rants Koufax Regains Form, Tops Reds By MILTON RICIIMAN I'I'I 8port Writer Sandy Koufax, who made such a big difference last year, is mak ing it again this year, and that difference could amount to $2J0, 000 for the elated Los Angclc: Dodgers. The San Francisco Giants , picked up approximately that sum for appearing in the J962 World Series, and the Dodgers can count on at least that much and maybe even more if they win toe Na tional League pennant this year. Baseball men generally agree tlie chief reason the Dodgers did not win last season was because Koufax was forced to the sidc- ' lines with a finger ailment in July. Sandy's record was 14-4 at the time and he never won an other game. The hard-throwing 27-year-old southpaw has a funny notion about his injury of last year. He figures he owes the Dodgers a pennant. Shuts Out Hraves Koufax paid another installment Tuesday night when nfe blanked the Milwaukee Braves, 7-0, on six hits to boost the Dodgers within one game of first place. Sandy lowered his earned run . average to 1.S1 in posting his fourth shutout and seventh vie- . tory against two losses. That puts him even slightly ahead of last year when he didn't score his seventh victory until May 30. He also had lost two games by then. Never in any real trouble Tues-I day night, Koufax struck out eight and walked two but was locked in a scoreless duel with young Denny Lcmastcr until Frank How ard unloaded his ninth homer in the seventh inning. The Dodgers then broke the game open with six more runs in the ninth off relievers Claude Raymond and Dan Schneider. A trio of hits, three walks, a double steal, a balk and an error con tributed to the damage. Reds Boat Giants . Meanwhile, the Cincinnati Reds ripped the Giants, 10-0, the St. Ixmis Cardinals scored an 8-7 vic tory over the Houston Colts In 10 innings, the Philadelphia Phils defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates, 51, and the Chicago Cubs downed the New York Mots, 5-2. In (lie American League, the first-place Baltimore Orioles won their ninth straight by beating the Red Sox walloped the New York Yankees, 11-6, the Detroit Tigers outscored the Los Angeles Angels, 3-1, the Cleveland Indians edged the Chicago White Sox, 3-2, and the Minnesota Twins topped the Washington Senators, 6-3.

Even the slowest driver in the field, Dempsey Wilson, qualified at I47.IW2, well ahead of Rodper Ward's 500-mile, record of 140 293 last year. Every pilot in the field was ex pecting a hell-bent dash from the starting gun at noon, EDT Thurs day Tlie way to run this race will be to ro just as fast as you can for just as long as you can, Johnny Boyd declared. Boyd predicted the winner would average 146 m p h bar ring accidents which would brinp out the yellow flap, slowinR the field and forcing each driver to hold his position in relation to every other car. Troy Ruttman. one of four for mer winners in the field, antici pated a speed of 147 m.p.h. might be necessary to win, if given a constant preen light for all-out charging. (ieneral secu!ation was that Jones, who set a scorching pace from his pole position last year until his brakes failed and slowed him to a seventh-place finish asain would set tlie tenor of the chase. It was believed he would settle to a pace around 14il or 150 m.p h.. unless the chargers behind him force an even (aster speed.

Wednesday, May 29, 1963 Again Field Such speeds, Marshman admit ted, would put a terrific strain on the motors and chassis of the race cars and could turn tlie race into an endurance run to prove the ability of pit crews and mechanics preparing and keeping a car running. Another speculative entry was! the pair or Lotus-Fords built by England's Colin Chapman and driven by Scotsman Jimmy Clark and Dan Gurncy. Running on reg ular gasoline and capable of much better fuel mileage than the alcohol-powered breeds, the Lotus- Ford crew publicly announced they expected to finish the 500 miles on one pit stop. Normal performance for the con - m-v I'll stops, requiring about a minute or more in this heated" competition. Forty seconds of running time could be more than enough to win the race. There was sentiment too for tlie three Novis owned by Andy Gran atclli and driven by Jim Hurtu- bise, Bobby I'nser and Art .Ma- lone. But the Novis probably will have to make at least three pit stops, and Jones strategy ap peared to be to try run enough (aster than the Lotus cars so that he could make a fast pit stop and still stav in front.

It's a long 13 years since the veteran right-hander led a young Philadelphia team to the National League pennant, and some of the old speed is gone now. But the comeback pitcher of 1962 seems determined to make the Baltimore Orioles the comeback team of i 1963. The Orioles, who finished a dis-i appointing seventh last year aft er being tabbed as a prime con tender for the American League: pennant, are taking care to make no mistakes this time around And Roberts is one of the big reasons they own a bulging 3!i game lead over the second-place New York Yankees today. Roberts, now 36 years old and relying more on craft than speed registered his fourth straight vie tory Tuesday night as Baltimore turned back the Kansas City Athletics, 4-2. It was the Orioles ninth straight win and their 14th in their last 15 games since Rob erts touched off the streak May 14. ' All In Fifth Baltimore scored all its runs in the fifth inning when John Or sino singled, moved to second on Roberts' sacrifice and scored on Luis Aparicio's double. Jerry Adair followed with an infield hit and Al Smith drove in three runs with his seventh homer.
