Yankees Gain
Ground In AL
Pennant Race
By United' Press International
Poor Gil Hodges.
If he thought the New York
Mots were the worst team in base
ball he must be beginning to won
der about the woebegone Wash
ington Senators. .
They have lost eight out of nine
since Hodges officially took over
as their manager on May 23.
And the way they have lost
some of those games would bring
tears to the eyes of a hobbyhorse.
Gil watched them lose their first
game under him on a cheap hom
er. They dropped another one on
a muffled infield pop-up and Fri
day night they went down to de
feat again on a grand slam homer
by the rival pitcher.
Orlando Pena was the fellow
who did it, clouting his first ma
jor league home run during a six
run rally and pitching a five-hitter
for good measure in leading the
Kansas City A s to a 8-3 victory
over the Senators.
Six Homers Hit
Pena, who had lost his last five
games, struck out seven and did
not walk a batter en route to his
fifth victory. His fifth inning hom
er was one of six hit during the
game.
Ed Charles and George Alusik
also connected for KC while Larry
Osborne, Don Lock and Jim King
each homered for Washington. Don
Rudolph was charged with his
seventh defeat In 10 decisions.
Elsewhere in the American
League, the New York Yankees
for first place by blanking the
Cleveland Indians 4 0; the Los An
geles Angels downed the Balti
more Orioles 7-4. the Detroit Ti
gers ended the Minnesota Twins'
10-gamo winning streak 31, and
tho Chicago White Sox shut out
the Boston Red Sox 6-0.
In the National League, the St.
Louis Cardinals shaded the San
Francisco Giunts 6-5. the Pitts
burgh Pirates defeated the New
York Mets 2-0, tho Chicago Cubs
edged the Philadelphia Phillies
2-1, the Houston Colts beat the
Milwaukee Braves 32, and the
Cincinnati Reds downed the tas
Angeles Dodgers 7-4.
Whitey rord set down the In
dians un three hits for his sixth
victory as Tom Trcsh and F.lston
Howard each hit two-run homers
for the Yankees. Roth blows came
off Jim Grant, who lost his fifth
game against three victories.
Oilnikl Wins Third
F,x relicver Don Osinski scored
his third victory of the season and
his first as a starter in the An
gels' win over Ihe Orioles, who
dropped their third in a row.
Rookie Charley Dees led ott the
fifth inning with a homer otf los
er Milt I'apims and the Angels
clinched Ihe outcome with two
more runs in Ihe same frame for
a 7 2 lead. The loss was Pappas
first alter four wins.
Jim Bunning ended the major
leagues' longest winning streak
by limiting the Twins to seven
hits as he recorded his third tri
umph for Ihe Tigers. Gus Trian
dos' single Willi the liases full was
the key blow o(t loser Jim Perry
during a three-run rally by the
Tigers In the fourth. Korl Bat
tey's 10th homer in the ninth de
prived Dunning of a shutout.
Johnny Huzhardt checked Ihe
Red Sox on three hits while the
White Sox pounded loser Gene
Conley for five runs during the
first ihree innings. Charley Max
well clipped Conley for a triple
and a single, scoring twice and
driving in one run. Nellie Fox and
Pete Ward also had two hits
apiece, lue victory was Buz
hordt's filth compared with two
losses,

'Spilled Oil' Triggers Dispute

INDIANAPOLIS (UIM)-One of
the biggest rhubarbs in the his
tory of the classic 500-mile Speed

winner Parnelli Jones resting on
his laurels and critic Eddie Sachs
nursing a sore chin.
Never before was there a fast
er race and not in the memory
of veteran Speedway roilhirds had
the brickyard ever been hit with
such controversy over the out
come. Both Sachs, who tangled with
Jones in a fist fight at a luncheon
Friday, and Roger McCluskey,
who complained because Ihe win

race, failed to show up at Thurs-

day night's victory banquet.
Jimmy Clark, the flying Scots
man who drove his Lotus-Ford to
a second-place finish only 34 sec
onds behind Jones, did show up
at the banquet. He watched Jones
and his crew carry off a record
jackpot of nearly $150,000.
Nearly half a million dollars
was shelled out to pay off driv
ers. Clark, unanimous choice for
"rookie of Ihe year" honors, be
came (lie first foreigner to win
the award.
The storm over the Speedway
started brewing soon after Jones
pulled into the winner's circle.
Sachs, who crossed the finish
line in 17th place, accused dark
officials of being "talked out of"
giving Jones Ihe black flag for
spilling oil.
A vapor of smoke trailed the
winner's exhaust late in the rare.
Sachs said it was "the first time
in Speedway history that a 500
mile race has a winner that
doesn't deserve it." He said Jones
should have been ousted from the
race when oil leaked from his
car and made Ihe track danger
ously slippery.
McCluskey, who spun off the
course on Jones' final lap when
he had third place clinched, said
Jones "didn't have any more busi
ness out on that race track than
the man in the moon "
Other Indianapolis veterans
complained that Jones had picked
up precious seconds on Clark un
der the yellow flag, when drivers
are supposed to slow down and
maintain their positions.

To Retain Crown
LAS VEGAS, Nev. (UPI)
Champion Harold Johnson, fa-
fored at 5-1 because of his skill
and punch, defends his 175-pound
crown in this gambling metropo
lis tonight against nimble' Willie
Pastrano in Nevada s first world
light heavyweight title fight.
Veteran Johnson of Philadelphia
seeks his 20th consecutive vic
tory and is an "even money" bet
to score a knockout although
speedy Pastrano of Miami Beach
never has been belted off his feet.
Dancin's Willie was stopped once,
however, on face cuts. 1
Their scheduled indoor 15-round-
er at Las Vegas modernistic con
vention center will be televised
nationally to home by ABC.
A comparatively small crowd of
only 4,000 is expected. The ticket
sale for tonights fight seems to
have been handicapped by a con
flicting sale of ducats of the
Sonny Liston-Floyd Patterson re
turn heavyweight title bout in the
same convention center on July
22.
Champion Liston will be at the
ringside tonight to watch 34-year-
old Johnson in his attempt to win
so impressively over 27-year-old
Pastrano that Johnson can chal
lenge the Liston-Pattcrson winner
to a battle of champions.
Johnson, seeking his 71st victory
and 33rd knockout in 79 bouts, is
a prohibitive favorite because of
cleverness and power.
Pastrano is a speedy master of
evasion and a skilled left jabber
but he is only a comparatively
light puncher. He registered only
13 knockouts while winning 58 of
his 77 bouts. He lost 11 and had
eight draws.
Johnson knocked out Jesse Bow
drv in the ninth round of their
fight for the vacant World Boxing
Association (WBA) title Feb. 7,
1961.
In his title career, Johnson de
fended the WBA crown success
fully against Von Clay and Eddie
Cotton; and then won the undis
puted vacant world championship
by outpointing Doug Jones of New
York, May 12, 1962. in his only
defense of Ihe undisputed title, he
outpointed Gustav Scholi.

In tonight's opener at Ashland
