Don Newcombe Scores 20th
Pitching Victory of Season
By FRED DOWN
United Press Sports Writer
Don Newcombe became the
major leagues' lirst 20-game
victor of the year today and set
his sights on being the Brooklyn
Dodzers' bieeest winner in 32
years.
Newcombe yielded three home
runs but hung on for a 8-5 tri-
umph Thursday night to raise
his season record to 20-8 as the
Dodgers won the opener ol a
key three-game series with the
Redlegs. The victory enabled
the Dodgers to remain two
games behind the first-place Mil
waukee Braves and shoved the
Redlegs four games out of first
Dlace.
Newcombe requires only three
more victories to become the
Dodgers' biggest winner since
Dazzy Vance won 28 games in
1924. Since then, no Dodger
pitcher has won more than 22
games in a single season.
Redlegs Continue Homer Pace
Carl Furillo and Duke Snider
each drove in three runs to off
set a Redleg attack that featured
a three-run homer by Wally
Post and solo round-trippers by
Frank Robinson and Ed Bailey.
The three homers raised the
Redlegs' total to a new season
club mark of 183 and also ex
tended their team homer streak
to 20 games only four short of
the National league mark held
by the 1953 Dodgers.
Newcombe himself scored the
winning run in the top of the
ninth when he tallied on Sni
der's double. Big Newk walked
only one batter and struck out
six in giving the Dodgers their
eighth win in 18 meetings with
the Redlegs.
The Braves retained their two
game lead with an 11-5 win
over the Philadelphia Phillies
featured by a grand-slam homer
by Bobby Thomson in addition
to round trippers by Hank
Aaron and Johnny Logan. Ray
Crone won his 10th game of the
season, although he needed help
from Ernie Johnson. Stan Lopa
ta walloped two homers for the
Phillies to raise his season total
to 27.
Cards Down Bucs Twice
Vinegar Bend Mizell won his
12th game and Jackie Collum
his sixth as the St. Louis Cardi
nals downed the Pittsburgh Pi
rates, 3-0 and 3-2. Ray Katt hit
a two-run homer and scored the
third run for the Cardinals in
the opener while Bobby Morgan
singled home the winning run
in the ninth of the nightcap.
Johnny Antonelli chalked up
his 13th win and Max Surkont
his first when the New York
Giants swept the Chicago Cubs,
2-1 and 8-5. Daryl Spencer sin
gled home the winning run in
the ninth of the opener and the
Giants clinched the nightcap
with eight runs in the third in
ning. Nelson Fox whacked out
seven straight hits before he was
stopped to lead the Chicago
White Sox to 6-3 and 6-4 wins
over the American league-leading
New York Yankees. Fox had
five hits in the opener and two
in the nightcap as Bob Keegan
won his fourth game and Dixie
Howell registered his fifth. .
Yanks Retain Lead Gap
The Yankees, however, re
tained an eight-game lead when
the Boston Red Sox beat the
second-place Cleveland Indians,
2-1. Three walks and Jimmy
Piersall's sacrifice fly gave the
Red Sox their winning run and
Mell Parnell the decision over
16-game winner Bob Lemon.
Roy Sievers tied his own club
record when he hit his 25th
home run of the year to give the
Washington Senators a 5-3 deci
sion over the Kansas City Ath
letics. Chuck Stobbs- pitched
five hitter for his 12th win and
also started the winning three-
run, fifth-inning rally with a
double.
Ray Moore yielded three hits
before retiring with an injured
shoulder in the seventh inning
and beat the Detroit Tigers for
the fifth straight time as the
Baltimore Orioles scored a 3-0
victory in the other American
league game.

Sam Snea'd,
Bud Holscher
Putters Hot
St. Paul, Minn. (U.R) Samuel
Jackson Snead, the kind of mod
ern golfs old guard, used a soft
putter instead of his famous
driver to show the young pros
how it's done in the opening
round of the $20,000 St. Paul
Open.
Snead and a frail 25-year-old
CaliJornian each birdied eight
holes to tie for first place with
six-under par rounds of 66 at the
end of 18 holes.
"Don't touch that putter. I
don't want it to cool off," Snead
warned the other pros when he
walked into the clubhouse.
Bud Holscher of Apple Valley,
Calif., felt the same way after
tieing Snead for the lead.
"That putter never worked
better," Holscher said. "It was
almost unbelievable."
Cards Attest
The score cards attested to the
words of Snead and Holscher.
Snead sank putts of 8, 3, 10, 12, 3,
8, 26 and 4 feet for his eight
birdies. His usually erratic putter
failed him only on the 6th and
13th holes when he 3-putted for
bogies.
Holscher, playing in the same
threesome with Snead, outdid
the old master putting in shots
of 12, 6, 5, 12, 13, 15, 16 and 3
feet to match Snead's eight
birdies.
There was a real traffic jam
behind the front runners. One
stroke off the pace with 67s
were Ted Rhodes of Chicago, a
golfing buddy of Joe Louis; Dave
Douglas, Newark, Del., Howie
Johnson, Houston, Tex.; Dick
Mayer, St. Petersburg, Fla.; Fred
Hawkins, El Paso, Tex., and
Freddie Haas, New Orleans, La.
