Dodgers Drop Double Header To Milwaukee By DICK JOYCE , DPI Sports Writer You say you were thrown out of both ball games Sunday for umpire-baiting? Your team lost a doubleheader arid you were hit in the face with a beer container? Chin up, Walter Alston, your Los Angeles Dodgers are leading the National League by six games and you have a nine-game home stand coming up. Despite 7-2 and 13-7 losses to the Milwaukee Braves Sunday, the Dodgers wound up their successful road trip with a 10-4 mark, giving them a six-game lead over the St. Louis Cardi-. nals. When the road trip began, the Dodgers held only a threegame lead .over the San Francisco Giants. The usually quiet and restrained Alston, with the Dodgers’ disastrous collapses of the past two seasons indelible in. his mind, was. ejected in the sixth inning of the first game by umpire Tom Gorman. In the first inning of the nightcap, umpire Stan Landes gave the Dodger manager the thumb. And then a Milwauke fan belted Alston with a paper beer container. Alston claimed that Bob Sadowski was balking in the opener and then became incensed when a balk was called on rookie Nick Willhite of the Dodgers in the second game. In other NL games, the Cardinals rapped out 17 hits to beat the Houston Colts, 5-4; the Giants clubbed 16 hits in downing the Cincinnati Reds, 10-5; the Philadelphia Phillies swbpt a doubleheader from the New York Mets, 8-0 and 7-2, and Pittsburgh and Chicago split, the Cubs taking the openqr, B-l, and the Pirates th® nigltfignp. 6-5 innings. »’ The NeW York Yankees won a twin bill from the Cleveland Indians 5-2 and 5-4; the Detroit Tigers trimmed the Los Angeles Angels, 8-2; the Minnesota Twins defeated the Washington Senators, 3-2; the Kansas City Athletics edged the Baltimore Orioles, 3-2, and the Boston Red Sox stopped the Chicago White Sox, 3-2, with rain washing out the scheduled second game. Milwaukee clobbered eight Dodger pitchers for 26 hits, ' including homers by Hank Aaron, Denis Menke, Joe Torre and Gene Oliver, in sweeping {he twin bill. Sadowski earned his first major league victory in the opener while reliever Tony Cion, inger got credit for the secondgame triumph. Bob Gibson pitched an eighthitter and George Altmari and Ken Boyer slammed homers in pacing die Cardinals to victory. Dick Groat drove home three runs for St. Louis. Jim Davenport, Felipe Alou

Tigers, Yanks Score Wins In Little League The Tigers chalked up their eighth win in the local Little League Saturday, whipping the Red Sox, 6-1, behind the hurling of Gary Williams, while the Yankees outslugged the Senators, 15-11, in the second game. Williams, the Tigers’ lefty, scattered six hits and allowed only a fourth inning run while leading his club to their eighth win against five losses. The Tigers gave Williams all the runs he needed when they tallied three times in the first inning on walks to Lynp Franz and Alan Hutker, Tim Bolinger’s two-run double and an error. Red Sox hurler Mick Gage, who suffered his first defeat of the season, settled down and shut out the Tigers over the next four innings until they erupted for three insurance runs in the top of the sixth. Walks to Dave Jackson and Bolinger and a single by Pat Kohne and Jim Laurent’s double chased home the three scores. •— Lone Run The Red Sox scored their lone run in the fourth when John Hackman singled and scored on a single by Tom Hullinger. — Williams fanned three and walked only one in recording his second win against one loss. Alan Busse had two of the six hits, both singles. Trailing by a run in the sixth inning, the Yankees exploded for nine runs and hung on for their fourth win against 10 losses, while handing the Senators their ninth defeat against four wins. Yanks Win Slugfest The Yanks scored first, tallying five times in the second inning on two walks, a fielder’s choice, and doubles by Jeff Snyder and Bob Johnson.

"The Bullpen" By Bob Shraluka K 5? INDIAN Mike Curtin and Tiger Jim Laurent are this weeks choices for “pitcher of the week,” and “hitter of the week” honors, respectively. CURTIN racked up the most important win of the season for his club Monday when he tossed a onehitter, at the White Sox for a 9-3 victory. The only hit off the righthander was a lead-off home run in the fourth inning by Dave Winteregg. Curtin struck out nine, walked five, as he enabled his team to move even with the White Sox in the all-important loss column. The Sox’ other two runs came in the first inning on a pair of Indian errors. LAURENT, the tall Tiger first sacker, who" has been hitting well all season, raised his season’s average to .364 with a five for seven performance last week. In a 12-3 romp over the Yanks Thursday he had a perfect night at the plate with a pair of doubles and a pair of singles in four trips, scoring two runs. He was on base all four times up in Saturday’s 6-1 win over the Red Sox, with a single and a walk, and reaching on errors twice. THIS week closes the regular season for the Little League, but several games remain to be played next week as makeup games of previous postponements. THAT big Indian win over the White Sox Monday really tightened up the L. L. standings. The Indians are a game back of the Sox but the two clubs are even in the loss column with three defeats apiece, as the Tribe has two more games to play than the defending champs. The Tigers, in third place, have been mathematically eliminated from pennant contention. CATCHER Tim Bolinger of the Tigers has boosted his leagueleading batting average to an amazing .621, with 18 hits in 29 trips. Teammate Alan Hutker is right on his heels with an also fine .564 mark on 22 hits in 39 at bats. Mike Schnepf of the Indians has 16 hits in 33 trips for a .485 mark, while Red Soxer Ken Gause is 15 for 32, an average of .467; White Soxer Tom Schultz is 18 for 41, a .439 mark; and Dan Pettibone of the Senators is 16 for 39, a. .410 average. ‘ «
TEN others are hitting .300 or more, and are as follows: McConnell, Yankees .391; Laurent, Tigers .364; , Alan Bedwell, Indians, .350; Fisher, White Sox, .343; Brown, Tigers, .342; Call, Yankees, .324; Mendez, Senators, .323; Hullinger, Red Sox, .314; Winteregg, White Sox, .311; Rich, Yankees, .300. THERE is not a single unbeaten pitcher in the league after Rick Archer and Brett Lutes, of the White Sox and Mick Gage of tne Red Sox have suffered their first losses. Archer and Dave Wlntzregg of the White Sox and Mike Schnepf of the Indians own the top marks with five wins and a single loss apiece. PAT Kohne of the Tigers has a 4-2 record and Curtin is now 3-1. Gage is now 2-1, as are Gary Williams of the Tigers, and Max Bedwell of the Indians. Alan Hutker of the Tigers and Ron Landrum of the Senators own 2-2 records. No other hurles has chalked up more than two wins. WINTEREGG and Kohne also turned in one-hitters last week but none were quite as important as curtin’s. Winteregg threw a shutout at tiie Senators in a 5-0 win, and Kohne beat the Yanks 12-3. Lefty Gary Williams also came up with a fine Job when he scattered

THE rainy weather has also fouled up plans for the Pony League tournament. Several regular season games, which should have been played previously, will be made up this week, with the tournament stalling the end of the week or the first of next week. THE Cubs from Decatur still hold onto first place by a narrow margin, with the deciding tile on tap for tonight. Hie Cubs stand at 7-3 and Geneva is only a half game back with a 7-4 record. The two clubs tangle this evening at Worthman Field in the second game of a doubleheader. DECATUR’S other two teams, the Braves and Cardinals, battle at 6 o’clock this evening with the winner taking sole possession of third place. Each stands at 6-5 for the season, one and one-half games off the pace. PLANS were announced in Saturday’s Daily Democrat for a tournament and all-start games in the Northwest Tiger division.

The big AA dragster careened out of control, flipped end over end and plowed into an area where seconds before fans were standing while watching the National Hot Rod Association-sanc-tioned time trials. A front wheel struck Alan Butler, 17, Indianapolis. He died a few hours later in Methodist Hospital of head injuries and a badly mangled leg. The driver, James McHale, 45, Clarksville, was in critical condition. Officials said his life was saved by the roll bar on his homebuilt car. The dragster, although just barely beginning to move when it first went out of control, was capable of speeds up to. 180 miles an hour in a quarter of a mile. The car hurtled over a guard rail and a chain link fence at high speed. The auto broke up on impact and a portion of the front end slipped away and crashed into three parked cars. The Btrtler youth was sitting on one of the cars. About 7,000 persons were on hand for the races, when the accident happened.
