in the sixth. When Baltimore
threatened to pull even in the
top of the sixth, Yastrzemski
leaped high against the left
field wall to pull down Jim

Cleveland Indians scout today by coming to the United
States in 16-foot boat.
The lefthander, Enrique Hernandez conferred with
scout Julio de ARGOS after hazardous 17hour trip from

In recent speech, Raul Castro, Fidels brother
praised Enrique the Nations best player and said he
worth 100000 annually. But last week the govern

Hernandez said the change came because he had

Things were dead for a while,
but they're coming back now.
We are hoping to get the win

"Mosconi is far and away the
greatest pool player in the
world, but he has about given
up competitive play. I under
stand he is willing to give up
his title if a recognized tour
nament is held to play for it."
The short. fidgety Lauri, who
lives in Seaford, Long Island,

American tradition-he sneaked
down to the corner pool hall in
Brooklyn when he was supposed
to be home practicing the
violin.
Soon he had a pool room of

The Pills hit total against
five pitchers was their highest

Tony Gonzalez dubbed an
opposite-field three-run homer,
his Goth, to cap a five-run

his average was almost one
strikeout for every three times
at bat. Since joining the Sen
ators in June, it has been even
higher. Through Friday nights
game Lock had struck out 81
times in 70 at bats.
What kept. the Yankees in

But he cocks his bat with his

know he has great difficulty in
hitting a breaking pitch.
The D. C. Stadium fans who
have started to boo the big
fellow on his strikeouts have
that prerogative when they
buy their tickets. But if they
knew him. and realized how
much he is trying to improve,
they might give him another
chance.

said. "They might bother my

Lock has had tutors by the
dozen. He has had his feet
tied together with rope to keep
him from striding, and has
had his hips tied to the batting

Signs Of Life Stir
In Pool Halls Across U.S..
NEW YORK, AUG. II ZAP

NEW YORK, Aug. II (AP).-
Across the land signs of life are
stirring once again in the poo
hall, in which earlier genera
tons of Americans misspent
some of the happiest days OF
their lives.
A new group of Americans,
which has grown up without
any contact with the smoke
clicking balls, hustlers and the
unheeded warnings of harassed
mothers predicting dire ends, is
suddenly confronted with the
old temptation.
Despite the efforts of a no
hit pitcher and semi-reformed
pool shark, Bo Belinsky, an in
stitution as American as Horatio
Alger has been dying up to now
Along with it, the champions OF
a nce-flourishing sport have
been in semi-retirement.
In three-cushion billiards,
where the late Willie Hoppe
held sway so long, heretofore
there had not been a recognized
tournament since 1854. The
great Willie Mosconi had not
defended his pocket-billiards
(pooD title since 1855.
Rebirth Of Interest
Then along came a movie
about a pool hustler-"The
Hustler"
Suddenly pool balls have be-
gun clicking again all over the
land, and the champions have
busted off their trusty cues,
organized league play and are
casting looks over their should
ers, hoping to see a television
cameraman.
A summer league is currently
operating in New York, with 1C
of the finest pocket-billiards
artists in the game today.
It is one example of the re-
birth of pool interest. Another
is the revival of public play.

If you're a normal kind

East steps up with the ace

Eventually lose a club trick and

All because you hadn't

Beware the Ruff
Did you notice that 10-of-
hearts fall from the East hand
on the first trick? Even If you
didn't, the danger Of a heart
ruff should occur to you.
How will East get the lead
to his partner for the heart
ruff? Clearly, by way Of a dia-
monG. Your defense against
this is to lead the diamond be-
fore East is ready to ruff. You
set up communications before
the opponents have anything
useful to say or do.
If you lead a diamond at the
third trick East will win and
return a club. You try the fl
nesse, losing to the king. And
that takes out Vests last en-
try, and there is still a heart
in the East hnad.
The opponents will get their
diamond and their club and
the ace of trumps, but East
will not get his ruff.

My children are becoming
extremely nervous and cry a
lot. Please help me. Should
I see my physician or a
psychiatrist? And is there a
cause or a cure?-Mrs. r.
MY GUESS is that you are
suffering from premenstrual

receive and what 7 have OBJ
served in practice, I can
safely guess there are thou
sands upon thousands Of
women who have similar
complaints.
