Final Set
Klamath Falls Babe Ruth team's
dreams of winning the Babe Ruth
World Series tournament came
crumbling down around the
broad shoulders of 14-year-old dob
Moore here Thursday evening
when he lost his control and the
Klamath team was eliminated
from the tournament by a rug
ged Oakland, Calif., nine, 10-2.
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

Granada Hills, Calif., and Strat

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

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
