Howard, who weighs about 230 and was a good enough basketball player at Ohio State University to be put on the pro Philadelphia Warrior's draft list, seems unaware of his baseball potential pr at least nonchalant about it He said he didn't know what kind of a pitch he hit off Robin Roberts for that rooftop homer Wednesday night. And he didn't know the size of his bat either, "AH he wants to do is play," said Dodgers manager Walt Alston.

He does, probably, need some seasoning. He went 0-4 last night while the Phils edged the Dodgers, 4-3. But as Phils manager Eddie Sawyer put It: "I saw Hank Greenberg when he broke in and he was awkward. This fellow Howard has good actions for a big man. He runs and throws pretty good too.

And he can mash that potato." BOSTON I CHICAGO abrhrbi abrhrbi DII.GHAr.TGil TRACTOR SUPPLY 447 Court St. Ph. 2-6448 FREE PARKING 40 in Rangers Camp Niagara Falls, Ont.

SEASON SERIES FOR NATS 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.

Dick Donovan (13-13) gave up seven hits for the White Sox. But he needed Turk Lown's mop Bowarq of Weak Substitutes up after giving up his only two walks (one to Runnels, who was l-for-3) and Williams' single in second baseman. Neither will he cause Ted Williams to worry about his batting titles. What was it all about? Just the wily Richards' latest scheme to get all the mileage he can from the defensively strong but weak-hitting Orioles. Let Richards explain it: "When we are on the road we might get off to a big first inning if I can get my better hitters into the lineup without having to take out my regulars.

1 If Harshman and Pappas come up, I can put in pinch hitters for them. Then when we take the field I can put in Busby and Gardner. At least its worth a try and we need to break our losing streak." Richards didn't say so but Busby and Gardner are' both top glove men but far from the best hitters on the club. It would be nice to report scheme netted some runs and both Busby and Gardner made miraculous catches to protect the lead. But it didn't work out that way.

Harshman's turn to bat came up. Dick Williams and Bob Nieman were on base with a single and a walk. In went Gene Woodling-, a dangerous lefthanded batter to face righthanded pitcher Ned Garver, but the Kansas City hurler got him out on a fly to right field to end the inning. Woodling, no longer a gazelle in the field, In turn was replaced by Busby. And Pappas, down in the seventh spot, was replaced by There maybe merit in Richards' newest maneuver but he picked a poor day to try it.
