t Ron VanderECelen Due For Baptism As Pro Grid Star By United Prsi International Ron VanderKelen, the Minne sota Vikings' widely-heralded rookie quarterback, will receive his National Football League "baptism" in an exhibition game against the Philadelphia Eagles Saturday at Hershey, Pa. "It's Vandy's game," head coach Norm Van Brocklin said . Monday in announcing he will start the former Wisconsin star, who has watched the Vikings' first three pre-season contests , from the bench. ' Van Brocklin also announced the purchase of two defensive .tackles Billy Wilson and rprge Holtz from the St. Lou Cardinals. The newcomers ' brought the club roster to 54, so the Vikings will have to cut 11 - players today to reach the 43 ' man limit. Buddy Parker, the Pittsburgh Steelers' head coach, had no such problem, for his roster al ready was pared to 43 players. Parker, though, remained in an unhappy mood because of the Steelers' 17-14 loss to the Balti more Colts last Saturday. "I'm really disgusted," he said. r "Our o f i e n s e wasn't clicking (against the Colts) and the de , fense was fooled on simple draw plays." Alston Sees Lack Of Hits As Dodgers' Main Problem By JOHN DART LOS ANGELES (UPI) Lack of hitting, the thing that beat the Dodgers late last fall, raised its ugly head again Monday night in a familiar haunt Dodger Sta dium. "Ordinarily, we have a couple of guys hitting," Dodger mana ger Walter Alston said after a 3-1 defeat to the Cincinnati Reds Monday, "but now nobody's hit ting." Los Angeles reached Cincinnati's Jim O'Toole for just five hits and one run. Since the Dodgers strung seven straight victories together they have lost five of the next six games. In all six contests at Dodger Sstadium they have failed to get more than two runs. Alston acknowledged that "this club is not going to score a lot of runs," but added that, good pitching is being wasted. Dodger starter Don Drysdale was handed his 15th loss against 16 wins Monday night although he allowed but seven hits and three runs in the eight innings he worked. The Dodgers have two more games with the Reds. Alston was undecided whether to start rookie Dick Calmus 2-1, or Pete Richert, 1-1, tonight against Bob Purkey, 6-8. On Wednesday, the probable pitchers are Johnny Podres for the Dodgers and fireballing Jim Maloney for the Reds. Despite the immediate problem of beating the Reds, however, Alston and the Dodgers are think ing about the impending four game visit of the San Francisco Giants. Alston said he has hopes Hambiltonian Favorite's Nod Goes To Speedy DU QUOIN, III (UPI)-Every-body's betting on the bay a big one named Speedy Scot to trot home the winner in Wednes day's Hambletonian and his toughest competition may come from "sick bay."

Leading darkhorse contender B. F. Coaltown, the "Buckeye Bul let" out of Columbus, Ohio, in vading this Southern Illinois coal country is still getting 15-minute doses twice a day of an oxygen antibiotics mixture to clear up a "low grade" virus infection in his throat. Veteran Frank Ervin, driver trainer of Cherry Honey, believes she can give the favorite "all the trouble he wants" if she is in peak condition, but doubts if she will be. "I'll race her one heat, and if she's not all right then I'll scratch her," said E r vin. "He (Speedy Scot) may speed by some other horses, but he'll have to inch by this one if she's ready."

The Dodger skipper said his to tation for the Giant series would be Sandy Koufax, Drysdale, Bob Miller or Calmus, then Podres for the finale. Los Angeles has 33 games re mainingthree more with the second-place Cardinals, seven more with the third-place Giants and another seven with the tough Philadelphia Phillies, who are only seven games behind the Dodgers and in fourth place. The blow that shaved the Dodg er league lead to 5V4 games Mon day night was a two-run home run by Gordy Coleman following Vada Pinson's single in the fourth inning. The Dodgers, before a crowd of 36,694, showed signs of fighting back fiercely in the bottom of the fourth. Southpaw O'Toole, facing a line up loaded with righthander! bat ters, retired the first 10 men to face him. But the lineup's only lefthanded batter, Willie 'Davis, lined a hit to left center and turned it into a double with his speed. Tommy Davis drove him in' with a single. Frank Howard then sent Pinson to the warning track in dead center field nearly 400 feet away for the second out. The Dodgers went quietly after that. O'Toole yielded only three more singles and wound up with his 16th season win. Tommy Har per's speed afoot accounted for the third Cincinnati run.. Harper scored from first on Pinson's sin gle as rightfielder Howard threw to Gilliam at second base and Gilliam's hurried relay to the plate was off the mark. j Su your Rambler dealer-a good man to do In The Majors Major Ltagu Standings By( United Press International American League W.

Harvard Ph. 673-7571 Dodgers Drop 3-1 Decision To Help Redbirds' Cause By MARTIN LADER UPI Sports Writer If Stan Musial is as sharp with his words as he is with his bat, there's another dark cloud hang ing over Los Angeles. The Dodgers, who apparently had wrapped up the National League pennant with a seven game win streak last week, con tinue to be their own worst ene mies as the race heads for the treacherous September stretch. Musial promised Monday after his St. Louis Cardinals had whipped the San Francisco Gi ants, 6-3, that "we've still got a chance to overtake them." The Dodgers then added life to the prophecy by dropping a 3-1 decision to the Cincinnati Reds Monday night, allowing the Cards to creep within 5 'A games of the league lead. Los Angeles now has lost four of five games in its home park following the impressive streak, and 1962 isn't so far behind that the players don't remember. The Milwaukee Braves slugged the Houston Colts. 11-7. in Mon day's only other National League contest. American League action was limited to a twi-night doublehead er at Washington between the Minnesota Twins and the Sena tors. Minnesota lost a chance to gain a firmer hold on second Place by dropping the nightcap, 7-3, after capturing the first game, 5-2. O'Toole Is Winner Jim O'Toole, a loser in eight of his last 10 decisions, was the messenger of ill tidings for the Dodgers. The husky left-hander retired the first 10 men he faced and limited Los Angeles to five hits for the game to gain his 16th triumph against 11 losses. Gordy Coleman provided the major, share of the batting sup port with his ninth home run of the year following a single by Frank Robinson in the fourth in ning. The Reds picked up their final run in the eighth when Tommy Harper scored from first base on a Vada Pinson sin gle and a poor relay home by Junior Gilliam. The lone Dodger score came in the fourth when Tommy Davis singled home Willie Davis, who had walked, Don Drysdale (16 15) was the losing pitcher. The Cardinals pushed across three runa in the ninth inning to snap a y. two-game losing slump and foil Juan Marichal's bid for his 20th victory.

Eddie Mathews, Don Dillard and Hank Aaron all hit homers for the Braves to more than offset an inside-the-park circuit by Houston's John Bateman. Aar on thus followed Orlando Cepeda and Willie McCovey of the Gi ants with a home run in each of the National League parks this season. Relief pitcher Ron Piche gained his first triumph of the year. Resounding back-to-back hom ers by Harmon Killebrew and Bob Allison sparked the second place Twins to their opening game victory. Dick Stigman, with late-inning relief from Bill Dailey, evened his record at 11-11. Bui the Twins' edge over Chicago was narrowed to a half-game again when the Senators capital ized on Dick Phillips' homer and erratic Minnesota pitching to capture the nightcap.
