Immaturity of outlook has been the only rap against the 6-foot-3, 200-pound right-hander from De troit. Mich., since he startled American League hitters with his pitching savvy as a 19-year-old rookie in 1958. Pappas compiled a 65-49 record from 1958 through 1902 but he still was regarded as a "problem child." But so far this season all the problems are being encountered by rival hitters. Pappas turned in his second shutout and his fourth straight victory of the season Monday night in a 6 0 win over the De troit Tigers that enabled the Or ioles to move into a first-place tie with the Chicago White Sox. Pappas allowed only one run in each of his other two victories, Hole-In-One Carded By Roy Ledbetter Roy Ledbetter, Winston, stole the spotlight from other golfers Monday morning at the Roseburg Municipal Course when he fired a holeinone on the eighth hole. Ledbetter, using an eight iron, drilled the ball on target over the 149-yard hole. He is a Rose burg Lumber Co. employee and has been golfing for three years. The hole-in-ont came for Led better while he was playing a twosome with K. Quint, Rose burg. PACKERS SIGN TWO GREEN BAY, Wis.

Tue., May 21, 1963 Blanks Tigers has struck out 26 batters while walking only nine and has a 1.17 earned run average. Pleasingly Cocky Known in the trade as "pleas ingly cocky," Pappas has been tabbed for stardom since he vault ed into the majors virtually direct from American Legion ball. Only four pitchers have won more big league games at his age and his shutout Monday night set a club record of 14 for a career. The Orioles backed his five-hit pitching with a salvo of four home runs that produced all their runs and dealt Phil Regan his fifth loss against two victories. Jim Gentile and Jerry Adair hit solo homers and Jackie Brandt and John Pow ell each slammed one with a man on base. The Orioles have won six of their last seven games during which Baltimore pitchers have al lowed a total of 11 runs and 33 hits. The White Sox nipped the Wash ington Senators, 5-4.

The loss was the fourth in a row for Cheney, Ihe league's early-season pitching sensation. A three-run homer by Earl Bat- tcy and solo homers by Bob Alli son and Harmon Killebrew paced the Twins' 10-hit attack. Camilo Pascual was tagged for five runs and seven hits in 6 1-3 innings but gained credit for his fifth win. Earl Wilson suffered his third Wagner Blasts Two Leon Wagner drove in all five Los Angeles runs with his 12th and 13th homers of the season but homers by Willie Kirkland and Tito Francona plus a two-run dou ble by Johnny Romano enabled Cleveland s Jack Kralick to win his second game. Kralick was kay ocd by Wagner's three-run ninth inning homer the 100th homer of his career and Gary Bell closed out the game. Drott pitched his first complete game since June 14. 1959, walking two. striking out seven and per mitting only two Pirates to ad vance to third. Johnny Temple, who ran his hitting streak to eight games, tripled in the first Hous ton run and a sacrifice fly by John Batcman delivered the oth er.
