Old Pros Taking Charge for LA Dodgers in Hour of Great Need . SECTION B By KR D DOWN UPI Sports Writer Youth can be wonderful and the Los Angeles Dodgers have plenty but the "old men" of the team seem to have taken charge of its 19(11 destiny. These are the men who most resent the choke-up charges they have heard since the San Francisco Giants "stole" the 1962 National league pennant. Gold solid pros . . . like Wally Moon . . . Maury Wills . . . and John Roseboro. It's clearly the hour of (he Dodger's greatest need, with the St. Louis swifties coming on like gangbusters and it's these men who have answered manager Walt Alston's call forhelp.

First it was Moon driv ing in two runs in a 4-2 victory, then it was Wills with four hits in a 9-4 triumph, and Thursday night it was Roseboro with a grand slam homer and five runs batted in for a "personal 5-3 tri umph over the Pittsburgh Pi rates. Under Pressure The Dodgers started their game in Pittsburgh Thursday night under the most extreme sort of pressure. The Cardinals' 8-3 afternoon victory over the Chicago Cubs already was on the scoreboard and 16 - game win ner Bob Friend was on the mound for the Pirates. Roseboro provided the Dodger answer when he went to bat with the bases filled and two out in the first inning and connected for the second grand slam of his career to send the Dodgers off to a 4-0 lead. Roseboro singled home Moon in the third inning to make it 5-0 and Johnny Pod res protected the margin until the eighth when he needed the relief help of Ron Perranoski. The win was Podres' 13th against 10 losses. The Cardinals continued their terrific late drive behind t h e seven - hit, seven - strikeout pitching of Ernie Broglio, who scored his 16th victory. Bill White hit a two-run homer and drove in three runs and Dick Groat and Stan Musial had two hits each in the 11-hit attack. Giants Beat Mets The San Francisco Giants stopped their two - game skid with a 6-0 win over the New York Mets and the Philadelphia Phillies downed the Houston Colts, 4-1, in the only other Na tional league games. In the American league. New York de feated Kansas City, 5-2, Minne sota topped Cleveland, 3-2, and Los Angeles beat Boston, 2-0. Juan Marichal pitched a four hitter, struck out 13 and hit his first major league homer to win his 22nd game of the season for the Giants. Felipe Alou. sent the Giants in front with a homer off Tracy Stallard's first pitch of the game and Ed Bailey also homered in San Francisco's 10 hit attack. Former Dodger star Duke Snider was honored in pre-gam ceremonies, which included the introduction of mo.st of the Brooklyn stars of the 1950-57 era. He went hitless in three official trips to the plate but made a leaping one - handed catch to rob Chuck Hillcr of an extra-base hit. Hard - throwing rookie Kay Culp pitched a five - hitter and struck out seven to win his 13th game for the Phillies. Homers by Roy Sievers and Tony Tayior led the Phillies' eight-hit attack. -3 a l.INESCOKKS: National League Chicago 000 000 102 St. Louis . , 100 131 20x 8 11 2 Jackson. Elston (5) and Schaffcr.

Spokane 2 I Oklahoma City ... 1 2 Thursday's Spokane By MARTIN LADER UPI Sports Writer The New York Yankees, who handle mere mortals with ease, were to pit their magic against the mysteries of the supernatur al today. A successful conflict by t h e New Yorkers against the age old superstitions represented by a Friday the 13th would result in their fourth straight Ameri can league pennant and the 28th in their history. Their mortal opponents will be the Minnesota Twins, cur rently holding down second place, 13 games behind the Yan kees. Each club has 14 games remaining. And, as usual, the Yankees have an ace up their sleeve. Even if they lose today, they'll still have three more cracks at Minnesota over the week end to nail down the flag. Either Jim Bouton (19-6) or Al Downing (12-4) will work for New York against Twin ace Camilo Pascual (18-8). The only other team with a slim hone of catching the Yan- ikces is the Chicago-White Sox, 14 games oft tne prje in mira place. But just one Yankee win or Chicago loss would eliminate the Sox and any combination of Pel. .667 .333 Results 6. Oklahoma City 1 Juan Marichal Gains 22nd Win PITTSBURGH (UPI) - If the San Francisco Giants could pitch Juan Marichal every day they would probably win the Na tional league championship in a breeze. The Giant righthander chalk ed up his 22nd victory of the season Thursday in downing the New York Mets 6-0. He also garnered his first major league homerun in the fifth inning. Marichal struck out 13 and walked but one. His whiff total now stands at 218. The shutout was the fifth for Marichal this j Francisco into the third spot in season. 1 the National league race. Dodgers, Cards Have Toughies PHILADELPHIS (UPI) -The nennanl-seekine Dodgers take on a tough opponent tonight, but so do the ever - present St. Louis Cardinals. ; After sweeping their third straight from the floundering, Pittsburgh Pirates Thursday j night 5-2, Los Angeles meets the j fourth-place Philadelphia Phil lies in a twi-nighter the first of a four-game series in Con nie Mack stadium. The hot - breath Cardinals, still three games behind the; Dodgers, meanwhile will con-; tend with the Milwaukee Braves who have skipped past San two New York victories or Min nesota defeats would knock out the Twins. Yanks Beat A's The Yankees moved to t h e border of mathematical certain ty by whipping the Kansas City Athletics, 5-2, Thursday. Stan Williams went the distance to make his season record 8-6 and John Blanchard provided the punch with a two-run homer. Minnesota kept its faint hopes alive by edging the Cleveland Indians, 3-2, in 10 innings, and in the only other American league game the Los Angeles Angels blanked the Boston Red Sox, 2-0. The Los Angeles Dodgers re tained their three - game lead in the National league by beat ing the Pittsburgh Pirates, 5-3, after the St. Louis Cardinals knocked off the Chicago Cubs, 8-3. Elsewhere, San Francisco topped New York, 6-0, and Phil adelphia defeated Houston 4-1. Milwaukee and Cincinnati were not scheduled. Williams was in trouble twice early in the game and finished strong after yielding two runs in the fifth inning. The hard throwing right - hander gave up eight hits and struck out only three. Blanchard provided Williams with all the support he needed with his 15th home run in the fourth inning after the Yankees had scored once in the second. Moe Drabowsky (6-12) was the loser. Hall Sets Record Bob Allison's 10th inning sac rifice fly drove home the win ning run for the Twins. Earlier, Jim Hall had hit a two-run hom er for the Twins. It was his 32nd and broke the league record for most homers by a rookie. The old mark was set by Ted Wil liams of Boston in 1939. Relief pitcher Bill Daily gained h i s sixth triumph against three de feats. Don Lee pitched four-hit ball in 100-degree weather before 1,- 530 fans, the smallest crowd ev er to witness a major league ballgame in Los Angeles. It was t h e eighth victory in 18 deci sions for Lee. The Angels scored both their runs in the seventh inning on a sacrifice fly by Jim Fregosi and a Boston error. PAGES 1 to 10 MedfordsWtribuni SIPdDMTS MEDFORD, OREGON, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, 1963 SOC's Red Raiders To Engage Alumni ASHLAND - The Southern Oregon college varsity football squad and the alumni will mix under the lights Saturday night in the annual pre-season conflict at Fuller field.

Both squads have agreed on the T formation to be used throughout the game and Maurer doesn't anticipate the grads will have much trouble with the plays since most of them are coaches in schools around the area. But the grads will be up against what varsity mentor Al Akins considers to be "a good team." Akins reserves any fur ther plaudits because, as he says, "The team this year is in the building stages." Akins will depend on the 20 lettermen who will spark the Saturday eve game and also on freshman Bob Holman taking over as center and Spike Gor don, a sophomore on right end. The remaining line for the varsity include all lettermen who saw action on the Raider team last season. On nana will be Denny Ellis at left end, and Glen Moses, a two year veteran also at left end. Coming back for the sec ond year will be 200-pound Don Gott at left guard. Three year letterman Doug Olsen will be back this year and will play the slot post as left half for the varsity. The field will be completed with junior Larry Ryerson playin right guard and 225 pound Garry Reed as tackle.
