TO SAT that George Scott and Rick Reichardt are playing the “Flip” side of the record is putting it mildly. The two young, powerful rookies in the American League are stroking their way to a new A. L. rookie home run mark still held by A1 (Flip) Rosen of the Indians, set in 1950. Flip Rosen, now a successful stock broker in Cleveland, smashed 37 home runs in the 1950 season, his first full year with the Tribe, that set a rookie home run mark for the junior circuit and also won him homer honors in his league for the year. The N. L. mark is 38, held jointly by Wally Berger of the 1930 Braves and Frank Robinson, then with - the Reds, in 1956. At the moment, Scott, the Red Sox Infielder, and Reichardt, the 6175,000 bonus beauty outfielder of the California Angels, are neck and neck in leading the pack, having hit their 12th homer of the year by their 42nd game. And. with

George Scott Rick Reichardt AI Rosea

a 162-game season their chances appear mighty bright. • • • REICHARDT, who is 23, is a big guy weighing 215 and standing 6'3* tall and was perhaps the most-sought-after youngster in baseball history when he was starring at the University of Wisconsin. He had his first pro experience with Quad Cities In 1964 and last year was at Seattle where he played in 131 games and hit just 13 homers. • • • THE STORT of Scott is one of the features of the 1966 season. Another powerful young man—he's 6'2* tall and weighs 217—was not figured in the Red Sox plans this year at first but his booming bat brought him attention. He came up from Pittsfield in the Eastern League where he led the loop with 25 homers. The Sox were going with Joe Foy at third for Foy was their outstanding prospect But Scott ousted Foy from the spot and then was moved over to first by manager Billy Herman. • • • BOTH REICHARDT and Scott, particularly Scott, already have captured the imagination of the fans with their power and tape measure jobs. Scott blasted one in Detroit's Tiger Stadium that narrowly missed clearing the roof in left field. He hit one in the top deck at Yankee Stadium that almost duplicated one Jimmy Foxx hit there way back in 1932. Sam Mele, manager of the Twins, recently was talking about Scott. “That fellow is amazing,’’ he said. “He hit everything we threw him. He's an aggressive hitter. He attacks the ball.” Reichardt has been helped by manager Bill Rigney and batting coach Joe Gordon. They made him stand virtually on top of the plate because he was missing outside pitches. It has worked, even though he has been hit by the pitcher a half-dozen times and probably will set a new record of 40 or more if it continues.

Richie Allen Slams Three Hits For Phillies' Victory

By JOE GERGEX Richie Allen, who frequently works out with a wrelterweight, has been w r orking over opposing National League pitchers with the force of a heavyweight champion. There's nothing strange about that, of course, because Allen Is a heavyweight (a solid 185 pounds) and is ranked right at the top of his division, which happens to be N.L. batters. The Philadelphia Phillies’ strong boy is a good friend and companion of welterweight Stanley (Kitten) Hayward, a successful local boy who occasionally has flirted with world ratings. Richie isn’t quite as sharp with his fists as Hayward, but with a bat he's dynamite. The 24-year-old Allen, back in the lineup for only l 1 ,2 weeks after missing a month’s action with a dislocated shoulder, slammed a homer, double and single Monday night to lead the Phillies to a 6-2 victory over the league-leading San Francisco Giants and a 3-1 split decision in their four-game series. Allen’s performance lifted him into first place in the senior circuit with a .347 batting average and solidified Philadelphia’s hold on fourth place in the N.L., ZI3 games behind the Giants. The contest was the only one played in the N.L. Washington ended a scoring game with a 5-3 victory over the Baltimore Orioles and Chicago clipped the California Angels 5-1 in the only American League games. Allen,’ who hit his eighth home run of the season and fourth In the last six games in the fourth inning to give the Phillies a 2-1 lead, personally kayoed San Francisco starter Bob Bolin In the fifth with a

run-scoring double which capped a two-run tie-breaking rally. His single in the seventh set up Philadelphia’s final run. Although his throwing arm is still in such bad shape that manager Gene Mauch has been forced to play him in left field instead of third base, Allen is hitting .333 since returning to the lineup and has slammed five home runs. The team has won 10 and lost three since his return after floundering around the .500 mark for the first month of the season. Rick Wise, a 20-year-old righthander, pitched his first major league complete game and struck out eight Giants for his initial triumph of the year. He allowed eight hits and was in control throughout the game. Tony Taylor also homered for the Phillies and Johnny Callison drove in a pair of runs, with a double and single. The Senators, who had scored only one run in their last four games, broke loose as Frank Howard and Eddie Brinkman crashed home runs. Howard’s was a three-run blast in the third and Brinkman’s solo shot capped the Washington scoring. Phil Ortega checked the Orioles on five hits, two of them homers by Frank Robinson, to post his third straight victory and fifth overall. Rookie Lee Elia slammed his first major league homer and Bill Skowran also hit one out of the park to supply the punch for the White Sox, who executed four double plays to bail out starter Juan Pizarro. Dennis Higgins preserved Pizarro’s fifth win in six decisions with four innings of hitless relief.

Foyt Moved To Hometown Hospital WEST ALLIES, Wis. UPI — Race driver, A. P. Foyt, burned in a Saturday crash, was transferred from West Allies Memoorial Hospital today to a hospital in his hometown of Houston, Tex. He is listed in good condition after suffering second and third degree bums on his hands, face and neck during practice last Saturday for a race at the Wisconsin state fair park. “There is a very optimistic outlook as to the future function of his hands,” a hospital spokesman said. Foyt said he put his hands on burning fuel on the car to pull himself out of the cockpit. The car had slammed into a wall. Foyt, the only driver injured in a 16-car pileup on the first lap of the Indianapolis 500mile race on Memorial Day, indicated he plans to race again.

DETROIT UPI —A slimmed down Charlie Dressen left a Detroit hospital after spending three weeks recuperating from his second heart attack in 14 months.

Light Turnout In South Dakota PIERRE, S. D. UPI — A light turnout was expected today in a South Dakota Republican primary in which Sen. Karl Mundt was faced with his first party opposition since his election to the senate 18 years ago. Mundt showed little concern with the challenge of Richard Murphy a former member of the John Birch Society, and has brushed off Murphy’s attempt to label him as a liberal. Murphy, 36, said he quit the John Birch Society in "disillusionment” because he was ordered to pull out of the senatorial race by society founded Robert Welch. He has campaigned against Great Society programs.

Signal Hearing Is Continued INDIANAPOLIS UPI — A hearing on a petition to require automatic railroad crossing signals near a new Miami County school was continued Monday until July 5 after a frustrating afternoon. The hearing is on a petition by the Miami County Commissioners to require the Pennsylvania Railroad to establish signals at a point where the railroad crosses two roads heavily used by buses and other traffic going to and from Maconaquah

SchooL

Public Service Commissioner Phillip Bayt presided at the hearing in the emergency absence of hearing examiner Robert Staton, to whom the case originally was assigned. Only two witnesses were heard and much of the time was devoted to a legal effort to establish facts concerning the locale. Ray Geyer, superintendent of Maconaquah, told of the need for crossing protection in order to avoid a future tragedy. He said from 10 to 15 buses cross the tracks four times a day during regular school months and summer classes also are scheduled. Geyer said the new school serves Bunker Hill Air Force Base families and about half of the high school students are children of servicemen. An Air Force officer was among the persons waiting to testify. A. L. Hartman, Indiana State Highway Department engineer, testified about the location of the railroad crossing. Attorneys for the county commissioners sought to obtain a field hearing in the county whenever the case is resumed. However, Bayt took this motion under advisement.

"I personally cannot conduct a field hearing,” Bayt explained, “but whether Mr. Staton

can, I do not know.”

The county commissioners indicated that as many as 100 witnesses might want to be heard if the hearing could be

held in the county.

Fewer than 2 per cent of the atoms present in any human body were there the previous

year.
