Three Elks errors in the seventh doomed their push, while Perreault’s late scare for Oilers, and Gagne’s 8 walks highlighted the game. Lajeunesse and Vadnais added key hits, with Maddox earning the win for Rochambeau and Libby taking the loss.

Celebrezze Faces Education Aged Care Office Challenges

Anthony Celebrezze, Cleveland mayor and Kennedy pick for secretary of welfare, inherits three core tasks: expand federal aid to education, secure medical care for the aged, and manage the vast Health, Education and Welfare Department with 70,000 employees. He signals caution by delaying positions on medical care until consulting Kennedy and Ribicoff, while Ribicoff, now a Senate candidate, advocates compromise and notes gaps between plans. The fate of Kennedy’s education aid and medical care programs hinges on congressional action and Celebrezze’s administrative leadership in 1963–64.
