ON DISABLED LIST Chicago - (UPD - Outfielder Jim Rivera was placed on the disabled list Sunday by the Chicago White Sox when X rays revealed he had suffered a broken thumb during Sat urday's game with the Boston Red Sox. A club spokesman said Rivera was expected to be sidelined for three weeks. x i if n fl I w modern Walt Keeps Dodgers in Top Tune Los Angeles -(UPD - Manager Walt Alston would not let his Los Angeles Dodgers rest to day although they had a bye sending them through a morn ing' workout to keep sharp while they await the arrival Tuesday night of the San Francisco Giants. ' . The Dodgers swept their three-game series with the Cincinnati Reds, capped by a 5-1 victory Sunday which fea tured the continuation of Wal- ly Moon's hitting and home run streak and the excellent pitching of Roger Craig. Moon his his eighth homer in the fourth inning, smash ing one of Cincy pitcher Bob Furkey's knuckle balls 320 feet just past the right side of the screen in left field. It marked , the 12th straight game in which Moon has hit safely. Although it was his only hit in four times at bat, it left his average at .500. ' Alston said that Craig was highly effective with his slid er, showed excellent control and a better fast ball than he has demonstrated previously this season. Pender Eye On Money Boston '- IUPD - Fractional middleweight champion Paul Pender is eyeing London - and a $100,000 guarantee - instead of West Jordan, Utah. The 30-year-old ex-Marine, who once had to quit boxing because of ' brittle, broken hands, says a rematch with British middleweight cham pion Terry Downes is just about consummated. The 15-round title fight would be held indoors, at the Wimbledon Pool. The date that Boston matchmaker Sam Silverman and British pro moter Harry Levene are dick ering for is July 3. ' Its been open Knowledge for a month that Pender would meet Downes in his next fight instead of trying again for a shot at National Boxing association champ Gene Fullmer of West Jordan, Utah. . Pender made it official Sat urday night after successfully defending his share of the crown for the third time by unanimously decisioning vet eran Carmen Basilio at Bos ton Garden. "Fullmer?" he replied to a question about his future plans. "I might give him a shot sometime. But I want some money first and Downes has first try." Johnson Defends Philadelphia - (UPD - Harold Johnson, a new champion with an old hunger, defends his National Boxing associa tion light heavyweight title tonight against Von Clay, a fellow Philadelphia!! with a big punch. The 31 odds favoring John son reflect his confidence that the 21-year-old Cliay will be his 65th .victim in a 73-bout career. Why else would the champion, who has fought through 16 lean years, risk a bread-and-butter title just two short months after winning it? Johnson captured the NBA version of the 175-pound title by whipping Jesse Bow dry at Miami Beach in February after the NBA had stripped Archie Moore of the crown for failing to defend In 18 months. However. ' Moore is still recognized as champion in New (York, Massachusetts and Europe. Clay, making a bid for the 175-pound crown in his 19th professional bout, is billed as a devastating puncher.

The former Louisiana State golf star-capped his comeback by canning a 25-foot birdie putt on 18 to give him a 67 for the day and a 276 total.
