That's been manager Ralph Houk's policy since he became manager of the New York Yan kces in 1961 and it has paid off dramatically in the cases of pitcher Jim Bouton and first baseman Joe Pepitone. The ultimate payoff, barring a spectacular uprising by some American League contender, looks like a romp to Houk's third straight pennant. In May, 1962, Houk was faced with a choice between veteran Robin Roberts and Bouton. He decided in favor of Bouton. And last winter Houk approved the three evening. Jim Schandcvel right-handed his way to victory for Salt Lake City, 4-2 over Sealtle. He gave up eight hils but kept them scattered, Larry Foster took the loss but Went the distance. (Seattle took a 1-0 lead in the ociiing frame but the Bees ma neuvered ahead in the third on two walks, a single and an error. They were never topped. Grba pitched his farewell game for Hawaii in convincing fashion. He kept 13 hits scattered and moved the Islanders in front to stay in the 4th with a two-run home run. Grba was recalled, along with three others, by the Los Angeles Angels after t h c game. Denny Ribant, the first of four Bear hurlcrs, was charged with the loss.

(UPI l - Floyd Patterson will shadow-box in liis dressing room next Mon day night and come out "red hot" for his return heavyweight title light with champion Sonny Liston at the Las Vegas Conven tion Center. He'll shadow-box four rounds after I wake him up from his dressing-room nap co-trainer Buster Watson said today. "He go Into that ring red hot instead of cold fish like he was at Chicago." Watson of New York, long-time buddy of the ex-champion, said Floyd was caught "cold" by big honny at Chicago, Sept. 25, and knocked out at 2:(X of tlx first round because he had taken only about 30 or 40 seconds of light exercise in the dressing room. Meanwhile Liston, in his final sparring session at Ihe Thundc bird Hotel, appeared so impres sive In three rounds with medio cre Foneda Cox of St. 1niis, that Billy Conn of Pittsburgh, (ormer light heavyweight champion and heavywcigjit challenger, pre uicien: Liston will knock out Palter son in ine ursi round again1 mayne quicker than at Chicago Hut when asked how Liston would have fared witli cx-chamn ,ioe i-ouis wncn Bomber Joe was champion, Conn said: "Louis would have knocked his brains nut, Louis was too fast with hi: bands fur Sonny." In very light wagering. Liston continued the 41 favorite. DALLAS (UPI I - Arnold Pal mer, noted for his charging on the fairways, changed his tactics today as he began his bid for the PGA, the only major golf cham-i pionship he never has won. Due to' tee off at 1:08 p.m. (CST) when the searing Texas heat is usually at its blistering worst, Palmer planned three changes in his game. Because he has been driving poorly he is going to try his No. 1 iron and his No. 3 wood off the tee whenever possible: because of the heat he is going to walk slowly belwccn shots, and be ause of the big greens on the DAC Country Club course he planned on lagging his pulls. Must Be Careful "You are going to have to be archil on the greens here or you are going to wind up with a lot f three-putt greens," Palmer predicted, "So wlicn I leave my self long putts, I n going to con cenlrate on lagging the first putt up there in the hope I'll leave myself a short second." As for giving up on his driver he hoped that his one iron and three wood would give him more accuracy. 'You are going to get hurt here if you don't keep your drives, on the fairway because of the Heavy rough, he said. This is Palmer's sixth try for the PGA title. The closest he has come was in 1961 when he tied for fifth. Many Good Bets Palmer, U. S. 0en champion Julius Boros, Masters champion Jack Nicklaus and the PGA de fending titleholdcr, Gary Player, were rated as the players to beat in this 45th annual tournament (or the nation's golf professionals But at least a dozen others in the 167-man field were rated as good bels including big George Bayer, Tony Lema, Mike Sou chak, Don January, Phil Rodd ers, British Open champion Bob Charles and Bo Winningcr. Except for the heavy rough on the 7.046-yard course with its par of 36-35-71, the golfers found the DAC layout to their liking. dropped the pennant-hopeful Twins Vfi games behind the front running world champions.

Ron Hansen hit a two-run hom er and Jim Landis had three hits! to lead a 14-hit White Sox attack that enabled Dave DeBusscherc to win his first big league game Hoyt Wilhelm shut out the Sena tors for the last two innings to preserve the rookie s win. Hit Grand Slammer Gus Triandos' sixth grand slam homer of his career was the big blow for the Tigers as Hank Aguirre pitched a five-hitter for his eighth triumph. Steve Barber was tagged for three runs and seven hits in five innings and suf fered his seventh defeat against 12 victories. Charlie Lau's three-run homer in the first inning and George Alusik's grand slammer in the eighth paved the way for Kansas City's Dave Segui to win his fifth game with the ninth-inning relief aid of Johnny Wyatt. Dick Stuart had two hits for the Red Sox. By FRED DOWN UPI Sport Writer The Los Angeles Dodgers are operating on the theory that a hero a day will keep the con tenders away. Sandy Koufax, Johnny Podres, Maury Wills, Tommy Davis they've all taken their turns in the spotlight as the Dodgers have increased their National League lead to 64 games and their won lost percentage to .620. And when they're not tearing up the peapatch, it seems that there's always somebody else somebody like Ron Fairly or Ron Perranoski. Fairly, who's been with the Dodgers since 1960 but rarely gets any publicity, and Perranoski, who's been with them since 1961 and is only beginning to get some, combined Wednesday night to enable the Dodgers to down the Pittsburgh Pirates, 3-2. The Dodgers have now won nine of their last 11 games and 14 of their last 17. Fairly Led Attack Fairly drove in two runs with a second-inning homer and a fourth inning double and then Perranoski went to Bob Miller's rescue in a seventh-inning jam and shut out the Pirates with two hits the rest of the way. Miller received credit for his seventh win while Vern Law lost his fourth game. The big Dodger drive has the other contenders gasping for breath especially the San Fran cisco Giants, whose 9-7, llth-in- ning loss to the New York Mets Wednesday night was their eighth in 10 games. The St. Louis Cardinals defeat ed the Cincinnati Reds, 3-1, the Milwaukee Braves beat the Chi cago Cubs, 6-4, in 12 innings and the Philadelphia Phillies scored a 10-9. lOth-inning win over the Houston Colts in other NL games. Alston Was Ejected Dodgers manager Walt Alston experienced one of his rare ejec tions when he protested umpire Ed Sudol's safe call at first base on a potential double play that would have taken Perranoski out Metler's Cops Title Editor's Note: It was learned late Thursday morning that Metier Brothers won the East ern Division of the South Sub urban Babe Ruth League. The East division finished In a three-way tie with Metier Brothers, Town and Country and Liston Air Craft. Metier Brothers won the toss of Ihe coin for the title.

Willie McCovey hit his llth homer of the month five short of the NL record for a month and his 2!)th of the season while Jesse Con der and Christopher homered for the Mets.
