Men’s City Golf L eague To Open Schedule Next Monday; Ten Teams In 1961 League

The 1961 men’s City golf league will get underway at the Decatur Golf course next Monday, weather permitting. The league will operate this year with the following 10 teams: Sherwin-Williams, Vigortones, First State Bank, Shriners, Holthouse-on-Highway, Decatur Industries, Leland Smith Insurance, Kelly Cleaners, Schafer’s, and Fortney Shoe Repair. Representatives from these teams met several weeks ago and adopted a change in some rules, a change in the procedure of play and point system.

They also adopted two points for each individual match won and two points for a combination of No. 1 and 2 men's combined scores and two points for the No. 3 and 4 combined. This is a total of 12 points available for each team match. The representatives also adopted the one-stroke penalty for out of bounds. Sherwin-Williams is the defending champion, having won the league championship in 1960. The first half of league play will be from May 1 through June 26. with the second half starting July 7, a Friday (due to the July 4 holiday), and concluding Aug. 28. Winners of the first half will meet the second winners Sept. 8 for the league championship.

Hagerty charged in a speech here Tuesday night that the national news media did not live up to its responsibilities in reporting last week’s Cuban invasion. Speaking before a Chamber of Commerce meeting, Hagerty said that “freedom of the press is not license of the press,” and that “the free news media was taken for a nice healthy ride in the Cuban invasion.” Hagerty, presidential press secretary during the Eisenhower administration, said the only inforfation from the Cuban rebels came from a rebel “public relations man.” He said Castro would not let free world reporters in Cuba send dispatchesforffvedays after“the Landing and that the only dispatches from the Cuban, government sent out during that period were written by Communist correspondents. “Now, it tiirns out there were; 1,300 in the landing rather than up to 5,000,” he said. The news media reported information “too fast,” and the stories turned out in some cases to be incorrect, he said. “I think the government could have helped, but it did not," Hagerty said. “We are the best informed people in the world, but we take our information for granted." Hagerty said. He explained that “all too often the news media seem to take the opinion the United States is wrong until proven right” and is “willing to exaggerate mistakes." "These are difficult days and they are going to get more difficult,” he said. “Castro is going to get to be more of a menace.” Encouraging full support for President Kennedy, Hagerty said "we must tighten our belt and unite, in the way those against us arc united.” He said “We must be ready to fight, and I mean fight" for our beliefs. He also recommended that the social responsibilities of the presi- 1 dency be reduced. He said a president is the “leader of the hos-| pitality comm it tee,” and that “there isn’t ahother country in the world that loads its president down with that kind of job.” Larry Jackson Back To Mound Tonight ST. LOUIS <UPI> — Larry Jackson, who has been idle for four weeks with a jaw facture, will probably be back on the mound tonight when the St. Louis Cardinals take on the Milwaukee Braves. i The big workhorse has been on a liquid diet but lost only a few pounds. It was his first baseball injury and he said he was “mighty glad" it's over.

Twins Handed 20-2 Thumping By Athletics By MILTON RICHMAN United Press International Live it up, you long-suffering Kansas City fans! No one is more entitled. This si one time you can really rave about a fearsome powerhouse like those record-busting Athletics and who’s going to give you any back talk? Start the conversation mildly, maybe even by discussing how greatly improved the Minnesota Twins look this year. Everyone is sure to agree. Then drop the bomb by casually mentioning Tuesday night’s score — Kansas City 20, Minnesota 2. ’lt marked the most runs ever scored in Kansas City’s major league history, topping the previous club high of 17 runs registered against the Boston Red Sox on June 15, 1958, and against the Cleveland Indians on April 24, 1957. I The only player in the Kansas I City lineup who failed to connect safely in Tuesday night’s 16-hit onslaught was rookie pitcher Norm Bass, making his first major league start. Understandably, Bass wasn’t too upset, though, because he limited the Twins to seven hits and gained his first victory even though he issued nine walks. Nary A Homer For all the heavy slugging, there wasn’t a single home run hit in the game, played before a meager but delighted crowd of 4,664 at Kansas City. Haywood Sullivan had a perfect night, driving in five runs with a pair of triples, a double and a single in four official trips. Bill Tuttle, the only player left On the club who participated in the 17-6 shellacking of Boyton three years ago, drove in four runs with a triple and two singles. The A’s routed loser Ted Sadowski during a six-run rally in the third inning and then rubbed the Twins’ noses in the dirt with an eight-run outburst in the sixth. Baltimore beat Cleveland, 5-2, and Boston defeated Washington, 6-1, in other American League games. Wet grounds caused post- : ponement of the Los Angeles An-gers-Chicago White Sox game, and rain washed out the game between the first-place Detroit Tigers and the New York Yankees. Giants Lead NL San Francisco took over the National League lead with a 3-1 victory over Los Angeles, and Milwaukee beat St. Louis, 4-3. Rain and wet grounds forced postponement of the Philadelphia-Pitts-burgh .game and the CincinnatiChicago contest. "Diamond Jim” Gentile drove in three runs in Baltimore’s win over Cleveland. Gentile hit his third homer of the season with one on in the first inning to give winning pitcher Steve Barber a lead he never let slip away. Hoyt Wilhelm nailed down Barber’s second victory when he came In with two on and two out in the ninth and struck out Jim Piersail on three pitches. Gary Bell lost his third straight and has yet to win. Big Gene Conley, better known for his basketball rather than his baseball exploits in Boston, made a successful debut with the Red Sox when he was credited with their victory over the Senators. Obtained in a winter deal with the Phillies, Conley held Washington to seven hits until the ninth when Mike Fornieles came to his rescue. Take Lead Early The Red Sox hopped on loser Pete Burnside for four runs on as many hits in the second inning when they put together Billy Harrell’s double, three singles, an error" a hit batsman and a sacrifice fly for all the runs they really needed. Willey McCovey paced the Giants in their "victory over the Dodgers. McCovey singled home San Francisco’s first run off loser Don Drysdale in the first inning and then homered to lead off the fourth. Wally Moon’s 12-game hitting streak came to an end as winner Jack Sanford and reliever Stu Miller limited the Dodgers to four hits. Lew Burdette scored his first victory for the Braves by checking the Cardinals on six hits. The Braves kayoed loser Curt Simmons during a three-run rally in the eighth, which was helped along by Red Schoendienst’s throwing error. Stan Musial homered with the bases empty in the ninth but Burdette next three men in order to end the game. Jury Is Selected For Murder Trial NEW CASTLE, Ind. (UPD — A jury of 11 men and one woman has been selected to hear the first-degree murder trial of Ray ■ Donald Foster, 28, in Henry Cirj cuit Court here. Proceedings were i expected to begin today.

NCAA May Lift Five-Year Ban Against Auburn WASHINGTON (UPD—The National Collegiate Tthletic Association’s extended probationary action against Auburn University was expected to come to an end today. The NCAA put the Alabama school on probation May 1, 1956, for violating the association’s recruiting aid regulations. The five years is the longest period any school ever has been on probation in NCAA history. The NCAA council, holding its three-day spring meeting here, his complete authority to -end theprobation immediately. UPI learned that the lifting of the ban on Auburn by the 18-man council looks favorable. The NCAA sanctions have made Auburn ineligible to compete in the' association’s 16 championship events, or any of the other of its 42 events, such as football bowl games and Christmas-vacation basketball tournaments. The ban also has prevented Auburn from having any of its sports carried on national television. These restrictions are enough to hit any school hard where it counts — in the pocketbook. In Tuesday’s action, the NCAA council voted to draft legislation to stop college basketball players from playing with organized summer teams. The council voted to adopt in principle recommendations of a spcial committee on the summer competition. The proposed legislation would make violating players permanently ineligible for college basketball.
