Craig Yanks ame Losing Along Hickman's Grand Slam Beats Cubs Twins Leading AL In Home Run Race Maior Leaaue Breaks Skein; loll By L'nilrd Press International Tlie lung wail is over for Roger Craig lhanks lo a slam thai made the entire baseball world feel grand. The blow heard 'round both the National and American Leagues came off the bat of Jim Hick man at 10:31 p.m., EDT, Friday night and earned Craig and the New York Mets a 7-3 victory over tlie Chicago Cubs. It also ended a streak of hard luck during uhich Craig equalled the National League record of 18 consecutive defeats and came within one loss of matching the major league mark of 19 set by John Nabors in 1016. The string began on April 20 and it must have seemed to Craig right up to the moment that Hickman con nected that it would never end. i Craig was lifted for a pinch hitter one batter earlier so he was technically out of the game when Hickman faced iclief pitch er Lindy McDaniel with two out and the bases filled in the bot-l Jlm of the ninth. 1 McDaniel Grooves Pitch The count went to 3 and 2 be fore McDaniel grooved the pitch that got Craig nut ol the rut. Frank Thomas also homered for; the Mets while Andre Rodgers1 and Lou Brock connected for the Cubs. The victory raised Craig's seas on record to 3-20 and was widely cheered by the sympathetic crowd of 11,568 which seemed lo "regard Craig as a symbol of all "Its own frustrations. The Mets -had scored only 30 runs all seas on for Craig, who in 1062 sweated out a 10-24 campaign. The San Francisco Giants ad-! vanced to within 4'j games of the NL lead with a 4-0 victory! over the Philadelphia Phillies, the Cincinnati Reds defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers, 8-4. the Milwaukee Braves downed the St. Louis Cardinals. 6-3. and the Houston Colls and Pittsburgh Pir ates split 7-6 decisions in a doubleheader that went 15 and 11 innings respectively.

It was expected that Galento, the round and rnwdyish man from Orange, N. J., would jump off his chair and yell: "I could'a moidcred the bum!" Because that was the way Tony used to vilify the opposition when he was a heavyweight contender back in the 1930 s and early '40 s. Opponents like Joe Louis, Max Baer and Lou Nova. Instead, the 53-year-old former pugilist let his hairy right hand deposit the coffee cup gently, with elephantine grace, on its saucer. And he said frankly Yakima Gains Tilt On Salem Rv llnU-d Pres.

Tlie Bears added four more in the seventh to wrap it up. Salem stumbled on a seven-hit pitching job by Billy Harris of Tri-Cily who won his seventh in his last eight decisions. Harris drove in Ihree runs in his own behalf. Ernie Fnli had a pair of homers, one a grand-slammer in the fifth and the other a solo shot in tlie eighth. Eugene got a three-hit pitching job Irom Bruce Howard to nip Wenatchee. Howard fanned 14 and relircd the last 17 men lo (ace him.

And I'm glad they postponed his title match with Sonny Listen till next year because it II give young Cassius just enough time to be at full strength for Liston and to beat Liston maybe knock him out." "Are you serious?" said the sports writer, just as surprised as tlie other blinking listeners. "Sure I'm serious," said the full-faced man with the sparse black hair. "Clay'll beat Liston lor sure when they fight, 'In other words," said Ilic writer, "you're insinuating now I hat Liston s a bum." "No, I'm not," defended Tony "But I do say I think Liston is a lot older than the 29 years they call him. He looks to me like he's at least 40, and I never miss in calling a fighter's age." Galento, who is now a job sup erintendent for a large New Jer sey contract plumbing company added that, regardless of Liston' s age, Clay has the equipment and lhe "eagerness" to take Sonny's tille. Clay s an eager guy a pop- on guy, like 1 was, he explained "' llsed " ydh 'I'll moider the bllm.!' Bnd U,e" ''d d really try to do it. I figure a pop-off fighler'll come through his promise about nine out of 10 limes. He just has to." Necessary Koulptueiil What kind of equipment has Clay got that fits lum to beat burly Liston. who is a cunning ring general, and a mule-kick puncher? He's got lhe equipment (Gcnci Tunney had lo beat Jack Demp sey twice," replied Tony. Galenlo and wife Mary still live in Orange. Anthony, Jr.. their 25-year-old son, has charge of maintenance crews at a near by airport. Who was the hardest hitler he ever faced? Tony said it wasl Maxic Baer. Yes, Maxic hit hard er than Joe Louis, whom Tony staggered in their first round and floored in the third. But Louis knocked out Tony in the fourth round, when Tony came up for air out of a crouch he was using for the nighl. And Tony was having "lung trouble" willi pneumonia, he said.

They couldn't lose thai one if they let tlie Datooy sub tor manager Ralph Houk for the rest of tlie season. But there is a definite possi bility that tlie Minneosla Twins will wind up wearing a tradition al Yankee trademark: the home run title. The Twins have clubbed 150 homers in 113 games to put them five homers ahead ol the Yankees and the way the Minnesota mus- clemen hit 'cm in bunches they're a good bet to finish the season on top.

Salmon Problem Imminent A brutal disregard for spring - chinook salmon by anglers in llock Creek, an important chi-; nook spawning tributary of the trout fishing, forced Phil Schnei der, stale game director, to de clare a state of emergency which closed tlie entire stream to all fishing. The emergency closure on Rock Creek was effective Thurs day at 6 a.m., Aug. 8, and will remain closed until further no-; tioe. Schneider said that more than 1,000 spring chinook are present ly in Rock Creek waiting the spawning time. Fishermen of the area over the past several weeks have mistreated these fish by mo lesting, wholesale snagging, and dynamiting. Just recently, Schneider said, game commission biologists using SCUBA gear in spected this run of salmon and found at least five per cent of the fish had from one to three hooks ' embedded in their bodies, and twice that number had bodies ripped by snagging. One resting pool was dynamited. Piano wire snares were recovered, and of over 60 fishing outfits recovered from tlie pools, more than half were rigged for illegal snagging. Schneider admonished anglers for the illegal practice, as well as conscientious sportsmen for al lowing it to be done. He said the practice was widespread this summer, and much illegal snag ging took place on the Rogue River and Santiam, as well as in the Umpqua. If the practiced continues, Schneider said, addi-jj lional fishing waters will be closed $ down lo all angling to protect tilts important resource. TRAILER!
