Odds Against Angels Staying In First Place Los Angeles - (UPD - They'll never stay there - at least the odds are against it - but the Los Angeles Angels today were in first place in the American league for the ini tial time in their brief his tory. The team's timing was per fect too. Because today is An gel's appreciation day, when the club will be given a sa lute on tlie steps of the City Hall and a parade through the downtown area in prepara tion for the first home game Tuesday night in 56,000-seat Chavez Ravine Sladium-also the home of the Dodgers. And an old Los Angeles fa vorite, bulging Steve Bilko, was one of the main reasons the Angels Sunday won their third game in a row, 6-3, from the host Minnesota Twins, to take over the league lead. Bilko, whose popularity in this city has been at a peak since he played for the old Pacific Coast league Angels in the mid-1050's, powered two home runs to spark Los An geles to a sweep of the two game series in chilly weather at Minneapolis-St. Paul. Musial Heads Batting Chase Philadelphia - HIPP - A fa miliar name leads all the rest today in the Nntional League batting race: Stan Musial.

If he weren't hobbled by lumbago, hardening of the ar teries and the assorted other ills of the aged, the old chap might really he showing the yniing fellas how te do it. 'A Pittsburgh Bucs They're Still in By FRED DOWN UPI SPoris Writtr Amid all the hoopla over the early-season heroics of the San Francisco Giants and Houston Colt .45s, the Pitts burgh Pirates posted a gentle reminder today that they're still in the National League. Remember the Pirates? They were world champions in 1960 only to nose-dive Into a humiliating sixth-place fin ish in 1961. Well, tney're leading the league today with a perfect 4-0 slate and one very good reason is the return to form Bees, Hawaii Open Coast Loop Season United Prtis International The Salt Lake City Bees, who were the cellar-dwellers in last year's Pacific Coast league baseball campaign, to day had an opportunity to be gin the new season in first place. , Salt Lake met the Hawaii Islanders at Honolulu today In the only game on the first day slate. A Bee victory would put them in first place at least until the rest of the league swings into action Tuesday night. Hawaii, which tied for sixth last season, will be just as eager to be the year's first leader and will be out to make Salt Lake City start this sea son where it left off last fall Two doubleheaders and two Cincinnati Stops SF San Francisco - WPP-Errors, the very thing that helped the San Francisco Giants ride to 13-6 victory over the Cin cinnati Reds on Saturday, were the main reason why manager, Alvin Dark's troops fell back on the ground with a thud Sunday. The Reds not only pinned a 4-3 defeat on them at Candlestick Park but knock ed them out of the undefeat ed corps after they had won their first five games of the season. And more possible bad news checks into town tonight when the Los Angeles Dodg ers take over Candlestick Park for a. two-game joust. Manager Walter Alston, whose Dodgers are the UPI pennant selection, plans to start with big Stan Williams (0-0) against the Giants' lefty Billy Odell (1-0). A crowd of 28,697 watched Sunday as the Giants handed Cincinnati a pair of unearned runs In the third inning by committing two errors, and then uncorked a three-run rally in the eighth that fell short. Ingo Foe Says Ref Beat Him Stockholm, Sweden - (UPO - Ingemar Johansson's latest success along the boxing come back trail was jeered at by Dutch heavyweight Wim Snoek. who insisted that a Swedish referee helped lngo beat him Sunday night. Johansson, who held the world heavyweight title less than two years ago, recover ed from a first-round knock down and went on to knock Snoek out Sunday night at one minute and 15 seconds of the fifth round. Ingo almost lost the fight, however, when he was tagged with a hard left to the jaw by Snoek when the bout was only 50 seconds old. Johansson took the manda tory eight count and was no ticeably groggy when he rose. The referee, Bert Loevendahl, took a few seconds to wipe Johansson's gloves before or dering the fight to be resum ed. Snoek angrily protested aft er the fight that Loevendahl was the "real winner" of the match.
