o Yanks Trim Chisox Lead; Cleveland Defeats Boston By JACK HAND AiaocUUd PrM SporU Writer The Chicago While Sox's chances of holding first place on the tradi tional July 4th dividing line hinge on the next five gamei with New York and Boston. If Paul Richards' White Sox ran aafely skirt the Yanks and Red Sox series on the road they'll go home with a comfortable lead. How to beat the Yanks was one lesson the White Sox failed to learn from Maestro Richards. Losing seven of 10 to New York cost them a chance to pile up a safe margin. Their lead, once measur ing five games, has been whittled to 2W. Fresh out of pitchers, both the White Snx and Yanks fall back on unreliable workmen for today's fi nale of the current series at Yan kee stadium. Either Howie Judson or sore-armed Saul Rogovin will work for the Sox against Spec Shea, who was treated roughly on relief in the series opener. Richards gut a well pitched lime by Billy Pierce yesterday but ost, 2-1, when the Sox threw away countless chances. Over-ambitious base running, one of their prime assets, backfired on the fleet Sox. Eddie Lopat seemed on the verge of collapse several times but man aged to last the route for his loth victory. He allowed 10 hits to five oft Pierce. Two Big Hits Hank Bauer came up with two big hiti when they counted most while Chicago left 10 men stranded. Bauer led off the seventh with i single and scored the tying run. In the eighth his soft lnoper over Chico Carrasquel's head for a single drove home Mickey Man tle with the winning run. Cleveland, which followa Chicago into Yankee stadium, cut loose with an 18-hit attack at Boston to whomp the Red Sox, 14-8. Bobby Avila unloaded three home runs and single a total of IS bases, only two short of the league record held jointly by Ty Cobb and Lou Gehrig. While the upper crust of the league wrestled for the important positions, the aecond division small-fry did some jousting on weir own. Detroit aplit a twi-night double with the Philadelphia A i, winning t-z ana losing 5-4. The even break let the A'a out of the cellar be cause St. Louis lost to Washing ton, 51. That combination left the Brownies in exclusive control of the dungeon. Finds Secret Tommy Holmes found the secret of managing his very first day on the job. Just start Warren Spahn.

It may he unkind tn pin the rap on Mr. Baker for Sacramento's 4 3 triumph over Los Angeles last night, but he did throw the ball away in the 14th inning to let the winning run score. To make it worse, that run was the third unearned marker which beset Doyle Lade of the Angels in his losing duel with Glenn El liott. It was the second overtime con test In two nights and reminiscent of Tuesday's 18 inning affair be tween Hollywood and Portland. These teams played again last night to an identical 4 3 conclusion. Hollywood winning but In regula tion time. Tied For Third The victory, accomplished bv way of Chuck Stevens' triple in the 8 Weft 11 eighth inning, left the Stars tied with Oakland for third place. The Seattle Rainiers maintained their two game lead with a 5-0 conquest of the tail end San Fran cisco Seals. Hector Brown pitched the shutout, allowing nine hits. Oakland edged out San Diego, 5 4. with a five-run outburst in the eighth that included two San Di ego erros, a double by Iorenzo Cabrera, and a two-run single by Earl Rapp. The victim was Sam Jnnes, the PCL strikeout king. Seattle plays a double header at San Francisco tonight to make up their Tuesday postponement. The I Rainiers will pitch Marv Grissom (11-7) and newcomer Earl Johnson (00) against Al Lien (9-2) and Manny Perez (2-4).

Scoring al most at will, 'the Umpqua Chiefs swamped Elkton, 16-1. The Chiefs left no doubt from the first as to the eventual outcome of this week's mismatch. With a flurry of five hits in the opening frame, the Roseburg batters pushed across six runs. From then on it was a question of how large the acore would be. After a two-run break in the second, the Chiefs were held score less until the fifth when they racked up six more. Again in the sixth they added two for the final tally. In both the first and tilth, they batted around the lineup. The only unusual aspect of the game was the size of the statis tics. In all. the Chiefs picked up 12 hits. Les Winders cracked out a homer in the fifth, Norvall Rit chie and Jerry Cade doubled and Ken Ayers tripled. 10 add to the size of the score, the Elkton team committed a ragged eight errors. Hits Shaky Streak The Elks scored their only run when starting pitcher Jerry Cade hit a shaky streak in the second inning. The first three men at bat for Elkton in that frame collected singles. Carl Hershbereer ac counted for the team's tally by singling Louis Sczypioroski home. Aside from this slight Elkton up rising, the two Chief pitchers had no trouble in setting the Elks down. Cade settled down after the second and started piling up more strike outs. For the four innings he hurled, he struck out eight men. Mickey Coen came in in the fifth and in his three innings struck out five Dick DeBernardi had his best day at bat in two years. He re placed Hal Zurcher in the fifth and in two times at bat, singled twice, batted in one run and acored two himself. Zurcher was the only other Chief to get more than one hit. He singled twice in three times at the plate. Elkton 010 000 0 1 5 8 Roseburg 620 062 x 16 12 2 Ray Cole and Sczypioroski; Cade, Coen (5), and Ritchey. Foreign Stars In Track Meet BERKELEY OP) World rec ord holders, national champions and a galaxy of foreign stars will as sault times and distances here to morrow and Saturday in the 63rd annual American (AAU) track and field championships. Thev comprise one of the great eat 90ifrr-0atinn nf Bthletae mvr assembled for this meet. And It anoints to a dress rehearsal nf th( U.S. Olympic team for 1952 and a preview of some of the out standing foreign competitors. The meet will be run in two sec tions, juniors on Friday and sen iors on Saturday afternoon. The 3000-meter walk and the 10,000 meter run will be combined jun ior senior events, both scheduled for tomorrow. fc The senior 400-meter race Sat urday will bring .together three world record holders. They are George Rhoden, defending cham pion whose 45.8 for the distance set last year, is an international standard; Herb McKenley. 440 yard king: and Mai Whitfield, who holds Ihe fastest time for 880 yards McKer.ley set his quarter-mile time of 46 seconds in Edwards stadium here in 1948. He and Rhoden rep resent Jamaica in the Olympics. Whitfield runs for the U.S. air forces. Whitfield Is the defening 800 meter title holder and will run in th'S event also. The 1500 meter "metric mile" field also shapes up as one of the best in recent years. Off his sur prising 4:088 mile wnning time in the national collegiate A. A. championships last week, Michigan State's Warren Druetzler appears the one to beat. Druetzler is the defending 3000 meter steeplechase champion but is expected to concentrate on the l.wo. If so, he will mstch strides with such as Ohio Slates Len Truex, who has a mile 4:09.7 to his credit.

Javelin Hurler Betters Previous Best Effort EUGENE UP) The Univer sity of Oregon's great javelin hurler, Chuck Missfeldt, beat his previous best effort by more than three feet in an exhibition here Tuesday. Mi.'sfeldt's toss was 228 feet 11 inches. Last week he won the NCAA title with a throw 10 feet shorter. He and Ted Roederer of Penn State, the latter stopping off here en route to the AAU meet at Berkeley, gave the exhibition. Rnederer's best exhibition toss was 217 feet 9 inrhs.
