Errors By Ken Boyer Open Door To Braves Aesittiod Peete Press an wie Weiter Ken Boyer would like to stop fielding like a New York Met, and Cincinnati Reds would like to start hitting like Frank Rob- inson. Boyer, the National League's best fielding third baseman while with St. Louis last year, committed three errors that contributed to Atlanta Braves' 8-4 victory over the Mets Fri- day night. The Reds, meanwhile, again failed to play their role as pre- this year the Reds have scored more than four runs in a game. They also have hit only four home runs as a team, the same number Robinson. has. "It's a good ball club,'"' man- ager Don Heffner insisted. "They're all breaking their necks to snap out of this. Our pitching has been good and so has the fielding. We've made some errors, but we just haven't been getting the tough run in." Or the easy one either. DODGERS EDGE CUBS 80m UNI run-sCOring singies vy Joi Callison and Dick Groat in the seventh put Philadelphia ahead 6-5. The Phillies added two more in the eighth on Ted Davidson's wild pitch and John Briggs' single. Sandy Koufax pitched his first complete game of the sea- son, bringing his record to 2-0 while scattering six hits and striking out 11, Jeff Torborg singled across in the sixth. It was the third start for Kou- fax who ended his marathon holdout only three weeks ago. He previously failed to go be- yond six innings. He held the Cubs hitless in the first three innings, yielded three hits and a run in the fourth and then began hum- ming like the Koufax who won 26 games and the Cy Young Award last year. 'When I got in trouble in the fourth I reached back for a lit- tle... extra and there it was," "From then on $f Abe or eciding run Braves marked the first time In other NL games, Los An- geles Dodgers edged Chicago Cubs 2-1, St. Louis Cardinals stopped Pittsburgh Pirates 7-5 and Houston Astros trimmed San Francisco Giants 2-0. In the only American League game, California Angels nipped Minnesota Twins 2- 1. Rain washed out Chicago at Kansas City and Detroit at Washington. In helping the Braves to three runs in the third inning, Boyer booted Hank Aaron's possible double play grounder, then was called for baseline in- terference on Aaron, The Braves scored another run in the fifth after Boyer fumbled Tony Cloninger's two-out grounder. The Reds were headed for SANDY KOUFAX jtheir second victory of the sea- Beason pennant favorites by dropping their sixth straight ame 9-7 to Philadelphia Phil- jes. Boyer made only 12 errors all 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 RAISED TEAM AVERAGE Their 1l-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.

Always Woman's Game! By JIM CONWAY LONDON (CP)--The idea of women playing cricket may seem to be an advanced form of female emancipation but in fact the sport was played by girls long before suffragettes began fighting for the right to vote, At one time there was even a professional women's cricket team but it disap- peared with the departure of the 19th century and times have been tough ever since. This spring, however, marks a high spot for England's cricket - playing women. A touring team from New Zea- land is coming to Britain in May to challenge the English women, the first such trip since a successful 1954 tour. Women's teams are fielded by five countries--England, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and The Netherlands-- but international tours are relatively rare because of lack of money. The Women's Cricket Asso- ciation, founded in 1926, rep- resents the 22 Engiish county associations, each with three or more member clubs. The WCA has to provide the money to pay for visits. It raises the funds by means as sweepstakes, prod- uce and clothing sales, dances, amateur theatrical needed to pay for the New Zealanders' tour and before that the WCA had just fin- ished paying the cost of a similar 1963 tour by an Aus- tralian team. LITTLE TOURING The English women started touring in 1934 when they visited Australia and New Zealand. They were able to ake further trips in 1948 "and 1957. The Australians came to Britain in 1937, 1951 and 1963. This will be New Zealand's second trip here, and the South Africans have yet to return a 1960 English visit al- though tentative plans have been made for a 1968 trip. The first recorded women's cricket match was in 1745 be- tween two teams of "maids"' from rival Surrey villages. A dazzled sports writer said the girls "bowled, batted, ran and catched as well as most men could in that game." Women's cricket was played mainly on public holi- days and religious feast days as part of village festivities. | During its most popular pe- riod, in the 1890s, the first (and last) professional team --The Original English Ladies Crickets, played demonstra- tion matches up and down the country, FREE GOLF LESSONS SUNDAYS 5.30 p.m. | CHANNEL Courtesy Firestone such | O.L.A.
