' It was the second "near-miss" (tab at a no-hitter this season by Jones, now 9-8 who had to settle for , the first one-hitter of his career while the Giants closed ' within a half-game of the National '. League lead. J 'Jome of the 59,312 fans in the ! Los' Angeles Coliseum booed the scorer's decision on the bouncing I ball, which cleared Jones' head ; and rolled toward second base f Shortstop Andre Rodgcrs picked ; it up, then .dropped it.

The Kubs, 2-3 for league play, are looking for vengeance for a defeat handed them in the, first loop tilt of the season by the In dians In Yreka. Last Sunday at Gem the Kubs blew a 9-4 fourth inning lead to tumble 14-12 to the Mount Shasta Seals. "They aren't beating us we are beating ourselves.

Cincinnati left nothing to the imagination while whipping first place Milwaukee 85 on three home runs. Pittsburgh defeated Philadelphia 4-3. and St. Louis beat Chicago's Cubs 4-1. In the American League, Cleve land took a two-game lead by de feating second-place Chicago 3-1. New York beat third-place Balti more and Hoyt Wilhelm 4-1, keep ing a fourth-place tie with the De troit Tigers, who rapped Kansas City 4-0. Washington defeated Bos ton 6-1. The Dodgers, third, 1'4 games back with their second loss in a row after winning seven straight, put five men on base. Three times the runner was Gilliam, who got both of Jones' walks. The other runners made it on a fielder's choice and an error. Giants 2, Dodgers 0 Sad Sam retired 22 of the last 24 he faced, putting down 10 in a row before Gilliam walked in the sixth, then getting eight straight before the hit. Gilliam reached second In the eighth on a passed statistics, is hitting a .279 aver age. Outfielder Rube Johnson leads the pack with a. brilliant .632 while oufieldcr-pitcher Mike Dolan runs second with a .478. Whitt is next with a .444 while Ed Vegley, Butch Kimpton and Ford '9', ML J Win BR Tests Hits didn't mean a thing in Babe Ruth action in Gem Stadium Tuesday night as two teams that had little trouble at the bat suf fered when it came time for them to push runs home. Balsiger Motors capitalized on a couple of errors and a single in the last inning to top Henley Sport ing Goods 3-2, while M. L. John son, with only three hits, applaud ed nine Chiloquin errors to the tune of an 11-2 victory. Credited with the Ford win was hurlcr Marvin Davis who was buffeted for nine hits over the five inning route. His opponents, loser John Crumrine, gave up only two hits, struck out eight, and lashed what could have been the game winning single hut a base missed hy st runner and four er rors were the factors in his loss. In the top of the fifth, with the score 2-all, third packer Steve Reiling got aboard through an er ror, stole econd, and then reared for home when Crumrine hit a clean single. Roiling, in his hurry, however, failed to touch third and was called the' third out. Again in the top of the sixlh a Henley rally failed when Ken Quigley, who had singled, was nailed from center field by Ralph Williams who had hauled in a sharp single by Earl Allhritton. The Fordmen got their winning tally when first baseman Larry Rinney got aboard with a scratch single, then scored after advanc ing when Jim Floyd got on with an error John Lawsnn sacrificed them along and pitcher Davis popped a high fly back of the in field that was dropped by John Wright. Floyd's first inning triple was the big hit of the test. The linescorcs: R II E Chiloquin 1(0 00 2 7 9 .U L. Johnson 334 lx 11 3 2 Case, Crume (3) and Ochoa; Al len and Sparlin.

Jones got the side in order in the ninth, fanning Gil Hodges for his Ufth strikeout and the final out. Junes, 33, pitched his no-hitter against Pittsburgh when he was with the Cubs, May 12, 1955. Last May 13, he had Philadelphia no- hit until Willie Jones beat out anj infieid dribbler with two out in the seventh. He finished with a two hitter.

Last Sunday's game saw the Seals manhandle three Kub chuck crs, starter Bob Lawery, Ed Veg ley and Dolan. This week the mounoV assignment has as yet not been determined. The Kub bats will get, at least theoretically, a stiff test when the Indians' arrive. Fred Rick, Yreka hurler, has been credited with all four of the Indian league victories. Rick is down from AA ball, and was, at the first of the season, not expected to stay with t h e Yrekans. Certain problems have beset the Kubs this week regarding employ ment for players home from col lege. Faced with, the possibility of los ing a trio of his players, Whitt is .earnestly seeking aid from Klamath Falls employers in find ing positions for boys planning on slaying here unlil school recon venes in the fall. The Kub lineup for the Sunday league encounter at Gem will not be named by Whitt until the lat ter part of the week. The following are Kub baiting and hitting statistics for the over all season.

If you don't think Hoyt Wilhelm is having trouble these days, con sider this: even the New York Yankees can beat him now. The knuckleballing right-hander considered the choice as the American League's starting pitch er in next Tuesday's All-Star game at Pittsburgh, was the league's unbeaten ace after, his first nine decisions. But he hasn't won since, losing his third in a row Tuesday night as' the Yan kees rapped third place Baltimore 4-1. . And if you don't think rapped is apt for a four-run scoring spurt, you may have forgotten that the Yankees had managed only four earned runs off Wilhelm in 59 2-3 innings before Tuesday night.
