Yanks Up AL Lead To Six Games Indians Defeat LA Angels 5-3 By Unittd Prast International Remember Roger Maris' time table? Well, the Yankees nave a new one today and if they stick to it, they re a cinch to win the Ameri' can League pennant by their big' gest margin in 15 years. Here's how it works: The Yankees already have bal looned their lead to six games. That means they still have two full months in which to better their famous finish of 1947, when they killed off all the contenders early and won by 12 games. Actually, the Yanks are far ahead of schedule. A year ago this time they were only IVi games ahead and came home eight lengths in front. So you can draw your own conclusions about their chances of topping that 15 year-old 12-game . spread. Even with Mickey Mantle on the sidelines Tuesday night, they still increased their lead by a full game with a 9-5 victory over the Washington Senators. Indians Beat Angels The Cleveland Indians knocked off the second-place Los Angeles ' Angels, 5-3, and the Baltimore Orioles beat the Minnesota Twins, 8 - 7, in the only other major league games scheduled. Mantle's left knee was still 'sore from a Sunday injury so he sat in the dugout and watched Moose Skowron and Elston Howard do most of the slugging. Skowron teed off on newly-wed Claude Osteon for a grand-slam homer in the first inning and Howard belted a two-run homer in the third off the Senator southpaw, who mar ried a beauty queen last Sunday, Bill Stafford scored his ninth victory in 15 decisions although Jim (Joates bad to be called upon to halt a four-run Washington rally in the eighth. While he was still around, .Stafford collected a pair oi douDics and drove in two runs, Gary Bell's effective relief pitch ing along with homers by Willie Kirkland and John Romano paced the Indians to their victory over the falling Angels. Kirkland and Romano each con nected in the sixth inning to give Cleveland a 3-1 lead and the Tribe pushed across what proved to be the winning run in the seventh with the aid of an error by losing pitcher Dan Osinski. Bell took over for starter Jim Perry in the top of the seventh and was nicked for a two -run double by Bob' Rodgers that tied the score at 3-all. 1 Bell, TioWever, didn't give up another hit the rest of the way to earn his eighth viC' tory, seven of which have come in relief. Rally Fell Short The Orioles barely managed to get by the Twins despite a six- run rally in the fourth inning, when Baltimore sent 11 men to bat and overcame a 2-0 deficit, Jerry Adair's single with - the bases full drove in the first two runs during the Orioles big up rising and anotheer run crossed the plate on a throwing error by los ing pitcher Jackie Collum. Singles by Whitey Herzog, Jackie Brandt and Brooks Robinson produced three more runs. Two unearned runs off reliever Lee Stange in the sixth stretched the Orioles' lead to 8-2 and as things turned out, they needed that margin after Harmon Kille- brew led off the seventh with his 26th homer and Earl Battey con fleeted for his eighth during a four-run rally in the eigth. Jack Fisher had a one hitter until the seventh. He was credited with his third win but knuckle- bailer Hoyt Wilhelm had to come to his rescue after Battey s three run homer made the score 8-7, JUMPER NEARED RECORD HELSINKI (UPI) - Tatyana Schelkonova of Russia, who has a world broad jump record of 21 feet, iV inches pending, soared 21 feet, 314 inches Tuesday in an international track and field meet during the Communist Youth Fes tival. 00 WASHINGTON TALLY Jim Piersoll slides safely into home on a double by John Schaive in. the eighth inning of the Senators game against the New York Yankees.

The outlook for San Francisco, to put it mildly, was bleak. The club had a 4-4 record up to mat stage of the season and appeared to be on the brink of disaster. After convincing his incredulous players that it could work, SF coach Red Hickey unveiled the new tactics before a capacity crowd of 57,000 at Memorial Stadi um, Baltimore, wnue me rama Colt fans looked on in disbelief, the 49ers staged one of the sea son's greatest upsets, 30-22.
