THE END’S IN SIGHT—Like figures in a tableau, the Twins Don Mincher (5), Dodgers Don Drysdale, catcher John Roseboro and umpire Ed Hurley watch Drysdale's pitch soar out of the park—opening the floodgates on a torrent of Twins power. Mincher’s blow tied the score temporarily at one-all in the opening game of the World Series.

“If you try to be too cute, you may get yourself in trouble. Strikes are the name of the

Kaat threw 105 pitches in the nine innings, 31 of them balls. Later he followed the same pattern as the Dodgers’ Koufax, packing his left elbow T in ice. He's followed this routine since June due to tendon-

Zoilo Versalles, again a sparkplug for the winners, said he tried to cause a wild pitch, to enable him to score, when on base after his 7th inning triple.

Good Weather

Forecast

LOS ANGELES UPI—Hazy sunshine with 80-degree temper- : atures was forecast today for : Saturday’s third game of the l world Series between Los Angeles' Dodgers and the Minne-

j sota Twins.

The U. S. Weather Bureau said the thermometer probably will climb twm to six degrees above the 78 average. No rain was anticipated, and I the same general conditions : were forecast for the remainder

of the weekend.

IRA PRICE LAKE A 25 acre lake was recently completed on the Ira Price farm 3 miles w est of Greencastle. This is the largest privately owned lake in Putnam County. Construction of the lake was supervised by Granville Thompson, private engineer. Joe Hollis of the U.S. Soil Conservation Service was the consulting engineer. The plans for the lake were approved by the Indiana Flood Control and Water Resources Commission before construction began. The dam containing 38,837 cubic yards of fill dirt is approximately 600 feet long and 37 feet high. The lake at normal pool level will be Vz-mile in length and have approximately 2 miles of shore line. The lake began to fill with water in December of 1964 and now is 22 feet deep. It is not expected to reach normal pool level until sometime during the summer of 1966. The Soil Conservation Service arranged for fish to be supplied to Mr. Price through the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The lake was stocked with 25,000 Redear Sunfish and 2,500 Channel Catfish. Next summer 5,000 Large Mouth Bass will be supplied to Mr. Price.

Will Try for First Big 10 Victory

Indiana To Meet Minnesota Sat.

BLOOMINGTON — Encouraged by the stout performance against Texas but mindful that it still added up to a 27-12 loss, Indiana sets its sights on a first Big Ten victory at Minnesota Saturday, fully aware that “the mistakes must be eliminated to achieve it. “Were concentrating on individual work,” said Coach John Pont, “trying to correct the breakdowns in assignments and technique. We played well enough to win but mistakes in key situations cost us our chance. “Just a few- things here and there keep us from being a real good football team. But these

are things which can be corrected.” Last week the problem re1 volved around mental preparation of the squad. A flat mental situation was the villain in the shocking 20-0 loss to Northwestern. That was corrected during the week, as evidenced by the great effort and sharpness at Texas, and the problem now leans toward the physical factor. At least nine Hoosiers were sidelined in early week from injuries. If all return by Saturday they still will have lost valuable preparation. “This is a young club,” Pont commented, “and the work they

Eight Big 10 Teams to See Conference Action Saturday

CHICAGO UPI —Eight Big Ten football teams tackle conference rivals Saturday, leaving Wisconsin and Northwestern with the Big order of trying to improve the league's so-so showing with outside opposi- i

tion.

Wisconsin and Northwestern, j victorious In their only Big Ten tests this season, share a three-way lead with Michigan State. But the Badgers will be 17point underdogs when they go against Nebraska. The Cornniskers, rated No. 1 by the UPI board of coaches, boast a perfect 3-0 record which in-; eludes a 44-0 walloping of Iowa State last week. The oldsmakers do not see things as larkly for Northwestern. The Wildcats are rated even with Oregon State, their opponent Saturday. Thus far this season. Big Ten teams have won 10. lost 10 and tied 3 with non-conference squads. Within the conference, the schedule sends Illinois to Ohio State. Indiana to Minnesota, j Purdue to Iowa, and Michigan State to Michigan. Ohio State. Minnesota. Purdue and Michigan State are favored to win. j The Boilermaker - Hawkeye 1 match will display two of the conference finer quarterbacks in Garni Snook and Bob Griese. | Iowa's Snook was the league's top passer last season with a .511 completion record of passes which were good for 875 j

yards. Five went for touch-

downs

This season Snook has not yet tossed a scoring pass and is completing his throws at .480. Purdue's Griese is the Big Ten's quarterback of the year thus far. He has connected on 46 or 60 attempts for 622 yards. This vv’orks out to a completion percentage of .767. The Michigan State-Michi-gan get-together at Ann Arbor is assured of a sell-out house of more than 100,000 persons for the 18th consecutive year. These two Big Ten neighbors drew the all-time collegiate record of 1$3,234 spectators in 1959.

will have missed is bound to have an effect on their efficiency.” Only certain loss is John Heaton, a defensive end and kicking specialist, who suffered knee ligament damage. Fullback Terry Cole, who drew his first start against the Longhorns, is slated to take over Heaton's extra-point, field goal and kickoff duties. Heaton’s loss as a No. 2 right defensive end adds more problems, what with No. 1 Jon Eickstead, nursing a badly bruised ankle, highly doubtful for play. Allan Myszewski, who came , up with a fine clutch perform- ! ance when hurriedly moved I from left to right end on defense at Texas, currently is : slated to play the position. Sohpomore Gary Cassells, who ! broke into an earlier game for a minute, is being groomed to jback him up. Eickstead’s punting chores probably will be handled by I End Bill Malinchak, who dazzled Texas fans with his play. In addition to catching eight passes for 133 yards and both ; touchdowns, Malinchak took over for Eickstead and averaged 38.3 yards on four punts. Moreover, he added a new dimension by twice running from punt formation for 14 and 41yard gains. Other injured include Defensive Halfback John Durkott and Defensive Guard John Jones, but both are expected back for full duty by the weekend. Competition for starting places against the Gophers may be unusually keen. Reggie Woods, who averaged seven yards per carry against Texas, is threatening veteran John Ginter at left halfback, and Mike Kirvashia is contesting with Terry Cole, who made his first start last weekend, at full-

back.

Kirvoshia was No. 2 fullback behind Lee Robinson in pre-sea-son drills and was expected to move in when Robinson was lost for the season. Instead he came up with tendon trouble. “Mike is a pretty healthy young man at the moment.” Pont said, “and it's well within possibilities that he could move

, up.”

The Hoosiers may gain back Randy Beisler, the 6-4. 2421 pound defensive tackle for the Gophers. Beisler didn't make the traveling squad last week but appears whole again and is getting a shot at defensive , guard this week.

LOS ANGELES UPI — V is for vindication for big, bullshouldered Bob Allison, who once played fullback for Kansas and frequently is needled about playing the outfield the same way for Minnesota. “They’ll never kid him anymore, or at least they never should, about the lumbering way he runs or the way he uses his glove after that eyepopping, game-saving catch he made for the Twins Thursday before 48.700 in-person witnes- ' ses at Minnesota's Metropoli-

The Dodger rookie second baseman lit into one of Jim Kaat’s fast balls and pulled it to deep left field near the foul pole. Allison, playing Lefebvre more toward center, looked as if he had no chance at all to get anywhere near the sinking,

curving shot.

No one in the park thought he had a chance except perhaps one person — Allison. “I knew it was drifting away from me,” said the husky, 31-year-old Kansas grad. “Even so I thought I had a good chance of getting to it.” Allison started coming and never quit. He thundered over the rain-dampened turf with all of his 220 pounds and six feet, four inches straining mightily in the direction of the menacing wire fence w’hich fringes the left field stands along the foul

line.

He twisted his glove backward and caught the ball as he hurtled tow’ard the fence and began sliding over the grass on his right side. Even as he sat there gro-tesque-like on the cold, wet turf, he quickly raised his gloved

The three new entries go along with that of A. J. Foyt, four-time national big car champion and two-time Indianapolis 500 winner from Houston, Tex., who filed his entry earlier this week. Foyt will be making his first and possibly only midget appearance of the

season.
