Musial, Koufax Shine As Cards, Dodgers Post Wins in National By MILTON RICIIMAN - UPI Sports Writer The Cardinals keep coming and the Dodgers keep going on the rather risky theory that lightning can't possibly strike the same race twice. Don't bet on it! First of all this isn't quite the same race the Dodgers lost last year although the growing similarity certainly hasn't es caped their attention. The Cardinals, who made it 13 out of their last 14 with a work manlike 8-0 win over the Cubs Tuesday night, keep applying the pressure but this time the Dodgers aren't buckling. They also won Tuesday night, beatine the Pirates, 4-2, on a record performance by Sandy Koufax, and their three-game lead looks far more comforting than the V,i game margin they held a year ago today. Grandpa Stan Musial and pitcher Bob Gibson were t h e Cardinal pace-makers, driving in three runs apiece while Gibson also hurled a six-hitter for his 37th triumph. Plays Four Innings The 42-year-old Musial, who became a grandfather for the first time earlier in the day, played only four innings but drove in two runs with a first inning homer off loser Glen Hob bie and another with a single in the second. Musial's homer was his 11th of the season and 474th of his career while Gibson's three-run homer in the second inning was his third of the year. Shortstop Dick Groat returned to the St. Louis lineup after mis sing five games and contributed a single and a double to up his National league leading average to .330. Koufax erased his own NL strikeout record in fanning nine Pittsburgh batters en route to his 23rd victory in 28 decisions. The classy Dodger southpaw, who set the old mark of 2fi9 strikeouts in 11, now has 276, and his 23 wins in one season also constitutes an all time record for all Dodger left-hand ers. Nap Rurkcr and Preacher Roe shared the previous mark of 22 victories in a single season. Allows Six Hits Koufax allowed six hits, in cluding Roberto Clemcnte's 16th homer in the eighth inning, but by that time the Dodgers al ready scored all four of their runs off loser Don Cardwell. They went ahead on three singles in the first inning, picked up another in the sixth on an error by third baseman Bob Bailey and Wally Moon clinched the. outcome with a two -run homer in the seventh. Cincinnati shaded Milwaukee, 4-3, New York beat San Fran cisco, 4-2, and Philadelphia de feated Houston, 6-0, in other NL contests.

That's just what the Los An geles Dodgers are doing as they go into the stretch of the Na tional league pennant race a whisker ahead of the hot-as-September St. Louis Cardinals. The Dodgers maintained their precarious three - game margin over the Redbirds Tuesday in downing the Pittsburgh Pirates 4-2. But an envious glance at the 13-game lead held by their counterparts in the other circuit, the Yankees, is enough to keep the Dodgers restless nights. Don Drysdale, 17-16, due to re join the club following treatment for a bad case of shingles in Los Angeles, got the nod for to night's game with the Bucs as the Dodgers timidly began prep arations for the World Series. Southpaw Bob Veal, 2-1, who shut out the hard - hitting Cards last week, was set to go for Pittsburgh. The Dodger management be gan printing World Series tick ets as one of the pennant con tenders authorized by Commis sioner Ford C. Frick to do so. But at the same time, the club asked fans to not ask for the tickets, which would not be put on public sale until, or unless, the pennant is clinched. BRAVES RECALL TWO MILWAUKEE (UPI) - Mac Jones, an outfielder, and Dan Schneider, a left-handed pitcher, reported to the Milwaukee Braves Tuesday. Jones and Schneider, who spent much of the season with the Braves were recalled Monday from Milwaukee's Toronto farm team of the International League.

A capacity 11,000 cheered big Sonny to the girders Tuesday night during his exhibition in the Wembley Arena, and then Sonny went to the loudspeaker and told them: "I really appreciate this. You people over here are warm and wonderful to me. Much more so than the people back home in the United States." Since his arrival last week end for the Wembley exhibition, Son ny has been treated like a hero by the press, passers-by in the street and admirers in hotel lob bies.

The Great Entertainer stars in every role (but you take the bows!) Say Seagram's and be Sure FIRST IN EIGHTH There was a "first" in the eighth at the Polo Grounds at New York City last night when three brothers appeared in a major league team's lineup at the same time. Appearing for the New York Giants against the New York Mets in the eighth inning were, from left, Jesus, Matty and Felipe Alou. Stuart, Killehrew, Engage in By TIM MORIARTY -UPI Sports Writer The race for the American league's home run hitting crown could wind up in a three man photo finish. Dick Stuart of the Boston Red Sox and those Twin terrors from Minnesota, Harmon Killehrew and Bob Allison, are taking turns battling for the lead down the homestretch. Stuart broke out of his first- place tie with Killehrew when he hit No. 38 Tuesday night off Bo Belinsky, who marked his re turn to the majors by blowing a four-run lead to the Red Sox. But the Los Angeles Angels went on to score a 6-5 victory in 10 innings. Allison, meanwhile, socked a pair of homers in Minnesota's 5-4 triumph over the Cleveland Indians to raise his season total to 35. He's the fellow Stuart may have to keep his eyes on in the stretch rather than Mllenrow, who has drawn blanks in the Twins' last five games. Rally In Ninth Belinsky, back with the An gels after a two - month hitch in Honolulu, was coasting along with a 5-1 lead when the Red Sox chased him during a four run rally In the ninth inning that tied the score. The Angels, though, bounced back to win the 10th against Boston relief ace Dick Radatz on clutch singles by Billy Moran and Lee Thomas. Both of Allison's blasts against the Indians came with a man aboard and helped the Twins wipe nut a 4-0 deficit. His first of the game came during a Home Run Battle three-run rally in the fourth to' ning and he put Minnesota ahead to slay with No. 35 in the next frame. Gerry Arrigo, a recently re called farmhand, pitched the fi nal five innings to pick up his first major league victory for the Twins, who moved into sec ond place ahead of the Chicago White Sox. Orioles Real Chicago The Baltimore Orioles edged the White Sox, 2-1, the Kansas City Athletics again delayed the New York Yankees' march to ward their fourth straight pen nant hy blanking the champs, 2-0, and the Detroit Tigers whipped the Washington Sena tors, 4-1, after dropping the STANDINGS Rv United Press International NATIONAL.

No golfer has been able to win two in a row since Ward accomplished the feat in 1955 and 1956.

Two Rounds The field, which included 200 hopefuls when they first teed it up Monday morning, will be narrowed to 16 by nightfall after today's two rounds over the long, narrow Wakonda Club course. Harris' first opponent today was Walter Stahl of Cleveland. While Harris, "driving better than I have at any time," was beating 19-year-old John McKey of Orlando, Fla., 6 and 5, in the second round Tuesday, Stahl turned back Dr. Sam Valuck of Denver, Colo., 2 and ).
