A .463 pace since May 7 has brought the Cardinals back from their 3-l atari into a tie for fourth place ia the National league. Theft the best pace of any ?L, team over the five-week period" but it's been liko pulliftf teeth all the way. For one thir$, ih Cardin als starting pitchers aren't winning. Only tht erratic but surprisingly successful relief work of M'ris Martin, Billy Muffet and Phil Paine, S-2 combined, has saved the staff from buckling altogeth er. Anther One-Run Decieiom And. for another, the Card inals are next-toolast in scor ning runs and in hitting hom- ers. Yet the team stands 27-27 for the season with no less than 12 of the victories by one-run margins. There was more of the "heart-stopping" for Hutchin son Monday night when the Cardinals outscrambled the Cincinnati Redlegs, 6-5, in 11 innis. Cincinnati's Joe Nuxhall carried a 3-1 lead into the ninth but the Cardinals tied it on pinch-hitter Joe Cun ningham's two-run single. Then the Redbirds pushed over three runs in the top of the Hth for an apparently easy victory only to have the Redlegs rally for two in the last of the 11th and force Hutchinson to go to the bull pen for the fourth time of the night. o Eddie Kasko, whose error helped the Redlegs take a 3-1 lead in the sixth, doubled in the final two St. Louis runs in the 11th. Don BJasingame broke the 3-3 tie with a single. The three-run margin ap peared to be more than enough for Morris Marfln who did gain credit for his third win, but the ex-Brooklyn lefty never retired a batter in the 11th. Burgess singled and Gus Bell homered whereupon Hutchinson signalled for Jackson.

The two teams meet again tonight, while Vancouver opens at Portland, Phoenix plays Sacramento, and Spo kane visits San Diego. , Seattle's victory Monday night moved the Rainiers into sixth place by a few percent age points over Portland, al though they are still behind the Beavers by half a game.

Delany wound up a bril liant collegiate career at Berkeley Saturday by win ning the mile and the half mile events one of the great "doubles" in track and field history in the NCAA cham pionships. . The Irishman, who has re turned to his home, isn't sure he'll come back to this coun try again. But it is possible. But if he never returns, the fans around the track and field circuit won't forget him. He has rightly been called the "Silky Sullivan of the Milers," the "Come From Be hind Kid," etc. It's very easy to tie up De lany with horse racing. He has a choppy stride, with big ham-hands swinging wildly. His head bobs up and down at every step, just like a jockey. I've seen Delany in many races including his 1500 me ter triumph in the Olympic games at Melbourne, where he came steaming up the out side with his usual finishing kick, to win going away. Kid Gavilan, Bahama Vie Wednesday New York (UPI) Betting is at "even money" for what shapes up as the fight of the week between ex - welter weight champion Kid Gavalan and Yama Baham, 25, at the Miami Beach Auditorium Wednesday night. Their 10 -rounder will be televised nationally by ABC. Cuban Gavilan, 32, is still campaigning for another shot at the 147-pound crown. In two bouts this year he lost a decision to middleweight Ralph (Tiger) Jones but beat him in a return engagement. Bahama, from the island of Bimini, B. W. I., won three straight bouts this year on decisions over Amen Peck and Ray Sheppard and a, technical knockout over Clarence Rob inson. Rated Sixth Gavilan is rated sixth among contenders, Bahama is unranked. The Cuban 106-29-6 record includes 28 knockouts. Bahama's 48-8-2 includes 16 kayoes. ' Friday night's TV - radio (NBC) 10-rounder brings to gether heavyweights Mike De John and Bob Baker at Syra cuse, N. Y. Each big fellow was formerly a ranking con tender. DeJohn of Syracuse, 26, is favored at 7-5 because of his punch. Baker, 31, hasn't fought this year. In DeJohn's one start in 1958, he lost a split decision to seventh ranked Nino Valdes. DeJohn's 34-4-1 record in cludes 25 knockouts; Baker's 50-11-1 includes 19. The week's boxing schedule includes: Tuesday Richmond, Calif. Willie Vaughn vs.. Hank Casey. San Bernardino, Calif.

Main St., 2nd Floor PHONE: SPring 3-5301 But the two races he won in the NCAA championships on the University of Califor nia track will remain indeli bly in my mind as long as I live. First-Effort His first effort was the mile race where he was supposed to have a tough time with Don Bowden, the Californian who has been clocked in 3:57.7. Bowden took the lead in a bully, 14-man field, with Delany running as far back as 10th place at times, at least 30 yards behind the leader. The California lad led for the first three quarters, with Delany making no apparent effort to narrow the gap. With 400 yards still to go Ron still was mired in the pack, far back. Then, as if getting new power from some place, he started to turn on the heat with 300 yards to go. At that time Jim Grelle of Oregon and Gail Hodgson- of Okla home were overtaking Bow den. But Delany came rush ing down the outside, the roar of the crowd urging him on. He caught Grelle and Hodgson heading into the home stretch and won by 10 yards. His time of 4:03.5 was a new NCAA meet record. Davis Sets Record ' Right after that the world mark in the 440 was smashed by Glen Davis of Ohio State, but the hand he received was nothing compared with what Delany got after winning the half mile an hour later. There were nine running in this, vent and for more than half the distance, Delany ran in last place.' With 200 yards to go he called on that reserve power again, just as the announcer yelled: "And here comes Delany." The pace was fast- for a man who had just run a mile, but Ron was just that much better than the competition. Once again he collared his foes at the head of the stretch. Then his superior condition ing and stronger heart told the tale. He won again. When he walked off the track after trotting around to "cool out," he was given an ovation by the 16,000 fans that he'll have to remember the rest of his days, too. It lasted for a full three minutes and it kept growing .and growing until it became a mighty roar. Finally, with a bashful grin, ' Delany turned to the crowd and waved a fond fare well as he picked up his sweat suit and jogged off the field a 100 per cent success in the final collegiate meet of a great career.
