Injury-plagued Tiger Cubs meet West Vigo here tomorrow night

Frisch frowns on modern players but likes McCarver
BOSTON UPI _ The most charitable way to describe | Frankie Frisch is crotchety. Most of the modem day ballplayers describe him differ- 1 ently. They just say he's an old crank. But they’re prejudiced, i The reason they say that about Frankie Frisch is because they don’t care if he has
“Now there’s a kid I’d love to have if I were still managing.” He was pointing to Tim Mc-
Carver.
'That’s what I call a ballplayer,” Frankie Frisch went on warmly. “He’s the kind of ! kid who takes a lot of things off a manager’s mind. Look at 1 him! He’s interested in his Job;
Mollenkopf UPI coach of the week
LAFAYETTE UPI — Fourthrated Purdue completed a rare sweep of college football honors Wednesday when Jack Mollenkopf was named UPI coach of the week and Dick Marvel Midwest lineman of the week. Versatile halfback Leroy Keyes earlier was named UPI Midwest back of the week—all the result of the Boilermakers’ stunning 28-21 upset of then top-ranking Notre Dame last
Saturday.
“I have to give my staff all the credit,” said Mollenkopf, i w'ho became coach of the week for the third time since taking charge of the Riveters a dozen
years ago.
“You can do all the planning and preparing you want and lots of times your plans fall apart. But we got fine execution from our players—I can’t recall when wa had such a unified ef-
fort,” added the coach.
He cited virtually his entire team for the effort against the Irish but had special praise for Marvel, Keyes and Mike Phipps,
his upstart quarterback.
“He’s not very big for a linebacker,” Mollenkopf said of Marvel, a Mishawaka junior, | “but he has a great heart and he sticks his nose into the

BOSTON UPI—Speedy little Lou Brock scored twice, tied a recced with four straight hits, and stole two bases Wednesday to lead the St. Louis Cardinals to a 2-1 victory over the Boston Red Sox n the opening game of the 1967 World Seres. Brock shared first game honors with Cardinal righthander Bob Gibson, who pitched all the way for the triumphscattering six Boston hits and striking out 10 batters. Only a third-inning home run
by losing pitcher Jose Santiago | prevented Gibson, making a comeback from a broken leg suffered this summer, from pitching a shutout. But a crowd of 34,796 at Fenway Park saw the underdog Sox hang on in a grim battle on the strength of Santiago’s home rim. Two brilliant double plays and a spectacular throw by Carl Yastrzemski that npped a runner at the plate prevented further St. Louis scoring, al(Continued on Page 8)
