The Dodgers, who marched down the cellar stairs to the basement last May 12, are trailing league-leading . Mil waukee by eight games. They are a haif game back of seventh-placed Philadelphia. Two of Drysdale's victories this season have been over the Phils but he has a lifetime record of 5-6 against them. Big Steven Bilko and pitch er Johnny Klippstein, ac quired in a trade of Don Newcombe to Cincinnati Sun day night, were scheduled to join the Dodgers tonight. But it was not certain that Bilko, a popular player on the West Coast and a leading home run hitter in the Pacific Coast league in, 1955, 1956, and 1957, would start at first base. Manager Walt Alston benched veteran first sacker Gil Hodges after Sunday's game with Pittsburgh in the Coliseum, won by the Pirates 12-1, in hopes a rest would snap him out of a batting slump. However, it was reported today that Alston was plan ning to give Hodges another game to find his hitting eye. Little Don Zimmer, the Dodgers' sparkling shortstop, was still nursing a pulled muscle and was a doubtful starter. Pee Wee Reese was expected to move into Zim mer's spot, moving Charley Neal back to second base. Clem Labine, assigned start ing duties after Newcombe was traded, was the probable starter for Wednesday night's game. The Dodgers, despite a dis mal season, have drawn 994, 8Q3 fans in 33 home games this year. Gonzales, Rosewall Unbeaten Forest Hills, N.Y. UPI) Defending champion Pancho Gonzales of Los Angeles and Australia's Ken Rosewall, the last unbeaten players in the field, bid for their third straight victories tonight in Jack0 Kramer's 15,000 round robin pro tennis champion ship. Gonzales was a strong fa vorite against last-place Rex Hartwig of Australia but Rosewall faces a toughie in Frank Sedgman, another Aus sie, who lost his only match to rookie pro Lew Hoad. Hoad was knocked off.him helf Monday night by twice beaten Tony Trabert of Cin cinnati, 2-6. 6-3, 6-2, and dropped to third place with a 2-1 record. Rosewall trimmed Pancho Segura of Ecuador, 4-6, 6-1, 6-1 for his first place tie with Gonzales in a field of seven top professionals. UKSENCEBURG. INDIANA. BLENDED WHISKEY. BS PROOF.

Weill goes before the Cal ifornia state Athletic commis sion to present a formal appli cation for a promoter's li cense, braving the hard stares of those he calls the "jealous" local promoters. Weill said he will post the required bond for the pro jected Aug. 4 fight between Patterson and the lad from the Texas town of Cut and Shoot. Signed contracts of both fighters, he said, will also be deposited with the commis sion. Due To Attend Harris and his manager, Lou Viscusi, were due to at tend the meeting. Before leaving Houston Monday night, Vicusi said he and his fighter who is just out of the Army, are hopeful of overcoming local opposition to the bout. Local fights which could be affected by the heavyweight At Los Angeles Coliseum Los Angeles (UPI) Pre dictions of the experts that the home run hitting pace at the Coliseum, home of the Dodgers, would drop off as the season progressed were con firmed today by statistics on the club's second home stand. During the Dodgers' first lengthy home stand of 21 games, broken only by a three day jaunt to San Francisco, 63 home runs were hit for an average of three a game.

The Giants still hold second place, just a game and a half behind the league-leading Mil waukee Braves, but they wilt ed slightly after winning 13 and losing 8 on their first trip away from home. Manager Bill Rigney's boys returned home as conquering heroes only to lose 9 of 14 games before the hometown fans. Anlonelli to Pitch Flashy lefthander Johnny Antonelli will take the mound tonight in an effort to get the Giants off to a good start. He will face Curt Raydon, who had a hand in Pittsburgh's three game sweep over the Giants recently in San Fran cisco. The last time the two teams met in Pittsburgh, a bean-ball incident nearly led to a bat swinging free-for-all so the Giants can expect nothing but bout include the Pete Rade-macher-Zora Folley fight scheduled for July 24; and the Carmen Basilio-Art Aragon fight : scheduled for late Au gust.
