The tipoff may come in Thursday's Blue Gr.iss Stakes tor 3-year-olds at Kecne- land.

Gain Hoy's Racing Pool will be trying 'for his fourth straight victory in the test, just a furlong less than the Derby distance. The son of Jet Pilot-Spring Run has speed, like Cain Hoy's ill-fated Dark Star.

In his last three races he has won at 1 1-15-miles, six furlongs and seven i furlongs.

He has shown evidence of tiring, but in his last effort he was caught in the stretch by Hutcheson, then fought 1 back to win.

Hamilton Captures 100th Game ween Two Schools Hamilton team defeated The reasons given for the stiffer penalty against Cincinnati, in the words joi NCAA Executive Director Walter Byers, were "it was the judgement of, the council that Cincinnati's infractions were of a more extensive and seripus nature than those committed by Oklahoma." The council reported it was found that Oklahoma staff mem-' bers offered prospective student- athletes cost-free education beyond the athletes' normal period of, eligibility. The school also was accused of paying medical expenses for immediate families of student athletes, specifically the wives and children of such athletes.

(For British light- heavyweight title) By ED WILKS The Associated Press Charlie Grimm wntchod the rain bounce off the sidewalks of New York from his hotel room yesterday afternoon and figured both his Milwaukee Braves and his ulcers were in good shape, what with Bobby Thomson hitting and all. Jolly Cholly agreed with pro-season talk that had his guys wlnnlnp flic'National League pennant. And he was sure the Johnny Antonelll for-Thomson deal with the Giants was about, to swing in favoi: at last.

A year ago, ol was useless with a broken ankle while Antonelll was the pride of New York's pitching staff as the Giants swept to tho world title. "Thomson already lias won two pnmcs for us In the field," said Charlie, "and three with his bat." That accounted for five of the sev- vcn won by second-place Milwaukee so far. It might have been six games chalked up for Thomson last night for a guy named Antoricl- li. Tlie young letyy, beaten In his two previous starts, three-hit the Braves in a 3-2 New York victory. He made Thomson, tied for the league lead in runs-batted jn with 17, look like just another batter.

Twice ho fanned Thomson as Bobby went hitlcss four trips. Three times Thomson failed with runners on base. In the eighth, a rally fizzled as Thomson dribbled- the ball in front of the plate for the final out with the tying run on third. That was the only National League game played. The American got off all four games, topped by Bob Tin-ley's one-hit pitching in a 5-0 victory over the Chicago White Sox that moved the New York Yankees into first place, one game up on the Sox.

Boston had a chance to tie the Yankees, but lost to Kansas City 8-7 in 11 innings. That tied.the Red Sox for third with Cleveland's Indians, who beat Washington 3-2 as Bob Lemon won his fourth with a home run. At Kalinc's ninth-inning blast beat Baltimore for Detroit 3-2. Antonelli, still hunting the Braves, fanned nine despite 40-cle grccs temperature, to laka the league lead in that department. Chicago's Sam Jones has one less than Antonelll's 22.

Turley ran his strikeout total, tops In the majors, to 27, whiffing 10 while winning his third decision without defeat and looking more and more like he may be the man Now York needs to reclaim the flag. Sherm Lollar's single in the second was the only hit he allowed, although he walked nine, as is his practice. Skowron boosted his average to with a home run and a single and he added a sacrifice fly to drive in three runs. He leads the AL with 17 rbis. The Sox, whose righthander tactics against 'the Yanks failed as Mu.i Fornieles was tagged for three runs in 'the first, also lost Shoristop Chico Carrasquel, who was spiked on the ankle by Hank Bauer in a double-play break up.

Boston's relief r-itcning, by Russ Kemmerer and Tom Kurd, no-hit the A's from the fourth to the llth. Then Joe Astroth'tripled and Jim Finigan smacked a single to win it after'Kurd loaded the bases intentionally. Finigan'also homered for three runs in the first. Tom Gorman was the winner, coming on in relief as Boston-Jicd it in the eighth at 7-all. Try It For lunch Or Dinner Tomorrow!
