Briles' effort has earned him the distinction o being the only pitcher to cop a shutout in the fall classic this year. Briles struck out just two but also walked only two. He went to a full count on only two other bat- ters while throwing just 99 pitches. The Pirates, meanwhile, got started early against Dave Mc- Nally, the ace of the Baltimore staff, with Rob Robertson hitting the first pitch in the second inning for a home run. Briles and Roberto Clemente, collecting his ninth hit, also drove in runs for the Pirates while Gene Clines scored on a wild pitch. After Robertson connected in the second, the P i r a t e s cracked through for another run in the same inning when Manny Sanguil- len singled, stole second and rode home on a single by Briles. In the third the Pirates em- barrassed the three-time American League champions by scoring without a hit. Gene Clines opened the inning by walking, took second as Cle- mente grounded out, streaked to third when Robinson bobbled Rob- ertson's grounder and scored on McNally's wild pitch. The Pirates Imade it 4-0 in the fifth, chasing McNally on Clines' triple and Clemente's single. -Associated Press PITTSBURGH'S GENE CLINES uses his 9.5 speed to steal second base in the first inning of the fifth World Series game. Clines, known to Pirate fans as "Little Angry," tripled and scored later in the contest, as the Bucos shutout the Orioles 4-0 behind Nelson Briles' two-hit pitching. SABRES SAWED: Esposito sparks Boston victory By The Associated Press BOSTON-Phil Esposito, who set a National Hockey League scoring record with 152 points in the 1970- 71 season, connected for two goals and contributed three assists last night in leading the Boston Bruins to a 6-2 victory over the Buffalo Sabres in steamy Boston Garden. Esposito's left wink, Wayne Cashman, also scored two goals' while linemate Ken Hodge collected four assists. The line set an NHL record by scoring 140 goals and '0336 points last year. Veterans Bobby Orr and Johnny Bucyk also got into the scoring act for the first time this year. Orr, runnerup to Esposito for the league's scoring championship with 139 points, last season, scored on C so CO-M-m-1ssion a slap shot from outside the blue line in the closing seconds of the second period, while Esposito tal- lied on a power play midway through the final frame. The Bruins, who had won two after an opening loss to New York, jumped to a 2-0 first-period lead while outshooting the Sabres 13-3. Gil Perreault, last year's rookie- of-the-year, spoiled Boston's shut- out bid with a goal on a screen shot at 9:24 of the second period. Mike Robitaille scored Buffalo's other goal in the third period. Habs halved MINNEAPOLIS-ST. PAUL-Tom Reid drilled a penalty shot goal by lanky Ken Dryden to give the 'It xpells Wilson- Rozelle contemplates action, Minnesota North Stars a 1-1 tie with the Montreal Canadiens last night in a National Hockey League game. Reid, a 203-pound defenseman who had only four previous NHL goals to his credit in five seasons, streaked across the blue line and fired a low liner past Dryden with 11 seconds left in the game. Referee Bruce Hood assessed the penalty shot after Guy Lapointe tripped Reid after the Minnesota defenseman broke a low one across the blue line. The Canadiens had taken a 1-0 lead with a goal that the North Stars immediately protested. Henri Richard, in his new role as Mon- treal captain, deflected J. C. Trem- blay's. slap shot toward goalie Gump Worsley, who appeared to sweep the puck away just at or over the goal line. The goal light wasn't turned on, but Hood quickly signaled that the puck was in. The Canadiens fired 33 shots at Worsley, while Dryden took a 40- shot barrage from Minnesota. * ,, ,' 76'ers sizzle HOUSTON - Veteran Bill Cun- ningham scored 41 points last night, leading the Philadelphia 76ers to a 105-94 National Basketball Asso- ciation victory over the scrambling Houston Rockets.

Wilson was suspended for 30 days by the Racing Commission Wednesday on charges of conceal- ing the ownership of several horses by an unlicensed person. "I can't say any action will be ,taken one way or another until I know all the facts," Rozelle said. "It's just something I've got to learn more about." Wilson said in a statement re- leased by the Bills : "The charges by the New York State Racing Commission against 4me involve nothing more than a technicality and. I strongly resent, any implication by the Commission that I knowingly participated inj anything of a . devious nature." The Racing Commission identi- fied the man whose ownership was concealed by Wilson as a Ralph: 0ibutti and said Libutti had beenI banned from all tracks under itsI jurisdiction. "The suspension orders speak for themselves," Racing Commis- - S g IitUIEuiJ~ jm~~4 sion Chairman Joseph A. Gimma said yesterday. "It would be in- appropriate for me to make any statement at this time." Besides Wilson, trainers John Camop and George Pople were sus- pended for concealing Libutti's ownership of horses. Clifford Wickman of the Thor- oughbred Racing Protection Bu- reau said Libutti had applied for a New York owners license under the name of Robert Nicholas Spadea in thesummer of 1968 and was ordered to appear before the stewards concerning some horses he owned and debts he owed. Wickman said Libutti did not appear before the stewards and on Sept. 4, 1968, the stewards ruled that he be denied entrance to the track until he appeared for a hearing. The ruling by New York ste- wards extended to tracks through- out the nation, Wickman said. 2 1 1 0 1 1 0 2 1 0 6 0 4 1 3 1 3 0 2 0 2 2 2 7 8 9 9 6 ii 3 5 3 10 8j 12 RADICAL CHIC & MAU-MAUING THE FLAK CATCHERS Wolfe 1.25 Yesterday's Results Milwaukee 110, Phoenix 97 Philadelphia 105, Houston 94 Only games scheduled Today's Games Los Angeles at Detroit Yesterday's Results Montreal 1, Minnesota 1 Boston 6, Buffalo 2 Only games scheduled Today's Games Vancouver at California Only game scheduled U_ LOSE 20 POUNDS IN TWO WEEKS !
