Determined Locals
Arrive At Site
By JERRY WAGGONER
Herald and News Sports Editor
The Klamath Basin Babe Ruth tram parked its bags and
left for the Babe Ruth World Series Thursday morning. But there
was more than clothes, gloves and shoes In those bags. The Klam
ath group carried along with it dedication, desire, durability
and determination.
If those four words mean anything, the Oregon representative
from the Klamath Rasin should come Jack with a world cham
pionship in those bags along with the clothes, desire, dedication,
durability and determination.
The local crew, the smallest team (city-wise) in the tourna
ment, carries the burden of being the Pacific Northwest Regional
champion, and It hopes to bring back a title for the region.
Portland's Madison made the finals last season but was beaten
by a New Jersey team, 7-6. Klamath hopes to better that by one
step.
This Is a team which doesn't quit, as it demonstrated in
(he Regional Tournament by bouncing off the deck of almost
certain defeat three times in order to gain that title. Chamber of
commerce president George Callison perhaps described it best by
saying that they have omitted three words from their vocabulary,
fear, fatigue and failure.
Coach Rob Moore's team just doesn't think in terms of lose
ing. We looked for signs to place on the sides of their vehicles
when they left Klamath Falls Thursday. Moore explained that
away by saying that "these kids are going strictly to play ball and
to win. Thai's all they are thinking about."
The teams also will be afforded some varied and interesting
entertainment and trips while there. Governor Jack Campbell will
speak tonight at the banquet and will also throw out the first hall.
They will have an opportunity to hear and meet former New
York Yankee pitching great, Lefty Gomez. Also, the BHL young
sters will have Mrs. Babe Ruth, widow of the the home run king,
as a guest. Other baseball personalities will be on deck for the
12th classic.
During the off-hours of the series, fans and players will have
an opportunity to visit the famous Aztec Ruins, Mesa Verde, where
a culture existed and died before Columbus ever sailed.
The 14 boys making the trip are Bob Moore Jr., Gob Williams,
Greg and Rick Brosterhous, Dave Lyman, Mike MrNary, Arle
DeGrool, Alan Mezger, Kim Badlry, Russ Smith, Mike Keck,
Mike North, Steve Huettl and Ken Pound. The three roaches with
the team are Bob Moore Sr., Dave Saks and Harold Howard.
Since the Inception of this tournament back in 1952, the Babe
Ruth program has been a breeding ground for major league ball
players. Some of those now in pro ball who plaved in the series
are Bob Savarine, Baltimore; John Edwards, Cincinnati; Dick
Radatz, Red Sox; Al Downing, Yankees; Jim Maloncy, Cincinnati;
Vada Pinson, Cincinnati; Art Mahaffey, Phillies; Dick LcMay,
Cubs; Cletis Boyer, Yankees, and Carl Yastrezemskl, Red Sox, to
name a few.

Rodriguez
Knocks Out
D. Moyer
MIAMI BEACH, Fla. (UPI)
Little Luis Rodriguez came on
like a miniature battering ram
Saturday night and scored a tech
nical knockout over Denny Moyer
at 1:39 of the ninth round in their
nationally-televised bout.
Moyer, former junior middle
weight champion of the world,
dropped after taking a hard right
to the nose and got up at the
count of five. But referee Billy
Regan took one look at the glassy
eyed boxer and stopped the fight.
Rodriguez, 26-ycar-old former
welterweight champion, was ahead
all the way. He dropped Moyer
about two minutes into the eighth
round but the game Portland.
Ore., fighter held on for the rest
of the round.
Rodriguez weighed in at 131'.i
pounds and Moyer at 157!-j.
After a dull opening round, Rod
riguez of Miami Beach, Fla., start
ed piling up the points with two-
fisted barrages to the DreaaDas
ket and the chin of Moyer. He
rocked Mover in the third, with
swift left and right blows to thej
chin: in the fourth with two hard
rights to tire cheek and in the
fifth with a right to the chin and
a barrage to the stomach.
But Moyer was never in serious
trouble until the eighth. Seconds
after the opening bell, a whistling
left opened up an n'.i cut on the
right side of Mover's chin.
Abandoning his usual flashy,
dancing style, Rodriguez waded in
like a slugger, throwing quick
jacks and hooks with both hands.
It was a hard right to the side
of the head that felled Moyer in
the eighth but he stood up at
the count of two and took an eight
count before resuming the light.
Glassy-eyed, he hung on and Rod
riguez pounded him until the bell
sounded.
