Midland squeaked by
Arkansas in Texas League play
last night after an eighth-inning
rally led by Wayne Tyrone and
Jerry Tabb.
Tyrone doubled and Tabb hit
his 12th homer of the season to
tie the game. Then Bill Drage
singled. Steve Clancy walked
and Joel Green singled to left to
drive in the winning run for
Midland.
In other games, Shreveport
downed El Paso three to one,
Victoria rolled seven to three
over San Antonio and Amarillo
won five to one over Alexandria.
The captins’ victory was their
fifth in six games against El
Paso. Shreveport’s attack was
led by Kent Jacobsen, with
three singles, and Rick Oliver,
who had two RBI doubles and a
single that scored the decisive
run. Winner Roger Alexander
gave up nine hits but worked out

Boxing's light heavyweight
champion, Bob Foster, has been

years. From time to time, a

Eric Raich failed in an attempt
for his fourth consecutive
shutout.
Amarillo’s southpaw Kyle
Hypes, now four and five, gave
up a home run to Mark Rhea for
the first hit of the game, but he
got back on top and surrendered
only two more hits to claim the
decision.
Arkansas put up a tough
battle against Midland, going
ahead five to two in the sixth on
a three-run homer by Mike Vail.
The league took Monday off
with no games scheduled.
Another challenger comes a

It is expected that Foster will

from being a sure thing is that
Foster is 35, and as Joe Louise
once said, “When you get to be
35, it all depends how you feel
when you wake up in the
morning.”
Tonight’s title fight will be
held in Foster’s hometown,
Albuquerque, New Mexico.
Foster is a sheriff’s sergeant in
Albuquerque, but he has no
need for a posse when he goes
into the ring wih a light
heavyweight. Foster has won
every fight he has ever had
against a 175 pounder. It’s the
heavyweights that give him
trouble. His record shows 51
victories and six losses, and all
defeats have been in over-the-
