Trailer Sales Wins City Title; Loses In ISC Tourney 6-5

Adams County Trailer Sales clinched the regular season title in the City Softball League Wednesday evening, and then traveled to Markle where they were beatCBS Showing No Fear Over Sale NEW YORK (UPI) — Officials of the Columbia Broadcasting System (CBS) expressed no alarm when they learned the Justice Department’s antitrust lawyers are scanning them purchase of the New York Yankees. “The best legal advice that CBS could get assures us that no conflict with antitrust laws is involved,” said Frank Stanton, president of the network, and Board Chairman William Paley in a joint statement Wednesday night. UPI learned Wednesday in Washington that the Justice Department '.is conducting a preliminary investigation of the sale of 80 per dent of the Yankees to CBS for $11.2 million. A Justice Department source pointed out that the antitrust division normally conducts a preliminary investigation of all matters in which a question of monopoly has arisen. It is used to determine whether a full investigation aimed at prosecution should be undertaken. The Supreme Court has held that baseball is exempt from antitrust laws, but television networks are not exempt. One of the questions raised immediately by the sale was whether CBS might obtain an unfair advantage in future bidding for rights to broadcast the World Series. The National |B|rtoa|dcasting Company (NBC) now has the World Series rights. Stanton and Paley answered that question this way: “In negotiating ... for broadcasting such events as the World Series, CBS would have to bid in equal competition with all other networks, sponsors and with pay television. There is no conceivable way through which CBS could gain preferential treatment. “Organized baseball is not going to show favoritism to one network over others because it owns a club — or for any other reason.” FAT OVERWEIGHT Available to you without a doctor’s prescription, the GALAXON plan.

en in the state International Softball Congress tourney. The Trailer Sales, after winning their first game in the ISC meet, were nosed out by Albion-Crom-well by a 6-5 score last night. The Decatur team took a 1-0 first inning lead, but AlbionCromwell scored three times in both the fourth and fifth to build up a 6-1 lead. As it turned out, they needed the big lead, as the Trailer Sales came up with a fourrun rally in the top of the sevenGrid Giants Purchase Lion By United Press International The New York Giants like that extra margin. That’s why they acquired linebacker Max Messner from the Detroit Lions for a future draft choice Wednesday. Allie Sherman’s squad was down to its last three linebackers due to injuries suffered by Jerry, Hillebrand and Bill Winder. Two of the three, Lou Slaby and Tom Costello, have seen little National ’Football League action. Slaby was on last year’s taxi squad while Costello is a rookie from Dayton. Tom Scott is the only veteran of the three. Messner, a six year NFL veteran, played his college football at Cincinnati. The 6-3, 255pounder appeared in all 14 games for Detroit last year and will be used as a corner or middle linebacker by New York. On Sidelines . v The Eastern Division champs were preparing to unveil Hillebrand against the Washington Redskins and Sam Huff, his predecessor at middle linebacker, for the first time on Saturday, but Hillebrand’s injury will keep him sidelined. Winter will miss action because his knee, operated on after the 1963 season, has been slow in healing. Tom Moore has become the forgotten man of the Green Bay Packers now that Paul Hornung has returned, but if Packers’ coach Vince Lombardi does not want him, George Ha- > las will gladly take him. Moore, the seventh leading rusher in the NFL last season, was being used behind Hornung as the Packers prepare to meet the Bears Saturday at Milwaukee. Job Is Tougher Although both Moore and fullback Jim Taylor were sidelined for last Saturday night’s 34-10 victory over the Giants, the Packers still gained 150 yards rushing, which should make Halas’ job even tougher. Meanwhile, the Chicago coach-owner was alarmed over the attitude for his players before this clash with Green Bay. “The Bears are not physically or mentally ready, “Halas said. He described the Bears’ problem as “a sort of lackluster indifferent attitude.” The St. Louis Cardinals cut defensive back Joe Driskill and defensive end Dick Bowman to reduce their roster to 47 players.

Clay-Liston Rematch On WBA's Agenda CHESTER, Pa. (UPI) — Attorney Garland (Bill) Cherry, spokesman for promoters of the controversial Cassius Clay-Son-ny Liston return fight, announced today he will appear at the World Boxing Association’s fight - hearing in Norfolk, Va., Aug. 27. That hearing, apparently the most important matter on the WBA’s agenda for its annual convention at Norfolk (Aug. 2630), is expected to approve or reject the already contracted return heavyweight title fight.

Ump Halts Red - Giant Beanballs And Fists

SAN FRANCISCO (UPl)—Only quick irriervention by plate umpire Chris Pelekoudas prevented San Francisco Giants’ coaches from becoming engaged in a full-scale fist fight with Cincinnati Reds players on the bench during Wednesday’s beanballwar. . The action came in the fourth inning after Giants pitcher John Pregenzer hit Reds hurler Bob Purkey. Pelekoudas fined Pregenzer SSO for the action. Then the Cincinnati players on the bench began shouting obscenities at the Giants and invited Manager Alvin Dark to come . over and fight. Dark started out, followed by coaches Herman Franks and Whitey Lockman and pitcher Gaylord Perry. But when Dark got as far as the ' backstop, Pelekoudas stepped ih. He called Reds Acting Manager Dick Sisler to the plate and warned him to have his players stop the taunting. Robinson Nicked Coaches from both sides charged that the other side started the war in which the Reds won the baseball game 7-1. Cincinnati slugger Frank Robinson, who came to the plate after the first three Reds had hit safely and two runs had scored in the first inning, was plunked by Giants hurler Ron Herbel. Robinson went down, then got up screaming invectives at Herbel and, with both fists clenched, raced toward the mound. Plstyers from both benches poured on the field but no blows were tossed. Late in the same inning, Robinson slid roughly into second trying to break up a doubleplay and got into a hot exchange of words with San Francisco shortstop Jimmy Davenport. They started at each other, but were pulled apart. Hart Hit Twice Then in the second inning, Purkey’s fast ball got away from him and smashed into Jim Ray Hart’s shoulder. Dark has a standing order that his pitchers must throw at any pitcher who intentionally hits a Giants batsman. So when Purkey came up, relief hurler John Pregenzer let him have it in the side. And that led to the near - battle between toe two benches. Pregenzer refused to involve

Giants, Reds In Near Brawl; Bird Lead Cut

By GEORGE C. LANGFORD UH Sporto Writer The San Francisco Giants unwittingly drove another nail in their coffin when they ruffled Frank Robinson’s feathers, Robby was plunked by a fast ball from Giant rookie Ron Herbel in the first Inning of Cincinnati’s 7-1 victory ovgr San Francisco Wednesday, and the incident riled toe Reds outfielder. It was the first of four “beanballs” in the contest. When Robinson was intercepted in his attempt to get baek at Herbel on toe mound, he resorted to a more subtle and devastating retort. He slammed a pair of home runs. The solo blasts helped toe Reds pin toe fourth straight defeat on the fading Giants, who dropped six games behind toe league - leading Philadelphia Phillies. Purkey Nicked Hart Winner Bob Purkey, who allowed six hits, nicked Jim Ray Hart in the second inning, and Giant’s hurler John Pregezer hit Purkey in the fourth, resulting in a warning from umpire Chris Pelekoudas that cost Pregezer SSO. This incident emptied both benches and almost resulted in a full-scale fist fight. In the seventh, Purkey hit Hart again but there was no warning. The Phillies rallied with five runs in toe eighth inning to de-

qngr ,Wf -toe the pitch that hit Purkey. "No comment,” was his reply to questions. Hart was hit again in the seventh inning in toe foot by an errant Purkey pitch. But it obviously was just a mistake.

feat, the Chicago Cuba 9-1, the Houston Colts toppled toe St. Louis Cardinals 8-7 in 10 innings; Los Angeles outlasted Milwaukee 74 and toe New York Meta won their fourth straight, 4-2 over Pittsburgh. Baldschun Gets Win Wes Covington drove in toe tying and winning runs for toe Phillies, who entered toe eighth inning trailing 5-4. Before toe inning was completed, the Phillies had scored five runs to insure the victory for reliever Jack Baldschun. Lindy McDaniel, the second of four Chicago pitchers, was toe loser. Ron Santo hit his 24th homer for the Cubs. Nellie Fox stroked a two-out single in toe 10th inning to score Al Spangler with the winning run in toe Colts victory over the Cards. Spangler had reached second on a single and an error by centerfielder Curt Flood. The Cardinals had scored four runs—three on Dick Groat’s double — to take toe lead in toe ninth only to have the Colts tie it on Bob Aspromonte's single, driving in his fourth run of the night. Hits Grand Slam Jim Hickman hit a grand slam homer and Tracy Stallard hurled a six hitter to record toe fourth consecutive complete winning game by a Meta pitcher, a record for toe staff. It is the Meta longest winning streak of toe season and gave them a sweep of toe threegame set with toe Pirates. Hickman's blow came off loser Vern Law (9-11). Frank Howard belted his 21st home run, and only his second in the last month and a half, to help toe Dodgers build up a 6-1 cushion. Eddie Mathews hit his 19to homer in the fifth for toe Braves and Milwaukee scored twice in toe seventh and eighth Innings to pull within one run. A sixth inning sacrifice fly by Tommy Davis drove in toe winning tally, Phil Ortega (55) was toe winner and Wade Blasingame ’ (3-3) absorbed the loss. A.L. Action Johnny Pesky succeeded with a significant experiment

Wednesday night which cost toe Baltimore .Orioles an important .Writ also may have placed Pesky’s best slugger, Dick Stuart, on the trading block. Pesky, who has suffered a frustrating year as manager of toe injury - dogged, pitcherpoor Boston Red Sox, benched Stuart, the American League’s secondlead|ng run - producer for the first 4ime this season and replaced him with 19-year-old bonus baby Tony Horton at first base. Horton, a husky, former high school All - America basketball star in Los Angeles, played flawlessly in the field and delivered a 10th inning double to drive in the winning run in the Red Sox 4-3 triumph over the league - leading Orioles. It has been rumored that if Horton is ready for toe majors, Boston owner Tom Yawkey would consider trading the hard - hitting Stuart, who slugged 42 home runs and drove in 118 tallies last season. Horton, being carried under the first year bonus rule by the Red Sox, has played in 17 games, primarily in leftfield, where his fielding was Unsure. He his hitting .304 with four doubles and a home run and Yawkey may feel his highpriced youngster is ready. Pitched Five Hitter Horton connected off Harvey Haddix, the fifth Baltimore pitcher after Carl Yastremski had singled. The Orioles managed only five hits off starter Earl Wilaon and reliever Dick Radatz, but two were homers by John Powell and John Orsino. The loss cut the Orioles’ margin over the second place Chicago White Sox to a half game. Chicago scored four unearned rung to capture its third straight victory over the New York Yankees 4-2. In other American League games Cleveland toppled Kansas City 6-4, Minnesota tripped Washington 3-1, and Detroit defeated Los Angeles 5-2. Bouton Was Goat Jim Bouton was toe goat of toe Yankees’ loss which shoved them 3\i games behind toe White Sox. Bouton committed two errors on one play when he failed to touch first base after taking a throw from first baseman Joe Pepitone. The play came with two out in the third and the bases loaded and allowed one run to score. Then when Bouton threw the ball

down in disgust at the umpires call, Jim Landis slid across home plate with the second run. McDowen Gets Win Vic Davalillo drove in three runs with, a third inning single to break a 2-2 deadlock for the Indians. Tito Francona scored all the way from first on the hit which came on a 3-2 pitch with two outs and the runners moving. Sam McDowell, with aid from Don McMahon in the seventh, was the winner. Jim Kaat (13-d) pitched the Twins back into the first division for the first time since Aug. 6, allowing eight hits and striking out eight before being relieved in the ninth by Al Worthington. Gerry Zimmerman and Zoilo Versalles each singled home a run in the third for the Twins. Loser Dave Stenhouse forced in the other run with a bases-loaded walk in the first. Al Kaline and Norm Cash clouted homers and pinchhitter Don Demeter singled in the winning run in the seventh inning for the Tigers, moving them ahead of the Angels in fourth place. Joe Sparma (4-5) was the winner, allowing five hits in seven innings, and Aubrey Gatewood (3-2) was the . loser. 1
