Newspaper Page TextOrioles Edge White Sox; Yanks Open League Lead Br UNITED PRESS Jack Harshman, who was the question mark of the Bal timore pitching staff in pre season calculations, became the American League's first five-game winner of the year Saturday when he hurled the Orioles to a 5-2 triumph over the Boston Red Sox. Harshman's five victories equal the entire team total wins of the team which trad ed him away the Chicago White Sox. Harshman, who had a seri ous back ailment which al most caused the deal to be cancelled, yielded only five hits and struck out five bat ters, including Ted Williams twice. Erratic control helped get him into trouble in the sixth, seventh and eighth in nings but he twice was bail ed out by Baltimore double plays. The Orioles snapped a 1-1 Braves Stop Redlegs In 6th Straight Win By UNITED PRESS The Milwaukee Braves equalled the National league's longest winning streak of the season Saturday when they defeated the Cincinnati Red legs, 5-3, for their sixth straight triumph.

Carlos Ortiz said today he's content to wait a year for a shot at the lightweight title, despite his convincing victory Friday night over fourth-ranked contender Joey Lopes at Legion Stadium. The 21-year-old New York er, unbeaten now in 27 pro fessional fights, figures he'd be making a mistake to take on so formidable a foe as champion Joe Brown "at least until nearly next, year." Ortiz a clever boxer with a sharp punch, turned in his most impressive performance to date in winning'' a unani mous 10-round decision from the game Sacramento, .Calif., fighter before a national tele vision audience - and some 1,700 fans who contributed a gross gate of $2,150. Ortiz suffered a bad gash near the left eye in the final stanza, which he claimed was the result of a butt. tie with four runs in the sixth inning. Three walks, and an error by losing pitcher Tom Brewer set up the frame which also included run-scoring singles by Brooks Robin son and Foster Castleman. The New York ankees op ened up a two and a half game first-place lead when they beat the Washington Senators, 8-0, the White Sox shaded the Cleveland Indians, 5-4, and the Detroit Tigers de feated the Kansas City Ath letics, 3-2, in the other Am erican league games. Whitey Ford and Ryne Du ren combined in a six-hitter for the ankees, who have won five of their last six games. Gil McDougald and Jerry Lumpe had three hits each and Bill Skowron hit his fourth homer to pace New York's 11-hit attack. Ford, who was hit on the left fore arm by a pitched ball in the third inning, did not suffer a serious injury. Dick Donovan struck out seven Indians as he gained his first win for the White Sox. Nelson Fox and Ron Jackson knocked in four of the White Sox' runs, Fox' third hit driving in the win ning tally in the eighth. Ray Boone homered in the second inning and singled home the winning run in the fourth for the Tigers, who got six-hit pitching from Billy Hoeft. It was the second straight game in which Boone, who had gone 0-for-14, drove in the winning run.
