Dodgers, Giants Strike Gold In California Windward Hay Set New Record ABOARD CUTTER PERSEUS sloop Windward sailed toward the finish line of the 1,430 mile San Diego-to-Acapulco Yacht Race late Monday night, virtually assured of setting a new record for the event. As the 82-foot craft neared the end of the long race, it was nearly three days ahead of the old race record of 10 days and 7 hours Winds were'letting up a bit, but the end was so near a record seemed almost certain. The sloop, owned by E.R. and Don Chilcott of Los Angeles, was only 77 miles from Acapulco as of the last report of the Copl'ey! News Service. Predictions were that the vessel would finish the race around midnight p.s.t.

However, as of early today, the confirming report that the Windward had the race was still missing. The sloop had led since the start of the event Jan 19. As of the last report, the Novia del Mar, an 89-foot ketch cap tairied by John P. Scripps. of San Diego, had fallen about 112 miles behind the Windward because of light winds.

Funston, end, College of the Pacific. By UNITED PRESS The Los Angeles Dodgers and San Francisco Giants are starting to, mine the gold they struck in California, a United Press survey of pre-season baseball ticket sales disclosed today. Fifteen of the 16 major-league clubs reported their advance sales for the' 1958 season are running even or well ahead of last year, with the Chicago Cubs the lone exception. But the transplanted Dodgers and Giants were bidding' to "out-Milwaukee" those fantastic Braves' crowds. "At this date our sales are about" twice what, they were in Brooklyn on opening day," exulted Dodger ticket manager Harold.

Parrott. The Giants will be playing in 25,000 seat Seals Stadium instead of the 55,000 seat Polo Grounds, but even so a Giant spokesman reported sales are approaching $2,000,000 "at least twice" what they were in' New York a year ago. 'The park is smaller," he admitted, "but we'll just sell, out; here oftener, that's all." The Dodgers have taken in $1,800,000. Parrott said there was one big burst when it was an nounced the team would in Wrigley Field; since the shift to 101,000 seat Coliseum was' announced, "we have re-opened the box seat sales and it's been more terrific than ever." The Dodgers and Giants are among four clubs announcing rise in ticket prices, though comparison is difficult in their cases because of the change in sites. The Dodgers will have $2.50 seats instead of $2.00 and $3.50 seats in stead of $3.00.

The Giants will have seats at the same prices, "a few cents than in New York. Also raising prices are the" Chicago Cubs (about 15 cents per ticket) and the world champion Braves (10 to 15 cents on daily tickets, $10 to $20'on season tickets). The other 12 teams are holding the line on last year's prices The Cubs were the shocker with an admission by ticket manager Jack Maloney that "things don't! look so right now we're down 36 per cent as of niid-Janu-j ary." Hollypark To Distribute $1,230,000 INGLEWOOD Park, which last year set a record in total net stakes and purse money distributed, announced today it would distribute a record $1,230,000 in awards at its summer meeting opening May 8. Movie producer Mervyn LeRoy, president of the track, said Hollywood Park expected that its world's record of $3,695,000 distributed as both stakes and purses last year would also be broken in the 55-day meeting this' summer. Heading the Hollywood Park stakes program will be the Hollywood Gold Cup July 12.

It carries a guaranteed net of $100,000 to the winner and. rich prizes for second-' ary awards requiring the track to post approximately $135,000. Three other $100,000 added races are also Californian, the Westerner for 3-year- olds and the Sunset Handicap on closing July 22. Whatever Happened Nicholson Signs With Orioles ST. LOUIS Nicholson, 18, baseball prospect who had most major league teams throwing him fat contract offers today looked forward to service with the Baltimore Orioles.

He signed a contract Sunday night that called for a bonus estimated at $80,000 hot the highest offer, according to insiders. Nicholson reportedly turned down $100,000 offered by the Cubs to join the Orioles, a club that he "thought-offered him the best opportunity. Only the Detroit Tigers failed to bid. James Kielty, president of the Orioles said in New York that Nicholson had received a "modest bonus." Neither the Nicholson family, nor the Orioles, represented by Del Wilbur, a scout, would disclose the exact amount of the bonus! Wilbur said Nicholson, a right- handed outfielder, might be able to keep up with the pace at Balti more after spring training at Scottsdale, Ariz. But he added that it was more likely that the 6-3 210-pounder would be sent to the minors where he could play every day.

Eugene (Bubbles) Hargrave Eugene (Bubbles) Hargrave, a hard-hitting catcher, won the 1926 National League batting crown with a .353 average for the Cincinnati, Redlegs.

That seemed to be the message the National League has given to Mayor Robert Wagner and his special four. man committee trying to find a replacement for the Dodgers and Giants. The National-League, after meeting here Saturday, invited the mayor to appear at another meeting in July at Baltimore The mayor was asked to report at that time what progress he has made toward erection of new park. Wagner now is vacationing Puerto Rico. William Shea, chairman of his baseball committee, said he was "delighted" with the National League action.

First Loss Of Season For West Virginia By UNITED PRESS West Virginia's first defeat of the season was attributed today to a "home court jinx" and "the Carolina air" among other things, but the plain, unvarnished truth is that Duke's Devils simply out-foxed and out-ran the mighty Mountaineers.

By upsetting top-ranked West Virginia, 72-68, at Durham, N.C., Monday night, the Blue Devils snapped the Mountaineers' 14- game winning streak and main itairied their record of never hav lost to the West Virginians in, IDuke's indoor stadium. Harris Puts It on Ice Forward Bob Smith, individual I high scorer with 24 points, almost pulled the game out for West Virginia by registering 16 of his points in the second half. Guard Joe Harris finally put Duke ahead to stay, 60-59, however, iwith six minutes left and-the Blue jDevils ran their lead to seven points with a minute and a half left. West Virginia, which earlier season had snapped North a 1 i n.a's 37-game winning streak, thus fell from the ranks of the unbeaten. The only perfect team left in the major college ranks is St.

John's, winner of all nine of its games. Duke's victory over the Moun was only one many upsets which marked Monday night's activity.

From far and wide the professional golfers following the sun headed for the winter resort town of Phoenix, showdown on something rese Ming a championship of the West Coast. The title-winners of every tournament staged so far in 1958 will be on hand to contest the $15,000 event, including the rookie sensation, J. C. Goosie, who is just about ready to graduate into the winning ranks in the big leagues.

These champions will be at Phoenix: Billy Casper: Bing Crosby Open title winner. E. J. (Dutch) Harrison: Tijuana Open champ. Ken Venturi: Thunderbird Invitational titlist.

Frank Stranahan: Winner of the Los Angeles Open. Art Wall: Panama Open champion. And the incomparable J. C. Goosie: Winner of the $5,000 Eldorado Invitational here Monday and also winner of the $5,000 El Centro-Mexicali Open last week.

While most of the champions are well-established names, Goosie will be in the spotlight. He is considered by the professionals as one of the brightest first-year prospects to join the tour in a long as Venturi was last year. Goosie was the only man able to completely master the new Eldorado course here Monday. He trimmed six strokes off par with 66 on a brand-new 6800-yard course to set a new record for the layout. The victory 'was worth $525 to the struggling young newcomer and he picked up another $100 ih the pro-amateur "division, where his team finished in a tie for fourth place.

Venturi, despite a disastrous start on the first hole, finished in second place with a 68, good for $435; and Walter Burkemo, Franklin, and Billy Odessa, came next, tied at 69, good for $360. The pro-am title, worth $400. was won by Marty Furgol, Lemont, 111., with amateur partners Don.Cuncan, Chicago, and Harry Dodson, Los Angeles. An operation to relieve pressure on his spinal cord and determine the extent of injury was begun at 5:15 a.m. p.s.t.

Doctors at Glen Cove Community Hospital said it would not be completed lor several hours. They said the roly-poly baseball star was in critical condition. The possibility of his recovering to return to baseball cannot be known until the operation is- the hospital said. A doctor, who declined to be identified, said, however, that "his playing days may be over." Mrs. Campanella, mother of six children under 18, told newsmen she saw her husband shortly after he was admitted to the hospital at 4:12 a.m.

and "He just moaned. He's paralyzed from the down." Officials On Hand' Hospital administrator Harry Gifford said X-rays before surgery showed "broken vertebrae, but we don't know whether it is one or more." Worried Dodger officials gathered at the hospital and Dodger President Walter O'Malley kept in touch by telephone from New York. The chunky Negro catcher, the National League's most valuable player in 1951, 1953 and 1955, had been due to report to the Dodgers' Vero Beach, training camp about Feb. 20. It was not immediately known where Campanella had been before the accident.

He was nearing his $50,000 home in a real estate development on the former estate of the late financier J. P. Morgan when his car skidded on a sharp curve near the crest of a hill and 'crashed into the telephone pole. Campanella, one of baseball'i great catchers, was alone in the car, a 1957 sedan rented from Scarsdale, N.Y., agency.

The 68-year-old Ferris beamed when he talked about the two- year agreement signed at Washington Monday providing for an exchange of U.S.

and Soviet athletes, scientists and students. It could start within weeks. But there was caution in Ferris' words. "Naturally, I'm pleased," he said. "This is a milestone if it can be realized.

It would be fine for sports and international good will. But it will cost us something like $155,000 to pay the expense for competition in track, basketball, wrestling and. weight-lifting. "Right now, it would be almost impossible to handle it because the Amateur Athletic Union doesn't have the money and our people around the country don't seem to be interested. While I'm not putting out an appeal for funds, 1 must say that the response we've had so far doesn't speak too well for sports interests in various cities." If everything works out, Ferns will have realized a dream.

He retired last year after 30 years as national secretary treasurer of the AAU but has remained active as honorary secretary-and chairman of the foreign affairs committee. He has devoted almost all of his time in recent weeks to attempts to get final agreement on the home-and-home competition with Russia.
