Fittipaldi Pilots Lotus To British Prix Victory BRANDS HATCH, England (AP) Emerson Fittipaldi of Brazil drove a JPS-Lotus to a narrow victory over Jackie Stewart of Scotland in the British Grand Prix Saturday and increased his lead in the World Drivers Championship. Fittipaldi covered the 76 laps in one hour, 47 minutes, 50.2 seconds-in average speed of 112.06 miles per hour and crossed the finish line about five seconds ahead of Stewart, who was in a Tyrrell. Peter Revson of New York was third in a Mclaren, followed by Chris Amon of New Zealand in a Matra and Denis Hulme of New Zealand in a McLaren. The victorj- was Fittipaldi's third of the season and gave him a total of 43 points, 16 more than Stewart.

His other triumphs were in the Spanish and Belgium Gr-and Prix. Jack Ickx of Belgium took the early lead and held it through the first 50 laps. Then he was forced into the pits with oil spewing from the gearbox, and was out of the race. Fittipaldi, who had been in second place from the outset, then charged into the lead and held it the rest of the way despite the determined effort of Stewart. The Scotsman said after the race his car was not braking properly and he could not catch Fittipaldi.

Sweden's Ronnie Peterson, running fourth in a March going into the final lap, ran out of fuel, skidded off the track and spun into a bank. He escaped unhurt. Of the 27 starters, only 18 still were running at the finish and just six had completed the 76 laps. There were no serious accidents. 1 l-ONDON (AP) Dave Bedford of England recorded the fastest time in the world this year, running it in 27 minutes, 52.8 seconds Saturday in the British Open Athletics meet before 30,000 fans at Crystal Palace Stadium.

Bedford's time was 13.4 seconds off the world record of 27:39.4, set by Ron Clarke of Australia in 1965. Friday, Bedford had run the 5,000 meters in 13 17.2, only six-tenths of a second slower than Clarke's world mark of 13:16.6, established in 1966. Britain's David Hemery, 1968 Olympic gold medalist and world record holder, won the 400-meter hurdles title in a thrilling tussle with Uganda's John Akii-Bua. Both were clocked in 49.7 seconds. The 100 meter went to Greek champion Vassilious Papa-georgopoulos in 10.1 seconds.

Ankle Injury Shelves llehner PITTSBURGH (AP) Third baseman Richie Hebncr may be out of action for more than a week because of an ankle injury, a spokesman for the Pittsburgh Pirates said Saturday. Hebncr suffered a pulled Achilles tendon in his left ankle during Friday night's game against Houston. Hebner was injured in the second inning when he lunged to field a grounder hit by Bob Watson. He fell and limped off the field after being examined by the Pirates trainer.

Fischer is refusing to play game No. 3 today unless the point the Russian gained by default is scratched from the score sheet.

1971 OLDS CUTLASS CONVERTIBLE no flu nor it CS By GERRY FINN Gannett News en ice The office acid lip spills his venom whenever anyone dares suggest that the American League belongs in the same park with the National league. He has plenty of ammunition in this campaign. He claims Dick Allen, a Phillies-Cardinals-Dodgers veteran, is the reason baseball is alive and well in the land of the Chicago White Sox. Allen leads the circuit in home runs and runs batted in. Allen's sensational act of transition has rubbed off on certain other National league grads.

One of these is John Mayberry of the Kansas City Royals. Mayberry had several chances to cut it with the Houston Astros. In fact, two springs ago he was considered a better than even bet to become NL rookie of the year. Instead, he was farmed out, came back the next time around, and fizzled before anyone could put another line on him. Life with the Royals has been, in contrast, very pleasant for this giant of a first baseman.

He is near the .300 level in hitting and is second, to Allen, in runs batted in. If you don't buy these examples of transfiguration, turn to the files on Amos Otis and Cookie Rojas two more Royals who were collecting bad notices when they toiled in the National League. Otis couldn't make it out of the reject department when he tried to catch on with the New York Mets, while Rojas groped in the darkness of being a fringe major leaguer while he collected checks from the Philadelphia Phils. Otis has changed from a sputtering nothing into a spark plug for the Kansas City club. He's rated one of the best outfielders ously resides this side or the other of .300.

Rojas presently is battling Minnesota's Rod Carew for the title of AL premier second baseman. Acid lip's best message is yet to come. "We (National League) have three pitchers going this year in the 'minors' who could end up being just as effective as that over-played Baltimore staff," he rips. First on the list of All-Star candidates is Gaylord Perry, now of the Cleveland Indians and late of the San Francisco Giants. Perry has to be tabbed tops among AL pitchers in the regular class.

He is 13-7 with a 1.97 ERA After Perry has been digested, look to the lofty credentials of Nolan Ryan, a New York Mets' produce who had a tough time finding the plate let alone the victory column in the National league. Ryan has latched onto a piece of respectability with a team that doesn't specialize in such a commodity the California Angels. He has a 10-5 mark, ERA of 2.48 and 122 strikeouts. He has found himself a home. Ken Holtzman, off a discouraging year with the Chicago Cubs, seems to have discovered the secret of rebirth with the Oakland Athletics.

The Ift is ll- and 2.58 and generally gets credit for taking up the slack created by the sudden collapse of Vida Blue. Thus, acid lip states his case. And, just to toss in a clincher, he does a crossover with Frank Robinson who changed from an Orioles' uniform to the garb of the Los Angeles Dodgers. Robby is just about making it," acid snorts. "He's .270 with 10 homers.

But what did he expect? After all, he's back in the major leagues now." That acid lip. He really know how to burn up a guy.
