Ford Well, Leads
Yanks By Angels
By MARTIN I.ADEIl
UPI Sports Writer
It won't require any kind ot
medical knowledge to establish
that all Is well with Whitey Ford's
left arm.
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.

Musial Sets New Record,
Gives Cards Two-Game Lead
By FRED DOWN
ITl Sports Writer
Old man Musial ain't what he
used to be hut he's not yet ready
to throw aside his bat in favor
- of a rocking chair in the sun.
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. A sin
gle by Curt Flood and walks to
George Altman and Ken Boyer
filled the bases and act the stage
for .Musial's winning hit off cx
tcammate Larry Jackson.
The San Francisco Giants beat
the Pittsburgh Pirates, 2-1, the
Milwaukee Braves romped at the
expense of the Cincinnati Reds,
8-0, the Los Angeles Dodgers de

Felipe Alou provided him with Uic

Philadelphia Phillies, 3-2; the Mil
waukee Braves whitewashed the
Cincinnati Reds, 8-0; and in the
lone day contest the New York
Mets romped over the Houston
Colts, 10-3.
Ford's victory was an import
ant one for the Yankees, who h id
lost two straight in Los Angeles
and were threatened with a drop
to the second division. After five
scoreless innings, New York
broke the game wide open in the
sixth on a bases-loaded walk and
a grand-slam homer by Joe Pcpi-
tone. Two more runs followed in
the seventh, one of which came
in on a Pcpitone single.
Pepitone's homer was his fifth
of the season, a club high, and
the young first baseman also tops
the Yankees in runs-batted-in
with 11.
Woody Held cracked a grand
slam homer to pace the Indian
assault and rookie Vic Davalillo
contributed a homer and a dou
ble. Cleveland bombarded four
Kansas City pitchers for 18 hits,
including four by Tito Francona,
to overcome an early 41 deficit,
Reliever Barry Latman gained his
first victory of the season and
Dave Wickcrsham was charged
with his first loss against one win.
First baseman Bubo Osborne,
sold by the Tigers to Washington
earlier this year, came back to
haunt his old teammates with a
pair of home runs as Detroit vet
eran Frank Lary could last only
four innings in another comeback
attempt. The Tigers got 14 hits
off Claude Osteen and Jim Bioi
stad but stranded. 12 runners. It
was Bronstad'a first success in
three decisions and Lary now is
0-2.
Brooks Robinson broke a bad
batting slump with a bases-loaded
single in the ninth inning as the
Orioles erupted for three runs to
edge the White Sox. Chicago had
7-2 lead after four Innings and
seemed safe behind the strong
serves of Juan Pizarro, but Balti
more retaliated with two in the
fifth and then narrowed the deficit
to 7-5 on Bob Johnson's first home
run in the eighth inning. Reliev
er Dean Stone was the benefici
ary of the late rally for his first
win and Gary Peters was charged
with his second straight loss.

Battle
R. 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
