Loi, Ortiz SEC TENNIS PITTSBURGH (AP)- Outfield- er Bob Clemente pounded a home run and two singles and drove in four runs Tuesday night, sparking the Pittsburgh Pirates to a -9-6 win over the league-leading San Francisco Giants.

The fleet-footed, right-handed -swinging Puerto Rican drilled a two-run homer into the lower right field stands in the seventh inning. It was his second of the year. He drove in his other two runs with a line-drive single in the sec ond. The victory moved the Pirates to within Vk games of the pace-setting Giants. With his three hits, Clemente boosted his average for the sea son to .331 and extended his hit- hitting streak to 11 straight games.

Bill Virdon chipped in with two scorching singles to stretch his hitting streak to 11 straight games Pirate starter Harvey Had-dix was credited with the victory, his second against no defeats, but he needed relief help from Clem Labine in the sixth. The Bucs exploded for three runs in the first frame and four Clash and had to be delayed because of the busy soccer schedule at the stadium. Sammy Cherin, who is handling Ortiz, claimed the postponement was a blow to his fighter. "He was in top shape then," said Cherin. According to the Milan sports newspaper, Gazzetta Dello Sport, "Loi suffered making the weight and Ortiz probably suffered because he is more nervous." Loi, 32, is a veteran of 112 pro fights dating to 1948.

His record is 104-2-6. The only defeat, in addition to the one by Ortiz last was the loss of a decision to Jorgen Johansen in 1952. Back to back singles by Virdon and Dick Groat, an infield out, Clemente's first single, a walk and a two-base hit by Smoky Burgess accounted for Pittsburgh's first three runs. The Pirates got four in the sec ond on Bill Mazeroski's double, a base-on-balls, a single by Groat, a double by Bob Skinner and Clemente's second single. Right-hander Jack Sanford, the first of three Giant hurlers, was tagged with the loss.

He is now 1-3. Ed Bailey and Willie Mays were the big guns for the Giants.

Landis, who had driven in Chicago's first run with a sacrifice fly and scored the second after doubling in the fourth inning, boomed his fourth homer of the season in the eighth inning after Roy Sievers had walked. The victory lifted the White Sox out of the American League cellar as Score set down the Indians with a two-hit job. Score, still plagued by wildness, turned in the first complete pitching effort by a Sox hurier since April 30. Both Cleveland runs off the one time uretoailing sensation were scored without the aid of a hit. Woody Held led off the Cleveland second with a walk, took second on a balk, advanced to third on a fly ball and scored on Vic Power's sacrifice fly.

In the top of the fourth, Jim Piersall and Held both walked and advanced on a sacrifice bunt. Power then sent Piersall home with his second sacrifice fly. Score, making his first start of the season, didn't allow a hit until Piersall tripled with one out in the sixth. Held then fouled out to Colonial "Nat5! Golf Tourney Begins Today FORT WORTH, Tex.

State Street Texaco GAINESVILLE, Fla. South-eastern Conference tennis championship play will get underway Thursday morning at the University of Florida varsity courts with the host Gators and Mississippi State holding the favorite roles. Each has lost only one match this year.

Florida has lost to unbeaten Miami and the Maroons to Florida State. Non-conference Florida State, however, lost to Florida. Perennial powerhouse Tulane rates as the darkhouse in this year's tournament. Defending champion Georgia Tech lost its top players at commencement last year and is not considered a serious contender. Florida is expected to utilize fts team strength in its bid for its first SEC crown since 1950.

Southpaw Jimmy Shaffer and power-stroking Bill Tym give the Gators a strong one-two punch. It wfll be the middle twosome of Morrill Hay and Art Surloff who will be counted upon to win their division crowns, thereby providing a key to the team title. The Gators Mike Gullinane and Fred Shaya are given good chances of copping the No. 5 and 6 titles as well as the No. 3 doubles.

Shaffer's competition for the No. 1 singles crown will come from Wane's Lee Fentress, who has beaten Shaffer, LSU's Leslie Nicholson and Mississippi State's Manuel Garcia. The Maroons' entries will be paced by Garcia of Mexico City and Ellis Sanhueza of Santiago, Chile, State's No. 1 and 2 players, who will also form a strong No. 1 doubles team.

Likely for the Maroons' No. 3 and 4 slots are Johnny McQuaig of Meridian and Mario Lemus of Mezico City. They will pair for Attorney General Warns PGA Of Discrimination LOS ANGELES (AP) State Atty.

Woodling hit his third home run, a run-producing triple and two singles as the Senators built up a 5-2 lead and then stood off the Tigers' late rally.

The defeat snapped the first place Tigers' six-game winning streak. Ex-Tiger Dave Slsler choked off Detroit's rally at two runs in the eighth inning.

a D'ympla etc MILAN, Italy (AP)-DuiUo Loi and Carlos Ortiz will carry their war of words into the ring Wed nesday night when Lois world junior welterweight title will be at stake in a 15-round match at the San Siro Soccer Stadium. "I can beat Loi once every week," Ortiz was quoted as saying in a leading Milan newspaper Tuesday. Ortiz, born in Puerto Rico but now living in New York, has been bitterly critical of Hie officiating in their Sept. 1 bout in Milan, won by Loi. As a result of the criticism Milan officials agreed to bring in an American referee, Frankie Carter of San Francisco.

Loi also has been giving out statements about his ability to beat the handsome blond Ortiz. This is the third match between the two men at the 140-pound class limit of this recently reactivated division. Ortiz won the crown by knocking out Kenny Lane in 1959 and defended xt by stopping Bat tling Torres in 10 rounds. Then he met Loi for the first time last June 15 in San Francisco and won a split decision. The referee gave it to Loi but the two judges voted for Ortiz.

When they fought again in Milan before 65,000, two officials voted forJiOi and thejhird called it a draw. "Ortiz dealt out heavy body punishment to his stocky opponent in the early rounds but Loi came on strong at the end.
