Both waged a hot battle for the No. 1 Job in fall camp, with Churchich winning out for the first three games. However, last week against Iowa State, Bobby got off to a shaky start and Duda came in to spark a second-quarter outburst that led to a 44-0 rout. The situation is indeed ironic. Prior to the Iowa State game, Duda mused: just hope I get to play against Iowa State.

Sailors say bad luck wull come to anyone who harms one of want to Los Angeels Camilo Pascual will try to make it three in a row for the surging Minnesota Twins, and Claude Osteen will attempt to halt the rout of the Los Angeles Dodgers Saturday as the teams resume World Series play at Dodger Stadium before 55,000 fans. Jolted by the Twin disaster in Minnesota where both Sandy Koufax and Don Drysdale were beaten, the Dodgers hope the return to native soil and their spacious park will help.

Warm sunshine, cutting through the smog and fog, was expected to send the thermometer to the mid-70s by game time. 2 p.m. CST. There will be the usual Network (NBC) radio and television coverage. After the pair of defeats at Metropolitan Stadium, the Dodgers dropped from favortles to 3-1 underdogs because they had been beaten in their strength- pitching.

Osteen, a talented left-hander who was acquired from Washington last winter, never lost to the Twins in his American League days, managing a 5-0 record against them. In Los Angeles, Osteen is regarded as a tough-luck pitcher because the club seldom scores many runs behind him, but he has a 15-15 record. Actually, the club seldom scores many runs behind anybody and have scored only three in the first two Series games. Pascual, a talented Cuban curveball artist, missed seven weeks late in the season after an operation on his back. He pitch from July 28 to Sept.

6, and finished with a 9-3 record. He is a deliberate workman who will be In sharp contrast with Osteen, a quick pitcher. With another left-hander working for the Dodgers, Manager Sam Mele of the Twins will leave rookie Joe Nossek in center field and Bob Allison in left. It was diving catch on Jim Lefebvre in the fifth inning of second game that helped save the day for Jim Kaat. Walter Alston expected to go with the same line-up that played the first two, reversing a couple of positions in the order to compensate for the right-handed Pascual.

been on both ends of this said Alston. 1955 we lost the first two to the Yankees and then beat them in seven. In 1956, we beat them the first two and then lost the When Maury Wills stepped off the plane at the airport Thursday night he told a reporter, Bavasi (Dodger general manager) said we can win four straight and we still can do it." Only four clubs have bounced back to win a Series after losing the first two. In addition to the 1955 Dodgers and 1956 Yanks, the 1958 Yanks did it against Milwaukee and the 1921 New York Giants against the Yankees in- a best-of-nine series. Mele and the Twins tuned up at Dodger Stadium after the National League champions had worked out on open date for travel.

The baked infield that speeds sharply bouncing grounders and the distant fences gave the Dodgers new hope. Minnesota hit only one homer in the park in nine regular season games against the California The pre-series book seems to have been tossed out the window except for the predictions that the Twins would out-hit the Dodgers. The American Leaguers are doing just that .288 to .243 and have eight extra base hits to only one for the Dodgers. Los Angeles was supposed to have the pitching, but Drysdale last three innings and Koufax went out for a hitter after six. Both Jim Grant in the opener and Jim Kaat in the second game went all the way for the Twins.

They said the Twins were shakv on defense and the Dodgers slick, but Minnesota has no errors and Los Angeles has logged four. The only stolen base is by Zoilo Versalles not Wills. When Koufax and Drysdale were beaten on the same day in a doubleheader with Pittsburgh Sept. 1 it was Osteen who righted the Dodger ship the next day. Unless Osteen can handle the Twins, the book says the Dodgers Nobody ever has come back after losing the first three.

There has not been an American League sweep since the 1950 Yanks over the Phillies.

Kentucky Statistics Kentucky was fifth in total offense and ninth in defense in the Southeastern Conference last season, that, the Wildcats finished in a tie for second in the standings with a i-2 SEC record. Sadaj broke loose on a 59-yard touchdown run here Friday night to give Bellevue a 6-0 victory over Southeast. The play was conly the seventh of the third quarter and broke up what otherwise was a fierce defensive battle that left the teams between th e30-yard lines most of the night. The Knights almost pulled it out in the final minutes. Southeast took the ball on its 47 and got down to the Bellevue 32 where Jon Roberts threw a halfback-pass to end Bill Gylford but the ball slipped out of hands in the end zone.

A Roberts to Kos pass on the next play, fourth down, fell incomplete with a 1:40 to go. Bellevue ran out the clock from there. The Knights looked down-bound the first time it had the ball with some nifty running and with Kos throwing the ball. 76ers Place 1st In NBA Tourney Raleigh, N.C. (JPI The Philadelphia 76ers, riding the precision shooting of Hal Greer, defeated the St.

Louis Hawks 117-109 in the finals of a National Basketball Association exhibition tournament. The Boston Celtics, defending NBA champions, shook off two determined bids by the Baltimore Bullets in the second half and won the consolation game 115-108. Greer scored 27 points for the 76ers and Player-Coach Richie Guerin led the Hawks with 16. But the drive died at the 36. In the second quarter it was turn as the Chieftains put on a 40-yard march that also died, thanks to Paul Merritt and Gylford dropping Roger Smith for an eight-yard loss.

Smith, noted for his passing, was hurried in the second quarter by Merritt several times. In the third quarter the Chieftains stuck mainly on the ground but Southeast always was there to make the stop except on run. The loss leaves Southeast at 1-3-1 for the season.
