In other games, Pittsburgh beat Philadelphia 8-5, Chicago couldn't get a man out as the Dodgers loaded the bases to set the stage for a game-winning single by Wet Parker.

Billy William hit a two-run homer in the first inning and touched off a two-run fifth with a single to pace the Cubs to the victory over Montreal. It was only the Cubs' second win in the last 13 games but moved them within four games of the Mets, who were rained out, in the Eastern Division. Jose Pagan and Al Oliver hit homers and rookie John Jeter set up two runs with a triple to lead the Pirates past the Phils. Bob Moose went 8 1-3 innings to boost his record to 11-3. Nate Colbert hit his 22nd tangled Western Division race.

The victory gave the Giants the lead at 82-06 with a 554 percentage and dropped the Braves to third at .550, one-half game back at 82-67. The Los Angeles Dodgers moved into second place, also one-half back at .551 on an 81-66 mark by sweeping a doubleheader from the Cincinnati Reds 2-1 and 3-2 in 12 innings. The two losses dropped Cincinnati two games back. Except for a 14-10 mark in 1967, Marichal's records since 1962 have been superb-25-8, 21-8, 22-13, 25-6 and 26-9. But since the Giants haven't won the pennant and have finished second four straight years, he's been faulted for not carrying the club in the Koufax or Gibson fashion.

But things could be different this season. Marichal lost four straight in midseason and his 19-10 record isn't one of his By VTTO STELUNO UPI Spoils Writer Juan Marichal has won everything for the San Francisco Giants the last seven yean except a pennant. The high-kicking righthander, who has chalked up 189 major league victories, averaged almost 24 victories a season from 1963 to 1968 but the Giants haven't won a pennant since 1962 when he was 18-11 and Jack Sanford paced the club with a 24-7 mark. But Marichal, who has been overshadowed by Sandy Koufax and Bob Gibson despite all his victories and has never won the Cy Young award, now has the opportunity to cany the Giants down the stretch run.

five came from the Big 10, the Southeast landed three places, the Pacific Coast two and the Southwest one. The teams of the 1920s furnished five members, five were from the 1930s and only one from the 1940s on. Only one collegian of recent vintage was chosen Parker, who played for Ohio State from 1954-56. Grange, the man responsible for giving pro football a shot in the arm following his fabulous collegiate career, made all-America honors in 1923-24-25. The 170-pound back had the greatest day of his career on Oct.

18, 1924 against Michigan when he scored five touchdowns and passed for a sixth in a 39-14 Blini victory. Four of his TD's came in the first 12 minutes and he rushed for 402 yards in the contest. He scored 31 touchdowns while wearing an Illinois uniform. Nagurski, at 217 pounds, made all-America honors in 1929 as a tackle. The Mlnneso-tan, who never played high school football, also played fullback for the Golden Gophers.

A run-scoring single by Hal Lanier in the second inning and Willie Mays' run-scoring double in the fifth gave Marichal all the help he needed as he posted his 45th career shutout.

Reliever Jim Brewer got credit for both victories as the Dodgers swept a pair from the Reds. In the first game, all-star catcher Johnny Bench made a throwing error to let in the winning run in the ninth inning. the tailback position. He was a consensus all-America in 1936.

His greatest day came in the 1925 Rose Bowl game when he gained 114 yards in a losing cause against Notre Dame and outgained the famed Four Horsemen in the Irish back-field. Kinard followed Nagurski in the balloting. The Mississippian played from 1935 to 1937 and was known for his love for contact. Suffridge, although weighing only 185 pounds, possessed a lightning charge and earned all-America hohors for the Vols in 1940.

Parker was an All-America in 1956 and won the Outland Trophy as the nation's best interior lineman while leading the Buckeyes to a 9-0-0 record and a victory in the Rose Bowl. Hein helped Washington State get into the Rose Bowl in 1930 last time the Cougars have visited the famed Pasadena gridiron. Oosterbaan captured All-America honors three years in a row at Michigan 1925-27. Huston possessed speed, excellent moves and great hands over the Red Sox despite Rico Petrocelli's 39th homer of the season.

Walt Williams hit three singles and a double in eight appearances, drove in two runs and scored another in the White Sox' sweep.

This was the same Patemo who displayed all the characteristics of a riverboat gambler in two bowl games in the last two years now insisting that maybe his boys should be a bit more afraid of how the ball could bounce over a long sea- "I think Penn State has the toughest schedule in the country until proven otherwise" Patemo continued. And who could deny it. After all, no one has yet seen a performance by Kansas State, Ohio University and Boston College, all of which grace Penn.

7:30 p.m. NEW YORK (UPD-Harold 'Red" Grange, the fabled Galloping Ghost from Illinois, and indestructible Bronko Nagurski of Minnesota, superstars of the golden 1920s, were the top vote getters in balloting for the modem all-time college football team announced today. Grange, whose speed, elusive-ness and general know-how made him a three-time all-America, was the only unami-mous choice on the 11-man squad picked by the Football Writers Association of America. The writers selected an early-day all-time squad and a modern squad to commemorate the 100th anniversary of college football. Bronko was Double Trouble Nagurski, probably the only collegiate star who could have rated with the best on both offense and defense, was picked at the tackle position and missed a unanimous ballot by one vote.

Other members of the modern all-time team are ends Bennie Oosterbaan of Michigan and Don Hutson of Alabama; tackle Frank "Bruiser" Kinard of Mississippi; guards Jim Parker of Ohio State and Bob Suffridge of Tennessee; center Mel Hein of Washinglun State; and backs Sammy Baugh of Texas Christian, Jay Berwan-ger of Chicago and Ernie Nevers of Stanford. Of the 11 players honored, Steelers' Hoak out of action PITTSBURGH lUFIl The Pittsburgh Steelers probably will be without Dick Hoak, No 4 rusher in the National Football League last year, when they open the season Sunday against the Detroit Lions. The Lions, who won five straight exhibition games after a 38-13 loss to Kansas City, are favored by six points. Pittsburgh, 2-3 in preseason play, trails and overall series 13-7-1 although the Steelers won (he last two meetings, 17-3 in 1966 and 24-14 in 1967. In exhibitions, the clubs met only one common opponent, New Orleans, and both won.

The Lions beat the Saints 42-8 and the Steelers beat them 34-24. With Haok, who gained 858 yards last season, on the sidelines, the Steelers will start Earl Gros and Don McCall as the running backs. McCali recently was obtained from New Orleans, where he was the club's top rusher last year. ATTENTION HUNTERS! SMALL GAME HUNTING BOOT.S We Have A Good Selection! Paul Al's 107 E. Washington Si.

3 1 I I 1 2 0 4 1 By FRED DOWN UPI Sports Writer If the trend of recent years is continued this winter, Harmon Killebrew of the Minnesota Twins is the likely winner of the American League's Most Valuable Player Award. The player who led the AL in runs batted in has won hhe award in five of the last nine years and Killebrew now is enroute to the highest season total in 20 years. The Twins' muscular slugger has driven in 134 runs, only tl fewer than the highest AL total since Ted Williams and Vem Stephens of the Boston Red Sox each knocked in 159 in 1949. Killebrew, who led the league in RBI in 1962 but lost out to Mickey Mantle in the MVP voting, hit his 44th homer and drove in three runs Tuesday when the Twins beat the Oakland Athletics, 11-3. The victory ballooned the Twins' Western Division lead over the Athletics to 10 games and reduced their magic title-clinching number to six.

The Baltimore Orioles defeated the Washington Senators, 1-0, the Cleveland Indians beat the Boston Red Sox, 5-2, the New York Yankees downed the Detroit Tigers, 7-6, in 13 innings, the Chicago White Sox swept the Califomii Angels, 7-4 and 3-2, and the Kansas City Royals edged the Seattle Pilots, 2-1, in other AL games. Dave McNally singled in the only run of the game and went 8 2-3 innings to win his 19th game against six losses for the Orioles.
