Pirate
Fans Aid
Ball Club
PITTSBURGH (AP)-Manafier
Danny Murtaugh would like noth
ing better than to lake a ballpark
full of Pittsburgh Pirate fans on
ttie 19-game road trip that starts
today.
But he wouldn't swap George
Witt for even that much help. Not
alter the red-haired young right
hander's pitching feat of handcuff'
ing Milwaukee last night.
"The Forbes Field crowds help
us play better ball, said Mur
taugh after the Pirates crushed
the National League - leading
Braves 10-0 before 36,867 cheering
fans. The victory moved the Pi
rates to within five games of the
Braves.
San Francisco's loss last night
gave the astounding Pirates sole
possession of second place.
The Pirates have won 16 of the
last 18 games at Forbes Field, in
cluding all six of the short home
aland which ended last night.
Pittsburgh has copped 17 of its
last 22 games and is riding a six
game winning streak, including
the two-game sweep over the
Braves.
The Pirates open the road trip
tonight against the Philadelphia
Phillies, then return to Forbes
Field Sept. 1 for an 18-day home
stand.
"We're looking at this road trip
optimistically," Danny said. "It's
going to be rough. Any road trip
is tough. A loyal crowd helps the
home club.
"If we're within striking dis
tance of the pennant when we
come back, you'll have to concede
us a chance. Nobody is surrender
ing to Milwaukee.
Witt handcuffed the Braves on
two hits just missing a no-hitter
for his sixth triumph and second
ftraight shutout. He has lost two.
"I was mixing them up pretty
even." Witt said. "Fast balls and
curves. I don't take much of a
windup. I just sort of try and step
into the pitch, it helps my control
and saves energy." -

Henry Lenz,
Midgets Set
For Mat Card
All sizes, shapes and temnera-
menls will be on hand Friday
night at the Old Armory as pro
moter buck Davidson presents a
.vrcsliing program headlined by
lour battling midgets.
Tickets for the card are on sale
at Dick Reedcr'8 Store for Men
This will be a "children's night'
card, Davidson announced this
week. Originally, all youngsters
who accompany their psrents to
the card would be admitted free
to the balcony. But Davidson has
also planned a special ringside
ticket for children priced at 71
cents. Adult ringside is $1.75. Adult
balcony tickets arc $1.25.
As usual, the midgets are ex
pected to pack the armory seating
capacity. Lverywhere these
mighty-mights of the mat game ap
pear, a large crowd is on hand.
Slated to share the spotlight
here Friday night will be midget
grapplers ' Tiny Roe, Lord Little
brook, Ivan The Terrible Russian
and Brown Panther. The four will
divide sides and meet in an hour-
long, two fall tag match. Another
15 minute warm-up bout is billed
for Lord Littlebrook and Ivan
The Terrible.
Besides the midgets, Davidson
has four of the big names in Pa
cific Northwest wrestling cirlces.
The four heavies Lugi Macera.
F.ddie Sullivan, Henry "Golden
Boy" Lenz and Martino Angelo
are also billed tor a tag team
scrap, plus a 15-minute curtain
raiser between Lenz and Macera.
All but Sullivan have appeared
here before. Lenz, with lots and
lots - of golden hair and muscles,
was one of the top druwing cards
for Mack Lillard, former promot
er. Sullivan is a fighting Irishman,
who calls Boston his home. Al
though Macera and Angelo arc
both of Italian descent, they have
different feelings toward each
other in the ring.
The team scrap pitting Macera
and Sullivan against Angelo and
Lenz should be a natural.

OCEANSIDE. Calif. tl'PI)
Heavyweight champion Floyd
Patterson appears ' sloppy" in his
sparring session at this southern
California beach resort and shop
ping center.
Floyd, 23, is either off form
from boredom with long training
or he's acting to help the gate for
Monday's title defense against un
beaten Roy Harris at Wrigley
Field in Los Angeles.
He never tried acting before.
"With two more boxing work
outs I'm sure I'll be sharp for the
fight," he told sportswriters today.
"I do feel a bit slow, but I'm get
tine faster."
Manager Cus D Amato admitted
"Yes. Flovd's had previous spells
when he didn't appear sharp, but
never like this before at a late
stage m training.
Several New York sportswriters
who had witnessed Patterson's last
impressive workout at Monticello,
N.Y., three weeks ago and then
saw him for the first time in the
West Tuesday, were surprised at
the change in his showing.
True, he was using two speedy
San Francisco light-heavyweights
during Tuesday s four rounds at
the Comrrmnity Center. But he had
worked with good sparmates in
the East. too.
Lanky Sisto Rodriguez, who has
a stand-up jabbing and hooking
style similar to that of Harris,
made the champion appear sloppy
in their two rounds. Moreover, he
landed several "sneaker" rights
on Floyd's face rights like those
Harris is grooming.
And in his two frames with
shorter Frank McCoy the champ
missed many hooks and resorted
to his old-time leaping "gazelle
punch, as he tried to spear Mc
Coy with flying rights and lefts
When he finished the workout
there was a lump on the right side
of Floyd s face.
ARMORY PATRONS
Henry "Golden Boy" Lenz,
top, and Lord Littlebrook,
bottom, will share part of
spotlight Friday night at the
Old Armory in a wrestling
card headed by midget and
heavyweight tag team bouts.
Both wrestlers hava been
here before and in the past
were top drawing cards.
Tickets are on sala at Dick
Reeder's Store for Men.
