Tigers, Indians Both Win Twin Bills Sunday United Press International United Pres International As General Custer said — “get a load of those Indians!’* Bob Schefing knows exactly how Custer must have felt because he's starting to get that boxer-in felling, too, even though his own Detroit Tigers still lead the American League by two games. "Those Indians just keep coming,” Schefing said Sunday after the Tigers swept two games from the Minnesota Twins, 10-4 and 9-3. "We took four in a row from Minnesota and I had hoped to gain some ground,” he added. “But Cleveland has won six in a row so we didn’t gain a thing.” The second-place Indians, winners of 15 of their last 18, kept pace with the Tigers Sunday by beating the Los Angeles Angels twice, 5-3 and 8-4. Schefing knows the Indians are right on the Tigers’ tail, but is doing his best to ignore them. "I’m paying more attention to the fact that we’re 17 games over .500 than to what anyone else is - doing,” Schefing said. “As long as the club keeps playing at that clip we’ll be okay.” | Hit Eight Homers And as long as the Tigers hit ’ home runs like they did Sunday, ( they’ll be okay, too. They hit a j total of eight to hand the tail- . spinning Twins their eigth and ‘ ninth straight defeats. Norm Cash, . Bill Bruton, Dick Brown, Qiico, , Fernandez and Jake .. nected in the opener while Rocky Colavito, Bubba Morton and Mike 1 Roarke homered in the nightcap. ' Frank Lary (8-3) was the winner in the opener and reliever ; Paul Foytack (3-3) was credited with the nightcap. Cleveland also benefitted from some brisk hitting in taking two from Los Angeles. Woodie Held homered in the opener and Buba Philips and Wilie Kirkland in the nightcap. Jim Piersal raised his league leading batting average to .356 with three hits in the first game, then sat out the second game because of a bruised Jim Perry won his first game since April 24 when he pitched the first six innings of the opener and Wynn Hawkins gained his fifth win in the nightcap although requiring relief also. In other AL games, the New York Yankees trounced the Chicago White Sox, 10-1, the Boston Red Sox beat the Baltimore Orioles, 6-5, and the Kansas City Athletics defeated the Washington Senators, 8-5. Giants Beat Dodgers The San Francisco Giants climbed to within five percentage points of the National League lead , The Other Day we were talking about the pat- m. terns of human history, how they are divided not’ only into sffi definite periods, but each new i R. per iodis * SHORTER and Zintsmaster characterized by man’s increasing speeds. The first period of about 5000 years had speeds no greater than man’s strength or legs, or a beast could pull or carry ham. In the second definable period, which lasted about 500 years, man increased his travel on the seas and his speed proportionately. Period number three emerged with the beginnings of the steam engine and continued for some 200 years with gradually increasing speeds on land and sea. The fourth period began with the amazing 20th Century, where, in a few decades, we have increased our speeds from a few miles an hour to more than 20 mdS.es per second in orbiting satellites. ... However, there are maximum sneeds ait which man can safely drive his car. and to this end, proper speed limits have been adopted for the mutual benefit and safety of all of us. But even at safe speed, you cannot be sure of safety, unless the car itself is a good one end is properly checked regularly for pointe of possible trouble. Buch protection for you is our duty, which is why we feel dedicated to serving you faithfully — and economically! Zhtsmstar Motors Plrnne 3-2003

Sammy Snead, Demaret Win International DORADO BEACH, P. R. (UPD — Sammy Snead and Jimmy Demaret, a pair of time - resistant golfing grandpappies, ruled the international golf world today. Slammin’ Sam scored the 110th tournament triumph of his quarter century career Sunday when he won the International Trophy with a final round 68 and a 16-under-par total of 272, which left four-time British Open champion Peter Thomson eight shots in his wake. And he teamed with the 52-year-old Demaret to give Uncle Sam the coveted Canada Cup team championship against the best from 32 other nations with a twoman total of 560 strokes, which buried feared Australia by 12 shots. Their Third Venture It was their third venture as teammates in the nine-year-o 1 d tournament. They were third in 1954, second in 1957 and, getting better with age, they led all the way this time around. Sam was the wheelhorse as he picked up SI,OOO for his individual victory and split $2,000 with Demaret for the team title. Sam opened with two rounds of 67 — five under par over the rugged 7,115-yard Dorado Beach course—and added a 70 and a 68 to clinch his runaway. It gave Snead his third straight tournament triumph. In his last two appearances, the Slammer from the West Virginia hills won the Las Vegas and Greenbrier events. And his three sub 70 rounds marked the 10th time in his last 12 competitive rounds that the 49-year-old star had broken 70. But the Slammer found Demaret no drag. Battle Heat
For jaunty Jimmy, the threetime Masters champion who had been out fishing on a boat for 10 days before he was summoned hastily as a substitute for Arnold Palmer, fired rounds of 73, 70, 74 and a closing 71 which put him at even par — and made him the sixth best of the 66 competing golfers from all over the world. When it was all over, after a final round in 88 degree heat which couldn’t sap either the determination or the stamina of the two Yankee aces, Snead had won by eight shots over Thomson with third place going to Ireland’s Christy O’Connor at 282. Caaada’s Al Balding was fourth at 283 and little Ben Arda of the Philippines fifth at 286.
