By FRED DOWN United Press International There's no time like the present if the Yankees want to prove they're still alive and kickin'. They'll have Bill Skowron, their best hitter so far this season, back in the lineup when they open a four-game series with the Baltimore Orioles tonight. And they're sending World Series hero Bob Turley to the mound to try to pitch them out of last place But their work is cut out for them because manager Paul Richards is countering with flutterball pitcher Hoyt Wilhelm, .who pitched a no- hitter against the Yankees last season and beat them, 3-2, on April 26. Wilhelm, whose dancing knuckleballs have been the despair of American league hitters, has a perfect 5-0 record this year. Depend on Indians ; The Yankees need more than a victory of their own to move out of the cellar. The Cleveland Indians must also beat the Detoit Tigers who knocked the Yankees into last place with a 13-6 walloping on Wednesday and have won 11 of 16 games since Jimmy Dykes succeeded Bill Norman. The Yankees were idle along with most other teams Thursday but the Pittsburgh Pirates, Philadelphia Phillies and Boston Red Sox all used the day "to get well." The Pirates, smarting under criticism by Manager Danny Murtaugh, beat the St. Louis Cardinals 7-2, the Phillies snapped an eight-game losing streak with a 3-0 decision over the Chica'go Cubs and the Red Sox scored their second win in nine games when they downed the Athletics, 5-0. Haddix Stops Cards Harvey Haddix struck out seven and yielded 10 hits as he raised his record against his ex-Cardinal teammates to 9-4 and his season-mark to 3-2. The Pirates routed Lindy Mc- Daniel with three runs in the first inning and went on to pile up 12 hits, including three each by Bill Virdon and Don Hoak. Gino Cimoli, Gene Greene and Chick King had I two hits each for St. Louis. Piikan frtmA' 4necai4 nni". hitter to win his first game of the season for the last place Phillies who broke a scoreless tie in the single, George Anderson's double, a sacrifice fly, an infield hit and another sacrifice fly pro duced the runs. Gomez, who walked one and struck out three, retired the last 13 Cubs in order. . Dick Gernert, Jackie Jen sen and Jim Busby hit homers that accounted for all the Red Sox' runs. Tom Brewer was well on his way to a Shutout when he left the game with a sore pitching hand in the eighth inning and Lea Kiely finished up. Brewer was hit on the right hand by a liner off Ray Boone's bat. Ned Garver suffered his second setback for Kansas City.

NY Yanks Seem to Have Traded Away Better Club Than They Put on Field By FRED DOWN TJniied Press International New York - (UPD - Have the Yankees already traded away a better team than they can put on the field? The answer undoubtedly is "yes" and helps to explain why General Manager George Weiss is in a tough spot when he seeks a possible deal to cure the world champions' last place blues. Weiss is over a barrel and rival clubs natur ally are sky-rocketing the value of players he wants.. It is not . a new spot for Weiss "and he is among the first to admit the value of players he has traded to other clubs. In fact, it's part of the Weiss come-on. "When you deal with us you get quality talent in return for what you give us," is the way the argu ment goes. It s true too. Just look at the team of ex-Yankees that could be fielded: Catcher Sher- powered outboard combinations leave all others years behind!

Year-To-Year That's at least as good, and very probably a better team than the one Casey Stengel fielded on Wednesday - the day the Yankees plummeted into the American League cel lar for the first time in 19 years. That team was com posed of catcher John Blanch ard, first-b a s e m a n Marv Thorneberry, second-baseman Gil McDouglad, shortstop Tony Kubek, third-baseman Jerry Lumpe and outfielders Norm Siebern, Mickey Mantle and Yogi Berra. How can this . be unless Weiss has been getting hood winked in deals with the teams he's been beating over the last 10 years? The answer as that Weiss has been dealing to perpetuate the Yankee dynasty on a year-to-year basis and so has been forced to surrender top-notch talent that in some cases is still around long after the one key player Weiss dealt for to win one pennant is gone. An other reason is that Casey Stengel has accented defen sive and dual-position talent so consistently that he now finds himself with a primarily -defensive team.- a bit lack ing in muscle. Antonelli Will Face Drysdale Los Angeles (UPD San Francisco's Johnny Antonelli (5-2) will attempt to top the revamped Los Angeles Dod gers tonight at the Coliseum. The Dodgers have bested the Giants in live of seven contests so far this season. Don Drysdale, who has a 3-4 record on the year a habit of beating the Giants, will coun ter on the mound for the Dodgers. Drysdale beat the Giants earlier in the season, 2-1, and he ha san 11-6 lifetime record against? Horace Stoneham's stalwarts. Antoneli owns a decision over the Dodgers in his only appearance against them this season.

Preliminary events got under way at 3 p.m. today with final events starting at 1 p.m. Saturday. Coach Bill Bowerman's Northern division champions brought an 18-man squad here and with top performances from every man the Webfoots could pull an upset. Steve Anderson, the versa tile youth from Tacoma, was Oregon's biggest question mark. Anderson missed the ND meet in Eugene last week end because of illness and had not regained top form in workouts this week. Oregon tied with Stanford for fourth place last season at the PCC meet in Berkeley with Southern Cal, California and UCLA finishing ahead in that order. Oregon State has two pos sible first place winners in broad jumper Darrell Horn and high jumper Wayne Moss. mittee to bring another major league team to that city to replace the departed Giants' and Dodgers' franchises, said he was "elated." .
