Wise, an ardent fan and former sandlotter, reluctantly blew the final whistle Thursday on Austin High School's 1965 football season. He upheld the school's suspension by the Catholic High School Athletic League, after the judge had failed in an attempt to mediate the dispute. He had suggested a less severe penalty.

The league canceled Austin's 1965 schedule when it caught 20 players and three coaches participating in illegal practice on Aug. 19 at Sarnia, Ont. The parents of four Austin players challenged the league's back to take the second half of a doubleheader, 5-2 when a wild-pitch, third strjke allowed It 1 klf the winning run to score in the ninth inning.

Chris Short fired a seven-hitter to beat Marichal. who was tagged with his 10th loss against 19 wins. The second game was tied, the schedule would eliminate the chances of the team's more talented players from receiving collegiate football scholarships. Catholic Le ague director Ralph Owen testified that he saw the players and former Coach Mike Rhodes who was fired after the disclosure doing calesthenics and throwing foot 2-2, going into the ninth when Ken Henderson opened against the collapse of the Giants last year.

BOB ALLISON never will BY JOE FALLS Fre Press Sports Writer MINNEAPOLIS The Timers wound up their two-week trip Thursday night and found themselves a slugger.

His name: Don Wert. The little, sleepy-eyed guy, who looks like he should be in the house before dark, was promoted to the No. 3 spot in the batting order and led the Tigers to a 5-4 victory over the Minnesota Twins. Wert cracked a two run smgle and a two-run homer as the Tigers earned a split of the series and cut Minne balls at the Sarnia field. Michigan High School Athletic Association rules define practice as any supervised gathering of players in which equipment is used.

Legal practice for Lower Peninsula high school teams began last Monday. Rhodes admitted on the stand forget this one. The Twin outfielder struck out five straight times to tie the major league record for frustration. Only one of Minnesota's runs was earned Don Mincher's homer starting the ninth. The others were strictly gifts from the Tigers, who weren't very elegant themselves in making four errors.

As it turned out, the Tigers scored what proved 1o be the winning run in the ninth inning when George Thomas got his fourth hit a looping double to left and came, around on a wild pitch and 'orm Cash's sacrifice fly. Joe Sparma, who worked an erratic seven innings, was the winner. He was fiery fast, I striking out nine batters, but also was wild and walked eight. Jumbo Joe now has a 12-6 record, tying Denny McLain and Hank Agxiirre for the 1 most wins on the club. Al Kaline made his first ap-1 pearance since Aug.

19 and BV GEORGE PUSCAS Darrell Dess, newest of the Lions, came striding into the Cranbrook camp Thursday, and he said all the proper things. "It's a nice place, I'm glad to be here," he said. Chances are, Earl Morrall was saying the same thing back east, having switched places with Dess as part of the big deal between the Lions and New York Giants last Monday. Dess is a tough-looking one. He's a.

short-type fi-footer, low and wide, with a neck as round as a cannon and a chest that can take a good shot. AI.DO FORTE, the Lions' offensive line coach, had him in tow, brainwashing the Giants' play system out of his head and hastily planting the Lions' scheme of football. "Really, it's not much different," said Dess, an eight-year guard veteran who rose to All-Pro stature in 1963, before ogy that's different with various teams." Head coach Harry Gilmer always said that was so there's nothing really new In football, just different ways of doing things. In short order Dess will get his trial at offensive guard. He probably will be used briefly Sunday night in Cleveland against his old mates, the Giants.

THE IJONS and Giants meet in the opener of a double-header which will pull some wi.nno into Cleveland's Municipal Stadium. Morrall now seems likely to get some fast work from the Giants. New York's quarter-backing situation is so desperate tha thead coach Allie Sherman would lose nothing by employing even an unfamiliar Morrall in his offense. Michigan's Bob Timberlake is one of the Giants' new quarterbacks, but, Dess reveals, the Giants seem to have Turn to Tae 3D, Column 4 that the youngsters had, in addition to conditioning exei- cises, practiced ball-handling. "THE COFRT finds," Judge Wise ruled, "that as a matter of fact, it was football practice bunted, but both runners were safe when Allen threw wild.

Dick Schofield sacrificed the runners along. Then Matty Aloti, batting for Tito Fuentes, swing and missed at a third strike, and the pitch was wild, enabling Henderson to score from third and Alou to reach first. In the first game Jim Hart staked Marichal to a 2-0 lead with a two-run homer in the first inning, but Bobby Wine tied the score in the second with a two-run shot after two were out. Corrales followed the homer with a double and came around on Short's single. Short earned his 15th victory in 24 decisions.

The Tigers, by winning, moved back into fourth place. They finished their trip with a four -game series against a 7-8 record and will open the Washington Senators Friday night in Tiger Stadium. The Minnesota loser was rookie Jim Merritt. Wert tagged him for a two-run single in the third, then hit his two-run homer in the fifth. Two errors by Ray Oyler and another by Sparma gave Minnesota its first three runs.

Tony Oliva tried to steal another with a theft of home, but Sparma gunned him out. NOTES: The Tigers recalled Phil Regan from Syracuse, where he had a 9-4 record. He'll probably start one game of Sunday's doubleheader against Washington. Denny McLain was released from the hospital following his virus and flew home with the Tigers. The Tigers will play eight games at home with Labor Day's single game against Boston starting at 3 p.m.

Even if the swinger is a weak-hitting pitcher.

But now that catcher John Roseboro of the Dodgers is suing pitcher Juan Marichal of the Giants for a cool $110,000 in the wake of Marichal's untoward antics the other day, it is time to define terms. The official charge is assault and battery. In view of Roseboro's playing position as a catcher, couldn't you grin and say that it should be changed to "assault on half a battery The suit itself, regardless of terms, could turn out to be one of the more vital ones in sports. What Roseboro is claiming is that when one athlete turns on another athlete and assaults him in a manner to cause bodily harm, it is time for legal action. The fact that Marichal's action brought an immediate penalty from league president Warren Giles in the form of suspension and a fine proves that baseball itself obviously frowns on such things.

Put 'em together and you come up with an intriguing situation. The sport involved ha? called Marichal guilty. If it gets to court, a judge and jury will weigh the same evidence and make a decision. Miide Post for Future LET'S ASSUME THAT THE 12 men tried and true agree that Marichal did indeed go overboard when he intentionally confused the Dodger catcher with the only thing at which players are supposed to swing namely a baseball. They then would rule that the offender cough up enough money to satisfy the man he bopped in what they construe to be action that is definitely over and above the regular call of athletic duty.

Such a situation never cropped up before. Any court decision would set a precedent; establish a guide post for future incidents. So let's take a football game. A lineman reaches over in the heat of battle and pops an enemy tackle in the chops. Separates the guy from a mouthful of teeth, cuts his lips and otherwsie causes both mental and physical anguish.

An official sees the first guy swing. He calls a personal foul, assesses a 15-yard penalty and maybe even kicks the offender out the game. What is to prevent the other player from grabbing an attorney and rushing into court? True, the first player didn't emulate Marichal and clobber the other one with a slab of ash weighing almost three pounds. But he did use what is termed in football as "a weapon" namely a fist in a manner that definitely was termed "illegal" by a league official. What if an official blows the whistle on a pass defender and claims he illegally climbed all over an intended pass receiver? A penalty ensues.

The team which takes it, goes on in and scores what turns out to be the winning touchdown in a vital game. What Should Court Do? GAMES MOVIES PROVE THAT the "offending" player did not interfere with the catch.
