Rathmann Wins Indianapolis Race
After Ward Lets
By ED SAINSBURY
United tress International
Indianapolis, Ind. - IUP1) -Roser
Ward let up on the
throttle trying to get started
from the pits, and thus gave
up victory in the annual bOO
mile Speedway race to a three
time runner-up Jim Rath
mann. rtathmann, who finished
second in 1952, 1857 and
1959, rolled home in record
speed, 138.767 miles per hour,
betore more than 175,01)0
Xanj Monday, and his prize
check tonight probably will
exceed $UU,O0o.
But if Ward, who won in
1959, had pushed just a trifle
haraer on the throttle when
he made his first pit stop, the
chances are Rathmann would
not be sitting at the victory
banquet head table.
Indianapolis (I Pli Bob
Christie of Grants Pass,
Or., finished in 10th place
in the annual 500-mile
peedway clastic Monday,
Hii average speed was 133.
46 miles per hour,
Len Sutton of Portland,
Ore., was forced lo drop out
after 46 laps with broken
piston rings. He wound up
in 30th place in the field of
33.
Shorty Templeman of
Seattle finished in 17th
place. He went 194 of the
200 laps before clutch fail
ure forced him out.
Ward's crew changed his
tires and filled the fuel tank
in 21 seconds. As they pushed
him off to get back into the
chase, Ward's motor died. It
took another 38 seconds for
the crew to push him back
into position and start his
engine.
13 Seconds Ahead
Rathmann was about 13
seconds in front at the fin
ish line, but he and Ward
had a seesaw duel for the
last 150 miles. One would
hold the lead three or four
laps, then the other would
scream in front at a 145-mile-per-hour
pace.
And Rathmann's margin was
less than a second when Ward
had to let up with three laps
to go, his fuel nearly gone
and his tires badly worn from
the excess speed he hit to
make up the 38 seconds lost
in the pits.
"I was afraid my gas
wouldn't hold out," Ward
said. A post-race check
showed he was correct, but
he was no worse off than Rath
mann. The winner's crew
chief, Chickie Hiroshima, told
him he had enough fuel for
"about one more turn of the
track."
The race set speed records
at all marking points except
three. These were the first lap
and at 110 and 120 laps. The
pace fell below the record
at the latter points only be
cause the yellow caution flag,
requiring slow speeds, was
on twice for extended periods.
One Driver Hurt
The yellow light was on for
29 minutes and 7 seconds alto
gether, but only one driver
was injured. Eddie Russo was
hurt when his car hit the
wall on the southeast turn.
Death came not on the track
but beside it when two specta
tors, William C. Craig, 37,
Zionsville, Ind., and Fred H.
Linder, 23, Indianapolis, were
killed in the collapse of a
homemade gran dstand,
brought into the track by a
spectator on two trucks and
erected inide the northeast
turn. .
The first three finishers
broke the old record speed
of 135.857 set by Ward last
year. It was uncertain whether
Paul Goldmith, St. Clair
Shores, Mich., or Branson, of
Champaign, 111., was third,
but they occupied the next
two positions and the official
placing will be announced to
day. Others in the first ten were,
in order, Eddie Johnson, Cuy
ahoga Falls, Ohio; Johnny
Thomson, Boyer town, Pa.;
Lloyd Ruby, Houston, Tex.;
Bob Veith, Oakland, Calif.;
Bud Tingelstad, Dayton, Ohio;
and Bob Christie, Grants Pass,
Ore., all finishing at speeds
of more than 133 miles per
hour.

for the 100-yard dash at 9.4
for the third time in three
days.
Jerome broke his own meet

field record was set in 1957
by Steve Anderson of Oregon.
Jerome and Spike Arlt
were double winners. Arlt set

After Game
By MILTON RICHMAN
United Press International
New York-IUPD - Battered,
swollen-jawed Mickey Mantle,
victim of one of the worst
mob scenes in Yankee Sta
dium's history, insisted today
he never hit any fan purpose
ly and "anyone who said I
did is a damn liar."
His face still bruised and
puffed up from the mauling
he took Monday, Mantle nev
ertheless accompanied the
Yankees to Baltimore early
today and expected to be in
the lineup against the Orioles
tonight.
Mantle will be unable to
chew his food for the next
three days as a result of the
pummelling he received. He's
not complaining, though. He
says it could have been far
worse.
Mobbed by Children
Complaints from people
who described themselves as
irate parents, however, came
into the Yankee Stadium
switchboard that Mantle had
purposely swung at some chil
dren who mobbed him Mon
day shortly after he made the
final putout in the nightcap
of a double-header against the
Washington Senators.
The disorder began moments
after the 28-ye2r-flri outfield
er had grabbed Julio Becqu
er's liner to nail down a 3-2
victory for the Yankees. Man
tle caught the ball in left
center and then headed for
the dugout. Almost immedi
ately an excited portion of
the 42,927 fans vaulted over
the fence ran onto the field,
and converged on the Yankee
star.
"Four or five kids tried to
grab my cap just as I got to
second base," Mantle said.
"One of them hit me on the
chin with his elbow and
another with his shoulder.
"Then all of them started
shoving, punching and push
ing for a while I didn't think
I was going to make the dug
out. I never saw anything like
it in my life."
WKS TULSA OPCII

won the Tulsa Open tennis
tournament by defeating Earl
Bucholz of St. Louis. 84), 6-1.

the 100-yard dash. Jerome ran
the dash in 9.4 twice Satur
day in the California relays
at Modesto-one in the prelimi
naries and once in winning
the final heat.
Jerome took the 220 yard
dash in 21.3, again beating
Eves with 21.6.
Parry O'Brien, attached to
the Los Angeles Striders,
pushed the shot 60 feet, 6V2
inches for a safe margin in
that event. His closest compe
tition came from Stanford's
Jerry Winter with 56 feet, 4Va
inches.
Dellinger Wins Mil
Bill Dellinger commanded
the field in the mile. Running
for the Emerald Empire Ath
letic association he hit the
tape in 4:08.8.
In the two-mile run, Mel
Rnhertsnn of the Stricter
came in in 9:07.7 with fellow
Strider Pete Mundle breaking
9:21.7.
The pole vault was a tie
between Leroy Culver, of
Abilene Christian, and Phil
Paquin of Oregon at 14 feet,
6 inches
A special high school mile
was taken by Fred Dellinger
of Springfield, Ore., in 4:18.5.
Barry Addens of Vancouver,
B.C. was second with 4:21.5.
About 4,000 fans gathered
to watch the meet which fea
tured a group of Olympic
game candidates.
A scheduled 880-yard run
between ace miler Dyrol
Burleson and Stanford's
Ernie Cunliffe was called off.
Fanfare
One of the finest gestures
we've heard of in sports oc
curred during the recent Dis
trict 6 A-l track meet at Cen
tral Point. After Ron Hoat
son, Grants Pass, won the
discus and set a new record
doing it, he took his blue
ribbon and medal to Ed
Knapp, Crater High coach and
director of the meet. Hoatson
asked that his awards be
given to Glen Cote of Crater
who was in the hospital after
having been struck by an auto.
The Caveman prepster told
Knapp that Cote deserved the
awards and that anyone who
won the district discus with
out Cote entered was only
second best.
VISIT PAID
Another fine gesture was
by Pete Newell, University
of California basketball
mentor, who addressed the
St. Mary's High sports
award dinner last week.
Newell paid a visit lo Ken
Durkee and Clay Varney.
Medford High athlete, who
have been hospitalized since
an early April accident. He
presented each a picture of
the California basketball
team autographed by the
players.
MISCUE NOT IN PARK
One error committed at Eu
gene last Friday where the
Medford High Black Tornado
played North Eugene in state
baseball quarterfinals was
chargable to Coach John
Koveni. But it didn't occur
on the playing field. En route
from North High to Bethel
park, a wrong route was
taken. To get back on the
right track, Kovenz picked
out a short cut for his station
wagon load of players and
his car bogged down In some
gooey muck. Luckily, there
was a squad of strong-muscled
athletes around to help free
the vehicle from the mud.

Scoreboard
Called Joke
By Piersall
By GENE BLUDEAU
United Press International
Chicago (UPI) Bill Veeck
and Jimmy Piersall clashed
today over Veeck's $340,000
scoreboard which Piersall
called "baseball's biggest
joke."
Veeck, president of the Chi
cago White Sox who had the
many-splendored marvel in
stalled this spring didn't
think it was a joking matter
at all.
He told the temperamental
outfielder for the Cleveland
Indians, "You can do all the
flit-gunning around you want
in the park, but lay off that
scoreboard."
Veeck called the Indians'
dressing room immediately
after the Indians' doublehead
er sweep over the White Sox.
This was bad enough, but
Piersall laid on the finishing
touch when, after making the
last put out of the afternoon
in centerfield, he wheeled
around and scored a direct
hit on the scoreboard with
the ball.
Something Drastic
"This Piersall is a good, de
cent kid, and he can clown
around all he wants with the
umpires, But I told him that
if he tries that once more I
am going to do something
drastic," Veeck said later.
What could he do?
"You just watch that Sox-o-grams
tonight if he acts up,"
Veeck said. "I can put any
message I want to on that, and
I've already got one in mind."
Sox-o-grams occupy the
huee right third of the score
board. Lighted messages are
flashed at intervals during
the game. Thus far, they have
carried such innocuous infor
mation as "Today is Turk
Lown's birthday," or "Min-
oso' is now second in league
rbi's."
For his part, Piersall said
he had no plans to damage
the board in the future.
"But I didn't feel that way
about it yesterday," he said.
"Just as I caught that last
ball, some fan hit me in the
back of the head with an
orange. I couldn't see who did
it, so I took a shot at the
scoreboard, which is a joke.
Baseball's biggest joke as far
as I'm concerned."
