the man of the moment for the
second time in as many games
yesterday when he drove home the
winning run as the Boston Red
Sox whipped the Chicago White

Piersall's game-winning hit, a

INGLEWOOD, Calif.-- Swaps,
who has broken three world rec-
ords and tied another this year,
will face six challengers in the
$100,000 Hollywood Gold Cup Han-'
dicap today.
Swaps now holds world marks
for a mile, a mile and 70 yards,
a mile and one-sixteenth and is
co-holder at a mile and one-
eighth.
The Gold Cup with its guar-
anteed $100,000 net to the winner,
is his first run at a mile and one-
quarter this year, a classic dis-
tance where the record is 1:531vs.

Nashua at Monmouth
OCEANPORT, N.J.-Millionaire
Nashua and eight others were en-
tered for the $100,000-added Mon-
mouth Park Handicap today and
it should be like taking candy away
from babies for the colorful syndi-
cate galloper.
The world's richest horse has
top weight of 129 for the mile and
one-quarter spin, He must con-
cede chunks of weight to all of
his opponents. But if "Mr. Mil-
lions" runs like he did while win-
ning the Suburban Handicap July
4 it should be a gilt-edged joyride
for Sunny Jim Fitzsimmons, Ed-
die Arcaro, and company.,

cathlon record, piled up another
world record total of 4,639 points

the AAU National Decathlon
which will determine the three
U.S. Olympic decathlon contend-
ers.
In spite of humid air and an oc-
casional sprinkle, Johnson closed
the first session of the two-day
meet with a 400-meter dash in
47.9 seconds butonly tied Notre
Dame halfback Aubrey Lewis for
the best time ever made at the
distance in decathlon competition.
The old record was 48.3 made in
1953.
The 6' 2%" Johnson, a 200-
pound wedge of muscles, had a
98-point bulge over his first-half
total in his 7,983 world record de-
cathlon of last year.
He won the 100-meter dash Fri-
day in 10.6 seconds, good for 1,080
points, and the broad jump at 23'-
21", good for 808 points. He
turned in the best shot put of his
career at 49' 8%" for 894 points,
but Sam Adams, former Univer-
sjity of California track captain,
won the event at 53' ".
Johnson got 1,025 points for
his 400-meter run and 832 for
going 6' 1" in the high jump.

Wertz-Skowron Collision

California Governor Pomises To Suppor
Any Moves to Dissolve Coast Conference

NEW YORK OP)-Did the 195-'
pound Bill Skowron throw a foot-
ball block at Cleveland's Vic
Wertz in their now celebrated first
base collision Thursday at Yankee
Stadium?
It was an "illegal contact," said
Hal Lebovitz, baseball writer of
the Cleveland News. "In football
it would have been a 15-yard pen-
alty."
"Just an accident," said Skow-
ron, the Yankees' muscled first
baseman, a former gridder at Pur-
due University. "I was running
clearly within the base path-I
never touched the grass."
"Skowron was running inside
the line a bit, but we're notmad
at anybody-we've got no gripes."
added Manager Al Lopez of the
Indians.
"I can't say whether Bill was off
the line or not, but I know he does
run inside a lot," said Wertz, the
pained victim, a good-sized man
himself at six feet and 186 pounds.
"But II won't say he did it pur-
posely."
The play occured in the fifth

inning of the New York-Cleveland
game at the stadium, won by the
Yankees, 9-3.
Skowron stayed in the game, his
right leg in pain but not seriously
hurt. Wertz went out with a
bruised left hip and a groin in'-
jury.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. A--Gov.
Goodwin J. Knight said yesterday
he would lend his "hearty support"
to any ove to dissolve the Pa-
cific Coatt Conference and set up
an athletic league for California
universities.
But the governor, voicing indig-
nation at recent PCC fine sand
player suspension levied on UCLA,
California, USC and Washington,
said he himself had- no power to
form such a statewide conference.
Knight Gets Support
In Los Angeles, Gov. Knight got
support in a measure from Chan-
cellor Raymond B. Allen of UCLA.
Said Allen:
"Apparently many people are of
the same mind as Gov. Knight re-
garding the formation of a new
athletic conference of the four ma-
jor California universities.
"It seems to me that unless the
PCC presidents can quickly staba-
lize the athletic situation in such
a manner as to re-establish pub-
lie confidence, the governor's sug-
gestion may well become U real-

from the conference. I see noth-
ing wrong with the conference the
way it is . . ."
"Knight, one-time rugby foot-
baller at Stanford, told newsmen
the major fault with the PCC lies
with the rule prohibiting a Rose
Bowl pact if the Big Ten insists
on the "medieval" no-repeat
clause.
Unrealistic Ceiling
And he noted the $75-a-month
aid to athletes ceiling imposed by
the PCC was unrealistic to many
people. The $75 top, he said, mere-
ly invited violations.
The governor chastized confer-
ence leaders for levying the fines
and suspensions on practically a

two-at-a-time basis. "Pretty soon,"
he said, "everybody was blowing
the whistle on everyone else."
Four Schools Charged
UCLA, California, USC a n d
Washington have been charged
by the conference faculty repre-
sentatives with paying more than
the $75 monthly stipend to grid-
ders.
The. governor first started the
PCC disbanding talk in a letter to
Ned Cronin, Los Angeles Times
sports writer.
He suggested in the letter that
UCLA, California, Stanford and
Southern California join up in an
all-California league.
