Cheney Hurls Second Win Os

Season Monday By MILTON RICHMAN UPI Sports Writer Tom Cheney seldom is bothered for his autograph. The kids generally pass him up because he doesn’t look much like a ballplayer. He's balding and skinny and he’s the type who studied veterinarian’s medicine in college. But he happens to be one whale of a pitcher and if you doubt it, just inquire around the American League. The 28-year-old Washington Senator right-hander turned in his second straight superlative game in a row Monday night with a four-hit, 4-1 victory over the Los Angeles Angels. The only run off the soft-spoken 165-pound Georgian—who tossed a one-hit shutout in his only other start this season —was unearned. No Earned Runs His season record now stands at two victories, no losses, no earned runs and only five hits allowed in 18 innigs. Cheney, who throws a little bit of everything—knucklers, sliders, fastballs, curves and even an occasional screwball—achieved his greatest prominence last Sept. 12 when he set a major league record by striking out 21 batters during a 16-inning game with the Baltimore Orioles. His record last year was a modest 7-9, but here’s a tip to the kids-' Better start getting his autograph. He could turn out to be one of the league's finest pitchers this year. Shortstop Eddie Brinkman’s sixth inning error helped the Angels to their only run Monday night but the Senators had all their runs by then. A’s Beat Detroit Chuck Hinton homered off loser Ken Mcßride in the first inning and the Senators came up with three more in the fourth when Brinkman singled two runs across and Chuck Cottier doubled for another. Kansas City shaded Detroit. 6-5, in the only othe AL game played. The scheduled game between the Cleveland Indians and Chicago White Sox was postponed because of cold weather. Wayne Causey, installed at shortstop for the A’s because Dick Howser was injured, made the most of it with a triple, a double and a pair of singles against the Tigers. In the National League, the Philadelphia Phillies ended the New York Mets’ four-game winning streak, 8-6; the Pittsburgh

Track Season 'Bests' Sporting New Looks INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — Indiana high school track season “bests” sported a new look today, with 9 of 13 events improved over last week. One all-time mark was set last week and two others were tied in the most explosive' record-break-ing in years, LaPorte’s classy Jerry Saffell is monopolizing the high and low hurdles. He skimmed over the low barriers Irtst weekend in 19 seconds to tie the all-time mark Bernie Rivers of East Chicago Washington tied his :9.6 for the 100 - yard dash and Pendleton's Mike Hanna wrecked the oldest record on the books when he soared 13 feet 8% inches in the pole vault. The old mark of 13 feet 6% inches had stood since 1942. Defending state champion Gary Roosevelt remained the team to beat in the relays, lowering both standards in the Goshen Relays. Undoubtedly, the record-bending will continue this week —barring adverse weather conditions. Top meets include the East and West NIHSC trials, relay carnivals at Columbus, Petersburg and Kokomo, all Saturday, and the New Castle Relays Friday night. Meanwhile, these were the latest state-wide season “bests”: 100-yard <jash—:9.6, Bernie Rivers, East Chicago Washington. . 220-yard dash— 222, Rivers. 440-yard dash—:49.B, Eugene Anderson, Gary Roosevelt. 880-yard run—l:sß.2, Jim Nidiffer.

Alternate Site For Little League Tryouts Decatur Little League officials stated todav that in event the Homestead diamond is too wet for the league tryouts Wednesday and Thursday evenings, the paved lot at the Lincoln school will be used. Pirates blanked the Chicago Cubs, 2-0; the St. Louis Cardinals defeated the Houston Colts, 5-2; the Cincinnati Reds beat the San Francisco Giants, 7-4, and the Milwaukee Braves walloped the Los Angeles Dodgers, 10-2

Braves Blast Out 10-1 Win Over Dodgers By TIM MORIARTY UPI Sports Writer How can a team look so bad against the New York Mets and so good against the National League’s best pitcher? That’s what Milwaukee Manager Bobby Bragan was asking himself today after his Braves bounced back from a “lost weekend” in New York by blasting their way to a 10-2 victory over Don Drysdale and the Los Angeles Dodgers Monday night. “I guess our guys were just glad to leave that chamber of horrors in the Polo Grounds, said Bragan in explaining the manner his Braves recovered from four straight losses to the Mets. Drysdale lasted only five innings as the suddenly aroused Milwaukee sluggers ripped the big right-hander for six runs and eight of their 13 hits at Los Angeles. Eddie Mathews clouted a threerun homer and Hank Aaron and Denis Menke chipped in with solo blasts to back up lefty Bob Hendley’s six-hit pitching. Drop Out of First The Cincinnati Reds knocked San Francisco out of first place by scoring a comeback 7-4 victory over the Giants on two»run homers by Jerry Lynch and Frank Robinson in the eighth inning. Jack Sanford was cruising along with a 3-1 lead when the Reds struck and handed the Giant righthander his first defeat after three straight victories. Marty Keough also homered for Cincinnati while Orlando Cepeda and Tom Haller hit solo blasts for the Giants. The Philadelphia Phillies ended the Mets’ four-game winning streak, 8-6; the St. Louis Cardinals downed the Houston Colts, 5-2, and the Pittsburgh Pirates took over first place by blanking the Chicago Cubs, 2-6, in other NL games Monday night. In the American League, Tom Cheney of the Washington Senators pitched a four-hit, 4-1 victory over the Los Angeles Angels and Wayne Causey batted the Kansas City Athletics to a 6-5 triumph over the Detroit Tigers. Rain washed out the Cleveland IndiansChicago White Sox game. All other AL teams were idle. The Mets didn’t surrender to the Phils without a fight After wasting an early 3-0 lead, they staged a three-run rally in the ninth before reliever Jack Baldschun fanned Rod Kapehl with the bases loaded for the final out. It was a typical performance by the Mets, who stranded 12 baserunners and committed three errors. Tony Taylor knocked in three runs for Philadelphia and Frank Thomas hit a two-run homer for the Mets. Ray Washburn limited the Colts to seven hits and struck out eight in running his record to 3-0. Bill White and Carl Sawatski hit solo homers for the Cards, who collected eight of their 11 hits off loser Ken Johnson. The Pirates took advantage of a two-base error by Billy Williams in the sixth inning to beat the Cubs. Earl Francis was pitching a six-hit shutout when his arm tightened in the eighth inning. Bob Veale and Roy Face mopped up to preserve the shutout.

Controversial Balk Rule Is Defended NEW YORK (UPI) — National League President Warren Giles said today the controversial balk rule “will contiue to be enforced” despite two new angry broadsides from St. Louis .Manager Johnny Keane and Houston General Manager Paul Richards. Dismayed over the unprecedented number of balks already called so far this season, Keane said, “If the umpires keep calling the balk rule the way they have been, it will decide the National League pennant race.” Richards was even more upset, especially since his Houston pitchers, who had only five balks called against them all last year, already have been charged with 10 balks so far this season. In a blistering wire to Giles, he said the balk call had better “return to some sensible basis before baseball and the National League become a complete joke.” “How long is this comic opera going to continue?’* Richards inquired in the telegram. “The balk calls of National League umpires are ridiculous for the fans and are ruining the game for everyone concerned.” From his office in Cincinnati, Giles disagreed with Keane's contention that the balk rule ultimately will decide the NL pennant winner. "It won’t decide the pennant any more than any other rule,” he said. “The rule is being enforced just as it is written in the book,” Giles added. “I think the umpires should enforce the rules- No balks are being called that are not balks. And I don't anticipate anything being done about it unless the rules committee changes the rule.” Richards claims the Houston pitchers are so confused they’re thinking of the balk rule all the time instead of thinking about pitching.
