IT MEDFORD (OREGON) Brooklyn Stops St. Louis To Sweep Series Nears 2nd Place By FRED DOWN Vailed Press Sports Writer hose "nine old men" the ellovs who won it last year are still in the National League jtvnaent race. That's the Brooklyn Dodgers' mmmge today to the experts ' were beginning to view the 195? race as primarily at two teem struggle between the Mil waukee Braves and Cincinnati Redlegs. First the Braves reeled off 12 victories in their first 14 games and then the Redlegs mounted their 12-game winning streak. All the while the Dodgers had failed to put together more than three' victories in succes sion and there were whispers in N.L. dugouts that the old champs had "had it." So tonight they invade Cincin nati riding the trest of a four game winning streak-their long est of the season-and fresh from two smashing victories over the St. Louis Cardinals. The Dodg ers walloped the Cardinals, 10 4, Monday night to sweep the two-game series they opened with Sunday's 10-3 rout. Dodgers Move Up As a result, the Dodgers mov ed to within only a half-game of the second-place Braves and trail the front-running Redlegs by two and one-half. Duke Snider, Carl Furillo and Sandy Amoros walloped homers in an 11-hit Dodger attack that also included doubles by Gil Hodges, Al Walker, Jim Gilliam and Furillo. Every member of the Brooklyn lineup hit safely except Don Zimmer and pitch ers Don Drysdale and Clem La bine. Drysdale went the first seven innings to win his third game without -a loss. Labine, making his 13th relief appearance in 27 games, rushed in from the bull pen when the Cardinals rallied for two runs in the eighth and closed it out. A couple of old fashioned pitching duels marked the only two other games played in the majors Monday, the Washington Senators beating the Detroit Ti gers, 2-1, and the Baltimore Ori oles scoring a 2-0 victory over the Kansas City Athletics. Ramos Wins Third Pedro Ramos, the 22-year-old Hanlon Tops PCL Hurlers San Francisco (IB Pitcher Dick Hanlon of Los Angeles, with a perfect 4-0 record, leads the Pacific Coast League earned run averages with a 1.54, accord ing to statistics released today and including Sunday's games. Hanlon has appeared in five games, pitched 41 innings, struck out 12, wolked 12. Benny Daniels of Hollywood has the most wins 6 against no defeats, but his ERA is 2.38. Frank Kellert of San Fran cisco is the top hitter in the league with a .359 mark nine points up from last week. He also leads in total number of hits with 51. Joe Taylor of Seattle leads in homers, 10, and runs batted-in, 34. The strikeout leader is Curt Raydon of Hollywood with 44.

Bauer May Face Suit New York (IP) Outfielder Hank Bauer of the New York Yankees will go to bat in his own defense today at the dis trict attorney's office. Asst. Dist. Atty. Karl Grebow said Bauer will be asked to de scribe a brawl that took place last . Thursday morning at the Copacabana night club, when Edward Jones, a , delicatessen owner, was bopped in the nose. Jones claims Bauer did the bopping, but the husky Yankee star has denied the charge. Jones and his attorney, Anth ony Zingales, also will be pres ent at the district attorney's of fice. Zingales said his client, an admitted Yankee fan, is deter mined to press a charge of fel onious assault asainst Bauer and ! to bring suit against the out fielder for $250,000. The alleged attack took place while Bauer and four other members of the Yankees were honoring teammate Billy Mar tin at a birthday party at the night club. Yogi Berra, Mickey Mantle, Johnny Kucks and Whitey Ford were the other Yankees in attendance. Jones first declined to "make a case of it," but was cautioned ; by his lawyer ' not to let his "love of the Yankees" prevent him from pressing charges against Bauer.'

Still to be settled at the an nual spring meeting of the con ference was the knotty question of aid to athletes. The vote Monday was on a decision of the conference in Au gust of 1956 in Portland that any member on probation which failed to adapt its athletic pro gram in accordance with the conference dictates would be ex pelled by next Aug. 1. Probationary reports of Wash ington, Southern California, and California were approved' by unanimous vote of the nine rep resentatives. Oregon, Washington State, Stanford, and Idaho voted to expel UCLA according to Dr. Glenn Seaborg, conference press spokesman from the University of California. He said the negative votes were based on a belief UCLA had not "really and sincerely" tried to amend its program to put itself in line with the other members. The ultimatum to clean up grew out of an illegal payment to athletes scandal which erupt ed last year. Southern Cal and Washington were placed on two years probation, California was given one year probation and UCLA three. Seaborg said no school had threatened to "withdraw from the conference because of the penal ties "and in fact no such threat ever has been made before the conference." At present, athletes are per mitted to earn not more than $100 per month at each school. California members contend this is not enough because of the higher cost of living there.

Promoter Hoping For Title Fight New York (If Promoter Emil Lence said today he hasn't given up hope of signing Tommy (Hurricane) Jackson for a title fight with heavyweight cham pion Floyd Patterson. Lippe Breidbart, Jackson's manager, has demanded a $150, 000 guarantee and $25,000 train ing expenses, Lence said. He add ed these demands were "so in credibly high for a challenger that he (Jackson) is either afraid to fight Patterson again or some one behind the scenes is holding him back."
