Spahn Wins Milwaukee's Braves and ageless Warren Spahn beat San Francisco 6-4 in the only other National League day game while the Chi- cago White Sox edged Minnesota 3-2 and Detroit took Washington 5-1 in the American League. Three night games were sched- uled. They included the Los An- geles Dodgers, who played the Cincinnati Redlegs at Cincinnati and lost 14-0, the Pittsburgh Pirates, playing in Philadelphia and defeating the Phillies 4-3, and the New York Yankees, who were defeated by the Baltimore Orioles 1-0 at Baltimore. Kansas City played at Los Angeles. Banks Wins It Banks' homer in the bottom of the 10th won it for the Cubs, who had lost three previous games to the new Colts. The blow tied him for ninth on the all-time list- of National League home run hitters with Chuck Klein of the Cubs and Phillies. The cards, who have yet to lose in five starts, pounded out 18 hits, including four homers, in the rout of the Mets. Kenny Boyer had two homers, each a wrong-field blow down the right field foul line, and Julian Javier and Carl Warwick one each as every Cardinal starter hit safely. Stan Musial, off to a blistering start this season, had two hits and drove in two runs. Pirates Cop 7th The undefeated Pittsburgh Pi- rates extended their National League winning streak to seven games in a row last night by de- feating the Philadelphia Phillies 4-3. Spahn- was credited with his 310th career victory, his first of the season after two losses, after he started Milwaukee's winning rally in the eighth with a walk. The Braves trailed 3-2 when Spahn walked, but Eddie Mathews dou- bled in two runs and Frank Boll- ing singled in two more before the inning was over and Milwau- kee was home safe. Mossi Stops Nats Don Mossi stopped Washington on five hits and struck out five in leading the Tigers to their victory. Al Kaline produced the punch with a first inning homer and a 400- foot double. Joe McClain was the loser. Pitcher Ray Herbert and Al+ Smith hit homers for the White Sox, but a single by Floyd Robin- son drove in the winner in the sixth as Minnesota lost its fourth straight. Bob Allison had a home; run for the losers. Pappas Homers1 Milt Pappas pitched the first six innings of a 1-0 victory over the New York Yankees tonight and hit the game-winning homerI for the Baltimore Orioles. Jim O'Toole gave up only four hits tonight and Vada Pinson1 drove in five runs as the Cincin-9 nati Reds clobbered the Los An-I geles Dodgers, 14-0.1 By STAN KUKLA The Michigan gymnastic team held its election for next year's captain and this year's most val- uable player yesterday and award- ed both honors to Gil Larose. "He made a fine contribution to the team this year and will be a valuable asset to next year's squad," said coach Newt Loken, commenting on Larose's election. "He will make an excellent re- placement for retiring captain Tom Oosterland." Do My Best "I'm glad I was elected," said Larose, "and I'll do my best to lead the squad as well as Tom has this year; it'll be tough following his example." Larose cites the competion of his high bar routine in the Big Ten Meet as his biggest thrill *in the past season. It was a personal triumph for Larose. Earlier he had been in excellent shape, then he jammed his finger in a meet with Michigan State. Black Hawks Need Victor In Toronto ,.

At the time of the meet, his finger was still very painful but he competed and did quite well. Wait'll Next Year Looking toward next year, La- rose saw nothing but roses for the squad. "We have some fine freshman Trampolinists coming up plus our hold-overs from this year's above-average team." Larose has planned an exhaust- ing schedule for himself to get into shape for next year's com- petition. In a couple of weeks, he will go to Seattle, Wash. to compete in; an international meet to be held there. Then, he will compete in the Canadian National meets in Montreal, his hometown. The six top finishers in the Canadian meet will go to Prague for a international meet. Larose, considered one of the best Cana- dian gymnasts, is almost a sure bet to make the trip. If Larose does make the trip, he wil have to compete from July 3 to July 8. Then he will spend about a month touring Europe and appearing in exhibition meets. By September, Larose plans to be in the best physical and mental con- dition he has ever been in, and ready to lead Michigan's quest for a third straight Big Ten title. TORONTO () --- The rough, tough Chicago Black Hawks hope to land at least a partial haymaker against Toronto tonight with a victory away from home and then roll to their second straight Stan- ley Cup championship. With the momentum of two vic- tories in Chicago after losing their first two games in Toronto, the Hawks aim to duplicate their semi- final triumph over Montreal by sweeping the final four games. The Hawks know they must win one game away from home to de- fend the Cup successfully, since four games will be played in Tor- onto if the series goes seven games. And Toronto Coach Punch Im- lach called both clubs a couple of homers adding that it's perfectly okay with him if the series con- tinues on the current win-at- home, lose-on-the-road basis. Toronto Goalie Johnny Bower, injured in Tuesday night's loss, was to leave Swedish Covenant Hospital yesterday and return to Toronto by plane. It was reported at the hospital that Bower, who injured his groin while blocking a shot, was in good condition but it was uncertain whether he would be available for tonight's fifth Cup game in Toron- to. "I don't know if Bower will be able to play tonight," said Pilous, "But if he doesn't, the Leafs may be more inspired and just that much tougher." Imlach wasn't worried either way. If Bower is fit, so much the better. If not, Imlach feels Sim- mons is an adequate replacement. "He's a good goalie and has a great playoff record," said Imlach, "and if we have to use him, he'll at least know ahead of time that he's going. to play." --Daily-Bruce Taylor WINNING FORM-Gil Larose, captain-elect of the gymnastics team, demonstrates the form which led him to third place in the all-around in the Big Ten meet and earned for him the Most Valuable Player award from his teammates.

He wrote: "When I have finish- ed at Cambridge, if it suits you, I will be down at Protsea (the Cer- utty training camp) and with some real hard work will do this chap, Snell. "This I am fully convinced we can do if I get sufficient training in time." If Elliott passes his exams he will finish at Cambridge next year. Cerutty said yesterday he was confident he can get Elliott to run in the Commonwealth Games at Perth, where he would meet New Zealander Peter Snell, who holds the mile record of 3:54.4.
