AFL Acquiring 4-Year Balance By United Press International The American Football League seems to be acquiring balance in the fourth year of its existence. After three weeks of the new season, only one team — the San Diego Chargers — today could claim a perfect record. And Sid Gillman’s men could fall next Sunday when they entertain the defending champion Kansas City Chiefs. Three AFL games were played Sunday — and all produced upsets. The Boston patriots knocked off the previously unbeaten Oakland Raiders, 20-14; the New York Jets surprised the Houston Oilers, 24-17, and the Chiefs were erased from the perfect record list when they were held to a 27-27 standofi by the Buffalo Bills. San Diego and Denver were idle. The Patriots took over undisputed possession of first place in the Eastern Division with a 2-1 tecord while the Oilers (1-2), the East’s perennial champs, skidded to third. San Diego (2-0) topped the Western Division.

Dodgers Cautious About Pennant By MARTIN LADER UPI Sports Writer There will be no premature celebrations in Los Angeles this year. The Dodgers have learned their lesson. Anybody else might be digging the corkscrew into, the champagne. The Dodgers are keeping their bottles on ice. Los Angeles clinched at least a tie for the National League pennant Sunday when the St. Louis Carinals lost to the Cincinnati Reds, 5-2. The Dodgers could have clinched the flag by beating the Pittsburgh Pirates, but instead dropped a 4-0 decision. The outlook is as bright as a World Series share for the Dodgers, who need win just one of their final six games to qualify for what probably will be the richest Series ever against the New York Yankees. Still there was little joy in the Los Angeles dressing room Sunday. “You never celebrate a tie,” explained pitcher Don Drysdale. This was a distinct turnabout from last year’s reaction after the Dodgers had clinched a tie with two days remaining in the season. They held an impromptu celebration and then lost their final two games and the playoffs. Finish At Home The Dodgers will play their last six games at home starting with the New York Mets Tuesday night. They also entertain the Mets on Wednesday and Thursday nights before closing with a three-game series against the Philadelphia Phillies. Even should the Dodgers blow all six games, St. Louis still

54 - Hole Total Os 230 For New Champion

by Dick Reidenbach Don Elder, popular Monmouth high school coach, won the 1963 Decatur golf club championship Sunday at the Decatur golf course with a 54-hole total of 230. Elder trailed the first 18-hole mark by two shots as he did at the 36-hole breather, but went on io win this years’ championship by one stroke over defending 1962 Hoosier Three r” .-v Tested Saturday By United Press International The “Big Three” in Indiana college football find out in a hurry Saturday what’s in store for them this season in games in which none can afford to loaf. Indiana, with Rich Badar calling signals for the first time, plays the Big Ten opener at Northwestern. Wisconsin, co-favor-ite with Northwestern for the Big Ten crown, invades Notre Dame, and Purdue goes' to the Orange Bowl for a night scrape against Miami. Purdue, with veteran quarterback Ron DiGravio and Gary Hogan back for their final season, did not meet Miami last year, but Indiana lost to Northwestern in the final period, 26-21, and Wisconsin tripped the Irish, 17-8. For Notre Dame, “interim” coach Hugh Devore makes his debut, replacing Joe Kuharich who returned to the pro ranks in an administrative capacity. The South Benders, barring major injuries, were expected to do better than last year’s 5-5 record. Purdue also broke even last year and potentially, at least, is better than last year’s record. I-U Is Question Indiana, still a big question' mark, was 3-6 in 1962 but licked Purdue in their “Old Oaken Bucket” battle for its lone conference victory. On the intra-state level,. Butler opens defense of its Indiana Collegiate Conference title at home against Ball State; Evansville is at DePauw and Valparaiso.- at SK Joseph’s in other ICC games. In the Hoosier College Conference, Franklin is at Hanover and Manchester at Anderson. * Elsewhere, Earlham is at Tay-. lor, Washington of St. Louis at Wabash, Indiana Central at Ohio Northern, Indiana State at Illinois Normal, and Rose. Poly at Illinois College. The biggest cheers from the Monday morning quarterbacks went to Evansville and Earlham. Evansville, with Mike Madriaga's two-point conversion in the fourth period the deciding factor, edged Southern Illinois in Saturday’s opener, 15-14, to clip a 13game losing streak. Earlham, Indiana’s lone perfect record college crew last year, made it 15 in a row by overpowering Principia of Illinois, 32-13. Steve Boyce led the rout with a pair of touchdowns. Butler, beaten in its opener at Morehead State, stormed back with a 35-27 win over Bradley in a wide-open aerial tussel in which six touchdown passes were thrown —four by the loser’s Bob Caress. - — = - Taylor Wins Taylor opened defense of its HCC crown by scoring once each in the first two periods, then hanging on for a 14-10 win at Indiana Central. Tom Southern pitched two touchdown passes to Hal Sampson in Franklin’s 26-6 HCC win over Anderson. All told, Hoosier teams won six games from out-of-state foes and dropped four. Also successful were Ball State, 22-6, over Eastern Michigan; Indiana State beat Eastern Illinois, 14-6, and Manchester recovered six fumbles to blank Alma of Michigan, 13-0. On the debit side, Central State of Ohio beat St. Joe’s, 19-10; Georgetown of Kentucky spanked hapless Hanover, 33-6; Illinois Wesleyan won from DePauw, 20-13, and Wilmington of Ohio drubbed Rose Poly, 26-0. In the other all-Hoosier game, Wabash edged Valparaiso, 7-0, with last year’s state scoring titlist Lynn Garrard crashing over for the game's only tally in the third period. He also kicked the extra point.
