Washinglon - il'fD - Pumpsie Green was fined an estimated S1.000 Saturday for jump ing'' the Boston Red Sox and his vanished teammate, Gene Conley, faced a similar disci plinary slap when irate Man ager Mike Higgins catches up with him. Upon awakening Saturday in his Washington hotel room, Green received a severe dress- lng-aown irom niKK" mysterious disapp e a r a nee from the club Thursday in New York. Green and Conley left the team bus during a traffic jam and neither show ed up for Friday night's twi night doubleheader against the Washington Senators. "Green told me he had no reason for doing what he did," said Higgins following his pri vate talk with his 27-year-old utility infielder. "He said he was sorry but he had no ex cuse to offer. "Under the circumstances, I have no other course but to fine him a very substantial amount," Higgins said sternly. He would not divulge the ex act amount, but sources close to the Red Sox estimated the fine as high as $1,000. Higgins was visibly angered when Conley's name was men tioned by newsmen. The Red Sox skipper hinted that Con ley's fine might be even stif fcr than Green's. Conley was known to have checked out of a New York hotel Friday night but his whereabouts remained a mys tery. The six - foot - eight right handed pitcher, who doubles as a pro basketball player, was upset after being knocked out of the box Thursday dur ing an eight-run, third-inning uprising by the New York Yankees. He might have sur vived the inning had it not been for some poor defensive plays by the Red Sox. QUINN WON MATCH Warwick, R. 1. - UlPli Ron nie Quinn of West Warwick, R.

That blow and a highly ef fective five-hit pitching per formance by Johnny Podres were all the Dodgers needed. Only an unearned run kept Podres from recording a shut out. But the win was his first complete game victory at the Dodgers' new stadium and gave him a 7-7 record. "Podres pitched great ball." Giants manager Alvin Dark conceded, "and one swing beat us." That swing by Howard brought an ovation from the crowd of 54.000.
