PAGE SIX THE MICHIGAN DAILY FRMA'Y, AUGUST 4,1961 PAGESIXTHE ICHGAN AIL FRIAYAUGUT 419I AL Votes Divisional Structure; igers CHICAGO (P)-American League owners voted unanimously last night for eastern and western divisional breakdowns in baseball but National League owners asked for more time to study the pro- posal. Club owners met with baseball Commissioner William Eckert for more than two hours in a joint meeting of the two leagues after each league had conducted sepa- rate meetings. The project of two divisions within each league was tabled as the two-day meetings closed. Joe Cronin, president of the American League, said, "We had a great, long discussion and covered many facets of the plan. Playoffs "American League owners all voted for divisional play," said Cronin, who added the plan would call for the winners of each of the five-team divisions to meet in a best 3-of-5 playoff for the right to represent the American League in the World Series. Eckert said, "The National 'League did not want to move this fast. The proposal did not come to a vote and, therefore, I took no action. We certainly will want to study this plan." Warren Giles, president of the National League, said the main objection to the plan was it was not presented in time to give the National League time to study it. Fourth Plays First "I don't think baseball should be put in a position where it is possible for a fourth place club to play a first place club in a World Series." What Giles meant was if the American League did go into di- visions, one divisional team with a poor record might defeat their divisional team and represent the league in the championship. In other action, Charles O. Fin- ley, 'owner of the Kansas City Athletics, issued the following statement: Move Rumors "For some time there have been persistent rumors that the Kansas City Athletics would be moved. A number of cities have been mentioned, particularly Oakland. I've had a number of conversa- official and nonofficial, and they tions with people in Oakland, both expressed great interest in our baseball team. "But no specific proposals have been made. "In the past few days I've been approached by officials who asked me to consider moving to Seattle. Agai,n no specific proposals have been made to us. To date, we have not had a lease proposal for the proposed stadium from Kansas City authorities. Nothing else is under consideration. "Under the league constitution, no move of any kind can be made without the affirmative vote of seven members of the league and have made no application to move." Defeat Baltimore, 50 Bosox Beat Kansas City; Braves Win By The Associated Press, The Detroit Tigers whipped the Baltimore Orioles 5-0 yesterday night behind the three-hit pitch- ing of Denny McLain in a game called by rain with the Tigers at bat in the eighth inning. Detroit scored twice in the eighth on a run-scoring single by Norm Cash and a sacrifice fly by Ray Oyler when rain began to fall for the third time. Bill Freehan knocked in two of the Detroit runs with a fourth- ining bloop single and a drive in the sixth which caromed off the foot of losing pitcher Bill Dillman. Al Kaline launched two of the; three Detroit rallies with doubles, scoring on Jim Northrup's double in the third and on the single byI Cash in the eighth. McLain, bringing his record to 13-12, hurled hitless ball until Brooks Robinson singled with two outs in the fourth. The Boston Red Sox moved to within two games of the American League lead by defeating Kansas City 5-3 and Atlanta smashed seven home runs in downing the Chicago Cubs 10-3 to highlightj yesterday's light baseball sched- ule. 4 '' -Associated Press MAKING HIS MOVE Coming up on the outside, Van Nelson (278) of Minneapolis makes his move in the Pan Amgerican Games men's -5,000 meter final Wednesday in Winnipeg.

WINNIPEG, Canada (A)-Har- vard's mighty eight defeated Canada's crew in a head-to-head duel of unbeaten haevy-weights yesterday in preliminary rowing trials of the Pan American Games. The victory on the Winnipeg fieldway sent the Crimson colleg- ians into Saturday's final and made them a heavy favorite for the gold medal. The Canadian crew gets a second chance in the repechage heats today for another shots at the Yanks. Stroked by Ian Gardiner of Topsfield, Mass., the Harvards, unbeaten since they lost to the Vesper Boat crew in the 1964 Olympic trials, surged to the front at the start and had a 112 length lead at the halfway mark of the 2,000 meter course. They won by that margin in 6:18 with Argen- tina third, 25 lengths behind. Four With Cox Canada led all the way in win- ning the first heat of the fours with coxswain by about a length over Cuba with Mexico third and Peru fourth in the opening event of the rowing program. Canada thus qualifies for the finals Saturday. The three losers go into a repechage, second chance for losers, Friday with the two losers of the second heat. The first three in the repe- change today also qualify for the final with the two heat winners. Argentina's South American champions came from behind to beat the United States by 12 lengths with Paraguay a badly trailing third in the second heat of the fours with cox. The United States' pairs with coxswain came from behind to beat Argentina by about three lenghts with Brazil a far trailing third in the first heat of this event. Argentina Argentina led the United States until nearly 200 meters from the finish. Then the Yanks came on and pulled away when the Argen- tine bow, Rafael Gabba, leaned over his oars and stopped rowing. It took the power of stroker Vi- cente Dean to get them across. U.S. pairs with cox from the University of Pennsylvania rallied to win the heat in the pairs with coxswain. Rowing in a stiff cross-wind, the Harvards hit a 36 beat half- way through the race and main- tained it to the end. Meanwhile, the United States HOUSTON (P) - Mohammed Ali, still claiming to be the best boxer in the world, has picked Ernie Terrell and Jimmy Ellis as the winners of tomorrow's opening matches in the tournament de- signed to determine Ali's successor as world heavyweight champion. Saturday's doubleheader of 12- rounders sanctioned at the Astro- dome by the World Boxing Asso- ciation place Terrell against Thad Spencer and Ellis against Leotis Martin. Ali made is picks for newsmen Wednesday, shortly before Federal Judge Joe Ingraham refused to permit the champion to go to Japan to fight while appealing a June 20 conviction and five-year prison sentence for faillure to be inducted April 28 into military service. Whip Everyone te:ed his style after that of the "Frazier doesn't have anyone to tinued to advance men in the box-I ing tournament. With swimming concluded and track taking the day off, activities at the Games dwindled to pre- liminary heats in rowing and scat- tered activity on the baseball, boxing and basketball front. Women's Basketball The American victory over Can- ada in women's basketball came on a free throw by Lola Ham of Laverne, Ikla. She got her chance when Canada's Diane Doyle charged her. Miss Ham converted the second of her two free throws. Action was close throughout the game and particularly so in the final minute. First, Lois Finley of Claude, Tex., scored one of two free throws to put the United States ahead 42-41 with 45 sec- onds to play. Twenty seconds later, Mary Coutts, a physical education teacher from Victoria, converted one of two free throws to tie 42- all. Then came Miss Ham's deci- ding free throw. Mrs. Carole Phillips Aspedon, captain of the United States team from Hamburg, Iowa, scored 10 of her 18 points in the second half to keep the United States in the game. Miss Finley was second high for the Americans with 12 points. Mrs. Coutts paced Canada with 11. The victory kept the United States moving toward a silver medal in the tournament behind Brazil which is unbeaten in the six team double round robin play. The United States which will con- clude competition in a game with Cuba Friday has a 5-2 record. The total was one short of the major league record of eight, shared by five clubs. The loss was the second-place Cubs' five in their last six games and dropped them six full games behind the idle St. Louis Card- inal. champion. Like Ali, Ellis frequently drops his left hand low and dances around the ring. "I've always done that, not just because I worked several years with Ali," Ellis said. "I drop the left sometimes while trying to get a man to commit himself. It's like a fish. You put a worm on the line and get a fish to bite at it." "He's a fisherman," said An- gelo Dundee manager of Ellis and former trainer of Ali. "Ellis uses that left to sucker a guy into a mistake." The WBA tournament has all the top 10 challengers except Joe Frazier, ranked No. 2, and George Chuvalo, ranked No. 10. The Saturday winners will meet winners of later matches between Karl Mildenberger and Oscar Bo- navena and Floyd Patterson and Jerry Quarry. Frazier Mistaken Ali said Wednesday he believes Frazier made a big mistake by passing up the tournament. "He'll just have to sit it out now while the others are working the next six months," Ali said. fight." Clay also said he did not think Frazier was too impressive while scoring a technical knockout over Chuvalo last month. "Three of the fighters in the tournament Terrell, Patterson and Bonavena have whipped Chuvalo," Clay said. Terrell, a former WBA cham- pion, gave Spencer the cold shoul- der at an informal weighing for the four Astrodome fighters Wed- nesday. "When I first met him," said Spencer, "he was an all-right guy. Now he's walking around like he's king of the walk." "If we speak, I have to speak first," Spencer continued. "He's looking at the rest of us guys like we're hungry fighters- bunc of hiam-'an'-eggers." "He's just lucky to have a guy like Ali around who'd fight him, because he couldn't draw flies by. himself," Spencer added. "I can't understand the way he acts either after the beating he took." Terrell lost a 15-round decision last February to Clay in the As- trodome. Terrell suffered an eye injury that required surgery. Clay Carroll, making his first "I'm picking Terrell and Ellis start of the season, limited the but the champ is the man who Cubs of seven hits in 8 1-3 innings can whip everybody in the world," to post his fourth victory against Ali said. "I'm not the champ le- seven losses. gall yand financially but you just can't take the title away from Starter Joe Niekro, the loser, me." was the victim of the first four homers.

Aaron homered and Torre doubled ahead of Boyer's sec- ond homer in the third. Rookie Bill Stoneman, the Cubs' third pitcher, served Torre's sec- ond homer to open the fifth. Both of Torre's blasts went to the wrong field - sailing deep into the right field bleachers. He also doubled, singled and walked in five appearances. If 11 Major League Standings AMERICAN LEAGUE whom he won the championship in 1964, could whip half of the boxers in the tournament. "And I could whip the rest and everybody in the audience," he said. While Ali was making another appearance at the federal court hiouse, the four heavyweights in the Saturday matches were taking pre-fight physical examinations at the Astrodc ne.
