LOSE TO BEARCATS
Louisville, Ky.-IIM-Cincin-
nati advanced to within one
victory of an unprecedented
third straight N. C. A. A.
basketball championship
when it routed Oregon State,
80-46, Friday night while
Loyola 111. downed Duke, 94
75, to reach last night's title
round.
The hard-working Beavers
never got in front of Cincin
nati, but for one brief mo
ment as the second half open
ed they moved within a single
point and gave the tourna
ment crowd of 19,153 at Free
dom Hall short-lived reason
to think an upset was in the
making.
Leading only, 30-27 at in
termission nationally - first-
ranked Cincinnati threw the
ball away as the second half
opened and Frank Peters
scored on a layup for Oregon
State.
Then the Beavers missed
their big chance. In the next
six minuies oi piay, Cincin
nati packed up 16 consecutive
points, nine of them on free
throws, and the last two on a
dunk shot by center George
Wilson that made it 46-29.
Oregon State survived as
long as it did only because
seven foot center Mel Counts
scored 20 points before he
fouled out with 9:45 to play.
Wilson's two free throws
made the score 56-36 and the
rest of the game was a sham
bles. Wilson wound up with 24
points, and Ron Bonham and
Tom Thacker had 14 each for
Cincinnati as Ed Juckcr emp
tied his bench with seven
minutes remaining.

On Trades To Earn
4th Place Finish
Editor'i note: This is the
sixth oi 20 dispatches on
the 1963 piospects of the
major league clubs.
By SCOTT BAILLIE
UPI Sports Writer
Scottsdale, Ariz. - (UPS -Don't
go away, folks. The
Boston Red Sox, fighting to
keep attendance from getting
any worse, are rushing a new
production tentatively named
"new deals of 1963:"
Last season, the turnouts at
Fenway Park dived to a post
war low while the Rod Sox
wound up in a seventh-place
tie with Baltimore, A total
of 733,080 paid to watch the
Sox' home games, or 117,509
less than the 1061 season.
And as Ed Bailey, San Fran
cisco Giants' catcher, says
of the national pastime, "we're
all in this thing to make mon
ey."
So Vice President and Gen
eral Manager Mike Higgins
of the Red Sox got busy this
winter and brought in five
new players while handing six
former Bosox their transfers.
The swaps centered around
building up a right - handed
lineup with power. Key men
who were acquired are first
baseman Dick Stuart and left
fielder Roman Mejias.
"We haven't had a person
on this club in the past s i x
or seven years who has hit
more than 25 home runs,"
says Johnny Pesky, who took
over the managerial reins
from Higgins and is making
his debut as a big league pi
lot. We had to have some
right-handed power."
Hopes On Stuart
Stuart, who had an unhap
py 1962 at Pittsburgh where
his average slipped to .228
while he hit 16 homers, is
rated as the best bet to re
store the glory days of such
other Boston crashers as Ted
Williams, Vern Stephens and
Jimmy Fox.
Williams has tabbed Stu
art as a potential hitter of 40
homo runs in Fenway Park
where the fence running from
left-cenlerficld is a good tar
get for the right-handers.
And Mejias checks in from
Houston where ho won vir
tually all the team's batting
honors. He paced the Colt
hitlers with a .288 average
and led in home runs with
24 and RBI with 76.
But a lot of people had to
go in order to bring in this
pair along with pitcher Jack
Lamabe from Pittsburgh, util
ity man Felix Mantilla from
the New York Mcts and Dick
Williams, another good all
purpose man, from Houston.
Trades Costly
Stuart and Lambe cost the
Red Sox pitcher Don Svhwall
and catcher Jim Pagliaroni.
Pete Runnels, who won his
second American league bat
ting title for Boston last year,
went to the Colts in exchange
for Mejias. Pumpsio Green, a
vital utility man. Was sent to
the New York Mcts along with
pitcher Tracy Stallard In the
deal for Mantilla. And Hous
ton acquired Carroll Hardy
while parting with Williams.
It was one of the most ac
tive trading years for Boston
since the days of general man
ager Eddie Collins. But will
it pay off?
"We hope for a first divi
sion finish," Pesky says. "No
body expects to win a pen
nant, you never know. We
certainly won't roll over and
play dead."
Aside from Stuart replacing
Runnels at first base, the in
field is the same as last sea
son's. Frank Malzone, a top
third baseman, is at that bag
again; Eddie Bressoud, the
Red Sox most valuable play
er of 1962 in press box bal
loting, returns to shortstop;
and at second base is Chuck
Schilling, who broke his
wrist last season just as he
was starting to hit.
Outfield Set
Carl Yastrzemski, who at
limes could be the only left
handed batter in the order,
has been shifted from left field
to center. He will be flanked
by Mejias in left and Lu Clin
ton in right. Clinton batted
.294 last season, hitting at a
.326 pace after breaking in
regularly on June 20.
The established starting
right - handers among the
pitchers are Gene Conley (15
14), Bill Monbouquette (15-13),
and Earl Wilson (12-8). Conley
had his best season in baseball
last year but is a question
mark as he will be checking
in late from the New York
Knickerbockers and has twist
ed his ankle in pro basketball.
The relief pitching features
right handcr Dick R a d a t z
whose 9-6 mark and 16 saves
made him the American
league's top fireman last sea
son. Arnie Earlcy (4-5) is Pes
ky's left - handed reliever,
Another right - hander in the
bullpen is Mike Fornieles (3-6)
who is seeking a comeback
from his poorest season.
There is a problem in the
catching department. Russ
Nixon, a solid veteran, is hurt
a lot. Bob Tillman, a .229 bat
ter last year, has troubles of
his own hitting a curve. Pes
ky thinks that Archie Skeen
whom he managed at Seattle
last year, might take over one
of the catching posts.
me Red Sox are thinking
in terms of a fourth - place
finish but may have to settle
for less.
