Chicago Beats Orioles, 5-2;
Mantle Leads Yankees to Win
By carl lundquist
United Press Snorts Writer
" Pitcher Jim Wilson is making
his new boss, Chuck Comiskey
of th White Sox, look like a
pretty slick trader.
The youthful Comiskey, who
Ik carrvins on with the White
Sox after the departure of such
geniuses as Frank Lane and
Paul Richards, swung the deal
on Mav 21 that broueht Wilson
and utility player Dave Philley
to Chicago. The WMte box gave
up pitchers Mike1 Fornieles and
Connie Johnson, third baseman
George Kell, and outfielder Bob
Nieman and the fans began to
howl loudly that Chicago had
been rooked.
Today the ex-White Sox boss,
trader Frank Lane is catching
heck in St. Louis for his "shimmy
and shake" transactions and the
Baltimore fans are grumbling at
Richards for some of his deals,
particularly the one involving
Wilson.
Wilson Cops Fifth
Monday night hard-working
Jim won his fifth game since
donning a Chicago uniform and
the 5-2 seven hit triumph was
his second over the Orioles since
the trade was made.
What makes it worse on Rich
ards, the former White Sox man
ager who completed the deal for
Baltimore, is that only Nieman
has done much for the Orioles.
He has been hitting well but
Kell has been hurt and the two
pitchers have been just so-so.
But Wilson, who has a 9-3
mark now,- has turned in one
good game after another. And in
Monday night's triumph, which
kept the runner-up Chicagoans
5V4 games behind the leading

Yankees, Philley also was a
prominent figure. He scored two
runs, got a hit, a sacrifice and
played both right field and first
base. Chicago racked up three
Baltimore pitchers, including
Fornieles, for 10 hits.
Yanks Beat Tigers
The Yankees topped the Tigers
at Detroit, 7-4 on the margin of
Mickey Mantle's three-run homer
in the eighth, perhaps the longest
blast ever delivered in Briggs
Stadium. The ball cleared the
roof of the park at the 360-foot
mark where the triple decker
stands are 110-feet high.

IWITtD STATU AUTO CUJS
Foftf's rscord was timed and certified
by Uw United Statts Auto dub
A Ford V-8 hurtled across the brick and asphalt
surface of tough and testing Indianapolis Speed
way . . . whirling through the tight turns and
flashing over the straight stretches , . . to set a
mark that no stock car ever reached before!
Previous to Ford's record run, no other stock
car had gone even one lap at Indianapolis at
100 m.p.h., but one-of Ford's laps was timed at
the electrifying speed of 113.7 m.p.h.! And Ford
averaged 107.126 m.p.h. for the full five hundred
miles . . . close to the average set by the extremely
costly, specially-built racer which won the Me
morial Day "500"!
Ford fully realizes that the welter of claims
and counter claims about "racing victories"
(many of them completely contradictory) must
be confusing and disillusioning to the public.
Ford ran this race against time, over the true
"Classic" distance and at the most famous track
in America, In order to dispel this cloud of doubt
and disbelief and prove that no one outperforms
Ford! ,
Peter de Paolo, leader of the team of drivers
that piloted the winning Ford, states flatly: "No
other stock car could have equalled this per
formance!" And Pete de Paolo should know, for
he was the first driver to win the "500" Classic
with a better than 100 m.p.h. average. And now
he comes back with a group of drivers to estab
lish a stock car record with the great '56 Ford!
Yet, this" was no mere race against the stop
watch. Ford's alert responsiveness and sheer
readability proved more than a match for the
treacherous turns . . . taking them smoothly and
giving the great Ford V-8 a chance to use its
blazing acceleration in the straightaways.
Ford wrote this new mark large and bold in
the record books. And the whole Ford did the
trick. From the hood-full of throbbing horse
power to the road-hugging rear end, Ford
demonstrated that it has what it takes to make
your driving more enjoyable. Convince yourself
that driving a Ford can be real fun. Test drive
a '56 Ford. There's a set of keys waiting for you,
so come in and see us soon.
