Still Celebrating Logansport, Richmond In Crucial NCC Tests South Bend Central Tops UPI Poll; Richmond 11th league encounter sends Tech of Sox Place Hopes On Wynn Today Trying To Even Series; Dodgers Attempt To End It With Podres By Jack Hand CHICAGO (AP) With partly sunny weather and temperatures in the 70s forecast, the sixth World Series game will be played in Comiskey Park Thursday. The 39-year-old Early Wynn will try to hold the fort for the desperate Chicago White Sox and Johnny Podres will attempt to close it out for the Los Angeles Dodgers. Both clubs flew into town in the wee small hours after a night plane ride from Los Angeles where attendance records fell on each of the three sunny after the select circle, tying Indianapolis Wood for seventh place. Wood was tied for 10th with Indianapolis Washington a week ago.

Vincennes clung to sixth position, but the other positions in the "Big 10" had new occupants. New Members Hobart, conqueror of Gary Roosevelt, moved up from fifth to fourth spot, but five other clubs skidded. Evansville Memorial slipped from fourth to fifth, Goshen from seventh to ninth, Michigan City to 14th and Gary Roosevelt to 15th. The latter two tied for eighth last week. Indianapolis 1 Washington, tied for 10th last time but tied by city foe Sacred Heart last Friday, failed to draw a single vote.

Bremen, which bested Plymouth last week, and Lafayette, winner of three straight, were the only brand-new addition to the ranks. Also dropped were Indianapolis Shortridge, South Bend Adams, South Bend Washington, Elwood, Rushville, and Fort Wayne Central. The breakdown, with first places and total points: 1.

Columbus Sugar Kings' Win HAVANA (AP) Havana Wednesday still celebrated the Cuban Sugar Kings' crowning as Little World Series champions. The Sugar Kings of the Inter national League came from behind a 2-0 score Tuesday night to beat Minneapolis of the American Assn.

3-2 on Danny Morejon's two-out single in the ninth inning. This gave the Cubans the cham pionship, four games to three. Donovan By Shaw By Bob Shaw As told to UPI LOS ANGELES (UPI) I'm sure thankful for Dick Donovan! In that eighth inning when I got in trouble, I knew I had to go. I didn't feel tired but it's silly to gamble in a game like this. I would like to have finished of course but this isn't the place to take chances.

When Al Lopez came out to the mound he told me, You pitched real good ball: Then I didn't feel so bad about having Donovan take over. I want everyone to know I was at fault for that wild pitch I threw when Charley Neal was at bat Put the blame on me. I crossed up the catcher (Sherm Lollar). I should have thrown a slider and I nodded my head when he gave me the signal for it. But somehow I was thinking of a fast ball and that's what I threw.

It wasn't Sherm's fault that the ball got away. I think this was a much better game than the one I pitched in Chicago. Jim Gilliam hit me pret-j ty good, but then he's a good hitter. I tried my fast ball, too, and he whacked it against the screen in left. I had a few rough seconds in the seventh when Neal hit that long one to right field.

I pitched the ball just the way I wanted to, but for a minute I thought that was it when he got hold of it. Then I saw Jim Rivera had it. When I walked Chuck Essegian in the seventh it was simply because I didn't want to give him anything good. Remember he got a homer off me in that Chicago game. I tried to keep the ball low to him and I did a little too low I guess.

We have another chance now and I think we'll do okay at home. Espie Is Winner MEMPHIS, Tenn.

Last year's North Central con ference co-champions, Logansport and Richmond, receive their first major tests of the 1959 campaign Friday night in what could result in two classic contests. The Berries, unbeaten in five starts this season, welcome the invading Muncie Central Bearcats, who have bounced back to even their standing at 2-2 after two early defeats by La Porte and East Chicago Washington. Richmond will appear on the Kokomo Wildcats' home grounds. The Red Devils are 2-0 in the conference and lost only to Short ridge of Indianapolis outside. Ko komo is 1-1 in the league.

Tough Tests Both the Berries and Red Devils figure to be extended as they head into their crucial meeting, which is scheduled for next week at Richmond. The two rivals did not play last year when both fin ished 5-0 in the NCC deadlock. Lafayette, the other member holding a 2-0 conference record, goes to New Castle as the favorite to hand the Trojans another setbackw. Jeff boasts a 4-1 mark over-all as the Broncho grid for tunes appear on the rise. Anderson, which rocked Marion last week for its first NCC tri umph, shoots to square that rec ord at 2-2 when the Frankfort Hot Dogs come to town.

The other Turnesa Scores WOODMERE. N. Y. (AP) Jim Turnesa, former PGA champion, won the Metropolitan Open golf crown with a score of 286 for 72 holes. The pro from Elmsford, N.

beat out Shelley Mayfield of Meadow Brook at Jericho, N. by one stroke. Mayfield had a chance to tie on the final hole but his attempt to sink a 10-foot putt just missed the cup. day and Tuesday's practice sessions were two of the best recently. Oberle was pleased with the work shown by Scott Stanley, a 140-pounnd offensive guard.

Stanley sparkled in blocking for the passer. The Quakers worked on the fundamental of football, blocking and running, two of the glaring weaknesses of the team. Lack Speed Lack of speed has handicapped the college eleven on attack, not only in the backfield but up in the forward wall as well. There haven't always been adequate holes for the backfield men. "Our offense is built with speed in mind," Oberle said, "but in the two games the offensive holes open and close before the backs can get through them.

"We're still a young and inexperienced club and I recognize that," Oberle added, pointing to his offensive line-up that includes three first-year men, six second-year players and two three-year veterans.

(AP) Ru-dell Stitch moved back into the win column Wednesday night by outpointing welterweight Ralph Dupas in a 10-round bout at Freedom Hall. Dupas, who bounced around the ring like a rubber ball, was unable to get in close enough to do much damage to the local boy. Stitch, loser to Luis Rodriguez last month, caught the third-ranking welterweight contender with sharp head and body blows in the fourth and eighth rounds and was going strong in the 10th. Dupas, who came into the ring at 145 pounds, scored most of his points in the late rounds when he finally began moving in on his 144-pound opponent. Neither fighter was marked dur ing the nationally televised (ABC) bout before 2,500 persons.

It was the 22nd win in 28 starts for Stitch while Dupas now has a 77-13-6 record. Stitch dropped to No. 8 in the National Boxing Assn. rankings after he was upset by Rodriguez. Referee Sidney Baer scored it 49-47 for Stitch, Judge Tom Nuck-les scored it 47-46 for Stitch and Judge Don Asbury had it 50-43 for Stitch.

Won't Contest Failure To Get Promoting OK NEW YORK (AP) The New York State Athletic Commission said Wednesday Vincent J. Velel-la had withdrawn an application for a hearing on the commission's refusal to grant him a license to promote boxing at St. Nicholas Arena. Velella applied in August for a license to promote boxing for Electronics Sports Corporation. He was listed as president, treas urer and sole stockholder.

The commission denied the license on Aug. 14, giving no reason. The Harlem attorney is presi dent and majority stockholder of Rosensohn Enterprises, which holds the contracts for the return Ingemar Johansson-Floyd Patterson heavyweight title fight. Velella visited Miami a few days ago to look into the possibility of staging Johansson's defense against Patterson there next February. Vigorous Action Will Be Taken Against Wallman NEW YORK (UPI)-Chairman Melvin Krulewitch of the New York State Athletic Commission said Wednesday he will take vigorous action against an at tempt by suspended fight manager Hymie (The Mink) Wallman to escape the jurisdiction of the commission.

Wallman's license as a manag er and second were suspended July 3, 1958, for "conduct detri mental to the best interests" of boxing. Through his counsel, Mi chael Kern, Wallman has peti tioned the court "to prohibit and restrain the commission from continuing jurisdiction over him as a suspended licensee." The commission now has been ordered by the court to show cause why it should not be pro hibited from taking any further action in "the Herman Wallman matter." The hearing has been set for Oct. 19, 1959 in the Supreme Court, New York County, The commission retains juris diction in this case despite the fact that the term of the license of Mr. Wallman expired as of a previous date" Krulewitch stated Lee Substituted For Sonny Liston In Oct. 14 Bout HOUSTON, Tex.

(UPI) Match maker Donald Milheim Wednes day announced that Curley Lee of Los Angeles had been substituted for Charles (Sonny) Liston in a nationally televised match with Cleveland Williams here Oct. 14. Liston notified Milheim Tuesday that he was withdrawing from the bout because of a hand injury. Lee has a dozen knockouts and only one defeat in 15 fights. His latest knockout victim was Howard King.

Liston had been guaranteed 000 for the match after he had kayoed Williams Apr. 15 in Miami. Jim Bailey, brother of Cincinnati's catcher Ed Bailey, was called up from Nashville after he won 10 of his last 12 decisions. He is a 6-foot-2 southpaw pitcher. By Kurt Freudenthal INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) The two northern powerhouses, South Bend Central and East Chicago Washington, remained solid fav orites for Indiana high school football honors Wednesday, running 1-2 for the third straight week in the United Press International coaches poll.

And Logansport was third for the second week in a row. The South Benders collared 8 of 10 first-place votes and a total of 98 points, 7 more than East Chicago's Senators, who got the two other first-place nods. Logansport claimed 72 votes in balloting for games through last Saturday. North Central of Marion County, a school only four years old, crashed the "Big 10" for the first time, climbing from a tie for 19th spot to 10th. The Panthers own a 4-game winning streak.

Evansville North, a southern power ranked 10th in the first poll but voted down to a tie for 13th last week, was promoted back into EIAC Names New Officers At Meeting BROOKVILLE The Eastern Indiana Athletic conference (EIAC) held a meeting at the Mounds restaurant, south of here, Wednesday evening. Lloyd Frazer, Cambridge City principal, was elected president, replacing Brookville principal George McKinney, and Cambridge City coach Thurman Wright replaced Brookville coach John Col lier as secretary-treasurer. The 1958-59 all-sports trophy was officially awarded to Aurora. The Aurora teams did not have a single first place to their credit but used good balance in taking the crown. The Freshman and team tourneys will be held at Cambridge City on Jan.

16. The football coaches of the EIAC will hold a meeting on Wednesday, Oct. 28, to select an all-conference team. A discussion of an insurance program for the entire con- erence was held. The next meeting of the EIAC will take place the Wednesday following the state basketball finals.

Sox Change Own Socks And Luck By Jerry Liska Associated Press Sports Writer CHICAGO (AP) The Chicago White Sox are back in the World Series after they changed their socks and their script The Chi-Sox showed up for the fifth series game against the Dodgers in Los Angeles Tuesday wearing their regular stockings which have a predominant black background. They ditched their new "series" hosiery, an elegant combination featuring white. This was the joint idea of owner Bill Veeck and trainer Ed Froe- lich. Froelich brought along the old socks, just in case. Veeck sent along the word to have the old socks flown from Chicago, nec essary, for Tuesday's "must Sox game.

But they were on hand and donned without argument by the backs against the wall Chi- cagoans. As for the script change, the Sox who didn't do anything right for most of 33 World Series innings finally did everything right by reverting to their patented cliff-hanging script in two hectic innings against the enter prising Dodgers. After wasting hits like they were free and stumbling both afield and running the bases, the White Sox pushed all the correct buttons in their thrilling 1-0 conquest of the Dodgers. Manager Al Lopez sent in Jun gle Jim Rivera for a sensational spearing of a potential two run clout in the seventh and called upon doughty Dick Donovan for a magnificent relief job in the eighth. Wants To Buy Nats If Griffith Is Willing To Sell WASHINGTON (AP) Former U.S.

Sen. George H. Bender of Ohio says he wants to buy the Washington Senators if Calvin Griffith is willing to sell the American League club. Bender said he would go as high as seven million dollars to buy the club and keep it in Washing ton. He made his offer during re newed discussion of possibilities that the Washington franchise may be transferred to Minne apolis.

He said he tried to buy the club about three years ago when the possible shift to Minneapolis was first discussed. Griffith, in Los Angeles attend ing the World Series, disclosed Tuesday that the latest offer from Minneapolis has been re ceived but said he has not yet seen it. He indicated that the of fer will be taken up with the board of directors after the se ries. Earlham Goach Plans In Effort To Improve noons. Instead of the full throated "charge" cheers from 92,000 fans, Comiskey will echo with the "go go" screams of 48,000 customers as the Sox try to level the series at 3 games each.

Rescued by the clutch pitching of Bob Shaw and Dick Donovan and the spectacular running catch by Jim Rivera in Tuesday's fifth game, the White Sox were the choice to win Thursday. The Dodgers, however, remain a solid favorite to win the series. Only three clubs ever have bounced back from a 3-1 deficit to win a world championship. One of them, the 1903 Boston Red Sox did it in a best-of-nine series. The 925 Pittsburgh Pirates rallied in 1925 against Washington.

And of course the New York Yankees cud it against Milwaukee last year. Alston's Choice Podres was Manager Walter Alston's choice to work in Chicago, Quarterback Club Opens Year Oct 14 Only one week remains to join the Richmond Quarterback club, president E. C.

This kick-off film should be an exciting one to watch if football polls can be used as a judge. Purdue is ranked seventh nationally in The Associated Press ratings and Wisconsin ninth. Purdue is eighth in the United Press Inter national coaches' poll and Wiscon sin ninth.

Films of the Notre Dame-Northwestern game, to be played on Oct. 24, will be shown here on Oct. 28 by Ed (Moose) Krause, Notre Dame athletic director. The final meeting of the year, on Nov. 11, with feature films of the Indiana-Ohio State battle on Nov.

Murphy, 150. Bowlettes Margaret Lee fired high game of 206 and added lines of 171 and 143 for high series of 520. Catherine Smith had games of 177, 170 and 156 for a 503 series. Other high games included: Peggy Brown, 183; Linnie Gregg, 175; June Hay, 179 and 170; Jane Boughiier, 185; Virginia Hays, 165; Rose Brattain, 166; Mary Angi, 173; Nancy Witte, 164; Marge Atkinson, 169; Betty Hard- man, 164, and Edith Melling, 172.

All-Stars James Wickersham fired high game of 255 and added scores of 210 and 180 for high series of 645. Other 600-plus series included Albert McCray, 615, with games of 212, 215 and 188, and Robert if necessary, even before the fifth game. The 27-year-old left-hander from Witherbee, N.Y., was a 4-3 winner in the second game at Comiskey Park when the Dodgers rallied after he departed for pinch hitter Chuck Essegian.

He was a two-time winner for the Dodgers in 1955 when they captured their only World Series. "Johnny likes to pitch at Comiskey Park," said Alston. "He can use his change of pace more than he can at home. In the Coliseum he is reluctant to use it, especially against right-handed batters. He is a better pitcher when he has more room." If Podres fails him, Alston has right-handed Don Drysdale ready for a seventh game on Friday.

Of course, the handy man at all times will be young Larry Sherry who worked in three of the first five games and allowed only one run in seven innings. Wynn has been manager Al Lopez' money pitcher all season. The husky right-hander from Nok-omis, led the majors with 22 victories and was the only 20- game winner in the American League as he and Shaw pitched the White Sox to the pennant. Defense Costly It was Wynn who worked the 11- 0 opening game slaughter of the Dodgers until his right elbow tightened and he was removed in the eighth inning. Shoddy defens ive play by his usually alert mates cost him dearly Monday when he was removed in the third inning, trailing 4-0 in a game eventually won on Gil Hodges home run off Gerry Staley.

Hodges, making a fine come back after a so-so year in 1957. is the leading hitter among the regulars in the first five games with eight hits in 18 trips for a .444 average. Nellie Fox, who came within one hit of tying a series record with five straight hits Sunday and Monday, has been the most consistent batter for Chicago with eight hits and a .400 average. Shortstop Luis Aparicio and first baseman Ted Kluszewski have seven hits each. The White Sox faced the future with much more confidence now that they can finish play in their home pork with its more comfortable outfield distances.

Instead of 251 feet to a screen in left, the mileage at Comiskey is 352 feet It also is 352 feet in right and 415 feet to the bullpen in center. However, five of the seven home runs hit so far were slugged at Comiskey. Scores Sittrich, 608, on lines of 188, 216 and 205.

He scored on Dave Pflum's single.

Bruce Price had two of Al- quina's three hits while Dave Pflum had the other and also did the pitching. He fanned 14 and walked only two. He also only gave up two hits.

The normally jovial coach, start ing his first year at the helm of the football team, was in a seri ous mood Tuesday afternoon as he talked about the future of his eleven. "I figured we'd be slow develop ing, but I didn't figure we'd take these kind of beatings," Oberle said in reference to the successive 27-0 and 33-0 losses to Ashland and Franklin colleges. Changes are being made in preparation for the Quakers' first road game of the season, Saturday at the University of Illinois, Chicago branch.
