“The Sports Corner”
SPORTS WHIRL
The Los Angeles Dodgers have
won the National League pennant.
Their final challengers, the St.
ouis Cardinals, bowed before the
Chicago Cubs, 6 to 3, in Chicago
yesterday afternoon. The Dodgers
now go into the World Series next
week against the Yankees in New
York.
The San Francisco 49er pro foot
ball club moved to strengthen its
quarterback department. It traded
defensive halfback Eddie Dove to
the New York Giants for quarter
back Ralph Guglielmi, the former
Notre Dame star who has been
understudying cx-49er Y. A. Tittle.
The regular 49cr quarterback, John
Brodie, broke his passing arm in
an automobile accident in April
and hasn't been doing too well.
The club has failed to win a game
this season.
The first returns have been filed
on the problem of the newly in
stalled football substitution rule.
This rule bars the wholesale use
of manpower in college football.
The Associated Press has made a
survey, following the week-end
games. And the opinions are varied
on the new situation.
Here arc just a few samples of
opinion:
Coaches Johnny Vaught of Mis
sissippi and Ara Parseghian of
Northwestern don’t care too much
for the change. They sav the new
rule is tough and confusing.
Navy Coach Wayne Hardin said
it was no trouble at all. Darrell
Royal of Texas says the change
has merit.
Jim Brown continues to set a
real sizzling pace in ground gain
ing in the National Football
League. He has picked up 304 yards
in two games this season. Brown
also leads in scoring 30 points.
Y. A. Tittle of the New York
Giants is still the leader in for
ward passing, although idled by
injuries last Sunday.
Paul Flatley of the Minnesota
Vikings is the number one man at
catching passes with ten. And
Larry Benz of the Cleveland
Browns is tops at intercepting
passes, with three.
The Spokane Indians, winner of
the Northern Division Pacific
Coast League pennant, placed four
men on the All-Star team picked
by baseball broadcasters and
writers. Oklahoma City, winner
of the playoff, didn’t place a man.
Thirty-one members of the Ore
gon State University football squad
— including ten regular starters —
turned up today with what appears
to be the flu. Practice was called
off for today, and Coach Tommy
Prothro said no plans for practice
the rest of the week have been
made. Prothro himself is ill. O-S-U
is scheduled to play Colorado Sat
urday.
Sugar Ray Robinson, who is
moving into middle age with his
43 years, is embarking on another
boxing campaign in Europe. Rob
inson, the former welterweight
and middleweight king and one
of the greatest ring men of all
time, left New York today for
Paris. Fights are lined up in Par
is, Rome and possibly Brussels.
World Softball Champs
Won After 4 A.M.
CLEARWATER. Fla. UB — It
took 31 innings and seven hours.
41 minutes of playing time, but
the defending champion Clear
water Bombers finally beat Port
land, Ore.. 4-3, in the men’s world
softball tournament yesterday.
The game started at 7 p.m. Mon
day and didn’t finish until after
4 a.m.
One pitcher. Jack Hutchinson of
Portland, left the game with fa
tigue after 29 innings although he
struck out 23, walked only eight
and gave up but 10 hits
The winner. Eddie King, a 30
year-old telephone company ac
countant, pitched 25 innings,
walking only one, allowing eight
hits and striking out 25. He also
drove in the winning run.
PCL President Reports
30% Fan Increase
SEATTLE UP — The president of
the Pacific Coast League said to
day that attendance for the 10-team
league this year increased 30 per
cent over 1962.
Dewey Soriano said attendance,
including the championship play
off series between Oklahoma City
and Spokane, was 1,538,701, com
pared with 1,055.745 in 1962, when
eight clubs were in the circuit.
“Much of the attendance in
crease can be attributed to the two
divisions,’’ Soriano said. “We had
a very competitive race in the
Southern Division right to the end.
If Spokane hadn’t run away with
the Northern Division champion
ship I estimate we would have
been up another 200,000.”
Liston To Resume Tour
DENVER '4* — Sonny Liston
will resume his European boxing
tour “in a couple of weeks” and
then will probably go to Capetown,
Union of South Africa, a spokes
man said yesterday.
The tour would include an ex
hibition for American service
men at Frankfurt, Germany.
The heavyweight champion
abruptly broke off his European
tour while in Great Britain last
week. Ke has not disclosed his
reason.
WINNING REVERSALS
It was quite an event when Dick
Ellsworth of the Chicago Cubs
posted his 20th victory of the sea
son. Last season, Ellsworth won
only nine games while losing 20.
It has been 28 years since a ma
jor league pitcher has won 20
games after dropping 20 the pre
vious season. Paul Derringer of the
Cincinnati Reds was the last one
to turn in such a feat, back in
1935. Another Cincinnati pitcher
— Dolph Loque — had one of the
biggest reversals ever in the ma
jors. He lost 23 games for the Reds
in 1922. The next season, he I
won 27.
