Junior Legion Team Loses To Celina, Ohio The Decatur Junior American Legion lost a tough. 6-5 ball game Thursday at Celina. 0., to a more experienced and heavy hitting ball club. The Ohioans proved Decatur’s match on the infield and bettered the local lads at bat and in the outfield. Sophomore Tom Grabill yielded only two hits in the first three innings, but some momentary fielding lapses, a base on balls and Celina’s keen batting eye caught up with him in the fourth as five runs crossed the plate. Gillig, who relieved Grabill in the sixth, allowed a single tally in the seventh with the score 5-3, Celina's, favor, on an error, a single, a fielder’s choice and line double by the substitute left fielder. Decatur scored- twice in the fourth to take an early lead on GrablU’s single and Jirh Gay’s walk. A double steal, a passed ball and a sacrifice fly accounted for the scoring. They added a single run in the sixth on an error and Marbach’* line single over third. The local Legion team added two in the eighth to come close and almost pulled it out in the top of the ninth. Kauffman walked to open the inning, batting for Gillig, and Bieberich sacrificed him to second. Cowan reached first and Gillig third, cm a dropped third strike. Kauffman, however, was picked es fthird by catcher Wolfe and Bob Walters struck out to end the ' threat.

Joe Campbell Leads Western Open Meet PITTSBURGH (UPI) — Joe Campbell, .pacing a phalanx, of par-busters on the challenging Pittsburgh Field Club course, said today “it’s still anybody’s race” as he took a one-stroke lead into the second round of the Western Open. The modest crew - cut swinger from Knoxville, Tenn., shrugged off comment about his five-under-par 65 Thursday in the opening round of the 825,000 event His total was one stroke less than the former course record set in 1953 by Chick Harbert in a National Open qualifying round. Campbell, former Big Ten golfing champion who turned pro only 15 months ago, blistered a 32 on the outgoing round and returned in 33. He reeled off seven birdie*. , b > “When I look around and see Dw»g-Ford-with • 46 pressing me, then I know it’s still anybody’s race,’ Campbell said. Ford, 36-year-old Canadian Open champion from Para’dise, Fla-, shot a six-over par 36 on the front nine but atoned with a blistering 30 on the return for his 66. All told, 13 competitors broke par. Tied for .third place with 67’s were Huston (Paddy) La Clair, Birmingham. Ala.; Mike Souchak, Grassinger, N. Y,; Arnold Palmer, Ligonier, Pa, and Burt Weaver, Beaumont, Tex. Bunched in the 68 circle were Bob Duden, Portalnd, Ore.; J. C. Goosie, Knoxville, Temg, and Fred Hawkins, El Paso, Tex. Rounding out the sub-par category were Joe Zakarian, Detroit; Julius Boros, Mid-Pines, N. C.; Bill Collins, Baltimore, and George Bayer, Lemont, 111. — all with 695. \ A former Purdue basketball star, Campbell is only five-seven and weighs 180. But he cut MS taller competitors down to size with sharp putting. He made three: seven-footers, two four-footers and a 40-footer for todies. Campbell has won 37,826 in 21 tournaments this year. He fulfilled a prediction made by Palmer before the tourney opened. The Ligonier pro said “somebody will set «• new course record” when he saw the lush greens.. Top prize in the 72-hole medal event which winds up Sunday is 35,000. ■ CQWTMVtS -Dtverce ■ — •* A' complaint for divorce was filed in Adams circuit court in the vacation session by Donna J.

Giants Edge Into Lead In National Loop By FRED DOWN United Press International Elroy Face is still flyin’ high—and Willie Mays is flyin’ low again. Take those facts and toss in a brilliant 11-inning relief performance by Los Angles' Roger Craig and you have the big reasons teams in the National League first division feel like college kids In a telephone booth. San Francisco is the new “top dog” with a 47-35 record followed by Los Angeles a half game “down,” Milwaukee third one full game behind and Pittsburgh fourth only 3% games from the leader. The latest shuffle occurred Thursday when the Giants spoiled Fred Hutchinson’s debut with a 3- victory over the Cincinnati Reds-'and the Dodgers knocked the Braves from first to third place with a 4-3 win in 13 innings. The Pirates, coming from behind for the 27th time this season, edged out the Chicago Cubs, 4-3, in 10 innings. The Chicago White Sox moved to within a game of first place in the. American League when they defeated the front - running Cleveland Indians, 4-3, and the Boston Red Sox walloped the New York 14-3, to drop the. Three Twi-Nighters There..alSb were three twi-night doubleheaders — St. Louis downing Philadelphia, 6-2, after an 11-0 defeat, in the National League and Baltimore beating Washington, 8-0 and 5-0, and Kansas City defeating Detroit, 5-0 and 4- in the American League. Face,Pittsburgh’s sensational relief ace, tied a 49-year-old club record when he received credit for his 13th straight victory of the season. The 155-pound righthander, near goat erf Tuesday’s All-Star game, yielded a scoretying single to Sam Taylor in the Cubs’ ninth but became the winner when pinch - hitter Harry Bright singled home the decisive run in the 10th. . Face’s 13-game winning streak is six short of the NL and major league mark set by Rube Marquard in 1912 and his two-year string of 18 straight victories also is six shy of the mask set by Carl Hubbell in 1936-37“ ' ' Mays, hero of the All - Star game, opened" thfe ninth inning of a 2-2 tie 'game with a single JAd then took off like 4 guy on a motorcycle. San Francisco’s “golden boy” promptly stole second on relief pitcher Tom Acker of the Reds and thenscored on- Daryl Spencer’s infield hit. Dodgers Tag Spahn Wally Moon doubled and Rip Repulski singled to give the Dodgers the run that tagged Mil- • waukee’s Warren Spahn with his ninth loss and dumped the Braves into third place. Roger Craig, taking over in the third inning, shut out the Braves on three hits for the last 11 innings. Jim Landis drove in three runs with a two-run Single and a sacrifice fly and Bubba Phillips homered for the White Sox who beat the Indians for the ninth time in. 13 meetings. Bobby Avila knocked in four runs with two homers and a single and Ted Williams drove in three with a homer and a double to lead a 14-hi.t Boston at- ’ tack that totaled 30 bases. Gene conley pitched a sevenhitter for his third shutout and Gene Freese hit his third grand slam of the season to lead the Phillies’ 17-hit attack in their first game but the Cardinals earned a Split cm the seven-hit hurling of Larry Jackson.

Welter Title Bout On TV Tonight - PORTLAND, Ore. (UPI) — The biggest crowd in Oregon fight history will jam the Portland Meadows race track this afternoon to see home-town hero Denny Moyer, a 19-year-dd babyfaced slasher, attempt to wrest the world welterweight crown from Don Jordan. The odds-makers have Installed Jordan as 12-5 favorite, but in the light of recent developments on bash boulevard, these odds may drop before the gong sounds at 6 p.m. p.s.t. (10 p.m. e.d.t.). With Floyd Patterson losing his heavyweight title to Ingemar Johansson and Alphonse Halimi shorn of the bantamweight title by Jose Beccara, local hero-wor-shippers believe that maybe good things run in a series of three and that Moyer can make the grade against Jordan. The 15-round bout will be televised nationally. Promoter Tommy Moyer, Denny’s uncle, predicts a crowd of at least 8,000 will pay upwards of 380,000. Biggest gate in the history of the state was 366,581 for a battle between Harry (Kid) Matthews and Rex Layne, then both heavyweight contenders, a few years back. • While Moyer is unbeaten in 20 professional fights, the belief is that he can win only if the battle goes the distance. While DenIvy has gone more than Ijjrptinds before, he is in tip-top shape. But he lacks the punch to get it over with fast. His record shows only four knockouts. Jordan, a surprise champion who was anything but a tiger until he got champion Virgil Akins in the ring, has gone 15 rounds in two of his last three outings with Akins. He is six years older than the challenger. Jordan never could put a win streak together before he became the champ. He has a record of 45 wins and 10 losses.' He has scored 14 knockouts, which indicates he carries a slightly more powerful punch. No matter how it turns out, Jordan will have a good pay-day. He’ll receive a cash guarantee of $70,000. Moyer is supposed to get 12% per cent of the gate, this would leave the promoter in the hole — except that he will get 335,000 from radio and TV rights. International Fair Visited By Kozlov CHICAGO (UPI) — Soviet First Deputy Premier Frol R. Kozlov ' wound up a three-day sampling of ' life in the midwestern United States today with a visit to the International Trade Fair. Fair officials said they hoped a ' tour of the exhibits, containing products from all parts of the ’ world, would be an eye-opener for ’ the Russian official. , The trade fair’s motto is ’ “World peace through world ; trade.” Richard Revnes, manag- ' ing director of the fair, said fair officials wanted Kozlov “to see ' the interchange of experience and ideas which is creating better un- ' derstanding among nations.” Kozlov and his party were to k leave* by plane for Pittsburgh after spending 30 or 45 minutes viewing the two miles of exhibits. The Russian official got a look at widely differing aspects of life in Mid-America Thursday. He toured rich corn belt country 55 miles southwest of Chicago, then had a night out at an exclusive ' North Shore country club and ' music festival. He pulled his ear lobes, scratched his nose and lightly applauded most of the numbers by the Chicago Symphony Orchestra at the Ravinia Music Festival but leaped to his feet and led a standing ovation when pianist Byron Janis concluded the program with Tchaikovsky’s First Piano Concerto. Kozlov, who heard Van Cliburn play the number during his triumphant Moscow appearances, diplomatically refused to say how he thought Cliburn and Janis compared. The Russians, who faced 100 placard-waving pickets early in the day at City Hall, were picketed again at Ravinia and the swank Indian Hill Country Club at Wilmette. A single picket at the entrance to the music festival grounds carried a sign reading: “Keep Kozlov and company from infiltrating.” \ /) “I know toe ball is muddy and your glove is brand new, ■ but stop trying to catch with your bare hand!”
Major League Leaders Hold Joint Session CHICAGO (UPI) Major league executives met in joint session today to tackle such prob- > lems as inter-league trading and financial help to the struggling minor leagues. Both matters came under heavy discussion in separate American and National League meetings Thursday, but it remained for a vote of representatives of toe 16 clubs' to approve or reject the proposals. A vote to approve inter-league trading would permit clubs to cross league barriers in player swaps beginning in a post-season NoV. 23-Dec. 15 period this year. It would eliminate the necessity of obtaining waivers. Raising and disbursing financial funds to rescue the minors was a weightier problem facirfg the dub owners. This was likely to be handed over to a committee for further study rattier than receive outright approval or rejection. The club owners tuned up for today’s session by voting Thursday to start their 1960 seasons one-week apart and then agreeing to observe the same suspended game rule in both leagues. Both leagues opened a week earlier this year, but American League club owners called the experiment quits and agreed to return to an April 19 opening next season. The far-flung National League voted to stick with an April 12 inaugural. Both leagues, however, will close .simultaneously on Oct. 2. National League President Warren Giles said the lower mileage between stops in the senior loop requires “that we have 172-174 days to satisfactorily play 154 games.” The American League adopted the same suspended game rule in force in the National circuit, thus filling a void existing since 1953 when the American League dub owners tried out such a regulation and dropped. ’rtie rule provides that games hatted before nine innings because
