(Only games scheduled)
Bo Belinsky Rot his lumps but
Mawaii still outlasted Tacoma 8-7
in an ll-inning Pacific Coast
League battle Monday night to
move past the Ciiants in the
southern division chase.
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.
Rippelmeyer (10-21 tossed a
one-hitter and blasted a two-run
homer at Spokane. Mike Brum
ley got the lone bit off the right
hander. , ... . : . f . . t
Dick Scott got greeted by four
straight hits and gave way to
.Joe Moeller w ho almost matched
Rippelmeyer's brilliance. 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.

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.

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

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."

Japan
TOKYO (UPI) Japanese
swimming experts and fans were
thoroughly disgusted today with
Japan's one-sided defeat in the
three-day dual meet with the
United Slates.
There was mounting criticism
of the training program of the
Japan Swimming Federation, and
the Japanese Education Ministry
was requested to permit competi
tive swimming among grade
school children in an effort to
develop swimmers.
The Japanese people, long
swimming enthusiasts, were
shocked by the 63-22 victory scor
ed by the 17-man American team,
averaging 18 years in age, in the
meet which ended Monday at the
50-meter outdoor Mciji pool.
