Howsam is former general manager of the Denver Bears baseball club and a co-fbqnder of the American Football League.

Manager Gene Mauch’s moonlight operators opened the biggest lead any team has enjoyed this season (five games over San Francisco) when they battered the Chicago • Cubs Monday night, 8-1. The victory was the 49th after dark for the Phillies this season againt only 22 nighttime losses for a percentage of .690. The Phils have been playing less than .500 during the day with a 22-23 record. Chris Short, Tony Gonzales and Johnny Callison led the Phillies to their latest victory. Short limited the Cubs to five hits to earn his 12th victory and lower his earned run average to below 1.98, making him second only to Dodger great Sandy Koufax in that department. It was the first time in Short’s five big league seasons that he has won 12. Hit Two Doubles Gonzales contributed two doubles and a single, good for two runs, and Callison slammed two triples, drove in two runs and scored twice in the Phils’ 12-hit barrage against starter Ernie Broglio and three Chicago relievers.

The victory moved the second-place White Sox within I*6 games of the league-leading Baltimore Orioles and dropped the Yankees three games off the pace in third place. Pizarro Wins 16th Juan Pizarro became the first 16-game winner in the AL but needed a brilliant relief effort from 41-year-old knucklebailer Hoyt Wilhelm. Wilhelm entered the game in the eighth inning with one run in. the score 2-1, two Yankees on base and Roger Maris at bat. Wilhelm struck out Maris and got Elston Howard on an infield grounder to end the inning and retired the side in order in the ninth.
