The invention claimed is: 1. A method of producing a heat resistant resin container by stretch-molding a thermoplastic resin sheet while clamping a portion thereof that turns into a flange portion between a clamping metal mold having a recessed portion in a surface thereof that comes in contact with the sheet and a female metal mold with a clamping pressure of 4.5 to 12 MPa, further molding the thermoplastic resin sheet using compressed air into the shape of a female mold that is heated at a temperature not lower than the crystallization temperature of said resin followed by heat-setting, and reducing the pressure in the molded article so as to shrink into the shape of a plug having the shape of a final container to impart the shape thereto, followed by cooling, wherein said flange portion includes a part that is crystallized by orientation and a part that is not crystallized by orientation. 2. A method of producing a heat resistant resin container according to claim 1, wherein a primary molded article obtained by stretching a thermoplastic resin sheet by using the plug, is molded with the compressed air. 3. A method of producing a heat resistant resin container according to claim 1, wherein the thermoplastic resin sheet is an amorphous sheet of a thermoplastic polyester. 4. A method of producing a heat resistant resin container according to claim 1, wherein the temperature of the plug is not lower than a glass transition point of the thermoplastic resin but is not higher than the temperature of the female mold. 5. A method of producing a heat resistant resin container according to claim 1, wherein a primary molded article obtained by stretching said sheet by using a stretching rod, is molded with the compressed air. 6. A method of producing a heat resistant resin container according to claim 5, wherein the molding temperature of the plug is from near room temperature up to not higher than the crystallization initiating temperature of the thermoplastic resin. 7. A method of producing a heat resistant resin container according to claim 1, wherein said sheet has been shaped in advance so as to form a main heat-molding portion and a flange portion. 8. A method of producing a heat resistant resin container according to claim 1, wherein said plug has a shape capable of forming, on the container, a bead portion that protrudes inward of the container and a stacking portion positioned under said bead portion at positions corresponding to the barrel of the container. 9. A method of producing a heat resistant resin container according to claim 1, which comprises clamping by means of a clamping jig so that the portion that turns into a flange portion is crystallized. 10. A method of producing a heat resistant resin container according to claim 1, wherein said flange portion comprises a protrusion corresponding to the recessed portion of the clamping metal mold, which protrusion is not crystallized by orientation.
