Cubs Win, On Moryh 7-5, Hit The switchhitting Figard batted lefthanded to send a drive over the rightficld billboard in the first inning. Beards swat reached the Indians' stockholders' sign in the fifth. JACKSON SLAMMED his seventh homer far over the leftficld bricks in the seventh off southpaw Art Ceccarclli. Martin's twobngger off the right-center wall and McAn-any's single gave the Indians a run in the fourth.

The Tribe tallied their other two markers In the sixth, starting this splurge with Martin's douhle down the first base line. MeAnany gain singled him across and reached third when the ball got by rlghtflelder Bob Will. Camilo Carreon's sacrifice fly accounted for the second run. Thomas had only one bad inning the second in which the cats collected three of their hits. F.mii Syngel singled and advanced on a balk.

He moved to third on an infield out and scored when Mo Thacker'i low liner off Martin's glove went for a single. Ray Bellino. walked and Nichols sent a liner towards first, Jackson jumped to knock down the ball and it went for a single, loading the bases. All three were stranded when Jerry Kindall popped out to Boh Sagers back of the mound. Thomas hurled serenely the rest of the way as he didn't permit more than one base-runner an inning.

IIFT-AND-RUN One of the top fielding plays of the season was turned in by Stan Johnson In the seventh. He leaped in front of the scoreboard to rob Alex Cosmidis of an extra base hit. t( 4 of the racing Rathmann Race, buthe plans to move fying speeds only 32100th of a second apart. THE SPEEDWAY yestcr day filed a request for zoning variance with the Metropolitan Plan Commis sin which would pave the way for construction of a new grandstand outside the north turn. uarence eagle, superin tendent of grounds, said the building plans still are some what indefinite.

"We don't know just what we're going to put in there," he said, "It's very possible we will put in a grandstand to replace the temporary bleachers we have up there this year. If. the people want mat ground tor seating, we might just as well use it." He refers to 40 acres now roned for farming. The Speedway requested that it be rezoned for industrial use IT IS AN ironic coincidence that the race-day pit of Duane Carter will be right beside the section reserved for officials of the United States Auto Club who are in charge of the race. Carter was USAC director of competition until he was ousted last January.

WATCH FOR Boh Russo, West Coast racing writer who has been on the Speedway payroll of late, to be named assistant director of compcli tion of USAC to fill the post vacated by resignation of Dave Cassidy. ART SIMS doesn't quite know what to do with him self around Gasoline Alley these days. It will be the first time in 19 years that the veteran mechanic has sat out the "500," he laments Johnnie Tolan was averag ing in the 143 bracket for three laps in Sims' car, the Chapman Special, but hit the wall on the fourth circuit. The car was repaired but Tolan didn't get to qualify it.

Kindall and Thacker also made fine fielding plays. Kindall moved to his right for a fine stop of Johnson's hopper in the first and Thacker made a tumbling catch going back of the plate for Thomas' bunt in the eighth.

The Indians endd the home stand with a 4-4 mark. Martin was struck on the back by a Nichols pitch in the second and MeAnany walked. After Carreon grounded into a double play Ken Walters went in front of the scoreboard for Sagers' fly. Manager Walker Cooper wants to give Houston a diet of lefthanded pitching so Bob Kuzava will make his first start when the Indians play at the Buffs park tonight. After MeAnany singled over tho run in the fourth, Don Taussig made a good catch coming in for Carreon's fly.

MeAnany then took advantage of Thacker's laxness to reach third on a wild pitch. But Syngel grabbed Sagers liner for the third out. roar worth AR P. A I KlndoM, Ik 4 0 0 1 1 0 Will. 4 0 I I 0 I Walton, If 4 0 0 0 0 Svnget, Jt 4 11110 Tautiig.

UNTIL THE ninth, the only runs off Owens were home runs by Robinson and Bell. The Phils, who knocked out Cincinnati starter Joe Nuxhall in the second inning, also let a flock of scoring chances get away. Nuxhall, who hadn't pitched since May 14 because of an ailing shoulde'r, didn't get a man out in the second. He was lifted after giving up a walk to Wally Post, a single to Harry Anderson and the first of Willie Jones -two doubles. That scored Post.

Orlando Pena put out the fire but he was in constant trouble until he finally was lifted for a pinch hitter in the last of the fifth. In the top half of that frame he had given up two runs after getting the first two men out. Ed Bouchce singled, Tost walked and Harry Anderson tripled to drive home the runs. THE PHILS got their final run in the ninth on a walk to Bouchce and a double off the scoreboard by Post. The Reds got numerous scoring changes against Owens but he stifled the threats until Robinson hit his homer in the sixth.

Dick (Rapid Rex) Rathmann was ousted from the race on the first lap last year In that 15-car pileup on the northeast turn.

He was placed 27th. Dick escaped with a slight knee Injury when to swung to the top of the track to avoid Ed Elisian's spinning car and hit the wall, cutting his McNamara Special in two. PnfVimann naAa an iinitciinl ia viii imiiii iiiuui mi uiiuiuui comeback at the Speedway after a five-year absence. He first came here in 1950 as the driver of the famous "Pots and Pans Special." Actually, the car was registered as the "City of Glcndale," being financed by merchants and residents of the California city. But, it dref the nickname because of short budget it operated on and the numerous lmprovisions made on the car.

Dick was a graduate of the roadster and sprint car ranks an dalong with him to Indianapolis came a couple of youngsters who since have proved themselves pretty fair mechanics, A. J. Watson and Jud Phillips. But, the Pots and Pans Special was strictly a makeshift operation and lasted but 25 laps before a broken oil line put it out. After running the car in several championship races.

Dick switched to the NASCAR Grand Na-tional circuit. He came back to the Speedway In 1936 and, despite the five-year layoff, qualified the McNamara Special at 144.741, which was nearly 14 miles faster than his qualifying speed the prev. Jous race. Ratheman set something of an unenviable record that year. After having taken the checkered flag to finish In fifth place, he crashed against the wall In the southwest turn.

Dick wasn't hurt, however. In 1957, Dick qualified a Sumar Special for the 17th starting spot but he got an eye injury during a battle with a bunch of young thugs a couple of days before the race and had to be replaced In the cockpit by Johnnie Tarsons on race morning. Last year, Rathmann took over the McNamara Special which had been built by Watson less than a week before qualifications opened. But, he put the car on the pole with a record average of 145.974, for the four laps. Many persons blamed Dick for the unfortunate snafu which saw the front row leave ahead of the pice car last year.

But it should be remembered that Dick didn't take off onto that track alone. He was sent out by his crew. And it was partially the officials' fault for failing to have an official stationed at the entrance onto the track to keep anyone from "jumping the gun." At 33 years old, Dick is a muscular six-footer weighing 180 pounds.

Moryn slapped a 3-2 pitch Into right field, scoring Jim Marshall and George Altman. Righthander Dave Hillman, who struck out 11 Dodgers in 7Jj innings of relief, got the victory and evened his record at 3-3.
