The news that Belinsky would start brought a remarkable Mon day night crowd of 7.4!K) and their Bo did not disappoint for five innings as he pitched shutout ball and helped Hawaii's attack with his hitting. It was 5-0 when the roof fell in and Tacoma scored (our times. Bill Hain homered with two aboard in the eighth, but Hawaii tied it up when Spanky Kirk Patrick hit a two-run belt in the bottom of the eighth. Charley Decs finally ended the contest when he doubled home Ron Samford in the 11th to hand the win to Al Thomas and the loss to Ron Herbel. But Belinsky emerged with his 2-0 record intact and the Hawaii management can be happy that it has a real gate attraction in Belinsky. Elsewhere around the league Monday night, San Diego's Ray Rippelmeyer put on a hitting and pitching show as San Diego blanked Spokane 4-0. Oklahoma City staved 2' 2 games ahead of Dallas-Ft. Worth in the southern division chase by edging Denver 3-2 while Dallas rolled over Salt Lake City 9-1. Portland and Seattle took the night off.

But it was too late for the Indians by then. Everything went wrong for Den ver in the ninth inning against Oklahoma City. It was 2-2 when Al Hcisl walked. Danny Murphy bunted and was safe on an error. Jim Mahoney tried In sacrifice but al! hands were safe when Denver's Chi Chi Olivo broke the wrong way to field it. Then George Williams hit a bloop single to drive in what proved to be the winning run. It was a tough loss for the workhorse Olivo, who goes both as a starter and reliever. Tom Borland came on for Dallas to get the win. Tony Oliva, George Banks and Cesar Tovar hit homers to lead Dallas-Ft. Worth past Salt Lake City. Ted Sadouski got the victory with a six-hitter. Lane Calls Ortiz Bluff Palmer Set As Favorite In Playoff AKRON. Ohio (UPI) Arnold Palmer, feeling "fit and fine." was favored over Jacky Cupil and Phil Rodgers today in their 18-hoIe playoff for a shot at golf s biggest jackpot of 13 the $50,000 first place money in the World Series. The winner will join Jack Nick- laus, the Masters and PGA cham pion; Julius Boros, the U.S. Open king, and Bob Charles, the left hander who won the British Open, lor the two-day medal play match for the World Series of Golf prize here Sept. 7-8. Although Palmer has more ere dentials than anv golfer in the world, they were not good enough to qualify him for the big jack pot. Palmer has established new single-season money-winning record with a total of $116,966 in official prize money and has won six tournaments more than any other golfer this year. But the format for the World Series of Golf calls for the win ners of tiie world's four major tournaments the Masters, the U.S. and British Opens and the PGA to meet in this money event. Nicklaus ruined that for mat when he won the PGA in luly at Dallas to go with his Mas ters title. So those who finished in play offs in any of those tournaments were chosen to meet for the fourth qualifying spot. Palmer and Cupit tied Boros for the U.S. Open title and lost in an 18-holc playoff; Rodgers tied Charles (or the British Open title and lost in a 36-hole playoff. The winner of today's playoff starting at 9 a.m., EDT automat ically will be assured of $5,000, for that is the amount that goes to the third and fourth place win ners in the World Series of Golf. The first place winner gets the $50,000 while second place is worth $15,000. The playoff losers today will receive $1,000 each. For Palmer, Cupit and Rodg ers today's playoff served a sec ond purpose a tune-up for the $00,000 American Golf Classic starting Thursday over the . same layout the long Firestone Coun try Club course. 33: j tf3M'K i.l'tV Pi JURY STILL OUT Wallace Bults Is shown at left as ha digs in his pocket for change to buy a newspaper at his hotel in Atlanta where he awaits the results of a jury de cision in his libel suit against the Saturday Evening Post.

ATLANTA iUPH - A federal jury today resumed deliberations on whether Wallace Butts is a traitor to Georgia football or an innocent man ruined by a maga zine s sophisticated muckrak ing." The I2 man jury deliberated 6 hours and 30 minutes Monday' night before retiring at 10:43 p.m., EDT, without reaching a de cision in Butts' $10 million libel suit against the Saturday Eve ning Post. The panel of business men was scheduled to resume its deliberations at 10 a.m., EDT lo- Today's Sportrait: Weill Eyes Promotion Front By JACK CUDDY UPI Snorts Writer NEW YORK 1 UPI 1 - Al Weill, perhaps the ring's most success ful all-time all-round "front man" manager, matchmaker and promoter did two things today, at the age of 69. He flew to Washington, D. C, to confer with the light heavy weight Bob Foster about the possi bility of Bob becoming his fight er. And he mailed a bid to Miami Beach for himself and Abe Saper stein of the basketball Globetrot ters to promote boxing and wrest ling at the Miami Beach Con vention Hall and Auditorium. Although Weill, a wealthy man. now lives at Miami Beach, he explained at his New York Hotel, "I was surprised when the people at the Beach notified me they were taking bids for promotion there." "Al, known as the "Built" and the "Vestkit" in his younger and Dudgier davs, is best remem bered as the manager of four world champions: heavyweight Rocky .Marciano. welterweight Marty Servo, lightweight Lou Ambers and featherweight Joey Archibald. Talks Of Foster "What about this new man, Foster at Washington?" A re porler asked gray - haired and somewhat smallish Al, who has nared down from about 175 to 149 at the request of the Mayo Bros. (Doctors not tigntersi "Foster wrote me," Weill be gan, "and said he would like to have me manage him. I remem ber I see him fight last October at the Garden. He went in as a substitute against heavyweight SAGINAW, Mich. (UPI) c... i.----.. 1 f xt....!... gon, .Mien., cnarging mat tarios OCKS ulation." said today he is ready to fight Ortiz "the sooner the better" for the world lightweight championship after winning the Michigan version of the crown. Lane, 31, who has spent most of his career trying to get the champions in the ring with him, battered Paulie Armstead of Los Angeles to win a unanimous 15 round decision and the Michigan version of the lightweight title Monday night. But the World Boxing Associa tion did a turnabout Sunday and recognized Ortiz of New York as the world champ after stripping him of his title last June for fall ing to defend it. The WBA ordered Ortiz to sign for a fight with Monday night's inner for the title within 60 days "unless the conditions im posed on the champ are unfair." Armstead was hitter about the verdict, claiming it was a "home town decision." He added, "Box ing should be banned in Michi gan." But Armstoad's manager. Bill Newman, said he thought Lane won the fight although he thought it was closer than tile judges' scores indicated. Referee Lou Jallos gave it lo Lane. 146-143. while Judge Don Dilley had it 147-141 and Judge Wes Tebeau 146-138. 1-ane weighed in at I34ji pounds, and Armstead al 135. Doug Jones and looked awful good until he ran out of gas and got stopped in the eighth round. Bob only weighed 174 pouunds against Jones' 182." Al emphasized that Jones of New York is now the world's sec ond ranking heavyweight, just un der Cassius Clav. Meanwhile. Foster informs Al he is growing and will be a heavyweight soon. "Maybe Foster and 1 can do business," said Al optimistically. I think he's lost only that one fight in his 13 or 14 starts." None Others Has Al any other fighters now? "No," he explained, "I don't take boys now unless I think they've got a lotta ability and are w illing to work hard. 1 may go up to Toronto soon lo look over some young Canadaian amateur prospects that Sammy Lultspring likes." Luflspring. former welter weight and middleweight, was one of Weill's favorities among the 320 fighters he managed. Sammy now owns a night club in Toronto. Has Weill managed any good boys since Marciano retired in 1956 as the only perfect-record heavyweight champion? "Nobody of any importance," he said. "Heavyweight Dave Rent of England looked good for a while. But he suffered an eye injury and retired." dav. Monday night the jurors appar-l entlv took at least one ballot and failed to agree before retiring. The jury is trying to decide if the Post told the truth or libeled the former Georgia athletic direc tor in a March article called "The Story of a College Football Fix It claimed Butts gave Alabama coach Paul 1 Bear I Bryant secrets of the Georgia team one week be fore the 1962 Georgia-Alabama points, trounced Georgia 35-0 in the game. Denies Ml Charge Butts denied once in tears that he gave away secrets, and demands $10 milium in damages from the Curtis Publishing Co The 12 jurors, none of whom played college football, received the case at 4:02 p m., EDT, Mon day. Federal District Judge Lewis R. Morgan told them the slory was libelous on its face, and in Older to win its case the Post had lo prove it was true. Morgan, in his 38-minute charge to the jury, said tile jurors had to bring in a verdict in favor of cither Butts or the publishing firm. In the event of a verdict for Butts, who wants $5 million in general damages and $5 mil lion more in punitive damages, he said the jury must determine the amount of the damages. ou are the supreme judges of the facts and none may invade that province," the judge said. He noted that there was "sharp conflict" in Ihe testimony. He said the jury, if it found that the Post partially established the truth of its article, could miti gate the damages. William Schroder. Butts' attor ney, summed up his case lor the jury by charging that the maga- body or anyone's reputation and it's up to you to stop them." "Killing a man's reputation is worse than death to me," he said. "Can you imagine anything worse than to be still alive and attend the funeral of your own reputa tion?" Schroder, who got so exicted in his summation to the jury that the judge had to ask him to calm down, was an honor graduate of the 1938 University of Georgia Law School class and played foot ball at Notre Dame during his undergraduate days. Post attorney W'tlhorn Cody said "this case boils down to one fact alone that information was passed that affected the outcome of that game." If Butts "tam pered" with the game in advance, said Cody, "then lie is corrupt."
