I American, National Favorites Capture Opening Games; Mahaf ley, Terry Star Giants, Dodgers, Cards, Phils Win Pepitone's Debut Highly Successful Wednes.. April 10, 1I I'BRf I B Herald & News Klamath Falls By FRED DOWN ll'l Sports Writer The New York Yankees wasted no time letting American League rivals know that Ralph Terry is as good as he looked in the World Series and Joe Pepitone may be better than Joe DiMaggio predicted. Put the two factors together and they spell calamity for long suffering American Leaguers w ho are hoping t!ieir majesties will lose the pennant this year. The AL's "shirtless ones" had hoped ill Yankee pitching might be vul nerable and 2 the Yanks had out-smarted themselves by trad' ing first-baseman Bill Skowron to the Los Angeles Dodgers. But Terry and Pepitone threw plenty of cold water on those hopes Tuesday when the Yanks opened their season with an 8-2 victory over the Athletics in Kan sas City. Even the fact that the Athletics were all dolled up in their new gold and green uni forms wasn't enough to make the 30,976 hometown fans confuse the with royalty. Terry, who added two World Series victories to his 23-12 record in 1962, pitched a six-hitter and walked only one batter w hile Pep itone. making his varsity debut, led the Yankees' 13-hit attack with two homers and a double. Pepitone is the 22-year-old free swinging first-baseman who had a sensational homer-streak early in last season but who cooled off to .239 and was farmed to Richmond. His biggest booster is DiMaggio, who has assured Yankee brass that Pepitone will make the big lime this year. . Pepitone hit the first pitch of fered to him for a homer Tues day and also homered fn the eighth inning. Elston Howard got a bomer and Bobby Richardson had a triple. Terry, meanwhile, breezed seven shutout innings be fore yielding solo homers in the eighth and ninth to Bill Bryan and Chuck Essegian. The Chicago White Sox got an early dividend from their key win ter trade in toppling the Detroit Tigers, 7-5. the Los Angeles An gels beat the Boston Red Sox, 4-1, and the Cleveland Indians shaded the Minnesota Twins, 5-4. in the other American League games. Rookie Pete Ward and veteran relief pitcher Hoyt Wilhelm. ob tained in a winter deal w ith the Orioles, were the stars of the White Sox' victory. Ward hit a three-run homer in the White Sox' game-winning four-run seventh inning rally and Wilhelm protect' ed the lead with three innings of one-hit shutout relief ball. Joe Cunningham homered for the Sox and Gus Triandos homered and Rocky Colavito had three hits for Detroit. Ken McBride pitched a four hitter and struck out six for the Angels, who clobbered Bill Mon bouquette for all their runs in the fifth inning. Lee Thomas' three run homer was the big blow of ' the frame. Carl Yastrzemski had two of the Red Sox hits, includ ing a homer that accounted for their run. Woodic Held, John Romano, Max Alvis and Fred Whitfield hit (lomers to produce all the Indians' runs off 1962 20-game winner Ca milo Pascual. Jim Grant pitched seven-hitter for the Indians. raising his lifetime record against the Twins to 23-7. National League Milwaukee 010 000 001 2 7 0 Pittsburgh 000 001 101 3 10 0 Burdette.

The National Basketball Associ ation playoff game now is a one- shot affair for both clubs. For Boston, victory would mean an unprecedented eighth straight Eastern Division playoff title. For Cincinnati, an eight-point underdog in surprisingly light wagering, an upset would mean both an end of the Boston era and the arrival of a basketball team that already has exceeded by far its own fondest dreams The clubs stand at three vie lories apiece going into this sev enth playoff meeting, despite the fact that Boston whipped Cincin nati nine times in a dozen regu lar season games. Athletic Club Formed In City The Klamath Basin Athletic Association was formed during a meeting Tuesday night with the purpose In mind of aiding athletics in the Basin area, A public meeting will be set soon with all who wish to join and lend support invited.

Thursday's Games Chicago at Los Angeles, night Boston at Washington, night Detroit at Cleveland Baltimore at New Y'ork (Only games scheduled) , National League By DICK JOYCE I'PI Sports Writer All Art Mahaffey's got Is a blazing fastball and a nickel curve, according to baseball know-l it-alls, but that big hummer was good enough to get the Philadel phia Phillies off winging in the National League pennant race. 'Just let him throw that fast ball," says Phillie Manager Gene Mauch. "He doesn't need those other pitches." The Cincinnati Reds found that out for the second straight open ing day when the big righthander pitched a four-hitter and struck out 10 in a 2-1 victory Tuesday night.

Officials Meeting On "Rig" ATLANTA (UP1) - The attor neys general of Georgia and Ala bama were expected to confer to day regarding an alleged football scandal involving the state uni versities of the two states. Georgia Atty. Gen. Eugene Cook was to meet with Alabama Atty. Gen. Richmond Flowers in the state capitol. Flowers was to be accompanied by chief investi gator Joe Breck Gantt of his of fice and Alabama State Rep Homer Cornctt. Cook recently completed an in vestigation into a report that former Georgia Athletic Director Wallace Butts and Alabama Coach Paul (Bear) Bryant conspired to rig the 1962 Alabama-Georgia football game. Both Butts and Bryant have denied the accusa tion contained in a recent issue of the Saturday Evening Post and Butts has filed a $10 million libel suit against the magazine. Cook said his probe indicated that Butts gave vital Georgia team secrets to Bryant in a long distance telephone conversation nine days before the game last Sept. 22 at Birmingham, Ala., ir which .Alabama beat Georgia, 35-0. The Post article said the al leged conversation accidentally was overheard by George Bur nett, an Atlanta insurance man. A' U.S. Senate Rackets subcom mittee currently is investigating to determine if any federal gambling laws were broken, and an Ala bama legislative committee also is looking into the Post report. Commissioner Bernie Moore of the Southeastern Conference, of which Georgia and Alabama are members, said he was seeking a meeting of the conference cxecu live committee within two weeks to look into the alleged incident. the Phillies last year, suffered from a painful right shoulder dur ing spring training but his open ing night performance apparently has dispelled any of Mauch's worries. Defeat Joey Jay The Phils, long-time doormat of the senior circuit but the best team in the league for the second half of last season, defeated 21 game winner Joey Jay for the second straight year on opening day. Don Demeter's single drove in the first Phillie run in the fourth inning and the clincher came in when Gordy Coleman muffed a double play ball in the sixth. The Reds rallied in the ninth off Mahaffey when Frank Robin son singled and John Edwards doubled him home with one out. Mahaffcy then settled down, strik ing out Gene Freese and Tommy Harper. The National League champion San Francisco Giants and the Los Angeles Dodgers, rated with Cincinnati as the top contenders, for the NL flag, won their open-j ing day contests. Four home runs by Willie Mays, Orlando Cepeda, Willie McCovcy and Felipe Alou led the 1 Giants to a 9-2 victory over the Houston Colts and 25-game win ner Don Drysdale of the Dodgers at the Chicago Cubs, 5-1. Broglio Pitches Two-Hitter In other games, Ernie Broglio pitched a two-hit, 7-0 victory for the St. Louis Cardinals over the New Y'ork Mets, and Ted Sav age's two-out, pinch single paced the Pittsburgh Pirates to a 3-2 win over the Milwaukee Braves. Jack Sanford, a 24-game win ner for the Giants last season, pitched five-hit ball for five in nings before giving way to Jack Fisher, who retired all 12 Colts in order. The 90-degree heat and Sanford's base-running he hit a triple and a single, driving in three runs caused the Giant righthander to tire. The Giants raked four Houston hurlcrs for 17 hits, with sfarter Dick Farrell getting the loss, Maury Wills of the Dodgers, the NL's most valuable player in 1962, suffered an injured ankle as he tried to score in the third and had to be replaced. Drysdale spaced 11 hits and was helped by three double plays. Rookie Ken McMullen drove home two runs for the Dodgers as Larry Jackson took the loss for Chicago. Larry Burright of the Mets got the only hits off Broglio in the first and ninth innings. In be tween, the Card righthander set down 20 straight Mets. Bill White's homer and George Altman's four hits led the Cards' 14-hit attack 12 of them coming off Roger Craig. Bonus baby Bob Bailey and veteran Smoky Burgess homered for the Pirates, who beat lefty Bob Hendley. Relief ace Elroy Face picked up the victory.
