Maryland produced the big sur prise of Friday's round by topping the field of 49 schools with 13 qualifiers, including its mile relay team. Villanova and Manhattan shared the runner-up spot, each placing nine men and a relay team. But not even Maryland coach Uim Kehoe was confident his team would come out ahead of powerful Villanova. Best times in Friday's track ev ents were turned in by Gerald Ashworth of Dartmouth and Bob Mattis of Manhattan in the 100 yard dash 9.8, Mattis in the 220 (21.5), Kubie Brown and Bob Bag ley of Morgan State and Don Webster of Villanova in the 440 (48.2), Frank Tomeo of Fordham in the 880 (1:52), Bill Flippen of Yale and Larry Livers of Villa nova in the 120-yard high hurdles (14.5) and Chris Stauffcr of Mary land in the 440-yard high hurdles (53.1). his . i Ov kurjfi. rS J n The Bulletin, Saturday, Salt Lake City suffers 16th consecutive loss By Ron Supinskl UPI Staff Writer A $125,000 bonus pitcher, a for mer American Leaguer and a guy named Smith today were the pitching toasts of the Pacific Coast League. And the goat? None other than sockless Salt Lake City which suf fered its 16th loss in a row to come within one defeat of tying the PCL record for consecutive losses, set by Sacramento in 1925. Righthander Pete Smith set down Salt Lake with only two hits. The 23-ycar-old pitcher from Na tick, Mass., fanned seven and walked two to bring his record to 54. Stan Johnson doubled to score Smith with Seattle's run in the sixth inning. Smith had walked and advanced to second during a successful rundown of a Seattle player who was picked off second, In other games Lew Krausse of Portland, signed by the Kan sas City Athletics for an estimat ed $125,000, pitched a six-hitter in beating Spokane 9-2 and Dallas Ft. Worth's Lee Stange, who had a 4-3 record with the Minnesota Twins last season, shut out Ha waii 4-0 on five hits. Rain forced postponement of the San Diego at Oklahoma City game. Outfielder Ken Harrelson of Portland socked a homer, double and two singles to drive in three runs. Portland's Ron Debus also collected four hits, including a triple and double. Gene Wallace hit a bases empty homer for Spo kane in the ninth. Krausse, who evened his record at 4-4, struck out six and walked three in going the full route. Phil Ortega (2-4) was the starter and loser for Spokane. He was re moved in the fourth inning when Debus singled off his leg. Stange, a righthander, limited Hawaii to five hits in winning his fourth game against a single loss. Infielder Ray Bellino provided the plate punch for Dallas-Ft Worth. He doubled home three runs in the fourth. Dallas-Ft. Worth infielder Cesar Tovar singled in the first inning to stretch his consecutive game hitting streak to 22. The victory gave the Texans a half-game edge over second-place San Diego in Better-than-par shooters to be '500' survivors INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) Par was no problem for contestants In the $55,000 "500" Open gou tournament today, and it ap peared that only players who shot par or better for 36 holes will survive for the last two rounds. In Friday's first round 74 pros and one amateur were par or bet ter. After today's tour, the field will be trimmed to the low 75 pros and ties for the final two rounds. Fred Hawkins, a non-winner on the tournament trail since 1956, set the early pace, coming in with a 64, seven strokes under regula tion for the course Mid two swings under his closest competitor. John Carmichacl, a 23-year-old from Martinsville, Ind., made one of the best runs of the round to : tie Hawkins, but could do no bet ! tcr than par on the final five ! holes and wound up with a sec- I ond place 66. USSERY WINS THREE NEW YORK (LTD Bobby i Ussery, the leading rider at Aque- ', duct, booted home three more ' winners Friday. He scored on Stygian Star $M.20i, Whittier i i $6.00) and Casing ($5.30). I jl 4 Willi f HIDDEN BALL PITCH Daughter of Gerald Sporalsky iiiiil mmm June 1, 1963 the Southern Division. Hawaii's Fred Newman (2-5) was the loser. Denver flexed its muscles with an 18-3 romp over Yakima of the Northwest League in an exhibi tion battle. Former Yakima play er Ethan Blackaby paced the winners' 20-hit attack with a hom er and a pair of singles. Hairy-chested men, big tobacco chewers a thing of the past 1 By Oscar Fraley UPI Staff Writer . NEW YORK (UPD-Time was when a major league ball player who wore eyeglasses was as rare as a set of dry tonsils at a brew er's convention but not any more. The old rough and tumble crowd of the hairy chest and "chaw" had as much regard for the bespectacled player as it did for umpires. The umps were the only ones supposed to wear them. Nobody will ever know how many potentially great players were lost in the process. Kids with specs stuck them in their pocket to keep from getting picked last or ignored completely when it came time to choose up sides. Thus they wound up play ing an out-of-focus game to sat isfy prejudice. But those days are gone for ever, according to August Nelson of the Better Vision Institute, and the facts bear him out. Acceptance of players who wear glasses has been gradual through the years. Part of this is due to the fact that a better educated generation has taken over. But so intense, too, is scouting for young players with talent that they'll sign a guy who needs plate glass windows if he can find the plate or hit the ball. Ryne Duren actually found his faulty vision an asset when he was the big relief man for the New York Yankees. Duren was one of the plate glass breed and he had to look hard to see the batter. Thus, when he cut loose his fast one in their general di rection, nobody was taking a toe hold against him just in case the pitch was errant. "Specs" Toporcer earned his nickname because he wore glasses in becoming a second baseman for the Cardinals. Eye glasses kept him on the scene for years despite deteriorating vision before he finally lost his sight. Phil Linz, the infield handyman of the Yankees, first was fitted for glasses during his rookie year at Kearney, Neb.

Agent A. M. DICKENS P.O. Box 1228 Ph. 332-3829 Don't tell Hodges about Mets' woes 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 "Randy Gumpert, the manager, was hitting ground balls at me and I wasn't seeing them very well," he explained. "Then in night games I had trouble seeing pitches." An eye man found a slight vision defect. Once litted with glasses, Linz was on his way up to the big club. Back in 1960, Frank Howard of the Dodgers was hitting over ,400 when he was ordered by the front office to take an eye examina tion. The reason was that he was staggering around In the outfield under fly balls. His difficulty was myopia. He could see objects close by but not at a distance. Another outfielder with the same problem was Leon Wagner of the Los Angeles Angels. He had the same defensive trouble while maintaining a lusty batting average. A pitcher such as Ken Mac- Konzie of the Mets wouldn't think twice about having a sore arm treated. And he didn't think twice, cither, when he found he needed glasses 15 years ago. "I wore glasses playing hockey as well as baseball at Yale," he says. "People ask me if I'm not afraid of being hit by a batted ball. The answer is that glasses give me normal vision and help me avoid such accidents." Phillies owner Bob Carpenter, a member of the board of the University of Delaware, heard there about optical tests to meas ure how fast a hitter's eye con tracts when a fast ball is thrown to him. The test was given to the Rochester team and Carpenter said it "was terrific in spotting the good hitters." Now, some fans might suggest, it's time to use it on the Phillies. Glasses there might well be the necessary answer. REACHES TENNIS FINALS SURBITON, England (UPI) Darlene Hard of Los Angeles, the No. 1 United States player who plans to quit the game after the Wimbledon championships, meets Deidre Catt of England today in the women's singles final of the Surrey lawn tennis championships. PEEK-A-BOO STYLE Lives at 528 E. Franklin 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 9-3 victory over the Senators. Six Homers Hit Pcna, 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 I game. Ed Charles and George AJusik 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 climbed into a percentage tie 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-game winning streak 3-1, and the Chicago White Sox shut out the Boston Red Sox 6-0. In the National League, the St. Louis Cardinals shaded the San Francisco Giants 6-5, the Pitts burgh Pirates defeated the New York Mets 2-0, the Chicago Cubs edged the Philadelphia Phillies 2-1. the Houston Colts beat the Milwaukee Rraves 3-2, and the Cincinnati Reds downed the Los Angeles Dodgers 7-4. Whitey Ford set down the In dians on three hits for his sixth victory as Tom Tresh and Elston Howard each hit two-run homers for the Yankees. Both blows came off Jim Grant, who lost his fifth game against three victories. Ex-reliever Dan Osinski scored his third victory of the season and his first as a starter in the An gels' win over the Orioles, who dropped their third in a row. Rookie Charley Dees led off the fifth inning with a homer off los er Milt Pappas and the Angels clinched the outcome with two more runs in the same frame for a 7-2 lead. The loss was Pappas' first after four wins.

In the National League, the Elks put together an all-around team effort to whip the Eagles 10-5 at Marshall Field. Gary Wyatt pitched a five hit ter for the win. All five hits off of him however were collected by two individuals on the Eagles team. Karry Thalhofer, the Eagles' tosser, got three hits for four times at bat, while Steve Bjorvik went two for three. One of Bjor vik's was a double. Arlie Seems led the victors when he went four for four. Over at Harmon Field, the Brandis Little Leaguers put on a tremendous blast in a giant fourth inning to run roughshod over the Moose, 8-2. Ron Storey went the distance on the hill for the victors, and limited the Moose to only two hits. The Moose's Bruce Westfall got both of them, rapping sin gles in the first and fourth inn ings. In that giant Brandis fourth frame, Chris Welle, Ron Storey, Jim Barnett and Bob Gotchy got single base hits off of Burl Flan ery, Moose tosser. Moose batters got their two tal lies in the fourth Inning, largely on the strength of a triplo by Maurice Dofiglas. Burl Flanery went the distance for the losers and was credited with the loss. An explosion in their half of the fifth inning, allowed Healy's Lit tle Leaguers to pick up five runs, enough for a 5-4 margin over the VFW in the Cascade League. DENVER j v "J ID FOLLOW THE PALL Just moved from Mr. Angel Time 1 Three Healy's men got doubles 1 in that frame. They were Doug Barackmun, Dwayno Holioway land Mike McCool.
