caused postponement of the De-troit-Kansas City contest. The Cards snapped a five-game losing streak in their victory over the Redlegs but they got a scare in'the ninth when Cincinnati rallied for four runs. Reliefer Larry Jacksen pasted his fifth victory although Hoyt Wilhelm was the one who finally put the Redlegs* fire out. Rookie outfielder Frank Ernaga, playing in his first major league game, homered in his first trip to the plate for the Cubs and followed with a triple off loser Warren Spahn to help trip the Braves. Moe Drabowsky went the route for Chicago. The Phillies used home runs by Chico Fernandez, Rip Repulski, Granny Hamner and Willie Jones to hand the Pirates their 11th defeat in the last 14 games. Bob Friend, the loser, gave up the first three homers while Luis Arroyo was nicked for Jones' circuit. Rookie Jack Sanford recorded his fifth victory. Rocky Colavito drove in three of Cleveland’s four runs against Chicago even though he got only one hit, a single. His single drove in Bobby Avila with the. winning run in the seventh, and he also walked to force in a run in the first and hit a sacrifice fiy in the fifth. Bob Lemon started for Cleveland but was forced to leave the game with a severely strained left thigh in the seventh. Reliever Dick Tomanek was the winner and Bill Fischer the loser. Lapse Beata Orioles Pitcher Art Ceccarel'i’s eighth inning mental lapse enabled the Red Sox to score the winning run against the Orioles. With one out and runners on first and third in the eighth, Gene Stephens hit an easy grounder back to the mound. Ceccarelli tossed the ball to first, retiring Stephens but Dick Gernert raced home with the deciding run. Later, Ceccarelli explained he saw a “gray uniformed figure” holding third base. He thought it was Gernert. But it was Boston third base coach Jack Burns. Jim Brideweser hit his first major league homer in the fifth with two on to account for all of the Orioles’ runs. Ike Delock was the winner in relief of Frank Sullivan. Tom Sturdivant pitched a fourhitter to beat the Senators as the Yankees snapped out of their batting slump with 13 hits, including a two-run homer by Andy Carey. Southpaw Chuck Stobbs, the Washington starter, was- knocked out in the third inning and the loss brought his season record to 0-9. He has lost 14 straight games dating bach to last September 5.

Final Weekend Os Time Trials. At Speedway INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. m - About 40 streamlined roadsters were expected to be pushed to the starting line today as the final time trial weekend for next Thursday's 500-mile auto race opened under threatening skies. The parade of powerful cars was led by those of national champion Jimmy Bryan and Paul Russo but the weatherman held the trump card—just as he did last week. j Only nine cars were qualified in the rain-shortened first weekend and forecasters held out little hope for improved weather conditions. If the program goes off on schedule, Bryah will be first on the starting line, when the green flag is raised. The original forecast of possible showers by this afternoon or evening was revised to scattered showers day-long and the outlook for Sunday wasn’t any better. If rain prevents completion of the 33-car lineup for the annual Memorial Day classic, qualifications will be extended to Monday or Tuesday if necessary. Russo’s Novi was considered the best bet to shatter the one and four-lap records of 146.056 and 145.596 m.p.h. respectively set by Pat Flaherty last year. Russo steered his eight-cylinder supercharged machine around the course at a speed .of close to 145 mph Friday—fastest practice lap this spring. Teammate Tony Bettenhausen, in another Novi, did nearly as well, but the supercharger mechanism was damaged and the car was pushed back to the garage. From a weather standpoint, Friday was the best day in nearly two weeks. Forty cars took practice spins, but one was eliminated from further competition here this year. Rookie Tony Bonadies, Bronx, N. Y., lost control in the northwest turn and hit the wall tail first. Bonadies escaped serious injury but the car was too extensively damaged to be repaired for the race only five days away. It was the eighth crash since the track opened May 1, and the second time a car was damaged beyond repair for this year. Keith Andrews was injured fatally in a smashup May 15. The brand-new car he drove was owned by Italian ace Nino Farina, who then decided to watch this year’s event from the stands. Four Os Family Die As Train Hits Auto GAYLORD, Mich. (UP) — Four members of a Gaylord family were killed and a fifth was injured critically Friday night when their car was struck, by a train at a country crossing five miles north of here. The victims were Ernest D. Ostrander, 36, a sawmill worker; his wife, Loraine; their children, David, 9, and Patricia, 7. Only survivor was another child, Michael Ernest Ostrander, 5. He was hospitalized here in critical condition. EGREMONT, Mass. — W — Tax Collector Carl H. Warner finally has won his long battle for a pay cut.

Patterson To Make July Title Fight NEW YORK (UP) — "In'i* rounds I'll chase him into the canvas.” challenger Tommy (Hurricane) Jackson said today. Shrugging off the odds that make him a 4-1 underdog for his newly signed July title fight with heavyweight champion Floyd Patterson, Tommy recalled, “I was cornin’ on strong at the finish of 12 with him last year.’’ Nevertheless, odds-man Eddie Borden quotes young Patterson a firm 4-1 favorite, and a 7-5 chpice to knock out the Hurricane in their championship fight at lbe Polo Grounds, in the last week of July. Promoter Emil , Lence- also laughed down the odds and declared the Patterson-Jackson title fight such a terrific attraction" he may take a *175,000 gamble and show it on theatre-TV instead of home-TV.

Big Ten Makes Two Revisions In Aid Plan EVANSTON, Hl. (UP)—Big Ten faculty representatives, with two revisions in their revolutionary aid-to-athletes plan already behind them, planned today to work on still a third, designed to equalize student costs between member schools. As things now stand, a Big Ten university may only provide an athlete with enough to meet costs at that particular school. However, some conference schools are more expensive than others and thus actually would be giving more aid. Informed sources said they expected the faculty representatives to come up with some type of equalization plan during today’s wind-up session of their week-long meeting. Earlier, faculty, members approved two other modifications in the new athlete scholarship plan: —Outstanding students, those in the upper quarter of their high school class who stay in the upper quarter of their college classes, could receive tuition, room, board and books. The original plan called for tuition only to students in the upper third of their high school class who maintained B averages through college. —A staff member could visit prospective athletes off campus once the athlete accepts the aid offer of the school to which the staff member belongs. To be effective, however, both modifications must be approved by all conference schools. Meanwhile, Big Ten athletic directors authorized Commissioner Kenneth L-. Wilson to hire a full time "examiner," who would do nothing else but keep a weathereye on the athletic aid program and make sure everybody played according to rules. Wilson denieb that the examiner would be an “investigator." He said that with some 1,000 athletes involved in the aid program each year, a full time examiner was needed. The athletic directors also approved an agreement with NBC which, in effect, would mean that Big Ten teams will be seen on live regional television during eight Saturdays of the conference’s njne Wcdt SCfiSOD. The contract provides for televising conference football teams on four; regional dates this fall. NBC will be allowed to either select four Big Ten games or pick three conference games and a fourth between Notre Dame and a Big Ten school.

IKE (COBtiaeeC tna P«K* O»e> The United States has been thinking about trying to get agreement on a test inspection area in Siberia, Alaska, Canada and other arctic reaches. But U.S. officials have been secretive on whether or not they have finally agreed on this or any other zone in the free world to offer for Russian inspection. The United States is known to be ready to give up a small slice of its big weapons with nuclear capabilities under a disarmament agreement if Russia would do likewise. The weapons would be put in the custody of international inspectors.
