Julius Boros Winner Sunday In Buick Open GRAND BLANC, Mich. (UPI)— Big Julius Boros today credited his golfing comeback' to a Georgia thief. • When the hammering Hungarian's putter was stolen at the Masters tournament at Augusta in April, he reached into his closet and pulled out an old one. “It might have been one of 'the best breaks I ever had," Boros said Sunday after walking off with the Buick Open championship and its accompanying $9,000 purse that moved him into third place on this year’s money-win-ning list with a $43,325 bankroll. Using the same old putter, the likeable “Moose" ended a threeyear victory drought ’ last* month by winning the Colonial Invitation and added a second and a fourthplace finish on the tour before showing up here for the Buick Open. Although Boros went into Sunday’s final 36-hole grind with a four-stroke lead over the field, golf’s wiseacres figured the 43-year-old Connecticut Yankee didn’t have the stamina to hang in there. But the Moose fooled ’em all by shooting a 68 in the morning third round and following up with a final round 69. That gave him a record-breaking, 14-under-par 274 and a five-shot victory over former PGA king Dow Finsterwald. Boros, in joining Jack Nicklaus and Arnold Palmer as the only multiple winners on the current tour, chopped eight strokes off the Buick Open record of 282, held jointly by Art Wall and Mike Finsterwald made a good run at Boros in the final round, posting a 67, but he stUl had to settle for second money of $4,600. Big George Bayer, finished with a 68 that gave him third place with a 280, one shot in front of Canada's George Knudson. Wall wound up with a 283 to tie Mason Rudolph and Gene Littler for fifth place. Pony League Twin Bill Is Postponed Tonight's Pony League doubleheader that was postponed will be played Wednesday at Worthman •Field.

Colls Win In First Sunday Night Contest By MILTON RICHMAN UPI Sports Writer Sunday night baseball may never replace drive-in movies but the customers sure liked it because they got a chance to cool off and see the hottest pitching staff in the majors at the same time. A crowd of 17,437, well above Houston’s day-time average, took in major league baseball’s first Sunday night game in history Sunday night and whooped in delight as the Colts handed the San Francisco Giants their seventh straight defeat, 3-0. The whole idea of Sunday night games was to beat the intense day-time heat in Houston and it worked out fine when the game was played in pleasant 79-degree temperature compared with 95 degrees during the day., Houston’s pitchers have been even hotter than that recently, yielding a total of only two runs in the Colts’ last three games. Knucklebailer Skinny Brown, a 38-year-old American League retread, was Houston’s pitching star Sunday night wheri he took over for starter Dick Farrell in the third inning and held the Giants to one hit over the last 6 1-3 innings for his first victory of the season. Yields Lone Single Brown, who struck out six and did not walk a batter, gave up only a fourth inning single to Willie Mays, who was wiped out stealing. The veteran, right-hander, picked up in May as a free agent after being released by the Yankees, was summoned from the bullpen after Farrell pulled a back muscle. Farrell had given up three hits. The Colts scored two of their three runs off loser Jack Sanford, now 7-5, with Carl Warwick singling home the first one, John Bateman singling home the second and Howie Goss’ double accounting . for the final one in the eighth. ~ Dodgers Beat Cubs The first-place Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Chicago Cubs, 11-8, despite three homers by Ernie Banks; the New York Mets took the opener from the St. Louis Cardinals, 8-7, but lost the nightcap, 10-4; Philadelphia defeated Cincinnati, 8-7, in 10 innings, then dropped,, the -second game, 3-1, and PftOStirgh blanked Milwaukee, 4-0, but lost the finale, 5-3. In the American League, the Chicago White Sox took over first place with a 4-3 victory ,over the Kansas City A’s while the Balti, more Orioles tumbled to second place when the Boston Red Sox

A four-run barrage in the fifth, which included back-to-back homers by Ron Santo and Banks, routed starter Sandy Koufax, but the Dodgers kayoed loser’ Dick Ellsworth with a four-run rally of their own in the sixth. Tommy Davis had four of the winners’ 13 hits, including a homer. The Mets won their first game from the Cardinals with the help of three gift runs and turned around and presented the Red Birds with four tainted runs in the nightcap.

"The Bullpen" By Bob Shraluka Hutker Jackson THE Bullpen is warmed up and ready to go into its third season of reporting news and notes from Decatur's six-team Little League and the seven-team county Pony loop. AS has been the custom in the past two seasons, the Bullpen’s staff of “relivers” will select each week a pitcher and hitter whose performances the preceding week stood out above all others. INITIAL honors of the 1963 season go to a pair of Tigers, Dave Jackson as “Hitter of the Week,” and Alan Hutker as “Pitcher of the week.” THESE two young men got their team off to a "flying start” this season, as they pitched and batted the Tigers to an opening game 7-3 decision over the White Sox, who are defending champions and despite the opening loss appear a good bet to defend their title. THIRD baseman Jackson whacked out a pair of homers, two of the four hit by his club, in leading the batting barrage. Hutker, who also clouted a home run in the game, allowed the White Sox only four hits and three runs, shutting them out over the last 'hree innings after his teammates had given him a two-run lead. RAIN is playing havoc with both the Little and Pony Leagues, as already ,t h re e regularly scheduled and one makeup game of the Little League have been washed out. In addition, two Pony League contests have already been postponed. MR. Weatherman permitting, a full slate of games is on tap this week. Tonight the Yankees and Senators tangle at Homestead. A doubleheader is scheduled Tuesday at Worthman Field, a single Wednesday and two games Thursday. Some postponements might be added also. THE Decatur Braves open their season Monday against Geneva, and the other two Decatur clubs tangle ,in the second game. The Cubs and Barves will travel to

AN early feature of the Pony League season comes about Monday evening in the second contest when the Cubs and Cardinals tangle. The two teams finished last season with 9-3 reoords each, and the Cardinals won the regular season title in a playoff. The Cubs then defeated the Cardinals in the championship game of the tournament for that title. EVIDENTLY those “lively” balls the Major Leaguers are always -hollering about have invaded the local Little League. Already this season seven home runs have been hit — and only three games have been played! The Tigers are really hitting the long ball, as they have accounted for six of the seven hit thus far. The seven home runs represents almost half the entire total of last season in the Little League. JACKSON and Jim Laurent of the Tigers lead the homer-hitting parade with two apiece. Laurent clouted one in each of the Tigers’ two games last week. Pat Kohne and Hutker of the Tigers also have four-base blasts, and Rich Fisher of the White Sox owns the other four-bagger. A NEW league has been added to the local summer program this season, the Wildcat League. The Bullpen wiU also "hurl” information to the fans about the new league during the course of the season. The league got underway today with organizational meetings, and assistant coaches are due to be announced this week. THE Daily Democrat will carry each evening the week's schedule of games and fans are asked to keep an eye on the schedule for upcoming contests.

Ken Mcßride Halts Twins' Winning Skein By, MILTON RICHMAN UPI Sports Writer Grieving Ken Mcßride had little desire for baseball Sunday. No one in the world would have blamed him had he decided not to pitch. But he forced himself to and turned in a magnificent job, considering his heart and mind were 2,400 miles away. Only a few hours before he was scheduled to pitch against the Minnesota Twins at Los Angeles Sunday, the Angel right-hander was informed that his younger brother, Clifton, 24, had been killed in a Cleveland auto accident. Manager Bill Rigney told McBride he could leave for Cleveland immediately and another pitcher would take his turn. Mcßride said he’d rather pitch before joining his family. Defeats Twins "I felt it would take my mind off what happened,” he said, then went out and beat the Twins, 4-2, although he needed Mel Nelson’s help in the ninth. "I thought about what happened back in Cleveland a couple of times while I was , working a couple of long innings but I tried to keep it out of my mind,” he revealed later. The Twins, who had a four game winning streak going, looked as if they were going to kayo Mcßride in a hurry when they scored a run off him in the first inning and another in the second on Jimmie Hall’s homer. But the 27-year-old blanked them thereafter without any trouble until he put two men on in the ninth. Nelson came in at that point and struck cut pinch hitters Wally Post and Johnny Goryl to preserve Mcßride’s sixth victory. Mcßride fanned seven and allowed seven hits in the 8 1-3 innings he pitched. The Angels got to Jim Perry for three runs in the fourth inning and picked up one more off Ray Moore in the eighth. Chisox In First Elsewhere in the American League, the Chicago White Sox took over first place with a 4-3 Jriumph over the Kansas City
