Bay Meadows' stewards set him down for a period amounting to the balance of the meeting after reviewing his ride on Wind River last Tuesday. It was on that same day that Neves equaled a California record by riding six winners tn the nine race card. And yesterday morning, before being notified of his suspension, the Portuguese Pepper Pot experienced another thrill when he (Continued on Page 52, Col. 6) ously to the negotiations by Cleveland.

Dark said he "definitely will not" go to the third base coaching line himself but will use either Whitey Lockman or Wes Westrum there. "I'm not sure who it will be we'll come to that later," he said. "But I think I can do a better job on the bench." There will be no replacement for Parker. Dark said he would go with three coaches normal for a club other than By CURLEY GRIEVE Salty Parker, third base coach for the San Francisco Giants, proved a man of his word. After the season's final game here he said goodbye to his friends and added, "I won't be back." Yesterday he resigned to accept a coaching post with the Cleveland Indians of the American League.

Salty, whose baptismal name is Francis James, joined his long time friend and fellow resident of Shreveport, Mel Mc- Gaha. McGaha was named Tribe manager on Oct. 2. "I feci a personal obligation to join McGaha," Parker said. "I appreciate greatly the treatment I received from the Giants." Manager Alvin Dark, reached at Harrah's Club at South Tahoe where a golf tournament and benefit baseball dinner this weekend will attract a glittering array of major leaguers, did not know Salty had definitely resigned until informed by The Examiner.

He had consented previ the Chicago Cubs. Larry Jansen is the third coach. At the time rumors were current that Parker would not return, it was reliably reported that Dark had tried to hire Cookie Lava-getto. Cookie was a frequent visitor at Candlestick Park. Lavagctto declined because he already had agreed to work for the New York Mets.

The most deceptive figure in National Football League records today is the Pittsburgh Steelers' 1-5 win-loss record. The San Francisco 49ers, who close out their road journey Sunday against the Steelers at Pea kZ-J Xfimmi Forbes Field, have it diag nosed as a camouflage for a up tomorrow night in the Civic Auditorium. The Saints open their first season of ABL competition in a game with the Los Angeles Jets.

Some 32 other home court games will follow during a campaign which is to extend through next March. THERE ARE eight teams in the league. In addition to the Saints and the Jets, they are the Hawaiian Chiefs, the Kansas City Steers, the Chicago Majors, Pittsburgh Rens, Cleveland Pipers and Washington Tapers. One may have trouble believing those last three names but there is a reason for each of them. For example, the Tapers are so named because they are owned by a man who is in the adhesive tape business.

As for the Rens. the name is an abbreviation of Renaissance which hardly anybody, in or out of Pittsburgh, can spell. In the case of the Cleveland Pipers, their name, like that of the Tapers, is connotative of ownership. One of the club's major stockholders is a plumber who fcas laid a lot of pipe. We don't care much for the name, though.

In view of the wide range of facilities peculiar to the plumbing business we should think we could come up with something better than pipes. AS WE MAY not have made clear, this is a first attempt to establish major league professional basketball in San Francisco. However, it is not the first local experiment with pro basketball, as such. On a lesser scale, the game has been tried here before. Back in the 1920's, a short lived minor league operated with four clubs in the Bay area two of them in S.

25. (AP) A physician raised the question today whether hunters might shoot more game and fewer other hunters if eye examinations were required before licenses were issued. Dr. Julius M. Kowalski of Princeton, 111., writing in the Illinois Medical Journal, said every hunter is aware he must have keen eyes but there is no uniform answer to the question how much poor eyesight is permissible.

Most states require no eye examination before granting hunting licenses, he said. The few that do use the most rudimentary tests, Doctor Kowalski observed. He added: "It is reasonable to expect that a person in the field with a lethal weapon should meet the minimum standards of a motor vehicle as approved by the American Medical Association some years ago." These standards of visual acuity, he said, are 2040 in one eye and 20100 in the other, with or without glasses. Neither Doctor Kowalski nor the society has taken a position on required eye tests for hunters. Special to The Examiner PORTLAND, Oct.

25. The San Francisco skating Seals lost to Portland tonight, 3-1, in a Western Hockey League match that was televised back to the San Francisco Bay area. The crowd totaled 5,758. Veteran Gordon Fashoway scored the 498th and 499th goals of his career for Portland. Fashoway's first goal, from the right corner in the first period, put Portland, the southern division leader, ahead to stay.

His second, a 15-footer in the third period, left Portland out of reach of the visitors. San Francisco went ahead after two minutes when Bob Solinger swept in on Portland goalie Bruce Gamble and beat him with a short shot. Arnie Schmautz, midway in the period, tied it for Portland, climaxing a power play by slamming the puck past goalie Bev Bentley.

The five defeats are accounted for by a total of only 23 points. The Los Angeles Rams (24-14) is the only team to claim a win on more than a touchdown spread.

'ROUGH HOUSE' New York squeaked past Buddy Parker's crew by three points (17-14) as did Dallas (27-24). The world champion Philadelphia Eagles made it by 5 (21-16) and last week Cleveland had to score 10 last-minute points to outlast the Steelers by 2 (30-23). What's more.
