The perennial bugaboo of the
Klamath Kubs, the lack of ample
time and space for sufficient prac
tice, has to be ignored this week
as the Klamath Kubs head into
one of the stiffest tests of the
Northern California league base
ball schedule when they play host
to the league leading Yreka In
dians in Gem Stadium Sunday.
Game time is 2 p.m.
The holiday weekend test finds
the Kubs, one game down to the
Yrekans already this year, facing
a pitching assortment that prom
ises a real challenge to Kub bat
ling power.
Figured as starting pitchers are
Indians Fred Rick or Mike Bran-
ham. Uick, an ex-AA twirler, has
been credited with all four Yreka
wins to dale, while Branham, who
is recovering from a minor auto
mobile accident injury, is being

An added force of California
drivers takes the track this Satur
day evening when the weekly
hardtOD races get underway at
the Eberlein Street speedway. The
closure of two Northern California
race tracks benefits local fans as
15 drivers from as far south as
Chico have made their intentions
known to appear on the local card
Saturday.
Earl Sheridan, local promoter,
reports that another five or six
are also expected to show up for
Saturday's program.
The eight-event program will get
underway with the time trials be
ginning at 7 p.m. followed by
the trophy dashes at 8 o'clock.
In spite of crackups and motor
trouble last weekend, three local
drivers Dale Hankins, Spinner
Smith and Johnny Jones, are ex
pected to return to the track ready
to go this weekend.
Bud Cook, 1857-58 champion, and
Kenny Kimes from Paisley, last

Maxwell
Big Man
In Success
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Detroit's injured Tigers have
hobbled back into third place,
just two , games short of the
American lague lead. And Char
lie Maxwell's bat has been their
crutch.
At the moment the Tigers are
without outfielders Al Kaline and
Johnny Grolh and i n f 1 e I d e r s
Frank Boiling and Ted Lepcio.
Pitcher Jim Bunning hopes to
come back today. Yet they ve
won three in a row and four of
their last five and Maxwell's
been the big man in all four successes.
Thursday night he scored twice
and beat the second-place Chica
go White Sox 9-7 with his 18th
homer a grand-slam in the
eighth inning.
That left first-place Cleveland
with a one-game lead despite a
6-4 defeat at Kansas City. But De
troit closed in as Baltimore took
fourth place by skidding New
York from third to fifth, beating
the Yankees 3-1.
Tigers 9, Chi Sox 7
Maxwell's homer, off reliever
Turk Lown, gave the Tigers a 9-2
lead that was just enough. The
White Sox chased winner Don
Mossi (7-3) in a five-run ninth
triggered by Al Smith's grand
slam. Bob Shaw (6-3) lost It.
Athletics 6, Indians 4
One of four Cleveland errors
gave the A's the clincher in a two
run fifth when Bill Tuttle hit an
RBI triple and scored himself on
I Jim Baxes' relay error. Ray Her
bert (5-7) won It with johmny
Kucks' relief help. Gary Bell
(6-8) was the loser.
Orioles 3, Yankees 1
The Orioles beat Don Larsen
(6-3) for the. first time in 12 deci
sions since September 5, 1955, al
though they managed only five
hits. They scored all their runs
on three hits in the first two in
nings. Bob Nieman followed Gene
Woodling's two-out single with his
ninth home run in the first, and
winning pitcher Jerry Walker
(6-3) drove the other with a
two-out bloop single in the second.
Solons 6, Red Sox 3
Jim Lemon doubled home the
tying run in the eighth for Wash
ington, then broke it up with a
three-run homer in the 10th off re
liever Leo Kiely (2-2).
