Slaughter
As Winning Streak
By FRED DOWN
United Pri Sports Writer
Enos Slaughter keeps demon
strating why the New York
Yankees' American league rivals
rate him "the greatest pro of
'em all."
The 41-year-old, balding Enos
Slaughter showed the "young
'uns" how it's done Sunday
when he smashed five hits and
drove in five runs to lead the
Yankees to a 5-2 and 6-5 sweep
of the Cleveland Indians. The
victories extended the Yankees'
winning streak to eight games
and their first-place lead to a
season's high of 6V2 games.
Slaughter, who joined the
Yankees a year ago this month,
delivered a run-scoring single
and a three-run homer in the
opener and capped the perform
ance when he singled in the
ninth inning of the nightcap to
drive in Yogi Berra with the de
cisive run.
The Chicago White Sox drop
ped another half-game off the
Yanks' pace despite an 11-6 vic
tory over the Boston Red Sox,
the Washington Senators out
homered the Detroit Tigers, 8-4
and the Baltimore Orioles tied
the Indians for fourth place with
a 5-0 decision over the Kansas
City Athletics.
Hold NL Lead
The St. Louis Cardinals split
a double-header with the Phila
delphia Phillies, winning, 4-1
after a 5-4 defeat, and held first
place by a half game after an
other furious day of activity in
the National league. The Mil
waukee Braves downed the
Brooklyn Dodgers, 9-7, the Cin
cinnati Redlegs rebounded from
a 14-inning, 7-6 loss to whip the
New York Giants, 3-2, and the
the Chicago Cubs ruined Danny
Murtaugh's managerial debut
with 6-0 and 3-2 wins over the
Pittsburgh Pirates in the other
NL games.
Whitey Ford struck out seven
and allowed six hits to win his
seventh game for the Yankees
in the opener and Bob Turley
also gained, his seventh win in
the nightcap. The Indians went
ahead, 5-4, in the eighth inning
when Dick Williams homered
but the Yankees tied the score
in the ninth on singles by Tony
Kubek, Berra and Jerry Lumpe
to set the stage for Slaughter.
Larry Doby, Louis Aparicio,
Bubba Phillips and Jim Rivera
led the White Sox' 19-hit assault
with three blows each as Chi
cago snapped its three-game "los
ing skein. Dick Donovan Hvent
the route for his 12th win de
spite 14 hits, three by Ted Wil
liams, who raised his league
leading average to .389.
Pedro. Ramos, Milt Boiling,
Rocky Bridges and Eddie Yost
homered for Washington and Al
Kaline, Bill Tuttle and Ray
Boone homered for Detroit in a
game that set a homer-mark for
Griffith Stadium bulp the big
news was that Roy Sievers fail
ed to connect for ona Sievers
had homered in six ' straight
games but had only a single in
five tries. Ramos won his
eighto decision while Frank
Lary dropped his 15th game
compared to four victories.
Billy Loes pitched lis third
shutout and 11th win of the
season, a five-hitter that handed
Kansas City its seventh straight
defeat. Loes struck out eight be
hind a 10-hit attack, including
three blows by Willie Miranda.
Lindy McDaniel scattered
nine hits for his ninth triumph
as the Cardinals gained a split
after Larry Jackson walked
home the Phillies' decisive run
in the 12th inning of the open
er. Harry Anderson sent the
lirst game into extra innings
with a two-out, ninth-inning
homer.
Braves Take Dodgers
The Braves gained a half
game on the Cardinals with a
13-hit offense sparked by hom
ers by Ed Mathews, Del Rice,
Johnny Logan and Hank Aaron.
Bob Buhl won his 14th game
and fourth of the yea over the
Dodgers although he was knock
ed out in the eighth inning. Sal
Maglie lost his fourth game. -
Frank Robinson singled home
the winning run for the Red
legs as Vicente Amor gained his
first major league victory after
a see-saw, 4-hour and 20-minute
opener in which Willie Mays
hit two homers and a triple.
The Giants won the first game,
in which 43 players appeared,
when Tom Acker walked three
men In the 14th inning and Ray
Katt came through with a sacri
fice fly.
The Cubs, who had swept only
one of 20 previous double-headers,
dropped the Pirates into
last place when they won the
opener on Moe Drabowsky's
six-hitter and the second game
on Jack Littrell's llth-inning
SNAKE IN THE CLASS
Denver Wi Vandals who
broke into the Knapp Elemen
tary school Sunday may hate
schools but they appear to love
animals. Although they did con
siderable damage to tables,
chairs and bulletin boards, they
released two turtles, a frog and
three garter snakes from their

Los Angeles (TO Pancho
Gonzafes, the world's profess
ional tennis champion, today re
mained the master of the courts
following his second straight vic
tory in the $10,000 Masters
Round Robin Championships.
Gonzales Sunday earned top
grize money tf $2,500 by de
feating Frank Sedgman, 6-1, 3-6,
6-1, in the title singles match.
The big veteran also added $500
for second place in the doubles.
Sedgman wound up in a threes,
way tie for second place with
Pancho Segura and Ken Rose
wall. Each collected $1,083.33
ending up with 4-2 records in
the action at Los Angeles Ten
nis Club.
Gonzales won five singles
neatches during the nine-day
tourney, losing only to Rose
(wail. The big dissappointment of
promotor Jack Kramer's tourna
ment was the performance of
his $125,009 bonus rookie, Aus
tralia's Lew Hoad. Hoad failed
to win a match, absorbing his
sixth loss Sunday at the hands
of Tony Trabert, 9-7, 7-5.
Trabert and Sedgman divided
$1,500 for winning the doubles
title vith a 4-2 record. Gonzales
and Rosewall rallied to down
Trabert and Sedgman, 4-6, 10-8,
7-5, but were forced to collect
only second place in doubles
because they jad lost to the win
ning team twice earlier.

The Butt Falls Loggers,
long-time members of the
Rogue Valley baseball league,
yesterday suspended opera
tions for the balance of this
season.
Burrel Facey, learn man
ager, said the move was made
necessary because of the labor
strike al Butte Falls. Facey
said most of his ball players
had left the area to seek other
employment since being idled
by the strike. Also, Facey said,
game receipts had dwindled
to the point where it was im
possible to take in enough
mon lo pay for ball games, let
alone umpires and other
game expenses.

" United Press Sports Writer
"Vancouver, Seattle and Port

in the Pacific Coast league con
tests Sunday while San Fran
cisco, still holding out in the
league's first spot, split a twin
bill with Hollywood.
Vancouver downed ..the San
Diego Padres 3-2 and 1-0 behind
the fine pitching of Art Houtte
man in the first game and Char
lie Beamon in the second.
The single run in the last
game came after two outs in
the ninth frame. With Mountie
Joe Frazier on third base, Padre
relief pitcher Donal Nichols
fired a fast ball into the dirt
which allowed Frazier to scurry
across the plate and win the
ball game for Vancouver.
Bevan Hits Homers
Hal Bevan's powerful bat led
the Seattle Rainiers to a double
victory over the Los Angeles
Angels, 6-3 and 8-7. Bevan hit
a homer in each game and also
singled in another run in the
second contest. '

twice, 2-1 and 4-2, in games that
featured an error that cost the
Solons the first game and an
inside-the-park homer that tied
up the second contest.
Costly Error
Solon second baseman Sollie
Drake, missed a grounder in the
first inning of the opener that
allowed Portland's Earl Rapp to
score. In the fifth frame of the
nightcap, Portland's Luis Mar
quez slammed an inside-the-park
four-bagger to tie that con
test, after which the Beavers
collected two more runs to win
it. : ,, '
In San Francisco the Holly
wood Stars "won the 12-inning
opener from the ' Seals 4-3, but
the Seals came back in the
nightcap to win 7-6. San Fran

bases-loaded single in the ninth
inning of the nightcap to win
it.
The Seals' victory went to
pitcher Leo Kiely, who came
in duriqg the eighth inning re
