Stafford Hurls Yanks To Tilt of World Series for Three Runs Put Across In Seventh New York -H'PU- Bill Staf ford was great and dead-game, too. but the Giants always will regret the big double play they didn't make. Stafford, 24-year-old flame thrower from Athens, N. Y showed lots of talent in his four-hit 3-2 victory over the Giants in Sunday's third game off his left shinbone in the the Yankees out front in the Series, two games to one. And he showed plenty of moxic, the way he shook the pain of a sizzling line drive by Felipe Alou that cracked of his left shinbone in the eighth inning. He hobbled about and needed a dash of pain-killer and a whiff of smelling salts to go on, but won the game despite Ed Bai ley's two-run homer with two out in the ninth inning. But Bailey's homer made an almost overlooked play in the Yankees' game-winning, three-run rally in the seventh inning all-important. Pitchers Duel Stafford and veteran south paw Billy Pierce of the Giants were matching zeroes at that point and Tom Tresh's single to center to open the New York seventh ws only the third hit off Pierce. Mickey Mantle then lashed a single to left and Felipe Alou, playing the ball on the first bounce, bobbled the high bound. Tresh whipped into third and Mantle legged it into second on the error. Pierce and Bailey held a hasty conference and decided to give Roger Maris nothing really good to hit. But Billy's first serve was "right down the middle" and Maris ripped It into right field for a single RE-ELECT U.S. SENATOR KEEP THIS GREAT DEMOCRAT WORKING FOR OREGON AND YOU!

And when right fielder Wil lie McCovcy bobbled Maris' hit for the Giants' second er ror of the inning, Maris went to second. Pierce went out then and Don Larscn, who hurled his famous "perfect game" in the World Series for the Yankees exactly six years ago today, relieved. Misi Double Play Larscn got Eiston Howard to fly out to Willie Mays, but the drive was long enough to enable Maris to tag up and advance to third after the catch. And when Larson hit Bill Sknowron with a pilch, the Yankees had men on first and third with one out. That's when the Giants missed the big double play. Larsen got Clete Boycr to hit a grounder to shortstop Jose Pagan. Pagan flipped to sec ond baseman Chuck Hillcr for the force play on Skowron. Chuck bubbled the ball in the webbing of his glove, just long enough to miss getting Boycr at first. Marls scored on the play the Yankees' third, and even tually, winning run. Sunday's H-2 Yankee tri umph made the New Yorkers 4-1 favorites to win the Series and they were 7' 2-5 to win today's game in Yankee Sta dium.

OREGON JOHNNY PESKY Will Manage Boston John Pesky New Pilot Of Red Sox New York - IUPII - Johnny Pesky isn't wasting any time in his new job ns manager of the Boston Red Sox. Minutes after the 42-year-old former Red Sox infielder took over the Boston reins from Mike Higgins Saturday night, he started laying plans for Ihe l!IB;i season. "I can't say what the club needs," said Pesky, "but I will sit down with Mike and go over the whole team man-for-man." Pesky and Higgins attended the Ihird game of the World Scries together Sunday at Yankee Stadium and they spent most of the time dis cussing the entire Boston club. "It was like a bolt out of Ihc blue," Pesky said of his appointment. "They called me into a room and told me 1 was the new manager if I wanted the Job. This is something 1 have looked forward to something any guy In base ball would look forward to." Higgins, who was serving this second hitch as Boston manager, will remain with the club as an executive vice president. IM&W I SI NIIAV S'HIIITKRS Hutte KaHer. 112-41 1. Shrrlev Mntrhrr 2.

Tebbets To Manage Cleveland By MILTON RICHMAN San Francisco-tUPB - Birdie Tebbetts fulfilled an old "debt of gratitude" by taking over the Cleveland mangership Sat urday and the Milwaukee team he left Immediately went after Leo Durocher as its No. 1 choice to succeed him. The florid, 50-year-old Teb betts agreed to a three-year-contract to manage Cleveland Friday, explaining that he made the sudden switch from Milwaukee "only because of a long-standing debt" he felt to President Gabe Paul of the Indians. Even as Paul and Tebbetts were shaking hands on terms, Milwaukee officials were making every effort to speak with Leo Durocher in Los An geles about the possibility of his taking over the Braves. Cam About Suddenly "This thing came about so suddenly that I didn't know anything about it until yester day morning," said Tebbetts, who worked under Paul as manager at Cincinnati from 1954 until he suddenly quit in mid-season of 1958, "Gabe called me on the telephone and asked me to meet him at Candlestick Park," Birdie said. "I did and we talked for about two hours while the Giants were playing the Yankees. "It was a terribly difficult decision for me to make be cause the people in Milwaukee treated me magnificently and I love Johnny McHale (presi dent and general manager of the Braves)." Tebbetts was so torn in his decision that he telephoned his wife for help at Braden ton, Fla., finally contacting her In a beauty parlor. "She told me the choice was strictly up to me," Birdie said. "Believe me, I did an awful lot of soul-searching. But in the final analysis I agreed to go with Gabe because he gave me my start as a major league manager." As Cleveland's new man ager, Tebbetts succeeds Mel McGaha, who was fired last Sunday after finishing sixth in his first year at the helm. PREP FOOTBALL SATl'ROAY ClA.MKS North Eugene 13.

I By OSCAR FRALEY United Press International a 16-year-old bigh school short stop in Athens, N.Y. "1 don't like to think about it." he recalled reluctantly. "Our pitcher was struck over the heart by a line drive and died of it some time later." Stafford was drafted to fin ish the remaining five innings of that game, struck out all 15 men he faced and be came a pitcher. Then came Sunday in Yan kee stadium when the tower ing Yankee righthander had a two-hitter going in the eighth inning and San Fran cisco's Felipe Alou lashed a smoking line drive straight back to the mound. It crunch ed against Stafford's left shin and, while he leaped forward, recovered the ball and threw out Alou, he had to receive first aid. Feels Lucky "I feel real lucky," he said, "when I think of where it might have hit me. For a couple of minutes I was so dizzy I couldn't see the catch er." Shortstop Tony Kubek ran over to Stafford and asked him how he felt. "I'm okay," he replied. "I'll make it." He did, although just bare ly. Stafford got Chuck Hiller to end the inning and cling to a 3-0 lead. Then, when he returned to the bench, they put an ice pack on the shin bone and gave the white-faced Stafford a few sniffs of smell ing salts. "When I went out for the ninth inning," Stafford relat ed later, "the leg hurt like blazes. But I didn't have any doubt that what I'd finish and I simply concentrated on the hitter." It wasn't easy. The throb bing in his leg wouldn't be ignored and Stafford's pulse hammered when Willie Mays led off with a double. "I just put the pain out of my mind," big Bill said. Popped Up Cepeda Mays went down to third when Willie McCovey ground ed to Bobby Richardson and stayed there as Stafford got the second out on Orlando Cepeda's shallow fly to right. Now he needed that last big out and catcher Ed Bailey waited menacingly at the plate. Stafford uncorked his fast ball and "put it right where he wanted it." "I don't know what it was," Bailey said later. "I couldn't see anything he threw me all day." ' But Bailey cracked it into the right field stands for a home run which scored Mays ahead of him and now Staf ford was down to a slender one run lead. "I had two pitchers warm ing up but it was just a pre caution," said Manager Ralph Houk. "I asked Stafford if he could finish and he said 'yeah, you don't see any blood, do you?' " Got Lait Man So Stafford got Jim Daven port on a fly to left and thereby put the gilt edging on a career which began back there in 1952 with somebody else's line drive injury. He worked hard lo make it. "My dad was a semi-pro pitcher and slaved all his life in a brickyard," big Bill re lated. "He gets up every morn ing at 5 a.m. and it's tough work. He wanted me to have something better. So he fixed up a canvas with holes in it out in our back yard and after 1 started pitching it was his help that gave me my con trol." He had it Sunday, allowing only two hits and two walks while striking out five Giants before that line drive struck him in the eighth inning. The pain turned his face chalk while. But an eight-year-old mem ory had something to do with it. too. Football Scores S.1TIRI1AV GA1IKS Brlgham Young 28. Colorado St. 7 Portland St. 21. Oregon Coll. 6 l.inlteld 47.

Felipe Alou Finds Left Field Tough By STEVE SNIDER New York - lUPD - You'd bet ter believe it when they tell you left field in Yankee Stad ium is a tough spot to play. Ask Felipe Alou of the San Francisco Giants. "There's sun. there's haze and there are shadows." groaned Felipe, who had his first shot at it in the third tame of the World Series Sun day in a loser against the New York Yankees. "I had a rough, busy afternoon out there." But even there again to day as the Giants struggle to even the series in the fourth game because manager Al Dark is convinced Felipe "played it as well as that tield can be played. Yanks Complain Too Normally a right fielder, 1 elipe moved to left for the third game and almost imme diately got his baptism on a long ball hit in the second in ning by Eiston Howard, and which he caught sensational ly. In each of the next two in n.'ngs he had long shots in his direction - one that went for a double by Tony Kubek and another by Mickey Mantle which he caught. But he was charged with an error while trying to field a single by Mantle in the seventh. Even Tom Tresh of the Yankees complained about left field Sunday, so Felipe wasn't alone. The Giants were only slight ly downcast after losing the Ihird game, after which sec ond baseman Chuck Hiller and pitcher Billy Pierce readily shouldered the blame for lap ses that left the Yankees with p 3-2 margin at the finish.
