All-Stars Impress Against Admira Small Crowd Sees B.C. Score Easy Soccer Win By ROY JUKICH B.C. All-Stars 4, Admira Wien 2 Austria's touring Admira Wien soccer club today is looking to the east for its first victory on Canadian soil. JOCK EQUALS WORLD RECORD BULAWAYO, Southern Rhodesia (Reuters) Jockey Pieter Strobel Saturday equalled the world's record of riding 12 consecutive winners. Strobel started his streak at the Bulawayo Turf Club June 27 when he won the last race of the day.

On the next racing day, June 28, he won all six races on the card and Saturday he scored in the first five races. The sequence followed the same pattern as the record set by Britain's Sir Gordon Richards in 1933. The Austrians failed in their initial attempt Saturday night at Empire Stadium. They ran head-long into the stubborn B.C. All-Stars and came out 4-2 losers before 6.980 fans.

It was the opening match of a seven game tour of Canada. Next game is Wednesday night in Edmonton. The Austrians were keenly disappointed with the result and their performance. But they needn't be. They met, in the All-Stars, one of the finest sides to ever represent the province.

And it's doubtful if the Austrians will meet stronger opposition on the remainder of their tour. Greig Delights Fans Mounties Win Pair, Still Third SUNDAY Vancouver 7, Phoenix 6, 11 SATURDAY Vancouver 8, Phoenix 3 PHOENIX With some corners knocked off but their pride still in place, the Vancouver Mounties hobbled away from this baseball jungle today. Although they were the victims of an awesome barrage of home runs, the Mounties finished their seven game series with the feared Phoenix Giants, winning three and losing four. "They (B.C. All-Stars) compare with most clubs in Austria, Hungary and Czechoslovakia," he- said following, the match.

"In fact, they rate on par with a good many of England's better sides." The Austrian players showed some nice touches and it's unfortunate they didrft start the tour in the east. 1 There the competition isn't as stiff and they would have been warmed up for the B.C. AH-Stars. Otto Alex, who played goal for Austria in the recent World Cup competition, played well and could hardly be faulted on the goals. He made 24 stops, many bordering on the sensational side.

Austria's other World Cup players Erich Habitzl and Ceyka failed to get Goalie Ken Pears came up with another of his sensational performances. He was a mite lucky in the final five minutes when shots from Hubert Vogelsinger and Fritz Ceyka hit the cross bar. Dave Stothard, Jackie Steele, Normie McLeod and John Woods also performed in spectacular style. But the local player who caught the fancy of all hands was left half and team captain Doug Greig. Greig, recognized as one of Canada's finest players, never showed to better advantage.

He delighted the fans with a daring exhibition of dribbling and passing and was a stout defender. In fact, Admira Wien club president Anthony Rosiski went out of his way to compliment Greig. He also had warm words of praise for the entire club.

Ceyka was all for taking Kulai apart and was forcihly restrained by his teammates. But what Ceyka and his teammates didn't realize was Kulai would have had the kick taken a third time had MacKay missed. Otto, in Kulai's opinion, had -moved too soon again. Karl Soldatics got one back for the Austrians six minutes later, banking in a shot off Graziano P'ranzon.

Normie McLeod restored the two-goal margin nine minutes later after combining with McEachnie and Woods. Mc-Eachnie made it 4-l at 35 minutes. The Austrians came to life and finally found the target again when Johann Gerdenic did justice to a double relay from Anton Polster and Ceyka shortly before full time. By. ABV OLSON It's not that they were hungry for revenge, but the Admira Wien soccer club was craving for another game against B.C.

following the local a 1 1 a s' 4-2 triumph Saturday night at Empire Stadium. The Austrians wanted a second shot at B.C. tonight before they head for Edmonton Tuesday and the next game of their seven game Canadian tour. But, due to the circumstances, the tourists will have to be content and leave Vancouver with just one loss. They may be occupied tonight at Callister Park watching Carlings and Na-naimo battle in the second round of the Shrine Cup competition.

Admira Wien manager Anthony Rosicki, speaking for the entire team, said: "We want to play another game Monday. We would play a better game, perhaps, with another referee." Rosicki termed Saturday night's officiating by Dan SUN FOOTBALL CLINIC GOES AGAIN TONIGHT The Vancouver Sun's second three-day football clinic will open at 6:45 tonight at Empire Stadium practice field. Sun Football Editor Annis Stukus and his assistants will continue to drill youngsters at the same site Tuesday and Wednesday nights. It was fairly obvious from the start that bodily contact was out. The Austrian club was content to keep their noses to the grindstone and the locals followed suit.

Josef Nemansky of the visitors pulled a "wrong way Cor-rigan act" at 34 minutes of the first half. He knocked Neil McEachnie's rebound into his own net. B.C. went two up at 10 minutes of the second half when Alex MacKay converted a penalty against Leopold Eisner for hands. MacKay had two tries before making good and it caused the game's only serious ruckus.

Referee Dan Kulai ordered the kick retaken when he caught: goalie Otto moving his legs before the kick. The Austrian players claimed Otto moved his body and not his feet but Kulai ruled otherwise. Jericho Earns Tennis Draw Jericho tied Vancouver 2-2 Sunday in Ladies' League tennis action at Jericho courts. Clair Lovett and Natalie Hutch gave Vancouver their two points with single victories over Marg McLean and Lee Dobson respectively. Miss Lovette won 4-6, 6-3 and 7-5 and Natalie won 0-6, 6-4 and 6-4.

Tnrlav. as manaeer Mike as manager Mounties won two out of three over the weekend to remain in third place in the Pacific Coast League, just half a game behind the first-place Giants and two percentage points back of San Diego. Mounties split Sunday, winning the first game 7-6 and losing the second 11-7. TIE PCL RECORD Saturday night, Ray Barker's suddenly hot bat powered Vancouver to an 8-3 win.

The Giants, who hit 15 homers in the first three games of the series, continued their outrageous blasting and tied an all-time PCL record in the process. Phoenix batters smashed 24 home runs in the seven-game series, to tie the all-time coast mark. Vancouver hit 10 homers of their own and a couple of them played a large part in the two weekend victories. MOUNTIES' TURN Saturday night Barker hit two homers, added a single, chased in three runs and was robbed of a third home run by a spectacular catch. Joe Durham added a third homer as the Mounties, for a change, showed the muscles.

In Sunday's opener, Durham hit a grand-slam homer in the first inning and singled in the winning run in the last inning. Owen Friend, who was six for eight in the double-header, hit a homer in the second and doubled in the seventh, scoring the winning run on Durham's single. Phoenix rattled -five Vancouver pitchers for 14 hits in the second game, with Andre Rogers, Ray Jenkins and Dusty Rhodes hitting for the circuit. Friend hit his second of the day for Vancouver. The Mounties had today off to travel and recuperate.

But their tense pennant struggle continues Tuesday as they open a seven-game set with San Diego. (Box scores, page 17) i LACR3SSE! TOMORROW 8:30 2 The FORUM Vancouver 2 PRIDE IS PAYMENT There's No Pay All-Star Day BALTIMORE (AP) The immediate material reward for players in the all-star baseball game Tuesday is only a high-priced souvenir. Higgins takes inventory dur bPORT EVEN 1 5 PILSENERS Kulal, rated Canada's best referee, as "unfair." The amiable Austrian went on to add the referee-ing was the game's biggest fault and that his team's play was affected psychologically because of it. Kulai has been classed by experts such as Stanley Sey. nionr (Newcastle), Arthur Howe (Tottenham), Andie Beattie (Htiddersfield) and Tommy Walker (Hearts) as the best referee they have encountered outside of Britain.

Seymour once said that Kulai is capable of working any English first division match. 'it Rosicki and many of the Admira Wien team members praised the locals as "an aggressive club." Rosicki singled out B.C. goalie Ken Pears: "He could play on any team in Europe." The Austrians also thought Dave Stothard, Doug Grelg and Normie McLeod were outstanding. Reason the Austrians slipped and stumbled around so much was that they use short cleats they agreed the field was excellent, but that the grass was a little too tall and soft. When Alex MacKay failed to score on his first penalty shot attempt, it marked only the second time in three years that he'd missed but, like his other miss last year against St.

Andrews, he had a second chance and made good ironically enough, Kulai was the ref each time. B.C. Soccer Commission presented each Austrian player with a centennial dollar, mounted on a key-chain the crowd (6,980) was smallest to watch a touring team in three years Austrians considered the fans "objective, like the English" Admira Wien knew what to expect of B.C. before game time. Frank Ernst, former manager of Winnipeg Germainla, warned them in advance.

NANAIMO TIMBERMEN ing the season's half-way turn, he may shudder to think where his second-place Sox would be without Delock. Ike not only has blossomed into a starting pitcher but has become the team's biggest winner and the ace of the staff.

But there's new talent in the line that could well be as fierce as Ed ever was. Take Tommy Hinton, a 230-pound block of a man from Louisiana Tech. He smashed the blocking dummies as though he hated them and he's cat-quick on his feet. The only place Lions are really suffering is at the ends. And you couldn't really call that suffering.

Rick Kaser, the slick little pass catcher from last year, is back and looks very good. Billy Clyde Smith, a rock-hard Louisiana State end, seems to fit in nicely. Howie Schnellenberger, the Ail-American end from Kentucky, was due in today. There are a couple of other minor Injuries around camp. Curtis laukea III (honest), a 245-pound tackle from Hawaii via University of California, has a bad knee and so has Texas Tech quarterback Jerry Johnson.

But with the cloudy, cool weather and the light workouts they wear pads in the mornings and' shorts and T-shirts in the afternoon they haven't had time to develop many hurts. ing trouble getting away to attend camp. Lions told him not to bother making the long trip. They already have John (The Beast) Bayuk of Colorado, Duke Washington of Washington State and unheralded Bob Ward of Whitworth College looking impressive, with old reliable By Bailey as good as ever and big Don Vicic on his way to camp. They're almost as indifferent about Luna although they feel he should have a chance.

Ik-Most impressive of these newcomers is Don Bingham, a 175-pound lightning bolt from the improbable place of Still Ross State Teachers College in I he Lone Slar Conference. The only reason he's here Is contract trouble with Chicago Cardinals and Ihe coaches say he wants to make the team so badly you can feel it any time you get near him. It's the same thing up front. Everywhere you look there are great slabs of muscle, eagerly Intent on damaging someone.

Ed Sharkey, the most ferocious Lion last year, By JACK RICHARDS (Sun Sports Editor) KELOWNA B.C. Lions head coach Clem Crowe today is looking the world in the eye with new confidence. He's a different Clem than the one who was almost ill last year when Ed Voytek went home. "Anybody who doesn't like it here," he said Sunday, "we'll be glad to pay his fare home." Sure, he's had disappointments. Alabama halfback Bobby Luna may not be here, Earl Bechtel, former San Francisco halfback who had a brief shot wilh Lions last season, certainly won't.

End John Prendcrgast, for whom Lions traded Calgary Rae Ross, will not report. Neither will Canadian centre Roy Jenson. Tackle Ken Arkell hurt his knee and just up and went home and tackle Don "Sunshine" Phillips of Rice Institute ruined a knee and has been sent to Vancouver for doctor's care.
