(UP)— Mighty George Bayer, golf's biggest hitter, gives Ted Kroll a large slice of the credit for his maiden victory Saturday in the Canadian Open championship. “It was his help with my irons that has helped me more than anything,” Bayer said, referring to some instruction Kroll offered the golfing goliath at the Carling Open at Flint, Mich., four weeks ago. Bayer, i six-foot-five, 240-pound-er who played pro football briefly with the Washington Redskins, finished two strokes .in front of graying Bo Wininger with a 72hol escore of 271. Winniger, the Odessa, Tex., pro making his best showing in more than a year, fired a six-under-par 65 that left him just short of Bayer. It was the best round of the day over the 6,544-yard, par 35-36 —7l Westmount course and Wininger nearly pulled off a sensational upset. Playing four threesomes ahead of Bayer, Doug Fora and Frank Stranahan, Wininger was six strokes behind Bayer entering the final round with 202. He was three under for the front nine. More than 5,000 scientists and engineers and 250 million dollars are estimated to be involved in the International Geophysical Year investigations.

SEZ MM* VMM Hoad Impressive In Professional Debut FOREST HILLS, NY. (UP) - Lew Hoad opened his pro tennis career 'the way the ocean surf' hits the- beaches of his native Sydney—with a bang. Hoad, earning the first chunk of the record $125,000 contract he accepted from promoter Jack Kramer last week, featured Sunday’s play in the Tournament of Champions by whipping Frank Sedgman, 8-3, 6-4. 6-4. It was one of the most impressive debuts in the history of the pro game. Sedgman’s game doesn’t match that of Pancho Gonzales, the pro champion. But Frank, 29, is an experienced pro and was expected to give his young Australian countryman a bitter tussle. British tennis experts rated Hoad’s 56-mtaute title triumph at Wimbledon July 5 as one of the finest in the history of that classic. Lew stunned Sedgman and surprised Kramer by showing the same booming service and net attack Sunday. Gonzales, who had threatened not to play in the SIO,OOO roundrobin tournament if Hoad was an entry, opened his bid for the $2,300 first money by defeating Tony Trabert of Cincinnati, Ohio, 6-3, 3-6, 11-9, 6-3. Vic Seixas Wins Western Open Title MILWAUKEE (ffl — Vic Seixas of Philadelphia owns the oldest cup in tennis today because he won the men’s singles title in the Western Open tournament here. Seixas, seeded No. 1, overcame two-time titlist Bernard Tutz Bartzen, Dallas, Tex., No. 2, with his booming serve and a strong net game to win his third Western Open championship, 7-5, 6-2, 6-2, in the finals Sunday. K Yankees, Cubs Win In Morning League The Yankees whipped the Tigers. 13-3, and the Cubs edged the Redlegs, 10-9, in Morning league games today at Worthman field.

Phillies Whip Cardinals Two To Near Lead By JOHN GRIFFIN * United Press Sports Writer Maybe it’s about time somebody took those cocky Philadelphia Phillies seriously as pennant threats, because the ‘‘Whiz Kids” in the candy-striped suits are’ the hottest team in the National League and knocking on the door of first place. The Phillies now are only a halfgame behind the league - leading St. Louis Cardinals, whom they walloped in both ends of a Sunday twin bill, 6-2, 11-4. And they • can take over first place tonight by beating the Canfc. a The Sunday sweep behind "comeback” pitchers Curt Simmons and Jim Hearn was the Phillies' fourth dotage • header sweep of*the season and gave them 10 wins in the last 12 games. The Phils treated two Card hurling stars roughly. In the opener, they handed 16-year-old Von McDaniel the first whipping of his big league career after four wins, and in the nightcap they shelled out 10-game winner Larry Jackson in less than three innings. Rip Repulski's three-run homer in the first inning and Simmons’ tworun double in the fourth were the big jolts to bonus baby McDaniel, in the nightcap, the Phils broke a 3-3 tie with a four-run burst in the third inning and Hearn coasted to victory despite allowing 11 hits. Race Tightened -- - The Cards* double loss tightened the whole NL pennant race Gil Hodges’ two-run, ninth-inning homer gave Brooklyn a 3-2 win over Milwaukee, moving Brooklyn within 2Ms games of the top as Milwaukee edged to within one. ' And Cincinnati moved within 2% games as it ended a seven-game losing streak by blasting Pitts- ’ burgh twice, 9-6, 12-4. In the other NL game, the Giants beat the Cubs, 8-6, in 12 innings. The New York Yankees retained their three-game American League lead when they rallied for six runs in the ninth inning—four on a grand-slam homer by Bill Skowron and one on a homer by Tommy Byrne — to beat the sec-ond-place Chicago White Sox, 6-4, in the second game of a twin bill after lefty Billy Pierce beat them, 3-1, in the opener. In other AL games, the CleveS Indians moved within a halfe of third-place Boston by beating the Sox twice, 3-2 and 17-4; the Detroit Tigers swept the Baltimore Orioles, 10-2 and 7-6 in 10 innings, and Kansas City beat Washington, 11-3, in the second game after the Senators took the first, 4-1. “Dodger killer” Bob Buhl had his fourth straight, win over the Brooks wrapped up until he walked Gino Cimoli to open the ninth and then served a home-run pitch to Hodges. Red Schoendienst had homered for the Braves’ first run and Andy Pafko had doubled home the lead run in the tov of the ninth. . The Redlegs broke out of their slump with 33 hits, good for 51 bases, in crushing Pittsburgh twice. Ted Kluszewski topped the slugging with two homers in the

The Sox beat Bobby Shantz with two tie-breaking runs in the sixth inning. In the nightcap, Dick Donovan had the Yankees shut out until they exploded in the ninth but the loss was charged to Jim Wilson, who was tagged for Skowron’s and Byrne’s homers on successive pitches. Ted Williams homered in each game for the Boston Red Sox, giving him 25 and the AL lead by one homer over Mickey Mantie. But the Indians beat Boston in the first game by scoring two runs in the ninth- inning with the.help of Norm Zauchin’s throwing, "error.
