Delock Tosses Eighth Win Os Year For Bosox By MILTON RICHMAN ( United Press International ’ « (*■ 1 • They like Ike in Boston. Small wonder they do when you take a look at Ike Delock’s perfect 8-0 record for the Red Sox this season plus his nifty 1.80 earned run average. Delock, a one - time reliever turned starter, stacks up as the best thing that has come out of the Boston bullpen since Ellis Kinder. Manager Mike Higgins gave the stocky fastbailer his first start of the season June 26 and it has turned out to be a master move. \lke has won four starts' in a row since then, his latest one ibeing an eight-hit 6-1 victory over the Chicago White Sox Friday. A fellow who could easily run on the same ticket with him in = Boston is Jackie Jensen, who drove in four of the runs against the White Sox with his 26th homer and a single. Jensen now had 76 RBl’s and his home run .total equals his highest output for any' one season since he broke into the majors eight years ago. Dick Gernert also homered off loser Jim Wilson. Yankees Defeat Tribe Bob Turley, treated roughly in the All-Star game, bounced back to register his 13th victory when he nitched the Yankees to an lb 3 triumph over the Indians. The Yankees made it easy for Turley by rapping Ray Narleski and two relievers for 14 hits, in- _ eluding Mickey Mantle’s 22nd home run of the season. Doubles by Tony Kubek and Bill Skowron featured a four-run rally in the fifth and they put together another four-run cluster off Jim Constable in the seventh. Vic Power and Larry Doby homered for the Tribe. Ed Fitz Gerald’s single with two out in the ninth climaxed a two-run rally that gave the Senators a 6-5 win over the Tigers. The Senators trailed 5-4 going into the ninth, then loaded the bases against loser Bill Fischer, and scored the tying run on a forceout Hank Aguirre relieved Fischer and was tagged for Fitz Gerald’s game - winning single. Dick Hyde, Washington's sub-marine-ball reliever, picked up his fifth victory after Detroit blew a 5-1 lead. Rain washed out the BaltimoreKansas City game. Phillies Cooled Sam (Toothpick) Jones struck out 10 batters as the Cardinals cooled off the Phillies with a 62 victory. The Cards backed up' Jones with a 13-hit attack, including a third inning homer by Wally Moon that broke a' 1-1 tie and two triples and a double by Ken Boyer. Jones held the Phils to eight hits in posting his sixth triumph and increased his leagueleading strikeout total to 108. Harry Anderson homered for Philadelphia. Jack Sanford was t agg e d with his seventh loss against six victories. The Milwaukee Braves got a decatdr Gv I SUN. & MON.

lecture from manager Fred Haney about too much partying and then went out and defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers, 7-4, to protect their I*4 game lead in the National League. '’ Haney delivered his warning after he learned that four of his players had attended a Hollywood party in which several persons were pushed into a swimming pool. That all took place while Haney was managing the NL AllStars in Baltimore. But the Braves dunked the Dodgers nicely Friday even through they had to survive a bitter rhubarb before Joey Jay got credit for the victory. Dodger starter Don Drysdale, who hit a homer in his own cause, had a 4-1 lead until the sixth when the Braves put runners on first and second. Frank Torre then hit a ball down the right field line that a spectator reached out and touched near the bullpen. Originally, the umpires ruled it a ground rule double, permitting one runner to score. Then they changed their minds and allowed two runners to come in. IQ-Minute Rhubarb An argument raged for 10 minutes during which Dodger General Manager Buzzy Bavasi came out on the field to argue with the men in blue. When play was re- , sumed, Johnny Logan singled home the tying run and the i Braves went on to win with three ■ runs of reliefer Johnny Klipp- . stein. Eddie Mathews and Carl Furillo each hit homers. f Orlando Cepeda’s three - run homer in the 12th inning off Hal Jeffcoat wrapped up a 7-4 win i for the San Francisco Giants over ; Cincinnati. i The homer was Cepeda’s 17th ■ and it gave Ramon Monzant, the Giants’ fourth pitcher, his fifth • victory. San Francisco had a 4-0 i lead going into the eighth but the • Redlegs scored three runs with I the aid of Frank Robinson’s two- : run homer and Robinson singled i home the tying run in the ninth. • I Dick Stuart, just up from the minors, clouted a grand - slam homer in Pittsburgh's 7-2 deci- ■ sion over Chicago. I It was only Stuart’s second appearance since being brought up from Salt Lake City of the Pacific Coast League earlier this week. In his first appearance on Thursday, he hit a three - run homer against the Cubs. His wallop Friday came off Moe Drabowsky in a five-run fifth inning that paved the way for Ronnie Kline’s eighth victory. To insure it, Frank Thomas belted his 25th homer with one on in the seventh. Ernie Banks hit his 22nd for the Cubs. Major League Leaders National League G. AB. R. H. Pct. Musial, S. L. 71 256 37 93 .363 Mays, S.F. 78 313 68 109 .348 Dark, Chicago 63 258 30 85 .330 Flood, S.

Dick Stuart Adds Power To Pirate Lineup CHICAGO (UPD-Dick Stuart, past master of four-bagger clouts in the minors, has proven he can wallop Big League pitching, too. The rookie first baseman for the Pittsburg Pirates pounded two home runs in his first two days in the majors—the latest of the grand slammer variety which produced four of the runs in the Pirates’ 7-2 thumping of the Cubs Friday. Stuart, 25, a 200-pound six-footer who hit 31 homers in 78 games for Salt Lake City this season in the Pacific Coast League, and once hit 66 homers in one season, said he has a simple batting secret: "I just keep swinging,” he said. “I knew that one was going over the fence," he said of his bases-loaded homer off the Cubs’ Moe Drabowsky. Stuart’s homer, landing in the left-field bleachers, scored Bill Hall, Bill Virdon, and Gene Baker. Wasn’t So Sure “I wasn’t so sure of th&t one Thursday. I was f surprised to see that go out of the park,” he said of his first major league home run in his first major league game. . Stuart, a husky crew-cut athlete from San Carlos, Calif., started both games in place of Ted Kluszewski. who may face a serious threat for his job at first base. Stuart was called up from Salt Lake City Thursday after the Pirates sent R.C. Stevens down to the Pacific Coast League club. Pirates Manager Danny Murtaugh said “it was a happy switch and I just have to be satisfied after the way it turned out. If Stuart can keep hitting the long ball, I’ll,,continue to be satisfied.” Manager Murtaugh Satisfied Murtaugh said he was also satisfied, so far, with Stuart’s fielding. The rookie hit well for the Pirates in spring training, but his work afield left something to be desired, leading to his transfer to Salt Lake City before the season’s start. Murtaugh said Stuart hasn’t had any difficult chances since his return, but added that he is ‘greatly improved” over his springtime performance. Stuart’s 31 homers in the PCL included three grand slammers. His baseball career goes back to 1951, when he started with Modesto in the California State League as an outfielder. He played with Atlanta in the Southern Association, Lincoln, Neb-, in the Western League, and did a two-year hitch in the Army before joining Hollywood, whose franchise was taken over by Salt Lake City.

Gaspar Ortega Wins In TV Boul Friday NEW YORK (UPI) Welter--1 weight contender Gaspar Ortega, who upset Mickey Crawford in a 1 strangely scored TV bout, was war-whooping for a $300,000 title '■ fight today. ‘ Co-manager Nick Croby said the 1 lanky Mexican Indian from Tiajuana could draw a $300,000 gate ■ with champion Virgil Akins at Los 1 Angeles in September because of J his split 16round decision Friday night over Crawford at Madison ■ Square Garden. Crawford, a fighting commercial artist from Saginaw, Mich., was a 2-1 choice because of his four straight victories this year. But the two judges favored Gaspar, 62 and 64. Then referee Mark Conn provided the widest ' discrepancy in many, many moons by putting Crawford ahead, 7-3. Mickey, . who weighed 147% pounds to Ortega’s 147, got the nod from the United Press International 5-62. However, a pool of 13 writers at the ringside favored Gaspar, 8-5. Apparently it was a very difficult bout to score because of the boxers’ sharply contrasting styles. Gaspar, ranked second by The Ring magazine and seventh by the NBA, forced the action throughout the threw a lot of longrange punches, most of which missed or were blocked. Crawford, much the more accurate, was in and out with repeater left hooks and punishing flurries. Mickey was rated ninth by The Ring and fourth by the NBA. Each slipped to the canvas once but there were no knockdowns. Ortega, 22, staggered Crawford, 24, with a left hook to the chin in the ninth. DENTAL OFFICE of Dr. J. E.

Towering Barry Mac Kay of Dayton, Ohio, and thick-legged Sammy Giammalva of Houston, Tex., drew the duobles assign- , ment. against Bob Bedard and Don Fontana of the undernamed Canadian squad. i Whitney Reed of Alameda, Calif., gave the U.S. a 2-0 lead in the best-of-five series when he turned back Bedard, 9-7, 6-2, 6-4, in their rain-delayed singles encounter Friday, Mac Kay beat Fontana, 6-1, 6-2, 7-5, in Thursday’s opener. Another Yank victory today would sink the Canadians and move the U. S. into the zone finals. And even Lome Main, the dedciated Canadian captain, conceded his boys were bucking tremendous odds. “All I can say,” Main shrugged, “is that we sure as heck have to win three in a row. Bedard and Fontona will try to get us started in the duobles today. They’re the Canadian champions aud if they can’t do it, then I guess it just can’t be done.” TAX (Continued rrom page one) ment. It would allow them to defer payment of income taxes until the age of 65 on earnings placed in special retirement funds or annuities. Taxes likewise would be deferred on earnings of the invested funds.

Jackie Burke Sets Hot Pace in Meet WETHERSFIELD, Conn. (Uf*l) —Driving and putting in his oldtime style, Jackie Burke, Jr., is setting a hot pace in the Insurance City Open Golf Tournament. The Texas-born pro from Kiamesha Lake, N. Y., turned in his second straight sub-par round Friday to reach the halfway mark of the 72-hole tournament with a 130 total and a four-stroke lead over his nearest rivals. Burke, who had tied Charles Sifford of Philadelphia for the first round lead with an eight-under-par 63, turned in a 67 in his second trip around the Wethersfield Country Club course, Sifford couldn't keep up with the curly-haired Irishman, settling for a 73 and a 136 aggregate. Tied fob second place at 134 were George Bayer of San £'abriel, Calif., Masters champion Arnold Palmer of Latrobe, Pa., and Dow Finsterwald of Tequesta, Fla. Finsterwald picked up the most ground among the contenders in the second round by carding a 66. Palmer had a 68 and Bayer posted a 69. Al Balding of Erindale, Ont., was all alone in fifth place with a 135, while Paul Harney of Worcester, Mass., Gordon Jones of Alliance, Ohio, Gene Littler of San Diego, Calif., and Bill Casper of Apple Valley, Calif., were bracketed with Sifford at 136. Espionage Conviction Os Abel NEW YORK (UPI) — The U. S. Court of Appeals Friday unanimously upheld the espionage conviction of Col. Rudolph Ivanovich Abel, one of the highest-ranking Soviet spies ever seized in this country. Abel, 55, was sentenced to 30 years in prison last November, five months after his arrest in a Brooklyn studio where he had masqueraded as a photographer. Abel was accused of being the key figure in a Soviet espionage ring which allegedly conspired to gather and transmit defense information to- the Soviet Union.
