Jiminez, with two strikes on Howard, tired to throw one by the big slugger, and the ball, fortunately, missed Hamilton at Short. It may have dragged him to death had he grabbed it. And the tying and winning runs raced home. Although the hitting of Bobby DelGreco and the relief pitching of Don Cardwell were encouraging to Phil fans, the early bombing of Curt Simmons was a disappointment.

Then Stevens and Baumer hit almost identically-placed homers in left-center to give the Bees their first lead, 4 3, in the sixth.

They traded a pair of runs In the seventh. Smith was safe on Hamiltons error and Tony Roig singled. Both tallied on Robinsons double. AN ERROR also contributed to the Bee scoring in that Inning. Harry Bright singled and Miley Was safe as Smith erred.

By AKOClattd Press The National League took a day oft Good Friday after three days of action that produced 341,809 paid admissions, a new manager in Philadelphia and six men hitting .500 or better. If there was one develop- jnent that stood out above all others in the first few days it was recognition that Chuck Dressen had taken a firm hold in Milwaukee. THE APPEARANCE of Lew Burdette in the bullpen and the quick hook for Warren Spahn on Opening day was a solid hint. As soon as Chuck hit Philadelphia for a weekend series, he announced that Spahn, too, would be in the bullpen if needed against the Phils.

Juan Pizarro was out there Thursday. Noting Red Schoen-dienst had enough to do to supervise his own comeback after losing a year because of tuberculosis, Dressen appointed Eddie Mathews the nake charge guy" of the infield. When Philadelphia started a left-handed pitcher, Dres-sen revealed he planned to platoon center and left. He brought in Mel Roach to replace A1 Spangler in left and sent Felix Mantilla to center instead of Bill Bruton. Of course, the left field situation may be changed when Wes Covington is ready for full time duty.

PHILADELPHIA had its largest opening crowd in two years, 32,038, to see acting manager Andy Cohen make the right moves and beat Dressen. Frantic shifting of pitchers and pinch hitters finally brought up Joe Koppe. His single off Johnny Logans glove won the game in the 10th inning. Spring Ice Meet Closes Today The Spring Ice Review winds up a three-day show Saturday at Hygeia Iceland where young figure skaters from through out the state have been presenting exhibition skating.

RENT SAND BLASTERS, GENERATORS Optn Sunday lam to 1 UNITED RENT-ALLS Opm Sunday lam til jr (U By Associated Fresa LOS ANGELES, April 15 The record Is two out of three victories for Los Angeles but Manager Walter Alston is far from satisfied with the world champion Dodgers. THE Tt wins were a carry-over from last years weird and wild Dodger doings 3 2 over the Chicago Cubs in 11 innings, and thanks to a wild pitch with the bases loaded in the ninth inning Thursday night, 32, over St. Louis. Sandwiched between was a 4-0 Cub triumph Wednesday night "Our hitting has been bad but I have no kicks about the pitching, Alston said Friday as the Dodgers took the day off. They resume their series with the Cardinals Saturday night Evidence that Old Smokey was somewhat unhappy came when he disclosed he had planned to have the club stay overtime Thursday night for batting practice.

But Alston relented in view of the exciting vfindup. Alston, by necessity perhaps, mixed his criticism of such famed sluggers as Duke Snider Direct Drive Ne lolN Dee HundrelM of Job SIS IT TODAY Most came on the strength of the 13-0 romp over Cincinnati Thursday afternoon. Roberto Clemente, the Pirates right fielder, Is way out there with a .714 average and six runs batted in for two games. Dick Groat is hitting .625, Cal McLish, a 19-game winner at Cleveland last year, failed in his first outing for Cincinnati, lasting less than three Innings. However, the Reds are happy with Billy Martins .500 average and the .429 hitting of rookie Tony Gonzalez, the new right fielder.

SAN FRANCISCOS park brought a flurry of con-flicting reports. First, the wind was so tricky it was believed that nobody would hit a left field homer. Then Thursday night Ernie Banks hit a grand slammer into the cross wind and over the fence. Willie Mays, incidentally, is rolling along at a .500 clip. The Chicago Cubs hoped for new power from Frank Thomas and they got a sample.

After going hitless in seven trips, Thomas hit a three-run homer off Los Angeles Larry Sherry Wednesday night and came through with the winning double off the Giants Billy ODell Thursday night. Los Angeles won a couple of one-run games and was shut out by the Cubs Glen Hobble, After the shutout, manager Walter Alston benched center fielder Don Demeter and called on rookie Tom- Davis in a search for more punch. Sherry lost his first as a starter but gets another try Sunday against St. Louis. St.

Louis was the only nonwinner, dropping three straight, 3-1, 61 and THE PITCHING wasnt bad, except for Vinegar Bend Mi-zell who was knocked out in the third inning by the Giants, and the wild pitch by relief pitcher Bob Duliba that lost Thursday nights game to the Dodgers. Nobody has been hitting. Daryl Spencer, the ex-Giant, is 9 for 11 and the club average is a sad .163. i Unloading Device Toaitf RICHFIELD Will, Stick 170 North Mala St. SAIT LAKE CITY ftorraff A abort, Aot Salto 40 Sooth Mata St.
