White Sox And Giants Boost League Leads By FRED DOWN United Press International They say pitching wins pennants — and both the White Sox and Giants are getting it these days in pennant-winning style. The White Sox, of course, almost always have gotten fine pitching while San Francisco's hurling has been the team's big questionmark. Now, however. Jack Sanford has come along to bolster the Giant staff and it may be that he'll help just enough in the stretch to spell f-l-a-g. Both front-runners increased their leads Sunday, the White Sox boosting their American League margin to three games by whipping the Washington. Senators, 4-3 and 9-0, and the Giants increasing their lead to 1% games in the National League with a 4-3, 10-inning win over the Cincinnati Reds. Gerry Staley pitched shutout ball for 4 1-3 innings to win the opener for the White Sox and then Early Wynn fired a threehitter for his 15th victory of the season and the 264th of his career. Sanford, meanwhile, turned in his fourth straight victory with a powerful five-hitter. The Baltimore Orioles aided the White Sox’ cause by knocking off the second-place Cleveland Indians, 4-3, and the Milwaukee Braves helped the Giants by downing the second place Los Angeles Dodgers. 8-7. The New York Yankees went into a third-place tie with Baltimore by winning a marathon doubleheader from the Kansas City Athletics, 4-3 and 3-2, and the Detroit Tigers beat the Boston Red Sox, 7-3, in other AL games. Relief ace Elroy Face won his 15th straight game as the Pittsburgh Pirates defeated the Chicago Cubs, 5-3, and the Philadelphia Phillies whipped the St. Louis Cardinals, 8-3 and 4-2, in the other NL games. The White Sox won their 27th one-run decision when Jim Landis’ single, a wild pitch by Dick Hyde and an error by Roy Sievers enabled them to snap a 3-3 tie in the eighth inning of the first game. Earl Torgeson drove in three runs with two singles and a sacrifice, fly and Nelson Fox and Wynn each had two hits in the nightcap tor the White Sox. Harmon Killebrew hit his 35th homer for Washington. Orlando Cepeda homered in the 10th inning to give San Franciscc the victory after Jerry Lynch's 15th homer tied the score in the ninth. It was the fourth straight victory for Sanford since recovering from a fractured hand suffered on June 11. The loss went to Don Newcombe. Milt Pappas, brilliant 20-year old right-hander, scored his 12th victory for the Orioles when two Cleveland errors proved Jim Perry’s undoing. The Orioles pushed over the winning run after two out in the seventh when Bob Boyd singled. Joe Ginsberg walked and George Strickland let Brooks Robinson’s grounder go through him for an error. Joe Adcock’s three-run homer and Ed Mathews’ two-run circuit enabled the Braves to pile up an 8-0 lead but Bob Buhl finally needed ninth-inning relief help from Don McMahon to win his ninth game.

Bruton and Felix Mantilla contributed two hits each to the Milwaukee attack while "Wally Moon had three hits and Duke Snider had two including a homer for Los Angeles. Gil McDougald singled with the bases filled and two out to win the 14-inning opener for the Yankees and then Elston Howard walloped a homer to take the 11inning nightcap.

Ed Bouchee’s ninth-i nni n g grand slam proved the clincher as Gene Conley won his 11th game of the year for the Phillies, who then completed a sweep by rallying for two rims in the ninth inning of the nightcap. Dave Philley singled home the tie-breaking run in the second game and another run tallied on George Anderson’s sacrifice fly.

I • ' • 'I Finsterwald Is Winner Os Carlings Open CLEVELAND AuPI) — Dow Finsterwald, a transplanted Ohioan, made his second win of the year a big one by picking up $8,500 for a stirring come-from- • behind victory in the $25,000 Carling Open Sunday. Finsterwald, who graduated from Ohio University but now calls Tequesta, Fla., his home was three down with 208 at the end of 54 holes, but he shot a 3-under-par 68 for the 276 winning total. The slender 155-pounder, who pocketed a $5,000 bonus because he won the Carling Open in 1956, had a 3-under-par 32 on the front nine to wipe out the advantage held by Paul Harney, another former Carling champ, and Gene Littler, seeking his fifth tournament win of the year. Finsterwald, who knew “I was pretty close when I got out in 32," nearly missed a clear - cut victory when he bogeyed the short 194-yard 18th hole. The mistake almost allowed burly Mike Souchak, Grossinger, N.Y., to gain a playoff. “Mike had a chance to tie on 18 with about a 40-foot putt to sink, Finsterwald said. “But Mike missed it by inches,” he added. Souchak, who carded a 70 for a 277 total, had to be content and share runner-up money with Littler, of Singing Hills, Calif., who fired a 1-over-par 72. They each received $2,050. Harney, from Worcester, Mass., Doug Sanders, Miami Beach. Fla., and Dick Knight, San Diego. Calif., ended in a three-way tie at 278 and each received $1,333. minor AMERICAN ASSOCIATION Eastern Division W. L. Pct. G.B.

THE DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, DECATUR, INDIANA

i Notre Dame Games On TV Coast To Coast SOUTH BEND, Ind. < UPD-The TV show makes the TV personality. Notre Dame’s Athletic Director Moose Krause believes, so he has no doubt he’ll be an instant video success this fall. Krause will go network with the same show he’s been doing on television for five autumns, Notre Dame’s football games. But this time instead of appearing only before a metropolitan Chicago audience, his voice and personality will be carried on some 100 stations, coast to coast. “I’m sure the show will be a good one,” Krause said today. “We have a lot of fans and we’ve had a let of comment since it was announced our games would be on TV all over the country every Sunr day this fall. “This is the type of show that gives us coverage of the audience that wants to watch college footbal, and it'll be good for college football.” Krause and Harry Wismer, a veteran radio-TV figure, will share the Irish announcing duties. Wismer will do the play-by-play and Krause will handle the color. “Don’t put me in the movie class,” Krause said. “We think the football team is going to carry the show, and we’re just going to try to handle the game as if it’s being played right at the moment we’re on television, and make it as exciting as possible. “There are so many towns and stations that want to show our games that it’s going to be easy for all of us.” National appearance won’t be anything new to Krause. He’s an old hand at network radio and has been on national TV previously as a guest. It won’t be the first time he’ll be nationally prominent either, since he was an AllAmerican tackle at Notre Dame a quarter of a century ago and basketball coach of the Irish before he became full time athletic director. Elroy Face Nearing Major League Record CHICAGO (UPD—Elroy Face, the Pittsburgh Pirates’ relief specialist who has won 15 games in relief without defeat, Is only four games away from record book immortality. He needs that many more to match the record set by Rube Marquard with the 1912 New York Giants who won 19 straight for the 1912 New York Giants. Four more victories for Face will tie Carl Hubbell’s record of 24 straight wins over two years for the Giants. Face made it 15-0 for the seaion and won his 20th straight, including five victories of last season, with a three-inning stint against the Chicago Cubs Sunday. Olmedo Favored To Defeat Mike Green SOUTH ORANGE, NJ. (UPD— Wimbledon champion Alex Olmedo wks heavily favored to defeat surprising Mike Green of Miami Beach, Fla., today in the men’s singles final of the Eastern Grass Court tennis championship*. Olmedo, the top-seeded Davis Cup star from Los Angeles and Peru, advanced to the finals by scoring a hard-fought victory Sunday over fourth-seeded Earl Buchholz Jr., of St. Louis, Mo., 9-7, 7-9, 9- 6-2. Green beat 10-year-old Chuck McKinley of St. Ann, Mo., 10- 6-3, 11-9. #«• Yogi Berra Joins 300-Homer Club NEW YORK lUPIL-Yogi Berra is the first catcher and 16th player in major league history to join the 300-homer club. Berra hit the 300th homer of his career with two out in the ninth inning of Sunday’s nightcap with Kansas City to send the game into overtime. Other active major leaguers who have hit 300 homers are Ted Williams, Stan Musial, Duke Snider and Gil Hodges. Babe .Ruth leads the all-time parade with 714 not counting 15 in World Series competition. Flyweight Champion Keeps World Title TOKYO (UPD—World flyweight champion Pascual Perez of Argentina retained his title in his eighth defense today, scoring a unanimous decision over challenger Kenji Yonekura of Japan in a 15-round match. The 33-year-old Perez, displaying amazing stamina, was the aggressor all the way. The Argentine champion, weighing 107% pounds, scored the only knock-down of the fight by flooring Yonekura for a count of seven in the second round. Yonekura weighed 111% pounds. To Install Legion Officers Tonight Fourth district commander Harold Knoblauch will install the new officers tonight for Adams Post 43 of the American Legion. Elected in June, all new officers, including incoming commander Ambrose Spangler, will take office. Robert G. Smith is the outgoing commander. After the installation ceremonies, free refreshments will be served at the post home.

Pro Football Teams Edging In Spotlight , United Press International School's out this week for the National Football League’s rookies — and they’ll get the chance right away to prove how well they’ve learned their lessons. After three weeks of highly concentrated drills in the pro circuit’s training camps, the ’’kids” toss aside their books and try to remember all the various of--1 fensive and defensive maneuvers that have been crammed into their heads under game conditions. Starting on Tuesday night at Pittsburgh with the Steelers playing host to the Cleveland Browns, nine of the NFL’s 12 teams will see action in the first full week of exhibition play. On Friday, the year’s top college draft choices will draw their first pro pay checks after skirmishing with the champion Baltimore Colts in the 26th annual All-Star game in Chicago.

Moore And Durelle To Fight Wednesday MONTREAL (UPI) — World light-heavyweight champion Archie Moore and challenger Yvon Durelle ended their stiff training schedules today and concentrated on light exercises, a good indication that both were in peak condition for Wednesday night’s 15 round title fight at the Montreal Forum. With only 48 hours to go before the official weigh-in, both champion and contender confined themselves to light drills at the St. Jean Baptiste gym, the training headquarters shared by both. On Sunday, after Moore worked out lightly, Jack Kearns, Moore’s manager, announced that Ageless Archie had completed his training for the title re-match. Since the champion often has been known to work hard until fight day itself, his decision to stop now indicated peak condition and a weight hovering just around the 175 pound mark. Kearns told United Press International Sunday night that Moore weighed “around 174 and we don’t expect any trouble at the official weigh-in on Wednesday.” Durelle, also appeared to be around the weight limit. The fighting fisherman from Baie Ste. Arm, N. 8., completed his training during the week end and was scheduled for a light drill today and Tuesday. Durelle’s manager, Chris Shaban, said his boy is in far better condition now than a few days before the Dec. 10 fight when he floored Moore four times before being stopped in the 11th round.

Three Youths Drown As Boat Capsizes TOBINSPORT, Ind. (UPI) — Three Kentucky youths were drowned late Sunday night when a motorboat capsized in the Ohio River as they and two companions tried to Cross the stream from the Indiana shore. The dead were identified as Mary Jarboe, 17, J. T. Robinson, 21, and Billy Wilson, 19. all of the Hardinsburg, Ky., area. Two 20-year-olds survived the tragedy. They were Gene "Meador and Carl Jarboe, the . latter a cousin of the girl who drowned. Perry County Sheriff William Falls said the five had been visiting on the Indiana side of the river and started back toward Hardinsburg at about 11 p.m. in a small motorboat. The boat ran out of fuel about 50 yards from the Indiana shore. The occupants refilled the tank, started the motor and continued their trip. But the boat had gone only 30 feet when it suddenly rolled over on its side and dumped the five into the water. Meador and Jarboe told Falls their three companions “just disappeared” without a struggle. The
