Scoreboard

P:In Caracas, Venezuela, Russian marksmen won nine team championships, piled up 78 points to take first place in the international shooting championships. Second: Sweden, with 57 points.

P:In Tokyo, Pascual Perez, a bull-necked little (107 3/4 Ibs.) battler from Argentina, swarmed all over Japan's Yoshio Shirai for 15 rounds and won the world's flyweight championship.

P:In New York, Frank Dudley Lawrence, owner of the Portsmouth (Va.) Merri-macs. filed a $250,000 damage suit in Federal Court against Baseball Commissioner Ford Frick and 16 major-league teams for violating baseball's territorial protection rule. Although the rule makes no mention of TV, Lawrence insists that televising big-league games in minor-league cities is just as bad as the forbidden practice of bringing the games themselves to town: many minor-league clubs (including the Merrimacs) are going broke because their fans prefer big-league telecasts.
