Newspaper Page TextCincinnati Reds To Win National By FRED DOWN UPI Spoilt Wriltr It's about time that the Cincinnati Rods should be taken seriously aj a threat to win their second straight Na tional league pennant. They're still eight games behind the front-running Los Angeles Dodgers but they're the hottest team in the league with nine straight wins. And a team that floundered in the early months of the season is beginning to "jell" for man ager Kred Hutchinson. The Reds rolled to their Neal Ellis, BF, County Softball Hitting Neal Ellis of Bulte Falls, in the minor league of the Jack son County Softball associa tion, is the circuit's leading hitter in games through July 17, according to statistics re leased by Harry Chipman, league president.

Tarr. one of the world's best hurdlers, signed a con tract with the Denver Broncos of the American Football league Wednesday. Bowerman said Tarr signed the contract because he need ed the money. He did not blame either the Broncos or Tarr, but he did blame the AAU. "It couldn't be pointed nut more clearly what a decadent system has done," Bowerman charged. He said Tarr's only income while a member of the U.S. track team which defeated Russia and Poland was two dollars a day for "in cidental expenses." The two dollars a day, Bow erman said, wouldn't even pay taxi fare in Chicago. Tarr. who completed his eligibility at Oregon In June, has been unemployed and liv ing with his widowed mother In Bakcrsficld, Calif., when he was not running against the Russians and the Poles. Bowerman has been in strumental in organizing the National Track Coaches' Fed eration, which is trying to break AAU monopoly in con trol of the sport.

LeRoy Sargent paced the scoring with four runs, fol lowed by Leonard Button and Pine Quits Forty Niners San i'rancisco IUPD L a s t winter a young fellow from Reno, Nev., Ed Pine, was bubbling over with happi ness. He had been chosen as the No. 2 draft selection of the San Francisco Forty Niners. "It's a childhood ambition," said Pine at the time. "Al! my life I've wanted to play for the Forty Niners." Today Pine, who was a great linebacker at the Uni versity of Utah, Is all through with professional football after less than a week of ac tivity at the Forty Niner camp in Moraga. He decided, after all, that he couldn't give his all to the pro game as he had in college The fact that Pine is in love and about to be married to a Reno heiress had nothing In do wilh his leaving the cluh he claims. "I just decided, after a hitch in the Army, that I should get more education." he said. "That's why I left the Forty Niners." To coach Red Hickey of the San Francisco club it was a big blow. Pine, a 230-pounder with fine agility, had been counted on as a top prospect in the season's plans. "It's a great disappoint ment to lose a top draft choice this way," says Hickey. "But it's happened before and it will happen again. Sometimes the boys get homesick or they just don't like the prospect of bal ling their brains out in pro ball." JACK NEER ADVANCES Victoria, B.C.

Umpires For Long, By MILTON RICHMAN New York (UPD Who's to blame for all these 1-o-n-g, drawn out ball games? The pitchers, beyond any question of a doubt. So say the umpires, who tend to agree that three-hour ball games are rapidly caus ing fans to leave the ball park long before the final putout. "There is no question that the pitchers are primarily re sponsible for the games that drag and drag until all hours," said veteran American league umpire Joe Paparella. "Next time you go out to the ball game, make it a point to watch the pitchers out there on the mound. They dig around in the dirt, scratch themselves and seem to take forever trying to make the perfect pitch." Hank Soar, another AL um pire, agreed completely with Paparella. "The pitchers are more to blame than anyone else," Soar aid. "In the old days, a pitcher would have a fast ball, a curve and a change, and that was it. Today they have a doz en different pitches, they can't get any one of them over the plate and they go to 3-and-2 most every time." Hutchinson Was Fait Paparella and Soar, along with all the other umpires, yearn for those days when Cincinnati manager Fred Hutchinson was pitching for the Detroit Tigers. "Hutch was the fastest worker I ever saw," Paparella recalled. "He couldn't get the ball from the catcher fast Grants Pass Girls Face Links Together Portland -IUPD- Cathy Brai ker of Yakima, Wash., and Pat Reeves of Seattle gained the finals Thursday of the Pacific Northwest Golf Asso ciation junior girls' tourna ment.
