Podres. Only Game Scheduled. Fernandez still hitting for the Phils Chico big help as Philadelphia beat off Dodgers By ED WILKS Associated Press Sports Writer No one ever has accused Eddie Sawyer of being buddy-buddy with his guys but he's a great man for psychology as a retread manager with the Philadelphia Phillies. Just a few days ago he took a swipe at Chico Fernandez, the chipper, proud shortstop peddled to the Phils by the Dodgers' last year. "He hasn't shown me a thing," said Sawyer, the pennant skipper of 1950 who returned as Phils' manager July 22.

If Chico hasn't shown Sawyer anything since then, Sawyer just hasn't been looking. Sunday, the day after Sawyer's dig, the Ph ls lost a double-header to Cincinnati, but Chico was 5- for-S and drove in a rim. Tuesday he doubled home the Phils' first run when they beat Los Angeles 4-3 and ended their losing string at seven. Wednesday, Fernandez was hitless. but the Phils beat Los Angeles 8-6.

Thursday night, Chico really beat the rap. He tied the game with a two-run single, then stole s-'-mri and counted the winning run. on Dave Philley's pinch single for a three-run eighth inning that beat the Dodgers 4-3. It was fh" only same scheduled In the National League. In the American League, first place New York was idle.

The Chicago White Sox whipped Boston 4-1, Washington tripped Detroit 7-6 and Kansas City defeated Baltimore 7-1. frain to leave here at 7:30 sharp Fans holding tickets for the Junior Chamber of Commerce sp sored baseball special to see the Yankees and A's play a double header Sunday, are reminded once more to be in their seats at 7:15 Sunday morning.

Bush, who in the opinion of many, tops the field of after dinner speakers, told of the ups and downs in coaching. And after his victories over K.U. (Chamberlain and Company) and Kansas State College the past season, no one could hardly be more versed on the subject.

Fullmer in ID-rounder Fullmer's boss now wants crack at Sugar Ray SALT LAKE CITY (AP) Former middleweight champ Gene Fullmer Thursday night applied the 'pressure for another title shot with a 10-round unanimous decision over sharpshooter Spider Webb. Fullmer weighed for the full-distance brawl with 159V4- pound Webb of Chicago. Marv Jenson, manager of Fullmer, said the West Jordan, Utah, windmill is entitled to "a crack at (Sugar Ray) Robinson now, but we'll take (Carmen) Basilio anytime." Robinson lost his crown to Fullmer more than a year ago in a New York decision, won it back with a Chicago knockout, handed it to Basilio and then won it back again. Sugar Ray was the only man to put Fullmer away for the count. Webb said after Thursday night's loss.

"I don't think he would The nearly 8,000 equally divided fans roared their approval as both fighters bombarded through every round and finished up with a toe- to-toe slugfest. Referee Harry Kessler gave it to Fullmer 96-94. Judge Frank Carter had Fullmer on the long end 97-93 and Judge Vern Bybee gave Fullmer a 97-95 edge. The Associated Press card had Fullmer winning, 96-94. MEADOWDALE RACES CARPENTERSVILLE, 111.

C. Wichita Braves, Denver gain edge By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Wichita's potent Braves and the Denver Bears used different tacks Thursday night in gaining the edge in their American Assn.

baseball semifinal playoffs with Minneapolis and Charleston, The Tribe' had five home runs among 13 hits in a 9-2 shellacking of Minneapolis, while Denver's Mark Freeman two-hit the regular season champions in a 3-0 triumph. Both Wichita and Denver now lead in their best-of-seven game playoff series, two games to one. The teams reverse their playing sites Friday night, moving to Minneapolis and to Denver for the remaining games in the series. out the KU and KS games, he reminded Orangemen that despite the tough breaks witnessed here before the seasn opens, desire and determination will off set such beaks. "You are never defeated before game time, the bad breaks just mean one thing you must work harder and have a greater desire," he reminded the young Orangemen.

As an example of desire to become an athlete, he pointed out the career of Bus Whitehead, well known to many here. He explained that Bus was a gangly, clumsy basketball "player to be" when he enrolled at the University of Nebraska. "But Bus had desire. He even worked out with the track team, not to help the cinder squad, but to let the trackmen help him," Jerry explained. Determination Hard work and great determination resulted in Whitehead becoming a Nebraska "great" in basketball.

He was selected on the All-Big 7 team and later was Ail- American in AAU basketball. While referring to individuals he cited the case of Jim Kubacki, and his last second shot last season which downed KU. He told how Kubacki, a mere 5-8 eager, pleaded time after time to enter the game. Jim was not in uniform due a bad knee. At last Coach Bush thought with time running out, that Kubacki could not get suited in time to enter the game and further injure his bad knee.

"Get he told the anxious Kubacki, Bush told his listeners that it took Jim such a short time to return in his togs that he must have had his uniform on under his street clothes. With time running out and Kansas leading, Bush instructed the Huskers to wait for a last ditch poke at the Gage History The rest made basketball history as fans will recall it was Kubacki who took the long desperation shot which gave Nebraska the biggest victory of the nation's basketball season. "I didn't mind the dunking," Jerry said, referring to the trip to the pool. After upsetting Kansas State, the popular and talented coach had no complaints when his cagers gave him a victory shower. "They were the greatest victories in my coaching career," said the former basketball star who twice was named AH-Ameri can and later was selected as one of the greatest pro cagers of all times.

The films of Bush were taken by TV cameramen, and showed him going thru the "sweating out periods" while sitting on the bench. Applaud Squad Head Coach Hank Riechel introduced his staff of Bernie Guy, Jerry Landwer and Don Dahlin, and also introduced each member of the BHS squad.

(Sun Photo) Huskers suffer blow, Olson and Daniels out LINCOLN (AP) -Nebraska football coach Bill Jennings took a couple of socks on the chin Thursday. But the affable coach was still able to smile and find some sunshine in his life.

He lost tackle Don Olson of Grand Island and center Bob Daniels of Wichita, Kas. Olson, who played 439 minutes last year and was counted on to bulwark the Husker line this fall, gave up play for the season because of shoulder and rib injuries. Daniels was sidelined on order of team doctors. He has been suffering from a virus infection. Daniels was the No.

2 center. The double blow might well have caused Jennings to hie himself off to the storm center. But the coach took a deep breath and came up with the comment that the fullback situation was looking mighty good. He was well pleased with the play of captain Mike McCashland and Carroll Zaruba. McCashland is the No.

1 fullback, having gone back to the position he played in high school. He was a guard as a sophomore on the Husker squad and a center last year. Zarbuba was hobbled by in- juries last year but has been going great this fall. "Their play has been good both offense and defense," said Jennings. Jennings also said that Don Jordan, junior college guard transfer from Nashville, was a doubtful participant this fall.

Thinning of the Husker ranks has Jennings considering calling off a final game scrimmage this week. In the absence of Olson, 'the No. 1 right tackle job is up for grabs between a pair of sophomores, Joe Gascusana of Lincoln and Al Wellman of Desmet, S. D. MODECfiS heads to meet Sept 15 ADAMS Supt.

C. P. Nickeson announces that all officials and coaches who are from schools belonging to the MUDECAS. are to be on hand the night of Sept. 15 for the annual meeting of the organization.

The meeting will be held in the high school here starting at 8 p. m. "Many important matters of business are to be discussed, everyone plan now to attend," he reminded. The Cornhuskers will follow the same pre-game routine as they did last year, Jennings said. The squad will spend Friday nights previous to home games in a local hotel.

Husker Assistant Dick Monroe will handle the major part of scout work this fall. Monroe, although serving as the freshman coach in 1957, did most of the scouting at that time also. Freshman squad assistants, according to head frosh mentor Warren Schmakel, will be Bill Smith, wrestling coach; Bill Schabacher and Jack Braley, both former Husker players. Varsity coaches also will alternate as frosh backfield tutors, Jennings said. Blue Rock Shoot Sunday Sept.

AMERICAN ASSN. Denver 3, Charleston 0 (Denver leads 2-1) Wichita 9, Minneapolis 2 (Wichita leads 2-1) Ted Williams is tied for league batting lead By ED WILKS Associated Press Sports Writer Well, well, look who's tied for lead. A guy named Williams from Boston. It's been a long haul. All that fuss over his ankle in the spring, and missing opening day because of food poisoning.

He didn't get over .300 until July 1. Then he had another spit spat with a booing crowd. He spent his 40th birthday fighting a virus. The sickness kept him out of action from Aug. 24 to last Tuesday, when he was fifth in the batting race at .315.

He has gone 5-for-ll since, tying teammate Pete Runnels for the lead at .320 Thursday with a 2-for-4 day as the Red Sox lost 4-1 at Chicago. Right behind is Bob Cerv of Kansas at .319, with Cleveland's Viq, Power fourth at .315. Williams, shooting for his sixth title (although a far cry from his winning .388 of last season, drove numberatfive. Washington took a season series from Detroit for the first time since 1954 by beating the Tigers 7-6, and Kansas City belted Baltimore 7-1 in the only other AL games scheduled. Philadelphia beat Los Angeles 4-3 in the only National League game.

Dick Donovan (13-13) threw a seven-hitter for the White Sox. But he needed Turk Lown's mop- up after he gave up his only two walks (one to Runnels, who was l-for-3) and Williams' single in the eight inning. The White Sox counted their four in the fifth. Two-out, two-run singles by Jim Landis and Nellie Fox did it against Ike Delock (12-7). Roy Sievers and Albie Pearson each drove in two runs for the Senators.

John Romonosky (2-4) won it in relief. He retired the first 17 men he faced, but needed Ted Clevenger's. help to put down a thre-run Tiger try in the ninth. Al Cicotte (3-4) lost it. Ned Carver, knocked off the Birds for the fourth time in six decisions this season with a four- hitter.

They scored on two singles and a fly ball in the third inning, but Garver (12-10), a Comeback of the Year possibility, gave up only one more hit, none after the fifth. Preston Ward's sacrifice fly gave the A's a 2-1 led in the fifth against Billy O'Dell (14-11). Cerv's lone hit was his 33rd home run, a two-on shot that capped a five- run eighth.
