Pirate fans, long accustomed
to cellar teams, are singing
the lyrics of a song that goes
"all the way."
The winner of the National
league pennant may well be
decided next month at Forbes
field and Pirate diehards fi
gure it may not be the Mil
waukee Braves.
During September the second-place
Pirates play 23
games in Forbes field, meet
ing all seven National league
opponents. With the success
they have had so far on their
home grounds, Pirate fans are
looking for a "miracle."
"All I can say at this point
is nobody's going to attempt
to prove that'we won't go all
the way." General Manager
Joe L. Brown said.
The Pirates have played
their best ball at Forbes field
this season. They have won
16 of their last 18 games and
have a 35-22 overall record at
home.

Remember Babe Adams, the
rookie who pitched the Pitts
burgh Pirates to their first
world championship with
three victories in the 1909
World Series?
Well,' the amazing Pirates
have come up with their great
est rookie pitching hero since
Adams and it just could be
that he"ll help the Bucs "steal"
the National league pennant
from the Milwaukee Braves.
He's George Witt, a 6-foot,
3-inch right-hander from L;a
guna, Calif., who stopped the
slugging Braves on two hits
Tuesday night and pitched the
Pirates into second place five
games out of first with a 10-0
victory; It was the fourth
straight win for Witt, who has
pitched 23 consecutive score
less innings, has 'yielded one
run in his last 35 innings and
has a league-leading 1.58 earn
ed run average.
Win Six Straight
Witt, a 200-pouhd fastballer,
yielded only one "legitimate"
j hit a ninth-inning double by
rianK Aaron. The oiher Mil
waukee hit was a fluke second-inning
double which left-
fielder Bob Skinner lost in the
Forbes Field lights. Except for
that fluke hit, Witt would
have entered the ninth with
a chance to pitch the first no-
hitter in the 49-year history
of Forbes Field.
A crowd of 36,867 saw the
Pirates take a 2-0 lead in the
sixth inning and then humil
iate the world champions with
a riotous eight-run rally in the
eighth that marked the Bucs'
biggest inning of the year.
The Pirates, with six straight
victories and 16 wins in their
last 18 games at home, now
start a 15-game road trip
which Manager Danny Mur
taugh says will "make or
break" them as a contender.
The St. Louis Cardinals
beat the San Francisco Giants,
7-3, and dropped them into
third place, the Chicago Cubs
walloped the Los Angeles
Dodgers, 9-3, and the Cincin
nati Redlegs crushed the Phil
adelphia Phillies, 12-4, in the
other National league games.
Mantle Homers
In the American league,
Mickey Mantle's 33rd homer
helped the New York Yankees
beat the Baltimore Orioles,
7-2, the Chicago White Sox
topped the Cleveland Indians,
4-1, and the Detroit Tigers
edged the Kansas City A's,
7-6. Boston at Washington was
rained out.
. Frank Thomas' two-run
homer snapped a scoreless tie
in the Milwaukee-Pittsburgh
sixth and the Pirates then sent
12 men to the plate in the riot
ous eighth. Bob Skinner
weighed in with a two-run
triple and Bill Mazeroski, who
is hitting .524 in the Pirates'
six-game streak, had three hits
for the second straight night.
Sam Jones pitched a six-hitter
to win his 10th game for
the Cardinals. Willie Mays
again went hitless for the

Los Angeles (UPD
Rangy, brow n-haired Bill
Wade quarterback and
prayer leader of the Los An
geles Rams will get his
first official test as "man in
charge" Saturday night when
the Rams play the Washing
ton Redskins at the Coliseum
in a charity exhibition game.
Some 80,000 are expected
for the contest in which
Wade, a modern-trend "run
ning" quarterback, will be
No. 1 field general for the
first time since Norm Van
Brocklin was traded to Phila
delphia.
His performance may in
dicate whether the Rams can
hope to win the National
Football league championship
this year and surpass the club
attendance record of 1,051,106
set last season.
Must Run and Pass
Coach Sid Gillman, in his
fourth season with the Rams,
believes they may go beyond
1,500,000 if they can get and
hold a lead; for they general
ly are admitted the most
colorful outfit in the circuit.
Wade's rise is an example
of how the Rams try persist
ently to keep a step ahead of
Giants and took a third strike
with two runners on for the
final out of the game. -
Jim Bolger tripled with the
bases filled in a five-run third
inning and Lee Walls hit two
homers as the Cubs rocked
Dodger pitchers for 14 hits.
Dick Drott went the distance
for his fifth win.
Wins First Game
Tom Acker finally won his
first game of the season for
the Redlegs behind a 13-hit at
tack that featured Bob Thur
man's three-run double in a
six-run sixth inning uprising.
Mantle, whose homer gave
him the American league lead
in that department, also had a
double and a single. Gil Mc
Dougald also homered for the
Yankees while Bob Nieman
homered both Baltimore run's
in the seventh.
Early Wynn pitched a five-
hitter to win his 10th game of
the year and the 245th of his
career, im Landis paced the
White Sox' attack with two
hits and drove in three runs.
Gail Harris' two-run sev
enth inning homer won a 24
hit slugfest for the Tigers over
the Athletics. Reno Bertoia
and Barry Chiti also homered
in a game in which nine pitch
ers appeared.

the opposition in moving men
up, and in using players ap
parently "made'' for a parti
cular position.
The position of quarterback
in the league today demands
a player with terrific running
speed as well as passing
ability. He must be able to
put on running bursts at in
tervals when required. That
combination is an essential
now under the standard "T"
formation used in the circuit,.
The split "T" is praetically
obsolete in the league be
cause no quarterback could
long survive the pounding he
would receive from 250
pounders if he ran with any
regularity.
Leads Team in Prayer
Wade, 26 a bonus pick
from Vanderbilt in 1952 is
a quaterback of the latpst
trend, whose running poten
tial along with his passing
makes him a threat that pre
vents defensive ends or line
backers from plunging in too
recklessly.
Wade, in armed service in
1952 and 1953, "joined the
Rams in '54. At that time Van
Brocklin was at his peak and
the waning Bob Waterfield
was still capable. Bill didn't
get much chance to play reg
ularly and he never had the
attention-c r e a t i n g respon
sibility of being "the man in
charge."
Bill not only is the field
general now but he also leads
the squad in prayer when it
gathers in a circle about him
before the start of each game.
He kneels on the turf and his
standing mates pray with him.

Oceanside, Calif. (I'PD
Heavyweight champion Floyd
Patterson appears "sloppy" in
his sparring sessions at this
southern California beach re
sort and shopping center.
Floyd, 23, is either off form
from boredom with long train
ing or he's acting to help the
gate for Monday's title de
fense against unbeaten Roy
Harris at Wrigley Field in
Los Angeles.
He never tried acting be
fore. "Wiih two more boxing
workouts I'm sure I'll be
sharp for the fight," he told
sportswriters today. "I do feel
a bit slow, but I'm getting
faster."
Manager Gus D'Amato ad
mitled "Yes, Floyd's had pre
vious spells when he didn't
appear sharp, but never like
this before at a late stage in
training."
Change Surprises
Several New York sports
writers, who had witnessed
Patterson's last impressive
workout at Monticello, N. Y.,
three weeks ago and then saw
him for the first time in the
West Tuesday, were surprised
at the change in his showing.
True, he was using two
speedy San Francisco light
heavyweights during Tues
day's four rounds at the Com
munity Center. But he had
worked with good sparmates
in the East, too.
Lanky Sisto Rodriguez, who
has a stand-up jabbing and
hooking style similar to that
of Harris, made the champion
appear sloppy in their two
rounds. Moreover, he landed
several "sneaker" rights on
Floyd's face rights like those
Harris is grooming.
And in his two frame's with
shorter Frank McCoy the
champ missed many hooks
and resorted to his old-time
leaping "gazelle punch," as he
tried to spear McCoy with
flying rights and lefts. When
he finished the workout, there
was a lump on the right side
of Floyd's face.

Phoenix moved back into a
three-game lead in the Pacific
Coast league campaign today
after shading second - place
Vancouver, 2-1, in an argument-filled
contest in the Ca
nadian city.
The Giants pushed across
the deciding tally in the sev
enth inning when Jim Finigan
came in from third, missed
the plate according to the
Mounties, then was ruled safe
by umpire Chris Pelehoudas
after a belated tag by catcher
Charlie White.
Finigan had gotten on base
via a free pass when Pelehou
das ruled that losing hurler
Erv Palica quick-pitched him.
With two out, Jack Dittmer
and Dusty Rhodes followed
with infield singles, sending
Finigan home with the win
ning run and setting the stage
for a lengthy argument be
tween the Mounties and Pele
houdas. That win gave the Giants a
2-1 series lead and shaved
Vancouver's margin over
third-place San Diego to a half
game.
The Padres pushed across
single runs in the last two in
nings against Seattle to take
a 3-2 decision.
