A (Giant spokesman explained yesterday that some of the play ers may not come.to the training camp until later in the week. Some are waiting discharge from the armed services and others are just .ending their ROTC summer camps. - First practice is scheduled for this morning at 9:30.

He's won 12. -::.v,.:- Bin Franks started for the Sen ators, but after - three, straight opening hits he was replaced by Ernie Domenichelli. Before the tall righthander could get the side out, Tri-City scored five runs, four of them earned. The Braves threatened Domen ichelli in almost : every inning thereafter, but he repeatedly , got out of-the trouble. On one occa sion the Braves had back-to-back doubles by Jack Warren and Bob Moniz, but didn't score. Warren held up at third. . . The Braves twice loaded the bases with one out, but failed to score each time. In all Tri-City had 16 hits. 1 The Senators .got to Robertson for three runs in the first on an error, singles by Bob Kellogg, Tanselli and Harry Warner, and another error. In the third still another error, set it up for Dennis Luby to drive in a run, and in the fourth Salem tied the score at 5-5 on Hugh Luby's single, another error and Kellogg s single. Only two of the seven runs off Robertson were earned. - Salem had 13 hits, with Kellogg getting four. Generalissimo Hugh Luby of the Senators, who had five hits in seven trips in Saturday night's doubleheader, got two more in four tries last night Domenichelli's win was his fifth, against -four, losses. 4 The Senators now have today off, and on Tuesday night open a full week here at home, playing Victoria. Chances are that Side wheeler Joe Nicholas will make his debut in the Tuesday game. Johnny Briggs will go postward Wednesday night in the all-free "Pack the Park" game.

Only a few minutes earlier, the field was a mass of . swinging, punching, - wrestling players who participated in one of the biggest brawls since the days of the old St. Louis Browns. - . The free-for-all was touched off by catcher Sal Yvars of the Cards and first baseman Earl Torgeson of the Phils and before peace was restored rival 'Managers - Terry Moore of Philadelphia and Eddie Stanky of St. Louis had tangled. The last time a major league game was forfeited vas on Aug. 21. 1949 when New York was awarded a decision over Philadelphia in the second game of a doubleheader af ter Philadelphia fans had streamed onto the field. Plate Umpire Babe Pinelli stopped Sunday's game with the Phils ahead. 8-1 with one man on. base and two out in the fifth in ning. " With darkness- coming on, Stanky brought in two pitchers dur ing the inning although only one hit was made. Then he waved Tom Poholsky,in from the bullpen. This was more than Pinelli could. take and he walked over to the field telephone and announced to the press box that the game was forfeited The Cards said they would protest the forfeiture. None of the plays made goes into the record books and no box score was released. The lights couldn't be turned on because thegame did not start be fore 6 p.m. The Phils won the open er 11-10. While all this was going on, Cleveland held 'its half -game lead in the American League and the New York Yankees saw their 13 game winning streak snapped by Detroit in the second game of a doubleheader. ' . . The Yankees moved a half game in front of the Indians midway through the afternoon after they won their 13th straight 6-0 on Harry Byrd's five-hit shutout of Detroit in the first game and Cleveland lost to Washington 8-3. Cleveland came back to get an even break by winning the second 7-4 and the Yanks dropped an 8-6 decision to Detroit as Casey Steng el threw .21 players into the game. With the top two splitting, the Chicago White Sox gained ground on both by taking a pair from feeble Philadelphia 10-2 and 4-3. Manager Paul Richards .squelched a Philadelphia rally in the eighth inning of the second game by run ning out the time to the Pennsylvania curfew of 6:59 p.m Richards changed pitchers twice and was in the . midst of another change when plate umpire Charley Berry waved to the bullpen and ordered Harry DonsH to come in immediately. He never reached the mound before curfew time. Chicago had scored four in the eighth and the A's two, but, all were wiped off the record book.: Rookie Huss Kemmerer of the Boston Red Sox pitched a one-hitter to down Baltimore 4-0 in his first major league start. The only hit was a single by Sam Mele lead ing off the seventh, a smash off the wall that missed being a hom er by a foot Baltimore won the second 4-1 on Duane Pillette's five hitter. The New. York Giants' lead, was shaved a half game when the Na tional League leaders split with Cincinnati and Brooklyn routed Chicago 12-6, The Giants now le,ad by six games. Cincinnati . batted a half dozen Giant pitchers for 18 hit in the 14-4 opener with Chuck Harmon smash ing four singles. Monte Irvin and Willie Mays hit back-to-back hom ers to help the Giants pull out the , second game 3-1. It was Mays 33rd homer, leaving him six. games ahead of Babe Ruth's record home run pace in 1927. Russ Meyer won his 14th con secutive game from Chicago, ; as Brooklyn racked up three Cub pitchers in a 12-hit 'attack. Roy Campanella, Duke Snider and Carl Furillo hit homers for the Dodgers, Walker, Cooper and Ernie Banks for the Cubs. Cooper's came with the bases fuIL . The Milwaukee Braves split a doubleheader with the lowly Pitts burgh Pirates, winning the first game 4-1 and losing the second 7-5. Milwaukee' scored two runs off loser Dick Little field in the third on Hank Aaron's bases loaded single and two in ' the fourth on Del Crandall's 12th homer behind Johnny Logan's triple. Warren Spahn had a shutout go ing into the ninth but walked the first three men to face him and was nicked for the Pirates' run on Dick Cole's ' pinch single. Ernie Johnson; who relieved . with the bases full and none out, retired the next three men without any more scoring.
