-rT Yanks Win 6th Siraight To Increase AL Margin By United Press Inttrnttlontl The dog days of August are having little bite on the New York Yankees, and the American League pennant race may be re duced to a trot by the time September rolls into view. The Yankees, who played un :;der .500 ball last August, won - their sixth straight game with a ; i0-inning, 6-4 decision over the Los Angeles Angels Sunday to " increase their league lead to nine full games over Chicago. Even more frightening to the other nine clubs than the huge lead is the pure statistics of the situation. The Yankees, with a 74-40 record, need only split their remaining 48 games to finish with 98 victories. . , , Chicago, to match this total, would have to take 32 of their remaining 46 contests. That would be a .696 clip, or 127 percentage points better than the White Sox have been doing thus far. The Sox didn't help their cause tBLM Captures Tourney Berth The "Bureau of Land Manage ment Softball team clinched a spot in next week's YMCA Church League tournament by crushing the Conservative Baptist nine, 23-1, in a league counter. BLM wound un the season with a 6-4 league record and at least a tie for third in the final stand ings as a result of the lopsided win. The top four teams in league piay wiu compete in me tourna ment. Bill Barker and Dave Daniels combined talents to toss a nifty , three-hitter at the Conservative Baptist team, with Daniels com ing on to pitch three innings of io-no ball.

Chicago now has lost 10 games more than the Yankees. Twins Beat Boston ine Minnesota Twins scored a 5-Z win over the Boston Red Sox It was the sixth straight success for the third-place Twins and kept them 9V4 games behind the Yankees. The Baltimore Orioles beat the Washington Senators, 6-2, and the Cleveland Indians edged ine Kansas Liny Athletics, 2-1. Elston Howard and Hector Ln. pez, both late-game replacement shared the hero roles for the Yankees. Howard slammed a three-run, two-out, ninth-inning homer to send the game into ex tra innings, and Lopez drove in me winning run with a 10th inning single. Relief pitcher Bill Stafford stopped the Angels over the final two frames to gain his fourth victory, and Julio Navarro iook tne loss. Aids Own Cu Gary Peters went all the wav for Chicago in the second game, and in addition to holding Detroit to just one earned run ' he con tributed a single, double and homer to his own cause. How ever, he needed an 11th inning home run by Dave Nicholson to gain his 12th triumph and his seventh in a row. Don Mossi and Terry Fox scattered seven hits for Detroit in the openr and got their main hitting support from Bubba Phillips and Al Kaline, each with three safeties. Zoilo Versalles hit a two-run homer in the fourth inning and Don Mincher connected with two on in the fifth to account for all the Minnesota runs. Camilo Pas cual took it from there, yielding only a two-run homer to Dick Stuart, to gain his 14th victory in 20 decisions. Pitcher Milt Pappas slammed a two-run homer and relief hurler Stu Miller contributed a bases filled triple as Pappas beat Wash ington for the eighth straight time. Ron Inline was the loser.

Hammond lost control when 'his jalopy hit the shoulder, rolling twice and ending in the center 'of the track. The only thing injured in the accident was Hammond's car and his pride. (Photo Lab) Clark, Schol lander Record New Marks In Swim Meet CHICAGO (UPI) Steve Clark continued the youthful assault on records in the windup of the national AAU outdoor swimming championships Sunday that Don Scholiander began the previous day. Dr. Jim Counsilman's powerful Indianapolis Athletic Club con tinued its domination of the team title, and Lt. Tom Gompf of the Air Force, who must have felt like the proverbial "bridesmaid," finally won a national diving title. More records might have fallen during the three-day tourney at Ridgeland Common Pool in Oak Park had world breaststroke rec ord holder Chet Jastremski been able to compete. Jastremski, 22, of Toledo, Ohio, suffering from sore legs, gave it a try during the opening of competition Fri- aay, men Dowea out Saturday for the second time in . two weeks.

He swam a 200-meter freestyle of 1:58.7 in the relay, but it will not count as a world record. The mark is held by Bob Windle of Australia, a 2:00.3 set last April. Betters Own Mark Clark, 20, of Los Altos, Calif., broke his American and meet record in the 100-meter freestyle Sunday with a preliminaries time of :54.2.

(Bob Leber Photo) Butts Returns To St and In Grid Libel Suit ATLANTA (UPI) - Wallace Butts was scheduled to return to the stand today as leadoff witness in the second week of the trial of his $10 million libel suit against the Saturday Evening I Post. The former football and athletic director at the University of Georgia has testified under oath that he never gave important football secrets to Alabama Coach Paul (Bear) Bryant prior to last fall's game between the two schools. The Saturday Evening Post, in an article last March, claimed that the information helped Ala bama in its 35-0 defeat of the Georgia Bulldogs.

He charged in the suit that the magazine had ruined his career and spoiled his reputation that had won for him a number of honors, including the presidency of the Football Coaches Associa tion, a national organization of college coaches. Butts was expected to be asked today, on cross examination, more details of his avowed friend ship with Frank Scobey, a Chica go beer distributor who has told the Senate rackets committee that he made big bets on horse racing and football games with an Indiana gambling syndicate. Scobey was not called as a wit ness during five days of testi mony last week but his sealed deposition is on file in the case and could be entered into testi mony. Butts testified Fridav that Sco bey had helped him get a $6,000 loan trom a cmcago Dank and had paid part of his bills on a trip to New York but that he never knew Scobey gambled. Butts' testimony that he never conspired to rig last fall's Ma nama-Georgia game was followed by an earlier denial by Bryant, who also has sued the Post. He went on to win the finals in :54.9 after ne trailed during a good part of the race behind Richard McDonough, 20, South Orange, N. J., who was second at :55.1. Gompf. 24, from Dayton, Ohio, thwarted the attempt of young, unheralded Larry Andreascn to sweep the diving competition. With his blonde, beaming wife looking on, Gompf told newsmen his 10-mcter diving title Sunday was his first national triumph after seven consecutive times as runner-up. Andreasen, 17, from Commerce, Calif., Swim Club, won the 3 me ter and junior platform diving titles earlier. Carl Robie, 18, of Drexel Hill, Pa., swam the 200-meters butter fly Saturday in 2:08.8 to break the mark of 2:10.8 he set in wim ning the same title as last year's aau meet. Wins Medley Title Sixteen-year-old Richard , Roth turned in a great 2:16.0 in the 200-meters individual medley Sun day to wrest the title from Ted Stickles of the Indianapolis club. Roth, of Atherton, Calif., led at the end of the butterfly, back stroke and breaststroke sections, then resisted successfully a pow erful 50-mcter finish by Stickles. Stickles, 21, from Santa Clara, Calif., who holds the American and meet record of 2:15.9, was second. The Indianapolis "A" team won the tourney's final event the 400 meters medley relay to climax its seventh straight title. Indianapolis finished with 106W points.

Don Hein's track record of 15.34 seconds that was set July 27 fell to Johnny Barron in the tie tri als when Barron circled the track in a : 15.28 clocking. Barron's rec ord held up about five minutes, with Bud Van Osten clipping the track record down to 15.11 sec onds. Hein, Barron and Van Ost en are all Roseburg drivers. However, Hein was not com pletely shutout during the action. The local ace came on strong to win his second successive A tro phy dash, while Ray Gardner pf Bandon captured the B trophy dash. In an accident-free main event Van Osten nipped Jim Standley, Roseburg, and Gardner to take top honors. The only mishap came in the 10th lap when John Lazarus lost a wheel and spunout. Heat winners included Gardner and Standley. A spectacular crash occurred in the first heat race of the jalopy action when Walt Hammond hit the shoulder on the upper right field turn. Hammond's auto rolled several times down the back stretch, ending on its side in the center of the track. The driver escaped without serious injury, but his car was out of commission. Vern Dykstra won the 25-lap jalopy main event by edging Har old Hardeste in a hard-fought bat tle. A total of 21 cars started the race, but only 11 crossed the fin ish line. In the third lap a three car pile-up cut the field to 19 jalopies and spinouts and break downs accounted for four more by the 14th lap. In the 14th lap Bill Kelsay spun into the infield and rammed Bob Johnson's jalopy. No injuries re sulted. Jim Daugherty won the jalopy trophy dash, while Dean Price and Hardoste paced the field in the heat races.
