It was an ironic tableau -ironic because the author of the season's first no-hitter had himself been topped by a no- hitter - and also because three months ago neither principal in the drama figured to be still wearing a major league uniform on this date. Perhaps never before in baseball history have two no hitters been achieved so close together by two such unlikely candidates for no-hit fame. Belinsky achieved his for the Los Angeles Angels with a 2-0 victory over the Balti more Orioles, May 5, and Wil son, a wild fireballer who started out as a catcher, matched It Tuesday night with a 2-0 triumph for the Boston Red Sox over Belinsky. The 220-pound native of Ponchatoula, La., who now lives in San Diego, Calif., had failed in two previous trials with the Red Sox and was regarded as too wild to be a first-class pitcher. "Pleasingly Wild" He was "pleasingly wild," to use coach Sal Maglie's phrase, Tuesday night, walk ing four and striking out five en route to his classic. It was his third victory in succes sion and his sixth of the sea son but it was only his first complete game. Wilson made it a night to remember all his life with a homer into the left field screen that produced the Red Sox' first run. The no-hitter was the first at Fenway Park, Boston, since Detroit's Jim Bunning pitched one on July 20, 1958, and the first by a Red Sox pitcher I since Mel Parnell pitched one j against the Chicago White ; Sox, July 14, 1956. Meanwhile, back to the pen nant races: The Minnesota Twins whip ped the New York Yankees, 5-0, and moved to within one game of the American league lead when the Cleveland In dians split with the Detroit Tigers, winning, 3-1, in 12 innings after a 6-0 defeat. The Kansas City Athletics shaded the Washington Senators, 2-1, and the Baltimore Orioles topped the Chicago White Sox, 1-0, in other games. Giants On Top In the National league, the ! San Francisco Giants regained first place by beating the Cin cinnati Reds, 6-5, in 10 in nings while the Milwaukee Braves were knocking off the Los Angeles Dodgers, 2-1. The Philadelphia Phillies swept the Houston Colts, 2-0 and 6-4, the Pittsburgh Pirates tripped the New York Mots, 5-2, and the St. Louis Cardi nals bombed the Chicago Cubs, 15-3. Richie Rollins had two homers and two singles to drive in four runs and Camilo Pascual struck out 12 batters for the Twins who dealt Ro land Sheldon his fourth loss. Rollins raised his average to .336 and Pascual his season strikeout total to 101. Rocky Colavito's grand slam homer and Jim Bunning's four-hit. 10-strikeout pitching paced the Tigers to their first game victory. The Indians squared the doubleheader, however, when Al Luplow's two-run 12th inning homer, jjMfc ft j LrCI his fourth hit, gave Gary Bell his fifth triumph. Rookie Dan Pfister pitched a six-hitter to win his first game for the Athletics while Mil Pappas' four-hitter out dueled Johnny Buzhardt's eight-hitter as the Orioles lop ped the White Sox. Won In I Oth The Giants tied at 4-4 and again at 5-5 on a grand slam j by Ed Bailey and a solo horn-: er by Jim Davenport, then ! won in the 10th when Orlando Cepeda singled home Felipe Alou, running for Willie Mc Covey. Relief ace Stu Miller picked up his fourth victory for the Giants and Dave Sisler suffered his third loss for the Reds. Johnny Edwards hit a two-run homer and a triple for the losers. Lew Burdette pitched a five-hitter and Hank Aaron had a double and a single as the Braves handed Sandy Koufax his fourth loss despite 13 strikeouts by the NL whiff king. It was Burdette's sixth straight win after the veteran , right-hander lost his first four i decisions. ' Jack Hamilton hurled a two-hitter and Art Mahaffcy a seven-hitter to lead the Phil-1 lies to their sweep of the j Colts. Clay Dalrymple hit a key double in the first game I and a two-run triple in the nightcap for the Phillies. Don Clendcnon's triple and homer paced the Pirates as they handed the Mets their 50th defeat of the season while Gene Oliver and Char ley James hit three-run hom ers and Bill White and Ken Boyer hit bases-empty round trippers in the Cardinals' rout of the Cubs.

Bates said here Monday, "We've committed ourselves to a good attendance against the Hoosiers and if we are forced to play the game in Pullman, we may have trou ble in the future scheduling Big Ten schools." The stadium is being en larged to accommodate an ad ditional 8,000 spectators, bringing the seating capacity to 35,000. Work on the sta dium has been halted due to the strike of about 6S0 iron workers in Eastern Washing ton and Northern Idaho. Completion of the stadium could also have an important bearing on WSU's early show ing in the Athletic Association of Western Universities which Washington State was asked to enter earlier this month, Bat! said. He said the Cougars will plav three AAWU members in 1!7 mi fwvH kr a full member a Y 1963.
