White Sox 0 Spahn Sets Mark, B eats LA Dodgers Lopez Says Yanks Can Be Beat Yet By United Press International There's a fellow in Chicago who says the Yankees can still be overtaken. His name is Al Lopez, his White Sox have won 15 of their last 20 games and his feeling is "a lot of things can happen in .seven weeks." Something happened Tuesday night that made Lopei even more optimistic. One of tiis rookie pitchers, Dave DeBusschere, hurled his first complete game in the majors and his first shut out in heating tlte Cleveland In dians, 3-0. The victory boosted the second- place White Sox 8'i games be hind the rained-out Yankees and ' although that still leaves a lot of hay to be mown, Lopez re fuses to concede. Still A Chance "We still have a chance," he Insists. "The Yankees have good ball club but they're not1 infallible. I remember a Dodger club that had a 13-game lead and lost." DeBusschere heightened Lopez' hopes with a sleady six-hit effort that earned him his third vic tory against four losses. The White Sox collected only five hits off loser Jim (Mudcal) Grant and Early Wynn. Nellie Fox had a double and two singles, driving in one run and scoring another. In other American League ac tion, Baltimore mauled Minne sola, 6-1, Kansas City downed Ve- troit, 4-2, and Los Angeles nipped Washington, 4-2. Kain washed out the Yankees-Bed Sox contest.

Reliever Ted Bowsfield was credited with his fifth win aginst six losses. The Angels ended a seven-game losing streak with their victory over the Senators.

Bills Get Miller, Lose Back By United Press International The Buffalo Bills completed an unusual trade Tuesday in which they acquired an offensive end but lost a defensive counterpart. The first half of the trade was accomplished in orthodox fashion as the Bills obtained flanker Bill Miller from the Kansas City Chiefs but the deal was equalized when Jim Moss, a rookie stand out from South Carolina, was im mobilized by a broken ankle in a team scrimmage. Miller, a former All-America at Miami now in his second year in the American Football League, caught 23 passes for the chiefs last season as a flanker back but will be used as a split end in the Bills' alignment. Moss probably will remain in drydock for the entire season. The Denver Broncos, swamped with a surplus of 57 players, axed seven, including former Wisconsin All-America quarterback Ron Mil-i ler. In addition to Miller, who saw limited service with the Los Angeles Rams last year, others receiving pink slips were Bob Mcrenda, Winston Freeman, Tom Gates, Sam Smith, Charlie Tid well and Ray Pinion, all rookies.. The Chiefs also did some house cleaning, slicing their squad to 44 with the release of Sam Leo nard, a rookie defensive end from Wiley College (Tex.), while the New York Jets moved in the opposite direction when coach Wceb Ewbank added two players from the Baltimore Colts half back Bob Clemens and tackle Winston Hill. . : The Detroit Lions sold rookie Karl Kassulke to Minnesota, and the Baltimore Colts reduced their! squad to 48 by asking waivers on guard Bill Kirchiro and offen sive end Dee Mackey. Medo-Bel To Battle Weed The Klamath Falls Medo-Bels, recent winners of the Northern California League in a stirring comeback after losing their first two games, will take on Weed, the second place team, tonight at 8 o'clock in Gem Stadium in a benefit game to help raise funds to send the team to BellinghamJ Wash., (or the Pacific Northwest Semi-Pro Tournament. The Medo-Bels will be playing their first game in the tourna ment Friday at 12 noon against the Pasco, Wash., team. The win ner of this Northwest Tourna ment will gain a berth in the National Baseball Congress Semi Pro Tournament in Wichita, Kan., later. The Medo-Bels are playing Weed tonight in order to help defray costs to the Washington tournament. The Klamath Basin Babe Ruth team will be on hand tonight before the game in salute to them and a goodbye before their departure Thursday morning at 7 o'clock. This is the first year for a Klamath semi-pro team to get into the Pacific Northwest tour nament and a shot at the Na tional tournament. Hi Hatfield, president of the state semi-pro league, said that he feels the Medo-Bels have a good chance and hopes that people will come out and see the game tonight to help the team to Washington. This should be a tough game with Weed. The probable starter for the Medo-Bels is KU High School baseball coach Bill Mans field. Tony Sellari will be be hind the plate, Dean Dunson at first, Blake Griggs at second, Ron Owings at third, Sherm Al len at short, Don Gresdel in left field, John Bianchi in center and Ray Taylor in right. Lefty Lifetime Strikeout Record By Brave Southpaw SIGN COLLEGE STAR NEW YORK (UPI) - The New York Knickerbockers have signed! Bill O Connor of Canisius to a contract for the 1963-64 National Basketball Association season. By United Press International Warren Spahn did it again simply to satisfy tne sticklers ana keep them from claiming he was lousing up the record book. The 42-year-old Milwaukee southpaw settled a two-eek-long debate Tuesday night Wien he oi ficially became the al'.-time left- handed strikeout king of the ma jor leagues with a career total of 2,383. Spahn achieved the milestone by striking out tive batters in a 4-3 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers that represented his 14th triumph of the season and the 341st of his career. In a manner of speaking, Spahn had been walking around with an asterisk since July 29 when he, fanned five Cincinnati batters and brought his strikeout total to 2,378. Some said that total made him the new all-time left-handed strikeout king, but others said it didn't. Rube Waddell, former southpaw for the Philadelphia A's, was the cause of the argument. Two sep arate record books listed Wad- dell's strikeout total at 2,375: Other books listed his total as 2,381. Spahn took care of all the books Tuesday night, however, when he got losing pitcher Bob Miller on called third strike in the sev enth inning lor the 2,382nd strike out of his career. His final strike out victim was pinch hitter Al Ferrara, who ended the game. Idle Two Weeks An attack of tendonitis had kept Spahn idle since that July 29 con test and in his first game back Tuesday night he scattered nine hits. The Braves nicked Dodger starter Johnny Podres for three runs in -the first inning and1 Denis Menke's sacrifice fly m the eighth inning produced the winning run after Los Angeles had tied the score. Despite the defeat, the Dodgers retained their four-game lead when Cincinnati blanked second place San Francisco, 4-0. St. Louis beat Houston, 4-2, in the only other National League con test. Rain washed out the Pitts bureh-New York game. Jim Maloney won his 18th for the Reds with a two-hitter against the Giants. Frank Robinson hit his 17th homer with one on and Vada Pinson his 13th with a man H. Jerome Preparing Comeback EUGENE UPI ) Star sprinter Harry Jerome of Canada is work ing himself back into shape while recovering from a serious leg in jury suffered last year, University of Oregon track Coach Bill Bow erman said today. Bowerman said that Jerome, who will be a senior at Oregon this fall, has competed in the 440- yard dash in two all-comers meets here this summer. He finished second in each race in 54.1 and 51.1, respectively. "He wasn't trying to win," Bow erman said. He was just striding through the race to see how it felt. After all, one leg is six months behind the other in condi tion." The 22-year-old Canadian injured his leg while competing for his country in the British Empire Games at Perth, Australia, last November. He was operated on at his home city of Vancouver, B.C., following the accident and spent nearly a month in the hospital. He had his leg encased in a c a s t for 4 weeks and was on crutches for another several weeks. Jerome is expected to finish his eligibility at Oregon next spring. He did not compete last season. aboard off Juan Marichal. The defeat was Marichal s sixth against 18 victories. Mays Plays Short Singles by Harvey Kuenn and Felipe Alou were tlie only hits off Maloney, who turned in his fifth shutout. One of the features of the game was Willie Mays' shift to shortstop from center field in the eighth inning. It was the first time he had played any other po sition but center field since enter ing the majors. Willie said later he didn't think he would ever play shortstop again. He had no chances at his new position. Ken Boyer drove in three runs with a bases-loaded double in the first inning and Ernie Broelio scattered eight hits in the Cardi nals' victory over the Colts. Al Spangler's first-inning homer put Houston ahead temporarily but Broglio gave up only one mor run the remainder of the way ibr nis utn victory in 21 decisions. Bob Bruce was the loser. Rams To Start Roman Gabriel ORANGE, Calif. (UPI) - Los Angeles Ram coach Harland Svare said today he will start quarter back Roman Gabriel against the Minnesota Vikings Saturday night. Svare refused to have anything to do with a suggestion that he agree to start Terry Baker if Viking coach Norm Van Brocklin would agree to start his rookie, Ron Vanderkelen. "Van Brocklin can start any body he wants to," said Svare, "I'm going with Gabriel." Baker is expected to start a week from Saturday in Portland when the Rams meet the Dallas Cowboys.
