Sherwood came from behind in the seventh inning to win the Class A-2 crown 6-5 over Suther lin and Adrian won 5-4 to gain the Class B title in an encounter with Gaston in oiher games of the tnpleheader. Jefferson glided into a four-run lead in the third inning when f reeland laced his big blow with three aboard deep into right cen ter field at Multnomah Stadium. the home of the Pacific Coast League Portland Beavers. Walker's powerful swat in the fifth inning with two aboard went even further. It cleared the fence at the 325-foot mark. His blow was only the second by a prep player to clear the wall of the park. The first was last year by Bill Lukens ot Monmouth Independence. Sherwood hurler Jim Regan stayed on the mound all the way to gain credit for the victory as lis ircmt diacu uumuuiii Terry Hite, Jerry Richwine and Ron Kirkpatrick supplied the bat ting power for the Class A-2 champions with three hits each, to account for all nine chalked up by Sherwood. The tying and winning runs of the rally came on a single by Kirkpatrick. It followed Hite's walk and a double by Kichwine After the same three gave Sher wood a 2-0 lead in the second inning, Sutherlin bounced back in the same frame to tie the score Sutherlin's Don Ralls belted a stand-up triple. Laddie Crippen walked and stole second. Then a passed ball allowed Ralls to score end Larry McCord singled home Crippen. Sherwood added singles in the fourth and fifth, but Sutherlin scored three times in the sixth on two walks, two errors and two hits for the lead, which Sherwood topped in the seventh. Adrian's victory over Gaston, the game that opened the cham pionship triple - header, was a re peat performance. Last year Adrian won over Gaston for the Class B crown 12-2. Adrian was out front 4-0 by the fourth inning. The runs, one in the first and second innings and two in the fourth, all were unearned. After Gaston came back with two runs in the fifth and sixth Innings to tie the score. Adrian connected for three solid hits in the seventh to bring' in what proved the winning run. Stan Mills, who singled, came home as Henry Mendazona hit safely to left center. Phil Hatch hurled four-hit ball Splinter Shakes Rumors CHICAGO (AP)-Ted Williams Boston's splendid splinter, isn't hitting his weight, but bury those rumors that he might quit base ball before the season is over. "Sure, I might have decided to call it quits now if I had had a bad season last year," said Wil liams Sunday before a double- header against the Chicago White Sox. "But t got olf to a bad start last year and won the batting championship, so why should 1 call it quits? Williams, always confident, ex pects to shake his present slump and eventually get up above the .300 mark. "I think I came back too soon after that trouble with my neck." raid Williams. "There were about 40 at bats that I shouldn't have had." So far. he hasn't been able to nntrack himself. He is batting a feeble .183. "So what." is Williams answer to his bad start. "On May 20th last year I was batting .224. By the time the All-Star game came around I was batting only .280. But I finished up okay." That he did. Williams ended the season with a .328 average to cap ture his sixth American League batting championship. Williams never has batted less than .317 since breaking into the big leagues in WW. "The way reporters come after me in every town you'd think 1 was batting .436." he said, laugh ing. "Say. do you think Hank Aaron (Milwaukee) can hit .400? I do." said Williams. "He's got i good start and that's what counts" Once again the conversation re turned to the possibility of retire ment. "There are a lot of factors to consider," said Williams. "Heck. It's no secret that I want to hit Son home runs." The man who batted .408 in 1M1 has a career tolal of 483 home runs, including one this year. Williams was walked his first dm up Sunday, struck out the second and grounded out to the first baseman his next three timet. He sat out the second game. lo gain credit for the victory.
