960 Olympics
in Rome," he said. "We should
place two among the first six at
1,500 meters. By 1964 "we should
have one among the first six in
the 5.000 meters. We could sur
prise in the steeplechase any time
because our runners have been
training enthusiastically for the
event since Horace Ashenfelter
popularized it by winning in the
1952 Olympics at Helsinki.
I am certain we are coming
along very solidly in the 5,000
meters. We have improved great
ly in the 10,000 meters also, but
have a long way to go in devel
opment." German Pug,

play and upsetting the powerful
Mid-Portland in the second.
In the championship test the
County team got off to a 4-2 lead
in the first two innings which they
managed to hold until the top nl
the sixth when the hitting strength
of the Southeast nine combined
with a fading on Ihe part of County
starting hurler Dennis Salvador!
to let the Portlanders take com
mand with an 8-4 count.
The top of seventh saw the SE
club pick up three more tallies
as reliefers Chuck Cossey and
Rick Carleton gave up a pair of
walks and a single which were
added to a pair of County miscues
to clinch the affair.
The winning pitcher, Jim War
ren, a tall righthander, came into
the game in the third stanza after
starter Gary Sanders had walked
eight men and issued the only two
kF hits which accounted for the
County scores.
Warren, in finishing up the third
and going the rest of the way.
gave up no hits, struck out eight
Klamath players, walked only one
and struck one batter. His team
mates committed only two errors,
both in the first frame.
On the Klamath side of the
pitching ledger, the loser, Salva
dori walked four, fanned eight,
and was reached for four hits. Cos
sey issued two walks, two hits and
whiffed two. Carleton faced only
one batter, who got a hit. The
County squad committed five er
rors.
Leading the hitters was South
east second baseman Sonny Payne
who collected two singles in three
trips, although he was outshone by
centerfielder Steve Coon who poled
a triple in the disastrous sixth.
The only other extra base rap of
the game was a double by first
sacker Dwight Daniels. Clint
Fitzhugh and Bill Felix added sin-,
gles to the Southeast cause while
the Klamath hits were singles by
Salvadori and Wilson.
Salvadori fanned the leadoff
man and the cleanup hitter in the
top of the first and allowed Payne
his first hit. Payne died on the
sacks.
In the KF half of the inning eight
straight balls off Sanders put
Bucky Wilson and Don Willey on
base. Each scored as Sanders
walked two more and his mates
made a pair of mistakes.
Southeast evened the count in
Ihe top of the second as Daniels
double coupled with an error and a
free pass brought in two runs.
Daniels attempt to score . on
squeeze was nipped in the bud as
County , c a t c h e c Dean Haskins
nailed him at the plate:
In the last of the second, Klam
ath ' Collected two more markers
as Willey was granted another
walk-followed by Wilson's single.
Again the pair scored, this time
on Salvadori's single.
. Tle third, fourth and . fifth In
nings were relatively uneventful as
the game seemingly resolved itself
into a pitcher s duel, with War
ren getting a slight edge.
The explosion came in the first
of the sixth canto as Salvadori,
obviously weakening, walked four
men and gave up a hit to set the
stage for the six run barrage.
Coming in with the bases loaded,
Cossey was rapped for a single
and the screaming triple to left
center by Coon, before retiring the
side.
Klamath couldn't scratch in the
last of the sixth as Warren fanned
Willey and Bob Mobley and forced
Wilson to pop up to second base.
The three Southeast insurance
runs came in the seventh after
two were out. Cossey walked two
men and Wilson committed a field
ing error and a throwing miscue
on the same play. Felix blasted
one past Bruce Brickner on first
and the damage was done.
In the last of the seventh a
faint glimmer of hope showed
through as Salvadori, who had
been shifted to third after his
stint on the hill, got aboard with
a walk. A slow roller down the
first baseline resulted in Dean
Haskins being called out for inter
fering with the pitcher's attempt
to field the ball. When the argu
ment died down Norman Jackson
was handed a free pass but both
Salvadori and Jackson died on
base as Larry Peters struck out
and Brickner grounded out to the
pitcher.

the incredible San Francisco Gi

The Dodgers victory was their

Only the other day, a Boston
writer charged in a magazine arti
cle, that led Williams was a dis
mal failure as a clutch hitter.
The jnk had hardly dried last
night when the Boston Red Sox
slugger retorted in typical Wil
liams manner with one o( the
greatest clutch performances in
his career.
He hit a grand slam homer In
the third inning after Detroit had
taken a 4-0 lead. He singled in a
three-run seventh after Detroit
had knotted a 5-5 count. And he
homered again, with two mates
aboard in the 11th, after the Ti
gers had come from behind a sec
ond time to draw even 8-8.
The last blow, Williams' 17th of
the season and 473rd of his
reer, gave the Red Sox an 11-8
triumph. Ted's first homer was
hie 17th lifetime grand slammer,
tying him with Babe Ruth for sec
ond place, behind Lou Gehrig, who
accumulated 23.
Boston's victory reduced New
