By TIM MORIAHTY
UPI Sports Writer
When Mickey Mantle suf
fered a broken bone in lus
left foot June 5, manager
Ralph Houk of the New York
Yankees insisted "we're not
going to lay down and die."
He uttered Virtually the
same words when Koger
Muris, the other half of the
Yankees' dreaded "M & M"
combo, was knocked out of
action with a sore back nine
days ago.
Houk s grammar may have
been faulty but not his logic.
Mantle is back with the
club but it may be a few more
days before Houk writes his
name on the lineup card. Yel
during his absence the Yan
kee have won 27 ol 41 games.
With both Mantle and Maris
missing during the past week,
Houk s men have won five of
seven.
So who's dying?
The Yankees increased
their first place bulge in the
American league to B'i games
Sunday by taking a pair from
the Kansas City Athletics, 11
6 and 5-0.
The Boston Red Sox and
the Chicago White Sox re
mained In a virtual tic for sec
ond by splitting twlnbills. The
Red Sox blanked the Los
Angeles Angels, 5-0, after
suffering a 10-8 setback and
the White Sox pulled out a
3-2 victory after losing to the
Baltimore Orioles, 6-3. The
Minnesota Twins swept their
doublcheader with the Cleve
land Indians, 5-3 and 8-2, and
the Detroit at '.Washington
twinbill was rained out.
John Blanc-hard and Hector
Lopez, filling in admirably
for the "M & M" boys, hom
ered In the first game at Kan
sas City to help the Yankees
wipe out a 4-0 deficit. Al
Downing, who pitched a four
his shutout, coasted to victory
in the nightcap as Tom Trcsh
hit a pair of solo homers and
Elston Howard knocked in
three runs with a single, a
double and a homer.

Chct Nichols, with ninth-
inning relief help from Dick
Radatz, hurled a four-hitter
for the Red Sox in picking
up his first victory of the
season. In the opener, the
Angels converted seven walks
into runs to offset a grand
slam homer by Lou Clinton
and a two-run blast by Carl
Yaslrzcmski.
The White Sox earned a
split against Baltimore when
Nellie Fox singled home two
runs with two outs in the
ninth inning of the nightcap.
The Orioles won the opener
by routing Ray Herbert with
a four-run burst in the third
inning. Mike McCormick
limited the White Sox to six
hits before giving way to Stu
Miller in the eighth.
The Twins scored 11 runs
on five homers in sweeping
the Indians. Home runs by
Earl Battcy, Zoilo Versalles
and Vic Power accounted for
all of Minnesota's runs in the
opener. Don Minchcr greeted
Barry Latman with a grand
slammer in the first inning
of the nightcap and Harmon
Killebrew connected for his
20lh homer with one aboard
in the sixth.
Lon Skinner
Wins Both Ski
Boat Heats
Portland - lUPIl - Bruce Mc
Donald of Seattle took top
honors in the first annual
Portland Cup Regatta for
limited hydroplanes at Wil
lamette Park on the Willa
mette River Sunday.
McDonald, piloting the Lil
Squirt II, won both heats in
the 145-S limited inboard
hydroplane class. He toured
the football-shaped l'i-mile
course in 3:50.8 and 3:59.1.
He was awarded the Port
land Cup for coming the clos
est to the national mark for
his class.
Lon Skinner of Mcdford,
driving the Crazy Too, took
both heats in the ski boat
class. His best time was 3:25.1
in the second heat.
Dark Goes To Bat For His Auto Race Scheduled
Players In Dusting Case
Pittsburgh-d'Pll-Alvin Dark
regards the safety and wel
fare of the San Francisco
Giants so highly that he is
willing to sarifice his own
career in their behalf.
Normaly a man of even
temperament and of deep re
ligious convictions. Dark gave
vent to his indignation Sun
day, a day after Philadelphia
righthander R y n e Duren
threw dusters at Willie Mc
Covey and Willie Mays.
"The opposing pitchers are
picking our men off one" by
one and it must stop," said
Dark. "I've made repeated
protests to the umpires and
they have done nothing about
it. Well, if the umpires won't
protect our players I will
even if I'm . suspended for
life."
National League President
Warren Giles was informed
that Dark was angry about
bean balls. Giles said he
hadn't heard Dark's com
ments, remarking "this is the
first complaint I've heard this
year."
"It's a subject that's
brought up every year and I
see nothing unusual this year
and I don't think there has
been any increase in the num
ber of bean balls," Giles
added.
Dark promised retaliation
at pitchers who dust off his
players.
"I won't stand by and see
this happen," he said. "We've
not started one throwing
match and we don't intend to.
But we have a right to fight
back not by throwing at
the players on the opposing
team but at pitchers who are
throwing at our men."
Dark was ejected from the
game in Philadelphia by plate
umpire Shag Crawford Satur
day after McCovey was hit by
a Duren pitch and Mays was
sent sprawling into the dirt.
Dark ran out to protest to
Crawford.
"I asked him why he didn't
warn Duren after Mays was
put into the dirt and he told
me 'Well, that was just a
slider," Dark said.
I told him that Duren
threw a pretty hard slider and
pointed to McCovey on first.
I told him what about that
man hobbled at first and what
about one of our other men
in the hospital (Jim Ray Hart),
"Crawford then warned me
that if our pitcher throws at
Duren when he comes to bat
'you're out of the game."
"I told him he may as well
throw me out right then be
cause Duren was going down
when he came to bat. Duren
did go down hit by Billy
Pierce's first pitch in the third
inning."
Dark was ejected after
Pierce hit Duren.
