Law Fail Frien d9 'Brat' Role Sf Poor Casting Ch irate ances JL For Stars time athlete's I have little patience with big who act like spoiled brats. Stardom should accept i Vis" i i i. 1V1 e'. United fim International First it's Friend and then it's Law and who in Pitt could ask for more? Warren Spahn and Johnny Sain will have to pardon the parody on that famous refrain of 1948 because it looks like Bob Friend and Vern Law can keep the Pittsburgh Pirates in the National League race all the way. The Pirates seemed on the verge of collapse only two weeks ago but today they've tied San Francisco for first place on the strength of seven victories in eight games.

Friend and Law have accounted for four of those seven victories and have two of the gaudiest records in the league. Friend is 5-1 with a 2.22 earned run average and Law is 6-1 with a 2.06 E.R.A. Friend, of course, is making a comeback from a. dismal 8-19 mark last season but. Law is only picking up where he left off in 1959.

He finished the campaign with 12 victories imposes obligations. A performer them with grace and understanding or get out. There has been a wave of distasteful incidents recently involving sports headliners: Heavyweight champion In-gemar Johansson gave his "Oh! how you bore me" act when he appeared three hours late for the $25 a plate Florida Sports Celebrity Dinner at the Diplomat. Sammy Snead won the Greensboro Open and then blasted the course as being unworthy of a man of his skill. Dodger Don Drysdale turned from pitching to architectural engineering to redesign the 100,000 seat Los Angeles Coliseum to suit his talents.

Bill Hartack, the perpetually petulant jockey, was flip and arrogant after a Kentucky Derby triumph. Sugar Ray Robinson, always a law unto himself, left fans 'and the promoter holding the bag by failing to appear for a bout at Baltimore. JOHANSSON SNEAD scored the decisive run for the Braves by bowling over catcher Hobie Landrith on a play at the plate. The Giants filled the bases with two out in the ninth but Don McMahon retired Willie McCovey on a fly for the final out Mike McCormick, San Francisco's five-game winner, suffered his first defeat Ed Bailey broke up the four-hour and four-minute marathon in Cincinnati by singling home Frank Robinson in the 12th. Robinson had tied the score at 4-4 with a two-run homer in the last of the 10th after the Dodgers had forged ahead, 4-2, in their half.

Vada Pinson had three hits for the Reds and Junior Gilliam had four for Los Angeles. Relief ace Gerry Staley allowed one hit and one run over the last four innings to win hir fourth game for the White Soxi whose decisive four-run fifth in-; ning rally was featured by Minnie Minoso's two-run double. Staley himself drove in the winning run with a sacrifice Ry. BARBER WINS THIRD ''l The Orioles made it six victories in seven games when Jackie Brandt homered off Kansas City relief ace Leo Kie-ly in the ninth. The blow, producing the first run off Kiely" this season, gave 20-year old Steve Barber, who yielded one run in four innings, his third victory.

Gil McDougald's three -run homer in the second inning proved enough for Ralph Terry to win his second game with an eight-hitter for the Yankees The Indians threatened in ths ninth but Terry retired Johnny Powers on a fly with the tying runs aboard.

The Miami News VERN LAW Six Victories in his last 18 decisions for a final 18-9 record. BRAVES BEAT GIANTS Law, 29, was at his best last night when he pitched the Pirates to a 4-2 victory over the St. Louis Cardinals that enabled them to tie the Giants, who suffered a 3-1 loss to the Milwaukee Braves. The Cincinnati Reds beat the Los Angeles Dodgers, 5-4, in 12 innings in other NL action.

The Chicago White Sox held their one half game grip on the American League lead with a 6-5 victory over the Boston Red Sox, the Baltimore Orioles shaded the Kansas City Athletics, 5-4; the New York Yankees downed the Cleveland Indians, 4-2, and the Washington Senators beat the Detroit Tigers, 3-0. Law, who helped his cause with a double in the seventh inning, shut out the Cardinals until the ninth when three gles and an infield out produced both St. Louis runs. Don Hoak and Bob Skinner bad two hits each for the Pirates, who dealt ex-teammate Ron Kline his third defeat. McCORMICK LOSES Relief pitcher Bob Rush pitched six fine innings and also Ah, Success! Marlins Try DRYSDALE 3 Win Football, HARTACK By TOMMY FITZGERALD University of Miami presented the Miami, baseball club an autographed football last night at the Stadium and the Marlins responded with two touchdowns but missed both extra points.

As Owner Bill MacDonald of Carl Furillo, the veteran Dodger outfielder, blasts Buz-zie Bavasi for giving him his unconditional release. Not since the unhappy days of the Cleveland Indians' "Cry Baby" revolt against Oscar. Vitt has there been a plague of the malcontents to match the current one. The attitude of Furillo is in sharp contrast with that of another veteran major league outfielder who drew his release Jim Busby, now with the Marlins. I asked Jim if, after nine years in the American League, it was hard to swallow his pride and come back to the minors.

"It wasn't a problem for me." he said. "I always operated on a philosophy of 'Be nice to people on your way op, because you may meet them on your way down. My pride isn't hurt, because I have played with or against most of the fellows in the league before. I think we all have the same idea try to make it back to jj ID Thursday, May 19, 1960 4 1 z.

Coach Bobby Hogue was shouting in jesting glee: "We're going to pitch him again tomorrow night.

Kussrow will represent the Orange Bowl Committee during the Big Eight Conference meeting which opens today aC. Ames, Iowa. The Orange Bowl's contract with the Big Eight ends witl the game on Jan. 2, 1961.

"We do not plan any discussion of the contract either as to its possible renewal or termination during the meet- -ing, Seiler said. "That is something to be settled later. We do hope, however, we will learn something as to the status of Oklahoma." Oklahoma, the perennial Big Eight champion, currently is under indefinite suspension by the National Collegiate Athletic Association. The ban stems from use of an illegal recruiting fund and the failure to provide full information on it. If the suspension of Oklahoma is not lifted, then the Sooners will not be eligible to play in the Orange Bowl next January.

The Orange Bowl Committee has an "escape clause" in the contract which then would permit it to go outside the Big Eight for a team. the Marlins viewed the 12 points on the scoreboard, Miami's largest production of the season, he observed: "Maybe we should hold U-M Night again tomorrow night and have them present us an autographed basketball. It would be even nicer winning 101-5." CLIMB TO CTH The 13 hits in this 12-5 victory over Richmond were only two shy of Miami's mcst base knocks for the season and manager Al Vincent had an evening that should have been overwhelmingly joyful except for the return of Pitcher Johnny Anderson's back misery. It was Miami's fourth straight victory, its third in a row over Richmond and a triumph that put them in sixth place, half a game ahead of the Vees. There also was much to excite him in the long-awaited hitting of Angelo Dagres, who boosted his .226 average with a single, a double and a triple and drove in three runs exactly as many as he had driven home in 31 previous times at bat.

BURKE HIT HOMER Vincent also could look at the box score and drool over Leo Burke's helping his puny .212 average with three hits, including a three-run homer, his third circuit clout, in the sixth. There was Ron Samford with tliree hits, too, and most of the other boys getting a whack or two hitting that was painfully missing the first few weeks of the campaign but Mr. Vincent, the perfectionist, was like a good shepherd unable to celebrate so long as just one lamb was astray from the batting fold.

But Furillo refused assignment to Spokane of the Pacific Coast League and the promise of a place in the Dodger organization when his playing days were over. Instead, he bleats about mistreatment, and threatens court action. It's The Money That Counts Some players, after being in the majors, feel the minors 'beneath their The Marlins had a player with that attitude in 1956 their first year in the International League. Sid Gordon came down from the National League after service with the Giants, Braves and Pirates. He drew top dollar as a player-i coach, but was a source of constant trouble to Manager Don Osborne.

The truly great athlete accepts conditions as he finds them and makes the best of the situation. I recall when the pro golfers to strike against George May and his "World Championship" tournament at Chicago because he insisted they wear identifying program numbers on their backs. Byron Nelson, then the game's finest shotmak-er, refused to join in the revolt "I'll wear a number and play on the marble stairway at the Stevens' Hotel as long as George puts up the $50,000 prize money," Nelson said.
