FARMINGTON, X.M. - "Bui
let" Bob Moore combined a bril
liant three-hit pitching perform
ance with a two-run double by
the team's youngest player,
Crfeg Brosterhous, to lead the
Klamath Basin Babe Ruth All
Stars to a 3-1 win in the open
ing round over Missouri's team
from Joplin here Tuesday after
noon. The Oregon team will meet
Tulsa, Okla., tonight at 6 o'clock.
Tuba is one of the repeating
teams from last year's tourna
ment and is figured as one of
the better teams.
Oregon's opening win was an
impressive one over the Missouri
team. Moore went the distance
and did a fine hurling job in al
lowing only three hits, one run
which was unearned and struck
out nine in the process.
The one big hit of the game
came off the bat of Greg Bros
terhous. His double was the tell
ing blow as the Klamath crew
managed only four hits off loser
Stan Hunter and relief hurler Ron
Xovanty. Novanty gave the Klam-

Off Again
LOUISVILLE, Ky. UPI - A
proposed 1964 title bout between
Cassius Marcellus Clay of Louis
ville and heavyweight champion
Sonny Liston was off today, fol
lowing an announcement that ne
gotiations between the two camps
had "fallen apart."
Distillery executive William
Faversham. a member of the
Louisville businessmen's syndi
cate which manages Clay, said
Tuesday night the group found
Liston's terms for a 1964 bout
"unacceptable."
At Philadelphia. Bill Cherry,
attorney for Inter - Continental
Sports, which had hoped to stage
a Clay-Liston fight there, said.
"We offered Clay the best deal
any challenger ever received
22' 7 per cent of everything."
He said that Lifton and Jack
Niion. one of his advisers, will
be in Sweden later this week
attempting to interest Ingcmar

innings of relief work.
There wasn't anything spectacu
lar aoout the way the Oregonians
won the game. It was a method
ical victory and the boys were
quietly confident from the begin
ning. Moore got tlie side out in order
in the first but the Nationals went
down in order in their half also.
Moore struck the side out in the
second inning with an infield sin
gle by Ralph Rodgers sandwiched
in between.
The Klamath team then went
to work to get all their three
runs in the bottom half of the
frame. Dave Lyman, shortstop,
laid into the first Hunter pitch
and lashed it over the shortstop's
head for a single. Catcher Bob
Williams, his uniform already
soaked in the humid heat of New
Mexico, blooped a Texas League
single to right and Lyman held at
second. Alan Mczger went down
on strikes. But then came Greg
Brosterhous' hit. He drove a 1-1
pitch between center and left field
on the line to the wall. Lyman
and Williams were off at the crack
of the bat and raced home. Bros-

them, 7-5, Tuesday night to in
crease their National League lead
to 6' 2 games.
The Cardinals came into Los
Angeles filled with pennant ideas
following their three straight vic
tories over the stumbling San
Francisco Giants.
One misplay killed all those
ideas and the unlortunate victim
was first baseman Bill White, or
dinarily one of the finest players
in the circuit.
Here was the situation:
The Dodgers trailed, 4-2, in the
fourth inning and had runners on
first and second when John Rose
boro grounded to White.
Trying to lorce speedy Willie
Davis at second. White threw the
ball into center field, enabling
Frank Howard to score from sec
ond and Davis all the way from
first on the error.
Before the inning was over, the
Dodgers rallied for live runs and
that was tlie ball game.
The Giants, meanwhile, fell 7Vz
games off the pace by dropping
a 6-1 decision to the Braves. The
Reds beat the Colts, 1-0, the Mcls
ended the Phillies' eight-game
winning streak with a 4-0 victory
in the opener of a twin-bill but
lost the nightcap, 2-1, in 12 in
nings and the Pirates defeated
the Cubs, 5-3.
In the American League, the
Indians nipped the Yankees, 2-1,
the Tigers shut out the Twins, 6-0,
the White Sox bowled over the
Red Sox, 10-2, and the Athletics
took a pair from the Senators, 9-0
and 7-5 in 14 innings. ' Rain
washed out the Los Angeles-Ual-timore
contest with the Orioles

Lee Maye's three-run homer in
the seventh inning capped a five
run rally that brought the Braves
their victory over the Giants.

Fine Hospitality
Overwhelms Fans
Bv JERRY WAGGONER
FARMINGTON, X.M. Hospi
tality is an 11 letter word in this
Utile community of 24.000 which
stretches the word hospitality to
its full length and then some when
it comes to doing tilings up in a
big red ribbon.
And for any city, town or met
ropolitan' area which is planning
on throwing an alfair like this,
we suggest that they come and
take a few notes from this 12th
Annual Babe Ruth World Series
Tournament on how it slwuld be
done.
We've been here less than 24
hours at the time of this writing
and hospitality is all we've heard
and seen. Klamath Falls has sev
eral fans here following its ball
club and they have nothing but
raves about the way they've been
treated.
Coach Bob Moore, Harold How
ard and the Oregon team have
been raving about the hospitality.
the service and the totally unself
ish manner in w Inch the town has
turned out to make this tourna
ment a complete success. Babe
Ruth officials from the national
offices already are talking about
this tournament being perhaps the
first to finish financially in the
black.
Coach Moore can't say enough
about it. "This is the most fan
tastic reception we've ever re
ceived or even thought about. All
the big affairs Sunday were some
thing," he exclaimed.
But the kids aren't the only
ones receiving tlie hospitality.

Not only these things, but peo

a town of 3,500 in 1950. That oil
and gas brought in a great num
ber of people to make it a boom

oil and gas can't do all of the
beckoning. This hospitality cer
tainly must have had something
to do with it. And if this tourna

for another population explosion
