United P$ess Inlernatioxal
The New York Yankees and

covered a neat trick how to
gain ground on a treadmill.
It sounds impossible but
that's exactly what the two
league leaders have been do
ing for the last week or 10
days. And it makes you won
der what's going to happen to
the race when the defending
cnamps start roumg again.
The Yankees, for example,
have played only .500 ball
since June 7, thre wins in six
games, yet have increased
their American League lead
from 8Vi to nine games. And,
since June 1, the Braves have
been below .500, four wins in
nine games, yet they've gone
from a game behind the San
Francisco Giants to a game
and a half in front of them.
The business-like Yankees
had a trying 10-hour day "at
the office" Thursday but

huge lead by winning the 12-

suffering a 4-1 defeat at the
hands of the Kansaj City Ath

Seattle Suds Bust
Mountie Win String
By GENE BRYANT .
United Press International
The Seattle Rainiers final?
ly broke 'through the hitting
barrier at Vancouver Thurs
day night d efeating the
pace-setting Mounties, 4-2, to
break the Canadians' string of
consecutive shutouts at six
straight.
Victimized twice by the
Mounties' formidable pitching
staff in one-run ball games
twice this week the Rainiers
scored twice in the seventh in
ning to snap Vancouver's
scoreless inning mark at 48,
then pushed across single runs
in the eight and ninth frames
to ice the victory.
The loss halted the Moun
ties' string of 1-0 victories at
four straight and ended their
winning streak at seven. The
seventh-inning Seattle upris
ing also marked the first runs
scored off Mountie starter
Gordon Smith in 31 and one
third innings.
Viftcher's Nightmare
At Phoenix, the second-
place Giants broke out of the
hitting doldrums to outslug
Salt Lake, 18-11, and move to
within two games of the
league-leaders. The Giants
slammed out 15 hits and three
home runs for the victory, al
though the Bees smashed five
four-baggers, including Dick
Stuart's 24th and 25th homers
of the season. The Giants
made the most of 13 bases on
balls.
San Diego dumped Sacra
mento, 10-2 for the third night
in a row and Spokane defeat
ed Portland, 4-2, in other
games.
Stuart's pair of fourmasters
at Phoenix put the Bee slug
ger almost a month ahead of
Tony Lazerri's record-breaking
total of 60 amassed in
1925. On June 13 of that year
Lazzeri had only 11 homers.
Leon Wagner and Dusty
Rhodes also homered for
Phoenix. Wagner drove in six
runs on five hits. Carlos Ber
nier, Kenny Toothman, and
Jim McDaniel cipped in with
a homer apiece for the Bees.
Phoenix sent 10 runners
across the plate in the fourth
inning to ice the win, the Gi
ants' second victory in their
last seven games.
At San Diego, the Padres
backed Hal Woodeshick with
16 hits to hand Sacramento its
fifth straight loss. Woode
shick struck out 10 Solon bat
ters, fanning Bob Roselli four
times, to pick up his fourth
win of the season. An outfield
error in the eighth let in the
only Sacramento runs.. Fred
Hatfield homered for the win
ners. . , .
.Spokane pushed across two
runs in the fourth frame on a
triple, two singles and a pair
of walks to break into the win
column against Portland. Jim
Baxes homered for the In
dians while Bob Di Pierto
lined one out of the park for
the Beavers. The loss sent
Portland back to the cellar.
Royals Pick Up
Full Game Lead
United Press International
Montreal increased its In
ternational league lead to a
full game Thursday night

Birrer double-teamed Havana
in a twin-bill, 10-3 and 7-1.
Toronto, in second place,
wen a single encounter from
Miami, 1-0, behind Don John
son's eight-hit hurling.
In other games, former big

Reese Feels
LA Dodgers
In Stride
By ALEX KAHN
Los Angeles (UPI)
Dodger CaptrPee Wee Reese
today cheerfully said "We had
to come around" as the Los
Angeles club for the first time
this 'season began looking like
the team of old.
. The little infielder, dean
of National league players,
with 15 years in the majors,
felt that from now on the club
would be a factor in the race.
"Don't forget we are no
further behind the first club
in the National league than
the Yankees are ahead of the
second club in the American
league,", the pleasant spoken
Reese said as he awaited his
turn An ,the batting cage
Reese had been appearing reg
ularly the past week at third
base since Dick Gray pulled
a thigh muscle and the "Little
Colonel" has been a factor in
the club's resurgence, helping
win last Saturday's game from
Milwaukee with two homers.
"This has been the longest
the Dodgers have been in the
cellar . since I can recall,"
Reese said. "We had to come
around. We're not that bad a
ball club."

School Extension
Proposal Studied
Salem (UPI) The State
Board of Education Thursday
referred to the Department of
Public Instruction for study a
proposal that the elementary
and high school year be ex
tended from 170 to 180 days.
The proposal was made by
a professional committee
studying school standards.
Superintendent of Public
Instruction Rex Putnam said
the matter probably would be
reported on at the September
meeting of the Board.
But Board members indi
cated that whatever action is
taken on the matter, the next
school year would not be
effected.
Cornelius Bateson, Salem,
protested to the Board on be
half of agricultural interests
that lengthening the school
year would result in contract
labor being brought into the
Willamette valley to harvest
crops. , - -
He said this would ' create
housing problems for farmers
and deprive youngsters of
valuable work experience.
Horse population of the
U. S. has dropped to three
million.
