24-WAUSAU DAILY RECORD-HERALD-MERRILL DAILY HERALD THURSDAY. MAY 20. 1971 Four teams vie McLaren racers top Indy field Williams, Jenkins cool off hot Giants for Big 10 title Chess game is adjourned again VANCOUVER (AP) The second game between Bobby Fischer of Los Angeles, and Mark Taimanov of the Soviet Union in a quarter-final elimination round to determine a -challenger for the world chess, championship was adjourned Wednesday on the 73rd It was the second adjourh-'. ment of the game, which began Tuesday. Wednesday's continuation began on the 45th move.

Fischer holds a 1-0 lead in the 10-match series. Diminishing program' In 1952 NYU dropped football, from its varsity sports This year it has dropped basketball and track. "No driver is going to sand-' Granatelli insisted, "getting ready for this race." Bobby Unser, chatting with the STP master mechanic during a Thursday shower, agreed. The USAC committee since then has reduced the air intake area allowed turbine engines on two occasions, virtually taking them out of competition. Bobby Unser did 175.816 in a Gurney Eagle with a turbo-charged Offenhauser engine similar to that used by the McLarens.

In 1967, Jones and his Pratt Whitney turbine engine were only the sixth-fastest qualifier at 166.075. Mario Andretti won the pole at 168.982 with a conventional engine but lost a wheel in the race. Jones ran away from the field in the first lap and led A. J. Foyt Jr.

by two miles when a bearing failed with 10 miles to go. Vince Granatelli, whose brother Andy heads the STP gasoline and oil additive company, is still doing a slow burn games, playing two at Illinois Friday and a pair at Purdue Saturday. The rest ofythe final card involves also-rans, including Ohio State (4-8) at Wisconsin (6-8) and Indiana (4-8) at Northwestern (2-12) Friday, and Ohio State at Northwestern and Indiana at Wisconsin Saturday. As the only club among the four contenders winding up at home, Illinois probably holds the key to the potential photofinish. "If Michigan State wins three of its last four games, it's all over," said Illini coach Lee El-bracht.

"We definitely need some help, especially from due Friday." However, Michigan State also can cinch at least a share of the title by winning two of its last four games, assuring the Spartans of a 12-4 record. In that event, even a Minnesota sweep of its twin bill at Iowa would leave the Gophers, with 13-5, behind percentagewise, .722 to MSU's .750, while Michigan would have to sweep four against Illinois and Purdue to also iinish with 12-4 and .750. league-leading strikeout total to 76 with seven whiffs. Williams drilled a three-run homer in the first inning off rookie Steve Stone to launch the Cubs to their season's first victor' over the NL West-leading Giants in six starts. "I don't consider myself a home run hitter, I'm just a wind-blown home run hitter," smiled the lean left fielder.

Billy also used a 23-mile per hour favoring wind to slam a leadof homer in the third and sew up the game with a two-run triple off Wrigley Field's centerfield wall in the sixth. "That triple was my hardest hit ball of the day," said Wil-liams. "The main thing I try to do is go up there and see the ball and hit it solid. I'm strictly a line-drive hitter." Jenkins is of to a better start than in any of his previous four straight seasons as a 20-game winner. "Asked team mate Ernie Banks: "When was the last time our league had a 30-game winner? At his pace, I think Fergy will have you press gentlemen getting out the record book soon." Jenkins, displaying phenomenal control again, walked only the first Giant batter yesterday in his nine-hit effort which included a two-run homer by Dick Dietz and solo shots by Hal Lanier and Bobby Bonds.

The big right-hander has issued only two walks in his last 65 innings and a season total of seven unintentional walks in 84 innings. Fondling two balls that will be enshrined in the Canadian Hall of Fame, Jenkins said "I just try to throw strikes and keep the ball down. With a wind blowing, like yesterday, you try to avoid giving up the long ball and hope for just solo homers against you." Jenkins displayed the baseballs from his 97th and 98th career victories, tying and breaking the previous high by a Canadian major leaguer, Ted Ford. Jenkins now has a big league record of 99-70. CHICAGO (AP) The Chicago Cubs found a way to cool off San Francisco's sizzling Giantsthe home run bat of Billy Williams and strong-armed pitching of Ferguson Jenkins.

Williams, who claims "I'm no run hitter" with a career total of 302, drove across six runs with two circuit blasts and a triple yesterday to back Jenkins' seventh straight pitching success in a wind blown 9-5 conquest of the Giants. Jenkins, now 8-2 and the National League's winningest hurl-er, yielded three of the game's six homers, but finished strong for his seventh straight complete game and swelled his Jft FISH FRIES Chicken Shrimp FRIDAYS Free Hall Available For Parties Now Serrint Chicken on Sunday Special Menu lor Weight losers CARTERS RED BRICK BAR Corner Hwv. and Weston Ave. PTASHOW SAT. 1:30 ADM.

si n-r 45 5651 310 fOUHTH ST. lift ISAM I Tl rV INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. (AP) "The McLarens have a bigger advantage than Parnelli Jones' STP turbine had in 1967," said Bobby Unser, who will start beside the Mark 16 McLarens of Peter Revson and Mark Donohue in the front row of the 55th 500-mile race May 29 at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Vince Granatelli, who was Jones' chief mechanic in the 1967 race, nodded agreement. "Look at the qualifying figures," said Unser, the 1968 Indy winner.

Revson took the pole last Saturday at 178.696 miles an hour beating the 177.087 of Donohue, who had done over 180 in practice. VclIlOrierO -LA leaves for Belmont BALTIMORE (AP) Cano-nero II, who has a chance on June 5 to become racing's first Triple Crown winner since 1948, was to leave Pimlico today for Belmont Park. The 3-year-old Kentucky-bred, owned by Venezuelans and raced mostly in that South American nation, has won the Kentucky Derby and Preak-ness. A victory in the Belmont would make Canonero II the ninth thoroughbred in history to win the Triple Crown, and the first since Citation 23 years ago. The colt was paraded Wednesday before the fans at Pimlico, where he won the Preakness in record time last week.

Gov. Marvin Mandel of Maryland, who saw the race, revisited the track Wednesday to make six Venezuelans honorary citizens of the state. Those honored included Pedro Baptista, owner of the colt; Edgar Caibett, Baptista's son-in-law and program owner; trainer Juan Arias; jockey Gustavo Avila; Victor Scialom, an accountant, and Dr. Jose Alme-nar, a friend and business associate of the owners. Now tie this! ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.

(AP) A traditional dunking of the coach cost Sandia High School a dual swimming victory with Albuquerque Valley High. Sandia, thinking it had defeated Valley, tossed Coach John Benny into the pool. Officials ruled, however, an exhibition race was still to be held. Instead of a Sandia victory, the final, score ended in a tie. ANAHEIM (AP) The California Angels should be fighting it out with the Oakland A's and Minnesota Twins.

Instead, they are fighting from within. There is a quiet undercurrent of discontent among the Angels these days, centering around the team's dissatisfaction with over complaints that Jones was "sandbagging" in practice and Sandbagging is deliberately turning one corner at relatively slow speed on each lap, varying the corner, in order to give deceptively low average speeds to observers. An easier, more obvious way is to hold down straightaway speeds. Pacelli beats Cards interims Stevens Point Pacelli handed Wausau Newman High School a 7-2 loss Wednesday in a tennis meet at Newman.

The teams conclude their four-game series tonight when rookie Pete Hamm, 1-0, throws for Minnesota against Clyde Wright, 3-3. "We've tried to help him but he won't talk to us," Fisher said of Johnson. "Everybody on this team wants to solve his problem, whatever it is, but there is a communications gap between us. "He could be the highest-paid player in the American League if he lived up to his capabilities but right now he's hurting us with his attitude and his performance on the field.

We don't feel he is giving us 100 per cent." Johnson was benched for two games over the weekend by Manager Lefty Phillips and was also fined.

By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS The Big Ten baseball race plunges into its final weekend Friday with three pursuers having a chance to overtake pacesetting Michigan State which threatens to end Minnesota's three-year title reign. The concluding round Friday-Saturday twin bills finds Minnesota (11-5), Michigan (8-4) and Illinois (9-5) with mathematical chance of slipping under the wire ahead of Michigan State (10-2). The championship team gains a berth in the NCAA's College World Series of Baseball starting in Omaha June 11. In event of a title tie, a new Big Ten rule awards the championship to the team scoring the most runs against the rival or rivals it ties for first place. Michigan State must close with four road games, including a Friday doubleheader at Purdue (5-9), and a Saturday brace at Illinois.

Minnesota has only a Saturday doubleheader left, playing at Iowa (9-7). Third-place Michigan also concludes with four road its enigmatic left-fielder, Alex Johnson.
