Medfo Cleveland Gains on Yanks in Flag Race By UNITED PRESS Al Lopez charged up his In dians with a "hustle or else" edict Monday for their final tour of the Eastern Badlands where they have cracked up in other years in the stretch drive for the pennant. He demonstrated how tough he could get Sunday when he ordered slugging star Larry Doby out of the first game with the White Sox for failing to hustle. The . Indians swept both games, 6 to 2 and 2 to 1, to move within IV2 games of the leading Yankees. Doby, the league's big gest run producer with 83, sat on the bench all the way after his misadventure in the fourth inning of the opener. Doby Piqued I The incident occurred when Doby, apparently piqued be cause the scorer did not give him a hit on a ball that was fumbled by Eddie Robinson, failed to get from first to third on a single to right by Luke Easter. Wally Westlake, Doby's replacement, did not get a hit, although the Indians won both games on fine pitching by Bobby Feller and Mike Garcia. The comeback of the two right handers also was signifi cant since neither had been of much use lately. Feller pitched six-hit ball to win his first game since Aug. 3, while Garcia, who had been batted out six straight times, turned in a steady eight hitter for his 15th win. It was his first victory since July 24. The Indians, who open a series in Boston Tuesday, then move to New York to play the Yankees in a make or break series on Friday, cashed in on opportune hitting in both games. Harry Simpson's three-run hom er in the seventh was the key blow in the opener, while Gar cia himself squeeze bunted v in his winning run. - . 100th Hit Gene Woodling picked a fine time to get his 100th hit of the year, singling home the winning run for the Yankees in the ninth in their 3 to 2 conquest of Bos ton, also' highlighted by the two hit three-inning scoreless relief pitching" of young Tom Morgan. In other American League games, the Browns topped the Tigers 4 to 2, then lost 4 to 2, while the Senators defeated Philadelphia 7 to 2, then lost 11 to 7.

Standings Leo Durocher Faces Fine For Rhubarb New York (U.R) Manager Leo Durocher of the Giants, who was only an impulse away from baseball, faced a fine and possible suspension Monday for what looked a lot like an at tempt to punch Umpire Augie Donatelh. ' Giant front office officials, ad mitting that Durocher would have been banned from baseball for life had be punched the um pire, conceded Leo would be fined but hoped that he would avoid a suspension. The incident; occurred in the ninth inning of Sunday's opener with ' the Boston Braves, and Warren Giles, president of the National league, was telephoned a full report, on it Sunday night. Little To Say The main characters.in the in cident Durocher, Dbnatelli and Manager Charlie Grimm of the Braves had little to say, leav ing it in Giles' hands. Durocher, attempting to make light of the affair, refused to confirm or deny that Jie had at tempted to hit Donatelli. "It's just like any manager be ing thrown out of a ball game. That's all there is to it," he said Examination Asked The incident flared up sudden ly as Hal Gregg, fifth . Giant Pitcher . in the opener, reached the mound from the bullpen to start the ninth inning. Donatelli umpiring at second base, asked to examine the baseball. Duro cher grabbed the ball from Gregg's glove and threw it in stead to Plate Umpire' Al Bar-lick. After a brief exchange of words, Donatelli waved Du rocher out of the game. The Giant manager jumped into the air, waving both arms. Then he cocked his right arm as if to throw a punch and raced after Donatelli. COAST LEAGUE Oakland Hollywood . San Diego .

Drinking College Students Had Liking Before School New York (U.R) Bovs and girls don't suddenly acquire a liking for whiskey and beer when they go off to college they had the liking before they ever saw the campus. Yale University's laboratory of applied physiology made a five-year study of college stu dents' drinking habits which in volved 17,000 boys and girls en rolled in 27 colleges and univer sities. It had nothing to do with ex cessive -drinking or with any question of campus . morality. Or, rather, the first findings now being disclosed at Yale's sum mer session in alcohol studies, didn't. It demonstrated, the research ers claim, that boys and girls in their drinking ways are much like their parents. Robert Straus, research associate, who made the studies with Selden D. Bacon, director of Yale's center of alcohol studies, said: Drinking Relationship "Of the men whose parents both drink, 90 per cent are themselves users. However, only half of the . men (51 per cent) whose parents both abstain, drink. An even more striking re lationship between parental use and own use is seen for the women, "Where both parents are us ers, 83 per cent -of the women drink on occasion. However, when both parents abstain, only 19 per cent of the women stu dents drink. "The customs and attitudes of young persons with regard to drinking, are already pretty well determined before they come to college by the prac tices, attitudes, and customs of their families, their social groups and their communities. In the absence of facts, there has been much conjecture and misinformation and often many sincere persons have acquired quite a distorted impression of the nature of drinking behavior and the problems of alcohol in American colleges. It is hoped that this study will provide a body of knowledge to replace present wild speculation."

Indeed,' the sugar diet pro duced 38 per cent fewer cavities than the cereal and milk diet and on the average, the cavities were only half as large. "When fed under similar con ditions,' the whole grain cereals corn, wheat, and oats were found to be less cavity-pfoduc-ing in each case than their pro cessed products corn flakes, wheat flakes, and oatmeal," the research report said. It suggested the processing changed the cereal chemicals in to forms which were more nour ishing; for ; cavity-producing bac teria.' There also was a possibil ity of refining destroying natur al antibiotics. A practical outcome of the ex periment was its backing of the cavity-preventing qualities of the frequently wielded tooth brush. The scientists pointed out Monday.
