following Tuesday's 7-2 victory,
" UkJ : Tigers downed the world
champions, 4-2, behind Don Mos

completed a sweep of the two

of view, of course, is that they
I accomplished the sweep against a

two-homo run hitters were sorely
frissed against left-handers Hank

uspensiosis Warranted. Officials Agree
NEW YORK (UPD-.Most Na
tional Football League officials,
including Vince Lombard! of the
world champion Green Bay Pack
ers, today agreed that the indef
inite suspensions handed two of
the pro game's greatest stars un
belting on games were fully warranted.
Pete Hozclle, once labeled a
tool" of the pro league's club
owners, proved to be an iron-fist
ed commissioner Wednesday
when he barred Paul llornung of
the Packers, regarded as the
most versatile player in football
history, and Alex Karras, star de
fensive tackle of the Detroit
Lions.
The 37-year-old NFL commis
sioner also fined five other De
troit players $2,000 each for bet
ting on the 12 league champion
ship game and the Detroit club
was fined 54,000 for failing to
heed reports of its players' gam
bling activities.
Lombardi, coach and general
manager of the Packers, was
"shocked and hurt" when he
learned of Horr.ung's suspension
but he admitted Hozclle had no
alternative.
"There is no evidence of crim
inal intent; that is, the shaving
of points and so forth," Lombard
said. "However, there was a def
inite violation of the player con-
Ibi'ict and the constitution and by
laws of tlie league in regard to
gambling, which is punishable by
suspension."
Art Modell, president of the
Cleveland Browns, said the sus
pensions "mean that the NFL will
be stronger than ever before be
ar
cause of Rozclle's decisions. It
should serve as a strong deter
rent in the future."
Other officials who praised the
commissioner's decisions included
Jack Mara, president of the New
York Giants and George Halas,
long-time owner-coach of the Chi
cago Bears.
Coach Buddy Parker of the
Pittsburgh Steelers said he be
lieved individual National Foot
ball League coaches should show
more concern over the associa
tion players cultivate off the field
and described the suspensions as
"unfortunate.
William Clay Ford, president of
the Lions, said Hozelle's ruling
"was slow in coming and rough
when it got here." He added, "we
fcej the ruling was harsh and as

Lakers Down Celts, 119-99,
To Slice Champion's Margin
LOS ANGELES (UPD-The Los
Angeles Lakers trailed the Boston
Celtics by one game today as the
teams took a breather in the best-of-scven
National Basketball Asso
ciation (NBA) championship series.
The Lakers scored a 110-9!) vic
tory in the third game Wednes
day night, leaving the Celtics
ahead in the scries by two games
to one. Boston won the first two
games on its home court Sunday
and Tuesday.
The fourth game will be played
at the Los Angeles Sports Arena
Friday night. The game is al-i

the game. Tickets are priced at
$2.50.
Wednesday night's crowd of 15,
493 was a record basketball gath
ering for the Sports Arena. The
old mark was 15,212 set April 7
when the Lakers met the St.
Louis Hawks in a Western Divi
sion NBA playoff game.
Jerry West with considerable
assistance from teammate Elgin
Bavlor was a one-man wild
west show in Wednesday night's i
Laker victory. He topped all!
point-makers with 42 on 17 field
goals and 8 free throws.
West was a tiger on the boards
with eight rebounds and was par-1
ticularly effective in the final
quarter when the Lakers moved
into their biggest lead of the
night. The Lakers outscorcd the
Celtics, 30-19 in the final period.
Baylor had a total of 38 points
and grabbed 23 rebounds.
The Celtics' Bill Russell wnsl
held to 19 rebounds a come
down considering his 38 when the
Celtics beat the Lakers 113-100 at
Boston Tuesday night.
Sam Jones was the siege-gun
lor the Celtics. He scored 30
points on 12 field goals. Ho hit
throw line.
Laker coach Fred Schaus, hap
py about winning a crucial game
said, "I thought this was West's
best game ever in college or
in pro ball. He was all over the
place and so was Baylor
harsh."
Hornung, the NFL's player-of-
the-year in 1961 and a three-time
league scoring champion, admit
ted he made "a foolish mistake"
and said, "I just hope and pray
the suspension will be lifted after
next season."
Karras wasn't quite as gracious
in accepting his penalty.
"This is guilt by association
and innuendo," said the 250-
pound lineman, who is 28, a year
older than Hornung "Im not guil
ty and I ve done nothing to be
ashamed of."
Both suspended players said
they had no plans until 19M when
their cases will be reviewed by
Rozelle. They had hoped to con
tinue playing football elsewhere,
but officials of the American
Football League and the Canadi-
an leagues said they would honor
the NFL suspensions.
"Maybe I'll go into wrestling
for the rest of my life," said Kar
ras, who once wrestled profes
sionally as "Killer Karras."
Rozelle, who revealed he "did
much soul searching" before
handing down his sweeping sus
pensions and fines, said all seven
players involved "admitted the
betting to us."
Hornung, an All-America quar
terback at Notre Dame before he
joined the pro ranks, was specif
ically charged with making bets
on college and pro football games
through a West Coast friend from
1959 through 1961. The wagers
ranged from $100 to $500 a game.
Except for one season, in which
he won $1,500, Hornung broke ap
proximately even on his gam-
hling, Rozelle revealed.
The facts of the Karras case
are somewhat different than those
which hung Hornung. Karras was
not an .habitual gambler but he
consorted with individuals de
scribed by Detroit police as
"known hoodlums." The Lions'
tackle, though, did make at least
six significant bets on NFL
games since 1958.
One of Karras' last bets was
a $100 wager on last season's
NFL title game between the
Packers and the Giants. Five of
his teammates John Gordy,
Gary Lowe, Joe Schmidt, Wayne
Walker and Sam Williams bet
$50 on the same contest.
They all won their bets they
bet correctly on the Packers but
they wound up paying stiff penal
ties. -

GREEN BAY, Wis. (UPI)
They called him the crown
prince of title town."
But he may not be back any
more.
Paul Hornung, the "golden
boy" of the world champion
Green Bay Packers, is through
in the National Football League
for at least a year. He is through
m the American and Lanacuan
football leagues for at least the
same period. He may be through
n football and through in
Green Bay, the little big town
where he was king.
How could he do it to us?"
moaned a comely young Green
Bay stenographer Wednesday
night. "He had everything to win
and we were rooting for him."
'All the kids had faith in him.
They wanted to be just like him.
Now, I don't know," said ware
houseman and part-time youth
worker Roger van Beaver.
"I am shocked and hurt," Vince
Lombardi, Packer coach and gen
eral manager, said.
'I hate to see a good guy like1
him get fouled up," star Packer,
end Jerry Kramer said.
May The Blues
At "Secd's" Bar, where Hor
nung often sang with the trio,
making up his own words as he
went along, they played only
blues Wednesday night. .
In the Lyric Lounge, another
favorite Hornung hangout, the
community sing boomed out,
"Who's Sorry Now," and "When
Irish Eyes Are Smiling." Hor
nung used to be the quarterback
of a college football team known
as the Fighting Irish.
"Everybody bets once in a while
don't they?" asked one patron.
This is the way it was Wednes
day night in this city of 62,
smallest in the NFL, to which
Hornung, Lombardi and the rest
of the Packers brought back grid
iron triumphs Green Bay had al
most forgotten.
The Packers would go on with
out him.
But teammates and townsmen
were shocked and worried.
Hornung big, blond, curly-
haired, goodlooking, friendly, ex
trovert a guy whose Irish charm
was always able to calm bellige
rent barflies was already being
missed in "title town."
Green Bay fans would miss the
sleek white Cadillac convertible
and the white Thunderbird sports
car he tooled through the streets.
They ufluld miss the pretty girlsl
who followed the zo-year-oia Dacn
elor about.
Has Playboy Reputation
Hornung had a reputation as a
football playboy, some of it earned
and some of it exaggerated. But
or the gridiron he was all pro.
He joined the Packers in 19o7
after winning the Heisman Trophy
as a Notre Dame quarterback and
starring in the East-West Shrine
Game at San Francisco. That San
Francisco appearance was even-i
tually to lead to his downfall. It
was there, according to NFL Com
missioner Pete Rozelle, he met
the West Coast businessman with
whom he began placing bets on
games in the 1959 season.
Hornung got the news of his!
downfall Wednesday on the golf
course at Louisville. His attorney,
Chris Duvall, said "Paul has gone
to pieces over this."
Tile "golden boy said, I made
a terrible mistake. I realize this
now. I am truly sorry. What else
is there to say?"
muia have the Milwaukee Braves
laughing it up like the glory years
of 1957 and 1958.
The new manager is Bobby
Bragan and the old formula to let
Lew Burdette and Warren Spahn
handle the bulk of the pitching
and Hank Aaron and Ed Math
ews take care of most of the hit
ting. It's a formula that paid off
in National League pennants in'
1957 and 1958 although it was as
interesting as stale beer the last
few years. ,
They say Bragan doesn't have
an outfield and lacks pitching
depth tut Bobby says he'll get by
if the old-timers get ome occa-
sional help and the Bravesi
have a six-game winning streak
today to prove that it isn't one;
of pixie-like Bobs jokes. The

Wednesday night when they
beat the Philadelphia Phillies 6-5
behind Lew Burdette who needed
help in the ninth from reliever
Claude Raymond.
Burdette's win marked the sec
ond straight time he has followed
Spahn with a triumph. The pitch
ing heroes of 1957 and '58 have
scored four of the Braves' six vic
tories so far this year.
The Braves took over first place
