Giants Return To New York, Defeat Nets By MILTON RICHMAN UPI Sports Writer Leave it to the Dodgers to louse up Willie's homecoming, even though they were 90 miles away. At the Polo Grounds, everything went letter perfect A happy, bug-eyed crowd of 43,742 welcomed back Willie Mays for the first time in five years and roared in ecstatic delight when he slugged his 17th homer to help the San Francisco Giants maul the New York Mets, 9-6, Friday night. Willie McCovey chipped in with a pair of homers, Jim Davenport with a grand slam and southpaw Billy Pierce with his eighth straight victory as the Giants marked their return to New York by handing the Mets their 12th straight defeat. It was a gala occasion in every sense except that even as the Giants were whooping it up in the clubhouse, word came from Philadelphia that the Dodgers had shoe-homed their way into a first-place tie with San Francisco by beating the Phillies twice, 11-4 and 8-5, for their 12th and 13th straight victories. That sort of put a damper on Reason Far Concern The Giants have ample reason to be concerned. Even though they have won eight of their last 12 games. The D odgers have gained 3% games on them by fashioning the majors’ 1 ongest winning streak of the season. There could be a possible omen in the tact the Dodgers also put a 13-game winning st reaks together in 1947 and 1953. and won the pennant in both those years. The way they’re playing now. no one is going to stop ’em, not even the Giants. In Friday night’s opener with the Phillies, for example. Tommy Davis singled home three runs in the -seventh when Willie Davis got a good jump and scored all the way from first, standing up. When is the last time you saw something like that? Rookie Larry Burright collected a pair of triples and Jim Gilliam a homer to help Stan Williams to his fifth victory. Drysdale Wins lift " Then in the nightcap, Don Drysdale doubled with the bases full for three runs in the sixth and posted his 11th victory although requiring Larry Sherry’s help in the eighth. The third-place Cincinnati Reds won their eighth game in n ine starts with a 5-2 decision over the Chicago Cubs, the Milwaukee Braves blar.ued the St. Louis Cardinals, 7-0, and the Pittsburgh Pirates won their sixth straight by hurdling the Houston Colts, 84.

Scour Country For I Kidnaped Americans SAIGON, South Viet Nam (UPD — Tough South Vietnamese rangers today scoured the wild mountain country 200 miles north of here for three American missionaries kidnaped by Communist guerrillas. The Rev. Thomas G. Mangham, 40, of Atlanta, Ga., said Friday that the missionaries— including a woman doctor — were abducted at bayonet point Wednesday from an isolated leper hospital 14 miles Kidnaped were Dr. Ardel Vietty. 34, of Houston, Tex.; Archie R. Mitchell, 44, of Bly, Ore.; and Daniel Gerber, 22, of Kidron, Ohio. Mangham, who returned here from Ban Me Thuot with the first detailed report of the kidnaping, said he believes Communist Viet Cong soldiers seized the missionaries to get medical attention for their wounded. He predicted that the captives would be released soon. “We don’t know which way they (the Communists) went,” said Mangham, who is the Saigon didector of the American Missionary Alliance. Mangham said he was told by Mitchell’s wife, Betty, that about a dozen Viet Cong soldiers dressed in an assortment of uniforms entered the leprosarium compound early Wednesday after surprising Gerber at the gate.

Controversy On Jones May Lead To Rule Change ..INDIANAPOLIS (UPI)-A controversy over Parnelli Jones driving without brakes for about twothirds of Wednesday’s 500-mile Speedway auto race s immered along today with the possibility it might bring a change in United States Auto Club regulations. Jones, the pole position winner -who set a new qualification speed record of more than 150 mph and led through the early stages of the race drove more than 100 miles of the event without brakes after the brake line broke. USAC officials were criticized Friday for allowing Jones to continue in the race but defended their action, saying he was in control of the car at all times. Ross Kitchen, a Chamber of Commerce official and insurance company executive, said failure to black flag Jones was “terrible.” He said race officials “tell a guy he can drive without brakes if he is clever enough. This is what youngsters all over will get from the race.” Chief Steward Harlan Fengler said, however, that Jones “was running a safe race and should not have been flagged.” Fengler was supported by other USAC officials. J. C. Agajanian, owner of the car Jones drove, was one who thought he should have been flagged off the track but said it was up to USAC to take the action and that the USAC observers around the track felt that Jones was in control of the car and not endangering himself or other drivers. Henry Banks, USAC director of competition, said race officials never ’know how many cars are running without brakes and it was “quite apparent there was no potential danger.” Fengler noted that Lee Wallacr
finished without b rakes in 1951 and won the Memorial Day grind. There was speculation -that USAC might adopt a new rule for 1963 requiring two sets of brakes on a car. Agajanian said the Jones car had two sets Wednesday but that both were knocked out by the broken line. Brakes are used only sparingly at the Speedway but are needed for pit stops. On one stop Wednesday, Jones’ pit crew manhandled the car to a stop and, on the third, Jones ran over a tire and then brushed the pit wall to stop the car. Slock Market Week Ends On Anti-Climax NEW YORK (UPI) — Staff workers of New York and American stock exchange member firms made unfamiiar Saturday journeys into the Wall Street area today, bent on catching up with some of the details left after the most hectic trading week since 1929." There was no trading. But trading posts were manned, and brokerage offices had staffers available to tear into the mountain of paper work and to answer queries stemming from the trading of 40,560,000 shares on the New York Stock Exchange the past week, in only four days of trading. — The week ended Friday on a sort of anti-climax. Dealing seemed mild: 5,760,000 shares, about 2 million more than what has been the normal day's trading through most of 1962. Yet it was a rel axing drop from the frantic pace of Monday, Tuesday and Thursday. Reflect Prices Trend Stock prices reflected the easier trend. They were off slightly, fractions in most cases. Most leaders ended about where they were when the previous week closed. American Telephone and Telegraph was 111%: Anaconda 43%; Bethlehem Steel 37; DuPont, 214(4; General Motors 50%; Goodyear 35%; Standard of New Jersey 51%; U. S. Steel 52%. Hie indexes reflected the way that the trading had evened out after the overcrowded sessions of Tuesday and Thursday. The Dow Jones average of 30 industrial stocks was 611.05, off 2.31 from Thursday's close but only 0.83 down from the close of trading the previous Friday. Standard & Poor’s index of 500 stocks was 59.38, off 0.25 from Thursday but only 0.09 for the week. Big Blocks Absent Big blocks of trading like those which had characterized dealings on Thursday were absent from the market Friday. For the first time In the week, the stock maitcet ticker, which had labored and fallen short on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday, managed to catch up on Friday after about two hours of trading. Floor crews cheered; it meant that the market was si owing down. It stayed on top of the trading the rest of the session.

Youth Confesses To Slaying Benefactors CHESTERFIELD, Va. (UPI) — Police said a homeless 16-year-old boy befriended by a rural farm family admitted today he shot and killed his three when they returned from a shopping trip to Richmond. State T rooper J. H.

Police said the girl’s body was found next to a barn about 60 yards from the house and the bodies of her parents were found side by side about 40 feet from the dwelling. Dr. Geoffrey T. Mann, state chief medical investigator, said Hofer was shot once in the neck and his wife and daughter were shot at least twice.

Gary Player Is Leader In Memphis Open MEMPHIS, Tenn. (UPD—South African Gary Player, leader at the halfway junction with 131, was set to lead 95 top llnksmen into the third round today of the $40,000 Memphis Open golf tournament. The chunky, 26-year-old Player put together a four-under-par 66 Friday to go with his opening day total of 65. Don January,the lean Texan who shot 67 T hursday, came back with 65, good for second place. The highlight of the day was a course record-equalling 63 by young Bruce Crampton of Sidney, Australia. The muscular shotmaker toured the back nine in 30 strokes, featuring two birdies and two eagles. He was deadlocked at 133 with four other players.
