ABC ffurnals Ended On Sunday FORT WAYNE, Ind. (INS) — Practically the last’ two thirds of the American Bowling Qongrea tourney at Fort Wayne was anticlimax.

Pfeiffer’s Beet, or Detroit, won the team championship with a 3.136 pin total, which team member Fred Bujack got borne free with the all event crown at 1,993. Lefty Eddie Gerxine, of Milwaukee, slammed down 738 pins in the first week of the tourney which has been rolling since last March and that was good enough for the singles crown. Harry Zoeller and George Pactopls, of Wilkes Barre, Pa., took the doubles crown with a total 1.365. They took large cnunks of a prise melon that touted 9428,333 for the winners of the 31,000 bowlers who stepped up to the firing line at the 38 new alleys that crowded professional basketball and hockey out of the Fort' Wayne Coliseum in March. Bowlers from 42 states, the District of Columbia, Alaska, Canada and Saudi Arabia put in appearances during the meet Many will return in 1966 for the ABC mar Mhon at Rochester, N.

'i "fe ll " 1 - Pinch Homer Gains Chicago Cubs A Split NEW YORK (INS) — The world champion New York Giants are 12 games on the wrong side of the National League tracks today, partly 7 because of a managerial "mistage” by their practically peerless pilot, Leo Durochfer. Leo, tne guiding genius who simply refused to make a “booboo” in 1954, contributed to his team's growing frustations with, a wrongy Sunday that forced the Giants into a» split wth the Chicago Cubs. The Giants had beaten Stan Hack’s miracle men, 3 to 2 in the opener as Sal Maglie won his seventh straight and Dusty Rhodes sent in the winning run with a pinch single in the eighth. It seemed like olft times — at least last season’s times. The second game went 'to the pesky Bruins, 3 to 1, on a two-out three-run homer in the ninth by pinch swinger Frank Baumholtz. Hack, whose surprising second place team remained within 7Vk games and earshot of the Brooklyn Dodgers, thus became a genius. And here's how Leo the Lip goofed: Jim Hearn had a 1-0 advantage oVer Sam (No Hit) Jopes for eight innings, thanks to a fifth inning homer by Bobby Hofman. Hearn got the first two Bruins in the ninth before Ernie Banks touched him for a single and he walked Dee Fondy. Hack waved the wand for Baumholtz and the Giant righthander served Frankie two wide pitches. With the count 2-0, Durocher moved. He withdrew Hearn and called on relief specialist Marv Grissom. The veteran righty made one pitch—a screwball — and Baumholtz lined it into the right field seats. Jones, who struck out 11 while holding the Giants to six hits, won his sixth game and Hearn was charged with his sixth loss. The Dodgers came back to whip the St. Louis Cardinals. 10 to 6. after the Redbirds won the opener, 9 to 4, with five rhfis in the tenth inning. , Milwaukee's Braves beat the Philadelphia Phillies, 5 to 4, and Philadelphia led, 4 to 0, in the second game, suspended after 6Mt innings because of the Sunday curfew. Cincinnati defeated Pittsburgh. 5 to 1. to gain a split after the Pirates won the opener, 7 to 6.

The New York Yankee American League lead remained at tour games as the Bombers split with the Chicago White Sox. The Box took the first game, 5 to 3, and the Yanks copped the second, 3 to 2, in ten innings. • Washington bested Cleveland, 6 to 4, but the Indians bounced back to win the second game, 6 to 3. r The* other AL chjbs also divided. Detroit blanked Baltimore, 10 to 0, ' and the Orioles edged the Tigers. 6 to 5. Kansas City won the opener, 5 to 4, but the Boston Red Sox rebounded to win the finale, 4 to 3. The twin bill jammed activity produced a total of 32 homers. ig - — Indiana All-Star Team Is Completed INDIANAPOLIS (INS) — The 10-man Indiana prep basketball team, complete with two alternates, wwa set today for the annual showdown with Kentucky prep stars. The two teams will meet in Indianapolis at Butler Fieldhouse, June 13, and at Louisville, June 20. Profit from each game will go to benefit the blind. 1 Two high - jumping rebounders rounded out the 10 man squad of Hoosier hotshots — Jerry Schofield, 6-3 of Columbus, and Jim Loer, 6-2.5, of Indianapolis Shortridge. Schofield, a 18.8 shooter with 27 against Crispus Attacks in the regionals, is the first Columbus player to be named to the squad. Loer follows Shortridgers Dave Strack. 1941, and Fred Krampe, 1939. Sheddrick Mitchell, of Attucks, and Larry Alexander, of Connersville, were named first and second alternatives, respectively, for the game. They’ll dress only in the basence of a regular. Coach Angus Nicoson must start the game with these men selected by sports writers and 'casters in this order as the top five prep hardwood stars in Indiana: Wilson Eison. Gary Roosevelt’s Mr. Baskebtall; Jim Henry, of New Albany; Willie Merriweather, of state champion Crispus Atutcks; Don Bates, of Jasper, and Charles Lyons, of Fort Wayne North. Rounding out the second five wtih Schofield and Loer are Gene Flowers, of Muncie Central; Jim Butcher, of Kokomo, and Ron Loneski, of Hammond Noll.
