It's also just as basic to base ball fans that they'll have to find another excuse if they expect the New York Yankees to lose the pennant, Kord, a clever lefthander with a pixjeish sense of humor, was bothered by arm trouble part of last season and he still wasn't feeling right when the current campaign started as he lost his first two games. Yankee baiters Were quick to point out that a broken-dovvn Ford would cause the world champions to run out of gas. The Yankees were rolling on a full tank Thursday when Ford threw a four-hit shutout at the Los Angeles Angels in a 7.-0 vie tory. Ford, who after the game said his arm felt stronger than at any time since the 1951 World Scries, now has a string of 16 scoreless innings during which he has yielded just six hits. The Kansas City Athletics leu fiJV V A SETS ANOTHER RECORD Cardinals' act outfielder and record tmoihing Stan Musial fiad Babe Ruth's axtra bat hit record of 1,356 with a two-run double in the seventh inning of the Card-Cub game in St. Louis Thursday night.

Stan the Man, now 42. got off to a slow start i;h the St. Louis Cardinals this season alter no less an authority than Branch Rickey had suggested he might be excess baggage for the team to carry. Manager Johnny Keane, however, closed his ears to the advice and waited for Musial to supply his own answer. That (he Man did Thursday night with a three-run, seventh inning double that lilted the Car dinals to a 4-3 victory over the Chicago Cubs and Increased tlicir National League lead to two games. The double enabled Musial to tie Babe Ruth't major league record of 1.336 extra base hits and also raised his career KUI tolal to 1.901. "He was a .260 hitler (10 hits In 40 tries this season) when he went to the plate." remarked Kcane in the dressing room. "1 figured he was just the .2."o-hiUer we needed in that spot." Wins Fifth Straight Musial's big hit cancelled out a three run ninth-inning homer by Ron Santo and gave Ray Wash burn his fifth straight win.

Two more runs followed in the seventh, one of which came in on a Pcpitone single.

River The Henley Hornets, twice champions of the Rogue League in basebalr, will be going after an other title Saturday at Gem Sta dium when they host the Rogue River Chieftains, surprise winner of the West half of the league, in the first of a three-game series. The first game is at Gem Sta dium and the second game moves to Rogue River next Saturday for one if needed. The Hornets won the second game, and third the East half of the league by downing Sacred Heart twice in succession. The Chieftains won out over Eagle Point and Illinois Valley. Henley will enter this game with an 8-1 record. The Hornets have been hampered most of the season by bad weather. Rogue River comes into the contest with a 13-2 mark. Henley's only loss came at the hands of the Klamath Jay vees but the Hornets revenged the loss. One of Rogue River's losses was to Eagle Point, the league favorite. Gary Duifee will start on the mound for Henley. Earl Allbrilton will be the back-up pitcher and the first baseman, johnny Crume will be at second, LcVoy Young at short, Steve Reiling at third, Mike Bcymer or Gary Barker in left, Ben Stochsler in center and Sam Cox in right. Steve Hand will catch. Mike O'Brien, a big, strong righthander, opens for the Chief tains. Bill Cooper will be behind the plale. Vic Lowe at first, Wayne Cook at second. Brad Fra- tier at third, Dan Dellany at short and Frank Palmerton. Bob Itai gosa, and Pat McCortncy in the outfield. to produce some record perform ances. Some new marks to lead the state are expected. Klamath has one athlete which leads the state in javelin thrower Walt Smith. Medford has the top broad jumper in the state in Jim Hill and thu top 880-yard relay team. They also have some of the best -times in the state which are just below the best recorded times. The Pelicans will be hard pressed to stay with the Tornadu in the dashes. The Tornado has Mike Dcibele in the 100 and 220. He has 9.9 and 22.0 clockings in the events. And Hill, the broad jumper is right on his heels -in both events. Steve Toews has the second best half mile mark in the state with a 1:57.2 clocking. Hill has broad- jumped 22-83. Deibele's 22 flat 220 is the second best in the state. Klamath is led by Smith who is nearing the state and national rec ord in the javelin. Ihe Pelican junior has hurled the spear 214 42 for the best mark in the slate. He is nine feet short of the state record and national record and it is held by Glenn Winningham of Grants Pass at 225-6'i. Arie DeGroot, one of the fast est improving boys on the KU team, will watch Hill and Dei- bele in the dashes and might fool them or at least push them to even better times than they have. Bill Mills should give the Peli cans some points in the shot put and discus. Mills has one of the best discus throws in the state at 149 feet and that should be enough to win over Medford. He has also set a new school record in the shot put with a heave of 50-8' 2. Grovcr Dahn and Terry Eccles will lead the KU colors in the broad jump and will have to get ofl their best jumps of the season to match Hill. The Pelicans also should gain some points in the hurdles where Don Graham is im proving constantly. He will be pushed by brothers John English and Charlie Church. Church, an other youngster on the KU team. is showing promise. The 880-yard relay team of De Groot, Dahn, English and Eccles could push the Medford team to an even better clocking than the have to lead the state. They have been clocked in 1:30.7. The meet begins at 1 p.m. and the freshman team will run simul: taneously against the McLoughlin team of Medford. The varsity runs and the freshmen run in the heat following.
