Tracy, a starting halfback for the Pittsburgh Steelers the past four years, injured his leg Monday night in an exhibition game.

The seven-year veteran from Tennessee was a dangerous runner whose small size belied his power. He was expected to be a starter again. The Steelers also said linebacker Myron Pottios may miss the entire season because of a fractured right arm. Shaw, the first player obtained in 1961 by the Minnesota Vikings in their maiden year in the N.F.L., lost his job early last season to rookie Fran Tarkenton. Then he was eased out of the No.

2 post by Lee Grosscup, whom the Vikings obtained last month from the New York Giants. The former Oregon quarterback began his career with the Batimore Colts, but an injury forced him to the sidelines, and Johnny Unitas took over for good. He was traded to the Giants after the 1958 season, and played behind Charley Conerly before going to the Vikings. Richardson, in his ninth year in the N.F.L., was a defensive starter for Philadelphia last year. Veteran Will Renfro, a defensive end, also was cut by the Eagles.

Gillis was a St. Louis starter last year. But an injury this spring forced Coach Wally Lemm to move Bob DeMarco into the spot, and he has held it since. The Los Angeles Rams cut John Kenerson, defensive tackle from Kentucky State. Colonel Win 6th Straight Continued on Page 6 three rounds as he struck out four in the first three innings.

Brickell led off the fourth with the first hit off the former National League "Rookie of the Year." He lofted a two-ball, one-strike pitch over the left field wall. Louisville made only one other threat. Jim Bolger doubled to open the seventh, but was still there when the inning ended. Oklahoma City pushed one runner to third as Grob faced just 29 men. i FOOTNOTES Bolgcr's hit marked the 12th straight game in which he has hit safely', a Colonel high for the season, Some 350 Little Leaguers from Bardstown and New Haven were guests last night.

Starting with No. 9, he won six consecutive holes and took a one-up lead, one of only two times he was ahead during the Leibson won the 16th and 17th holes and led by one stroke at the halfway point. Both Leibson and Roby felt the pressure of the championship match and their play was erratic at times during both the morning and afternoon rounds.

In fact, only three holes were halved in the morning and six in the afternoon. Roby Regains Lead Roby won the first two holes of the afternoon to lead again briefly by one-up. Leibson quickly regained the lead, though, and was ahead by one or two until Roby made his dramatic stab on the 150-yard 33d or No. 6 hole. Hitting first after winning No.
