Indians Reduce White Sox Lead In Little League Mike Curtin tossed a nifty onehitter to lead the Indians to a 9-3 victory over the White Sox in a Little League game Monday evening, and cut. the Sox margin to only one-half game. * The decision was the second in four nights for the Indians over the White Sox, as they had beaten them 3-2 Friday night. The loss cuts the Sox record to 10-3, while the Indians boosted their record to 9-3. The only White Sox hit off Curtin came in the fourth inning when Dave Winteregg blasted his second home run of the season with the bases, empty. The Indian righthander fanned nine and walked five, as the Indians handed Sox lefthander Rick Archer bis first loss after five wins. The Sox scored a pair of unearned runs in the opening inning without tlje benefit of a hit, but the Indians took over the lead in the second frame, scoring three times on singles by Dan Pierce and Mack Jones, a double by Jerry and Kent Reed’s single. R'ick Koenig blasted his first home run of the season in the third inning with Jones aboard to boost the Indian lead to 5-2, which Winteregg’s homer in the fourth cut to 5-3. The Indians, however, bounced back and sewed up the game with four tallies in the fourth when Mark Cochran reached base on a fielder’s choice, Curtin doubled, Mike Schnepf got on on an error and tall Alan Bedwell bombed out his third home run of the season.

PGA Tourney: Opens Thursday In Hot Texas DALLAS (UPI) — The golfers were calling it “the Blow Torch Open” today rather than the PGA championship: Finding the rolling Dallas Country Club course to their liking, the competitors in the 45th annual PGA tournament centered their complaints on the searing Texas heat. “This isn’t going to be a contest won by the best golfer, it’s going to be a question of survival,” said big George Bayer. “If anyone can stand up under this heat for four days he can win it.” U.S. Open champion Julius Boros, who always had done well in the Texas heat, checked the thermometer before ,he went out for a practice round—marking his return to golf after a two-week layoff. The temperature was 95. "Man, it’s hot,’’ he said. “But I’ve got to get the feel of those clubs again.. “Maybe it would be smart to stay off the course until the tournament starts Thursday because you are going to need every ounce of energy you have to finish if it stays this hot. And in Texas, it usually stays hot.” But he admitted that the Texas heat hasn’t been unkind to him. A former PGA champion, Jackie Burke, predicted that the frying heat could back golf’s “big names” off the board and sweep one of the Southwest’s own sharp shooters to victory. - “You’ve got to become accustomed to this heat and the only way you can do that is to live here. These golfers just can’t come in here, practice a couple of days, and become adjusted to this blistering sun. “This is a track for a lean horse.” Carl Erskine To Be Here Friday Morning The general public, including all Little, Pony, or other league member, are invited to attend the Wildcat League school Friday morning at 9 o’clock at Worthman Field at which Carl Erskine will school the Wildcat league members in the fundamentals of play, George Waning, Wildcat League director, said today. All other scheduled activity for Friday morning will be conceited, but the regular afternoon schedule will be in effect. Die “big league” school will be moved to Worthman field to provide ample seating for wish to observe. Double Header At Worthman Wednesday Pony League president R. O. Wynn announced today that the Decatur Braves and Adams Central Pony League teams will play at Worthman Field Wednesday at 6 P. m. In a second game, the Indians and Senators of the local Little League will tangle. The game was originally scheduled for the Homestead diamond but has been mewed to the Worthman Field diamond.

Don Noftebart Hurls Shutout Win Over Mels By MILTON RICHMAN UPI Sports Writer Everything happens to Don Nottebart. First he pitches a no-hitter but it’s not actually a no-hit, no-run game. - - And then he pitches a fine fourhit shutout for the Houston Colts Monday night, but technically it won’t go into the books as a shutout. ‘Maybe I’m just not living right," he laughed. “I guess I’ll never come closer to pitching a shutout.” Nottebart missed by only one final pitch Monday night, and even though he hurled a no-hittef two months ago, he still has not pitched a shutout in the majors. Here was the situation: The Mets had broken a 15game losing streak with a 14-5 victory over the Colts in the opener of a twi-night doubleheader. Injured Ankle Nottebart zipped through the first 8 2-3 innings of the nightcap and then had two strikes on Jim Hickman with Houston leading. 8-0. He suddenly injured his right ankle pushing off the moUnd and needed help. "I couldn’t throw another pitch,” he said. So Hal Woodeshick came out of the bullpen, made only one pitch —a strike — and it was all over with the Colts on top, 8-0. Nottebart failed to receive .credit lor. a shutout but he’s used to minor disappointments. There was even one connected with his May 17 no-hitter against the Phillies because they scored a run off him although Houston won the game, 4-1. "I’m not kicking as long as we win,” said the 27-year-old Colt righthander. The victory Monday night was his sixth of the season and first since his no-hitter. Roger Craig dropped his 13th game in a row and his 15th of the season when Colt catcher Jim Campbell tagged him for a three-run homer during a five-run first inning. Hit Grand Slam , In the opener, Met pitcher Carl Willey hit a grand slam homer during a six-run second inning rally which wrapped up the contest. Elsewhere in the National League, the Phillies ended the Dodge rs’ seven-game winning streak with a 5-4 victory in 11 innings, Cincinnati defeated Milwaukee, 4-3, in 12 innings, Pittsburgh swept a pair from San Francisco, 2-1 and 4-1, and the Cubs beat the Cardinals, 2-0. In the American League, the Athletics topped the Yankees, 11-10; in 12 innings, the Red Sox shaded the Angels, 2-1, the White Sox blanked the Orioles, 4-0, the Senators downed the Tigers, 11-6, and the Twins bombed the Indians, 13-1. Second baseman Nate Oliver’s two base error on Don Demeter's pop fly followed by Bob Oldis' single in the 11th off Ed Roebuck produced the winning run for the Phillies against the Dodgers. Don Drysdale started for the Dodgers but was raked for 10 hits, including a homer by Rpy Sievers, during the 4 2-3 innings he worked. Jack Baldschun was credited with his seventh victory in relief. Reds Strand 18 The Reds stranded 18 base runners in their game with the Braves but still won it with the help of John Edwards’ 12th inning triple. Frank Funk then walked two men intentionally and pinch hitter Ken Walters unintentionally, forcing in th’e winning run. Al Worthington, who fanned six batters in four scoreless innings of relief, was the winner. Eddie Mathews and Tommy Harper hit homers ■ ~ The Pirates, who had lost all four of,...their previous meetings with the Giants this season, beat Juan Marichal in the opener on 'Willie Stargell's ninth, inning single with the bases full. Joe Gibbon made it a sweep when he struck out eight in the nightcap, including Willie Mays three times. Al Mcßean posted his ninth triumph in the opener. Southpaw Dick Ellsworth was a one-man gang in the Cubs’ win over the Cardinals, limiting St. Louis to three hits in 6 2-3 innings and singling home both of runs off . Ernie. Brugliu in the seventh. Lindy McDaniel finished up and protected Ellsworth’s 13th victory.

Peters Tosses One-Hitter fir White Sox Win BY MILTON RICHMAN UPI Sports Writer The odds against a perfect game are better than 1,000 to 1 and they’re even higher that you’d never guess who ruined Gary Peters' bid for one. / The villain was rival pitcher Robin Roberts, who has seen a number of his own no-hitters ruined but never before had acted as the spoiler himself. Peters, a 26-year-old southpaw for the Chicago White Sox, struck out 13 batters and did not walk any in beating the Baltimore Orioles, 4-0. Were it not for Roberts, the kind of hitter no pitcher ever really worries about, would have become the first man ever to hurl a perfect game in regular major league competition since 1922 when Charlie Robertson did so for the White Sox. The only other perfect game since was Don Larsen’s World Scries masterpiece in 1956. Can’t Beat It “No one can ever beat that.”! Larsen still quips. “The best anyone can ever do is tie it.” Peters lost his chance to even tie It when Roberts singled up the middle with two out in the third inning, after which the White Sox lefty retired the last 19 batters in order to become only the third southpaw to pitch a complete game against the Orioles this season. J. C. Martin assured Peters his seventh victory with twb-run homer in the fifth and Tom McCraw also connected with one on in the '■eighth. The blows dealt Roberts his ninth loss in 15 decisions: The Kansas City As outlasted the first place New York Yankees, 11-10, in 12 innings, the Boston Red Sox nipped the Eats Angeles Angels, 2-1, Minnesota routed

Cleveland, 13-1, and Washington drqbbed Detroit, 11-8. The Athletics—Yankees marathon went three hours and 41 mihutes before Bill Stafford walked Jerry Lumpe with the bases full in the 12th to force in the winning run. The Yanks broke an 8all tie with three runs in the 11th but the A’s came right back with three runs of their own. Ed Charles hit a pair of homers and John Blanchard connected for one. Rookie reliever Pete Lovrich was credited with his first major league victory. Homer Settles Game — Frank Malzone’S 13th homer in the sixth inning off Don Lee settled matters between the Red Sox and Angels. The victory was Boston’s fifth in its last seven contests and the loss was the 12th for Los Angeles in its last 14 games. Bill Monbouquette brought his record to 13-6 although Dick Radatz cam? on in the eighth and pitched hitless ball. p.S ' ,' ' Dick Stigman’s four-hit pitching and three homers by the Twins" proved too much for the Indians. « Earl Battey hit his 20th homer with one on in the second inning, Don Mincher belted a two-run homer in the third and Harmon Killebrew- socked his 21st with one on in the seventh. All three homers came off Dick Donovan, whose record now is 6-6. The victory was Stigman’s eighth against nine losses. Home runs by Chuck Hinton and Bobo Osborne off Jim Bunning of the Tigers carried the Senators to their ninth victory ip 11 games. Don Rudolph registered his fifth victory although Ronnie Kline took over for him in the eighth following Bubba Phillips’ three-run homer.
