Plans Revealed For City Golf Tourney In September

The 1964 City Golf Championship Tournament will be held at the Decatur Golf Course, September 12-13, and September 19-26, for members of the Decatur Golf Association, Don Elder, chairman of the city golf tournament, said today. Hie tourney will be medal piay over 72-holes. All entrants will be required to play a 36-hole qualifying round to determine their respective flights. The number of flights will be derived from the list of players, with each flight showing a field of the low 12 and ties. This year’s defending champion is Don Elder. Elder won the 54-hole fevent last year with 230, finishing one stroke , ahead of . Gordie Sowers, the 1962 champion, and Bob Helm, both one stroke back at 231. Helm then eliminated Sowers for the 5 runner-up spot in an 18-hole playoff match. Rain Date Set In the event of rain, the tournament will be moved to one more week, September 26-27. This will be done only if the course is closed to all play. Should rain hamper the tournament, the medal play will be cut to 54-holes,-or even 36-noles. This win reflect on al! flights, championship flight through the remaining flights. Qualifying rounds are underway. All golfers qualifying must play in at least a three-some and must do so Thursdays, Saturdays, or Sundays, now through September 7, with Labor Day the last date for qualification. To Appoint Rules Committee The members of the city tournament committee will appoint a three-man team to act as officials for this event. Two members of the Decatur Golf Association will work in cooperation with Luke Majorki, local PGA pro and owner of the Decatur Golf Course, as rules officials. U. S. G. A. rules win govern the city tourney action. No provisional bah will be played this year in the event of a rule question. The rules committee will go to the point on the golf course to make the ruling. All golfers playing in a foursome where play must be halted, will let following contestants play through to keep the tournament running. Approve Matches Ahead The city tourney committee has agreed to permit golfers working on Saturday to play their match ahead. However, aU persons re-

questing to play ahead of the* scheduled date, must first be ap-~ proved by the committee. S No Sunday match will be played 5 ahead. All golfers must play tne-. The "Bullpen" 'By Bob TfirSHMT— ~ " THOSE White Sox continue their domination of Little League base • ball in Decatur, but it took an outstanding performance Friday night to nip the Red tor.the touraa ment title, The Sox (the White ones) hung up a tourney championship to go along with those three pennants of the last three years. BY winning, and staying in the loser’s bracket, the White Sox needed to play only three games to take the title, and they were hardpressed in two of those games. After clobbering the Indians, they edged the surprising Yankee ball club by a 3-2 score and then needed an extra inning to best the Red Sox for the crown. FRIDAY’S title game was qne of the most exciting games The Bullpen has seen in some time in the local Little League. Some timely hitting, good defensive work, and some very fine pitching made the championship an interesting battle. KURT Gerig of the White Sox and Greg Cook of the Red Sox would have to share honors in choosing the best hitting performances of the final week. Cook became the frist, and only, player this season to slam five hits in one game when he went five-for-five Wednesday night against the Yankees. Three other players had four hits in one game this season, Jim McConnell of the Yanks, Tom Hullinger of the Red Sox and Ty Hill of the White Sox. GERIG, of course, was outstanding in toe title game Friday. The second sacker scored his team’s first two runs, one after poking a triple, and he then tripled in what proved to be the winning run in the.first extra frame. PITCHING was also strong during the week, with lefty Norb Hess’ fine job in a losing cause against toe White Sox Monday standing out. Hess, a part-time lefthander catcher, struck out sjx and walked only two, as he narrowly missed upsetting the Sox. Ken Friedt of the Red Sox also turned in a fine job in a losing cause in toe championship game. Friedt fanned eight and walked just two and allowed toe White Sox only three hits before having to retire after the regulation six innings. - ■ • ' " ■ ’ ■*-■ A QUICK recap of this summer’s action finds the White Sox winning their third straight Little League pennant and the league’s first post-season tournament. In the Poney League, toe Cubs won their second consecutive pennant, and Berne won its first tournament title. WELL, its now over for another summer and toe Little League's 12th annual season and the Pony League’s llto were two of the best. Some fine ball players will move from the Little League to the Pony next summer, and several have now graduated from the Poiiy League. The Bullpen takes this time to wish all of them the best tof luck for next season, and ensuing seasons, and say “We’ll see you next summer” when The I Bullpen starts warming up the first of June. . .

Chisox Deals Still Paying Off; Giants Get Mound Aid

By CURT BLOCK UH Sport* Writer The Chicago White Sox may have negotiated two of the best •’sleeper" deal* of 1964. Manager Al Lopez decided io take a chance with veteran southpaw Don Mossi in spring training although the grapevine was saying his arm was dead. Then three weeks ago the Pale Hose acquired first baseman Bill Skowron in a waiver deal that involved four players. Both figured in Sunday's 2-1 and 3-1 doubleheader sweep of Washington that moved Chicago to within one-half game of New York and Baltimore in the tight American League pennant race. Mossi appeared in both games in relief and worked a total of two hitless innings. Lopez, noting the southpaw’s history of arm trouble and age of 34, has been using Mossi sparingly. In 28 games he has pitched only 30,innings with an earned run average in the 2.50's and walked a total of six me*. Along with Hoyt Wilhelm, he has been a late inning stopper for Lopez. Moving Well After a disappointing year in the National League, Skowron was sent to Washington and last month moved on to Chicago. In the past three weeks he has driven in 13 runs and sports ~a respectable .276 average. His third inning single in the first game scored Al Weis with what proved to be the winning run as Joel Horlen picked up his eighth win in 14 decisions, allowing only three hits in 7 1-3 innings, Righthainder Ray Herbert also went 7 1-3 innings before Mossi bailed him out. Herbert gave up six hits and one run with Jim Landis’ two-run sixth inning single breaking a 1-1 tie. ’ Elsewhere in the American League, New York blanked Minnesota 2-0; Baltimore edged Kansas City 8-7; Cleveland tripped Detroit. 6-1 and 2-1 and Los Angeles beat Boston 2-1. Bulldog Jim Bouton fired his second consecutive shutout, a * three-hitter blanking of Minnesota, as Hector Lopez accounted for both Yankee runs with an infield out and his eighth homer. Bouton, in winning his 12th game against eight losses, struck out five, including Tony Oliva as he stopped the hitting streak of the league’s leading batter at 17> games. The Orioles won their 26th one-run game’ of the year on eighth inning doubles by Jackie Brandt and Norm Siebern. The Birds now trail the Yankees by five percentage points for first place. Powell Get* 28th Boog Powell knocked in four runs and belted his 28th home' run in a game that’ featured five roundtrippers. Bert Campaneris, Jim Gentile, Manny Jimenez and Ed Charles connected in a losing cause for the A’s. Steve Barber worked four innings in relief of Robin Roberts and got the win, his sixth in 14 decisions. Moe Drabowsky took the loss. Jim Fregosi walked, went to third on Joe Adcock’s single and scored on Bob Rodgers’ single with two out in the ninth inning as the Angels handed Red Sox relief ace Dick Radatz his fifth defeat to go with 10 victories. Indian southpaw Sam McDowell allowed four singles and Woody Held contributed four hits, including his 14th homer in the opener. Cleveland pushed across the winning run against Detroit in the 11th inning of the second game on an error, a

scratch single, a walk, and a force out off the bat of pinchhitter Larry Brown. NL Action For John Pregenzer, the adulation preceded the accomplishment. The Giants’ 6-foot-5, 220-pound righthander, recalled from Tacoma last week, celebrated his 29th birthday Sunday with his first major league victory, a 2-1 decision over Pittsburgh in relief that moved San Francisco to within m games of National League leading Philadelphia. Pregenzer, from Antioch. 111., was the subject of nationwide publicity... at the start of the 1963 season when Novella O’Hara of San Francisco organized the John Pregenzer Fan Club.

amused that a professional ball player could be purchased for SIOO, which is what the Giants gave Pocatello for Pregenzer in the fall of 1962. The attractive Irish lass countered with an offer of $125 to General Manager Chub Feeney for her hero but the San Francisco executive felt the joke had gone far enough. How wrong he was. Fan Club Blossomed The fan club, which includes politician Pierre Salinger, blossomed and when Pregenzer was sent to the minors after a brief trial at the outset of the 1963 season, his admirers didn't desert him. They toasted* him with a concoction called the John Pregenzer cocktail, two parts gin and one part tears. And a sign hung in the window of the club house reading, "You'll be back, John Pregenzer.” The wine, rather, the Pregenzer's, flowed Sunday night in the City by the Bay, hailing the return of a friend. Duke Snider’s eighth Inning single scored Chuck Hiller from second as Pittsburgh’s Bob Friend absorbed his 11th loss in 20 decisions. In other National League games, Los Angeles defeated the Phillies 6-1; St. Louis edged Cincinnati 5-4; Chicago stopped Milwaukee 5-1; and Houston downed the Mets 9-7 in the first half of a doubleheader, but dropped the nightcap 4-2. The Dodgers snapped a threega m e Philadelphia winning streak behind the seven-hit pitching of southpaw Larry Miller. - Stole Two Bases Maury Wills had two hits, two stolen bases and scored a run. Jim Gilliam, playing third base with- rookie, Darrell Griffith transferred to right field, drove in two runs and Tommy Davis had the game’s only home run, his eighth. Pinchhitter. Carl Warwick's sacrifice fly in the last of the eighth gave the Cards their victory after Cincinnati’s. Deron Johnson had hit his second two- ■■ run -homer of -the game in' the ' top, half of -the ,ju»UJag,„Curt Simmons, victim of both home runs, was relieved by Mike Cuellar, who evened his record at 3-3 although he pitched only one-third of an inning. Ernie Broglio’s eight-hit route going performance stopped Milwaukee as Joe Amalfitanp collected three hits to provide the Cubs punch. Carroll Hardy hit his first homer of the season to give Houston its opening-game tri-, umph over the Mets and rookie Ron Locke was credited with his first major league victory in the night cap when Charlie Smith gave the Mets an even break for the day with, his 13th roundtripper. _____
