Rookie Titcher Al Yaylian's two-bagger and Jim Delsing's single produced the winning run before anybody was out in the second extra canto. Olympic boxing fans are concerned, there'll be no medal for Benny, meaning of course, Referee Benny Whitman, who periodically goes out of his way to pull something stupid in the fight ring. Whitman hit an all-time high in the boner department last night as he aided Tommy Bell.

Wilson Robbed Wilson, who hadn't dropped an Olympic bout in 10 years, was robbed of victory. It all happened in the third Tadres Lose Lead The outcome pulled the Padres out of the top spot for the first time this season, idle San Fran cisco taking over the pace-setting Until this thing is Cleared up, I must hang my head in shame and humiliation. What! A jai alai player propel a ball farther with that wicker basket than a top-flight ballplayer can hit it with a baseball bat? Ever seen a jai alai game? Neither have I. They pronounce it "Hi Li." (Well, why don't they spell it thataway?) But it sounds like a low lie to me, that statement mentioned up there in the first paragraph.

A friend of mine, just returned from Tijuana he shall remain nameless, on account he told his wife he went to San Diego on business, and I'm no canary well, let me quote him: TALK HIS LANGUAGE "You know, Braven," he said, "this here Hi-Li game meant nothing to me until I heard that they had pari-mu-tuel machines in connection. Now pari-mutuels I understand; I am a summa cum laude graduate of the course prescribed at Santa Anita and Hollywood Tark. "So I drifted down across the border, over Ho Tijuana where this big million-buck fronton is located. Fronton that's the name of the place where you play Hi-Li. I don't know what it means.

Dry-cleaning establishment, probably. "Hi-Li is a sort of high-powered handball, except you don't use the hand: you use a wicker basket, which is fastened onto a glove. The ball is much livelier than a handball, also much heavier. They tell me if you get nicked on the noggin with one of these Hi-Li balls, they phone an undertaker. I didn't ask for proof.

I wasn't that curious. Wirephoto BREAKING POINT Ted Williams, Bosox slugger, tried to stretch it too far when he took off for home from first base after Bobby Doerr doubled.

But just as Jackie was ready to connect, Whitman butted in as if to stop the fight, which he should have done. Wilson stepped back, expecting to have his hand raised. Then Whitman changed his mind. He decided to let the bout go on. Meanwhile, Bell had recovered his senses.

It was, incidentally, San Diego's sixth overtime game since the curtain went up a scant two weeks ago.

Yaylian, 23-year-old southpaw who is a local prep product, took over for tiring Joe Krakauska3 as the 10th inning got under way and retired six batters in order, three by strike-outs, then set up the pins for his first triumph of the season by doubling against the right-center fence off Ed Vitalich, who had replaced Vernon Kennedy in the seventh. Delsing then slapped a single through the middle, with Yaylian barely beating the peg to the plate. Hollywood had a 2-1 advantage going into the ninth inning, only to have Vince Shupe smash the first pitch over the right boards.

It's about ISO feet long, 40 feet wide. No trouble to learn the game; all you need to start learning is a couple of bucks for a pari-mutuel ducat. It sure is fast and thrilling especially if you've bought the right number. "Well, sir, the thing that hit my Yankee pride: I was introduced to Linn Platner, one of the owners, and Ray Garcia, press-agent. And they told me this incident.

"They said that back in '41 before the war, three Hi-Li players named Pedro, Kiki and Lizarraga challenged three American ballplayers to a contest. The Hi-Li boys to propel the ball, or pelota, with their wicker baskets; the ballplayers to fungo-bat a regulation pill. FAMOUS THREESOME "Three Yanks accepted the challenge. Oh, you've heard of 'em: one was a fellow-townsman named Lou Novi-koff, the second was a fair-to-middlin guy named Hank Greenberg, and the third was also slightly-better-than-aver-age. His name was Terry Moore.

"Bill Terry, then manager of the New York Giants, arranged the contest, laughing up his sleeve at the idea of them furriners beating our boys, or even coming close And Bill was a good scoffer. "All three of the Hi-Li laddies batted their pelota more than 400 feet; not one of the Yanks was able to fungo-bat farther than 380 feet. There was plenty of witnesses, too. And was Bill Terry mortified! ISSUE CHALLENGE now, these three boys Pedro, Kiki and Lizarraga are currently playing in Tijuana, every week-end. And they have issued a challenge against the three best batsmen in the Pacific Coast League, or any other league, to a similar contest "But that ain't all.

These guys are willing to pay their own expenses to come up here to LJL, and if anyone around here is action-minded, they are willing to wager a few pesos on the side. "That's what makes my American blood boil, Braven; I insist that the challenge be taken up." CAN HARDLY WAIT Meanwhile, the next "must" item on my sports bill-off are is a jai alai night at the Tijuana Fronton. My friend tells me to bet on the big numbers; he says the scientific way of betting on Hi-Li is to chunk it in on the small numbers. They also have quinielas and daily doubles and all the other approved dry-cleaning processes. This I'll have to see.

I hope, In the interest of science, that my investigation expenses will be okayed by the boss. 5 111 Sturm, lb 4 13 1 New York 1 1 0 0 0 1 ft 0 0 3 Philadelphia 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 3 i Ripney. Hartunsr, Thomson, Gordon. 2. RBI Hartuntf.

(JP) The Indianapolis Motor Speedway management sat tight tonight on its refusal to grant organized drivers' request for more prize money or part of the gate receipts as time ran out on the midnight deadline for entering the May 30 500-mile race. Owner-Builder Lou Moore, who twice has sent winning cars to the post in the Indianapolis racing classic, said here yesterday he had sent in entries for two automobiles in the coming race May 30. "I am in complete accord with the move by the American Society of Professional Automobile Racing to get the Indianapolis Speedway to increase its prize money, but six months ago I signed a contract with an accessory company to enter two cars and I have to go through with it or face a possible law suit," Moore said.
