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

the former Ohio State cornerman
and guard, managed a 117-114
opening game victory over t h c

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

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

The "new" International

new managers and plenty of
cheery thoughts about 1963.
'Our league is now in perfect

Tommy Richardson, "lm con

the following schedule: Columbus

In secondary openers on Thurs

With the new franchises and
solid working agreements with

NEW YORK (UPI) - Buslling
Wecb Ewbank, new boss of the
New York Jets (nee Titans), to
day began a search for another
lohnny Unitas to help him beat
Ihc five-year championship time
table he once wrote for the Bal
timore Colts.
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

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

the Mets) and two defeats. 1 he
