NOBODY WANTS PETS - . j
Rhinelander, Wis. U.R) Two
departing Rhinelander residents
had trouble today trying to find
a new home for their pets. Their
pets are two 400-pound black
bears.
7 WITM tKZSt
Dixie Howell, a 33-yej-8ld
rookie nrho had just about given
up hop of winning a jb in the
major leagues, ie ihipinj up as
the Chicago White Sox moat val
uable player in the feverish
American League stretch run.
Howell, a strapping right
hander, won't win the official
MVP award because he's" been
with the team only half the sea
son but you can be sure he won't
receive a half share of world
series loot if the White Sox make
the grade.
It was Dixie to the rescue
again last night when the White
Sox beat the Boston Red Sox 7-5
and regained possession of first
place by a half game. -
The White Sox took over the
top rung before a home crowd of
41,166 when the Kansas City
Athletics surprised their rich re
lations, the New York Yankees
4-3, and dumped them into a
second-place tie with the Cleve
land Indians, who defeated the
Baltimore Orioles, 7-4.
Yankees Lose Fifth
The Yankees suffered their
fifth loss in eight games on their
final western trip when south
paw Alex Kellner turned in a
five-hitter and Hector Lopez ex
ploded his 11th homer in the
fifth inning.
Bob Lemon received credit for
his 15th victory of the season for
the Indians but needed a ninth
inning strikeout by Mossi to end
the game. Al Smith hit his 20th
homer and Bobby Avila, Hal
Naragon and Al Rosen each had
two hits as the Indians beat the
Orioles for the 16th time this
year.
Southpaw Billy Hoeft of De
troit took over the A. L. lead in
shutouts when his sixth of the
year beat Washington, 4-0. Frank
House and Bill Tuttle hit two
run homers for Detroit.
Newcombe Wins
Don Newcombe won his 19th
game behind an assault that in
cluded two homers by Roy Cam-
panella and four hits by Duke
Snider as the Brooklyn Dodgers
downed the Milwaukee Braves,
8-6,' and reduced their "magic
number' 'for clinching the Na
tional League pennant to "12."
Snider's homer marked the third
straight season in which he has
reached the 40-mark.
Ted Kluszewski blasted two
homers to raise his major league
leading total to 43 but the New
York Giants swept a double-
header from the Cincinnati Red
legs anyway. Johnny Antonelli
tossed a five-hitter to give the
Giants a 5-0 win in the opener
and Willie Mays hit his 39th and
40th homers to lead them to a
9-7 verdict in the second game.
Sam Jones won his 12th. game
witS relief aid from Hal Jeff coat
as the Chicago Cubs beat the
Philadelphia Phillies, 3-1, and
the St. Louis Cardinals and Pitts
burgh Pirates split in other N. L.
activity. Harvey Haddix won a
1-0 decision for St. Louis in the
completion of a suspended game
of July 17 but bowed in the
nightcap" 3-1, to Dick Little-
field.
