Tuesday night McMurtry won a unanimous 10-round deci sion here over Garvin Sawyer of New York. McMurtry said he thinks this qualifies him for another fight with Valdes, who knocked him out in a TV fight at Madison Square Garden last year. There were no knockdowns in Tuesday night's fight. But Mc Murtry, who weighed 188 pounds, had his 192-pound opponent in trouble twice. In the fifth round McMurtry got Sawyer into his own corner and let fly with a left to the chin that had Sawyer reeling. Sawyer slow ed down after that. Again in the eighth, McMurtry opened a slash ing attack that left Sawyer grog gy. But again Sawyer wouldn't go down. After the bout, McMurtry said he also has an offer to meet Tony Anthony in a nationally televised fight. But McMurtry said he was not too pleased by his performance in his first bout since he was knocked out by Valdes last December. "Two weeks ago I was sharp in the gym. Tonight I wasn't," he said. "I don't know what was wrong. It seemed that I was tired out after the fourth round." During the last two rounds, the slim crowd of 1.195 booed repeat edly. The crowd paid a gate of $3,115. All For Pa Referee Ralph Gruman scored the fight 99-92. Judge Andy Crab tree had it 98-93 and judge Stan Blank, 98-83. The Associated Press scored it 99-91 for McMurtry. One of the preliminary fighters was hospitalized after he was knocked out. Leon Hatcher. 190, San Fran cisco, was knocked out in the third round of a scheduled six- rounder by Floyd Palmer, 185, Portland. Hatcher revived slowly in the dressing room, and was sent to Good Samaritan Hospital as a precaution, said Dr. Jack Battalia, the ring physician. "He was hit a good one and was still a little confused in the dress ing room," Dr. Battalia said. "JVe put him in the hospital just to keep an eye on mm. i tnimc we'll release him this morning." Hatcher suffered no apparent injuries, the doctor said, and the hospital reported his condition to day as satisfactory. Result of other preliminaries: Scheduled eight rounds Bobby Brown, 145, Longview, Wash., awarded a third-round knockout over Harold Nelson, 142, Portland. Scheduled four rounds Ernie Gipson, 160, Seattle, awarded a second round knockout over Craw ford Neal, 165, Los Angeles; Sam Norman, 142, Portland, awarded a second found knockout over Eddie Wilson, 146, Los Angeles.

The Los .Angeles Dodgers won their fourth in a row Tuesday night, beating Philadelphia 3-1 be hind the five-hit pitching of young Danny McDevitt. That gave the Dodgers a half-game lead over Milwaukee although the two clubs are tied percentagewise (.600). Tbe Braves lost 7-3 to the Chicago Cubs. St. Louis kept Cincinnati from making it a virtual three-way tie by beating the Reds 7-4. Pittsburgh defeated San Francisco 6-5 in 12 innings. No one has been able to put to gether more than a four - game string in the National League scramble. Fact is, only the Braves and Dodgers have won that many in a row.

For the second time this sea son, the little Los Angeles left hander Tuesday night pitched a full nine inning game without walking a man. And the Dodgers, exploiting his five-hit pitching, whipped Philadelphia 3-1 and pulled into a first-place tie with the Milwaukee Braves. "It's a matter of concentra tion," McDevitt said after the 3-1 victory. "I've slowed up my deliv ery so I can get a better picture of the target. I used to be looking at the hitter and then at the tar get. Now I go through the motion (of the windup) more slowly, and I don't take my eyes off the spot I'm aiming at." first four and took first place early in April. The Dodgers won four straight and came within .133 per centage points of first place three weeks ago.

The Dodgers now have won sev en of their last 10, and McDevitt has two of the three complete games the pitching staff has pro duced in that span. The 26-year-old lefty (2-1) had a two-hit shutout until the eighth inning when Wil lie Jones hit his seventh home run, McDevitt walked none, fanned six.

Duke Snider singled home the final run in the eighth off reliever Jack Moyer. BurdeH Bested The Cubs handed five-game win ner Lew Burdette his second loss in a row, scoring five in the ninth at Chicago on a home run by Walt Moryn and pinch-hitter Earl Avcr ill's first grand-slam.

Gordon Jones (1 2), fourth of six Giant pitchers, was the loser. Bcnnie Daniels, who lost his first decision as a starter Mon day night, won this one in relief, although roughed up for two runs in the 12th on two singles and three errors. Two of the boots were by Bob Clemente, whose sin gle proved the clincher for the Pi rates. Yesterday's Stars .

Robinson, 39, signed a contract here Tuesday to fight Basilio on Sept. 21 in Philadelphia's 100,000 seat Municipal Stadium.

The fight would be promoted by Samuel Rose, a city councilman, who was not' present at the news conference. He is ill in a hospital. Robinson would get 45 per cent of an estimated $750,000 to one million dollar gate and the same percentage of more than $300,000 in television and radio receipts. Basilio would receive 20 per cent. By signing, Robinson partially fulfilled a New York State Athletic Commission ultimatum to sign for a Basilio fight by Friday or lose his title in that state.
