VanderKelen Will Face Pro Test Saturday By United Press International Ron VanderKelen, the Minnesota V1 kln gs’ widely-heralded rookie quarterback, will receive his National Football League “baptism” in an exhibition game against the Philadelphia Eagles Saturday at Hershey, Pa. "It’s Vandy’s game," head coach Norm Van Brocklin said Monday in announcing he will start the former Wisconsin star, who has watched the Vikings’ first three pre-season contests’ from the bench. Van Brocklin also announced t|ie purchase of two defensive tackles — Billy Wilson and George Holtz — from the St. Louis Cardinals. The newcomers brought the club roster to 54, so the Vikings will have to cut 11 players .today to reach the 43man limit. Buddy Parker, the Pittsburgh Steelers’ head coach, had no such problem, for his rooster already was pared to 43 players. Parker, though, remained in an unhappy mood because of the Steelers’ 17-14 loss to the Baltimore Colts last Saturday. “I’m really disgusted,” he said. “Our offense wasn’t clicking (against the Colts) and the defense was fooled on simple draw plays.” In other NFL camps: The Detroit Lions are fearful that flanker back Pat Studstill, who suffered a leg injury against the Cardinals last weekend, may miss the season opener against the Los Angeles Rams Sept. 14— Head coach Bill McPeak described the Washington Redskins’ performances against the Eagles as “rotten”.—Billy Stacy of the Cardinals was complmented by coach Wally Lemm for the “wonderful game” he played against the Lions... Hie Chicago Bears concentrated on pass defense during a drill for their meeting with the Cardinals Saturday night... Fullback Phil King of the New York Giants will miss the club’s final two exhibition games because of torn cartilage around his ribs. Along the AFL front: The Houston Oilers cut four players — offensive guard Willis Perkins, defensive tackle Tom Brown, offensive halfback Butch Pressley ' and offensive center Don Dona-tenfr-’rtTfce Kansas City Chiefs worked on their passing for Saturday’s exhibition against the Oilers...’Die Boston Patriots restored backfield coach Fred Bruney to their active list. .... ... ... Musial Optimistic On Beating Dodgers SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) — The Los Angeles Dodgers still can be caught, says Stan Musial, and the St. Louis Cardinals are counting on the San Francisco Giants to help put the brakes on the frontrunners — one way or another. “We’ve still got a chance to overtake them," said Musial after Monday’s 6-3 Cardinal victory over Juan Marichal and the Giants. “If we can take two more from San Francisco, we may gain a little. “But the Giants have seven games left to play with the Dodgers. We are hoping San Francisco can win most of these to help us.” Manager Alvin Dark of the Giants isn’t looking as far ahead as the Dodgers series. But he’d like to win his two remaining battles with the Cardinals tonight and Wednesday — and then clobber the Dodgers in the four-game series starting in Los Angeles Thursday. Major League Will Open Season Tonight - The Major bowling league, completely reorganized, will get the regular bowling season officially underway tonight when the loop rolls its initial matches at 9 o’clock at Villa Lanes. The Gold Crown league, which met last night, has several team openings. This league will start at 9 p.m. Sept. 9.

Walker was the fourth top scorer and second in rebounds when the club was based in Syracuse last season.

Cards Defeat Giants, Cut Dodger Lead By MARTIN LADER UPI Sports Writer If Stan Musial is as sharp with his words as he is with his bat, there’s another dark cloud hanging over Los Angeles. Hie Dodgers, who apparently had wrapped up the National League pennant with a sevengame win streak .last week, continue to be their own worst enemies as the race heads for the treacherous September stretch. Musial promised Monday after his St. Louis Cardinals had whipped the San Francisco Giants, 6-3, that “we’ve still got a chance to overtake them.” The Dodgers then added life to the prophecy by dropping a 3-1 decision to the Cincinnati Reds Monday night, allowing the Cards to creep within 5% games of the league lead. Los Angeles now has lost four of five games in its home park following the impressive streak, and 1962 isn’t so far behind that the players don’t remember. The Milwaukee Braves slugged the Houston Colts, 11-7, in Monday’s only other National League contest. American League action was limited to a twi-night doublebeader at Washington between the Minnesota Twins and the Senators. Minnesota lost a chance to gain a firmer hold on second place by dropping the nightcap, 7-3, after capturing the first game, 5-2. O’Toole Is Winner Jim O’Toole, a loser in eight of his last 10 decisions, was the messenger of ill tidings for the Dodgers. The husky left-hander retired the first 10 men he faced and limited Los Angeles to five hits for the game to gain his 16th triumph against 11 losses. Gordy Coleman provided the major share of the batting support with his ninth home run of the year following a single by Frank Robinson in the fourth toning. The Reds picked up their final run in the eighth when Tommy Harper scored from first base on a Vada Pinson single and a poor relay home by Junior Gilliam. The lone Dodger score came in the fourth when Tommy Davis singled home Willie Davis, who had walked. Don Drysdale (1615) was the losing pitcher. The Cardinals pushed across three runs to the ninth toning to snap a two-game losing slump and foil Juan Marichal’s bid for his 20th victory. Singles by Curt Flood, Dick Groat and Ken Boyer provided the decisive runs after the Gaints had tied the score in the eighth. George Altman had hit a two-run homer for St. Louis in the top of the eighth. Homer For Braves Eddie Mathews, Don Dillard and Hank Aaron all hit homers for the Braves to more than offset an inside-the-park circuit by Houston’s John Bateman. Aaron thus followed Orlando Cepeda and Willie McCovey of ihe Giants with a home run in each of the National League parks this season. Relief pitcher Ron Piche gained his first triumph of the year. Resounding batk-to-back homers by Harmon Killebrew and Bob Allison sparked the secondplace Twins to their opening game victory. Dick Stigman, with late-toning relief from Bill Dailey, evened his record at 11-11. But the Twins’ edge over Chicago was narrowed to a half-game again when the Senators capitalized on Dick Phillips’ hqmer and erratic Minnesota pitching to capture the nightcap. Starter Steve Ridzik (5-4) was the win ner.

Serve Notice Irish Are Comeback Bound NEW YORK (UH) — Notre Dame football coach Hugh Devore and athletic director Ed (Moose) Krause served notice today that the Irish are comeback bound. “We're going to be just like the Notre Dame teams of old,” Karuse said. Notre Dame, he added, is fighting its way back to national supremacy “the hard way, playing the toughest teams we can find.” Reports of de-emphasis in athletics at the South Bend institution are unfounded, Krause said as he and Devore, the school’s “interim" coach who took over for Joe Kuharich, made their annual pilgrimage here to talk up the Irish. “Last season we had the winingest over-all athletic program in Notre Dame history including all sports,” Krause said. “We’ve never considered de-emphasizing sports.” Notre Dame,' which split even in football last year, faces four Big, Ten teams in football, starting, with defending champion Wisconsin Sept. 28, then followed .by rugged Purdue and Southern California, the 1962 national champion. “We figure it’s no disgrace to lose to a good team, and when you beat a good team you get credit for it,” said Krause. “Our future schedule is just as tough. It includes such teams as Army,, Oklahoma, Georgia Tech, North: western, California and others.” Devor was unusually optimistic. “We have one of the finest ends in the country jn Jim Kelley, who broke every Notre Dame pass receiving record last year,” he said, “and we have good players at most every position. Our biggest concern is at quarterback. Devore said Notre Dame’s offense is going to be “quite a' change from previous years.” “We plan to use a flanker all the time, more of a pro-type system,” he said. “We plan to find the best two-way team possible and stick with it.” D.C.H.S. Athletes To Report This Evening George Waning, Decatur Catholic high school coach, announced today that all D. C. H S. hoys, freshman through plan to participate in cross oountry and basketball during the school year, are to obtain their physical slips at the cd&ch's office at 6 o’clock this evening.

Prospects Are Outlined For Yellow Jackets ’ Grid Team

By Bob Shraluka i (Editor’s Note: Second of a Ser-| ies of five articles, outling, position by position, the 1963 Decatur high school football team.) Today we look at the tackle position — the backbone of any good football team. From this corner it appears that head coach Wally Yeoman has only one problem, barring a major injury — finding a partner for bulldozer Steve Hazelwood. Only a broken bone should keep Hazelwood from becoming an allconference tackle — ask his teammates who have been working out against him twice a day for the past week and a half. Big Steve comes in at six-feet in height and 220 pounds, and that 220 pounds isn’t fat. A first stringer most of last season, this should be the big year for the big fellow. He has been “chomping at the bit” In practice, and by wrestling in the winter hasn’t gotten to far out of shape since last fall. Team Leader It is the belief here that big Steve will become the team leader: the guy who comes up with the important tackle, the important block, and strikes fear in the hearts of opposing linemen. Hie only thing that will keep the rugged senior out of the lineup — and from knocking some opposing heads — will be a broken bone, and even that might not do it. Although there won’t be any worries at tackle on one side of the lines all is not roses as a running mate for Hazelwood is still being sought. Senior Tom Macklin, who at sixfeet three and 235 pounds is bigger than Hazelwood, could easily provide the answer, but big Mack is injury-prone and is currently on the shelf and will probably be out the first week of the season. Bad Knees , Owner of a bad set of knees, big

Tom is one of those fellows who just can't keep the old injury bugaboo from his door. The bum knees have bothered him throughout his high school career, and kept his playing to a minimum. Hoping they would hold up tnis season, he started practice and in the first week tore some ligaments in an ankle and injured his foot, sire, and if the ligaments heal There is no doubt about his dequickly and lady luck stays with him, Decatur will own two of the biggest and best tackles in the state. As of the end of last week, the Hazelwood appeared to be John best bet for a starting berth with Eichenauer. A junior possessing lots of desire, Eichenauer is built like the proverbial ’’fireplug,” at 5-« and 180 J pounds. He owns the first-string i practice shirt now and if he keeps working as ho has, it won’t be taken from him easily. Fundamentally Strong He hasn't nad any previous varsity experience, but his good knowledge of fundamentals and hustle will make up for the lack of it. He may be a real surprise.

Darrel Grote, a six-foot, 190 pound junior, has also been working hard in practice and is giving Eichenauer a real run for that starting spot. Also without varsity experience, Grote is big and strong and with some experience could be a real surprise. Sophomore Dave Snell, 5-10, 170 pounds, has impressed the coaches, and he too is a good bet to see some varsity action. Two other juniors who lack experience but have the necessary size are working in the tackle slots *Diey arc John Meeks, 6-2 and 170 pounds, and Dave Hammond, 6-3 and 180 pounds. Actually the tackle position has to be considered somewhat of a worry for the coaching staff. Hazelwood won’t provide any worries, but the injury to Macklin and the knee trouble, plus the inexperience of the other candidates, could cause trouble. Looking from the optimistic standpoint, Macklin could bounce back and stay free from injury; Eichenauer, Grote and some of the others might learn quickly — and the problem is solved.
