Page Twelve THE SUMMER DAILY Wednesday. Mav 16. 1973 RyCa1 hurls no-hit gem Royals put three I On base From Wire Service Reports KANSAS CITY-Nolan Ryan, the fireball hurler that the New York Mets had given up for mediocre, threw a no-hitter last night against the Kansas City Royals as the California Angels triumphed 3-0. Ryan, who whiffed 12 Royal batsmen en route to his fifth victory of the year, walked three Kansas City men in hurl- ing his gem. The game was in marked contrast to Ryan's last tarn daring which the Chicago White Sax dispatched him to the showers in the very first inning. B-seball's -i-"h hitter is Ois- secte-1 and b-sketbll's "S'tch" Sanders is noted on page 11. IN THE THIRD inning, the Royals said they were nlaying the game under protest. Kansas City M-nag'r Jack McKeon con- tended Ryan was not keening his right foot on the nitchingrubber as he made his delivery. The Rovals never serio'isly threatened to break tn the no- hitter until the eighth inning -when G-il Honkies, ninch-hitting for ctcher Carl Taylor, punched the ball into short center field. But Rudy Meoli raced out from his short ston position and caught the' ball easily. THE NINTH WAS a relatively simple frame for the right-hand- er as he retired Fred Patek on a foul to first, Steve Hovely swinging on a three-two count and Amos Otis on a deep fly to center. Ryan never hnd a chance for the coveted perfect game as he issued a free pass to Hovely in the first stanza of the game. In all the Royal hit -ten balls to the outfield, not incliding Hop- kins' soft liner, with the longest beipg the drive by Otis that end- ed the game. RYAN HAD FLIRTED with the classic no-hit performance numerous times by pitching a pair of one-hitters and four two hitters in his seven year m'jor league career.

BRONCOS FALL: Sports of The Daily W olverines sweep I g 14 a-n a nIf Sey Hey says goodbye NEW YORK-Willie Mays, baseball's aging superstar, indi- cated yesterday that this year is his last of active service. Mays did not, however, say when the retirement would become final. Willie, who is on the 15 day disabled list, said that he will wait until he comes off the list and tries again before making any decision. Dope note SAN DIEGO-Although he can direct his athletes to warn youngsters about the evils of drugs, Football Commissioner Pete Rozelle is apparently unable to police his own domain, according to testimony given in the Hotiston Ridge case revealed in the San Diego Union yesterday.. In his testimony, Rozelle gave a series of reasons for not ordering an investigation into player drug use: -Giving examinations to players would "possibly constitute an invasion of privacy" and might hamper the relationship be- tween players and the team doctor." --"The problem of enforcing rules for 26 different clubs spread all over the U.S., in this very unique area, we found to be impractical." -"You have varying medical opinions today and in the past on the use of various drugs." -Auditing club drug records "would be a tremendous burden," This is the same man who ordered a famed quarterback to sell his nightclub because the club was frequented by disreput- able types. Potvin pulled MONTREAL-Dennis Potvin, a 6-1 190 pound defenseman, was the first choice in the annual National Hockey League amateur draft. Potvin was tabbed by the Philadelphia 76'ers of hockey, the New York Islanders. Needless to say, power packed Montreal stole the show with 12 of the first 20 picks. On tab .. . There's little except the Tiger-Boston game at Briggs Stadium.

Pete Helt pitched his third of the season in the first half of the double dip limiting the Broncos to just five base runners and easily won 2-0. And Pete Ross, the Wolverines' Sparky Lyle, was giving it a go in the second game, leading four to zip. BUT NO ONE counted on what happened in the wild fifth inning. The Broncos had men on first and second with one away and first sacker Tom Vanderberg stepping to the plate. Vander- berg, swinging from the left side of the plate, took Ross' first pitch and sent down the foul line deep to right. Right fielder Mike DeCou went over to the line, but stopped when he saw that the ball was going to carry out of Ray Fischer Field foul. Everybody else thought that it did. Vanderberg had slowed up and the .two Bronc runners did likewise. Everyone thought it had gone over the green fence six feet to the right of the line, but umpire Herb Nordquist._ Nord- quist wavedrthe runners around to the delight of the Kalamazoo partisans and the chagrin of the Broncos busted 1st Game WMU 000 008 0--0 2 0 MICH. 001 001 x-2 5 1 Bock and Parpet; Belt and Lon- char.

Rogers got a boost from Nordquist, who branded what seemed to be a low inside 3-1 delivery a "streeeke."
