ROSEBURG Summer Amer
ican Legion baseball ended on
an unhappy note (or the Klam
ath Falcons here Monday night.
Dick Williams, a wily right
hander who turned the same
trick on the Falcons last season
in the final playoff game, did
it again Monday night and in
brilliant fashion as he four-hit
the Birds and struck out 17 in
winning the thrilling and well-
played game, 2-0, before a crowd
of 2.321.
Williams, who tlie coaches
said threw the finest game of
his career, had to do just that
because he was locked tightly
in an exciting pitcher's duel
with Jim Jackson of the Fal- .
cons who went the distance and
lost on another four-hit game.
It was his first loss of the sea
son after six wins.
It was a near flawless game
with the Lockwood Motors team
making one miscue and the
Falcons one. The one the Fal
cons made, however, didn't hurt
them as it turned out.
Thus ended a fine season for
the Falcons. They finished with
a 28-8 season record before los
ing out in these quarterfinals.
It took two extraordinary
pitching performances to beat
them out of the state running.
Roseburg is perennial cham
pion. The game was just a case of
the breaks. Both teams deserved
to win the game in the way
that tliey played. The nine-inning
game, as sufficient proof,
lasted only one hour and 40
minutes. Roseburg will now host
North Salem Post 9 in the quar
terfinals, beginning Thursday.
The Falcons hurt themselves
at the bat by whiffing 17 times.
Ran Cool struck 19 of them out
in the first contest. But the Fal
cons were hurt by taking the
called third strike seven times.
The four hits came scattered ex
cept the final tuo in the ninth
inning with two away.
Klamath got a base runner in
the first inning off Williams
when Larry Binney popped an
opposite field single to left field.
There was one out and he died
there as Williams proceeded to
strike out second sacker Lanny
Guyer and Mike Kitching. Jack
son had the first three batters
for Roseburg to ground out.
Jackson, in fact, got the first
11 men to face him and all
were ground outs except one
strike out and one pop up.
The 12th batter, Bob Manning,
slammed a triple but died on
third in the fourth when Jim
Beamer flied out deep to lett.
After both John Gray and
Jackson had ground out to Wil
liams, LeVoy Young beat out an
infield hit for the second Klam
ath hit in the third frame. But
Binney flied out to deep center
field to end that brief threat.
Nothing more happened except
quick outs until Gray reached
first on an error in the filth
and died there when Williams
made a very fine stop of Jack
son's hard shot back at him.
Then came tlie fatal sixth.
The Falcons went down in or
der but tlie Lockwood Motors
didn't. Williams himself led off
the inning by working Jackson
for a walk, the only walk he
gave up all night, lie was sac
rificed to second by Mike Blom-
berg and look third when Jay
I'aMon dropped the third strike
to Artie McDonald and had to
throw to first to get him out.
But Manning singled sharply to
left to score Williams with the
first run. He stole second base
on Jackson despite Paxton's fine
throw to the bag. And Beamer
lined Uie second single of the
inning to left and Manning
romped home. Jackson got the
side out by Tom Morrison's fly
to Kitching in center.

Notice how those American
League managers always are cry
ing about lousy pitching?
Notice, too, how they're not
saying one single word today?
They couldn't possibly, because
they wouldn't have a leg to stand
on after one look at Monday
night's boxscores.
For example:
Robin Roberts and Mickey
Lnlich tangled in a pair of tuo-
hittcrs until Dick Brown hit
pinch two-run homer with two out
in the ninth for a 2-1 Baltimore
victory over Detroit.
Joel Horlcn hurled hitless ball
for 8 1-3 innings, then wound upi
losing a two-hitter when Don
Lock's two-run homer with two
out in the ninth brought Washing
ton a 2-1 win over Chicago.
Dean Chance of Los Angeles
held Cleveland hitless until the
seventh and settled for a two-
hit 11-0 victory.
Rariatz Shines Again
Dick Radatz came up with an
other one of his brilliant relief
jobs In nail clown a 7-5 triumph
for Boston over Minnesota and
Dave Wickersham of Kansas City
pitched his first major league
shutout to stop the Yankees, 5-0,
in the other AL games.
Roberts' two-hit victory over
the Tigers was tlie 253rd of his
ma jor league career and his ninth
of the. year for the Orioles. Lo-
lich had a one-hitter and a 1-0
lead until pinch hitter Al Smith:
singled with one out in the ninth.
The Detroit rookie then got Luis
Aparicio on a fly hall but Brown
came off the bench to deliver a
two-run homer that dealt Lolich
his sixth setback in 10 decisions.
Heart-Breaking Loss
Horlen's loss to the Senators
was equally heart-breaking. Re
called from the minors last week,
the White Sox righthander held
Washington hitless until Chuck
Hinton singled over second base
with one out in the ninth.
Larry Osborne grounded out for
the second out but Lock then
drilled his 17th homer into the
left field bullpen.
Lock's homer made a winner of
knuckleballer Ronnie Kline, who
relieved starter Steve Ridzik in
the eighth.
' The only Cleveland hits off
Chance were Fred Whitfield's
bloop single in the seventh and
Woodie Held's single In the eighth
after Los Angeles had already
clinched the game with an eight
run rally in the third.
Felix Torres highlighted the An
gels' outburst with a grandslam
homer off Jerry Walker, who had
relieved loser Dick Donovan
Chance struck out 12 batters and
walked two in bringing his rec-,
ord to 10-10. Donovan now is 6-9.
Monbouquette Won 14th
Bill Monbouquette registered
his 14th victory for the Red Sox
although tagged for four homers
bv the Twins. Radatz came to
Monbouquetle's rescue in the
eighth and struck out three of the
six baiters lie faced.
Loser Jim Perry ran into a
five-run Boston rallv in the first
marked hy Dick Stuart's 22nd
homer with two on and Ed Bros
snud's 13lh homer with tlie bases
empty. Roman Mejias doubled
home two more runs for the Red
Sox in the third. Bob Allison hit
his 23rd homer for the Twins.
Earl Batley his 21st, Vic Power
his sixth and Don Mincher his
10th before Radalz made his 44th
appearance of the season.

Palmer Grabs Western
Open Meet With Bogey
CHICAGO (UPII
bogey won't win a duffer a beer,
but for pro golf's leading money
winner, Arnold Palmer, a bogey
was good for $11,000 and the
Western Open championship.
Palmer won with a bogey be
cause Julius Boros got a double
Iwgey. The third playoff contest
ant, Jack Nicklaus, also got a
bogey.
Tlie over-all performance of the
hio on the 205-yard 17th hole at
Beverly Country Club Monday
may have been the worst ever
on network television or in the
final round of a $57,200 tourna
ment.
Palmer, who wound up with a
nne-undcr-par 70 for the 6. 867
yard course, said he had "seen
worse," however. Boros finished
with a 71 and Nicklaus with a 73.
Palmer, who said he played
pretty well for 13 holes and
then 1 wasn't too sharp," started
Usually a the 17th tied with Boros at two
under par, with Nicklaus even
par.
Hit Into Trap
Palmer hit into a trap and Bo
ros into tne rougn oeiuna me
green. Nicklaus' tee shot stopped
five feet from the pin.
Palmer's blast from the trap
went 35 feet past the pin and
Boros dubbed his approach and
his ball stopped 22 feet short of
the flag. Both missed their first
putts. '
This set up a situation in which
there could have been a three-
way deadlock if each player sank
his next putt. Instead, Nicklaus1
missed and three-putted for his
four. Palmer sank his putt fnr the
bogey. Boros, barely 18 inches
from the flag, missed and three
putted for a five.
This hole wrapped up Palmer's
sixth tourney championship of the
year. On the 18th he parred, miss-1 in his last five tournaments.
ing a 12-foot birdie pull, but Bo
ros missed his birdie try from
seven feet to lose his comeback
chance.
Tlie trio tied for first place aft
er the regulation n noics witn
2R0 four under par, to set up the
playoff.
Palmer s victory increased nis
1963 earnings to $96,955.
Both Boros and Nicklaus earned
$4,450 for the round with Nick
laus increasing his 1963 earnings'
to $79,590 and Boros to $69,996 to
run two-three behind Palmer. The
trio contributed their 50 per cent
of the day's gale receipts to the
Chick Evans caddie fund.
It was Palmer's sixth win in II
playoffs and the second playoff
defeat for both of his opponents,
in four tries for Nicklaus and five

Warren Spahn now ranks as the
all-time left-handed strikeout king
of the majors but you'd better
put an asterisk in front of that.
Until Friday, anyway.
That's when Milwaukee's super
lative 42-year-old southpaw is due
to work next and since he'll go
against the Mets that night, he'll
probably dispel any existing question.
Actually there should be no
question even now. To all intents
nd -purposes Spahn broke the
strikeout record for le.'t-handed
pitchers by fanning five batters
in an 8-2 victory over Cincinnati
Monday night.
Those five strikeouts tipped his
major league total to 2.378. No
argument there. But there is
some argument over Rube Wad-
dell's total.
Record Books Differ
Most record hooks say the for
mer Philadelphia Athletics' south
paw struck out 2,375 batters dur
ing his career but in some books
his total is listed at 2,381.
Ostensibly that was all settled
17 years ago when Bob Feller
was officially recognized the sin
gle season record-holder after
striking out 348 batters for Cleve
land in 1946. Feller was acknowl
edged to have broken the record
even though Waddell was credited
with 349 strikeouts for the 1904
season in some books and 343 in
others.
Those six strikeouts by Waddell
are the same ones under question
now even though it was all sup
posed to have been settled
1946. According to the Little Red
Book of Baseball, Waddell's total
was 2,375. But some purists insist
on going by "One for tlie Book
which lists waddell s total as
2,381.
Needs Four Strikeouts
Regardless, Spahn has a much
better chance of getting rid of his
asterisk than Roger Maris has.
All the veteran southpaw needs is
four strikeouts against the Mets
Friday night and he'll be the new
r e c o r d-holdcr in everybody's
book.
Spahn held the Reds to six hits
Monday night m posting the 3401 h
victory of his major league ca
reer and his 13th triumph of the
season compared with five de
feats. Hank Aaron's 30th homer of the
season with one on and Lee
Maye's eighth homer with one on,
both off loser John Tsitouris in
the first inning, proved enough
margin for Spahn, who later
yielded solo homers to Vada Pin
son and Frank Robinson.
The Los Angeles Dodgers
mapped their four-game losing
streak and maintained their 4'j
game lead with a 6-2 victory over
the Philadelphia Phillies while the
San Francisco Giants won their
eighth straight by beating tlie
Pittsburgh Pirates. 5-4, in the
only other National League action.
Threw Five-Hitler
Sandy Koufax checked the
Dodgers' backslide with a five-
hitter over the Phils that earned
him his 17lh victory against four
losses. Koufax struck out seven
ind walked four. Two-run homers
by Tommy Davis and Willie Da
vis sent 37-year-old Cal McLish
down to his sixth defeat com
pared with 10 victories.
Willie Mays 24lh homer with
two on gave the Giants their vic
tory over the Pirates and marked
the third time within a week that
Mays has delivered a game-win
ning homer. His blow wiped out
3-2 deficit and came off Vein
Law, who also gave up a solo
homer to Chuck Hillcr in the
third.

Germans
Favored
Over Yanks
BRAUNSCHWEIG, Germany
(UPI) The touring United
States women's track and field
team takes on the German na
tional team today in the opening
of their two-day meet with the
host nation favored to hand the
Yank girls their third straight
loss.
West German publications are
predicting victory for their team
and there is little to indicate that
the German girls will fail. How
ever, the American girls, who
lost by a lopsided score to Rus
sia and then made it close
against Poland last weekend,
were expected to make perhaps
their best showing of the tour, al
though even American officials
traveling with the team would not
go so far as to predict a victory.
The American men are unde
feated in two starts. They beat
the Russians by just five points,
119-114, but routed the Poles, 125-
83.
