But not as bad as Pearson tore up the rest of the touring NASCAR troupe Sunday an occurrence that has become somewhat commonplace this year in Winston Cup circles.

Sunday's triumph was his sixth in only 10 starts tins year, all of them with the benefit of Glen, Leonard and Delano Wood, who superviseithe operation of the No. 21 Purolator Mercury that Pearson calls "my ticket to a good living." Pearson's victories have not been "cheapies" either. He has won some of the most prestigious events in American racfrtg the Winston Western Daytona 500, Atlanta 500, Rebel 900 at Darting-ton.

Moreover, he credits the in-fielders for much of his success. "As a sinker ball pitcher, a good infield is what I have to hive, and that's what I've got," TJ. said Sunday, sharply contrasting remarks made by Marshall who was quoted saying that at times the infield-ers resemble "cigar store indians." With considerable help from the cigar store, J.

Of the 27 putouts, 20 were turned in by either Steve Gar-vey, Dave Lopes, Ron Cey or Bill RusseU. There was a double play and there were no errors. "Lopes and Russell have great range John said, "Cey is steady as can be and Garvey is simply a great athlete." Cey, as he's done all Reason, contributed with the bat, tdb, driving a two-run homer the third faming.

It was his llth-ot the season sweep of the lowly Expos, enabling the Dodgers to earn a split in the 14-game homestand as they head out today for 10 games against the Mets, Expos, Reds and Astros beginning Tuesday night in New York. Dodger of the day TOMMY JOHN burled first complete game in two years, beat-big Montreal, "The infield we have is very good defensively," TJ; continued, "and that's a major reason why I'm pitching better here than I did to Chicago." For the record, T.J., the off-the- people laughed when Ron Alike encouraged Dwight Stones to enroU at Long Beach State. They said Stones was an egomaniac, the aD-time flake. You'll be sorry, Ron. Weu, they were wrong.

Totally wfong. Parget the fact mat Stones hoBed his world high jump record under Iter colors. No one ever questioned his superstar status as an athlete. More important, Stones was elected a tri-captain of the Long Beach State track and field team, and has taken this responsibility seriously.

In the tag run. Stones is destined to become as important to the Long Beach State athletic program as ff'skfflwll all-America Eddie and the Dodger third baseman now has 41 runs batted in. John, though, had to survive a shaky first inning in which a collection of singles, only one of them hit with gusto, put him in feopardy. "I know I'm throwing good," he said, shaking his head, "because my ball is moving and I'm throwing strikes. But a ball off the end of the bat and a bunt and suddenly I'm against the wall and about to go out of the game.
