Dodgers, Cards Keep Pace In National Race By FRED DOWN UPI Sports Writer Youth can be wonderful — and the Los Angeles Dodgers have plenty '. but the “old men” of the team seem to have taken charge of its 1963 destiny. These are the men who most resent the coke-up charges they have heard since the San Francisco Giants “stole” the 1962 National League pennant. Gold solid pros. . .like Wally Moon. . .Maury Wills. . .and John Roseboro. It’s clearly the hour of the Dodgers’ greatest need, with the St. Louis swifties coming on like gangbusters and it’s these men who have answered manager Walt Alston’s call for help. Stiffening in the face of the Cardinal charge, the Dodgers have won their last three games to retain their three-game bulge over the swifties,. who’ve taken 15 of their last 16 including six in a row. First it was Moon driving in two rbns in a 4-2 victory, then it was Wills with four hits in a 9-4 triumph, and Thursday night it was Roseboro with a grand slam homer -and five runs batted in for a “personal” 5-3 triumph over the Pittsburgh Pirates. Under Pressure The Dodgers started their game in Pittsburgh Thursday night under the most extreme sort of pressure. The Cardinals’ 8-3 afternoon victory over the Chicago Cubs already was on the scoreboard and 16-game winner Bob Friend was on the mound for the Pirates. Roseboro provided the Dodger answer when he went to bat with the bases filled and two out in the first inning — and connected for the second grand slam of his career to send the Dodgers off to a 4-0 lead. Roseboro singled home Moon in the third inning to make it 5-0 and Johnny Podres protect-

The win was Podres’ 13th against 10 losses; The Cardinals continued their terrific late drive behind the sev-en-hit, seven-strikeout pitching of Ernie Broglio, who scored his 16th victory. Bill White hit a tworun homer and drove in three runs and Dick Groat and Stan Musial had two hits each in the 11-hit attack. i Giants Beat Mets The San Francisco Giants stopped their two-game skid with a 6-0 win over the New York Mets and the Philadelphia Phillies downed the Houston Colts, 4-1, in the only other National League games. Juan Marichal pitched a fourhitter, struck out 13 and hit his first major league homer to win his 22nd game of the season for the Giants. Felipe Alou sent the Giants in front with a homer off Tracy Stallard’s first pitch of the game and, Ed Bailey also homered in San Francisco’s 10-hit attack. Former Dodger star Duke Snider was honored in pre-game ceremonies, which included the introduction of most of the Brooklyn stars of the 1950-57 era. He went hitless in three official trips to the plate but made a leaping one-handed catch to rob Chuck Hiller of an extra-base hit. Hard-throwing rookie Ray Culp pitched a five-hitter and struck out seven to win his 13th game for the Phillies. Homers by Roy Sievers and Tony Taylor led the Phillies’ eight-hit attack.

Yankees Move Nearer Fourth Straight Flag By MARTIN LADER UPI Sports Writer The New York .Yankees, who handle mere mortals with ease, will pit their magic against the mysteries of the supernatural today. A successful conflict by the New Yorkers against the age-old superstitions represented by a Friday the 13th. will result in their fourth straight American League pennant and the 28th in their history. Their mortal opponents will be the Minnesota Twins, currently holding down second place, 13 games? behind the Yankees. Each club has 14 games remaining. And, as usual, the Yankees have an ace up their sleeve. Even if they lose today, they’ll still have three more cracks at ?MinnesOta over the weekend to nail-down the flag. Bouton (19-6) or Al Downing (12-4) will work for New York \ against Twin ace Camilo _Pas<i/al (18-8). The only other team with a slim hope of catching the Yankees is the Chicago White Sox, 14 games off the pace in third place. But just one Yankee win or Chicago loss would eliminate ! the Sox and any combination of two New York victories or Minnesota defeats would knock out the Twins. Yanks Beat A's The Yankees moved to the border of mathematical certainty by whipping the Jansas City Athletics, 5-2, Thursday. Stan Williams went the distance to make his season record 8-6 and John Blanchard provided the punch with a two-run homer. Minnesota kept its faint hopes alive by edging the Cleveland Indians, 3-2, in 10 innings, and in the only other American League game the Los Angeles Angels blanked the Boston Red Sox, 2-0. Williams was in trouble twice early in the game and finished strong after yielding two runs in the fifth inning. The hard-throw-ing right-hander gave up eight hits and struck out only three. . Blanchard provided Williams With all the support he needed With his 15th home run in the fourth inning after the Yankees had scored once in the second. Moe-Drabowsky (6-12) was the loser. Hall Seta Record Tlob Allison’s 10th inning sacrifice fly drove home the winning fun for the Twins. Earlier, Jim Hall had hit a two-run homer for the Twins. It was his 32nd and broke the league record for most homers by a rookie. The old mark was set by Ted Williams of Boston in 1939. Relief pitcher Bill Dailey gained his sixth triumph against three defeats. Don Lee pitched four-hit ball in 100-degree weather before 1,530 fans, the smallest crowd ever to witness a major league bailgame in Los Angeles. It was the eighth viefory in 18 decisions for Lee. The Angels scored both their runs in the seventh inning on a sacrifice fly by Jim Fregosi and a Boston error.

Jackets Battle Railroaders At Garrett Tonight The Decatur Yellow Jackets, seeking their second win in two starts this season, travel to Gar-, rett this evening to meet the rugged Railroaders. Game time is 8 p.m., with a large Decatur crowd expected to attend, despite threats of a big dit in the temperature. Tickets at the gate this evening are priced at $1 for both adults and students. The Jackets are one of three teams at the top of the Northeastern Indiana conference standings, and will be seeking to* up their recor d to 2-0 tonight. The Decaturites opened .their season one week ago tonight with a 21-13 win over Auburn. Kendallville pounded * Bluffton, 25-0, and Columbia City whipped Elmhurst, 18-0, and rest atop the NEIC list with the Yellow Jackets. This will be Garrett s first conference encounter, as the Railroader’s defeated North Side of Fort Wayne's B team last Friday by a 19-6 margin. V Same Starters Coach Wally Yeoman is expected to go with the same starting lineup tonight which was successful against Auburn. No key in- 1 juries were reported afters last week’s gamg,. and none from this I week’s practice sessions. Decatur hasn't defeated a Gar- s rett team in 10 consecutive seasons, and the local eleven is hoping a Friday the 13th date with the Railroaders will break the jinx. The two clubs have fought to a pair of ties in the past three yeats. 13-13 in 1960, and 7-7 last I year. The last time the Yellow Jackets played at Garrett, in 1961, the Railroaders posted a lastminute 6-0 win. Other NEIC action this evening finds Elmhurst at Angola; New Haven at Columbia City in a big clash and Bluffton at Auburn.
