CR LO ae ree IT DIDN'T WORK ! Boston Red Sox shortstop Eddie Bres- soud tried to score after hit- ting a long drive in N.Y. Yan- kee Stadium yesterday, but he found the plate blocked by Yankee catcher Elston How- ard. Howard, waiting for Bres- soud, with the ball in his glove, tagged Eddie for the out. Bressoud was trying for an inside-the-park homer, af- ter hitting the ball over the head of Yankee centre-fielder Mickey Mantle, in the 3rd in- Tresh And Lopez May Keep Kubek On Yankee Bench? By BOB GREEN Associated Press Sports Writer Manager Ralph Houk of New York Yankees has a problem that would be welcomed by every other manager in major league baseball. What should he do with Tony Kubek? The versatile Kubek, the Yanks' regular shortstop last season and rated by many as the best outfielder on the team, is scheduled to be released from military duty Wednesday and rejoin the American League leaders next Friday. He is much too good to be s kept off the team, but it will be difficult to find a spot for him. It's all the fault of Tom Tresh and Hecor Lopez. The switch-hitting Tresh, who their hot hitting in Thursday's 13-3 rout of Boston Red Sox. Tresh belted his ninth homer of the season and a single. Lopez drove in two runs with a double and a single. Chicago White Sox gained fifth place with a 7-1 victory over Washington Senators in the only other game scheduled. The Yanks, who have won 12 of their last 15 games, knocked off Boston's Gene Conley with an eight-run third inning and built their league lead to. three games over Los Angeles Angels. Clete Boyer's two-run homer climaxed the big inning against the six-foot-eight righthander.

Tresh's homer featured the three-run sixth that ran the score to 13-0. Rookie Jim Bouton (4-2) had) a four-hit shutout going into the seventh inning when Boston chased him with a three-run burst. Bob Turley finished up. Bob Johnson's solo homer in the ninth inning prevented Chi- cago's Ray Herbert (10-6) from gaining his first shutout of the season. The White Sox jumped on Washington's Bennie Daniels (4-11) for two runs in the first frame, two more in the second and Al Smith's two-run homer in the sixth, snapping Daniels' three - game. winning string.

Campbell SPORTS EDITOR 'Everything From Soup To Nuts' KIWANIS BANTAM finalists for the right to represent Oshawa in OASA provincial playdowns, were decided last night when C ght Park tr d North Oshawa in their third and deciding game, in lop-sided fashion. Without their top pitcher, Anlauf, the North Oshawans were no match for the power of the Connaught team. Young Cook, who was very effective as a relief pitcher in the second game, found that the Connaughters had adjusted their timing to his' slower, ortho- dox delivery and they hit him hard last night. In the other bracket, it was entirely different. Behind a stellar pitching performance by Willson,. Nipigon almost upset the highly-re garded Storie Park team. Wilson held Storie to three runs for seven innings and his mates tied the game in the 8th, but a two-run homer in the bottom of that inning, won the game and series for Storie Park, who will now meet Connaught Park in the OASA final round here. First game of the finals is scheduled for Monday, August 13. In the Midget series, Sun- nyside defeated Southmead 9-5, to even up that semi-final round. These teams will play their third game on Friday, August 10, since the winner must also open that final round on August 13. Woodview and Radio will likely play the second game of their series on August 10 also, since they, too, must have a winner ready to play on the Monday night. THIS YEAR'S Canadian Open Golf Championship, current- ly being played at Laval-sur-le-Lac, just outside Montreal, may turn out to be something less than an outstanding suc- cess. Already there have been criticisms of the prices being charged for a cup of coffee and/or a sandwich and the length of the grass on the fairways. Yesterday the weatherman wasn't very. co-operative either and then to further dampen the enthusiasm of the cash customers, the spectators who form the gallery which adds to both the color and profits of such an event, the crowd's No. 1 favorite was eliminated yes- terday -- in fact, he disqualified himself. Gary Player, who last week won the U.S. PGA title, realized that he had scored a "six" on a certain hole when he actually had used seven strokes -- and when his error was realized, in a check-up after the round, the South African shot wizard, didn't hesi- tate -- he promptly "blew- the whistle" on himself, which mean automatic disqualification. All ills and pains will be cured if they moved into a red-hot semi-final and finale but in the meantime, the fact that George Knudson, a Toronto pro, is the first day's leader, is likely not enough in itself to stir the hearts of the fans down thattaway. But, if they could make it George "Richard" -- aha, that would be different ! BRIGHT BITS: -- A Quebec swimmer, Yvan Cliche, who on Tuesday attempted to swim across Lac St. Jean, a dis- tance of 21 miles, swam 17 miles and then collapsed. Later "goofballs" were found in a bottle supposed to contain glu- cose pills (a sugar pill, for energy) so they think somebody didn't want the swimmer to accomplish the feat... . MAR- CEL BONIN, 30-year-old winger with Montreal Canadiens, is going to retire, on his doctor's advice. An old back injury has been "kicking up" again, so he decided to retire now. . - . CINCY REDLEGS won their 9th-straight game yester- day, a 5-3 thriller over the Pirates, to prolong another of the sudden bursts that is keeping the National League race, red-hot with interest these days. Six Senior Teams In Salaried Group KITCHENER (CP) -- A six- team salaried Senior A Ontario operate in a new Senior B Hockey Association Series has been formed. In the league are Windsor Bulldogs, Chatham Maroons Sania Rams, Woodstock Ath- leties, Kitchener-Waterloo Tig- ers and Galt Terriers. All six) clubs were members of last year's OHA Senior series in which there was no A or B classification and which oper- ated on a share-the-wealth ba- sis. Two other members of last! season's loop, Stratford Indians and Strathroy Rockets, were not represented at Thursday night's meeting and are not planning to enter. Both hope to league now being formed, sen- jor conyener C. G. (Pat) Pat- terson of Guelph said.

NORTH OSHAWA North Oshawa Plaza Foods walloped Zion 26-9 in their Ban- tam game, played at Zion, where North Oshawa girls scored seven runs in the first inning and added nine in the third frame, besides scoring in every inning except the sixth, Tweedie's homer for Zion in the fifth inning was their best effort, although all tired hard. SUNNYSIDE GIRLS Sunnyside Park Bantam girls visited Harman Park and came home with a 30-10 triumph, thanks to good pitching by Brown, which found only God- frey, Campbell, Braznik, Blan- chard and Levett of the losers, able to do much at the plate while Chapman, Eldridge, Mit- ton, VandeWalker sisters and Bradica were all to the fore for Sunnyside. The winners. scored 12 runs, enough to win it, in the very first inning. A TIE GAME Kingside Park Pee Wee boys were at home to Bathe Park lads last night and when it was all over, they were still the same as they started, all even, except each team had scored eight runs. Paterek, with two triples and a single, was the big hitter for Kingside with Lupel and Baliski giving good help. For Bathe Park, who got six of their eight runs in the first inning, Rollo, Shrigley brothers and Felix all hit well while Butler hit a two-run homer in the fifth to rate the tie. Kingside had to score four runs in the 7th, to avoid defeat. He is hitting .284, a climb of almost 20 points in the last month.

The Johannesburg golfer told Ken Venturi, in the same threesome, to score the 10th as a six. Later, when review- ing his nound with Bruce Dev- lin of Australia, Player said it suddenly struck him that he had taken a seven and not @ six: The 10th hole where Player disqualified himself is a 510- yard par five. Player was said to have put his second shot under a pine tree. He just barely touched the ball in trying to get out with a putter. Then he chipped out to the fairway with the putter and then pitched to the green. It took him two putts to get down in what appeared to be a seven. He reported a six. 'Goose' Third, But Wins It Total Points TORONTO. (CP) -- The swift, six-metre sailboat Goose from the Rochester Yacht Club pushed through 18 rough miles of Lake Ontario Thursday to win the three-day North Ameri- can championships. Sailed by Timmy Barber and skipped by Jerry Castle, Goose came third in Thursday's race in winds up to 25 miles an hour. But her two previous wins eas- ily earned her the title. Goose finished the series with 25% points. Runner-up with 22% points was Buzzy II, sailed by Timmy Barber of Toronto. ST=ZL RECORD The steel plant at. Sydney, N.S., shipped a record total of more than 2,800,000 tons of steel in 1960. Apache Princess Best Of Fillies FORT ERIE, Ont. (CP) -- Apache Princess. gained a nar- row decision over Warferd, Taquomee and five other fillies in the feature race at Fort Erie Race Track Thursday. f Jockey Jerry Harrison rode Apache Princess, which gained the decision by a neck. Warferd was second by a nose over Taquomee. Apache Princess, which ran the 1 1-16 miles in 1.47, was the third betting choice with the crowd of 8,074 and returned $11.40, $4.90, and $3.90. Warferd paid $3.80 and $2:70 and Taquomee $4.70. The first race was marred by two spills, one during the post parade, the other just after the break from the starting gate. Jockey Sam Cosentino was un- seated by Worked Up during the parade and suffered a cut eye- brow which required eight stitches. Worked Up was scratched from the race.

Knudson sloshed his way through intermittent rain and thunderstorms, placing his ap- proach shots with deadly accur- acy, for a five-under-par 67 Thursday in the first round of the $30,000 classic. But the opening round was a disappointment for South Afri- ca's Gary Player, U.S. PGA champ. He disqualified himself for turning in a wrong score. Player was disconsolate over the situation when he realized long after his round that he had taken as.even at the par-five 10th hole instead of a six as he had reported in finishing his finst round of the open with a 75, far behind the leaders. Playing with power - hitting Jack Nicklaus of Columbus, Ohio, and veteran Bob Rosburg of Portland Ore., Knudson matched almost yard for yard off the tees, then picked. up his lead with his ability to hit the greens and sink key putts. the opening round of the Ca- nadian Open Golf Champion- ship, at Montreal's suburban Laval-sur-le-Lac course.
