Cannonading Yankees Blast Orioles
To Move Past White Sox Into 2nd;
Eye Opportunity To Surge in Front
By FRED DOWN
United Press Sports Writer
Manager Casey Stengel was
3 dining on his own words today
but couldn't be happier because
his New York Yankees are feast
ing on rival pitchers again.
. Only a week after Stengel
labeled them "the worst hitting
New York team I've had," the
Yankees unleashed a total of 30
iMows good for 49 total bases -in
crushing the Baltimore Orioles,
(7-2 and 20-6.
As a result of the heavy can
nonading the Yankees:
1. Moved past the Chicago
hite Sox into second place in
' the American league race only
q& . half game behind the Cleve
,land Indians.
2. Stretched their winning
streak to four games the long
est they've put together since
July 2.
3. Attained their largest single
game run output of the cam
paign and scored in double fig-
'ures for the first time since June
2.
4. Can take over first place by
beating the Orioles twice again
today.
. The Yankees sliced a game-and-a-half
off the Indians' mar
gin when Cleveland bowed to
the Kansas City Athletics, 7-3,
Sunday. They moved past the
White Sox, who defeated the De
troit Tigers, 5-4, and held their
three-game lead over the fourth
place Red Sox who walloped
the Washington Senators, 9-6
and 2-1.
Yankees Rout Lopat
Hank Bauer homered in each
game and Mickey Mantle and
Yogi Berra also hit homers in
the Yankees' tremendous as
sault. They routed ex-Yankee Ed
Lopat in a four-run fifth inning
in the opener and blasted seven
pitchers for 20 hits in the night
cap. Whitey Ford received cred
it for his 13th win in the opener
and comeback kid Tommy Byrne
hit his 11th victory in the second
game.
The Athletics pounded Mike
Garcia for six runs in the three
innings and went on to snap
Cleveland s six-game winning
streak with the aid of Art Dit
mar's fine relief perfomance. Dit
mar took over for ailing Bobby
Shantz in the fifth inning and
yielded only two hits in 4 2-3
innings to gain credit for his
eighth win. Garcia, a 19-game
winner last season, now is 8-11.
Fleet Jim Rivera scored from
third base on Walt Dropo's in
field out in the eighth inning to
five the Whitf Sox their third
win in four games. Billy Pierce
won his ninth game of the sea
son and first over his former
Detroit teammates in two years.
George Susce Jr., pitched a
seven-hitter for his sixth win
for the Red Sox after Norm
Zauchin's 23rd and 24th homers
paced the Boston to its first-
game triumph. Billy Klaus'
double, Ted Williams' single an
error and Jackie Jensen's sacrr
fice fly gave the Red Sox their
two runs in the first inning of
the nightcap. Zauchin drove in
five runs in the opener.
Roberts Beats Newcombe
In the National league, Robin
Roberts and Don Newcombe fin
ally met in their long-awaited
duel with the Philadelphia Phil
lies' star coming out on top of
the Brooklyn Dodgers ace, 3-2,
in 10 innings. The Dodgers re-
bounded to win the second game
5-4, on Carl Furillo's 13-inning
single and still lead by lSVi
games. Their magic number is
"24" with 40 games to play.
Roberts' victory was his third
in a row and made him the first
major league pitcher of the sea
son to win 19 games. Newcombe.
suffered his second straight loss
and now has an 18-3 record.
Sid Gordon's 200th homer of
his career gave the New York
Giants a 4-2 victory over the
Pittsburgh Pirates in their open-
er and the 37-year-old veteran
also homered in New York's
3-1 nightcap win. Johnny Anton
elli won his 10th game and Jim
Hearn his 13th for the Giants.
Ted Kluszewski's 40th and
41st homers of the year were
not enough as the St. Louis Card
inals shaded the Cincinnati Red-
legs, 5-4, in 10 innings and the
Milwaukee Braves won a 4-3,
10-inning decision over the Chi
cago Cubs in the other National
league games. ";

lip and walloped him with a

Exterior Looks Very
Necessary in Product
Akron, O. U.R) No matter
who designed and made the in
side of most industrial products
today, the chances are that the
outside appearance is the idea
of a special designer like those
in Smith, Scherr & McDermott
here. v
They are design engineers.
They put the "package" around
the finished product the out
side casing that presents itself
to the world.
That might be the outside of
a radio, a toy tractor, a beer can,
a sewing machine or a soft-drink
container. They have done all
those things.
The idea behind the business
is .that it isn't enough for a
product to be merely good any
more. It has to be salable and
prospective buyers, whether
they be of the general public
or from a specialidsd firm, are
attracted to the well-finished
exterior.

If takes a lot of fine ingredients to make
Oregon's own beer your better buyl
Just as most folks keep a supply of cooking ingredients
handy in canisters in their kitchens, so we at Blitz
Weinhard keep a full "cupboard" of che wholesome
grains and malts we use in preparing beer for you.
The difference is that our six "canisters" hold more
than a million pounds of barley-malt and choice cereal
grains. The malt that goes into mellower Blitz has been
germinated and modified from the most carefully
selected barleys. And cereal grain, while a minor ingredi
ent in brewing, is the pure adjunct that gives Blitz the
lighter, cleaner taste demanded by today's beer lovers.
Top-quality ingredients are only one-third of the Blitz
success story ultra-modern equipment and, most im
portant, old-world brewing artistry must also receive
credit. At Blitz, this artistry emanates from our famed
brewmaster, Dr. Max Zimmermann, whose "recipe" for
fine beer is winning more and more Northwest folks
over to Blitz every day.
You are cordially invited to see this combination of
f actors working together to brew a truly fine beer. There
are conducted tours through the Blitz brewery, Monday'
through Friday 10 and 11 a.ni. and 1, 2 and 3 p.m.
with group tours by appointment. Pay us a visit soon,
won't you?

Like gifted chefs measuring ingredients, Dr. Max
Zimmermann (right) and one of his brewers are seen
at the controls that release exact amounts of barley
malt to be used in each uniform brew of Blitz beer.

FACTS YOU SHOULD KNOW
ABOUT BLITZ WEINHARD
The barley-malt used in Blitz beer comes from
the West's largest and most modern malt-bouse,
located near Portland. It is transported in altra
sanitary, paper-lined grain cars.
If all the kernels of premium malt used in the
mash for only one Blitz brew (about 430 barrels
of beer) were laid end-to-end, they would reach
from Portland to Los Angeles 1
