.4. PAPPAS RAPPED IN HOMETOWN DEBUT DETROIT FREE PRESS Wednesday, June 25. 1958 21 Foytack Shows Tigers He Can Win9 Too9 5-0 V- 'v V'T-- Golfers Jam FP School 1,445 Boys, Girls Learn to Tee Off -sis 1 ifr 1 i 'icA It gte'WrVrffe Ml 1 I irfc "I don't believe in miracles BY TOM McPHAIL Dick who is just the right size for a nine-year-old, discovered Tuesday that he was just a tee shot away from a summer of fun. So did 1,444 other Detroit 1 90 and suburban youngsters who took their first lesson in the giant Free Press Junior Golf School. Their response record for the seven-year-old school is expected to keep growing.

Head City professional Chet Jawor said he expects the en Baltimore Gets Only Five Hits Bengals Clinch It With Spree in 5th BY HAL MIDDLESWORTII Paul Foytack had his shaken morale restored Tuesday night but the rampaging Tigers didn't do young Milt Pappas any good. Foytack ended a three-week victory drouth with a five-hit shutout performance which was good for a 5-0 decision over the Baltimore Orioles before 20,022 Briggs Stadium fans. Pappas, making his hometown debut as a big league pitcher just a year after leaving Cooley High School, was Foy-tack's victim. The 19-year-old righthander's three-game winning streak was snapped when Gail Harris tied into him for a tremendous second inning home run and the Tigers erupted for four more runs in the fifth. THAT WAS the last round for Pappas, who scored his first American League victory over the Tigers at Baltimore May 4 and went on to a 4-1 record with an earned run average of 1.85 before the Bengals cooled him off.

Except for two innings, Pappas pitched well against the club which spurned him when he finished a. brilliant prep career here. But a succession of five sizzling smashes in the fifth dashed his hopes and boosted his ERA to 2.57 for 48 23 innings this spring. Foytack reestablished his mastery of the Orioles after getting knocked out twice in the first inning by the club he had beaten five straight times before this year. The slender righthander was shaky at the start, as he has been ever since his last previous triumph, a six-hit shutout of the Chicago White Sox May 31.

HE SETTLED DOWN after BURLY BILL -who says he's just a country boy in a big city, had a simple explanation for the Tigers' surge of 10 victories in the 13 games since he took over as manager two weeks ago. "I got 25 good, players," he told 175 members and guests of the Detroit Kiwahis Club, No. 1, Tuesday noon.

YOUNG MORTON, who at 4- foot-6, is just a few inches taller than the top of his driver, took his first lesson at Palmer Park with 158 other boys and girls. It was fun different and easy. Jawor, during a li2-hour session, demonstrated to Dick and his new golfing part- ners the fundamentals of grip and stance. The blond third-grader, who lives at 19393 Carrie, found it as easy as catching a toad or swatting a tape covered baseball.

A A 27.S4S. 20.0-2. A LAZY-LIKE SWING along the sports trail with nothing but random thoughts in mind: Changing managers has put new teeth in the Tigers since ex-dental student Bill Norman was rushed in to do a fast repair job two weeks ago. But when you get right down to the roots of the resurgence, the proof is in the pitching. In winning 11 of their last 14 games under Norman, Tiger pitchers gave up a total of 13 runs.

That's fantastic but only until you check on another bounce-back ballclub the Chicago White Sox. When the Tigers started to bounce, they were in the basement and the Chisox were only a half -game better in seventh. They have climbed in tandem. Pitching covers both ascents. For the Chicagoans have yielded but eight runs in their last nine victories with six of 'em shutouts.

Put them together. Detroit and Chioago have won 20 of their last 27 games. In those 20 victories, they fed the opposition a starvation diet of only 21 runs. Top this one: Marlene Bauer Hagge, honey-blonde golfer, is only 24. But when she tees off Thursday at Forest Lake in the U.S.

Women's Open she will be playing her 20th season of golf. She started at four, was only eight when she qualified for the championship flight of the South Dakota women's tourney and won the Los Angeles women's title at a tender 13. Richards Carries 'Positive9 Proof MANAGER PAUL RICHARDS of the Orioles, tired of innuendo that he paid Detroiter Milt Pappas more than baseball law permitted when he signed the rookie pitcher a year ago, carries new proof these days. He has a photostat of Milt's 1957 Federal income tax report. It reveals that Pappas earned $4,600 and not all of it from baseball.

Since 1924, only two big league pitcher have won 20 games for a tailend ballclub. Both of them now pitch for Kansas City. Ned Garver, onetime Tiger, had a 20-14 record 1951 for the tailend St. Louis Browns while Murray Dickson was 20-16 the same season for the eighth place Pirates. Just for the record only four other pitchers have hit the 20-mark with rock-bottom teams: Noodles Hahn was 22-19 for the 1901 Reds, Scott Perry was 21-19 for Philadelphia in 1918, Howard Ehmke was 20-17 for the 1923 Red Sox and in 1924 Sloppy Thurston had a 20-14 record with the Chisox.

Bracket Wilson ivith the Best COACH GEORGE WTLSON of the Lions says it's okay with him now that he has been assigned the job of dickering with his players at contract-signing time. "I know some coaches shy away from the job," he admits. "They think it unwise to get in arguments with the players about money problems. But Paul Brown signs 'em over at Cleveland while George Halas does it with the Bears. "I sure don't mind beng.

put in the same boat with coaches like them. Credit Bob Addie, Washington sports columnist, with this one about the Tigers: "Detroit can't seem to make up its mjnd about 'tough guy' managers. First, Bucky Harris was too soft. Then Jack Tighe was supposed to carry the iron-fist. Now.
