"They scored one run In the fifth and one In the seventh to tie it up," Partlow said. "They got nine hits against our our but we had some fine fielding.

Ferres came In in the fourth and worked two innings, givlpg up tlie first COS run. Hunter worked the seventh and gave up tlie oilier run. Ed wards came In from his third base spot to hurl I lie final four frames and hold the COS nine scoreless," Partlow explained. He praised the play behind the plate of former Henley slar John Crumrlne. "He did a fine job catentng and really hit the ball well, but It was always right at someone, lie looks like a coming player for the Owls," Partlow claimed. "Ed Aprileman made great catch in the outfield in the 10th inning. He caught a fly hall through that swirling snow and near darkness.

By JERRY WAGGONER Herald and News Sports Editor The Klamalh Union Pelicans, behind the combined four-hit pitching of five reserve hurlcrs, downed the Weed Cougars with ease Tuesday afternoon, 8-4, for tlieir fourth straight victory in five games. Assistant Coach Wade Patter son, taking over for an ill Coach Bill Mansfield, used 16 players in tlie game, five of them pitch ers, lo get a better look at some vho hadn't been seen under fire. Most passed with flying colors. Palterson saved the two starl ing hurlers, No-Hit Rich Jackson and No-Hit Gary Benson, for the upcoming doublcheader in Rose- burg Saturday, a non-confer ence duo. The Pelicans, despite a shaky nun irame by Mm Coon, were complele command of tlie game all the way. Coon was the only Pelican hurler who didn't fare too well under the fire. But It was his lack of control which got him into trouble. Patterson termed the perform ance of four of the five hitlers a good one ana it certainly was in dicative of things to come. Jim Jackson started tlie game and was credited with the win. He gave up one run and two of the four hits. He 'was relieved by Rich Grow who hurled two in nings of no-hit, no-run ball. He gol tlie first two batlers he faced then walked three in a row. He llien killed any Cougar hopes by Inking out tlie next man. Grow was relieved by Coon who didn't have his control. He got the first man but an error by Mike Hitching let the second batter on base. Coon walked three and gave up two singles before fresh man Bob Moore came in to ex tinguish the fire with a good fast ball. He worked two and two thirds innings with no hits and no runs. Hon Yunck worked one stanza with success although he walked one. The game fin ished in the top of the eighth because it got too cold. Jackson got the opening batter but walked the next two and the bags were loaded when he bob bled a grounder back to him Bob Delgado scored on a wild pitch before Jackson struck out tlie next two batlers. The Pelicans came back to lie it up in Iheir half when Rich Bi(th drew a free pass and ad vanccd on a throwing error Kitching singled back through the I when Weed made its rally.

The Pelicans had their big inn ing in the second when they scored six runs. The second inn ing seems to be their big inning in every game. Rick Horn led off with a walk and Marvin Yunck singled to left. Lanny Guy- er plated Horn with a single to left and Yunck stole home while Guyer was being thrown out at second on an attempted steal Jackson ground out and Bath walked. Tom Osa reached first on an error and Kitching singled again to drive home another run. oray got lirst via an error and Vern Pctrick the same way Horn singled and Marvin Yunck finished the inning with a field' er's choice which cut Horn down at second. llie I'cls got their linal run in tlie fourth when Gray led off with a double lo right.

(UPD-Arnold Palmer, going contrary to all tradition, singled out newcomer Tony Lema today as a good bet lo become the only golfer in his tory ever to win I he Masters on his first try. I realize no first-timer ever has won here before." said the 33-year-old Palmer, who will be seeking his fourth Masters' title starling Thursday, "but that does not mean it can't happen. 'And if it docs happen. Lema could be the boy to do it. Man have you seen some of his drives': He hits 'em clear out of sight I like the rest of his game, too." In On "A Pass" Lema, a slender, good looking 29-year-old pro from Oakland, Calif., Is in tlie Masters on "a pass. He was invited only a few weeks ago because of his out standing play on the fall tour and honest enough In admit his knees still are shaking a bit. 'I'm sorry if I seem preoccu pied," he apologized while beat ing a bagful of balls on the prac tice tee, "but this is my first time here and I'm still trying to get my bearings. "I can understand why they say it takes a few years to get the feel of being in the Masters. I'm honored just to have been in vitedwhy, some of the men in this tournament like (Gene) Sar- azen and 1 Byron 1 Nelson I only know from Veading about. A man who .was invited here for the first time and didn't feel the magnitude of this event would have to be numb." Still, ther are oilier fine golf ers besides Palmer who think the rangy Lema has an excellent chance to shatter precedent. Lema Has Equipment "Ordinarily, you have to stick with Palmer and some of the boys who have done it in the past," says former- PGA champ Jay Hebert, "hut don't sell a fel low like Lema short. I like the way he's been playing lately and he has the equipment to win here." 'A'ally Buikemo, another former PGA champ, thinks so, too. "He's one of those long knock ers who can carry most of these hills with his drives," Burkemo said. "The first time out here is always rough. You gotta get used to hitting in the water and you gotta know when to go for it and when not to. "Bui if one of these new boys is going to do it, I'd put my money on Lema. He looks like he knows what to. do with those 14 sticks." Lema, winner of four tourna ments last fall, has played in nine so far this year and finished in the top 10 in seven of them.
