Alter a dismal start Pitt’s track team has begun to show
a little life and Panther Coach Carl Reese is breathing easier.
The Panthers, who finally beat West Virginia last week,
81-50, after dropping their first
feated Penn State team at 12
"Final exams hurl us," Reese
said yesterday. "They came be
tween the second and third
meet and with the bad weather
it made it rough for us."

"After I read the result* of
the Navy meet it didn't seem
like we should be on the same
track with Penn Slate," Reese
gaid. "But looking at the results
Of the Penn Relays and your tri

look a little more encouraging."

as they were against Navy but the
track was soggy and the weather
humid.)
Reese said that vveightman Dan
Kanell is Pitt’s only outstanding
performer. “Our only sure winner;
is Kanell,” he said.
"Next to Kanell, Bob Shana
felt is our most reliable point
getter. He won both the 100 and
220 against West Virginia and
he won indoors against Navy
and Harvard.
Pitt’s big weakness appears to
be the distance events. Against
jWest Virginia, Panther Bob Tak
rany won both the mile and the
two mile but his times were slow.
He was clocked in 4:28.1 in the
mile and 10:05 in the two mile.
Penn State has three men who
have bettered 4:15 in the mile so
far this season and Gerry Norman
was clocked in 9:13.8 in the two
mile last week.
Pitt may also be in for some
trouble in the hurdles. Sopho
more Bob Grantham's limes
haven't been exceptionally fast
but he's improving each week.
He finished second in the 120
highs and then scored an upset by
capturing first place in the 220
lows against Navy’s highly rated
j hurdlers. Then last week he swept
events against Michigan
State and Ohio State.

Gives Senators Win
DETROIT (/P)—Billy Klaus,
an .095 hitter, smashed a grand
slam home run that sparked
the Washington Senators’ big
gest offensive show of the sea
son yesterday in a 9-4 victory
over the first-place Detroit Tige/s.
Gene Woodling and Dale Long
also hit homers for the Senators,
,who climbed out of last place by
splitting a four-game series with
the American League pacesetters.
The nine-run output was two
belter than the Senators had
done in 25 previous games.
The Tigers gave reliever Bill
Fischer his first start of the sea
son and the sinker ball specialist
was in command for four innings.
But the Senators loaded the bases
on two singles and a walk with
one out in the fifth.
Then Klaus smashed the second
: grand slam of his career.

sixth, the Baltimore lefty got

4-2.
The Orioles pushed over their
winning margin in a three-hit,
Ifive-run splurge against Camilo
Pascual, Twins’ starter, and Ted
Sadowski, in the fifth inning..
Minnesota chipped away at the
Orioles' lead in the late innings,
but reliever Hoyt Wilhelm shut
the gate with one run to spare.
