Boyer Fields Like
f The New York Nets?
By MURRAY CHASE
AP Sports Writer
Ken Boyer would like to stop
fielding like a New York Met,
and the Cincinnati Reds would
like to start hitting like Frank
Robinson.
Boyer, the National League’s
best fielding third baseman
while with St. Louis last year,
committed three errors that
contributed to Atlanta’s 8-4 vic-
tory over the Mets Friday night.
The Reds, meanwhile, again
failed to play their role as pre-
Astras Get Win
Over Sr Giants
HOUSTON, Tex. (AP) —It
takes all-around good baseball
to beat , the San Francisco
Giaifcts and the Houston Astros
had it Friday night as they
dumped the Giants 2-0.
Not only did they get the
runs needed via the home run
always pays off-but they had
some brilliant fielding and a
fine pitching job by Dave
Giusti.
Joe Morgan and Jim Gentile
hit home runs to furnish the
scores.
Bob Aspromonte and Rusty
Staub turned in the fielding
gems as the former made a
falling catch of a liner to force
a runner at second and retire
full
and” Staub ufff^Wnjmi Hart
as third on a hit to left by Tom
Haller.
Guisti pitched a neat eight-
hitter.
It was Houston’s first victory
over the Giants in its last 10
attempts. It also snapped the
Giants* winning streak at five.

season pennant favorites by
dropping their sixth straight
game 9-7 to Philadelphia.
Boyer made only 12errorsall
last season but already has five
this year, all in the last three
games. Two of the miscues
came in the third inning when
the Braves erupted for three
runs and a 5-0 lead.
The Reds did some erupting
of their own for the first time
this season, but it wasn’t enough
to solve their problems.
Their 11-hit display raised the
team batting average to .241,
a level far below team mark
of .273 and even further below
Frank Robinson’s .417.
Wayland Loses
To Russians
PLAINVJJEW, Tex. (AP)—The
Russian national women’s bas-
ketball team was much too
much for the Flying Queens of
Wayland College Friday night.
Ludmila Dazarevich and Feo-
dora Orul scored 23 points be-
tween them in leading the
Russians to a one-sided 57-J20
victory.
The teams clash again tonight
at Lubbock to wind up the Rus-
sians’ tour. They have won five
out of five.

If President Johnson wants
some unsolicited advice on how
to win over the uncommitted
nations in Asia and Aflrica, he
should Just send the Boston
Celtics out on agrand tour of the
world.
Whatever happens in the meet-
ing between the Celtics and the
Lakers will be anti-climactic.
The Celtics are more than just
a fabulous sports team. They're
the epitome of what can be done
between the races and the re-
ligions. For years people have
been singling out the Celtic
stars who have been responsi-
, Me for their incrediMe vic-
tory streak of finishing first in
the Eastern Division ten conse-
cutive times and now headi%
for their eighth straight world
championship!
When Bob Cousy retired, that
was supposed to be it for the
Celtics. The same when Frank
Ramsey left, then Tommy Hein-
sohn. But the Celts kept win-
ning. Many people said the C elts
are Bill Russell and that’s as
Celtic Coach
Doesn’t Want
Season To End
Los Angeles (AP) —“I’m
hoping that the next game will
be my last as a coach. I don’t
want to finish the season in Los
Angeles,” said Boston Celtic
coach Red Auerbach.
Auerbach, who is retiring aft-
er this season, is on the thresh-
old of his eighth consecutive
National Basketball Associat-
ion championship and is eager
to win it before home fans in the
Boston Garden.
The Celtics beat the Los Ang-
geles Lakers, 122-117, Friday
night before 15,251 Laker fans
in the Sports Arena to take a
3-1 lead in their best-of-seven
series.
The playoff resumes Sunday
in Boston before the customary
capacity crowd of 13,909 Celtic
partisans.
The sixth and seventh games,
if necessary, will be in Los
Angeles next Tuesday and in
Boston Thursday, but Auerbach
isn’t interested in prolonging
the affair.
”1 know the Lakers will be
tough (Dr us in Boston,” safctthe
estssful and controversial vet-
eran coach, “because I know
they won’t quit. But we want to
wind it «*>.”
far as it goes buf it isn’t. The
Celts never pl*ed : a game
with one man; always five and
always that fantastic bench. Af-
ter all, if you want to talk about
just one man pick Wilt Cham-
berlain. Here’s the perfect ex-
ample of the tremendous super
star in sports. But ths Philly
76er’s are out of ths picture
despite Chamberlain's great ef-
forts. And what about the Cin-
cinnati Royals super star Os-
car Robertson? You just don’t
win the game with one man
alone no matter how great his
performance. Sure, in a tingle
game or more one man is the
spark quite often but not over
the hard, grinding schedule of
eighty games in basketball or
154 in baseball.
Russell, Casey Jones, Sam
Jones, John Havlicek, Satch
Sanders, Larry Siegfried, Don
Nelson, Mel Counts and “Red”
Auerbach. “Red” Auerbach la
the guiding genius, undoubtedly
the best professional coach in
the history of any sport.
No team can whip the Celtics
single-handedly. And though
Chamberlain thought that this
was his year to win, he must
be wondering just what a guy
has to do to win a champion-
ship. Wilt has not played on a
championship team since his
high school days.
And what better place for the
Celtics to win than at Pbilly’s
Convention Hall in front of the
enemy fans, who, incidentally,
were pretty put outatthe76er*a

on the floor.
