Indians drop

By SCOTT M. LEWIS
Special to the Daily
CLEVELAND- The Detroit Tigers'
pennant drive continued in reverse
gear last night, their losing streak
reaching five games after an 8-4 defeat
to Cleveland. The loss, in which starter
Dan Schatzeder (6-8) and a pair of
relievers were tagged for 11 hits,
knocked the Tigers out of first place as
a result of the Milwaukee Brewers 5-1
victory over the Baltimore Orioles.
Reeling from their four-game fiasco
in .Boston, the Tigers (22-16 in the
second half of the season) hoped to
recoup their losses at the expense of the
Indians. Prior to last night's meeting,
Detroit had won 13 of its last 16 games
against a team which annually finishes
at, or near, the bottom of the American
League East.
IN REVERSING the two-year trend,
Cleveland (18-20) snapped its own five-
game losing skien.
Cleveland manager Dave Garcia,
who accused counterpart Sparky An-
derson of "showing us up" last weekend
in Detroit (the Tigers swept the three-
game series), was beaming with
satisfaction. One gets the feeling that
Garcia would like nothing more than to
watch his Indians seriously damage the
Tigers' title chances.
Schatzeder, who turned in six innings
of one-hit relief pitching against

Cleveland last Friday, was
being in top form. The left-han

was nailed for two runs in th
inning on a Bo Diaz home run.

NEW YORK (AP)- Muhammad Ali,
in one of his vintage performances, said
he would win the heavyweight title a
record fourth time, after it was an-
nounced yesterday -that he would fight
Trevor Berbick in a 12-round bout 'in
early December at Nassau, Bahamas.
"I've never been seriously hurt, not
even in the Holmes fight," said Ali, who
kept referring to himself as 40 years'
old. He won't be 40 until Jan. 17, 1982.
ALI SAID LIE had been offered
comeback fights now against other op-
ponents, but chose Berbick, a native of
I Jamaica, who is the Canadian and
British Commonwealth champion,
because "I wanted to meet, the
toughest. I didn't want no creampuff."
-- "I need one big one, then they can line
me up for the real big one (the'title
fight) against whoever that will be,"
continued Ali, the self-proclaimed
"Greatest."
No exact date was set for the fight,
which is being billed as the "Drama in
Bahama," but the three-time champion
indicated it would be Dec. 2, a Wed-
nesday. Nor was it disclpsed what each
fighter would be paid, but Ali said, "My
lawyers and managers told me it would
d bejn the millions."
 Women reporters excluded
BALTIMORE (AP)- The Baltimore
Colts have voted to bar women repor-
ters from their dressing room but that
may not be the end of the issue.
A female reporter representing the
Baltimore News American was denied
access to the NationalFootball League
team's locker room last Sunday
following the Colts' loss to the Buffalo
Bills.
0 Colts General Manager Dick
Szymanski has said the Colts closed the
locker room to women because "the
players and the players' wives objected
to the inclusion of women in the locker
room."
