Coach Bob Moore said at the time that he did not knoyv when the team would leave on its long journey back. "We don't know for sure. We would like (or the kids to see all of this wonderful coun try while they have the chance, so we won't hurry back." Moore and the team were nat urally disappointed in the loss which eliminated them from any further chance of glory. "But we are real proud of the kids. Ore- gan can be proud oi inem. Thev ,n aved the best tney Knew how and they didn't quit. We had a few tough breaks and the ly are proud of them and they did a good job. The best ever by a Klamath team in any tourna ment of this magnitude. They didn't quit, he related. This was the second loss for Klamath. The Oregonians won the opening game by downing Joplin, Mo 3-1 and then lost to Tulsa's hard hitting crew 9-2. The game Thursday was just a case of lost control and of a youngster trying too hard to hold his team up from defeat. Bobby Moore just struck a streak of wildness and that was that. Moore had the Oakland crew eating out of his hand until his control suddenly vanished like one of the New Mexico breezes which come and go like ghosts. "Bullet" Bob allowed the first man to face, him to hit a 'ground ball which was errored on by third sacker Mike McNary. He struck the next two batters and Bob Williams, throw to third caught fleet Alvin W1LLIAMSP0RT, Pa. -(UPI)-' Granada Hills, Calif., and Strat ford, Conn., enjoyed a day off to day before tangling Saturday for the championship ot the 17th an nual Little League World Series The California team romped into the finals with a 14-0 vie tory over Ismire, Turkey, Thurs-i day. Stratford whitewashed Du- luth, Minn., 5-0. Tom Berry pitched one-hit ball i Granada Hills' triumph. The Californians got off to a resound ing start when they scored eight runs in the opening inning on five walks, three hits and three errors. The big punch was sup plied by Hob Vaughn, Ken Kins man and Dave Sehnem, each of whom baited in two runs. Kins man hit a homer. Stratford also got fine pitching i its win over the Minnesota team. Ron DcFeo allowed only three hits and also scored a run. Joe Du.ak and Jay Julian con tributed timely hitting for Strat ford. Julian's single helped the Connecticut entry gain a run in the fourth and he and Duzak' Inshed out two-run singles to ac count for Stratford's our runs in the fifth. Three Hold 3-Shot Lead In Tourney AKRON, Ohio (UPI) Julius Boras, the 43-year-old U.S. Open champion who usually plays the tough courses the best, shared the first round lead in. the $55,000 American Golf Classic today with two dark horses-Johnny Pott and Miller Barber. They cut the long, exacting Firestone Country Club down to size Thursday when they shot three-under-par 67s. which was good enough to give them a three- shot lead, over two pre-tourney fa vorites, defending champion Ar nold Palmer and Jack Nicklaus. Between the three leaders and Palmer and Nicklaus came six others Jay Hebert. Bruce Crampton, Dave Hill, Gay Brew er, Al Geibcrger and Dave Man-. They all broke Firestone's 35-35 70 par with 6'Js. At even par 70 along with Pal mer and Nicklaus were former U.S. Open champion Ed Furgol, big George Bayer, Ted Kroll and Rex Baxter. Boros' brilliant round, in which lie had to overcome bad driving with superb putting, came as no surprise. For he is having the best year of his long career, with three tournament victories and a total ol sjo.gob in oltu-ial prize money behind only Palmer and Nicklaus. But neither the 27-year-old Pott nor tne Jl-ycar-old Barncr was given much of a chance over the back-breaking 7,165-yard Fire stone course. However, they played the first round as though they owned the layout. Both carded five birdies and two bogeys. The steady Boros Iwid four birdies against a single bogey although he hit erring drives on seven holes, five times hitting the rough and twice wind iitg up in the bunkers.

Moore whiffed the first two to face him in the second, gave up two walks and then got a ground out which forced tlie runner at third. He struck cut the first man to face him in the third and then began the walking ceremonies. Alvin Strane drew a walk and stole second again, his second ot three steals. Moore whiffed Alvin's twin brother Albert and then walked four successive men to force in the first run. He then changed positions with Greg Bros terhous at first. Greg, incidental ly, was the youngest player in the tournament. The first batter against Broster hous got an infield single. Alan Mezger made tlie stop and threw to second too late to get the run ner there.

He struck out the next batter. Klamath came back with two runs of its own in the bottom of the third. Arie DeGroot led off by ground out to shortstop in a play which could have been called safe as easily as it was called out. Rick Brosterhous singled. Mike McNary was hit by a Tom Brown pitch and Moore rattled -the right centcrfield fence with a double which scored Rick Brosterhous. McNary had to hold at third. He scored on a wild pitch. Lyman ground out for the second out and Williams walked but Alan Mez ger struck out to end the inning. Brosterhous took up where Moore left off in the strikeout department and kept the Califor nians fairly well handcuffed until the sixth when they finally solved his offerings and began teeing off. They got all 12 of their hits off Greg, but it must be pointed out that of those 12, four were oi the infield variety and on a bad hop single. All were singles. They LINGUAL SIGNALS WICHITA, Kan. (LTD - When catcher Ron Wasinger of the Rus sell American Legion baseball team realized that players on the Wichita National Guard team were stealing his signals in a re cent game, he used the language barrier to solve the problem. "Achtung!" he called to his bat tery mate, pitcher Kenny Dinkel. Thereafter, the catcher and pitch er kept their signals private by shoutinr! them to each other, in German. grabbing it with his back to the plate and on tlie run just before crashing into the left field fence. He was at the foot of the 320-foot sign. Moore and Lyman each had a pair of hits and Moore s double was the only extra base hit of the game. He drove another one to deep center which was caught. So ihe cry went out; wait until next year. Six of these boys will be returning to action next season and hope to go to the next World Series. ONLY IN TEXAS DALLAS, Tex. I UPI Natur ally, it would happen in Texas. A sign vhich its backers claim is the largest of its kind ever built in the United States has been put up in front of Dallas' Market Hall. The double-face sign is 50-feet high, 81-feet long, uses more than 3,000 50-watt high-intensity light bulbs, and 24 miles of wire to flash as many as 10 different messages on cither side. Market Hall is one of the nation's larg est exhibition and convention halls with 213,400 square feet of space. About 25,000 veterans of tlie Spanish American War are still living and their average age is 84, says the Veterans Administra tion. HUNTERS GO FARTHER BACK ' AND GET BACK ON A .
