By FRED DOWN
L'PI Sporl Writer
Can Warren Spahn surpass the
National League record of 373
victories shared by Hall of Fam
ers Christy Mathewson and Grov
er Cleveland Alexander before he
hangs up his glove?
The first inclination is to say
no but the idea isn't so far
fetched after all when you con
sider that the 42-ycar-old Milwau
kee Brave left-hander reached
the 331-mark and is off to his
fastest start in five years. He
could reach the 350-mark this
year and then have another year
and a hair or two years to shoot
for a new record. .
Spahn scored the 331st victory
of his career Sunday when he
pitched the Braves to a 3-1 deci
sion over the San Francisco
Giants. That gave him a 4-1 rec
ord his best start since 1958
when he won his first five deci
sions and he even Is ahead of
that season's timetable because
he did not chalk up his fourth
win of 58 until May 4.
Spahn was cither 3-2 or 2-3 aft
cr five decisions in each of the
last four years and the dates on
which he won No. 4 in 1959
through 1962 were May 13, June
5, May 12 and May 18, respec
tively. Tapped For 11 Hits
Spahn was tapped for 11 hits
Sunday but didn't walk a batter
and was helped by two double
plays. He had a shutout until the
ninth when Felipe Alou tripled
and scored on an error and his
earned run average for this sea
son Is 1.67. Spahn himself drove
in the winning run with an
eighth-inning single and Hank
Aaron's seventh homer of the
season added a run in the ninth.
The St. Louis Cardinals downed
the Los Angeles Dodgers, 9-5, the
Houston Colts bent the Cincinnati
Reds, 3-2, the Chicago Cubs de
feated the Philadelphia Phillies,
4-1, and the Pittsburgh Pirates
shaded the New York Mcts, 3-2,
in other National League games.
In the American League, the
Kansas City Athletics beat the
Washington Senators, 6-5, the
New York Yankees shut out the
Cleveland Indians, 5-0, the Los
Angeles Angels edged out the
Baltimore Orioles, 3-2, the De
troit Tigers topped the Minneso

Fischer, who set a major

consecutive innings without issu
ing a walk between Aug. 3 and
Sept. 20, 1962, Is the chief reason
the Athletics occupy first place in
the American League today. He
has relieved six times, pitched 15
innings and allowed only eight
hits and two walks in compiling
a 4-0 won-lost record and a 1.20
earned run average.
Fischer made his sixth relief
appearance of the season Sunday
and went 2 2-3 Innings to receive
credit for the Athletics' 6-3 vie
tory over the Washington Sena
tors. He's now been the winning
pitcher in lour of the Athletics'
last seven victories. The Athlet

By LEO H. PETERSEN
I PI Sports Editor
SAO PAULO, Brazil (UPD
Uncle Sam's athletes, who have
turned the Pan-American Games
into a red, white and blue show
case, take a well-deserved day
oil today following a fantastic
weekend string of victories in
swimming and track and field
ine vann torces picked ud
three gold medals in track and
field and two in swimming Satur
day and added 19 more in vari
ous events Sunday to run their
gold medal total to 62 with a
week still remaining in the com
petition. The United States completed a
sweep of swimming honors Sun
day by winning all 6ix gold med
als at stake, four of them ir
meet record time, and the track
and field team, paced by ex-Ma
rine Dave Tork, picked up four
gold medals to muke it seven
two days with the bulk of the
track and field events yet to
come. The Yanks also won four
of seven rowing finals and added
four gold medals in shooting and
one m lencing.
Not Best Team
Before this year's competition
started American officials ore
dieted that this was not the best
team the United States could
have sent to the piwi, pnd as
a result it would not win as many
gold medals as the 1959 squad,
which won an overall total of 120.
However, the American sweep
in tnese games is reaching such
proportions that many observers
are saying the United States will
surpass the 1959 total, and well
it might. About the only disap

make as strong a showing as had
been anticipated.
But in track and field and
swimming, where the united
States hopes to do equally as
well in next years Olympic

. Six Swimming Victories
Sunday's six swimming victor
ies gave the Yanks first place in
19 out of the 20 events, exactly
the same number they won at
Chicago four years- ago en route
to that 120 gold medal grab.
Sharop Finneran, a 17-year-old
lass from Los Angeles, smashed
the women's games record for
the 400 meter freestyle with a
clocking of 4:52.7. The men's 800
meter relay team hung up a rec
ord of 8:16.9, the women's 400
meter relay team set a standard
of 4:15.7 and Nina Harmar of
Philadelphia made it a fourth
record in swimming when she
took the women's 100 meter
backstroke in 1:11.5.
In addition. Bob Webster, a
1900 Olympic champion from
Santa Ana, Calif., and Linda
Cooper, an 18-year-old from San
Bernardino, Calif., swept the
platform diving titles for the U.S.
with Webster's victory ending
Mexican domination in the event.
