nning E-Homer (Gives National League Victory Missel's 12fh i Milwaukeeans Have Big Day In 6-5 Clash By JOE REICHLER MILWAUKEE Ufi Stan (The Man) Musial, toast of the Nation al League lor me pasi 14 years, i thp niw darlinz of baseball-mad Milwaukee today even if he doesn't wear a Braves unuorm. The majority of the capacity ernwd of 45.314 navins customers, not to mention the countless tele vision viewers who saw we great SI Iinis Cardinal star smash a 12th-innirg home run yesterday to give the National league an up hill 6-5 victory over the American in the 22nd annual All-Star spec tacle, were convinced he's the greatest. The storybook finish was a fit ting climax to a wonderful day for Milwaukeeans, who were treat ed to perfect weather for their firift AU-Star home game in their three years in the National League. Not only did they see their heroes overcome what at one time seemed an insurmountable 5-0 deficit, but a trio of their own Braves had key roles in the thrill ing comeback Irive. it was Johnny Logan, Milwau kee shortstop, who singled in the first National League run in the seventh. It was Henry Aaron, Mil waukee right fielder, who singled in the run that made it 5-4 in the eighth and set the stage for Al Rosen's error that permitted the tvine run to cross the plate. And it was Milwaukee pitcher Gene Conley spectacular teat in striking out Al Kaline, Mickey Vernon and Al Rosen in the top of the 12th that preceded Musial's game-winning blow. There were other National League heroes too. Willie Mays of the New YorK uianis conirimitca greatly with two rally-igniting sin gles and a leaping back - to - the fence catch of a towering drive by Ted Williams that had t h e home ran label torn off it at the last instant. There was St. Louis' Harvey Haddix, who pitched a fine three innings after the American League sluggers had blasted into an early 4-0 lead at the expense of Robin Roberts, Philadelphia's great right-hander. There was Ted Klus zewski, Cincinnati's slugging first baseman, who had a double and single and contributed a fielding om on a sizzler by Yogi Berra that resulted in a rally-killing dou ble play. Last but not least was the gritty clutch pitching of young Joe Nux ihall, tide Redleg southpaw, who fanned five in 3 1-3 innings of rim less pitching after relieving Chi cago's Saim Jones. Nuxhall struck out Whitey Ford with two out and Iho bases full in the eighth. There were heroes on the losing side too, Billy Piece was brilliant in his opening three-inning stint. The little Chicago While Sox left hander faced only nine as he truck out three, did not give up a run and allowed only a lcadoff single to Red Schoendienst. Mickey Mantle struck the game's longest blow, a tremendous 425-foot home run over the center field fence into the distant trees with two men on base in the first inning. 6 The News-Review, Roieburg, Ore.
