'Just Keep Swinging' CHICAGO ffl Raw-boned Hank ISauer, whose hefty 40 - ounce bat Jc carving Into baseball's hitting "records, calls himself "just a team .man who only bits to win." "What good Ss a bunch of home runs if you don't win?" Sauer re marked Wednesday after belting three in the Chicago Cubs 3-2 vic tory over the Philadelphia Mils. After the game Sauer pointed to his teammates frolicking around In a gay mood in the shower room. "Do you think if my three hom ers hadn't won the game they would be acting like that?" he asked. "Nope, out there today I only had s very few thoughts. After my first homer (in the second inning) all I thought was that it put its ahead. After the second (in the sixth) all I thought was it broke a tie and r put us ahead again. And the third Jin the eighth), well I thought It was just probably an insurance run putting us ahead 3-1. But as It turned out It was the clincher." Sauer said he has been asked a : dozen times to account for bis sen sational start in which he now leads both major leagues in runs- ' batted-in with 68, homers with 18. bits with 70 and batting average . with .352.

Except for their mutual love for baseball, Veeck. the ebullient young promotional genius, and Hornsby, the steely-eyed martinet of the dia mond, had absolutely nothing in common. It would be nearly Im possible to imagine two more op posite individuals. Both were fully aware or this when Veeck called in the great hall of fame and signed him to a three-year contract. Friends and admirers of both men shook theit heads at the time and predicted with finality that the Rajah would not finish out his first season as piiot of the Browns. , In choosing Hornsby, the grim perfectionist, to handle his team of rookies and cast-offs, veeck seemed to this writer to be making a de termined and rather noble effort to prove to his critics and the fans of St., Louis that he could cut the buffoonery and become deadly serious when It suited his needs. He knew Hornsby would be un bending, that as long as Ralah held the job he would be the absolute boss on the field and would stand for no front office interference. It took courage for a fellow such as Veeck to commit himself to a deal of that kind, and perhaps he should be given credit for the try. grounds. LF.ADKKS These four. Snn Diego, Holly wood, Onkland and Seattle, appear to be pennant contenders, based on what thev have shown with the season almost hnlf over. The Angels' loss marked the tenth lime 111 13 overtime games this year they've come out on the short end.

Jake thinks his unanimous de cision over Irish Bob Murphy Wed nesday night in one of Detroit's wildest-swinging, most-rousing 10 round fights proved he could cam paign as a light heavyweight. Jake is a former middleweight cham pion but has forsaken the lighter class. No matter who Jake fights, they love the squat little 169 pound Italian here in Detroit. A near sell out crowd of 18.008 exploded to Its toes when Jake, behind on points until then, battered Murphy with savage rights and lefts to win the ninth and tenth rounds and the decision. Murphy had a l pound advantage. For eight rounds the two slug gers traded block - busters. Jake finally solved the ex-sall-or's left-handed style and pounded two lefts to his face at two min utes of the ninth round. Jake continued the windmill at tack and won the edge from the officials. aji'iwuai ' ' ,a, at" pri''M','iri4w v wmf'i .-.y.-f y-y ''q hEwM "I -T&fiffi ROLLING OVER The hard way.
