?! The Milwaukee Braves Na
tionol ltfgue rivals better get
Sk a mov on before they're in
J the sam bot as the "sorry
w seven" who are chasing the
New York Yankees in the
f American league,
jte There's no longer any doubt
3 about it the Braves are mak
?j ing a "big move" and may
jj jbe ,in the process of building
fait insurmountable lead. Their
S'i-game lead after Tuesday
night's 2-1 victory over the
San Francisco Giants is their
fattest margin of the year and
it's in sharp contrast to their
fourth-place position of a year
ago when they eventually won
by eight games.
In two weeks since June 10
the Braves have won eight of
12 games, a relatively modest
drive, but enough to gain at
least two games on every rival
except the St. Louis Cardinals
The Cardinals, 8-5 over the
same period, have lost only a
half game to the Braves and
Tuesday night beat the Pitts
burgh Pirates, 2-1, for their
fourth win in a row.
Giants Drop to 3rd
Warren Spahn whft hadn't
vwn a game since May 31,
pitched a three-hitter Tuesday
night to shade Stu Miller in a
battle decided by homers. Ed
Mathews and Joe Adcock belt-
ed homers for the Braves and
Felipe Alou hit one for the
fading Giants, who have lost
17 of their last 24 games to
drop into third place
Despite Spahn's June slump,
he too is ahead of his pace of
last season when he won 21
eames and the Cy Young
. award as pitcher of the year,
The 37-year-old left-hander
stands -4 this year compared
to 7-5 on June 25, 1957
Pittsburgh's Ron Kline had
the Cardinals shut out until
the ninth when Gene Green
walked and Curt Flood fol-
lowed with 400-foot homer.
Relief pitcher Phil Paine re
ceived credit for his fourth
in without a loss while Ron
BJi fuffered his eighth loss
gjpinst even victories.

activity.
Eight Sasies Ahead
The Yankees bounced back
into the win column and in
creased their American league
lead to eight games when they
whipped the Chicago White
Sox,- 6-2: The Detroit Tigers
downed the Baltimore Ori
oles, 5-0, the Boston Red Sox
rallied to edge out the Cleve
land Hidians, 4-3, and the
Kagsas City A's and Washing
ton Senators played a 2-2 te
in other AL games.
Catcher Sammy Taylor's
two-run homer was the big
blow for the Cubs as Briggs
struck out six and walked
four in recording his first big
league win. The loser was
Jack Sanford, NL rookie of
the year in 1957 who now
stands 5-6 for this season.

Phoenix Takes Over
Lead Again in PCL
By GENE BRYANT
United Press International
The Phoenix Giants made it
back into first place in the Pa
cific Coast league standings to
day thanks to the San Diego
Padres and the Giants re
markable affinity for the
home run.
While the Padres stopped
Vancouver, 3-2, Tuesday night,
dropping the Mounties into
second place, the Giants ex
ploded for seven home runs,
three by shortstop Andre
Rodger, to outlast Spokane,
12-9, and move ahead of the
pack for the first time in
several weeks. The seven four
baggers marked a PCL high
for the season.
The hard-hitting Arizonans
are now a full game in front
of Vancouver. San Diego trails
the Munties by only a half
game.
Camp White
To Engage
Butte Falls
Camp White Clyde Smith
will be on the hill for Camp
White this evening when the
Veterans Administration dom
iciliary - sponsored semi - pro
nine meets Butte Falls at Me
morial stadium here.
First pitch is planned for
8 p.m.
Both clubs are members of
the Rogue Valley league but
tonight's ruckus is a non
looper. Butte Falls took an
early season win from Camp
White, but the Whiters have
come, out on top against the
mountain team since them.
The Camp White-Chiloquin
game for Friday evening at
the VA diamond is definite, it
was reported today.
Calhoun, Boyd
Battle Tonight
Chicago (UPI) Rory
Calhoun and Bobby Boyd, the
National Boxing association's
7th and 8th ranked middle
weights, tangle before the TV
cameras tonight with the win
ner perhaps climbing a little
closer to a title bout.
It will be a return match.
Calhoun knocked out Boyd in
two rounds last Nov. 22, but
Boyd, who has had 20 more
bouts than his opponent,
vowed that such "a lucky
punch" wouldn't h a p p e ri
again.
The fight was rated nearly
even by the odds-makers. It
appeared that if it goes the
spheduled JL0 rounds, . Boyd
will have an edge, but Cal
houn has the power to put
over a quick finish again.
Langer GOP Winner
In Norih Dakota
Bismarck, N. D. (UPI)
Veteran Republican Sen. WilT
liam Langer, overcoming lack
of organization support and
charges he was "weak and
sickly," today won the GOP
nomination to a fourth term
in North Dakota's primary
election.
The win in Tuesday's ballot
ing climaxed an uphill drive
by the 71 -year-old "maverick"
senator, who scored by an im
pressive margin over his chief
rival, Lt. Gov. Clyde Duffy.
A United Press Internation
al tabulation from 736 of the
state's 2,325 precincts showed
21,207 votes for Langer to
13,669 for Duffy, who had
the backing of the state's GOP
organization. A third candi
date, A. L. Monroe, trailed
with 311.

I Three Homers
The Salt Lake-Portland and
sacramento - Seattle contests
were rained out, leaving most
of the action where it usually
is anyway at Phoenix.
Apparently not bothered in
the least by the weekly exo
dus of Phoenix players to the
parent San Francisco club, the
Giants tore into Spokane ace
Dick Hanlon for three homers
and seven runs in the first in
ning. The Indians, paced by
outfielder Bob Jenkins' three
run double in the fourth and
grand-slam homer in the sixth,
knotted the count at 9-9 after
six innings of play. But the
Giants came back with two
runs in the seventh and an
other in the eighth for the vic
tory. Padres Climb
Rodgers' four-masters, all
solo shots, came in the first,
fourth and sixth innings. He
also had a single. Sal Taor
mina, Joe Margoneri, Joe
Margoneri, Joe Amalfitano
and Tom Haller had a homer
apiece for the Giants.
Gordon Jones, who turned
in a brilliant four-inning re
lief job, got the victory, his
seventh against six losses. Pat
Patrick was charged with the
defeat, his fourth against three
wins.
The Vancouver-San Diego
contest was a tight pitching
duel between the Mounties'
George Bamberger and Bill
Werle of the Padres. The Pads
took a 1-0 lead in the second
frame and added a pair of
runs in the eighth to give
Werle his seventh win against
two losses.
Vancouver rallied for single
runs in the eighth and ninth,
including a solo homer by
Johnny Jorgensen, but re
liever Dick . Brodowski came
in to retire the last two
Mountie batters. The defeat
was Bamberger's fifth against
six wins.

Backyard Pools
May Reach 200,000
Chicago (UPI) An Amer
ican Society of Planning Offi
cials report on backyard
swimming pools in the United
States indicates that the num
ber may hit 200,000 this year,
nearly 50 times as many as
there were in 1947. '
Communities have been
quick to respond to lie sud
den growth of the number of
pools by issuing ordinances
regulating the noise, glare of
lights and danger to children.
Many cities now prohibit
pools in front yards, require
pools and pool regulation
equipment to be set back from
property lines, control drain
age, require fenpes and occa
sionally require the consent of
neighbors before the pools
can be built.
Most Accused Not
Able To Hire Aid
. Chicago (UPI) More than
half the persons accused of
crimes in the Untied States
cannot afford legal aid, and
less than half the states as
sure them of counsel in non
capital cases, according to a
recent American Judicial So
ciety report.
aeven states have no pro
vision for appointing lawyers
for the poor except in capital
cases, the reporter said.
In nine other states the
court can decide whether to
appoint counsel or not, and in
10 others the ourt must ap
point counsel if the defendant
requests it but there is no pro
vision stating the defendant
must be told he has the right
to make such a request.
The report said that when
the court is not allowed to
pay reasonable fees for legal
services a small percentage
of lawyers practicing crimi
nal law carries the burden of
defending those who cannot
pay.
Seventy-one cities have pub
lic defender systems which
provide for counsel for per
sons unable to pay.
