Andy Larson went the distance for the Orioles and pitched a strong game after a shaky start in the first inning. Two singles, two doubles and an error produced all three Hart runs in the first inning.

After that, Larson allowed only one hit, a single, the rest of the way. He retired 14 men in a row before an error and a single ended the streak. The Orioles had the bases loaded in the fourth inning but couldn't get a run across. In the seventh, Steve Bogner got a pinch hit, went to second on a passed ball and scored on Dave Bloomer's single. Bloomer had two hits in four trips.

Larson fanned four men during the game. The Orioles collected six hits and committed two errors. ing matches are averaged Into season's play to provide weekly handicaps for future matches.

Defending champion Ken Venturi, one of 31 who has a free pass into the finals June 17-20, scheduled a practice round over the Bellerive Country Club course today his first golf since he dropped out in the second round of the Masters.

Venturi was suffering from a circulatory ailment, known as Renard's Phenomenon, which severely restricts the use of his hands. "I couldn't make a fist," he said Monday. "I couldn't even hit a ball 200 yards at Augusta." He planned three practice rounds over the site of this year's a day beginning today while some 2,000 pros and amateurs throughout the country sought some 490 positions in sectional tournaments. There were few major failures in the local qualifications at 47 sites Monday, involving more than 1200 pros and about 600 amateurs. The rest of the local qualifying is scheduled today, at eight locations, including the rain-delayed wind-up at Lincoln, Neb.

In all, for the two days, 1,530 pros and 702 amateurs sought 490 spots in the sectionals in Chicago; Cincinnati; Portland, Dallas; Los Angeles; Denver; Atlanta; Chevy Chase, Detroit; St. Louis; New York; Charlotte, and Cleveland, June 7-8. Most of the touring pros who had to qualify sought 40 places in Memphis, site of last week's four-day $60,000 Memphis Open. One of the casualties there was Bob McCallister, who took $3,175 for a share of second place in the Memphis Open.

Park Ludington Representing WOODMEN ACCIDENT AND LIFE COMPANY Clay, Liston Battle It Out Tonight LEWISTON, Maine a television studio named the Central Maine Youth Center, heavyweight champion Cassius Clay and Sonny Liston will meet again tonight in a 15-round title fight which will be telecast live to millions in North America and Europe. Reports that there may be an attempt on Clay's life by followers of the slain Black Nationalist leader Malcom have increased interest in this controversial return bout but failed to cause any noticeable stir at the ticket office. There may be only 3,000 paying customers in the high school hockey rink when Clay, a 13-10 underdog, steps into the ring at 9:30 p.m., EST, to defend his crown against the man he dethroned in a controversial fight in Miami Beach 15 months ago.

But, through the magic of closed-circuit television and the Early Bird satellite, millions of fans will get a chance to see these two strapping fighters strive to answer the many questions people have been asking since the unbeaten Clay bcame champion on Feb. 25, 1964. On that night, the brash young gladiator from Louisville, ascended to boxing's most prized throne when the formidable Liston, a prohibitive 7-1 favorite, quit oh his stool after the sixth round of a strange contest. At the end of the fourth round Clay, claiming he was "blinded" and unable to see, wanted to quit. At the end of the sixth, Liston, blood streaming from a wide and deep gash under his left eye, and complaining that his left shoulder was injured, yielded his title.

They were supposed to have met in Boston last November but an emergency hernia operation for Clay forced a postponement and then a dispute over the promotional background finally sent the fight out of Boston to this textile town of 40,000. So, at last the two bitter rivals appear set to have it out In the ring in a town still surprised at greatest attraction. At prices of $25, and $100, only 3,000 or so spectators may pay about $150,000 for the live bout, but the closed circuit telecast to 258 locations in North America, the Mutual Broadcasting System's radio broadcast, the Early Bird transmission to Europe and other extras may make this a $5-million promotion. Each fighter will collect in the neighborhood of $600,000 and up for a battle that few experts expect to go the limit. The 23-year-old Clay earlier had predicted he would flatten his rival in nine rounds, three rounds, and "early." On the eve of his first defense, however, he would not predict any round.

I'm just going to beat that tired old man," said Clay, winner of all 20 of his pro fights, 16 by knockouts. "I'm gonna get him on a knockout," said Liston, listed as 31 years old but believed to be at least five years older. "I made a mistake I ain't gonna make again. I got new plans. If he comes to fight, it'll be short.

If he comes to run, I'll have to trap him." "I'm gonna let him come," said Clay. "And when he does I'm gonna circle him and stick and stick. I'm gonna pop, pop, pop him." Freehan's Bat Gives Tigers 8-4 Triumph Grand Slam Ruins Chisox Monday Night CHICAGO (AP) The biggest thrill a hitter can have is to hit a grand slam home run. In the case of Detroit's Bill Freehan it has to be doubly so. First of all because Freehan had never before hit a home run with the bases loaded.

Secondly because Freehan hit 18 home runs last year and 16 of them came with the bases empty. And Freehan's statistical battle doesn't end there. He went to bat 66 times in spring training without a homer and his first 96 at bats season failed to produce a round tripper. But Freehan is intent on catching up quickly. He slugged his first homer against Baltimore Sunday and then produced a pair Monday night against the league-leading Chicago White Sox to lead the Tigers to an 8-3 victory.

He capped, a six-run rally in the third inning with his grand slam and' then resorted to his old habit and hit one with the bases empty in the fifth. Better Hit "I didn't hit either of those two balls as well as I did the one that was caught in the eighth inning," said Freehan, "but the way.things are going I'll take them both." The 23-year-old Freehan signed a bonus contract after playing one year of baseball at the University of Michigan where he set a Big Ten batting record of .585 for one season. Freehan refused to attribute his batting difficulties to a torn back muscle suffered in spring training. He missed a little more than two weeks of the season and then returned wearing a brace. "I took the brace off about two weeks ago," said Freehan.

"I didn't think it was doing me that much good and I believe it was putting me at a psychological disadvantage. "I also had a slow start last year," continued Freehan. "I got hot, tailed off in July and then had a great month in August. If I can protect against a bad July maybe I'll have a big year. "Slumps are funny things.

You know you're not swinging well so you decide to start going up the middle to get some base hits. Then you find you're not swinging hard. Looks like it might pay off. "You know you have to hit 300 to make the big money and help your club and that's the thing I want to do again."

or After 10 p.m. defeating the Chicago Cubs 6-4. Don Clendenon, the juvenile authority, continued his torrid hitting pace, collecting three hits in four at-bats. Manager Casey Stengel, 74, sent out Warren Spahn, 44, and Frank Lary, 34, to try and halt the Mets' six-game losing streak. To do it, they had to beat the best the Phillies had to offer Jim Bunning and Chris Short.

They did left-hander Spahn by scattering 10 hits in the opener and right-hander Lary by hurling a one-hitter through eight innings in the second game. Clendenon, meanwhile, brought his eight-game streak to 16 hits in 31 trips to the plate for a .516 average. His over-all mark has rocketed 56 points to .331. A graduate of Morehouse College, Clendenon worked this past winter in the office of the district attorney of Allegheny County (Pittsburgh) as a member of a special committee on juvenile delinquency. The Pirates remain in last place, IVi games behind the Mets.

Elsewhere in the NL, St. Louis defeated Los Angeles 6-4, Cincinnati stopped Houston 5-2 and Milwaukee edged; San Francisco 4-3. In the American League, New York trampled Cleveland 15-5, Detroit whipped Chicago 8-3 and Baltimore nipped Washington 21. Spahn evened his record at 44 in the opener as Ed Kranepool drove in three runs with a two- run homer in the first and a fifth-inning triple. The loss for Bunning, now 3-4, was his first to the Mets after six victories.

Lary allowed only Ton Gonza lez' one-out single in the sixth for eight innings. But Gonzalez led off the ninth with a homer, and Richie Allen followed with a single. Frank McGraw then came on and saved Lary's first victory. Short, 4-5, gave up a three-run homer to Johnny Lewis in the four-run sixth.

Get ali the me todayj DON GALLIE 119 DIANA STREET Timberlake's New Role KANSAS CITY (AP Bob Timberlake, All-America quarterback at Michigan last fall now with the New York Giants, says he realized 11 months ago the more fame and publicity he received, the more he understood "that my whole life was really off the track." This realization may have been the turning point in events which led to his decision to enter the ministry and to become active in the Fellowship of Christian Athletes. Timberlake, here Monday for the FCA's 10th anniversary dinner, said the starting point was his return to regular church attendance at the urging of his fiancee, Bobbi Holub of Union, Ward Fails To Qualify INDIANAPOLIS (AP) Rodger Ward, the U.S. Club's all-time point leader who can't remember when he last failed to qualify for a championship race, is standing on the sidelines at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway for the first time in 15 years.

The 44-year-old Ward was the 34th-fastest qualifier when time trials for the 500-mile classic ended Sunday night. Only the top 33 cars will start the race. "I can't remember the last time I failed to qualify for a championship race," Ward said dejectedly. Ward has been a recognized "500" leader for most of his 14 seasons at the brickyard. "This brought me under the guidance of Dr.

Ernest T. Campbell, minister of the First Presbyterian Church at Ann Arbor," Timberlake said. "He is a great "I realized my whole life was really off the track. As I moved toward the top In athletics my life only seemed more empty," he said. "I tried to change," Timberlake said.

"Then I read a book, 'A Man Called Peter'. Sometimes when Peter had a problem he let God work it out. "This was an entirely new concept to me. I decided to let God help me." The Michigan All-American, who led his team to a Rose Bowl victory over Oregon State, said his interest in the FCA solidified when he met Billy Wade last August at the Chicago Bears training camp. Wade is a member of the FCA advisory council.

Timberlake helped form an FCA chapter on the Michigan Campus last fall. He said the response "was immediate and surprising." An important factor in Michigan's success last fall, Timberlake believes, was that "we had six committed Christians who helped hold the club together." He plans to participate in three FCA national summer 6-11 at Black Mountain, N.C., June 14-19 at Estes Park, and June 2025 at Lake Geneva, Wis. Timberlake will attend Princeton Seminary, Princeton, N.J., next spring. He will join the Giants after the all-star game in Chicago. At 21, 6-foot-4 and 215 pounds, the talented native of Franklin, Ohio, has all it takes to succeed in the National Football League.

"Being a Christian is more important than football," he said. "I am striving for total commitment. This is what all Christians strive for, but most of us hold back, reserve something for ourselves."
