Reds Keep Slight ML Edge By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS There was nothing wrong with the Cincinnati Reds that a trip to Milwaukee wouldn't cure. The only trouble is, the Reds are fresh out of trips to Milwaukee. In their final game of the season at County Stadium, where they won nine of 11 starts, the Reds jolted a game loose from the Braves in the ninth inning. Vada Pinson, breaking from third base with the bases loaded, knocked the ball out of catcher Sammy White's glove Thursday for a 2-1 victory. Dodgers Win As a result of that triumph, Cin cinnati still holds a one-game edge on the Los Angeles Dodgers who thumped Philadelphia 11-6 with an 18-hit attack. San Francisco's Juan Marichal blanked Pittsburgh on five hits 2 0, the 10th shutout for the de fending National League champi ons. Chicago knocked off St. Louis again 3-2, using the same combin ation that won the day before, pinch hitter Bob Will and relief pitcher Barney Schultz. In the American League, the New York Yankees strengthened their lead over idle Detroit to one full game by stopping a ninth-inning Chicago rally for a 4-3 vic tory. Baltimore scored six in the seventh and beat Boston 8-5, Min nesota trimmed Washington 5-2 on Don Lee's four-hitter and Kansas City shaded Cleveland 2-1 on Bobby Del Greco's homer. Reds Hold Edge The season series between the Reds and Braves now stands 14-7 in favor of Cincinnati with only one game to go. That will be play ed Sept. 13 at Cincinnati where the Reds and Braves are 5-5 for the year. The speedy Pinson was the dif ference in Thursday's game.

Maris And Mantle Concede Ruth Record Within Sight NEW YORK (AP) Both Roger Maris and Mickey Mantle concede they have a chance of bettering Babe Ruth's home run record of 60. Each thinks the other is in a better position to do it this year. But Maris has to beat the in jury jinx first. He had to pull out of Thursday night's game with the Chicago White Sox after lacing a single and double in his two trips to the plate. He aggravated a pulled muscle in his left leg when he slid into second with his run-scoring double in the third inning. The Yanks scored twice in the third to clinch their 4-2 win. Play Possible "f think I'll he able to play against Baltimore tonight," he said. Mantle didn't get a homer, ei ther, so Maris still leads in the homer derby with 40 to Mantle's 39. Maris is 22 games ahead of Ruth's record pace. Mantle is 20 games ahead of the Babe. "The important thing for me is to stay healthy," said Maris. "I think this leg will be okay. In the past few years I was out with rib injuries twice and then had an appendicitis operation just when 1 was going good." Why docs Roger think Mickey has a better chance at the record? "For one think, Mickey is a switch-hitter," said Maris, a left- handed batter. "There are certain left-handed pitchers who give me Manager Walter Alston had to use plenty of trouble.

The most I hit before was 39 last year, More Walks Expected "Roger is ahead of me so you have to give him the edge right now, said Mantle. "As the sea son goes on, I feel they are going to walk me a lot more. I d have better crack at the record if Maris batted behind me instead of the other way around. This way Rog doesn I get many walks. Maris hats third and Mantle fourth in the Yankee lineup. "1 have to give Rog some of the credit for making me work harder," said Mantle who is 29 and three years older than Maris He added: "You'd have to cal both our chances of breaking Ruth's record pretty good when you consider there are more than two months left in the season. All Rog has to do is hit 10 homers in August and 10 in September to lie the Babe even if he doesn't get another one this month.

There is no limit to the available area in this vicinity he said, The company has a large tract that could be developed over1 the years if there is justification. The picnic site is located in a shaded area alongside Cavitt Creek east of the Cavitt Creek road. The picturesque stream has a sizable ycar-around flow. A quiet expanse of water, though not deep enough for swimming, provides a safe wad ing pool for children. There is room in the immediate area. Moore points nut to install additional picnic sites. A large cleared area near by is to be pre pared for playing baseball and oth er sports. It is intended that use can be found for clubs, groups or organizations.

They fought snow and dust, mountains and lonely plains, all the way from Montreal to Vancouver, Brit'jh Columbia. The Corvairs won the respect of everybody. And "every, body" includes some of Europe's finest rallyists, not to mention a goodly portion of Canada's population. But then, winning respect is an old habit of Corvair's.
