Yank Sprinters Each Other Spike ROME sprint ers Dave Sime and Frank Budd headed for the doctor today to see about the spike injuries they gave each other In tne final of the 100 meter Olympic track classic. Both were wondering whether their collision in Thursday's sprint would keep them out of tne coming relay. This is the way it happened as described, by Budd; "1 could see the tape just ahead ami the only one I knew I had to beat was Armin Hary. "But just before the finish Sime came barrelling across me in the inside lane.

He was off balance and crossed all the way in front of me. "I had to break stride. just hope the doctor doesn't decide to put in stitches. If he does I'm out of the relay. The stitches will aggravate the spike wounds sad I won't be able to train- I'm keeping my fingers crossed." Budd was spiked oo the outside ol Us heel.

He had ily bandaged soon after the race. Same's wounds were on top of his right toot. Hory Withdraws From ROME (AP) Germany's Ar- rnitt Mary, the lOQ-meter charn' pion, today withdrew from the 200-meter dash finals of the Olympic track and field competition.

"The team doctor looked him over and advised us it was nothing serious.

He said Hary could run In the 200, but we decided, to take no chances and we are rest- Ing him for the 400-meter relay." Hary, co-world record holder for 100 meters, was given only an outside chance of pulling off a gold medal double in the sprints.

Orioles, Yanks Open Important Three-Game Series By JOE REICHLER Associated Press Sports Writer Youth against experience, pitching against power. That's going to be the pattern in Baltimore this weekend as Paul Richards' Baby Birds and Casey Stengel's veteran New York Yankees clash in a pennant-bearing three-game set starting tonight. The Orioles, of course, have the best pitching in the American League while the Yankees, with 160 home runs to their credit, have the most power.

This is the big opportunity for the Orioles to take over first place. They trail the Yankees by one game but they are three down in the losing side. That means they must sweep the series. Two out of three would still leave them percentage points behind the Yankees. Authentic Test.

This series marks the first thentic test of pennant pressure for both teams. The edge lies with the Yankees, who have been through many September stretch drives. Among the Orioles, only Gene Woodling and Hoyt Wiihejm have been on previous pennant' battling teams. The pitching setups for each team follows the battle pattern- Yankee experience against Oriole youth. Whitey Ford, the Yankees' ace, faces 21-year-old Milt Pappas tonight.

Saturday jt will be Art Ditmar, winner of his last seven starts for New York, against year-okj Jack Fisher. Sunday's finale will pit Bob Turley against 22-year-old Chuck Estrada. A final four-game set will be played in Yankee Stadium Sept. 16, 17 and 18. The Yankees hold a 9-6 edge.

Kansas City tagged Barry man for 15 hits but the rigat-nanojer staggered thjoyfb to the finish for bis fourth triumph. He has lost five.

Russians Learn To Develop High Jumpers Editor's Note: The following analysis of Thursday's events at the Olympic stadium is by Bert Nelson, publisher of authoritative Track and Field News. By BERT NELSON ROME (AP) John Thomas's shocking defeat in the Olympic high jump may turn out to be the best thing that ever happened to United States track and field. If Thomas, the biggest "sure thing" of the pre-Olympic picks, had won the high jump as expected would have overlooked the most significant result of the competition.

For it was the fine jumping by the entire Russian team that was the real eye- opener. Any athlete, even an outstanding one as world record holder Thomas, can be beaten- It may have been an off day, or perhaps Long John reacted poorly to pressure. But the handwriting is clear for all to see that Russia has found the way to develop high jumpers. It used to be said that high jumpers, along with sprinters, were born. The Russians know better.

Vuriy Styupanov, the first great Russian jumper, was dismissed as the freak product of the since outlawed built-up shoe. But Styepa- nov's training program was there for all to see and it is obviously, this program which is paying dividends for the Soviet sky cliinbers. The Soviets do a lot of weight training, in one day jumper will do as many as 506 standing kicks 'th his lead They jump often hard. And now ia one meet, they have put three men over seven feet, proof positive of tne souadaess of the system- Merchants Get Valley As Merrill Upsets Point, 4-2 America Suffers Most Humiliating Olympic Defeats ROME Overeonfidence, poor management and lack of dedication were blamed today fof the sudden and shocking collapse of America's brightest gold medal hopes in the Olympic Games. "It Is a real tragedy," said Harold Connolly, world hammer throw "and so uncalled-for.

I am not the least surprised. Maybe this -Will wake us up at last. "We treat the Olympics as if it's a big Sunday picnic. To most of the countries, particularly Russia, this is they fight it like a war." Thursday Was the most humiliating single day ever suffered by the Americans in the history of the modern games. Finishes Third.

John Thomas, who has high- jumped 7 feet 56 times and who holds the world record at. finished third behind two Russians, who did 7-1. American ace sprinters were run into the ground by a- cocky, creW-Cut German named Armin Hary, ending- a 32- year U.S. monopoly in the 100 meters. Tom- Murphy and Ernest Cunliffe each finished last in semifinal heats of the 800 meters.

Americans had to stand erect three times while the hammer and sickle of the Union was hoisted over Olympic Stadium. Thursday night a heavy pall settled over the once-gay American sector of the Olympic Village. Even three swimming victories failed to lift the gloom. Connolly and his pretty Iron Curtain wife from Czechoslovakia, the former Olga Fikotova, were the mOst outspoken in their criticism. Raps Exhibitions.

"What can you expect?" Connolly, a Bostonian now living in Santa Monica, asked. "We wear out our team with a series of silly exhibitions in America. We take them on a sightseeing tour of Switzerland. We put them on a train for 15 hours two days before the opening of the garrvas. "You should have seen the boys in Switzerland eating, sight-seeing and enjoying themselves as- if they were on a holiday.

Mean- white, what about the Russians, Poles and hardening themselves for the competition. "It's bad management and lack of discipline. We'll never bsat the Russians until we go into games with as much dedication and as thorough preparation as they do." Olga took up the hatchet for the women. Invited to Russia. "Our women never go to another country nor invite another team to United States," she said, know positively invitations were issued for a bunch of us to compete this summer in Russia.

But the invitations were never passed along by our officials. We'll never be any good until we compete on an international scale." American Olympic officials were not ready to assume the full blame. "Maybe the boys hit their peak at Walnut, when they broke four world records and tied two others in one day," said Dan Ferris, honorary secretary of the Amateur Athletic Union. "Maybe now they're going downhill. "But you can't blame the coaches and managers, These athletes are mostly mature men.

They have their own coaches and training routines. They know what they have to do and should do it."

Carlson, a rangy sophomore had worked out at quarterback during the spring drills but the coach indicated he might be more valuable at a wing position. Bill Kellogg of Peoria, 111., who had been working out at end in spring drills, was moved to an offensive halfback position. Bruhn has three candidates for the quarterback spot.

They are Jim Bakken of Madison, a letterman, and John Fabry and Ron VanderKelen, both of Green Bay, Marquette Holds First Practice MILWAUKEE University opened football practice Thursday with a squad of 57 candidates working out under coach Lisle Blackbourn in morn- Ing and afternoon drills. Backbourn said he was pleased with the general physical condition of the players and termed the workout "good for the first day, though they forgot a few things we thought they had down pat in the spring." After drill on various offensive formations, the Warriors concentrated on the kicking game. Marquette plays its first game Sept. 17 at home against Villanova. The Rhinelander Merchants are the undisputed 1960 Wisconsin Valley Baseball League champions.

Merrill, which made a poor showing in the first part of the season, finished up by upsetting Stevens Point, 4-2, in a make-up game and in the process dumped the letter's hopes of tying for the loop title. The first round of play during the 1960 campaign saw- Rhinelander, Stevens Point and Tomahawk running even at the head 'of the league. By mid-way in the second round Rhinelander had taken over the top spot alone and maintained that position 'for the remairider of the season. However, Steven Point managed to maintain, a close, second all the way. Last week Rhinelander had an opportunity to wrap up sole possession of the league crown but failed in two attempts as Wausau posted double victories over the Merchants in final action for both teams.

This left the open for Stevens Point to tie but it would have needed two wins to turn the trick. in Tourney. Stevens Point and Tomahawk still have a make-up game but it is doubtful it will be played as it would have little effect oh the final standings and Stevens Point will be busy this coming week as it is participating in the semi-pro state tournament at Milwaukee. Rhinelander concludes the season wijh an 8-4 Valley mark, and a 12-5 overall record. The Merchants won two out of a three game series from'both Tomahawk and Merrill, dumped Stevens Point three times and topped Wausau once in three outings.

In exhibition play the Merchants defeated Exeland, Notre Dame Priests of Land o'Lakes, St. Mary's Priests and the Hodag League All- Stars. The fifth loss was to Stevens Point in a playoff game for the first round title to decide who would host the annual All-Star game. Stevens Point takes runnerup honors with a 6-5 record, Tomahawk is third at. 5-6 and Wausau and Merrill are tied at the bottom of the loop with 4-7 marks.

Mike Hudzinski was the winning pitcher for Merrill with Jim Kluck of Stevens Point'taking the loss. Merrill collected six hits, Stevens Point four. There were nine errors committed in the game. Braves Call Up Farm Pitcher MILWAUKEE Milwaukee Braves announced Thursday night that they had called up righthanded pitcher Terry Fox, 25, from their Sacramento farm club and that he would join the team tonight at Cincinnati. Fox, a native of Chicago has been used primarily in relief roles for Sacramento this year, has a 12-8 record and an earned run average of 2.69.
