UPI Telephoto Pacific Coast Leaders Fall To Second Place Monday By CHARLES H. WILSON JR. United Press International In the world of baseball, Mon day is traditionally an off-day re served for rest or travel. But Monday was anything but relaxing and uneventful in the Pacific Coast League. Eight teams played a total of five games and, when the dust had settled, the league's two division leaders found themselves in sec ond place. The crucial games were played at Dallas-Ft. Worth where the Spokane Indians swept a double header from the Rangers by iden tical 4-2 scores. The twin defeats, combined with Oklahoma City's 5-2 victory over Portland, dropped the Rangers behind the 80"eis in the PCL's Southern Division. And Spokcnc's two victories put U.S. Matmen Must Rally In Tourney HAELSINBORG. Sweden d'PI' The United States today faced Ihe grim task of climbing off the mat in the world Greco-Roman wrestling championships alter getting off to a disastrous start in Monday's opening matches. Three of America's 1D03 Pan American titleholders lost their first-round houts. Flyweight Andy Fitch of New York, welterweight lennis Fitzgerald, a halfback on tne University of Michigan loot hall team, and light heavyweight Jim Ferguson of San Francisco were out-pointed by European op ponents. Lightweight Ben Nnrthnip man aged a draw with H. Sincel of Switzerland in his opening match, and was held to another draw hy Denmark's Svend Skrydstrup in the second round. Featherweight Bobby Douglas of West Liberty Slate provided the Yanks with their first glimpse of victory when he decisinned Mi chele Thoma of Italy, but this success was only momentary as Douglas later Inst a second-round match to Russia's Gennady Sapu nov. Douglas suffered a rib injury acainst the Russian and was forced to drop out of the meet. Even more disheartening tn America's hopes was the loss n'. bantamweight Dave Annie of Ithaca. N Y. He was eliminated before the meet even started when he failed to make tlie 125 pound limit at the morning weigh-in. so I developed a sinker by modi fying my motion. Instead of throwing full overhand, 1 now ccme around three-quarter and the ball naturally enmes In low and sinks." The 6-foot, 4-inch, 2.10-pound right-hander's near-perfect relief 10b gave the Yankees a 7-5 vic tory over the Boston Red Sox and enabled them to 0n up a 2lj-game lead in the AL. It means that the Yankees are edg ing slighllv away from the field for the first time this season and, if you're an American League fan. you're beginning to pet a sinking feeling in your stomach. Like Drysdale's Both Williams and Yankee the Indians atop the Northern Division, a half-game ahead of Tacoma which dropped a 2-0 de cision to Hawaii. In the only non-significant game played. Bill Cowan drove in all five Salt Lake City runs in the ninth and tenth innings to give the Bees a come-from-behind. ex tra inning victory over San Diego. Seattle and Denver stuck to tra dition and enjoyed an off-day. Late-inning rallies played a role in both Spokane victories. The In dians put together a scratch hit, three walks and an error in the sixth inning of the opener for two runs and the winning margin. Spokane entered the eighth in ning of the nightcap trailing 2-1. But an error ond a triple by Dick Berardino pulled the Indians even in the eighth and Al Ferrara's bases-empty home run sparked the winning two-run rally in the ninth. Spokane's ace relief pitcher Ken Roc worked both games and pre served victories for starter Howie Red in the opener and for start er Phil Ortega In the nightcap. Carroll Hardy wielded the big bat for Oklahoma City as the surging RS'ers picked up their filth consecutive victory. Hardy had a home run, two singles and three RBI's in four trips. Perfect Night Righthander Dave Giusti, mean while, was holding Portland tn ix hits and striking out 12 bat ters. Giusti also had a perfect night at the plate with three hits and one run baited in. Hawaii put relief pitcher Hal Griggs in a starting role, and Griggs combined with Bob Duliha to blank Tacoma on just three hits. Duliha was called from the bullpen in the seventh with two nuts wlien the Giants staced tboir only threat on a single hy Tim Talton. n wild pitch and an er ror. Griggs had given the Islanders a 10 lead with a run-producing double in the second inning. Ha waii picked up an insurance run in the ninth on an error, a sacri- lice bunt and Ken Hunt's single SaH Lake City entered the ninth inning at San Diego trailing 5-2 when Cowan decided to go to work. He blasted a three-run homer to send the game into ex tra innings and then came through with a bases-loaded dou ble in the tenth inning for the margin of victor)'.

Williams (ft' manager Ralph Houk compared the big pitcher's new delivery with Don Drysdale's. Drysdalc throws full overhand but his fast ball comes in low and sinks. Wil liams claims he is getting the same result with a slightly modi fied motion. Williams made it a gala night for himself when he also deliv ered a 4UO-foot. fifth-inning triple that drove m the tie-breaking run and then scored the insurance run on Tony Kubek's third single of the game. Kubek and Clcte Buyer had three hits each, Phil Linz had four and Joe Pepitone had two to give the Yankee infield a total of 12 hits in the Yankees' 17-hit attack. Kubek and Boyer each made a brilliant play in the field and right-fielder Roger Maris made an eye-popping catch on Gary Geiger in the seventh in ning as the world champions threw up a magnificent defense behind starter Jim Bouton and Williams. The victory squared Williams' season record at 3-3 and, accord ing to Houk, was "a terrific life for him." In addition to his trou bles with AL opposition, Williams had turned in an utterly misera ble performance in the Yankees' "prestige" exhibition game with the New York Mets June 20. A's Beat Orioles Reliever John Wyatt retired Jim Gentile and Boog Powell with the tying runs aboard in the last of the ninth inning to pre serve the Kansas City Athletics' 6-4 victory over the Baltimore Orioles in the only other AL game of the day or night. Norm SieBcrn's double was the key, blow of a three-run Kansas City rally in the first inning, Jer ry Lumpe singled home a run in the third and Wayne Causey homered in the fourth. Bob John son had a single and a double for the Orioles. In the National League, the Cincinnati Reds beat the San Francisco Giants, 4-3, the Phila delphia Phillies won, 8-1, after a 2-! loss to the Pititsburgh Pirates, the Los Angeles Dodgers topped the Milwaukee Braves, 2-1, and the Houston Colts defeated the St. Louis Cardinals, 4-3, in 11 in nings. and McCabe.

ARNIE BLASTS OUT Arnold Palmer blasts out of a sand trap on Hole 16 during the playoff of the $1 10,000 Cleveland Open Golf Tournament at Orange Village, Ohio. Palmer went on to win' as he shot a four-under-par 67 and got a first priie check for $22,000. UPI Telephoto Palmer Defeats Pair For Crown CLEVELAND, Ohio (UPD-Ar- nold Palmer, with a new money record of $85,545 in the bank, to day planned a "vacation" during: which he will shoot for his third straight Rritish Open golf cham pionship. "I guess I've proved I could come back." said the guy who apparently had never been away from tlie manner in which he ripped Tony Lcma and Tommy Aaron in a playoff for the $22,000 top money in the $110,000 Cleve land Open golf championship. He was the Palmer of old as he fired a four-under-par 32-35 67, despite a nonchalant bogey on the final hole, to win by three unpressed shots and break his all- time money record of $81,448, which he set last year. Whateffir he w ins in the British Open next week will not count in the "official" money winning rec ords kept by the Professional Golfers Association. But Palmer doesn't mind, for in the last three weeks, and all of them playoffs, he has picked up $54,000. That doesn t include the $1,500 bonus he received in the U.S. Open playoff or the ap proximately $3,000 he received as his share of the gate receipts in Monday s playoff over tlie sun baked, hot and humid Beechmont Country Club course. Best All Year "From tee to green, I played the best I have all year," said Palmer, who had taken four weeks off the tour to rest after a sorry showing in the Colonial at Fort Worth. That left some people wonder ing if perhaps Arnie's innumera ble outside activities hadn't caught up with his game. I never was worried about my game all I thought I needed wasl a little rest, Palmer said. I took that rest and well, you can see what has happened." What happened was: He tied with Paul Harney in the $100,000 Thunderbird tourney three w eeks ago and beat him on the first hole of a sudden death playoff for the $25,000 first mon ey. He tied Julius Boros and Jacky Cupit for th U.S. Open champion- ship the following week, and lost to Boros in a playoff, picking up $7,000. Then he tied Lcma and Aaron and beat them in Monday's play off for that big $22,000 payoff. Plans More Tournevs After the British Open Palmer plans to compete in 5 to 10 more tournaments, but he refused to speculate on his chances of top ping the $100,000 money mark "I never go into a tournament without thinking I'm going to win it," Palmer said. "But when you have such fine young players as Lema and Aaron in there shoot ing against you, the going is tough. "I had to be at my best to beat Don Fullmer Tests Bob Horn EUGENE (UPD-Middlcweight Don Fullmer of West Jordan Utah, tests unbeaten Bobby Horn of Eugene in a 10-round middle weight fight here Wednesday night.

We roomed together when I won the Mobile Open in 1960 and you just can't believe how much he has improved since then." Lema paid tribute to Palmer "All of us who play golf for a living owe an awful lot to Ar- nie, said Lcma. He has made the game what it is for us today He brings out the crowds, and that means money. And in add! tion to being a great golfer, he's a great guy. Lema wound up with a 35-3570 and Aaron with a 37-3370. They split the second and third place money and received $8,550 each not counting their cut of the gate receipts. Hard, Two Others Gain Quarters WIMBLEDON, Eng.

Tlie Hawks had a four-game losing skein going after beating rival Tri-City last week.

It also gives him good reason to claim he's the best relief pitcher in the senior circuit.
