I Yellow Jackets Defeat I New Haven In NEIC Tilt
s Righthander Denny Cookson, I in his last game before the home .1 folks, proved his rank as one i of the top hurlers in the North- | eastern Indiana conference Monday afternoon, as he hurled the | Decatur Yellow Jackets to a 2-0 1 victory over New Haven, derailI ing the Bulldogs’ title-bound express. | Cookson and New Haven’s Neil Carnes, who had tossed a perfecit game and a one-hitter in I the last two outings, hooked up 1 in a tremendous pitcher’s duel, 1 but the Decatur firebailer provJ ed superior, firing a one-hit shut- ■ out. ■ Carnes made one mistake, and it was a big one —a fastball that i Greg Ladd belted cleanly to left 1 field to score Max Elliott in the 3 sixth inning with the only tally f Cookson needed. . Carnes was sailing along with S a four-hit shutout, having given ■ up only one safety since the first Clark Stahly Named I Arcola Head Coach 1 Clark Stahly, well-known in if Adams county through his high § school basketball career with the $ Hartford Center Gorillas, has been named as the new head coach at 4 Arcola high school in Allen ■ county. Stahly fills the vacancy 5 created by the resignation of Kenny Eytcheson, coach for the past five years, who was recently J named assistant coach at Elmhurst high school in Fort Wayne. A graduate of Ball State Teach- ' ers College, Stahly will assume I the duties of head coach in basketball, baseball and track at Arcola.

Stahly, who coached at Frankfort junior high school the past year, his wife, Anita, and their year-and-a-half-old daughter will move to the Fort Wayne area in the near future. The Stahlys are members of the Third Presbyterian church in Frankfort. ’ ■ Soldier. Killed, Two Others Are Drowned NEEDLES, Calif.

inning, when the Decatur rally started. When it ended. New Haven no longer had hopes of an unbeaten slate in the NEIC. Blythe Triples After Carnes got pinchhitter John Meeks on strikes, Max Elliott rapped a single to left which got by the left fielder, allowing the Decatur speedster to take second. Ladd, who had been tossed out at the plate in the first inning in trying to score the game’s first run, ripped a ball to left field that you could hang the Monday wash on, and Elliott came home with the tie-breaking run. Sam Blythe, who already had a pair of Singles, stepped in and promptly belted Carnes’ first pitch under the fence in left field for a ground-rule triple, sending Ladd home with an insurance tally. Fans Nine Cookson fanned nine hitters and walked just one Bulldog. Carnes whiffed seven and didn’t issue a pass. Hosier, New Haven’s centerfielder and the eighth man. in the batting order, ruined Cookson’s bid for a second no-hitter this season when he rapped a clean single to center with two ,; out in the fifth. New Haven had two base runners in only one inning, the fourth, but Augenstein, who walked, was thrown out attempting to steal by Ladd, before Rohrbacher reached base on an error. * A fine play by left fielder Ed Fox prevented the Jackets from scoring in the opening frame. With two out, Lpdd and Sam Blythe both singled. Cookson looped a single to left field, but Fox raced in, boggled up the bounding ball, and threw a strike to home plate to nip Ladd attempting to score from second. With the exception . of Sam Blythe’s fourth inning single, Carnes retired the Jackets in order from the first inning until the sixth inning uprising. The Yellow Jackets now own a 4-2 NEIC mark and a 9-4 overall record, and will wintf up their season at Angola Wednesday, instead of the previously announced Thursday. New Haven now owns a 4-1 conference record, as does Angola.

One-Hitter By Banning Gives Phillies Lead By MILTON RICHMAN UPI Sports Writer Jim Bunning has nine hungry mouths to feed and he’s made a private promise to give them all a taste of some World Series melon. The 32-year-old side-arming stringbean, who provides the groceries for seven kids as well as for himself and his wife, narrowly missed the second nohitter of his career Monday night but still pitched the Philadelphia Phillies back into first place. Bunning gave up only one hit, a fifth inning single by Jim Wynn, as he handcuffed the Houston Colts, 4-0, for his fifth victory compared with only one defeat. “You might say I’ve been ‘around the block’ in this game,” grinned the six-foot-three, 182-pound right-hander. “I’ve been in six All-Star games, had a 20-game season, pitched a no-hitter and even was with a second place club. But I’ve never been in a World Series. Promises Series “I promised myself I’d be in one before I’m through.” Relying chiefly on fast balls and sliders, Bunning struck out five and didn’t walk a man Monday night. The only other Houston baserunner besides Wynn was Nellie Fox, hit by a pitch in the first inning. Manager Gene Mauch of the Phils, who took in the game from a grandstand seat where he was sitting out a two-day suspension for a run-in toith umpire Lee Weyer, saw hU team nick Ken Johnson for run on three singles in the fourth and add two more runs in the fifth on Richie Allen’ss double, a single by John Callison and another double by Tony Gonzalez, who also doubled home a final run in the seventh. Only two other games were played in the National League and both ended with the same score. The Pittsburgh Pirates beat the Los Angeles Dodgers, 4-2. and the New York Mets ended a string of 31 scoreless iuiuigf. wun a 4-Z victory over the San Francisco Giants. AL Action In the only American League game scheduled, the Detroit Tigers rallied for three runs in the ninth inning to topple the Washington Senators, 7-6. Rookie Steve ' Blass was a winner for the' Pirates in his first major league start when they shelled Don Drysdale for three runs in the sixth inning to overcome a 2-0 deficit. Drysdale, now 5-2, departed with the bases full and one run in, after which reliever Ron Perranoski yielded a sacrifice fly to Gene Freese arid a single by Donn Clendenon that accounted for the winning run. Blass, fresh up from Colum'bus of the International League,’ held the Dodgers to seven hits and struck out seven.' George Altman’s three-run homer off Billy Pierce in the eighth inning ended the Mets scoring famine and sank the Giants. Jesse Gonder followed with a double and Joe Christopher—singled off Gaylord Perry for New York’s fourth run -of the frame. Shaw Takes Defeat The defeat was charged to Bob Shaw, hi s second against three victories. Galen Cisco picked up his second win with the help of Larry Bearnarth, who was tagred for a homer by Tom Haller in hte eighth. Gates Brown’s two-run double in the ninth for the Tigers tied the score at 6 all against the Senators and Norm Cash then doubled also to bring home Brown with the winning run. Cash had homered earlier along with Bill Freehan while Don Lock socked two homers for Washington. Phil Regan evened his record iftofwUef-of-.starter ..Frank... Lary while Ronnie Kline suffered his fir.£t,i ; loss after three victories. ’ Rev. Moser Resigns At Virginia Church The Rev. Carey R. Moser, former pastor of the First Baptist church in Decatur, and currently pastor of the Schoolfield Baptist church .at Danville, Va., has announced his retirement, effective June. Rev. Moser will devote his time to Bible teaching, radio broadcasting and feature writing. After June 1, his address will be Rev. Carey R. Moser, Route 6, Box 14, Roanoke, Va.

Arnold Palmer J Rallies To Win Oklahoma City OKLAHOMA CITY (UPI) — Arnold Palmer says he "had a pretty good day.” Most profess ional golfers would be delighted to have one of Palmer’s “pretty good days.” In this case, it carried the game’s top all-time money winner to a two-stroke victory in the $40,000 Oklahoma City Open. Palmer, who said his putting game showed improvement, shot a five-under-par 67 Monday in one of his typical come-from-behind charges and beat Lionel Hebert with a 277 for his second tournament victory of the year. “My putting has been bad" the muscular 34-year-old Pennsylvanian said after he accepted the $5,800 check. “But today, I rolled in some little ones that helped ” Two of the “little ones” locked up the victory for Palmer, thrilling the Oklahoma branch of “Arnie’s army” that numbered in the thousands. One was a three-foot birdie putt on the 17th hole and the other was a two-foot birdie on No. 18 that put the tournament beyond Hebert’s reach. Hdbert forged into a two-way tie with George Bayer at the halfway point and then led all by himself after 54 holes. But, the colorful Cajun from Lafayette, La., ran into trouble at the start of the final round, bogeying his first two holes. Palmer was three strokes behind at the start of the last round, but given his chance, he quickly made up the deificit and soared into a lead he never gave up. Palmer joined Jack Nicklaus and Billy Casper Jr. as the only double winners of the year and» raised his 1964 earnings to $44,298, about $2,000 less than Nicklaus. Palmer, winner of the Master’s tournament this year for the fourth time, made this his 42nd tour victory since he turned pro in 1954, and upped his all-time record winnings to $511,506. Hebert, who had a 72 Monday after he birdied the final hole, banked' $3,500 for his second place finish and South African Bob Verwey came in third and , got $2,700. Jack McGowan and Mike Souchak were tied for fourth and Dave Marr, who sank the first hole-in-one in Oklahoma City Open history, placed sixth.

Commodores Defeated By Lincolnview, 4-1
Lincolnview of Ohio scored twice in the fourth inning to break a 1-1 tie and went on to post a 4-1 decision over the Decatur Catholic Commodores Monday afternoon at the Hanna-Nuttman diamond. The Commodores outhit their • foes, but were unable to produce the base hits at the right time, as they went down to their sixth defeat of the spring, as compared to three victories. The Commodores will wind up their 1964 home season this afternoon, playing host to Parkway, 0., in a 4 o'clock encounter at Hanna-Nuttman. The season finale Wednesday will be a return engagement with Lincolnview, to be played at the Ohio club’s diamond. Break Tie Each team owned a run when the visitors scored their pair of tallies in the fourth frame, which eventually proved to be the difference. D. Kiehl, the catcher, reached base on a Commodore error and Morris worked starting pitcher Terry Myers for a walk. Kiehl scored moments later on a balk, and Mosier punched out a single to score Morris, giving the Ohioans a 3-1 lead. Sophomore John Lose came on to relieve Myers, and put out the fire, but the damage had already been done. Both runs were unearned. Lincolnview, after a pair of scoreless innings, jumped into a one-run lead with a tally in the third frame. ,Mosier walked and was sacrificed to second by Fos- . ter. Myers got Boley to ground back to the mound, but Summerset rapped out a single, putting his team into the lead. Commodore Run The Commodores, however, came right back in their half of the third to knot tire score. Pat Gage, with one out, singled, stole second and scamperecf to third on a wild pitch. Gage then romped home on freshman Tom Lose s single. Foster, however, shut the door on the Commodores after that inning, and Lincolnview added a final tally’ in the fifth inning when Rees walked and scored on. Man Is Uninjured As Auto Hits Bridge A Linn Grove resident escaped injury in a one-car accident-at 8 o’clock Monday evening near the Indiana-Ohio state line. Vincent Floyd Habegger, 50-year-old Linn Grove resident, was operating an automobile which struck a bridge on county road 22, a half-mile west of the state line. Hobegger said the lights of an oncoming vehicle blinded him momentarily, and he was forced to pull to the right as the other vehicle neared ? the one-lane bridge. His auto struck the right side of the bridge, inflicting an estimated S3OO damage to the car. Deputy sheriff Harold August investigated the Monday evening crash.
PAGE SEVEN
a triple by D. Kiehl. The Commodores missed a golden opportunity to score in the fourth inning when Terry Myers tripled to open the inning but was left stranded on third as Foster got Dick Omlon to pop out, struck out Bill Bolinger and got Dan Lose to ground out to shortstop. The Commodores threatened once more in the seventh when Dave Hackman led off the inning with a single, but Foster fanned the next hitter, got Jim Miller to ground into a force out, and whiffed Tom Lose to end the ball game.
