EAST GERMANY'S LUTZ DOMBROWSKI sails gracefully through the air on
his way to a gold medal-winning jump of 28-,% at the Moscow Olympics yes-
terday. Dombrowski became only the second man ever to broad jump more
than 28 feet. The first? Bob Beamon of the United States, who did it in Mexico
City in 1968.

Special to The Daily
DETROIT - A pair of unearned
California runs in the top half of the
seventh inning proved to be the winning
markers as the Angels downed Detroit,
3-2, last night at Tiger Stadium.
Tiger starter Dan Petry was the vic-
tim of the Angel uprising, absorbing his
sixth loss against five wins on the
season. California reliever John Mon-
tague picked up the win, raising his
mark to 3-2.
Petry pitched a strong game,
allowing just one run over the first six
innings, but he ran into trouble in the
seventh. With one out, a walk to Bobby
Grich and a single by Larry Harlow put
runners on first and third.
After Bert Campaneris lofted a fly
ballto right field, and Tiger outfielder
Al Cowens made a perfect throw to the
plate, holding Grich, it appeared that
Petry might get out of the inning. But
Joe Rudi, pinch hitting for Dan Whit-
mer, bounced a weak grounder to third.
Third baseman Tom Brookens made
the pickup, but his throw drew Richie
Hebner off the bag, allowing Rudi to
reach first base, and the tying run to
score.
The Angels' Rick Miller followed with

a single to center field, scoring Harlow
with what turned out to be the game's
winning run.

dy Hassler for the final two innings to.
preserve the win.
Dave LaRoche started the game for
California, and allowed the only Tiger
runs. The Bengals were only able to get
to Angel pitching with single runs in the
first and fifth innings.
With two out in the first, Steve Kemp
walked and John Wockenfuss' single
moved him to second. Lance Parrish's
base hit to right knocked in Kemp with
the first run of the game.
The Tigers pushed across another run
in the fifth when back-to-back singles
by Hebuer and Brookens put runners on
first and second out with nobody out. A
successful sacrifice hunt by Stan Papi
moved the runners up one base, and
Dave Stegman's sacrifice fly scored
Hebner with Detroit's second run. Alan
Trammell's ground out to shortstop'
stranded Brookens at second, however.
The Angels threatened several times
against Petry in the early innings, but
were only able to push across one run
against the Tiger righthander.
Tiger double plays in the second,
third, and fourth innings killed off
California rallies, but in the next
frame the Angels finally pushed home a
run.
A crowd of 25,804 witnessed the
opener of the four-game series. The loss
was Detroit's third in its last five games
on their current 13-game home stand.
The Tigers now sport a record of 49-40,
and occupy third place in the American
League East.

MOSCOW (AP)-Western nations
posted only their second medals sweep
of a major event at these Eastern bloc
dominated Olympic Games yesterday
as Italy's Pietro Mennea, a reluctant
participant, edged Allan Wells of
Britain in the 200-meter dash.
Donald Quarrie of Jamaica took the
bronze as five runners from communist
nations trailed.
MEANWHILE, Lutz Dombrowski of
East Germany posted the second best
long jump in history-but said he never
hopes to beat the record of American
Bob Beamon.
Olympic
Roundup
Dombrowski became only the second
jumper to clear 28 feet with a leap of 28
feet, 14 inch to easily give him the gold
medal by more than a foot over his
teammate, Frank Paschek.
Boxing
Luis Pizarro of Puerto Rico won a
unanimous decision in the Olympic
boxing tournament yesterday, and
Cuba and the Soviet Union each
qualified the ninth and 10th members of
their 11-member boxing team for the
Olympic quarterfinals.
Puerto Rico's highest hope for a
medal here, 112-pounder Alberto
Mercado, was eliminated in his first
fight when he was butted and cut onthe
right eyelid. Molina was to have fought
Soviet Serik Konakbaev tonight.
THE 17-YEAR-OLD Pizarro's win
over Fitzroy Brown of Guyana in a 125-
pound bout was soured by the news that
his teammate Luis Molina would not be
able to compete in the 139-pound
quarterfinals because of a hand injury. -

Quarterfinal action opens with 12
fights this afternoon including Teofilo
Stevenson's second bout of the
tournament. The Cuban heavyweight
who is seeking to win a third Olympic
gold medal will fight Grzegorz Skarzecz
of Poland.
A Nepalese light welterweight
answering the first-round buzzer at the
Olympic boxing tournament tip-toed
out of his corner with gloves raised and
knees quaking.
The 139-pounder never landed a
punch in his first and only Olympic
bout. He ws so intimidated by a
glowering North Korean opponent that
he had his face behind his gloves, bent
into a crouch and docilely waited to be
massacred.
The referee stopped the bout at the
two-minute mark, permittifig the
Nepalese to escape the ring with
nothing damaged but his pride.
Diving
Falk Hoffman of East Germany, one
of the focal points in a controversy that
marred the springboard diving
competition last week, came back
yesterday to win the men's platform
diving at the Olympic Games.

Turner hit
for taking
foreigner
aboard
NEWPORT, R.I. (AP)-Skip-
per Ted Turner was expelled
from America's Cup observation
trials yesterday because he
allowed the tactician and
designer of the vessel Australia,
a potential foreign challenger, to
sail aboard his boat Courageous,
the New York Yacht Club said.
The decision will force the
millionaire Atlanta sailor and his
crew to sit- out a scheduled race
today against Russell Long's
Clipper but will not affect his
competing in the final trials
starting here Aug. 19, the
committee said.
The observation trials end
tomorrow.
"AT A HEARING before the
committee, Mr. Turner was
advised that the committee
viewed what had occurred as a
serious indiscretion," a prepared
statement from the New York
Yacht Club said.
Turner left the docks without
comment, and his passenger,
Australian sail expert Ben
Lexcen, was not available.
