Junior High, New Haven To Play Tonight New Haven’s junior high footbal team visits Decatur this evening for a resumption of a football game last fall. That game, at New Haven, resulted in a tie and both teams plan to simply take up where things left off last year. The contest will start at 6:30 o’clock tonight under Worthman field lights following another clash between the reserves of the Colts and the Rams, starting at 5 p. m. Diversified Attack Decatur will base its hopes for victory on a passing attack which is as diversified as many a professional team. Lacking good team speed, especially in the backfield, Decatur will take to the air quite a bit to offset the scoring potential of New Haven s corps of fleet backs. Any member of the starting backfield and a few of the Reserves have been working on various plays and any play is liable to wind up as a pass. In the southwest college conference, they call this style of wide open football, "circus.” In Decatur it's merely referred to as “necessity." The starting offensive team for the local junior high squad will find Max Elliott and Terry Myers at the ends, Nathan Gonzales and Ted Kleinheinz at tackles, Manuel Ybarra and John Eichenauer at gaurds, and Bill Smith at center. At quarterback, Johnny Custer and Dave Anspaugh will alternate, with Ed Kohne at fullback and Gregg Ladd and Joe Hess at the halfback slots. Tagged for considerable duty on offense will also be Dick Ortiz and Manuel Gonzales at halfback, with linemen Ken Riffle, Joe Hazelwood, Jerry Egley, Steve Sheets, Willie Putteet, and Dave Wynn seeing their share of action. Defensive Team The defensive alignment will find the five-man line consisting of Riffle and Elliot at the ends; Gonzales and Kohne at tackles; and Wynn at center. The four linebackers will be Willie Putteet, Manny Ybarra. Egley, and HazelWood. The backfield defenders will be Hess and Manny Gonzales. The Decatur units will use the high school’s multiple offense of split-T and single wing attacks Starting time for the reserve game I is 5 p m with the junior high boys ■ tangling at 6:30 p. m.

Dodgers Back Info Tie For National Lead By MILTON RICHMAN United Press International It's all tied up again, but don’t go ' away—someone’s gotta win that National League pennant soon. Forget about those first 151 games and keep an eye on the next three. They should settle something. The battling Dodgers knotted up the whole business again when they climbed into a first-place tie with the Braves by blanking the Cardinals, 3-0. Milwaukee lost sole (possession of the league lead by I bowing to Pittsburgh, 5-4. And the stumbling Giants pracI tically bowed out with a 9-8 loss ito the Cubs in 10 innings. It was the slumping San Franciscans’ fifth straight defeat and it put them two games behind both the Dodgers and Braves. Each of the three contenders has three games remaining. The odds are still with the Braves, first because they play their last three games at home and second, because the games are with he last-place Phillies. Limited To Five Hits The Dodgers play their last three at Chicago, and the Giants their final three at St. Louis. Roger (Skinny) Craig was the man who pitched Los Angeles up to the top rung with Milwaukee. He limited the Cardinals to five hits last night for his 10th victory in 15 decisions.
Los Angeles got to loser Bob Miller for one run in the first inning on Charlie Neal’s double and Duke Snider’s single. That was all Craig really needed but he got two more runs in the eighth on Don Demeter’s pincn double with the bases full.
Bob Skinner and Ronnie Kline of the Pirates put the brakes on the Braves, who had won 13 out of 16 before Tuesday night. Skinner's single in the eighth off loser Joey Jay broke a 4-4 tie and Kine stopped Miwaukee on six hits during the eight innings he toied to gain his 11th victory. The Braves got one more hit off Eroy Face in the ninth. Neeman Gets Homer Skinner's game-deciding singe, which followed singles by Bill Virdon and pinch hitter Rocky Neson, came after Eddlie Mathews had tied the score by hitting his 44th homer with one on in the top of the eighth. Cal Neeman took care of the Giants when he belted a two-out, 10th inning homer for the Cubs, off rookie Eddie Fisher. To give you an idea how things were going, Fisher was the seventh Giant pitcher. Neeman, who had hit only two other homers all season, was one of six players to hit for the circuit. Wilie Mays hit two, his second one coming in the ninth and tying the score at 8-8. Orando Cepeda aso homered for the Giants whie Ernie Banks socked his 44th for the Cubs, and teammates Lee Was and George Don Eston scored his second victory in as many days and his 10th of the season. Cincinnati and Philadelphia were idle. White Sox Rested Over in the American League, where the White Sox already have clinched the pennant, they enjoyed a day of rest along with the second-place Indians. In the three games played, the Yankees beat the Senators, 5-4; the Red Sox downed the Orioles, 4-0, and the Athletics defeated the Tigers, 7-6. The Yankee victory guaranteed them at least a tie for third place and it was recorded by rookie John Gabler in relief. Hector Lopez helped Gabler to his first major league win with his 22nd homer. Bob Alison. Washington’s candidate for rookie-of-the-(year honors, slammed his 30th.

Alcoholics Vary By Geographical Areas By HORTENSE MYERS United Press International INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) Alcoholics may differ from one geographical area to another, in the view of Dr. Fred E. Lawrence, director of Indiana's only state alcoholism clinic. Lawrence said that the "average alcoholic" as depicted by two surveys made at the Central Indiana Alcoholism clinic, Indianapolis, seems to differ from he results of certain other surveys in other parts of the United States. “These two surveys are as close as we have come to any valid picture of the Midwestern alcoholic. We sometimes wonder if we are not dealing with a different group than those dealt with in other sudies." Lawrence said he and his staff “have the feeling the Midwestern alcoholic is not as sick as those in some other areas." He noted that the two studies made at his clinic by Indiana University graduate students in the division of social service "provide a clear cross section of our case load." shown by these two studies, began his social drinking at the age of 20 or 21 and was in his mid30s when he found out he had- a pink elephant by the tail. Some of the differenes indiated between the Midwestern alcoholic and those of other studies may be erased by later studies, the researhera warn. Ratios Different ~ Hie Indianapolis clinic has been in operation for only two years, and aloho.'Rs are not aware of its existene. But on the basis of the inconclusive figures, the ratio of women alcoholics to men, their eduational levels, employment stories and family size all are different. In the Indiana studies, women were fewer, less high school graduates went on to, college, more were out of jobs and the largest number were first or second born in their family, not the youngest as had been the cases in studies elsewhere in the country. Here is the “average patient” at the Indiana clinic, as depicted by the researchers: Not Foreign Born “He would be a white. Protestant male, 45 years old. He might or might not be Indiana bom but he almost certainly was not of foreign birth. Educationally he had had a partial high school education. : “He had been married at least once, but was no longer living with his wife. Os his two children, at least one was below the age of 18 years. He had a history of losing one or more jobs because of drinking. . .sometime between the ages of 20 and 21, this mythical patient started his social drinking which became problem drinking by the time he was 35 years of age.
Turkey, Ham Shoot Is Planned Sunday The St. Mary’s and Blue Creek conservation club will open its fall season with a turkey and ham shoot Sunday afternoon at 1 o'clock. The club is located one mile west of Willshire, 0., along state road 124. The Pacific shoreline of the United States from Mexico to Canada extends 1,700 miles, but the National Park Service found that .1,448 miles of this is privately owned and not available for public recreation. “Now that I’ve got you all together . . . how about dinner at my house tonight?''
Set Schedule In Event Os National Tie CHICAGO (UPD—The National League officialy was prepared today to take care of. every conceivable kind of tie in which its pennant race might wind up. League President Warren Giles met Wednesday with representatives of Los Angeles, Milwaukee and San Francisco to work out details for possible playoffs should more than one club be in first place when the season officially ends. The playoff, if necessary, would begin on Monday with the second game on Tuesday and the third, if needed, on Wednesday. There would be no time alowance for travel. To win the playoff, a club would have to take two of the three games. Should Los Angeles and Milwaukee tie, the first game would- be at Milwaukee, the others at Los Angeles. Should Los Angeles and San Francisco tie, the first game would be at San Francisco, the others at Los Angeles. Should San Francisco and Milwaukee tie, the first game also would be at San Francisco. Should all three teams tie, the first game would be Milwaukee at San Francisco, tlje second Los Angeles at Milwaukee and the third, San Francisco at Los Angeles. Another drawing then would be held to determine the sites of any additional games. It was agreed that, should a playoff be necessary, the World Series would open later to permit the National League champion one day of rest after the final playoff game. Thus, since the quickest possible finish for a playoff would be two days, the World Series at best would open on Friday, Oct. 3, at Comiskey Park, home park of the American League champion White Sox. "it could take as many as five days, should three teams tie,” Giles said. Fort Worth Leading In Playoff Finals MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. (UPI) — The Minneapolis Millers left their Minnesota stronghold Sunday night with a comfortable two-game lead over Fort Worth in the American Association playoffs. They returned home today considerably the worse for their travels, having lost three straight games to the Fort Worth Cats, including a 2-1 loss Wednesday night at Fort Worth. The Cats’ victory sent the Texans into a 3-2 game lead. Another victory tonight would end the best-of-seven games playoffs and give Fort Worth the association pennant in its first year in the league.

Gordons Rehired To Manage Indians CLEVELAND, Ohio (UPI)-Joe Gordon, the man considered best able to succeed himself as manager of the Cleveland Indians, was off pheasant. hunting today with a crisp, new two-year contract for the job stuffed in his pocket. The contract, for $40,000 annually, a SIO,OOO increase, was announced in a stunning reversal of form by General Manager Frank Lane at a press conference at Indians’ headquarters Wedesday. Lane, who had been outspokenly critical of his field manager in a feud of several weeks, second guessed himself and decided he “couldn’t think of anyone better able to succeed Gordon than Gordon himself.” There was speculation today that pressure from the fans, who overwhelmingly favored Gordon, was a factor in Lane's decision. Die general manager denied it however. Gordon was given a standing ovation by the crowd of 54.000 fans who saw the Indians eliminated from the American League pennant race by the White Sox Tuesday night, 4-2. And when the announcement of Gordon's resigning was .made over the public address system at Thistle Down race track today, it set off resounding cheers. Trade b a go <>wn — Decatur
