Worthman 9 s Gridders— Beginning To Shape Up

Coach Bob Worthman’s Yellow Jacket football team is beginning to take shape as the team is beginning to get in shape. Coach Worthman has been running the boys through two-a-day drills since Monday and they are responding well. . Worthman has also introduced some new drills which seem to be helping the boys to build up their co-ordination. At present the team doesn’t look too big, although there are some big boys who could make the team really go places, but there appears to be speed to burn. John Cowan and Max Eichenauer having been running the team from the quarterback slot while running through some basic plays from formation. Both boys have good arms and are good fakers, | especially Cowan, who has a tremendous pair of hands. Some of the other backfield ■ candidates appear to be Ed Nel-; son, Denny Ahr. Tom Grabill, i who could play end, Dave Magley, Bill Conrad, Ron Thieme, and Len Hilyard. All of these boys are fast, and any four could form one of the fastest backfields Decatur has ever had. End position figures to have any! of six or seven, but Stu Knodel. Tom Johnson, Dan Poling and. Steve Marbach appear to be the better of the lot. The rest of the line, however, is pretty much wide open. Ron August, a letterman, looks to be the center, but, Al Schiederer could make it rough; on Ron, as could either one of| two other boys. Steve Gause and Herb Magley, both underclassmen, could form a great, if not outstanding tackle combination if used at tackle. Both boys are young and inexperienced though, with Magley being a junior and Gause only a sophomore. Tom Sharpe, Bob Theobold, Larry Macklin, Ivan Darts, Mike Drake or any of the other boys trying out tor the tough line positions,’ could play either guard or tackle, as could Magley and Gause. These are all guesses and some even predictions based on last year's play and what position a tx>y played last year. Worthman expects to be able to tell about the first of next week what boys will be playing where as scrimmages will probably begin around the end of this week. As of now, things are pretty uncertain, but this yegg’s team appears to be one that wants to play, and given 10 or 15 boys that really want to put out, Worthman can produce a winner. After running the boys through a lot of conditioning drills Tuesday afternoon, giving some of the linemen body contact, running through some basic plays, and working on pass defense, Worthman dismissed the boys with a warning about Angola, the team's first opponent. He told them that just because this is Angola’s first varsity season, they can’t be taken lightly, i •'This is their first varsity season” 1 he explained, “but this isn’t the first season they have been playing football”, "niose boys have been playing football together for four years, with the program starting when they were freshmen and they are fast, can throw a lot and play a good defensive game,” he said.

ytfSPORTSIfr Komets Open Home Season Oct. 22

The Fort Wayne Komets, who open their ice hockey season on Friday, October 21, will use the War Memorial Coliseum in Fort Wayne for their training camp this year. Komet coach Ken Ullyot made the announcement Monday night, stating that the Komets would open camp at the coliseum, Monday, October 10. Ullyot also stated that all members of last year’s International league championship team would be at the first day’s session with the exception of three. The three are Len Ronson, Duane Rupp, and last season s goalie, Reno Zanier. Rupp, an all star defenseman last year, and Ronson, who set an IHL record of 62 goals last season, will be trying out for the New York Rangers. Zanier will be in the camp of Portland, a Western League entry. If any of the three do not make it as a pro though, they will be in a Komet uniform for the coming season. About 20 players will be in camp, including about six newcomers who were signed during the summer months. Another newcomer will be a familar face to Komet fans. He is Joe Kastelic, who was with the Komets until being traded to Louisville Rebels two years ago. Coach Ullyot says the 1960-61 team should pick up where last year’s team left off, although he hopes to add this year’s playoff crown to another league championship. The Komets will play their first home game on Saturday night, Oct. 22. * VW' - France's Darmon Takes Men's Singles KITZBUEHEL, Austria <UPD - Pierre Darmon of France won the men’s singles title in the Alpine international tennis tournament Tuesday and Angela Mortimer of Britain won the women’s totle.

Pirates Win Two, Near NL Flag

United Press International A mere .537 pace In their remaining 41 games should be enough to clinch the Pittsburgh Pirates’ first National League pennant in 33 years. The “count down” that will eliminate the Milwaukee Braves, St. Louis Cardinals and Los Angeles Dodgers from the race is on today as a result of the Pirates’ 11-2 and 4-3 sweep of the Philadelphia Phillies Tuesday night which vaulted them into a 7% game lead.—Only 22 victories in their last 41 games, a .537 pace, would give the Pirates 92 wins for the season. That would mean the Braves would have to take 32 of their last 44 games to win, the Cardinals would have to win 30 of their last 40 and the Dodgers would have to cop 33 of 45. That’s a .696 pace for the Braves, .750 for the Cardinals and .733 for the Dodgers. No AL Count Down There’U be no such “count down” in the American League for a long while, however, where Whitey Ford's 1-0 win over the Baltimore Orioles held the New York Yankees’ half-game lead. The Orioles fell to third but the Chicago White Sox remained hot on the Yankees’ trail with their 3-2 win over the Detroit Tigers. The Braves shaded the Cincinnati Reds, 2-1. the San Francisco Zriants dealt the Cardinals a nearmoral blow with a 7-3 triumph and .the Dodgers beat the Chicago Cubs. 7-5, in 11 innings in other NL games. The Cleveland Indians scored a 10-inning 4-3 decision I over the Kansas City Athletics' and the Washington Senators beat the Boston Red Sox, 8-5, in other AL action. Bob Friend coasted to his 13th victory behind a first-game Pittsburgh attack that included a homer by Bob Skinner, a triple by Roberto Clemente and doubles bt Skinner and Bill MazerQski among 15 hits. The Pirates won the nightcap when Dick Groat. Skinner Nelson bunted safely with none out in the eighth and then Robin Roberts brok a 3-3 tie by walking Clement' to force in the decisive run. Elroy Face, who pitched the last two innings, won his seventh game for the Pirates. Pitches Three-Hitter Ford, working at his own request with two days” of rest, pitched a three-hitter for the Yankees who scored the game’s only run in the fourth inning on a hit batsman, and singles by Yogi Berra and Johnny Blanchard. Ford allowed only one Baltimore baserunner to reach second base and struck out six in winning his ninth game while rookie Chuck Estrada was the hard luck loser for the Orioles. Frank Baumann pitched a seven-hitter for the White Sox who scored two unearned runs in the eighth inning on a wild throw by catcher Harry Chitii Al Kaline doubled home one run and scored the other for Detroit. Warren Spahn and Hank Aaron combined their talents to win a squeaker for the Braves. Spahn pitched an eight-hitter and struck the season and the 281st of his career while Aaron homered to tie in the fourth and singled home the winning run in the ; eighth.

Moyer To Get Welter Shot NEW YORK (UPI) — Handsome young Denny Moyer of Portland, Ore., gets a shot at the welterweight crown next year, if he can still make the weight,' because of his upset non-title victory over champion Benny (Kid) Paret at Madison Square Garden Tuesday night. Harry Markson, Garden managing director, said today, “Moyer can meet the winner of the Paret - Federico Thompson title fight, scheduled for the Garden Oct. 15, if he wants to.” It would be 21-year-old Moyer’s second shot at the 147-pound crown. He tried to win it from Don Jordan on July 10, 1959, but lost the decision. Tuesday night bronze - haired Denny won a split verdict over champion Paret of Cuba before an estimated 4.000 in the nontelevised 10-rounder. Moyer was aided by a seventh - round foul. Paret was penalized that session, ijis best, for two low blows. Paret's title was not at stake because each scaled over the welterweight limit: Moyer, 152% pounds; Paret, 151. Before the fight, Moyer said it would be his last appearance as a welterweight because he no Jonger could pare down to 147 pounds. But after his unexpected victory, he and Manager Sid Flaherty agreed he would try to make the limit if he could get a title shot. Paret, favored at 3% to 1. said: “The round taken from me cost me the fight. But Moyer is very good and very hard to fight because he ties you up at close quarters. I'll be glad to give him a title shot after I beat Thompson.”
