Cardinals to repeat?

By MICHAEL MINER ST. LOUIS (UPI)—The St. Louis Cardinals could be a question mark next year. The Detroit Tigers not only beat St. Louis in the World Series. They exposed virtually every weakness on the Cardinals’ team. These begin with what seems to be an over-reliance on Bob Gibson and Lou Brock. Gibson turned out to be only mortal in the seventh game of the World Series, a pitcher capable of being done in on occasion by a few base hits and a misjudged line drive. Brock had a marvelous series, with 13 hits and seven stolen

bases, but it was much better before he was thrown out at second in the third inning of the fifth game. In that same game Brock was thrown out at home and in later games was picked off first and let two balls get by him in left field. St. Louis scored three runs in the first inning of that fifth game. In the next 26 innings they scored two runs. Except for Gibson, the Cardinal pitching staff compiled a 6.94 earned run average against Detroit. The Cardinals have pointed with pride to Steve Carlton, Nelson Briles, Larry Jaster and their other young pitchers. But they failed against Detroit. Carlton and Jaster, who pitched exceptionally the first half of the 1968 season, folded in mid-summer. The Cardinals hope the 24-year-old Carlton can

come back. But Jaster might wind up with an expansion team. The Cardinal starting nine probably will remain the highest-paid and perhaps the best in baseball, despite the retirement of Roger Maris. But expansion and trades are likely to hurt the team’s bench. The World Series was barely over before reports came in that Bobby Tolan and John Edwards were on their way to Cincinnati and Houston for Vada Pinson and Dave Giusti. Pinson would replace Maris in right field and Giusti would help shore up a shaky pitching staff. Real Tops BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (UPI) —Southeastern Conference officials had an easy time this year naming the top 10 single game scoring leaders in college basketball. He was Pete (Pistol Pete) Maravich, all-American sophomore from Louisiana State University. He has all top 10 places with points scored ranging from 49 against Auburn to 59 against Alabama.

UPI all-star team

By FRED DOWN UPI Sports Writer NEW YORK (UPI)— Pitchers Bob Gibson of the St. Louis Cardinals and Denny McLain of the Detroit Tigers and National League batting champion Pete Rose of the Cincinnati Reds were the leading vote-getters on the UPI 1968 major league AllStar team selected today by 24 baseball experts. Also named to the team were third baseman Mike Shannon of the Cardinals, catcher Bill Freehan of the Tigers, first baseman Willie McCovey of the San Francisco Giants, second baseman Glenn Beckert of the Chicago Cubs, shortstop Bert Campaneris of the Oakland Athletics and outfielders Carl Yastrzemski of the Boston Red Sox and Frank Howard* of the Washington Senators. Gibson and Rose received 23 of a possible 24 votes each while McLain received 22 in the voting which was completed oefore the start of the World series. Two pitching votes went o Luis Tiant of the Cleveland mdians and one went to Juan Marichal of the Giants. Lolich Ignored Mickey Lolich of the Tigers, whose three victories made him the star of the World Series, did not receive any votes on the basis of somewhat erratic season during which he had a 17-9 record. Following the top three in the voting were McCovey with 20, Frehan with 17, Beckert with 16, Campaneris with 15, Yastrzemski with 14, Shannon with 10 and Howard with eight. Gibson, McLain and Rose were in the headlines all season with brilliant performances. Gibson compiled a 22-9 record with 13 shutouts and an NL record 1.12 earned run average, McLain posted a 31-6 record to become the majors’ first 30-game winner since 1934 and Rose beat out Matty Alou in one of the tightest finishes for a batting title with a .335 average. Freehan batted .263 with 25 homers and 84 runs batted in to play a major role in Detroit’s march to its first American

League championship since 1945. Score High McCovey, who is being championed by teammate Willie Mays as a strong candidate for NL most valuable player honors, batted .293, hit 36 homers and drove in 105 runs and Howard batted .274, hit 44 homers and knocked in 106 runs — exceptional performances in "the year of the pitchers.” Beckert developed rapidly as the Cubs’ second baseman and, although once considered a poor hitter, wound up with a .294 average. Campaneris, the most versatile player in baseball, batted .276 and was a key man in the Athletics’ surprisingly, good showing. Shannon, who had 15 homers and 79 RBI’s to go with a .266 average, was considered the Cardinals’ most productive hitter during most of the season and Yastrzemski’s .301 average was good enough to make him a three-time American League batting champion.

Schulte’s Humphrey too much for Cubs

By MARK STEELE Sports Editor The worst thing about Schulte’s 62-0 man handling of Greencastle last night in the Western Indiana Conference game at Terre Haute, was the fact that the Golden Bears of coach Jay Barrett never missed a scoring opportunity. Only once did the Bears not score when in possession of the ball. A fumble in the first half was the only time Schulte didn’t light up the scoreboard or when a drive started didn’t end with a score. One thing was apparent in the Golden Bears play and that was Prep scores INDIANA FOOTBALL By United Press International HIGH SCHOOL Indianapolis Washington 14 Indianapolis Ripple 7 Evansville Mater Dei 12 Evansville North 0 Indianapolis Shortridge 51 Indianapolis Attucks 0 Jeffersonville 48 Greensburg 0 Marion 40 Kokomo 0 Indianapolis Chatard 34 Indianapolis Scecina 7 Evansville Rex Mundi 20 Mount Vernon 20 (tie!

Ron Humphrey’s, WIC’s scoring leader, attempt to break the twoyear scoring record of Mike Blackwell of Honey Creek. Blackwell scored 127 points in conference competition in 1966 and Humphrey’s five touchdowns last night gave the 5-10, 185 pound senior 14 tallies and 85 points with three league games left on the Schulte schedule. In two quarters Humphrey accounted for 146 yards in rushing, carrying 21 times and caught three passes for 47 yards. Totals in the mismatch,Schulte ended the night with 277 yards rushing and 156 yards in the air for a 433 yard offensive assault. Greencastle ended the night with 54 yards rushing and added 18 more in the air, with most of the gains in the fourth quarter. The inexperienced Cubs were held to just nine yards rushing in the first half with their deepest penetration going to the Schulte 47 on a penalty aided play. A 12-yard run by Dan Murphy in the fourth quarter and a 12yard pass play from quarterback Rick Bundy to end Darryl Pierce were the biggest plays of the night for coach Jim McCammon’s squad that slipped to a 2-6 mark overall. The defeat dropped the Cubs to 1.2 in the loop with four league games remaining. Schulte is now 3-1-1 in WIC competition with games against Wiley, Clinton and

Sullivan remaining. In other action last night around the conference, Wiley upset Gaifield 14-7, knocking them from second place, Clinton beat Hone) Creek 28-6 moving the Wildcats into second place, and West Vigo won its second straight conference scrap 33-7 over Linton, boosting the Vikings out of the WIC cellar. Out of league action saw Brazil trim Plainfield 30-7 for the ninth time in 10 years, and tonight undefeated Gerstmeyer will play Evansville Harrison.
