Former Football Star Happy To Let Daughters Claim Spot By HAL WOOD I'PI Sports Writer PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. (LTD Krankie Albert, at one time the scrappiest little quarterback ever to kick a National Football League foe m the face, lives the lile of a gentleman these days deep in Del Monte Forest. "And I have no desire to get back into football," says Frankie. "I'm more proud of the achieve ments of my three daughters than of anything 1 ever did." Albert, still a young man in his mid-forties, is a real estate sales man for Del Monte Properties, with a good business.

By I'nilrd Press International If you want' to know how it feels to come close, talk to Ron Herr. The 23-ycar-old Yakima right hander pitched eight and two thirds innings of no-hit ball Sun day night as he led the Bears to a 4-1 victory over the Tri-City Angels in a Northwest League baseball game. He had a count of no balls and two strikes on Ernie Foli with two out in the ninth when Foli lined a single to center, ruining the bid for a no-hitter. Brown Taylor followed Foli to the plate and singled to right and Charlie Strange was safe on an error, al lowing the Angels' only run to score. In other games Sunday, Wen atchee downed Lewiston 12-7 and Salem beat Eugene 4-0 and 5-3 in a doublcheader. Lewiston couldn't care less about the loss because it clinched the first half championship Satur day night. Second half play starts Tuesday. The B r o n c s play a make-up game with Tri-City to night but that one won't make any difference in the first-half cham pionship picture. Herr struck out seven and walk ed three in his near miss effort. Dave Eilers came to the mound for Yakima afler'the Tri-City run scored and he struck out Dave Mann to end the game. Herr was within one strike of becoming the second man in Northwest League history to pitch a nine-inning no-hitter. Matt Gay eski managed the feat last year when he held Wenatchee hitlcss while pitching for Eugene. Nine pitchers have recorded seven-in ning no-hitters. swimming pool in his front yard. Daughters And Tennis His daughter Janie, 17, is the national junior tennis champion: daughter Nancy is a student at Stanford and 10-year-old daughter Terry is heading for greatness, too, on the tennis court. Albert played tennis for awhile or until his daughter started hipping him. Then he went back to his left-handed golf, where he has a 10 handicap and plays well enough to win a buck or two on the golf course. "If I had it to do over again," he says, "I think I would have stayed in the football game a lit tle longer as a player. I quit u lien I w as only 32 years old. But such men as Y. A. Tittle and oth ers still go strong when they arc past the 35 mark." No Bench-Sitter A proud competitor, Albert saw that Tittle was being used more and more at quarterback when they were both with the San Francisco Forty Niners and he couldn't stand the thought of sit ting on the bench. So he "rc-tired"-ronly to show up a year later playing in the Canadian League. He followed that by becoming coach of tile Forty Niners. "But 1 was too emotional a guy to coach," he says. "I'd love to think I cou'j handle the emo tional phases of coaching. 1 love the association with people, the players, the press, etc. But it's too up-and-down a business." Family Abused Albert couldn't stand the abuse his family took when he lost a game as a coach. ' "But it got where we couldn't even vacation in this country, " he says. "One year we had to go to the Caribbean and another year to Acapulco for our vacations so we could get away from talking football. "If I were a bachelor, knowing my love lor the game, I'd prob ably be in it yet. I've found most of my success and friends in the game. But it is a more normal life to be in some other business."

The 22-vcar-old Cloninger pitch ed a masterful two-hitter and the Braves capitalized on his mound performance to score a 7-0 vic tory over the Dodgers, tlieir sec ond shutout in three games. Although Cloningcr's pitching performance was the story of the game, and even manager Walt Al ston praised his work, the Dodger skipper candidly said his club made enough mistakes to lose two or three games. 'That was the best game I've ever pitched." Cloninger said as he received the congratulations of his teammates. "I mostly threw fast balls and they seemed to work. It was tlie second consecutive shutout Cloninccr has hurled, hav ing blanked Houston 4-0 in his previous start to run his string of scoreless innings to 1!). And it was liis third consecutive victory to make his record 4-4 for the sea son thus far. Only 27 men officially went to the plate against Cloninger al though he faced 28, hitting Jim Gilliam with a pitched ball in the seventh inning. Gilliam in the first inning also singled off Clon inger and Ron Fairly got the only other hit, a single in the eighth but both were erased by double plays. The Braves went to work early on Dodger starter Nick Willhite with Hank Aaron leading tile li bit attack with a homer in the first inning, his 22nd of the sea son. Willhite also gave up a third inning homer to Roy McMillan and Cloninger singled in Gene Oliver in the sixth inning after the first baseman had doubled and ad vanced to third on a grounder.

He weighed 167 pounds to Green's 163. "And I would say," continued Elbaum, "McKinney should have at leist 10 good fighting years lelt-on the basis of the Archie Moore and Sugar Ray Robinson careers. ; -: Was Bobo properly remunerat ed for his initial effort as a mone tary mauler? 'Huh? Oh! Yes. I paid him $40," said Elbaum. "It wan onlv four-rounder he was in.: -vou know. It was not the main event a 10-rounder. But I will pay him more next time. He is a very exciting fighter to watch an all out slugger. And I want him back again." While covering various fiehl camps, McKinney has worked out witn such notables as heavy ton and middleweight contender George Benton, Elbaum concluded.
