CINCINNATI (UPI) — Pittsburgh Pirate infielder Bob Bailey was suspended by National League President Warren Giles Monday for what Giles termed a "bumping incident” with National League umpire Ed Vargo. The incident occurred in Sunday's Pirate game at Milwaukee. Bailey was fined 350 and suspended for Monday and Tuesday, and Pirate coach Frank Oceak was fined 3100 as a result of the incident. The Pirates were trailing by 54 when Bailey was called out at home plate by Vargo. Bailey began to dispute the call and Oceak joined the discussion, and both were later ejected. The Braves retained their 5-4 lead, completing a sweep of the doubleheader, having won the first game 6-2. Bailey felt he was safe. “It wasn't even close,” he said. "I slid in before the tag was made. “But when I heard Vargo call me out, I jumped up quickly and accidentally bumped Vargo. But I told him my bumping wasn't intentional and I feel he knows it too.” Oceak said he told Vargo after the play “you booted that one.” The coach said he didn't use any profanity “until I was thumbed out” Oceak said Bailey came “sliding into the plate real quick ... he came up sliding and hit Vargo . . the umpire was out of line in calling it.” Bailey was advised he was given the minimum suspension under league rules because it was the first report of any mis-conduct on his part. Bailey, a .297 hitter, will probably be replaced at third tonight by Gene Freese when the Pirates open a series with the Cardinals in St. Louis. Four Local Players On Pennant Winner f Four Decatur baseball players are' members of the W&W Gravel team which copped the regular season championship of the Fort Wayne Connie Mack league with a 2-1 win over the Komets in nine innings Monday night. Each club finished the regular campaign with a 15-3 record, forcing the playoff battle last night. Dick Omlor and Greg Ladd are catchers on the team, while Sam Blythe pitches and plays first base, and Denny Cookson pitches and plays shortstop. Last night, Cookson, playing at short, contributed a key base hit to the attack, batting in one of the two W&W’s runs. First baseman Blythe was hitless in three trips. Ladd recently suffered a hand injury in a W&W game, and was forced out of action. Ladd and Cookson are Decatur high school graduates, and Omlor a graduate of Decatur Catholic high. Blythe will be a junior next fall at Decatur high. Floyd Mcßride Wins Sportsmanship Award Floyd Mcßride of Decatur was awarded the sportsmanship trophy from the Chain-Breakers of Indianapolis, following Sunday’s feature event at the Decatur Speedway Karting Association track south of the city. Larry Wilkins of Liberty Center copped first place in the juniorior division Sunday, with Alan McKlain of Indianapolis and Brad Mcßride of Decatur finishing second and third respectively. James Lacy of Indianapolis won the slow heat, with Paul Hendricks of Fort Wayne second and Jim Eiting of Decatur third. Bill Bartkus of Fort Wayne copped first place in the fast heat, with John Wemhoff of Indianapolis second and Kay Doster of Fort Wayne placing third.

SAN FRANCISCO (UPI) San Francisco Giant Manager Alvin Dark is not at all pleased with National League umpiring. He calls it "t h e worst I’ve seen in 10 years.” Dark was thumbed from Monday's Giant - Chicago Cubs game by umpire Paul Pryor after claiming, along with Giant catcher Del Crandall, that Ron Santo looked at a called third strike. On the next pitch Santo connected for a three-run homer to start the Cubs on their way to a 6-4 victory. In the clubhouse after the game, Dark said: “’Hiis is disgusting. On the previous play they called a man safe at second base who was out by 10 feet. Then a guy strikes out and they don’t call him out. I don’t know whether it’s the umpires’ pension problems or what, but the umpiring is bad.” BALTIMORE (UPI) — Outfielder Earl Robinson earned another chance with the Baltimore Orioles today and it meant a trip back to the minors for veteran outfielder Glno Cimoli. The 27 - year -old Robinson, originally purchased from the Los Angeles Dodgers three years ago by the Orioles, was purchased again by them Monday from Rochester of the International League. Robinson had a .301 batting average for the Red Wings along with 11 homers and 39 runs batted in. The Orioles sent him to Rochester in 1962 after he required corrective surgery for an arm ailment. Cimoli, 34, was sent to Rochester to make room for Robinson. The Orioles signed him earlier this season after he had been cut loose by Kansas City. He also had previously played for the Dodgers, Cardinals, Pirates and Braves. , OKLAHOMA CITY (UPI)— Minnie Minoso made his debut in an Indianapolis Indians uniform Monday night by driving in two runs to help the Tribe to a 7-2 victory over flronf-run-rimg Oklahoma City in the Pacific Coast League. Minoso, signed over the weekend as a free agent, drove across runs the first two times at bat and held down third base. It was the opener of a fourgame series. The Indians got five runs in the first three innings and Bob Locker went the route, scattering eight hits. The Indians rapped out 14 safeties, three by shortstop Dal Maxvill. CINCINNATI (UPI) — Jim (perfect game) Bunning will have no problem feeding his family of nine during the off season. The Philadelphia Phillies’ righthander received 127-steaks — one for each major league victory — last night in ceremonies honoring his perfect game against the New York Mets June 21. Among those present to honor Bunning prior to the Cincinnati - Philadelphia game was National League President Warren Giles, who said: “I know you pitched a no - hitter in the American League, but I am happy to say you reached perfection in the National League.” Bunning's first no - hitter was against the Boston Red Sox six years ago Monday, when he was a member of the Detroit Tigers. Bunning, a native of Northern Kentucky, also received savings bonds for each of his seven children; an attache case; a year’s supply of beverages; an electric razor; merchandise orders; a movie projector and screen; ,a. bronze plaque, a copy of Which will be hung in the Northern Kentucky ballpark to be named after him; and a life - size photo that will hang in the Xavier, Ohio, University student center. A graduate of Xavier, Bunning also received a citation from the university’s president, Very Rev. Paul L. O’Connor. Bears Plan Scrimmage * Wed. Or Next Day RENSSELAER, Ind.
