SF Has Eye
On Big Tilt
Against LA
Br ALEX KAHN
Los Angeles (DPD The San
Francisco Giants, their league
lead cut to two games, tried
to forget Sunday's debacle
against the Los Angeles Dodg
ers and instead concentrated
on the third big game of the
series tonight.
Los Angeles capitalized two
Giant errors in the bottom of
the ninth to push over two
unearned runs and gain a 7-6
victory. The Giants won the
Friday series opener, 5-0.
Although rookie first base
man Willie McCovey commit
ted two of the three San Fran
cisco bobbles in the Sunday
game, manager Bill Rigney
refused to blame him for the
loss.
Might Rest McCovey
At the same time, he indi
cated McCovey might be giv
en a rest tonight with Orlan
do Cepeda taking over his
regular spot at first.
Rigney said that with south
paw Sandy Koufax, 7-4, pitch
ing for the Dodgers, he want
ed as many righthanded bat
ters as possible and that
might be his reason for bench
ing McCovey, not his fielding
bobbles.
The Giants announced they
would pitch Jack Sanford,
12-10, and were hopeful the
righthander could go the
route because they used five
pitchers Sunday in a futile
attempt to pull the game from
the fire.
Tonight's game is for -the
benefit of the Kiwanis Crip
pled Children's fun and crowd
of better than 60,000 was expected.

United Press International

jey combined to limit the Bes

er. Carl Greene scattered six
hits while pitching Sacramen

Chicago - (CPS - The third
Pan American Games, which
the United States considered
a warmup for the 1960 Olym
pics in Rome, was turning
out to be such a romp today
that even the U.S. coaches ad
mitted they were not proving
much of a testing ground.
The sister Western Hemis
phere nations were not fur
nishing much opposition.
None of the coaches would
be quoted. But they all point
ed to the results of the first
three days of competition.
It showed that of the first
21 championships decided,
the U.S. won 18 and was ex
pected to add a minimum of
six of the nine on today's
gchedule. The other three

Those go-go White Sox can
go ahead and print their
World Series tickets but
they'd better leave a blank
space for the name of their
opponents because it could
easily be the supposedly long
gone Pirates.
The inspired White Sox
really did a job on the Indians
in all but wrapping up their
first American League pen
nant since 1919.
Al Lopez' speedy crew took
a doubleheader from the Tribe
Sunday, 6-3 and 9-4, before
66,586 at Cleveland to sweep
a four - game "show down
series" and lengthen their
lead to 5Vfe games - longest
of the season.
The White Sox never had
it so good. If they win only
13 of their remaining 25
games, the second-place In
dians still would have to win
19 of their last 24 to overtake
them.
The Pirates aren't in such
good shape, of course, but they
aren't exactly complaining.
They made it nine out of their
last 10 by sweeping a twin
bill from the Phillies, 2-1 and
7-6 in 10 innings, with little
Roy Face fashioning his 17th
victory of the season without
a defeat in the nightcap.
Pirates Climb
By taking two from the
Phils, the Pirates climbed to
within four games of the first
place Giants who dropped a
7-6 decision to the Dodgers.
The Cubs beat the Braves,
6-2, and the Reds defeated the
Cardinals, 6-4.
Among the "also rans" in
the AL, the Tigers took over
third place with a 4-0 victory
Sal Taormina got three of the
Giants' hits, including a pair
of doubles. Jack Dittmer
homered for the Sacs. It was
Greene's 13 th win against 12
losses.

Gene Littler
Miller Winner
Milwaukee (UPD Gene Lit
tler, of Singing Hills, Calif.,
had his "furniture money" to
day after winning the $5,300
first prize in the $35,000 Mil
ler Open golf tournament. '
Littler, a five-year profes
sional veteran at the age of
29, came through with a
clutch birdie on the 18th hole
Sunday to break a tie with
PGA c".ampion Bob Rosburg,
Palo Alto, Calif. He came
home with a 15 under par to
tal of 265 for 72 holes.
Second place wound up in
a three-way tie between Ros
burg, Bo Wininger, Odessa,
Tex., and Ted Kroll, Sarasota,
Fla.-all at 266.
Mflinger Score
Dn Pan American
were wide open. But the U.S.
entries were no worse than co
favorites. Sunday, led by Dave Ed
strom, a 21-year-old senior at
the University of Oregon who
won the decathlon champion
ship, the U.S. swept all eight
gold medals which were de
cided. In winning four of
them, the United States set
Pan American records.
Sets Record
Edstrom, in winning the
gruelling two-day decathlon,
set one of them, scoring 7,254
points as he won or tied for
first in eight of the ten events
which comprise the title.
The others were made by
Bill Dellinger, Oxnard,:alif.,
who won the 5,000-meter run
over the Athletics; the Sena
tors topped the Yankees, 3-1,
and the Red Sox blanked the
Orioles, 3-0.
The White Sox won their
opener from the Indians with
a five-run sixth-inning rally
that Early Wynn launched
with a home run. Wynn, who
needed Gerry Staley's help in
the eighth, won his 17th of
the season and 266th of his
career, tying him with Bob
Feller and Eppa Rixey for
total major league victories.
Barry Latman won his
eighth game in the nightcap
although he gave way to Turk
Lown in the sixth. Before de
parting, Latman yielded Cola
vito's 39th homer with two on
and Woodie Held's 26th homer
with the bases empty.
Face Gets Lucky
Face, who now has won 22
straight over two seasons, got
away a bit lucky in Pitts
burgh's second game win over
Philadelphia. Ed Bouchee
homered off Face in the top
of the 10th to put the Phils
ahead, 6-5, but Dick Stuart
doubled home two runs off
Dick Farrell in the bottom of
the 10th. Stuart also hit a
pinch homer, his 21st, in the
ninth.
Bob Skinner's fourth hit of
the game, a two-out single in
the ninth, won the opener for
the Pirates. Lefty Harvey
Haddix gave up only six hits,
including Gene Freese's 19th
homer, in notching his 11th
triumph.
An error by third baseman
Jackie Brandt paved the way
for two unearned runs in the
ninth that gave the Dodgers
their victory over the Giants.
Wally Moon followed with a
triple to tie the score at 6-6
and after Sam Jones relieved
loser Mike McCormick, the
Dodgers filled the bases on
two walks. Willie McCovey
then let in the winning run
when he fumbled Norm Lark
er's grounder.
The Cubs won their game
from the Braves with a five
run rally in the eighth at the
expense of loser Carlton Wil-
ley. Key blows in the rally
were Jim Marshall's double
which tied the score at 2-2
and Irv Noren's two - run
single.
Kasko Aids Reds
Ex-Cardinal Eddie Kasko
drove in three runs to help
Cincinnati snap a four-game
St. Louis winning streak. Jay
Hook hurled a seven-hitter for
his fourth win,
Over in the American
league, Don Mossi of Detroit
posted his 12th victory when
he held Kansas City to three
hits and also belted his first
major league homer,
Russ Kemmerer and Tex
Clevenger combined in a five-
hit, pitching effort that led
