Indians Whip Yankees, Only Half Game Out . I By FRED DOWN DPI Sports Writer He’s only Pfc. Jim Grant as far as the U.S. Army is concerned but to the Cleveland Indians he's, pitcher first class. Why? Because he does what I makes everybody in the American ; League happy — he beats the New York Yankees. Never mind; Army protocol —a guy who beats ■ the Yankees rates four stars on his shoulders in any company. Grant, who started a 30-dav Army leave on Thursday, held the Yankees to a mere five hits Friday night in pitching the Indians to a 7-1 victory. It was his second straight victory of the season and it enabled the Indians to move to within a half game of the firstplace Yankees. The victory may prove to be one of the most significant of the AL season because it means the Yankees are still “tied to the league” — not in a position for a runaway as so many experts have predicted. Homers by Don Dillard and Woodie Held were the big blows for the Indians who dealt Ralph Terry his third loss against four wins. Bill Skowron homered for the Yankees’ run in the eighth inning. _j The Detroit Tigers downed the Boston Red Sox, 5-1, the Washington Senators routed the Baltimore Orioles, 12-1. the Kansas City A’s beat the Minnesota Twins, 5-3, and the Los Angeles Angels topped the Chicago White Sox, 4-2, in other American League games. Colts Blank Giants In the National League, the Houston Colts shut out the San Francisco Giants, 7-0, the Los Angeles Dodgers beat the St. Louis Cardinals, 8-5, the Cincinnati Reds edged out the Pittsburgh Pirates, 3-2, in 10 innings, the Milwaukee Braves beat the New York Mets, 8-5, and the Philadelphia Phillies routed the Chicago Cubs. 12-2. Chico Fernandez and Norm Cash hit homers behind the fivehit pitching of Paul Foytack to give the Tigers their victory over Boston. Foytack struck out six and allowed only one walk in winning his first game. Don Schwall. 1 AL rookie of the year in 1961, lost his fourth game against one win. The Senators sent 15 men to the plate in an 11-run sixth-inning rally that made it easy for Dave Stenhouse to win his second game. Chuck Cottier doubled twice in Washington’s big inning to drive in three runs. Cimoli Provides Winner Gino Cimoii’s tie-breaking single in the sixth inning was the big blow for the A’s in a game j called in the bottom of the eighth inning because of rain. Rookie Dave Wickersham went 4 1-3 innings in middle-inning relief to j

Gary Player Takes Lead In Colonial Meet FORT WORTH, Tex. (UPI) — South African Gary Player carried a one-stroke lead over Arnold Palmer and Johnny Pott into the third round of the Colonial National Invitation Golf tournament today. Player was one of four players able to equal Colonial's rugged par 35-35—70 Friday and his 3337—70 gave him a 36-hole total of 138. Palmer, meanwhile, ran into serious putting di faculties and took 35 strokes on the greens for a 35-37—72, his first over par round since the second round of the Greensboro Open, a string of 11 in a row. That left the year’s big money winner tied at 139 with Johnny Pott, who like Palmer, came here fresh from a tournament victory. While Palmer was winning at Las Vegas, Pott — who had a 36-34— 70 Friday, captured the Waco Turner Open last weekend. Doug Ford and Jack Nicklaus were a stroke further off the pace at 140, Ford with a 36-36— 72 and Nicklaus with a 34-37 —71. Player, who came here after a four-week, 23,000 - mile vacation trip home to South Africa, sank an 80-foot putt for a birdie on the eighth hole Friday and sank numerous other sizeable ones for pars to cause him to comment that he “holed a helluva lot of putts.” Player, last year’s big money winner among the pros, but far behind Palmer’s $52,000 bankroll this season, said he plans to play in the British and Australian opens and also the Canada Gup if he is invited by South Africa, which he has represented for the past half dozen years.

Johnson Favored To Take Crown Tonight PHILADELPHIA (UPI>- Wily Harold Johnson is a 7-5 favorite to balloon his National Boning Association light-heavyweight title into a world crown tonight in a 15-round nationally televised bout with Doug Jones of New York. The 33-year old Johnson enters the ring against his less-experi-enced foe fresh from a legal victory over manager Pat Olivieri in a purse dispute which threatened to cancel the arena match. Johnson vowed to walk out on the bout, the biggest opportunity of his long but poor-paying career, until two judges ruled Thursday he was entitled to his share of the purse — cash on the barrelhead. Would Drop Manager Olivieri, feuding in the courts with Johnson since last November, had asked the judges to place the boxer’s pay — expected to exceed $15,000-in escrow alongside his, pending set tlement of their legal entanglements. Johnson wants to shed Olivieri as his manager and the pilot has countered with an injunction petition to bar the NBA king from signing any future bouts without him. The oddsmakers have made Philadelphia’s Harold their choice because he is a classic stylist with a wide edge in experience over 25-year old Jones, who has had only 20 matches, winning 19 of them—ll by kayo. The local battler has a 67-8 log, with 31 of his triumphs knockouts, and has not been beaten in his last 16 fights over the past seven years. He won the NBA crown Feb. 6, 1961 with a ninth-round kayo of Jesse Bowdry. He defended against Von Clay and Eddie Cotton last year. Stripped Moore’s Title _ The door to a wold title opened for Johnson and Jones when the New York Athletic Commission stripped Archie Moore of his half of the 175-pound title and agreed to recognize tonight’s winner as undisputed world champion. The European Boxing Union and the British Boxing Board of Control also decided to give the bout global stature. Only the athletic commission of California, Moore’s home state, is wthholding recognition, sticking with Archie. The Pennsylvania Athletic Commission will not relax its safety rules for the title bout. If either fighter is knocked down, he musT take a mandatory count of eight. If either is floored three times in a round he loses the bout automatically on a technical knockout. Trade in a goor town — Decatur

Decatur Man Drives 40-Year-OM Auto Cal Yost, Decatur businessman, has realized a long-time ambition in the purchase this past winter of a 1921 Dodge roadster, which he is now driving around Decatur. < In that year, Yost bought a new Dodge from Tom Durkin, which he drove several ears. About ten years ago he decided he would like to have another, to enter in parades and antique auto shows, but this is the first he has found. While in Albuquerque this past winter, he went to a car dealer to get his own auto fixed, and saw this car on the lot. It had been owned by an old Spanish don, who had died about ten or 15 years ago, and the son had closed up his garage, with the car in it. Recently, the dealer had been able to purchase the car. The black roadster, with its “Dodge Brothers” label on front, was in good condition, without a dent in the body. Several parts were weak or missing, however, and Yost has labored mightily to find missing parts. Many had to be made. The Dodge company is helping him look for them. Yost says he plans to take the car to the Buck Lake Ranch antique show in June. Meanwhile, he’s searching for a leather cover for the top, so he can keep it neatly down most of the time. Yost planned to bring the car back by trailer, but couldn’t get it arranged, so he shipped it back by truck. The speedometer shows 6,000 miles. Jerome J. O'Dowd Is Named 'Man Os Year' Fort Wayne city attorney Jerome J. O’Dowd, son-in-law of Mrs. A. R. Holthouse of Decatur, has been named 1962^“Man of the Year” by the Fort Wayne Notre Dame club.
