A SMOOTH AS SILK nnrnrrn m rO K.li USfctl CO, KMHCtK'IS, IBfJl ttitXi 0 Pierce To Take Mound For Giants By HAL. WOOD UPI Spoiti Writer San Francisco IUPI) Little Billy Pierce, who carries on a mutual admiration affair with the City of San Francis co, goes to the mound tonight for the Giants against the St. Louis Cardinals. It's the opening game of a long home stand and about 20,000 fans are expected at Candlestick Park to see Pierce duel with the veteran Curt Simmons of the Cards. Simmons and Dick Farrell of the Houston Colts are the only hurlers in the National League to go the distance against the Giants this year in 32 outings. Simmons pas a 5-0 record and Pierce is 4-0. San Francisco enters the game holding a four-game lead over Los Angeles, five over the Cards and witn Willie Mays hitting only .265 "But we are in a better situation and playing better ball than we were last year," says Mays. "I'm not hitting as good as I should. But some body seems to pick us up when we need the hits. That's the way championship teams work." Nobody's worried about Willie's hitting. Although his average is down, he has smasher 10 home runs and driven in 25 runs. The pleasant surprises are infielders Chuck Hiller (.311), Jose Pagan . (.293) and Jim Davenport (.337). While their averages have not been over powering, they have hit in the clutch and their fielding has been brilliant. "We played good all-around ball on this road trip," says manager Alvin Dark. "But it's still far too early to talk about a pennant. There are tough teams in this league. Our pitching will have to stand up if we are to stay on top." So far this year the pitch ing has been a pleasant sur prise. Giant hurlers have gone the distance 17 times out of the 32 games played. Ortega Helps Spokane Win Over Seattle By United Press International Spokane's Phil Ortega sin glehandedly halted the Indi an's six-game losing streak Monday night. The punchless Indians again did not produce much at the plate, but Ortega who looms large in future Los Angeles Dodger plans tossed a two hitter in his first PCL start as Spokane squeaked by Seattle 1-0. The tough-luck loser was young Stew McDonald. In the third, Spokane's Lib Julian doubled, Ortega helped him self out with a sacrifice, and Rod Graber singled.

The track meets are the District 6 A-l at Klamath Falls and the District 6 A-2 Suns Top Buffalo United Press International Ted Abernathy, 29-year-old right-hander whose stay in the major leagues was shortened due to arm trouble, has been showing signs of late that he may make it back to the big show as a relief pitcher.

Florida Trying To Lure Teams From Arizona Fort Lauderdale, Fla. OIPO The Florida Chamber of Com merce baseball committee to day set its sights on five ma jor league baseball teams training in Arizona and said it would try to get them to train in Florida. The first target will be the Boston Red Sox, who hold spring training at Scottsdale, Ariz., according to committee chairman Robbie Robison. Ted Groves, sports nromo- tlon manager of the Florida Devel ooment . Commission, said the logical Florida spot for the Red Sox to train would be Bradenton, which loses the Milwaukee Braves to West Palm Beach next spring. "We re doing everything we can on the state level to help Bradenton get the Bosox." Groves said. "If Bos ton leaves Arizona, that state's due for trouble because of scheduling problems." Robison commented thai at tendance at GraDcfruit league games in Florida was about 400.000 in 1062, a 10 per cent increase over the previous spring. Fourteen major league teams currently train In Florida. Palmer Edges Pott By Four Strokes By ED FITE UPI Sports Writer Fort Worth, Tex. tUPli Johnny Pott, beaten by Arn old Palmer in an 18-hole playoff for the Colonial Na tional Invitation Tournament Gubner To Meet Long In Shot Put Los Angeles IUPII Southern California's Dallas Long and New York University's Gary Gubner, two muscle-bulging athletes who handle a shot put the way most people do a to mato, meet Friday night at the Coliseum Relays. The re sult should be a 65-foot put. USC's track coach, Jess Hill, told the Southern Cali fornia track and field writers Monday that Gubner's compe tition is all Long needs to get over 63 feet with the 16-pound ball. Dallas, who as a freshman was getting the shot out around the 64 foot mark, had appeared lethargic in some meets this season. Many ki bitzers said Long-now a Sen ior and Trojan captain -was getting old, or something, be cause he was tossing ' only 61 feet. But Long threw a college record last Saturday at the Fresno, Calif., relays-and was selected as field athlete of the week by the writers. "He has been coming along slowly," Hill explained abo'.it Dallas . marks this season. 'but I think he is ready for his best." Predictions USC frosh track coach and high jumper Bob Avant said Long would better 6 feet 10 inches against Gubner. Avant also said it would take a leap of 7 feet to win the high Jump at the Coliseum meet. The writers, polled on the outcome of various events, ev idently thought so too. Most of the 70 ballots cast had the winning high jumper getting over 7 feet, the mile time De- 1 I J u . low iuur muiuies oiiu mc iiihc vault over 16 feet. Sixty two ol the experts voted that New fceaianas great Peter Snell would run a sub-four minute mile riaay, and of that number 49 said he would do 3:59 or faster, In the pole voult, with the world s only 16 foot vaulters Dave Tork and John Uelscs- entered in the competition, 35 ballots predicted the winning height would be 16 feet or better. Chairman of the Coliseum Relays selection committee, Willis O.
