Roberts Ruins Peters' White Sox Orioles In By United Press International The odds against a perfect game are better than 1,000 to 1 and they're even higher tliat you'd never guess who ruined Gary Pe ters' bid (or one. The villain was rival pitcher, Robin Roberts, who bas seen a number of his own no-hitters ruined but never before had act ed as the spoiler himself. Peters, a 26-year-old southpaw for the Chicago White Sox, struck out 13 batters and did not walk any in beating the Baltimore Or ioles, 4-0. Were it not for Roberts, the kind of hitter no pitcher ever real ly worries about, Peters would have become the first man ever to hurl a perfect game in regular major league competition since 1B22 when Charlie Robertson did so for the White Sox. The only other perfect came since was inner In Sight Of Goal HONOLULU (UPI) The 72- foot ketch Ticondcroga, apparent' iy enjoying nothing but favorable winds, was expected to sail past Diamond Head today as the first finisher in the 1963 Trans-Pacific yacht race. The crew of the Ticondcroca which is under charter to Robert F. Johnson of Portland. Ore., re ported Monday night that it was out of whiskey, women, cigar ettes and water" but had land in sight. At the e a r 1 i e r roll call, the ketch was just 170 miles from the finish line in the 2,225-mile race, which began in Los Angeles on July 4. The Audacious, Baldwin M. Baldwin's 72-foot yawl out of Newport Beach, reported she was1 267 m 11 e s from Diamond Head' and making good time under a 15-knot wind. The Utile class D 40-(oot sloop Islander, owned by Thomas C. Corkett of Balboa, appeared to bo the potential winner for both the fleet and her class on a handicap. basis. She logged an impressive. 182 miles in the 24 hours pre ceding tiie roll call and stood just 512 miles from Honolulu. Australia's Astor finally found good winds and pulled to within 352 miles of the finish lino at roll call. She had logged 185 miles in 24 hours. Japan's Contessa reported her position at 512 miles from Hawaii, which indicated a day's run ot only 25 miles. Race officials said this probably was due to a mis calculation. The Novia Del Mar, 90-foot scratch boat of the fleet owned by publisher John P, Scripps of San Diego, found favorable winds for a 24-hour run of 191 miles, which put her 210 miles out of Hawaii. However, as a result of winds in the south during the early days of the race, the Scripps' boat re mained 28th in fleet handicap standings and last in her class of seven class A entries. The first three corrected time leaders all were class D boats the Islander, Tiare and Mamie. Corrected time leaders by class and their distance from Honolulu were: Class A Ticonderoga (170), Orient (320), Audacious (267). Class B Legend (387), Ichi ban (415), Khamsin (420 . Class C Mistress (473), Annie Too (473), Patronilla 41)7 ) Class D Islander (542), Tiare (570), Mamie (552), .) COOLING OFF THE EASY WAY New Zealander Bob Charles, winner of the British Open, enjoys a cooling drink and a big twimminq pool ai he attempts to cool off from the hot weather Monday in Dallas, Charles found the 94 degree heat a far cry from tha 60 degree temperatures he enjoyed at St. Anne's, England, lait week when he won the British Open. Charles will begin practice rounds for the 45th PGA Golf Tournament which itarti in Dallas Thursday. UPI-Tlephoto Blank Tilt Don Larsen's World Series mas terpiece in 1956. Can'l Beat It "No one can ever beat that." Larsen still quips. "The best any one can ever do is tie it." Peters lost his chance to even tie it when Roberts singled up the middle with two out in the third inning, after which the White Sox lefty retired the last 19 batters in order to become only the third southpaw to pitch a complete game against the Orioles this sea son. J. C. Martin assured Peters his seventh victory with two-run hom er in the fifth and Tom McCraw also connected with one on in the eighth. The blows dealt Roberts his ninth loss in 15 decisions. The Kansas City A's outlasted the first place New York Yankees, 11-10, in 12 innings, the Boston Red Sox nipped the Los Angeles Angels, 2-1, Minnesota routed Cleveland, 13-1, and Washington drubbed Detroit, 11-6. The Athletics - Yankees mura- thon went three hours and 41 min utes before Bill Stafford walked Jerry Lumpe with the bases full in the 12th to force in the win ning run. The Yanks broke an fl ail tie with three runs in the 11th but the A's came right back with three runs of their own. Ed Char les hit a pair of homers and John Blanchard connected for one. Rookie reliever Pete Lov- rich was credited with his first major league victory. Homer Settles Game Frank Malzone's 13th homer in the sixth inning pff Don Lee set tled matters between the Red Sox and Angels. The victory was Bos ton's fifth in its last seven con tests and the loss was the 12th for Los Angeles in its last 14 games. Bill Monbouquetlc brought his record to 13-6 although Dick Radatz came on in the eighth and pitched hilless ball. Dick Stigman s four-hit pitching and three homers by the Twins proved too much for the Indians. Earl Battey hit his 20th homer with one on in the second inning, Don Mincher belted a two-run homer in the third and Harmon IKlHobrew socked his 21st withL one on In the seventh. All three! homers came off Dick Donovan whose record now Is 6-6. The vie-1 tory was Stigman's eighth against nine losses. Home runs by Chuck Hinton and Bobo Osborno off Jim Pun ning of the Tigers carried the Sen ators to their ninth victory in 11 games. Don Rudolph registered his fifth victory although Ronnie Kline took over for him in the eighth following Bubbn Phillips' tnree-run homer. Marlene Hagge Wins Golf Meet ELLICOTT CITY, Md. (UPD- Marlene Bauer Hagge was speechless after winning the Sight Open golf tournament and with good reason. It was her first victory on the ladies' PGA circuit since the Hoosier State Open in Indianap olis in I960. 'It's been so long since I had the pleasure of accepting this honor that I hardly know what to say. ' Marlene giggled after shooting a 69 in the final round for a 54-hole total of 208. Mrs. Hagge started the third round, wluch was postponed by rain Sunday, with a Ihrcc-strokc lead over Kathy Whitworth, who wound up in third place with a 218 after soaruig to a 76 in her final trip over the Turf Valley Country Club course.

That fourth place playoff, if it comes to that, could be a pip in itself, particularly if one of the Nicklaus - Boros - Charles three some wins a PGA playoff.

Metier Cubs1 Gain At Gate, Still Down CHICAGO (UPI) The Chica go Cubs' 53 per cent increase in attendance so far this season mav be nood for morale, but doesn't guarantee a money mak- infl season for the team, Piesi dent Philip K. Wrigley said to day. In fact the attendance increase 171,324 for 42 dates, hasn't boost ed the Cubs' total attendance as high as it was at the same point throe seasons ago when the team finished seventh. "1 don't know whether we will mike money or not," Wrigley said. "It all depends on our team replacement cost. Really I ouldn't estimate how we II come out until we sit down with the auditors at the end of the year and see what came in and what we spent." Wriglev said that the amount of money spent in bonus players was an important factor in deter mining whether the team shows! a profit, but he also pointed out bookkeeping could have an effect too. "When you sit down with the auditors at the end of the year and decide what. can be carried over and what can be charged olf, vnu can make the books come out prettv much as you want. I remember my father used to say that 'figures don't lie. but liars figure'." Wrigley credited the Cubs sue ii-ss at the eate this vear strict ly to its improved won and lost record. The team, in the first di vision, has pulled 492.210 paid tans this season compared to 320, 886 in 42 dates last vear. But only three vears ago, for the same number of dates, the club had attendance of 544.691, and wound up pulling nearly million fans.

First he pitches a no-hitter but it's not actually a no-hit, no-run game. And then he pitches a fine four- hit shutout for the Houston Colts Monday night, but technically it won't go into the books as a shut out. "Maybe I'm just not living right," he laughed. "1 guess I'll never come closer to pitcning a shutout." Nottebart missed by only one final pitch Monday night, and even though he hurled a no-hitter two months ago, he still has not pitched a shutout in the majors. Here was the situation: The Mels had broken a 15- game losing streak with a 14-5 victory over the Colts in the opener ot a twi-nignc aounic- header. Injured Ankle Nottebart zipped through the first 8 2-3 innings of the night cap and then had two strikes on Jim Hickman with Houston lead ing, 8-0. He suddenly injured his right ankle pushing off the mound and needed help. "I couldn't throw another pitch," he said. So Hal Woodeshick came out ol the bullpen, made only one pitch a strike and it was all over with the Colts on top, 8-0. 'I'm not kicking as long as we win," said tne 27-year-oia con. righthander. The victory Monday nignt was his sixth of the season and Jirst since his no-hitter. Roger Craig dropped his 13th game in a row and his 15th ol the season wnen Colt catcher Jim Campbell tagged him for a three-run homer during a five-run first inning. Hit Grand Slam In the opener. Met pitcher Carl Willey hit a grand slam homer during a six-run second inning rally which wrapped up the con test. Elsewhere in the National League, the Phillies ended the D o d g e r s' seven game winning streak with a 5-4 victory in 11 innings, Cincinnati defeated (Mil waukee, 4-3, in 12 innings, Pitts burgh swept a pair from San Francisco, 2-1 and 4-1, and the Cubs beat the Cardinals, 2-0. Second baseman Nate Oliver's two base error on Don Demeter's pop fly followed by Bob -Oldis' single in the 11-th off Ed Roebuck produced the winning' run for the Phillies against the Dodgers. Don Drysdale started for the Dodgers but was raked for 10 hits, lnclud- ing a homer by Roy Sievers, dur ing the 4 2-3 innings he worked. Jack Baldschun was credited Humphrey Loses Bout Narrowly Grant Humphrey, Klamath Union wrestler, lost his first match against the Japanese wrestlers as the Oregon High School All-Star team began Its tour through Japan.
