Eight-man field chosen to find heavyweight successor
NEW YORK UPI — Floyd Patterson and Jerry Quarry were expected to complete the eight-man field today for the World Boxing Association tournament to find a successor to deposed heavyweight champion Cassius Clay.

Patterson and Quarry, who fought to a bloody 10-round draw last month, will meet in a rematch In the first round of the tournament. The bout is expected to be held in Los Angeles in September. The other first round bouts pit Mildenberger against Argentina Oscar Bonavena in
] Frankfurt, Germany, on Sept. 16, and Terrell against Thad: Spencer of San Francisco and Louisville's James Ellis versus Martin in a doubleheader at Houston’s Astrodome on Aug. | 5. Sports Action Inc. (SAC) has organized the tournament with the blessing of the WBA.

Brandt slugs Astros to win over Cubs
The first bonus baby ever signed by the St Louis Cardinals is now giving old-age insurance to the Houston Astros. Jackie Brandt, who was not even remembered by the scout who had signed him one year after getting a $12,000 bonus from the Cards in 1954, heminded everybody that he is still around by knocking in three runs with three hits Sunday to lift the Astros out of last place with a 6-0 triumph over the Chicago Cubs. Brandt has spent a major league lifetime playing a role of the fleet, young hot-shot who seemed always a bat’s width away from stardom. In 1956 when he broke in with the Cards. General Manager Frank Lane greeted his arrivals by boasting. “The kid looks almost too good to be true.” Then Brandt was shipped to the Giants and Vice President Horace Stoneham declared in 1957, “Jackie is the whole ballplayer.” It’s now 11 years and five teams since observers around the Cardinals’ spring training camp were calling Brandt, “the next Mickey Miantle.” He is no longer tabbed as a potential star, but rather as an occasional fill-in. Elsewhere in the National League. New York nipped Atlanta 5-4, Pittsburgh downed Cincinnati 2-1. Philadelphia defeated St Louis 4-3 in 10 innings and San Francisco edged Los Angeles in 10 innings 1-0. In the American League Washington took a pair from Cleveland 8-5 and 4-2. Detroit split with Boston, taking the opener 10-4 and dropping the nightcap 3-0. Minnesota swept a pair from Chicago 7-4 and 5-1, California whipped Kansas City 4-2 and Baltimore took New York 2-1 after losing a game suspended from Saturday night, 3-L

Beard was never far off the pace. He set the stage for his charge at three-day leader Rod Funseth with a 69 Saturday and equalled that score on the final round in drizzly, humid weather. Funseth, who hasn’t won a major tourney in more than two years, had to settle for a sec-ond-place tie with Rives McBee, who also had a closing round of 69 for a 6-under-par 282. Joe Campbell was next at 283, followed by Gene Littler 284, Bob : Goalby 285, Billy Casper, Steve Spray and R. H. Sikes 286, : Roger Ginsberg 287, and Butch Baird and Bobby Nichols at par
288.
Beard, relying on steady tee ' to green play, trailed Funseth by two strokes with 18 holes to go and figured he w r ould be in business with a 4-under-par 68. But when Funseth faltered amid the pressure of leading three straight days and his score soared to a two-over-par 74, Beard wtis “in.” He missed only one green on his final round, the par 3, 174yard 13th, but managed a three without trouble. He parred every hole except for three front-nine birdies on Nos. 4, 7 and 8.
Twins beat Sox two games; tighten race “September in the American League will be no place for faint hearts.” Mayo Smith spoke those words of wisdom Sunday in Detroit and the echo could have been heard in the Chicago and Minnesota dressing rooms after the Twins beat the White Sox in a doubleheader 7-4 and 5-1 to tighten the American League race. Eddie Stanky welcomed the All-Star break for the White Sox. Cal Elmer was grateful his Twins bounced back and Smith, in all his politeness, spoke of how fortunate it was the Tigers were that close. At the halfway mark, only 2% games seperate the firstplace White Sox and the thirdplace Twins-with the Tigers sandwiched in two games behind the league leaders. It was the Tigers who made hay while Chicago and Minnesota battled to a split in a fourgame series. That was until 24-year-old Jim Lonborg of the Boston Red Sox came along and beat Detroit 3-0 in the second game of the doubleheader to halt thb Tigers’ seven-game winning streak and a rush on first place. Detroit won the first game 10-4.
Ryuns record paces U.S. win LOS ANGELES UPI —“Jim Ryun? They haven’t invented the word to properly describe
him.”
With those words of adulation, United States head Coach Jim Bush pretty well summed up today what transpired as his U.S. team defeated the best of the British Commonwealth, 356295, in the Times International Games. The final team tally showed that the U.S. men clipped their Commonwealth counterparts, 254-170, while the British Empire women edged the American girls, 125-102. A combined two-day crowd of 44,949 watched an impressive dual meet in which several outstanding personal marks were achieved, as 13 meet records fell, but the 20-year-old soft-spoken Kansan stood alone at the apex. In contrast to Rpun’s fantastic record-shattering run of 3:33.1 to lop two and a half seconds off the 1,500 meter record he considered the toughest to break, everything else was anti-climactic. “We’ve had several eras in mile runners,” Bush explained, “Bannister, Elliott, Shell, but Ryun’s taken charge by such a big margin at such an early age, that this marks are bound to last longer. The closest thing to approximate the long-legged Ryun’s performance in eclipsing Australian Herb Elliott’s seven-year-old standard set in the 1960 Rome Olympics was the colorful Iron-man antics of Kenya’s Kipchoge Keino.
American League looks for first victory since 1962
ANAHEIM, Calif. UPI—The American League which hasn't won an All-Star game since 1962 leaned toward ex-local boy Dean Chance to break the National League's dominance Tuesday while high-kicking Juan Marichal will be named to continue it. Chance, of the Minnesota Twins, was a Cy Young Award winner with the California Angels and has an 11-7 record this season. Manager Hank Bauer of the American League was expected to name him officially as the junior circuit starter while Walt Alston of the National League was reported all set to go with the San Francisco Giants’ Marichal, 12-7. Pitching, however, was not the major problem confronting
Bauer who has to decide which : are the healthy players in his Arnica brigade. The American League team lost its two leading sluggers. A1 Kaline of Detroit and Frank Robinson of Bauer's own Baltimore Orioles, the day the team selections were announced. And if that isn’t enough. Bauer has to decide if Harmon Killebrew of the Twins, teammate Rod C a r e w and Rico Petrocelli of the Boston Red Sox are well enough to perform in the annual classic. Because of the injury problem that has plagued the American League team, the senior circuit was favored 13-10 in the Las Vegas odds to win the game Tuesday. The biggest problem that
Walter Alston had to solve was how to arrange his outfielders. Hank Aaron of the Atlanta Braves. Roberto Clemente of the Pittsburgh Pirates and Lou Brock of the St. Louis Cardinals play right field normally. Alston indicated prior to his arrival here today for the press conference at which he said he would make public his lineup thta he would play Brock in left field, Aaron at center field and Clemente in right field. The California Angels managemen predicted a near-ca-pacity crowd of 46,000 for the 38th renewal of the All-Star game which was scheduled to get underway at 4:15 p.m., PDT, (7:15 p.m., EDT),
