Dressen Will Take Close Look at Younger Players By BERME KENNEDY Associated Press Sports Writer DETROIT lAP) Tiger Manager Charlie Dressen hasn't conceded the pennant to anyone, but he plans to take a close look at a few of the younger players in the last month of the season. Dressen liked what he saw Friday night when the Tigers clobbered the Washington Senators 10-2 to move into third place.

Mickey Stanley, the youngster from Grand Rapids, made two fine defensive plays and contributed his first major league homer as Hank Aguirre posted his 13th triumph. Norm Cash, Willie Horton and Bill Freehan also hit homers as the Tigers snapped out of a hitting slump with a 13-hit barrage off three Washington pitchers. "The home run doesn't im- jress me," Dressen said. "Any- can hit them these days. "But not everyone can make diving catches like he did on Ken) Hamlin," Dressed added.

Stanley raced in to snap Hamin's sinking liner off his shoe ops, then raced to the fence in eft-center to snag Woodie leld's long drive in the fifth nning. 'The way he's playing and with Jim Northrup getting a ew more hits, I'd say we are in )rettv good position to trade a "ew fellows and help ourselves," Dressen said. "Of course, I don't know who other teams want or who thev are willing to give up," he added. Horsemen Set Competition The Saddle-Lite Club horse show is set for Sunday at the Gogebic County Fairgrounds in Ironwood. Events are scheduled to begin at 10 am.

regardless of weather. The show is under the jurisdiction of the Upper Peninsula Horse Association. Competition will be of four types: Halter competition in Eive different classes; western pleasure competition in four divisions; speed events in four divisions; and special costu competition in two divisions. One trophy and five ribbons will be awarded in each event, including the halter classes. Entries are expected from a number of U.

P. communities. Gene Autry Denies Claim LOS ANGELES (AP) Los Angeles Angel owner Gene Autry denied Friday a published report that Manager Bill Rigney had been rehired for the 1966 season. Autry, at Chavez Ravine for the Los Angeles-Kansas City game, said: "In San Francisco today I talked about the policy of Gene Autry Enterprises retaining its executive staff. I think Rigney has done a good job.

I said it wouldn't be long until we made a decision about next year, but I didn't say he would be retained." Northrup had a run-scoring double and a pair of singles but will probably be on the bench for the next few days as Al Kaline returns to the lineup. "Stanley told me before the game that he plays center a little shallower than most guys," Aguirre said. "When I asked if he could go back to get the balls hit over his head, he told me not to worry." Aguirre had not won in more than two weeks and is now three games away from matching the best winning season of his career. "I sure would like to win 17 but I really don't know if I can do it," he said. "I've always had trouble with Washington, so winning tonight has to make me feel good." Cash, who had only one hit in 26 previous appearances against Washington pitching, snapped a scoreless deadlock with a two- run homer in the third.

Freehan's homer triggered another two-run inning in the fourth and Horton's two-run shot came in the sixth. Don Wert singled home two runs and Horton's single scored another in the sixth before Stanley added his home run in the seventh to close out the scoring for the Tigers. Horton regained the league lead in home runs with 27 and his 91 runs batted in is just one behind Cleveland's Rockey Colavito. Aguirre lost his shutout in the eighth inning when he gave up solo homers to Ken McMullen and Woodie Held. The Senators put two runners on in each of the first three innings for their best scoring opportunities.

Aguirre struck out the last batter in each of the first four innings and finished with eight strikeouts.

A lack of experience on the part of the Midgets opened the door for a number of scor i opportunities which the more experienced Park Falls unit took immediate advantage of. Park Falls lost little time in testing the defensive strength of the visitors as early in the first stanza the winners lighted up the Scoreboard after a five- yard end run by halfback John Pratt climaxed a touchdown drive that was spirited by a long Cardinal gain that covered over 50 yards.

The try for the extra po i failed because of an offside infraction and the score stood at 6-0. Minutes later Pratt plunged over tackle and scampered 20- yards to add to Park Pall's margin and the kick for extra point was good and the Cardinals led in the ballgame 13-0. The second quarter saw Park Falls open up its passing game and halfway through the period it paid off with a throw from Palacheck to Gustafson good for a 35-yard scoring play and the Cardinals increased their lead to 19-0. The try for extra point failed. Hurley kicked off to start the second half of action, only to fail to stop a Park Falls drive that ended with Don Lemke skirting the end to add to th winner's margin.

The try for the extra point was good and Park Falls sat back with a comfortable lead of 26-0. Hurley, for the first and last time in the third quarter, got the ball as Park Falls kicked off and the highlight of the entire game came when Roger Stella of Hurley grabbed the kickpff on the four-yard line and with the help of some fine Hurley blocking, ran right through the Cardinal defense for 96 yards to score Hurley's only TD. An outstanding block on the runback which enabled Stella to break into the clear, was thrown Sonny Calvetti. Hurley's try for the extrapoint was no good and the tally stood at 26-6. Park Falls rounded out i scoring in every quarter as midway in the final stanza Pala- check scampered for 10 yards to climax the final Cardinal scoring drive and put the finishing touches on the season opener.

Defensive standouts for the Midgets were Paul Powell and Wayne Nasi at the end spots and William DeMeio, who did a fine job at the linebac position. Park Falls' defensive ace was Gustafson at the cornerb a spot. Park Falls fumbled the football twice and Hurley recovered once while Hurley fumbled the ball once and recovered its own bobble. The Midgets had a total of three passes intercepted during the course of the contest. Hurley's next outing will be Sept.
