The action occurred ale By FRED DOWN UPI Sports Writer Can Don Drysdale over come the 30-game jinx and succeed where Bob Feller and Hal Newhouscr tailed? If so, he'll be the major leagues' first 30-game winner since Dizzy Dean in 1934. And, if not, he'll have only : to study the records of Feller and Newhouser to realize that those last hurdles enroute to the 30-game plateau can be mighty big ones. With No. 21 of the season ! salted away Tuesday night in the Los Angeles Dodgers' 7-5 victory over the New York Mets. Drysdale's timetable to ward 30 is identical with the pace Feller set in 194(i. Fel ler also had 21 victories on Aug. 8 of the '4fi season but suddenly tailed off and wound up with a 26-15 record. Newhouser also made a strong run on 30 in the same season, achieving his 20th vic tory on July 27 and gaining No. 21 on Aug. 15. But he too PROOF I (If it ' more than price r Drysd But R 1 1 MEDFORD " .... jrimMmimsm Gives Up 11 Hits ecords 21st tailed off, and wound up with a 26-9 mark for the season. May Have Felt Pressure Drysdale may have been feeling some of the pressure Tuesday night when he scranv bled to his 11th straight vio tory and raised his record to 21-4. The sidewheeling right hander was tagged for 11 hits by the rag-tag Mets and might not have finished the game except for his hitting - he belled a two-run triple in his own behalf in the sixth in ning. The loss, incidentally, of ficially eliminated the Mets from the NL pennant race. The victory enabled .the Dodgers ' to maintain tiieir 4V2-game lead over the San Francisco Giants, who down ed tlie Philadelphia Phillies 4-2. The Milwaukee Braves defeated the Chicago Cubs, 4-1. the Cincinnati Reds stop ped the Houston Colts, 3-0, and the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Pittsburgh Pirates, o-O. in the other NL games. In the American league, the New York Yankees rout ed I he Minnesota Twins, 14-1, the Los Angeles Angels beat the Boston Red Sox, 3-1, the Cleveland Indians topped the Detroit Tigers, 4-2, the Chi cago While Sox shut out the Baltimore Orioles, 3-0, and the Kansas City Athletics routed the Washington Sen ators, 10-3.

Don Hoak Hit In Eye by Stone PiUsburgh-lUHi- Third base man Don Hoak of the Pitts burgh Pirates was lo undergo further examination todav for a contusion of the right eye suffered when struck by a stone. Hoak incurred the injury Tuesday while driving his au tomobile. The stone caused the eye to dilate and vision to blur. Dr. Joseph Finegold, team physician, said the in jury did not appear serious, but a club spokesman said Hoak would be lost for "an indeterminate period." Hoak's disability was the latest in a succession of mis haps to befall the Pirates. Previously, Roberto Cle mente, Dick Stuart and Smoky Burgess were sidelined with various ailments. Cle- mente and Stuart returned to the lineup Tuesday night but Burgess remained shelved from the effects of a kidney stone.

Fire broke out under the right field stands in the last half of the seventh inning and almost immediately flames, fed by tar, paint and an old tarpaulin, shot into view. Fans and players alike stood up to get a better look at the fire as the flames shot higher and higher into the air. Despite all the commo tion, four Pirates appeared at bat before time was called. Firemen Overcome The umpires were forced to halt play when grounds keepers opened the center field gale to admit police and firemen. Approximately 500 fans were asked to leave the area of the fire as a precau tionary measure. Three firemen were over come by smoke before the fire was brought under con trol. However, all were treat Salt Lake Takes Tilt United Press International Salt Lake City, behind some fine relief pitching by Dave Tyrivcr, topped Van couver 6-3 Tuesday night in the only Pacific Coast League baseball game lo escape the raindrops.

Bill Williams and Gordy Lund led off the Salt Lake seventh with singles and then engineered a double steal. Tony Washington's two-run triple was the big hit of the inning.
