Credited with the victory for the Techmen, and promptly dubbed 'Iron Man by his mates, was i pitcher Leroy Rausch, who trav i eled the distance for the Mile ' High club, allowing 13 hits, walk 's ing three and fanning only one Haider. Rausch aided his own ' cause with a pair of pickoff plays i that stalled threatening t,U(J base 's runners. Behind him the Owls com- ) mi'.Ud three miscucs but made V up for the wrongs with a pair of double plays. The loser, ex-Pelican Dave -, D'Olivo, entered the ball game in ', the eighth as relief for starter j Tom Speeiman who hogtied the ;. Owls in the first three stanzas with IF straight pitches then fad i ed, allowing three consecutive base knocks in the fourth and load 4 ing the sacks in the eighth. Three i of the Owl scores were charged 1 to Speeiman. In his relief role '; D'Olivo gave up two hits, walked , two and hit two Owl batters. ' Joining Winters and Ehrman trout m the two-hit category for the Owls were Jim Cox, third base, and Ron Downie, second sacker. The big bat for the Raiders was catcher Jim McAbee who collected three singles.

J O'Malley immediately expressed the hope that with "hustle" the ? club could get started on the 55.- i ooo-seat radium in time to have It ready for opening day next 5 vear. But O'Malley would not say if he intended to start work even ' while an appeal to the VS.

Musial Ruins Young Cub's No-No Effort CHICAGO (API "He hit my beet pitch, it was no lollipop. With that, young Glen Hobble of the Chicago Cubs managed one of those far-away smiles. The kind that indicates what might have been if . . . Hobbie, who'll be 23 Friday, pitched a one-hit, 1-0 victory over St. Louis Tuesday in wind-blown, frozen Wngley Field. He had a perfect game until there was one out rn the seventh. But up stepped Stan (The Spoiler) Musial. A moment later, Hobbie's no-hitter was no more. Musial sla'mmed an outside curve past third base and into left field for a double. Hobbie was still faced with the task of winning the game when Musial came up in the ninth. There were men on first and sec ond on a walk and a hit batsman with two out. Cub Manager Bob Scheffing went to the mound. So did catcher Sam Taylor who had driven in the only run with a single in the sec ond inning. After a few gestures, bchelting went back to the dugout. Taylor went back to catch. Hobbie pitched, Musial swung on a fast ball and bounced to the pitcher to end the game. Had Scheffing told Hobbie how to pitch to Musial? "Heck no," said the Cub man ager. "I've been in this league for 17 years and still don't know how to pitch to Musial. I just wanted to make sure Glen wasn't mad at himself." As for Musial, who is experienc ing a not unusual early season slump, it was the second time in the last three games that he had saved the Cardinals from becom ing no-hit victims. Against San Francisco last Sat urday he came off the bench in the seventh to hit a pinch single and spoil Jack Sanford s bid for a no-hittcr. Did Musial have any feelings about breaking up two no-hitters within a few days? ."No," said the great veteran in a matter-of-fact tone. "A lot can happen in the last two innings gle in the sixth and then scored himself as rightfielder Phil Sword blasted a double. Sword also col lected a single and a sacrifice in five trips, accounting for two RBIs. Maurer notched one RBI and Speeiman. who hit two for three, added the other. The Owls, blanked in the first three Irames, counted one in the fourth off a single by Ehrman trout scoring Cox, then failed to mark the board until the eighth Cox started the Owl comeback with a single, left fielder Stan Glass walked, as did Ehrmantrout. Cox and Glass scored when Winters got his first hit off the slants of D Olivo. Despite the fact that the Raid ers garnered a hit in each of tAe last three stanzas and were grant ed three walks they couldn't bunch the action to count a run The next test for the Owls comes on the weekend when they host the OCE Wolves at Gem in a -single test Friday afternoon followed by a twmbill on Saturday. All three games count in Oregon Collegiate conference standing! The East defeated the West. 113-104. in the first National In dustrial Basketball League all star game in 1958. Furillo Makes Demand Of Bums LOS ANGELES (UPII Outfield er Carl Furillo, one of the players most closely identified with past Dodger glory, demanded today he be allowed to play more regularly or be traded to another club. "I'm no good to the team on the bench or to myself, said Furillo. who has a .300 batting mark for 13 major league seasons. He hit .290 last year and led the club in runs batted in with 83, but has appeared in only five games this year. United Press International Frank Lane does a lot of shout ing for the Cleveland Indians but even he s drowned out by the thunder of the Tribe's booming offense. And you'll have to excuse Man ager Joe Gordon, the ex-Yankee great, if he's confused because nobody told him his Indians would remind him of the old "Murderer's Row" teams for which he played. For that's exactly what they're doing with seven victories in eight (,ames and a whopping average of 6.6 runs scored per game. Redskins 14, Tigers 1 The Indians piled up their big gest score of the season Tuesday ght when they crusne me De troit Tigers, 14-1, and retained a two-game grip on first place in the American League.

The Milwaukee Braves made it five wins in six decisions with a 7-4 victory over the Cincinnati Reds, Glen Hobbie inched a one-hitter as the Chi cago Cubs topped the St. Louis Cardinals, 1-0, and Don Demeter's three two-run homers gave the Los Angeles Dodgers an U-inning 7 win over the han rrancisco iants in National League games.
