aye's Homer Inlands bless Mets HERALD AND NEWS, Klamath Falls, Ore. Ttirtday, April 1, 11 PACE 11 Dallas-ft Portland In Worth Wild Tops Game By I'nited Presi International Portland scored three runs in the top of the 11th and still man aged to lose at Dallas in the wildest game yet of the new Pa cific Coast League campaign. The game took 5 hours and 20 minutes and did not end until early today, but it goes into the book as a mere 4 hours 30 min utes long. Fifty minutes of delay occurred when half the lights at Burnett Field went out. The lights went out for Portland in the bottom of the 12th when Dallas loaded the bases on a walk and two singles and Ron Henry singled home the winning tally. The regular contest ended 7-7 after nine innings and the Bea vers seemed f'o wrap things up with three in the 11th. But old pro Ray Jablonsky's homer sparked a three-run Ranger burst in the 11th. Bruce Swango, a busy reliever who seems to figure in just about every Dallas-Ft. Worth decision, got the win, while Bill Kirk took the loss. Jay Ward of the Rangers crashed a pair of homers and Portland's Bill Kern also lost one in the wild battle that saw a doz en pitchers touched for 33 hits. In other action Monday night. San Diego nudged Spokane 3-2 in 13 innings, Seattle slid by Okla homa City 6-5, and Salt Lake was again washed out at stormy Hono lulu. Deron Johnson did most of the damage for San Diego. He fol lowed Art Shamsky's triple with a single in the 13th after having delivered a big single during the Padres' two-run rally in the sev enth. The former USC athletic ace John Wcrhas drove in both the losers' runs. Dick Luebke, third Padre hurler, picked up the win after a nice relief job. Seattle broke a 5-5 tie at Okla homa City with a run in the top of the ninth. Archie Skecn led off with a double, took third on a sacrifice play and then went home on a long drive by R a y Shder.

Celtics Playing Without Havlicek BOSTON (LTD - The Boston Celtics, deprived by injury of out standing rookie utilitvman John Havlicek, try for a big second victory tonight in their quest for a fifth straight National Basket ball Association championship. The Celtics, despite cold shoot ing and the second period loss of the former Ohio State cornerman and guard, managed a 117-114 opening game victory over t h c Los Angeles Lakers at Boston Garden Sunday night. Another 13.909 capacity crowd was assured for tonight's game in which Boston seeks a two- ' lIClifCDiDCDC 1 1 Maple Leafs Confident Of Cup Win DETROIT (UPD Toronto Ma ple Leaf Coach Punch lmlach is playing it a little closer to the . ,!., I.-- t U..1 V.'. vi now u.m ire uu V" difficult. sim coimcrem as ins ciuu wingm resumes its bid to retain posses sion of the Stanley Cup. After suffering a 3-2 loss to the Detroit Red Wings in the third game Sunday, the Leafs, who won the regular season National Hockey League crown, hold a 2-L edge in the best-of-scven series. lmlach, who piloted his club this year to its first NHL regu lar season title since 1948 and last year coached the team to its first Stanley Cup triumph since 1951, said, "If I was the fourth place team, I'd be predicting we'd win every game in a run away." "But we're the first place club and we're expected to win so I'll let other people make the claims." he said. Asked how many games he thought the scries would go, lm lach laughed and said, "I forgot how to count." He added, "I don't really care how long it goes as long as we win the last one. lmlach said he got into the habit of making confident predic tions to help pep up the Leafs who were a losing team when he took over in 1958. "If you keep hearing and reading the same thing long enough, you start to believe it," he said. game advantage in the best-of seven final playoffs.

Havlicek. the third ranking Cel tic in terms of minutes plaved during tlie regular season, suf fered a severe left ankle sprain when he dove off the court after a loose ball in the second period ot tne opener. Last word on Havlicek was that he would definitely miss one game, probably miss two, and possibly three. That he will re turn at all, however, is a boost to Celtics chances against the challenging Lakers. Boston Coach Red Auerbach was remapping his defenses to include more attention for Laker Dick Barnctt who again joined regular point pacers Elgin Baylor and Jerry West in giving Boston fits. Without Havlicek, however, Auerbach's job was extremely C- J 'mWa p.: : 5r . - ' . , -V? " ' I; Stallard Victim Of Winning Hit , . . ' m.- -.

The odds are strictly against Ewbank, of course, but lie feels that with a few "sleepers" like Unitas, he can start a new era in the American Football League." And who can blame Wceb for hoping? The 55-year-old Ewbank, dis missed by the Colts at the close of the last National Football League season, Monday signed a Ihiec-ycar contract calling for an estimated $100,000 to serve coach, general manager and vice president of New ork s AI'L en try. At Ihe same time, Dave (Son ny) Werblin, new president of the club, announced that the nick name would be changed to Jets rhyming with Mets. The Mets and Jets jointly will occupy the new stadium now under construction on Long Island. Ewbank readily admitted that the Jets' biggest problem is play crs. I lie old regime headed by tempestuous Harry Wismer did not sign a single member of last season's college crop. 'But this club is not any worse than the Colts when I took them over (in 1954), " Ewbank insisted. Talk about a challenge. Well, this is no tougher than a lot of others I've faced. "I've scon sicker cows than this one get well," he gagged in an allusion to his Hoosicr farm- boy upbringing. The pudgy Ewbank said that in his efforts to rebuild the Jets, for this year at least he would have to rely heavily on free agents, re jeets from other pro clubs, fugi tives from Canadian football and other sicopcr-lype players. "Johnny Unitas was a free agent, you know," he reminded his listeners. Unitas was playing sandlot football for $6 a game in Pittsburgh when Ewbank signed him. With Unitas at quarterback, the Colls won Ihc NFL champion ship in 1958 and 1901). Three Holdover Managers Kerby Farrcll of the Buffalo Bisons, Larry Shcpard of the Co lumbus Jets and Ben Gcraghty of the pennant-winning Jacksonville Suns are the only holdover man agers in the league. New men on the jobs arc; Dar- roll Johnson at Rochester; Har ry Walker at Atlanta; Bob Swift at Syracuse; Rollic Hemslcy at Indianapolis; Bill Adair at Toron to; Preston Gomez at Richmond and Frank Luccliesi at Little Rock. The league Is divided into Northern and Southern divisions wilh each club listed to play a 152-game schedule. Buffalo, Ro chester, Toronto, Syracuse and Richmond comprise the Northern Division and Jacksonville, Atlan ta, Indianapolis, Little Rock and Columbus the Southern half. By TIM MORIARTY i'PI Sports Writer Tracy Stallard will always be remembered as Die pitcher who served home run No. 61 to Roger Maris in 1961. The 6-foot-7 Virginian, though. may find it harder to forget the gopher ball he tossed to Lee Maye of the Milwaukee Braves Monday. Stallard was only one strike away from nailing down the New York Mets' first victory of the vear when Mayc lined a two-run homer over the right field fence at Milwaukee to give the Braves a 4-3 triumph in Monday's only major league game. It was the sixth straight defeat for the Mets. who didn't gain their first victory last season un til their 10th game. Stallard was so stunned that he sat silently and alone in the dugout for five minutes after the game end ed before finally joining his mates in the clubhouse. The former Red Sox right-hand er deserved a better fate. He had relieved starter Al Jackson in the seventh and was set up for the win when rookie Ed Krancpool scored on a sacrifice fly m the top of the eighth to give the Mets a 3-2 lead. Stallard fanned two in the eighth and died called third strikes past dangerous Eddie Ma- lliews and Joe Torre in the ninth, Pinch swinger Mack Jones then collected the first hit off the lanky reliever, a single to center That set the stage for Mayc's winning blast. Alaye, hitless in three previous al-bats this season, unloaded his homer on a l-nnd-2 pitch that Stallard aimed at the Milwaukee outfielder's fists. However, he made it loo good and as Maye trotted the bases, Stallard trudged off the field, as though in shock. The Braves thus completed the first seven days of the campaign wilh four victories (all against the Mets) and two defeats. 1 he San Francisco Giants, Philadel phia Phillies and Pittsburgh Pi rates share the National League lead with 4-1 records. The Giants finally launch their home schedule today against the Houston Colts while the Los An geles Dodgers, who split their first six road games, entertain the Chicago Cubs tonight in their homo opener. Two secondary openers also are scheduled in the American League the Boston Red Sox en tertaining the Baltimore Orioles and the Chicago White Sox host ing Uie Kansas City Athletics. The New York Yankees, minus Maris and Mickey Mantle, meet their perennial challengers, the Detroit Tigers, for the first time at New York. Maris, recovering from a pulled muscle in his left thigh, should be back in action by tlie weekend but Mantle may miss another week with a similar muscle strain in his left side.
