Ellis Burton Ties Record As Cubs Win By MILTON RICHMAN UPI Sports Writer Oft-traded / Ellis Burton of the Cubs, a tough man to keep tabs on because he never stays in one place too long, landed in the record book for keeps today—alongside Mickey Mantle. That’s a pretty tall order for a guy with an undistinguished .224 lifetime batting average, but Bur-, ton managed it Thursday night” when he became the eighth player in major league history to hit home runs from both sides of the plate in one game. The shopworn, switch-hitting Burton, whose only other claim to fame is that he plays a hot trumpet off the field, accomplished Thursday night’s feat while helping the Cubs beat the Braves, 10-2. Batting right-handed, the 27-year-old Chicago outfielder set off a six-run rally with his fifth homer of the year of loser Denny Lemaster in the first inning, then connected for his sixth homer while batting left-handed against reliever Ron Piche in the seventh. Joined Select Group Burton thus joined a select group of seven other major leaguers who switch hit home runs in the same game. Most notable of the group is Maintle, who has done it on nine different occasions. Most recent before Burton was Maury Wills of the Dodgers, who did it last year. In addition to his two homers Thursday night, Steve Boros and Jim Schaffer also homered for the Cubs • as Larry Jackson set down the Braves on seven hits for his 12 th victory against nine losses. Lemaster’s loss was his sixth compared with seven-victor- ’ • ■ ■ -■ - By winning, the Cubs solidified their hold on fourth (dace and moved to within 6% games of the idle first-place Dodgers. The St. Louis Cardinals climbed into a tie for second place with San Francisco by defeating the Cincinnati Reds, 3-2', in the only other National League game scheduled. Game Rained Out The only game scheduled in the American League "was Boston “at Baltimore and it was rained out. George Altman’s fifth "inning homer off Joey Jay broke up a 1-1 tie and paced the Cardinals to their victory over the Reds. Benched recently for weak hitting, Altman collected three of the Cardinals’ seven hits. St. Louis increased its lead to 3-1 in the eighth on a walk, a single by Charlie James and Tim McCarver’s sacrifice fly and that turned out to be the winning run when the Reds scored once in the ninth. Southpaw Curt Simmons won his 10th although he needed help from Ron Taylor and Bobby Shantz in the ninth. The hard luck Jay gave up six hits in seven innings and was charged with his 15th loss against four victories. Mantles Winners Os Kitty Title The Mantles whipped the Foxes by a 10-6 score to win the McMillen Kitty, league tournament this morning. Tom Patch led the Mantles with four hits in four trips to the plate, and Gray pitched the distance to record the victory. Line score: Mantles. 21-403—10 9 Foxes 10-050— 6 8 R H Gray and Costello: Eichhorn, Patch and Patch, Schirack.

PAUL (UPI) — Some of the golfers playing in the $35,000 St. Paul Open claim the greens “are as hard as a rock.” But the granite-texture wasn’t enough to stop 71 of the 137 entries from shooting par or better. Jim Ferree, Corona, Calif., led a band of 57 under-par shooters Thursday with an eight-under 64 to take the first round edge and come within six strokes of the course record. Don Fairfield, Perdido Bay, Fla., was one shot back at 65 and Jerry Barber, 1,961 PGA “bhampion, was third with a 66. Ferree’s best showing was at the Western Open in Chicago a week ago when he tied for 13th place and picked up SI,OOO. Jack Rule Jr., Cedar Rapids, lowa, and Jerry Pittman, Tulsa, Okla., were tied for fourth place with 67. Bunched together at 68 were Randy Glover, Florence,-N.C.: Raymond Floyd, Fayetteville, N. C.; Tommy Jacobs, Bermuda Dunes,* Calif.; John Cook, Minnetonka, Minn.; Brucke Crampton. Sidney, Australia; and Jacky Cupit, Corona, Calif. Dow Finsterwald, Tequesta, Fla., and Ken Venturi, Crystal River. Fla., were tied with seven others at 69. Defending champion Doug Sanders, Ojai, Calif., fired a 70. Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, and Gary Player were among the main golfers absent from the tourney. The field will be cut to 65 and ties after today's \-hole rqund and play will continue on through Sunday. International League Northern Division W »L Pct.

Today's Sport Parade (Reg. U.S. Pat. Os ft By OSCAR FRALEY UPI Sports Writer NEW YORK (UPI) — The New York football Giants were boarding a jetliner when a stewardess firmly blocked Y. A. Tittle’s path. “Sorry, sir,” she said, “but this section is reserved for football players only.” Her action was easy to understand. Yelberton Abraham Tittle among his towering, youthful confederates hardly appears to be the public image of a great quarterback. His head is almost com- . pletely devoid of hair. His face is lined. He stands six feet tall , but seems shorter. And, at 36, he could be in his mid-40’s. But the records, and his unchallenged leadership of the menacing Giants, are proof of how . looks can be deceiving. There may be only a thin fringe of gray hair around his jug-handle ears but there isn’t anything wrong . with his rubbery right arm. “Yat,” as he is known to his ' mates, has pitched the Giants to ; a pair of consecutive NFL divi- ' sional titles. He was the league’s most valuable player in 1961. Last season he set a league mark of 33 touchdown passes in one year and tied another mark with seven in one game. High Among Greats These heroics have moved him high among the all-time passing . greats. Currently he is second to Bobby Layne in completions, second to Layne in attempts, third ' to Layne and Norm Van Brocklin in yards gained and fourth in total touchdown passes. He could • grab the yards gained and completions records before the sea- ! son is over. Which is all the more remarkable when you consider that, while this is his 16th year of pro football, he lost fpr the first two years? That’s because* - he spent the first two years after graduation from LSU with Baltimore ih the defunct All f American Conference. , After that came one year with the Colts in the NFL, 10 years ' with the San Francisco 49’ers and the past two with the Giants. The Giants shudder to think what they would do if anything happened to Tittle which, at the 1 lengthening stage of hj s career, ■ is unusual for him. Because throughout his career he always - has had to fight desperately for ■ a first string berth. Moves In t As a Colt rookie he had to beat i off Bud Schwenk and Charlie i O’Rourke. When the Colts migrated -to the NFL, Tittle held off prize rookie Adrian Burke of Baylor. Moving on to San Francisco, he soon took over from Frankie Albert and, as the years went by. defended his top spot against such challengers as Maury Duncan, Jim Powers, Earl Morrall and John Brodie.~ * Injuries and an improved Brodie finally cost him his first string role in 1959 but he took a new’ lease on life when he moved to the Giants in 1961. Since then, Tittle, a native of Marshall, Tex., who will be 37 in late October, has fired the Giants to 22 victories in 28 games. Tittle is sensitive about his baldness, which has caused hjs mates also to dub him “colonel slick” and the “bald eagle.” Mention of it can cause stdrm clouds to gather in his deepest blue-grey eyes. But there’s no kidding about his being a football player. Even if he doesn’t look like one.
