CLEVELAND, July 29 ITV-The Cleveland Indians' two young lefthanders Herb Score and Hank Aguirre hurled a pair of shutouts over the Baltimore Orioles today. Score pitched a four-hitter to win the opener 3-0.

Aguirre followed with a seven-hit, 4-0 victory, aided by a three-run homer by Vic Wertz, his 24th of the season. In the second game, Wertz broke open 3 scoreless duel between Aguirre and Don Ferrarese with a blast over the right-field fence in the sixth inning.

1.01'IS By HARRY GRAYSON NEA Sport Editor 'EW YORK (XEA) There are competent observers who believe that the old pros who are the Dodgers will win one more pen-nant, but this could be the last run for the elder members of the party. The aging Brooks could fall flat on their fare, loo, as they have clearly demonstrated this season against the Braves and Reds. It easily oould turn out that the triumvirate running the Brooklyn franchise made the fatal mistake of letting a club grow old on them. You can bet that had Branch Rickey remained in Flatbush, more than one of the veterans would be playing out the string elsewhere. Mahatma would have put them on the market at a stage where he could get something for them, ti.

a diDi hn tntrpthpr lnncrpr than thev care to Lamar Tech Taking National Honors In Tennis, Golf BEAUMONT, Tex. (JP) Notre Oklahoma and others may find fortune in the major college football field but this is the story of a minor college that attained national recognition in five years in golf and tennis. Lamar Tech, nestling in Beaumont where it serves the great industrial rise of deep southeast Texas, is the college. This fast-growing school in six years has jumped from a junior college to a bristling four-year technical college with an enrollment of 4,688. Officials see a potential of 10,000 within the next decade.

Athletically ambitious, if along sound, conservative lines, Lamar Tech has entered all phases of collegiate sports. A 6 foot 4, 210-pound part Indian named Lewis Hilley was hired to develop tennis and golf. Hilley not only engineered a quick rise for Lamar in his assigned fields but he also became athletic director. In his first year, 1952, Tech won one. meet in tennis- and one in golf.

This year Tech has won lfi tennis meets, lost none and tied one that with Tulane, the 1955 NCAA national champion. In golf, the Cardinals captured 11 meets, dropped four and tied one. They also won both golf and tennis in the National Assn. of Intercollegiate Athletics. Lamar Tech hasn't picked on weak opposition to build its massive record in golf and tennis.

In the latter sport the Cardinal netmen beat Houston, Missouri Valley champion; Texas, Southwest Conference champion; tied Tulane, Southeastern and NCAA king, and bowled over such powers as Mississippi State, Rice, Georgia and Louisiana State. The Cards have done almost as well in golf. Hilley, in looking for talent which he could bring to Lamar despite stronger offers from major colleges, didn't let the country's boundary lines stop his vision. Discovering" good potential from tennis players in South America, Lewis reached for cream of the crop, On the Tech squad you will find such names as Eonaldo Moreira and Eugene' Sailer from Brazil, Ivan Salas from Chile, Guillermo Lemus from Mexico and Constantinos Gryzagorides from Greece. The No.

1 man, however, is James Schmidt of Galveston, conqueror this year of Tulane's NCAA champion, Jose Aguero. All of Hilley's golfers are from the United States. The Tech athletic director isn't putting tennis and golf ahead of other sports but he is just as interested in football, basketball and track. J'hese successes have served a purpose, nevertheless, 'and now Tech is finding it less difficult to lure outstanding men in other athletic branches. For instance, Tech has landed James Mellard, an all-state basketball player, and harnessed many promising football stars.

Tech's ambition, naturally, is to move into a major conference. The school now is in the Lone Star Conference, a league of small colleges. Macon Dodgers Blank Columbus 3-0 COLUMBUS, July 29 Scoring in the last two inning3 to support the three-hit pitching of Joe Gushanas, the Macon Dodgers swept the three-game South Atlantic series by defeating the Columbus Foxes today 3-0. It was the second straight shutout registered by the Macon mound staff, which allowed thts Foxes just 10 hits in the three games. The loss, was the fifth during the six-game home stand for the second-place Foxes.

Lou Letlow and Todd Sickc! had two hits each for the Dodgers, both of Letlow's singles figuring in the scoiing. The loss went to Mike Bur-ack, who had a shutout and a one-hitter going until the eighth. Eddie Machen, Redding, heavyweight who knocked out Nino scored knockouts in his first 10 professional battles. 3 F.N.G.

The Braves' lead over the runner-up Cincinnati Redlegs dwindled to 2Va games as the Redlegs swept a doubleheader with the Pittsburgh Pirates. Brooklyn's split with Chicago left the Dodgers four games back. It was Smalley's second three-bagger of the game and "scored Willie Jones and Andy Seminick, who had walked.

Richie Ashburn's single brought in Smalley to wind things up. The Braves had tied the game at 2-2 in the fifth on veteran Andy Pafko's 200th major league home run. Warren Spahn, who took his eighth defeat in 18 decisions, scored ahead of Pafko. The Phils, sweeping the two-game series to increase their season's edge over the leaders, went out in front on single runs in the opening innings. Granny Hamner singled home Ashburn, who had doubled, in the first.

In the second, Jim Green-grass scored when Ashburn's pop fly dropped between' Milwaukee third baseman Eddie Mathews and shortstop Johnny Logan, for a tainted single. Southpaw Curt Simmons was the winner, his fourth in a row. It was his seventh of the season against six defeats. The Phillies hit Spahn freely through 1-3 innings, but until the eighth-inning uprising he held the home side in check. Ray Crone relieved after Ashburn's single, and got the side out.

The Phillies have now won nine of their 15 games with the Braves, the only club in the league showing a credit against the Milwau- keeans.

Lake Worth's Kathy Cornelius Takes Open Golf DULUTH, July 29 (IP) Petite Mrs. Kathy Cornelius of Lake Worth, used her chipping iron as smothering pressure today and defeated amateur Barbara Mclntire by seven strokes in a playoff for the Women's National Open Golf Championship. Mrs. Cornelius, deadly around the greens, fired a one-over-par 75. The 21-year-old Miss Mclntire, a pretty college co-ed from Toledo, Ohio, saw her fine golf game go to shreds in almost every department for a wild score of 82.

It was a heart breaking comedown from her spectacular finishing surge yesterday when she shot a three-under-par 71 to tie Mrs. Cornelius for the title with a 72-hole score of 302. In today's pressurized 18-hole playoff, the brown-eyed brunette from Ohio constantly overshot the greens, pitched poorly and failed to make important putts. Mrs. Cornelius, 23-year-old wife of a professional, played brilliantly after a shaky start.

On one stretch of holes on the back nine, the 11th through the 15th, she one-putted five straight greens, a tribute to her chipping finesse. AH but one of these putts was under four feet the exception being a 25-foot sidehill roller for a three on the loth. Seixas Drops Larsen In 3 Straight Sets PHILADELPHIA, July 29 CP) Vic Seixas warmed up for next week's Davis Cup matches ajrainst Mexico with a straight set vie-tory today over Art Larsen, San Leandro, to win his seventh Pennsylvania State Lawn Tennis Championship at the Merion Cricket Clul). The 32-year-old Seixas played some of the finest tennis of hia career, smashing through the former national champion 7-5, 6-1, 6-4. Actually, this was a battle between America's two top ama-teur tennis players.

Seixag. 13 ranked second and Larsen third nationally. Tony Trabert was rated first in 1955 rankings but since hag turned professional. Thus, Seixas, of Philadelphia, reaffirmed his right to the title of No. 1 amateur in the nation and appeared ready to battle hard to retain his singles role on the U.

S. Davis Cup team. Seixas, who holds an edpre over Larsen in previous competition, kept the pressure on the Cali-fornian throughout. Credit for the second game victory went to Hershell Freeman, who relieved the Reds' starter, Don Gross, at the beginning of the eighth inning. Freeman finished the game, didn't allow a hit, fanned one and issued one walk.

Gross fanned seven Pirates, walked one and gave up seven hits including" a triple by Bill Virdon and a double by Frank Thomas. The second game loss was charged to the Pirate starter, Vernon Law, who gave up all 11 Cincinnati hits and was yanked in the ninth after Burgess had trapped him for his double. In the first game, Lawrence gave up only one extra base hit, a trip-pie by Lee Walls in the fourth inning which led to the Pirates only run when Walls scored on sacrifice fly by Clemente. Lawrence, who now has season record of 15 victories and two defeats, fanned two and gave up no walks. The Reds got four of their runs in the seventh inning on four singles, a sacrifice, a wild throw and a walk.

The loss was charged to Bob Friend, his ninth against 12 wins.

Tee Wee Reese and Jackie Robinson are 37, Roy Campanula and Carl Furillo 34, Gil Hodges 32. Most ballplayers start to tail off at 32. They lose that step. Their reflexes in the field aren't quite as sharp. Usually, the (food hitter continues to whack the ball as Ion? as his leg-s hoid out, but you'd never know that by looking at the Dodders' averages Campanella, Hodges, Reese, Robin-eon, .208.

THE DODGERS BEING cuffed by the guys most likely to beat them this season is additional evidence that Campanella, as this department has known all is their indispensable man. A lot of folks believed Duke Snider was, but the slugging outfielder, who has been off this trip, too, doesn't nurse the pitchers. The Brooks' record coincides with the burly backstop's alternate good and bad years. There are schooled baseball men who suspect that Campanella may be as washed up as F.zzard Charles, but they said the same thing in 1934, when he underwent an operation for the removal of a bone chip from the back of his left hand. Now he suf- fers pain gripping a bat because of a bone spur in the joint of the right thumb.

17" The productive Brooklyn chain has had a serious shortage of catchers. Now, -Walter O'Malley, Buzzy Bavasi, Fresco Thompson to. believe they have one in Johnny Roseboro, a left-hand batter with Montreal. The trouble, is that young Roseboro may be a year or two away. PAUL KRICHELL TALKS to his boy, Whitey Ford, before each (tart at Yankee Stadium.

"Remember what I told you about a big game," the venerable chief of Bomber scouts reminds the left-hander. "The white shirts in center field, the tenseness of the other guyi." Ford turned in a masterpiece, edging Billy Tierce snd the "White Sox, 2-l with a three-hitter before 61,351, the largest crowd of the campaign in either league. "The bigger the game the easier it is to win," says Krichell, the old catcher who has found key Yankees down through the years. I've demonstrated this in World Series with Marius Rusao, Hank Borowy, Bill Bevens, Ford and other pitchers. When the other side is pressing, and he has the big crowd and white-shirt background, all a pitcher has to do is be natural get a piece of the plate with his fast and breaking ball.

He's crazy trying to pitch to spots and weaknesses. That only gets him behind the hitter." Come to think of it, that's all an accomplished pitcher has to do on any occasion but, with true Yankee thoroughness, Paul Krichell sees to it that his boys have the main idea before they make a mistake. Walker also singled, Rush was replaced by Turk Lown who retired the side after Jackie Robinson's pinch single. The opener was a tight battle between Newcombe and Jim Davis, who pitched his first complete game since Aug. 29, 1954.

Each pitcher gave only five hits. Reese's game-winner into the left-field stands was his seventh of the season, assuring Newcombe of his 15th victory. The Cubs gave big Nevvk a scare in the ninth when Dee Fondy doubled with one out, but Ernie Banks fouled out and Walt Moryn Died deep to Snider. rirat Came HICAGO BKOOKI.VN an a ah a a a Drake rf 4 14 0 Gilliam 2b 4 0 4 3 Baker 2b nt6 1 3 2 Reese 4 12 1 Kondv In 4 2 5 0 Fern'dz 0 0 0 0 Bank's as 4 0 2 2 Snider cf 2 13 0 Morvn rf 3 0 10 Furillo rf 4 0 3 0 King If 2 0 2 0 Jackson 3b 3 0 14 H.ak 3b 3 0 1 2 Hodges 3 2 10 0 Chitl 3 0 8 0 Amoroa If 3 010 Ca'pan'lla Sill N'wcombe 2 0 0 1 Tolala 30 3 24 1 Total.
