Phillies win
PHILADELPHIA Jesus Alou beat out a roller to shortstop with two out and the bases loaded in the ninth inning to tie the game and Johnny Edwards singled in two runs as the Houston Astros rallied to defeat the Philadelphia Phillies 9.7 last night.
After Richie Allen had driven in five runs with his fourth career grand slam homer and a seventh inning single to give Philadelphia a 7-3 lead, the Astros knocked out starter Rick Wise with three runs in the eighth and jumped on reliever Gary Wagner for the three decisive runs in the ninth.
Owners fail again
NEW YORK - Pro football's club owners met for eleven hours yesterday but again failed to solve the thorny problem of realignment for the National and American Football Leagues when their merger goes into effect in 1970.
The owners adjourned their meeting at 8 p.m. and decided to resume their talks at 9 a.m. today.
Williams favored
PHILADELPHIA Jerry Williams comes to Philadelphia this weekend as "top candidate" for new coach of the Philadelphia Eagles football team General Manager Pete Retzlaff said yesterday.
Williams, former Eagles player and assistant coach for six seasons and highly successful in the Canadian League, resigned Wednesday night as coach of the Calgary Stampeders.
He told a news conference in Calgary he exercised his contractural rights when he resigned after signing a new four year contract last February.
