    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. He lives in
a beautiful new home overlook
ing the blue Pacific but with a

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."

Rookie Sadowski Slated
Against Dodgers Tonight
LOS ANGELES (L'PD Man-;
agcr Bobby Bragan of the Mil
waukee Braves, becoming bold on
his club's pitching, tonight sends
rookie Bob Sadowski against the
Lo Angeles Dodgers with the
hope ho can come close to the
performance Sunday of youthful
Tony Cloninger.
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.
The Braves picked up four runs,
two of them unearned, off reliever
Bob Miller to eliminate any pos
sibility of the Dodgers catchini
Up in the late innings.

"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

'Huh? Oh! Yes. I paid him

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

While covering various fiehl
camps, McKinney has worked out

George Benton, Elbaum concluded.
