Better Year in 1 963
Goal of Herrmann
"Next year I'm going to
have a better year."
That is the vow of Fred
Herrmann, ex-Crater High
school baseball pitcher who
hurled for three teams in the
St. Louis Cardinals' farm sys
tem during the past season.
Grosscup
Stars for
NY Titans
United Press International
For three years now Lee
Grosscup has been trying to
tell everyone that he's a pro
quarterback and he proved it
convincingly in his first game
for the New York Titans in
the American Football league.
Grosscup, a bench-warmer
three seasons for the New
York Giants of the National
league and a reject by the
Minnesota Vikings last week,
threw an 80-yard touchdown
pass to Art Powell the first
time he got his hands on the
ball in the AFL.
In an incredible perform
ance for a newcomer who had
joined the club only 48 hours
previously, Grosscup, ex
Utah, completed two more
TD tosses Sunday in leading
the Titans to a 28-17 upset vic
tory over the Oakland Raid
ers. Oilers Win
The Houston Oilers began
their quest for a third straight
AFL championship by beating
off the Buffalo Bills' desper
ate last-half comeback for a
28-23 triumph in Sunday's on
ly other game. On Saturday
night, the Dallas Texans
trounced the Boston Patriots,
42-28.
"I've been frustrated sitting
on the bench for three years,"
said quarterback Grosscup to
day. "It's wonderful to get to
play football again.
"I guess I should have been
playing in the American
league all along."
Grosscup was picked up by
the Titans on Friday.
"I didn't think we'd be able
to use him in the Sunday
game." said Coach Clyde Bull
dog Turner. "But when I got
to talking to him I found out
he was a very intelligent lad
and that he learned the plays
real quick.
Herrmann, who will reside
in Medford until spring train
ing calls, pitched for Tulsa,
Okla., in the Class AA Texas
league, for Portsmouth, Va.,
in the Class A Salley league,
and for Winnipeg, Man., in
the C Northern league, dur
ing the 1962 campaigns.
The ex-Comet, who went
on to shine for Linfield col
lege, said that he had a real
good spring in training with
the Cards. With Tulsa he got
off to a bad start and he nev
er came back during the sea
son. "I felt 1 did not get to
throw enough," he declared.
Will Be All Right
Herrman said determinedly,
"Next year I'll be all right
again.
The twirler reported that
he spent about one-third of
the season with each team.
His pitching records were 1-2
at Tulsa, 0-3 at Portsmouth
and 2-4 at Winnipeg. He was
used mostly in relief. His bat
ting mark was around .200.
Herrman believes he is tick
eted to go back to double or
triple A ball next spring. He
was with Portland of the Pa
cific Coast league in 1961.
During the off season he
will work for Oregon Tire and
attend night classes at South
ern Oregon. He has eight
hours left to complete for a
degree.
Fred's wife is the former
Dixie Walker of Gold Hill.
Jack Nicklaus Victor in
World Series; Finds He
Links
Belongs
By LEO H. PETERSEN
UPI Sports Editor
Akron, Ohio -IW- Jack
Nicklaus, only 22, was right
up there at the top today but
een more important to him
was the fact that he finally
knows he "belongs."
He knocked off the other
major champions Arnold
Palmer and Gary Player for
the S50.000 first place money
in the first "world series" of
golf Sunday and that con
vinced him.
"I've been doing well,"
Nicklaus observed with a
smile. "But I wondered even
after I won the U. S. Open
whether I belonged up there
with the "king" that's Pal
mer and all the rest.
"1 guess I do now."
He does.
When he came from behind
to beat Palmer and Player
by fi i strokes in the televi
sion spectacular, which match
ed the winners of the four
major golf crowns, it left lit
tle doubt that there is a new
golf champion in the making.
Feels Conlident
- Nicklaus had that feeling,
too. ,
"I'm not interested in one
grand slam, I'd like to have
at least two," he smiled when
asked whether he had the
same ambition as Palmer
to win all the four big ones
in the same year. That would
be the Masters and British
Open, which Palmer won this
year, the PGA which Player
won, and the Open, which
Nicklaus look in a playoff
with Palmer.
So when he fired a one-under-par
over the Firestone
Country club course Sunday,
it was the second time that,
head to head, he had beaten
the man he calls the greatest
golfer of our times Palmer.
Palmer led Nicklaus by one
stroke and Player by four go
ing into Sunday's final 18
holes of play.
Palmer had fired a five-under-par
65 on the first
round, scrambling all the way
to do it. So it looked like "Mr.
Moneybags" was going to pick
up another fifty grand.
Loses Putting Touch
But Sunday his putter let
him down. On his opening
round 65, he had 11 putts on
the first nine holes. Sunday
he had 19.
"That's why I got beat,"
said Palmer.
Palmer's game Sunday was
just the opposite of his Satur
day round. On Saturday he
had birdies on the first three
holes and on the eighth. Sun
day he bogeyed all four, three
of them with three-putt greens.
Nicklaus won it with three
birdies on the back nine.
He went out in 37, two over
par over the 7,165-yard Fire
stone course, but came home
in 32 for a one-under-par 69
and a total of 135. Palmer,
noted for his stretch charges,
chopped up the course with
a four-over par 39-35 74.
That left him in a tie with
Player who had an even par
35-35 70. They each won
$12,500, splitting the second
place and third-place money
of $15,000 and $10,000.
Indianapolis Winds

United Preis International
The Indianapolis Indians
wound up their pennant-winning
1962 season yeserday in
the powerful style that drove

Oklahoma City 89ers 4-1, a
victory which brought indivi
dual league honors to three
Indian players.

Claim of Foul
Sidelines Ycuza
Chicago-flJPD - The Jockeys
Guild, which managed once
before to temper a similar
penalty, today will look at
films of the race which
brought 2V4 months of impos
ed idleness for rider Manuel
Ycaza.
Ycaza drew a 10-week SU'
spension Saturday for the Il
linois State Racing commis
sion for making a "frivolous
claim of foul" when his mount
finished second in history's
richest horse race the Arlington-Washington
futurity.
When Ycaza was fined $200
and suspended for a similar
offense in the Preakness last
May 19, the guild managed
to get the suspension cut to
10 days.
Ycaza, riding favored Never
Bend, finished second behind
a Rex Ellsworth entry, Candy
Spots, in the $367,000 Futur
ity. Afterward, he claimed
that his mount was - fouled
by another Ellsworth entry,
Big Kim.
Hank Moreno, who rode
Big Kim, denied it. So did
Willie Shoemaker, who was
on Candy Spots. The stewards,
after looking at films of the
race, agreed and recommend
ed that Ycaza be disciplined.
