Bv MARTIN LAUER UPI Sports Writer There will be no premature celebrations in us Angeics un year. The Dodgers have learned their lesson. Anybody else might be digging the corkscrew into the cham pagne. The Dodgers are keep ing their bottles on ice. Los Angeles clinched at least a tie (or the National league pennant Sunday when the SI. Louis Cardinals lost to the Cin cinnati Reds, 5-2. The Dodgers could have clinched the flag by beating the Pittsburgh Pirates, Green Bay Winner in 'Big' Game By United Press International The Green Bay Packers prov ed they can win the 'big' game without Paul Hornung, but the New York Giants showed that without Y. A. Tittle they're nothing- Th. Parkers demonstrated the class of champions Sunday against the club they had to koi Hnihbine the Detroit Lions, 31-10. Rut ihe Giants, with Tittle mornselv Daring the sidelines because of a chest injury, were clobbered by the Pittsburgh Steclers, 31-0. Two of the National hootball league's old stars, one Johnny-come-lately, and one young man with great promise also proved a few points on the sec ond week end of the season. Jimmy Brown showed further that he thrives under the Cleve land Browns' new regime when he broke loose for two long runs in a 41-24 rout of the Dallas Cowboys. Old Clutch-Touch Johnnv Unilas showed his old clutch-touch when he engineer ed a 10-point last-period surge that earned the Baltimore Colts a 21-14 triumph over the ban Francisco Forty Nincrs. Billy Wade, who knocked around the league (or several seasons before winning a steady job with the Chicago Bears two years ago, pitched three touch down passes in a 28-7 win over the Minnesota Vikings. And 24-year-old Charlie John son, undoubtedly the brightest young quarterback prospect in the NFL, also threw three scor ing passes in leading (he St. Louis Cardinals to a come-from-behind 28-24 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles. Saturday night on the West Coast, the Washington Redskins trounced the Los Angeles Rams, 37-14. Thus, after two weeks of play, there are only three perfect-record (2-0) teams in the NFL Cleveland, Chicago and St. Louis. Said coach Vince Lombardi of his Packers' impressive win over Detroit: "We had played so badly in losing to the Bears last week we had to improve." Said coach George Wilson of the Lions: "It just wasn't our day." against the New York Yankees. Still there was little joy in the Los Angeles dressing room Sun day. "You never celebrate a tie," explained pitcher Don Drysdale. This was a distinct turnabout from last year's reaction after the Dodgers had clinched a tie with two days remaining in the season. They held an impromp tu celebration and then lost their final two games and the play offs. Finish at Home The Dodgers will play their last six games at home starting but instead dropped a 4-0 deci sion. The outlook is as bright as a World Series share for the Dodgers, who need win just one of their final six games to qualify for what probably will be the richest Series ever STANDINGS (Pro Hasehall) NATIONAL LEAGUE W.

They also entertain the Mets on Wednesday and Thursday nights before closing with a three-game series against the Philadelphia Phillies. Even should the Dodgers blow all six games, St. Louis still would have to take all five of its own to force a playoff. The Cardinals are at Chicago for day games on Tuesday and Wed nesday and close with a three game home series against Cin cinnati. In other National league ac tivity Sunday, the San Francisco Giants trounced New York, 13-4, the Chicago Cubs beat the Mil waukee Braves, 7-3, and in the lone night game Houston edged Philadelphia, 2-1. Ends Dodger Threat Bob Veale held the Dodgers to two hits until the ninth in ning, but needed help from El roy Face after walking two men. Jim Gilliam beat out a bunt to load the bases before Face got Tommy Davis and Frank Howard on pop flies to end the game. Cincinnati got three unearned runs in the third inning as the result of an error by Julian Javier and the Cardinals were unable to catch up against the six-hit pitching of Joe Nuxhall (14-8). Vada Pinson recorded his 200th hit of the season for the Reds, a two-run triple. Willie McCovey blasted three consecutive home runs off three different pitchers to give him the league lead in homers lor the Giants, who collected 16 hits. Bob Buhl went all the way for his 11th victory and helped his own cause by driving in three runs for the Braves. The Colts rallied for both their runs in the ninth inning, the sec ond coming home on rookie Joe Morgan s first major league hit.

SPORTS American Loop Gets Balance By United Press International The American Football league seems to be acquiring balance in the fourth year of its exist ence. After three weeks of the new season, only one team the San Diego Chargers today could claim a perfect record. And Sid Gillman's men could fall next Sunday when they en tertain the defending champion Kansas City Chiefs. Three AFL games were play ed Sunday and all produced upsets. The Boston Patriots knocked off the previously unbeaten Oak land Raiders, 20-14; the New York Jets surprised the Houston Oilers, 24-17, and the Chiefs were erased from the perfect record list when they were held to a 27-27 standoff by the Buffa lo Bills. San Diego and Denver were idle. The Patriots look over undis puted possession of first place in the Eastern Division with a 2-1 record while the Oilers (1-2), the East's perennial champs, skidded to third. San Diego (2-0) topped the Western Division. Mike Drake Overall High in Trapshoor Gold Hill Mike Drake, 14-year-old Gold Hill youth won five trophies in senior competi tion during the recent Gold Beach registered trapshoot. He is a member of the Med ford Gun club and a sophomore at Crater high school. He was the high overall in the two-day shoot with 379 out of 400. He took two first places and two seconds in addition to the special trophy. He also broke 50 straight. OSU Beavers Rally To Beat Utah 29-14 SALT LAKE CITY (UPI) -"That's the kind of a team we may be this year," Oregon State football Coach Tommy Prothro offered. He spoke after the Beavers exploded for four touchdowns in a seven - minute span to come from behind and defeat Utah 29 14 here Saturday night. A crowd of 17,381 watched the opening season intersectional game. "We scored 29 points in seven minutes and four seconds and the rest of the time we bumbled around out there," Prothro con tinued. "I would like a lot more continuity of offense." The Beavers, minus graduat ed All - America quarterback Terry Baker, trailed 14-0 in the second period. VV'illians. Frketich Tally But they tied the score at halftime at 14-14 by coming back with two touchdowns in the quarter. Fullback Bruce Williams scored on a one-yard Dlunee and end Len Frketich tallied on a 12-yard pass from quarterback Gordon Queen. Oregon State took command n the opening minute of the second half by moving 64 yards in four plays tor a toucnaown capped by a 36-yard scoring aerial from oueen to star ena Vern Burke. It was Burke's only reception of the game. Sophomore fullback Charlie Shaw rambled 67 yards for the Beavers' final touchdown in the same quarter. 'Burke made the play tnat 'got us out of the woods," Proth !ro said. "They spent a lot of time covering him but he got the long bomb." Utah s touchdowns came on a f)3-yard run by halfback Andy j Ireland in the tirst period ana a 10-yard run by fullback Allan Jacobs in the second quarter. The Redskins held a 17 - 16 edge in first downs and a 334 310 lead in total yards over the Beavers. Pascual Captures 20th AL Triumph Bv FRED DOWN L'PI Sports Writer One thing Camilo Pascual of the Minnesota Twins never ex pected to be called by friend or foe is a model of consis tency. The story of the 29 year - old Cuban right - hander's major league career is one of big tal ent hampered by a high strung temperament. But today Camilo is indeed a good example of con sistency the only 20 game winner of 1962 to repeat in 1963. Those who reached the 20 mark in 1962 but who won't make it this year include Ralph Terry, Dick Donovan and Ray Herbert in the American league and Don Drysdale, Jack San- ford, Bob Purkey and Joey Jay in the National. Pascual. 20-11 in 1962, raised his 1963 record to 20-9 Sunday when he pitched the Twins to a 6-1 triumph over the Boston Red Sox. Pascual struck out nine to lift his season mark to 193 seven short of his third straight season with 200 or more strikeouts. Killebrew Homers Red-hot Harmon Killebrew hit his fifth homer in three games and his 45th of the season and Jim Hall and George Banks also homered for the Twins. Minne sota's club total of 224 homers is second in major league history only to the 240 hit by the 1961 New York Yankees. The New York Yankees nip ped the Kansas City A's, 4-3, the Chicago White Sox edged the Detroit Tigers, 3-2, the Cleve land Indians whipped the Los Angeles Angels, 5-3 and 2-1, and the Washington Senators beat the Baltimore Orioles, 4-2, after a 6-3 loss in other American league games. Al Downing scattered nine hits and struck out six to score his 13th win for the Yankees, whose seven hit attack includ ed a two run homer by Joe Pepitone.

You've heard people say, "I know it's true, it's in the papers." The printed word has always been accepted as more honest and binding. Newspapers report facts; other media offer entertainment. Your adver tising in an atmosphere of believability is bound to induce more "want-to-buy" action than that framed in fiction or entertainment. Newspapers offer another vital element-an atmosphere of timeliness and urgency. This sense of immediacy fosters "here-and-now" sales action that no other print medium can match. If it's a question of consumer miiousc newspapers are the answer! MedfordSlWTribune
