Their big li hit win over the league's "winningest pitcher. Ron Curtis, not only boosted the Kubs out of the basement but it scram bled the league race to the point that all six clubs are either in first or second place. Kub pitcher Bob Lawery's seven-hit conquest of the Merchants gives the improving local semi-pro 'nine a 1-2 Nor-Cal league record. Bolstered by the addition of catcher Bob Kelly and second sac- ker Butch Dollar to their lineup, the Kubs hit safely in every inning but the second. Kelly singled in the fourth to score Floyd Under man and give the Kubs a 1-0 bulge, while Dollars, who rapped two-for-four. blasted a sharp sin gle in the seventh that scored third baseman Rube Johnson and Lin- dcrman to make it 4-0 of the Kubs.

Lindy Mc- ine Toppled At Bend BEND Three big hits, all dou bles, in the fifth inning and a tre mendous home run in the bottom of the seventh spelled double de feats for the Klamath Falls Amer ican Leeion here Sunday after noon: - me eena icgion nun-, u. state champs topped the Klamath first baseman Dean Dunton and Lawery: Dunson. however, was credited with a sacrifice. Topping the Merchant batters was catcher Marvin Cartwright who collected three singles in four trips and was the recipient of an intentional base on balls. His free trip to first came in the top of the fifth when the Dunsmuir nine threatened seriously. Leading off the inning. Curtis singled but was forced at second when shortstop Peder Anderson reached first on a fielder's choice. Another fielder's choice on second baseman-Gary Hisey caught An derson between second and third. Hisey reached third on a wild pitch and center fielder Jess Fid lor walked. With first and third filled Lawery passed Cartwright to get at Pratt who struckout to retire the side. The only other Dunsmuir hit; were collected by Anderson. Pratt and left fielder Lou Ayotte. The losing chucker, I urtis. was relieved with two away in t h e eighth after giving up a pair of singles which brought the potential dynamiter Johnson to the plate. His relief. Ray Smith, handled Johnson on a slow roller. Fourteen Dunsmuir base-runners died on the bases while the Kubs stranded 10.
