The loss was the seventh for the local club against three wins. Decatur outhit Manchester 9-5, but the visitors used their hits to better advantage. A walk to Connor, a single by Holderman, a sacrifice, and a onebase bingle by Vadermark accounted for Manchester’s winning runs ii) the seventh frame. The Commodores missed a golden opportunity in their half of the seventh when they loaded the bases with one out, but failed to produce a run. Load Bases John Lose singled to open the inning, and after one out Terry Myers and Ed Kohne also singled to load the sacks. Connor, Manchester's hurler, got Jim McGill to hit into a quick double play to end the threat. Coach George Waning’s nine had drawn first blood when they tallied a run in the opening on singles by catcher Dick Omlor and hurler Terry Myers, who once again was the victim of a lack of International League Northern Division W L Pct.

Jackets Beat Huntington By 5-0 Wednesday Senior righthander Dave Gay twirled a nifty one-hit shutout as Decatur’s Yellow Jackets rang up their eighth win ’of the season ggainst four losses Wednesday, besting Huntington, 5-0, at the Viking diamond. Gay was in charge all the way and his mates backed Mm with five runs scored in the middle three innings in the non-confer-ence tilt. Huntington’s pitcher, Phil Underhill, spoiled Gay's bid for a no-hitter when he singled to lead off the fifth inning. The Decatur hurler allowed only one base runner after Underhill’s single. . The tall righthander struck out ten and issued only three walks while chalking up his second win of the season. He was the winning pitcher when Decatur rallied to best the same team last week at Worthman Field, 8-7. Take Lead Four Huntington errors helped the Jackets to threaten in the first, two innings, but they failed to score. Catcher Greg Ladd doubted' to start the third frame and rode home on . brother Bob’s single, giving Gay all the margin he needed. The Jackets added three runs to their total in the fourth frame, one on a homer by Max Elliott, and scored their final tally "in the fifth ining. Jerry Egly walked to start the fourth and was sacrificed to second by John Custer. Egly rode home on a single by Denny Cookson. Cookson was picked off first, but moments later Elliott blasted a home run, the first for the Decatur team this season, to score the second run of the inning. Greg Ladd followed with a single, and for the second time in two innings, scored on a single by brother Bob. The Jackets added their final run in the next inning when Bill Conrad clouted a triple to open the inning and scored in an error.

“Must” Gage The Jackets travel to Bluffton this afternoon in a “must” NEIC game with the Tigers. Coach Bill McColly’s club is still “alive” in the conference, with a 3-1 record, one of three teams in the league with only one loss. None is unbeaten, after New Haven beat Angola earlier this week. The Jackets are scheduled to play New Haven there Monday, and Columbia City here Wednesday. Decatur AB R H E Cookson, 3b 4 0 10 Elliott, cf - 4 11 0 G. Ladd, c 3 2 2 0 Gay, p 4 0 0 0 B.

Stuart Paces Red Sox To Pair Os Wins By United Press International Some guys t? ack U P to ti* e P a Y window, but Dick Stuart had to be different —he went clear over the wall. Twice! That's the friendly left-field wall at Fenway Park and what better time to hit a couple of balls over it than on pay day? They passed out the pay checks all over the majors Wednesday and Stuart picked the occasion to pace the second-place Boston Red Sox to a 9-3 and 7-6 twi-night sweep over the Los Angeles Angels with a grand slam homer ip the opener and a three-run homer in the nightcap. It was kind of a mixed-up night for the ex-Pittsburgh first baseman. The Fenway Park crowd of 12,789 booed him for committing his first two errors of the season but also cheered him for hitting his sixth homer with the bases full in the third inning of the first game and his seventh homer with two on in the third inning of the finale. Stuart drove In a total of seven runs during the twin bill, and although his first homer assured Bill Monbouquette his third victory, Russ Nixon had to break a 6-all tie with an eighth-inning double in the nightcap to bring reliever Dick Radatz his third triumph. The league-leading Chicago White Sox came from behind to down the Detroit Tigers 7-4. the Cleveland Indians blanked the Kansas City A’s 1-0, the Baltimore Orioles walloped the Washington Senators 7-1, and the New York Yankees ran their winning streak to four games with a 4-3 win over the Minnesota Twins Dave Nicholson’s eighth home run with one on highlighted a 12hit attack on four Tiger pitchers that carried the White Sox to their 11th victory in their last 14 games. Jim (Mudcat) Grant set down the A’s on two hits to even his record at 3-3 with the Indians. Tito Francona singled home the only run of the game in the first inning off Orlando Pena, who suffered his third loss in seven decisions. Home runs by Jim Gentile, Jackie Brandt and Jerry Adair powered the Orioles to their victory over the Senators. Milt Pappas yielded only three hits, including a homer by Ken Retzer, in winning his third straight without a defeat. The slumping Twins built a 3-0 lead against the Yankees but -Mickey Mantle hit a two-run homer in the sixth inning and Elston Howard singled home the winning run to cap a two-run rally in the eighth.

Sandy Koufax Hurls Victory For Dodgers By United Press International Sandy Koufax exposed one of baseball’s oldest myths today by proving a pitcher doesn’t necessarily have to take his lumps the next time out after a no-hitter. Down through the years relatively few major league pitchers have managed to go the distance in their next game following a no-hit performance. Koufax, who hurled a no-hitter against the San Francisco Giants last Saturday night, not only went nine innings Wednesday night but did better than that, going 12 while leading the Los Angeles Dodgers to a 3-2 extrainning triumph over the Philadelphia Phillies. The southpaw fastbailer gave up 11 hits but struck out 12 and did not walk a man. It ‘Was only the second time in his major league career that he did not give up a walk during an entire game. -<s» Ron Fairly provided Koufax with his fifth victory by singling home Jim Gilliam from second base in the bottom of the 12th. Reliever Johnny Klippstein had retired 14 straight batters before Gilliam singled in the 12th and moved up to second base on Bob Oldis’ passed ball Elsewhere in the National League, the Milwaukee. Braves defeated the St. Louis Cardinals 9- the league-leading San Francisco Giants shaded the Pittsburgh Pirates 4-3, the Cincinnati Reds crushed the Chicago Cubs 10- and the New York Mets snapped the Houston Colts’ sixgame winning streak 7-4. In the American League, the first-place Chicago White Sox topped the Detroit Tigers 7-4. the Boston Red Sox took two from the Los Angeles Angels 9-3 and 7-6, the Cleveland Indians beat the Kansas City A’s 1-0, the New York Yankees downed the Minnesota Twins 4-3, and the Baltimore Orioles defeated the Washington Senators 7-1. Bob Hendley of the Braves held the Cardinals hitless for 8 1-3 innings before Curt Flood tripled. The Milwaukee southpaw gave up two more hits in the ninth and settled for a three-hitter and his fourth victory. Denis Menke connected for his fourth homer of the year off Curt Simmons, who Jost his first game after five straight victoriesThe Giants were limited to four hits by loser Don Cardwell and two Pirate relievers but rallied for four runs in the fifth to‘win. Cardwell, now 1-5, walked winning pitcher Juan Marichal (5-3) with the bases full in the fifth and hit Felipe Alou with a pitch to force in another run. An error by third baseman Bob Bailey on Willie Mays’ hard smash produced two more runs. Frank Robinson and rookie Pete Rose each .collected three hits to pace the Reds to their victory over the’ Cubs as Jim Maloney won his first game of the season with help from Al Worthington. Southpaw Al Jackson scattered nine hits and struck out six to post his fourth victory for the Mets in their game with the Colts. The Mets took advantage of three unearned runs to hand Ken Johnson his sixth defeat in seven decisions. Trap Shoot Planned Sunday Afternoon The St. Mary’s and Blue Creek Conservation club will hold a trap shoot Sunday afternoon, starting at 1 o'clock. The club grounds are located one mile west of Willshire, O. All members are urged to attend Sunday’s shoot. '

Kohne & Sons Painters 31*4 16*4 43*4 Parnelli Jones Sets Speedway Speed Record INDIANAPOLIS (UPD—World racing champion Graham Hill, just back from England, hoped to get in some practice today for the "500” qualifications at the Indianapolis Speedway, but the weatherman had other ideas Forecasts called for more of Wednesday’s scattered showers which kept the track closed all afternoon, an unexciting climax to an exciting day during which Parnelli Jones hit an unofficial 153.139 miles per hour for the fastest time ever on the 2-mile oval. Hill, a 34-year-old Londoner, had no illusions, about matching that speed when asked to comment about the Californian’s performance soon after his arrival by plane in Indianapolis late Wednesday. Hill said he was “impressed” with Jones’ driving and said “although I can’t tell really, I think it would be very difficult for me to get to those speeds. I don't think I should be able to do 153 miles an hour.” When asked whom he thought might emerge from the qualifications with the pole position—which Jones had last year—Hill said, “We’ve seen an indication of what Mr. Jones can do and I gather he can go quicker. He would appear at the moment to be the favorite.” Hill almost didn’t make it here because of European racing commitments he managed to have cancelled at the last minute in order to drive for car owner Mickey Thompson of Long Beach, Calif. Meanwhile, conversation at the Speedway still centered around the 11 electrifying 150 mph-plus laps Jones ran on the unofficial clock early Wednesday. Only last Saturday, Jones became the first driver at the Speedway ever to hit 152 miles an hour. Jones is holder of oneand four-lap records, both set during qualifications last year at speeds above the “magic” barrier of 150 mph. Two other drivers also were clocked at speeds better than 150 miles an hour Wednesday. They were Scotland's Jimmy Clark, who was timed at 150.880, and Jim Hurtubise of North Tonawanda, N.Y., who reached an unofficial 151-plus. Other speedsters during the morning were Dan Gurney of Costa Mesa, Calif., 149.950 mph, and 1961 “500” winner A. J- Foyt with 149.5 mph.
