Adams Hurls Nationals To 8-6 Victory By Sports Editor Frank Puckett, Jr. With the help of hard-shoot-ing hurler Jerry Adams the National Food Producers (Buis Feeds) chalked up their first victory in as many tries of the year by easily defeating Dan-

ville 8-5. •

Adams had only one inning of trouble during the entire game and that came in the bottom of the seventh When Danville loaded the bases on a widely controversial call by the umpires. But after walking in one run the fast-ball artist calmed things to a mild roar by firing three strikes out of four pitches to retire the side and give the National Food Producers the game. Both teams failed to score in a topsy-turvy first inning, but things came alive in the top of the second. National left fielder drew a base on balls and managed to steal second off a wild pitch. Hurler Adams was the man at the plate who connected with a high flying fast ball that bounced off the first baseman’s glove and resulted in the first home run of the game. The Nationals then found themselves holding a 2-0 edge. Failing to score until the fifth the Nationals scored one run off a long hit fly ball to right field by catcher Myers while the Danville squad, led by McClain, managed to score three runs during the bottom of the fifth. Sixth inning action caught both teams scoring once again. It was Adams for the Nationals once more as he slugged a high pop fly over the head of the right fielder for a triple and one RBI. Covert then followed suite by knocking a triple that allowed Adams to score. Danville made their last bid in the bottom of the sixth as they hustled one run. “ The Nationals chalked up three more runs in the seventh compared to Danville’s one run to claim their first victory of the season. ,

Golfers Have Their Problems ST. LOUIS UPI — Indiana golfers were having their problems going into today’s second round of the U.S. Open golf championship. Pros Sam Carmichael of Martinsville and Billy Maxwell of Indianapolis w’ere eight strokes behind first round leader Kel Nagle of Australia with identical first rounds of 6-over-par 76. And they made the best showing of the Hoosiers. One stroke behind them at 77 w*ere Indianapolis amateur Ed Tutwiler and pro George Thomas of Michigan City. Pro Fred Wampler of St. Louis, formerly of Indianapolis, had a first-

round 85.

INDIANAPOLIS UPI—What the Indiana high school "All Stars’’ lack in height, they’ll make up in speed and aggressiveness when they meet a similar group from Kentucky Saturday night. At least that’s what their coach Angus Nicoson is hoping. The contest at the Butler Fieldhouse is the first half of a two-game mid-summer series sponsored by the Indianapolis Star for its blind fund. The second contest will be held in Louisville. The tallest man on the Hoosier squad this year is only 6-4 and he’s Earl Schneider of Evansville Rex Mundi, a member of the ‘‘second five.” ‘‘But that’s not exactly a disadvantage,” Nicoson pointed out. “This may be a small team, but it’s quick, aggressive, has good speed and is alert,” he added. He did concede Kentucky will have a “definite” height advantage on the boards with 6-7 Rus-

sell Golden and Alvin Ratliff, Wayne Carby and Jerry King, all 6-5. Things are not all roses for Kentucky coach Joe Seibel, however, His team is "hurting” physically. His top player, Butch Beard, is on the sidelines and so is Rick Hendrick, his No. 3 shooter. Both have ankle injuries and Seibel said he doesn't think Hendrick will be able to play at all in the opener. That left Beard on the “doubtful” list. An advantage Kentucky may hold is the fact that Nicoson must start the players who received the most votes from Indiana’s sportswriters and broadcasters, who this year gave him the smallest squad since he took over the reins in 1952. The rules don’t say how long this combination must be on the floor though. Seibel can start any player he pleases. But Nicoson isn’t complaining. On that starting quintet are Bill Keller and jumping Ralph Taylor of Indianapolis Washing-

ton’s state champions, Dave Moser of tourney runnerup Fort Wayne North, Don Curnutt ol Tipton, and Harold Curdy ol Marion. Rounding out the club ar« Bugs Humes of Madison, Adolphus Pulliam of Gary Roosevelt, Larry Kidwell of Princeton and Dave Harvey of Indianapolis ( Tech. “These boys are all pretty good outsdie shooters besides being able to hit from under- ; neath," said Nicoson. “We have good balance In team offense and they're quick on defense. I think they came into condition a bit quicker than bigger boys and overall, this team is in as good a shape as any I’ve had.” The Hoosiers are carrying a 23-10 overall series margin as they wind-up their final practices at the fieldhouse today. But during the past five years, the two teams split even- Indiana losing at home and Kentucky being unable to win at Louisville.

Titant Strains Muscle Tiant, who won 10 games for the Indians last season after being called up from Portland in July, strained a muscle in his forearm in the first squad game of spring training this year and was sidelined for almost a

month.

He started slowly this season but has come on in recent weeks to hurl five complete game victories including the one-hitter and a two-hit performance. He now owns a 6-3 won-lost record. Woodie Held ruined Tiant’s no-hit bid with a clean single to center field leading off the seventh inning. Prior to the hit only four men had reached base

walk. Tiant struck out pitcher Phil Ortega to get out of that jam. Wagner Provides Punch Leon Wagner provided Cleve'and’s offense with a three-run lomer off Ortega in the fourth md a run-scoring single in the Mghth.

INDIANAPOLIS UPI — The Indianapolis Indians, three games off the pace in the east- ; ern division of the Pacific Coast League, took a two-game winning streak on the road today against Salt Lake City. The Tribe made it two in a row over Spokane Thursday night, 4-3, in 11 innings, Danny Murphy’s two-out pinch single breaking up the scrap and giv. ing Dennis Higgins his second victory in relief in as many

nights.

The Indians split their fourgame series with Spokane just as they did against Portland after dropping four in a row to Tacoma to topple from the division lead.
