Lose Top To LA As final Week Unfolds Bay '9' Drops To 3rd; Braves In Tie Attempt By JACK HAND Associated Press Sports Writer Los Angeles has wrested the Na tional League lead from the San Francisco Giants but Milwaukee, is breathing down the Dodgers' Decks only one-half game back. Warren Giles, the 'National League president, might as well start flipping coins and drawing plans for a playoff. If this race doesn't wind up in a two-way or even three-way deadlock, he will be a lucky man. After Sunday's 8-2 Los Angeles victory that knocked the Giants irom a nrsi-piace lie imu mini place, a full game behind, both the Dodgers and Giants have five games to play, all on the road. The Giants will play day games at Chicago Tuesday and Wednes day while the Dodgers are play ing night games at St. Louis. They will switch opponents for three fi nal games next weekend. In the meantime, the Milwau kee Braves, 8-5 winners over Phil adelphia Sunday, have six to go. They can tie the idle Dodgers to night if they can acat Pittsburgh at Forbes Field behind Warren Spahn. The Braves also play night games at Pittsburgh Tuesday and Wednesday. After an off day Thurs day, they move home for a final threc-gamc-sct with the last-place Phillies. Sweep To Bums The Dodgers completed a three game sweep over the Giants in the final scries to be played at Seals Stadium. A two-game Giant lead of Satur day morning melted when the Dodgers took a day-night double header. Sunday's defeat dropped Ran Francisco out of the lead for the first time since Aug. 4. It was the first time the Dodgers had held undisputed possession since July 29. With Johnny Podrcs opposing Sam Jones, the Giants' 20-gamc winner, Duke Snider got the Dodg ers off to an early lead with his 2.1rd homer. The Dodgers chased Jones and added another run in the second, two more in the sev enth and sewed it up with four in the ninth. Larry Sherry, Sandy Koufax and finally Clem Labine followed Podrcs, who gave way during a two-run Giant rally in the eighth. Labine had the bases loaded with nobody out in the ninth but struck out pinch hitler Leon Wagner and got Eddie Brcssound to bounce into a game-ending double play. Vernon Sparks Rally It took a veteran from the Amer ican League, Mickey Vernon, to spark a Milwaukee ninth-inning rally that beat the Phillies. Tho llraves saw a 5-3 lead disappear when Carl Snwntakl hit a Iwo-run homer in the eighth. Vernon's sin gle drove in the first Brave run in the ninth and the second Rcored when Harry Anderson fumbled the ball. Bobby Avila, another ex American Leaguer, knocked in the third run off Itobin Roberts with a single. Hank Aaron's 39th homer in the first and Eddie Mathews' 41st with a man on in the third helped build up a 4 0 lead for Lew Burdcltc. Tho Braves' 21-game winner was knocked out in the sixth and Joey Jay held off the Phils until the ninth. It was Jay's sixth victory and Roberts' 16th defeat. Pittsburgh clinched fourth place when Vern Law won his 18th, a 50-1 romp over Cincinnati. Dick Stuart led the Pirates with four singles. St. Louis came from behind with an extra base barrage to whip Chicago 11-4. Hal Smith hit a two run double and his 12th homer and Stan Musial chipped in with a two-run homer, hit No. 3,200 of his career. Vinegar Bend Mizell was the winner in relief over Don Elston. i BUICK-CADILLAC -P0NTI ACS Looking For A Small Car? Be sure and tea the, VAUXHALL THE SMALL CAR THAT IS A CAR!

Joe Gordon, who has quit as manager of the Indians, is play ing out the string. General mana ger Frank Lane says he stays un til the club is eliminated mathe matically. Since he said that, the Indians have won three straight. Just suppose Cleveland wins its last five games and Chicago loses its four. Would Lane let Gordon manage in the World Series? Or would Gordon be entitled to fire Lane? Of course, that's all hypotheti cal. With a 3V4 game lead, all Chi cago has to do is win one more and they can do no worse than tie.
