Commodores Are Defeated By Willshire Willshire’s Bearcats struck for two runs in their half of the fourth inning and held on from there for a 4-2 victory over the Decatur Catholic Commodores in a game played at Hanna-Nuttman park Friday. Willshire scored in the first inning on a single by Schaffner, the first of four hits by the catcher, and he scored on an error. The Commodores got the run back in the second when Ed Kohne singled and went around on two Willshire errors. The Decatur nine then took the lead in the third inning when Dick Omlor reached first on rh error and scored on a booming triple by Mike Baker. Willshire then regained the lead in the fourth on walks to Reichart and Fickert, a fielder’s choice, a walk to Osborn, and another single by Schaffner. The Bearcats iced the affair in the sixth when they added their fourth run. The Commodores have two home doubleheaders scheduled for next week. They will entertain St. Mary’s of Anderson at 2 p. m.

Fine Pitching Marks Friday League Gaines By FRED DOWN j United Press International n The season tfiat started with the experts speculating whether somebody would break Babe r Ruth’s home run record may yet *; be recalled for some of the top “ pitching achievements of bweements of basebal’s modern era. In fact, big league sluggers ■ must have wondered Friday night ‘ whether Commissioner Ford Frick had secretly authorized the ■ return of the old rabbit-less rock--3 like dead ball. Bill Monbouquette, 24-year old right-hander of the Boston Red Sox, led the Brilliant pitching per- ’ formances when he struck out 17 batters — only one less than the major league record — in a 2-1 ’ victory over the Washington Sen- ’ ators. But even Monbouquette had to share the headlines on a night ’ during which: —Warren Spahn of the Milwaukee Braves and Early Wynn of the Chicago White Sox each made ’ another stride toward their gold- ! en goal of 300 lifetime triumphs. —Frank Lary beat the New 1 York Yankees for the 25th time n his career as he pitched the Detroit Tigers to a 4-3 victory that stretched their American League lead to 3% games. Koufax Strikes Out 11 —Sandy Koufax carried a nohitter into the seventh inning and ■ struck out 11 batters as the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Chicago Cubs, 4-2, for the fifth straight ' win-. Monbouquette set a new club record with his 17 strikeouts and just missed the all-time record shared by Koufax and Bob Feller. It was the second 17-strikeout performance of the season — Art Mahaffey of the Philadelphia Phillies having done it against the Cubs on April 23. Spahn chalked up his fourth victory of this season and the 292nd of his career in a 5-4 squeaker with the San Francisco Giants. The 40-year old left-hand-er was tagged for eight hits, including a ninth-inning homer by Orlando Cepeda but the Braves I supported him with a nine-hit ofIfense featured by homers by 'Hank Aaron, Lee Maye and EdI die Mathews. Pitches Four Hitter The 41-year old Wynn pitched a four-hitter as he won his third game of the year and the 287th of his career. Wynn pitched a nohitter for six innings, walked one batter and struck out seven. Koufax faltered in the ninth inning after his overpowering showing and Dick Farrell came on to 1 retire the final Cub. Waly Moon, back in the familiar surroundings > of the Coliseum, popped another . wrong-field homer of the left field 3 screen, his 10th of the season. I Lary, who has lost only eight games to the Yankees during his career, won his own game with a ninth-inning homer off reliever r Jim Coates. Lary, who doubled and scored the tying run in the seventh, raised his Season record to 5-1 although tapped for 11 hits including a homer by Hector Lopez. Orioles To plndians The Baltimore Orioles beat the Cleveland Indians, 4-2, and the Minnesota Twins shaded the Los Angeles Angels, 5-4, in other American League games, while the Pittsburgh Pirates topped the Cincinnati Reds, 8-5, and the St. Louis Cardinals scored a 5-1 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies in other National League action. Jim Gentile, who last Tuesday set a major league record by hitting two consecutive grand slam homers, hit a two-run homer and Jack Fisher pitched a seven-hit-ter for the Orioles. Ex-National League star Johnny Antonelli yielded al four Baltimore runs and seven hits in 3 1-3 innings to suffer his fourth straight loss. Pedro Ramos drove in three runs with a homer and a single and won his third game of the season for the Twins who routed Eli Grba in 5 1-3 innings. Grba, Ken Hunt and Earl Averill also homered. Three-run homers by Rocky Nelson and Dick Stuart enabled the Pirates to end the Reds’ ninegame winning streak while Ernie Broglio’s nine-hit pitching and a homer by Don Landrum helped the Cardinals hand the Phillies their 10th straight defeat.

Souchak Leading In Colonial Meet FORT WORTH, Tex. (UPI) — Mike Souchak, who claims he’s noted as a strong finisher, nursed a two-stroke lead into the third round of the Colonial National Invitation golf tournament today with his one-under-par 36-hole total of 139. “For a good many years I’ve r played better the last two rounds B and finished strong,” Souchak t said yesterday after he had fought 3 off the gusty winds for a par 70 . that nosed him out in front of first-round leader Kel Nagle, Bill 5 Casper, and another fast finisher t of note, Arnold Palmer. j Souchak could point up that fact » by referring back to his own pre- . vious victory here in 1956 when he had a 36-hole total of 146 and was tied for 15th only to finish with a 65-69 and even par 280. “I’d settle for that 280 and go ‘ on to Hot Springs, Ark., and let ’em mail me the check,” Souchak said when asked what he thought the winning score here would be i if the winds continue to be a thorn in the players’ side. There were no sub-par rounds Friday in contrast to seven on , opening day, and Souchak’s 70 was one of only three par-equalling rounds posted. Nagle, the British Open champ who parlayed an ace and three birdies into a 65 to lead the first round, saw his game collapse to a 76 Friday, while Palmer skied from a 68 to a 73 and Casper from a 69 to a 72. Veteran Driver Killed On Eve Os Time Trial INDIANAPOLIS (UPl)—Qualifications opened today for the 500mile auto race under near perfect weather conditions as the flag was lowered for the last time for Speedway daredevil Tony Bettenhausen, who crashed to his death in a flaming race car when a cheap bolt came off. The racing fraternity lost one of its most illustrious and one of its toughest competitors when Bettenhausen, 44, of Tinley Park, 111., crashed Friday while test driving the car assigned to Paul Russo, Fortville, Ind. Both were among the most experienced veterans at the track. But the show. went on and upward of 125,000 fans were expect- ' ed to jam the sprawling Speedway grounds for the “battle for the pole”—the inside position in the front row in the Memorial Day 1 race of 33 starters. ' The tragic crash, the first fa--1 tality at the Speedway since 1959 “won’t change a thing” as far 3 as the time trials go, said defend--3 ing pole spot champion Eddie 1 Sachs, Center Valley, Pa., who r predicted record speeds. ’ However, it robbed the Speede way of the number one contender for the pole spot. For it was Tony, s a weekday farmer and weekend race driver, who had set the pace in practice and wanted to be the first driver here to crash the illue sive 150 miles per hour barrier. e “Somebody wil have to average s better than 150 m.p.h. to keep me r from winning the number one e starting spot," said Tony shortly e before his luck ran out. With him gone. Sachs, qualifying record holder Jim Hurtubise, " Lennox, Calif., and rookie Parnel- ‘ li Jones, Torrance, Calif., were expected to be among the front V runners for the coveted pole spot ‘ that goes to the fastest first-day ] qualifier. 1 Another early qualifier was ex- ‘ pected to be road-racing chamF pion Jack Brabham, Australia, in 1 his English built Cooper-Climax. 3 As soon as he has made the ’ grade, Brabham was to hop a plane back to Monte Carlo for ; Sunday’s International Grand Prix ■ race. i \ : ’ Rowlina Scores r Ladies Minor League 1 W L Pts.

Bombers Defended By Air Force Chief WASHINGTON (UPI) — The United States may be doomed if it abandons bombers to rely on a Maginot Line of missiles, according to the Air Force chief of staff. _ Gen. Thomas D. White said that a “reading of history which I think need not be very deep” shows that “the future is very likely to depend on something like the B 70.” White said there was “an everincreasing possibility” that the United Statesmight be attacked by surprise. White’s warning was contained in heavily censored testimony from House Armed Services Committee hearings last March. It supported recommendations by armed services groups in both the House and Senate against moving too rapidly away from manned bombers into reliance on missiles. Both committees have approved ' bills authorizing continued pro- ! duction of 852 and 858 bombers, now scheduled to halt., White, in the testimony released Friday, urged , more money for faster development of the 870 bomber, too. High officials are studying the question. White said the United States faces a growing possibility of being struck by a surprise attack because during the next two years Russia wil be building up its missile arsenal while the U.S.'

South Side Is Repeal Winner In Sectional The Decatur high school halfmile relay team cracked the Decatur high record in the event, but failed to qualify for the regional, as South Side's powerful contingent copped the sectional track and field championship at Northrop field in Fort Wayne Friday night. Decatur was the only Adams county school to score in the meet, that being the two points garnered in the half-mile relay. Decatur finished fourth, but only the first three teams qualify for the regional. The Jacket foursome, composed of Denny Bollenbacher, Ed Nelson, Stu Knodel, and Dan Poling, finished in the time of 1:34.7, cracking the school record of 1:36.0 by more than a full second. Both Bollenbacher and Poling qualified for the finals of the 100 and 220 yard dashes, however, neither finished high enough to score any points. Poling was just out of the “money” in the 220, finishing fifth. Glen Lehman of Geneva did a good job in the pole vault, but with North Side’s Stan Heine tying the sectional record, which has existed since 1932, and Central Catholic’s Ed Bobay going 12 feet, 2% inches to break the record, the pole vault field was really loaded. South Side won the meet with 57 points. North Side was second with 33, and Central third with 324. Other team scoring was as follows: New Haven 17, Elmhurst 7, Central Catholic 6, Garrett 4, Concordia 2, Decatur 2, Leo 2, Waterloo 14, and Hoagland 1.
