Stan Williams Hurls Six-Hit Win For Yanks By MILTON RICHMAN UPI Sports Writer Ain’t it just like those daffy Dodgers! They can’t do anything right in the National League but you ought to see them operate in the American. Walt Alston undoubtedly will be delighted to know that two of his old buddies, Ed Roebuck and Don Zimmer, are performing exactly like pennant winners with Wash ington. And the Dodger skipper also may break out in cheers to learn that another of his ex-employees, big Stan Williams, suddenly has become one of the hottest pitchers on the Yankees* staff. Combined Efforts Roebuck and Zimmer, each of whom send Alston best regards, combined their efforts Thursday to produce a 5-4 victory for the Senators against the Angels. Zimmer had two hits and drove in two runs while Roebuck registered his first American League victory during a four inning relief stint. Williams, coming off a one-hit-ter in his previous start, fired a six-hitter against the Red Sox and struck out seven as he hurled the Yankees to a 10-2 triumph. The former Dodger right-hander got most of his help from Johnny Blanchard. Blanchard, subbing for the injured Roger Maris in right field, drove in six runs with a grand slam homer and a two-run homer. Alston also may be interested in knowing that Yankee Manager Ralph Houk, sitting pretty : with an 8% game lead, now is playing his jayvees, possibly to let them earn their letters. Linz Had Three In addition to Blanchard’s two blasts, Phil Linz, filling in for Tony Kubek, collected three of the Yankees’ 13 hits, and parttimer Hector Lopez contributed a double and two singles. Boston’s only extra base blow was Dick Stuart’s 30th homer in the ninth inning. Minnesota bombed Baltimore 13-3, and Detroit crushed Kansas City 11-1 in the only other American League games scheduled. Over in the National, San Francisco remained three games behind first place Los Angeles with a 6-3 victory over Cincinnati after the Dodgers had beaten the Brayes 7-5. Houston stopped St. Louis 4-2, Philadelphia edged Chicago 4-3, and the Pirates beat the Mets 8-2. » Rookie Jimmie Hall drove in five runs and Vic Power had four hits in the Twins’ runaway against the Orioles. In addition to a pair of singles, Hall belted his 20th homer to tie a club record for homers by a left-handed hitter. Had 16 Hite Minnesota raked five Baltimore pitchers for 16 hits, including Don Mincher’s 13th homer and Bob Allison’s 26 th that helped Lee Stange coast to his sixth victory. Losing pitcher Milt Pappas (11-8) was kayoed in the third inning. The Tigers turned their game with the A’s into a rout with seven runs in the fourth inning. Bill Bruton’s bases-loaded single, which rolled through center fielder Bobby Del Greco’s legs for a three base error, was the crusher that helped knock out loser Diego Segui. Southpaw Hank Aguirre checked the A’s on eight hits to even his season record at 11-11. Equally important to him was the fact that he singled home one of the Tigers’ runs. He'll do that now and then — like once every three years. Merchant And Minor Leagues To Organize Hie Merchant bowling league will hold an organization meeting at 7 o'clock Tuesday evening at Villa Lanes. All team captains or other representatives should be prepent. The Minor league will meet at Villa at 8 o'clock next Thursday evening, and all teams are asked to be represented.-’

Dodgers End Three-Game Losing Slump National League Roundup ' By MARTIN LADER UPI Sports Writer If you’re interested in one good reason why the San Francisco Giants are giving the Los Angeles Dodgers another slow hotfoot, take a closer look at Willie Mays. Wonderful Willie got off to a slow start this season and the Giants had trouble keeping pace with iheir California neighbors. But Mays is warming to his task again, and in the Giant scheme of things he’s the man who keeps the fire burning. Just three weeks ago today, Mays was hitting .277 with 22 home runs and 55 runs-batted-in. Respectable, but npt up to par for a man with a .315 lifetime batting average. Oh, yes, San Francisco trailed the 'Dodgers by eight and one-half games at that time. In big ways and small. Mays has lifted the Giants back into the race over the last few weeks. His latest contribution was a routine single that drove home two runs, including the winning tally, as San Francisco whipped Cincinnati Reds 6-3 Thursday night. Hitting .293 The Say-Hey Kid now sports a .293 mark with 29 homers and 73 RBl’s. The Giants, coincidentally, have won 17 of their last 23 contests and trail Los Angeles by three games. The Dodgers broke a threegame losing slump by overcoming the Milwaukee Braves 7-5 in the National League’s only day game Thursday, and in other night contests the Houston Colts defeated the St. Louis Cardinals 4-2, the Philadelphia Phillies edged the Chicago Cubs 4-3, and the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the New York Mets 8-2. In the American League, the New York Yankees routed the Boston Red Sox 10-2; the Detroit Tigers toppled the Kansas City Athletics 11-1; the Washington Senators nipped the Los Angeles Angels 5-4; and the Minnesota Twins overpowered the Baltimore Orioles 13-3. Chicago and Cleveland were not scheduled. Cincinnati got off W"a on Vada Pinson’s 15th home run in the first inning, but the Giants retaliated with four runs in the fifth to go ahead for good. Mays drove in the final two runs of the inning after Joe Nuxhall hit Willie McCovey with a pitch to load the bases.. Tom Haller homered for the Giants in the sixth and they added another run in the eighth. Sanford Pitched Five Jack Sanford pitched only five innings for San Francisco, but it was enough to register his first triumph against the Reds since 1961. Billy Hoeft hurled scoreless ball over the final four innings to enable Sanford to even his season record at 12-12. Strong relief pitching by Ron Perranoski enabled the Dodgers to top Milwaukee. Ace Los Angeles Southpaw Sandy Koufax was knocked out after just one-third of an inning, the damaging blow being a three-run homer by Gene Oliver. Tommy Davis slammed a two-run homer to give the Dodgers a 5-4 lead in the third and they scored the winning run on John Roseboro’s sacrifice fly in the seventh. A three-run homer by John Bateman provided the difference for Houston and the Cardinals added to their own downfall with careless baserunning. Don Nottebart gained credit for his seventh victory although he needed ninth inning help from Hal Woodeshick. The Phillies rallied for four unearned runs after two were in the seventh to overcome a 3-0 Chicago lead built on Ellis Burton’s three-run homer. Starter Cal McLish won his 12th game. Don; Cardwell went all the way for the Pirates to pick up his 10th triumph and he aided his own cause with a two-run single during a four-run uprising by Pittsburgh in the fourth inning. Starter Galen Cisco was the loser for the Mets. International League Northern Division W. L. Pct. G.B.

Amos Alonzo Stagg 101 Years Old Today STOCKTON, Calif. (UPD—The grand old man of football, Amos Alonzo Stagg, celebrates his 101st birthday here today. Stagg is the only man in football’s Hall of Fame to be honored both as a player and a coach. He has resided at a rest home here for the past few years. His doctor, F. H. Busher, director of the Amos Alonzo Stagg Foundation, said Stagg feels “okay physically.’’ Tonight the “official” birthday party is scheduled at Simpson’s Restaurant in San Francisco and the public is invited. A huge cake with 101- candles will be served but out of deference to Stagg’s life-long principle of abstinence, there will be no liquor served. Stagg retired three years ago after 70 years of coaching. He was an end at Yale and was named to Walter Camp’s first AllAmerica team. He later coached at the University of Chicago and University of Pacific. During his 57 years as head coach his team won 309 games, lost 200 and had 35 ties. Stagg introduced the T-forma-tion, wingback formations, forward pass, man-in-motion and numbering of uniforms. Billy Moran Spiked In Game Wednesday LOS ANGELES (UPD-Second baseman Billy Moran of the Los Angeles Angels suffered a spike wound on the left calf Thursday in a game with the Washington Senators and will be sidelined for an indefinite period. Fly-Killer Ordered Destroyed By Judge Alfred W. Moellering, Fort Wayne, U. S. district attorney reports that the federal government has confiscated and destroyed 118 pounds of a fly-killer labeled “Fly Mort with DDVP,” in Decatur because it contained much less active ingredient than its label called for. He said government officials confiscated the pesticide, made by the Corn King Co., Des Moines, la., from the McMillen farm supply warehouse in Decatur and hauled it to the Decatur dump. A recent ruling by Judge Jesse Eachbach charged it with libel of information.

Arguments In Butts' Libel Case Opened ATLANTA (UPD — Final arguments in Wallace Butte’ $lO million libel suit against the Saturday Evening Post began today and are expected to run so long that a federal judge has set Monday for their conclusion. Both sides have two hours each to make their summations in the suit that has seen dramatic confrontations of coaches and college presidents in a costly controversy over whether the Post was truthful and justified in reporting that Butte gave away vital football secrete to a rival coach. Butte, who served as fooball coach and then athletic director at the University of Georgia for nearly 25 years, sued the Post after the magazine reported in its March 23rd issue that he disclosed vital plays to Alabama coach Paul (Bear) Bryant nine days prior to the 1962 AlabamaGeorgia game in which Alabama defeated Georgia 35 to 0. Alabama had been favored by 17 pointe in the season-opening contest. Contends Conversation Heard The Post contends that an Atlanta insuranceman, George Burnett, overheard the telephone conversation through an electronic error. Both Butte and Bryant have denied the Post story and Butts got on the witness stand for the ; third time Tuesday to swear he is telling the truth. Federal Judge Lewis R. Morgan said each side will have an hour to argue its side in today’s session. Then he will recess court until Monday when the arguments will be concluded and he will give his

charge to the 12-man jury which for two weeks has heard testimony from a score of witnesses who have diagrammed plays on a blackboard and even took to the courtroom floor to explain such football maneuvers as the “pro set” and the “slot.” Butte was the final witness in his suit. Resigned Last February The roly poly little man who resigned last February as athletic director at Georgia prior to the publication of the magazine article was grim-faced as he faced the packed courtroom. William Schroder, Butts’ attorney, have testified *o far in this case true, so help you God?” "Yes sir,” Butts answered. Other testimony in the windup of the trial put Dr. Frank Rose, president of the University of Alabama, on the stand and included the reading of a deposition by Chicago beer distributor Frank Scoby. Rose said his investigation of the reported telephone conversation between Butte and Bryant showed Bryant received no helpful information from Butte.
