Stengel's Scouts Watch Milwaukee By JOHN GRIFFIN Uniled Press International v New York - (LTD - Secret! espionage report from your Yankee Stadium private eye Yankee Manager Casey Sten gel already has his spies watching the Milwaukee Braves pick up World Series tips. Stengel, with an lite game lead and only 27 games left ' to play, still won't admit pub licly that his New York Yan kees have wrapped up their third straight American league pennant. But plans for the World Series, not the pen nant race, are buzzing around in his brain these days. Your secret agent can re port that Stengel already has dispatched scouts to watch the Braves with specific mis sions in mind. No Surprises He wants to know whether certain Braves' players are doing things exactly the same way they did in the 1957 ser ies. Ol' Case was caught by surprise last year by a couple of things chiefly the good -fielding of third baseman Ed die Mathews and outfielder Wes Covington and he doesn't intend to get surprised again. He wants to know all about the-Braves' players who are "unknown to him. He has heard a lot of praise about "them two young pitchers who look real good," an obvious refer ence to Carleton Willey and Joey Jay. . You can bet that these two youngsters and the rest of the Brave's pitching staff will be studied carefully by a pla- toon of Yankee scouts and that Stengel will receive a detail- SPORTS ed report on each. What a World Series man ager wants to know about the other team's pitchers in cludes not only a description of every type pitch each has to offer put specific informa tion on what each pitcher is likely to throw in certain sit uations chiefly what pitch he usually goes to in a jam. Watch For Changes The reports on batters are just as complete. The Yankees still have their 1957 reports on the Braves' batters, of course, but hitters change their pattern often between season. A batter will correct one weakness and perhaps develop a different one. The pitch that got him out last year may be his "meat" this year. Stengel, it was learned, also is very interested in the de fensive positions each Braves' player adopts against certain types of hitters. Casey ' wants "the full book" from his spies. The old man didn't much like losing the last World Series and he doesn't want it to happen again. Kr a use's Double Wrecks Hanson's No-Hit Chance United Press International Stu Hanson had a no-hitter in reach las night but Mel Krause of Eugene spoiled things. Hanson had not allowed a single hit in Wenatchee's 7-0 Northwest League victory over Eugene until Krause came up with one out in the ninth. He promptly ruined things with a double. Hanson, a former Central Washington College athlete, finished up without any more trouble for a brilliant one hitter for his ninth decision of the year. Yakima spurted for six runs in the ninth to take Tri City 7-3. The league - leaders got six markers on five hits and two errors. Salem and Lewiston split a twin bill. Salem took the opener 12-3 and Lewiston the nightcap in 12 innings 5-2. The Senators swarmed all over 22-game winner Thorn ton Kipper in the opener with a 13-hit attack. In the nightcap, Arnie Hall gren belted a homer in the 12th frame for the Lewiston victory. HORNBROOK Return From Vacation Pride Wins In Harness Contention By ED SAINSBURY Du Quoin, 111. -(UPD- A trim, brown filly with a thorough bred's heart, Emily's Pride, ranked today with the great names of harness racing. The three-year-old daugh ter of Star's Pride first trotted the fastest Hambletonian heat ever by a filly, 2:00 1-5, and then shook off the shock of banging into a rival's sulky to come back and win the 33rd Hambeltonian, harness racing's classic stake, wUh a record speed of 1:59 4-5 in the third heat. The win was not unexpect ed since previously she boast ed the best time of the field for a mile this year, 2:00 2-5, and was an even money co- favorite to win, although no pari-mutual betting was al lowed, and only friendly wag ering occurred. Class Tells But after her stellar- first heat performance, there came the opportunity to show her heart. She was moving well in the back stretch, challeng ing last year's two-year-old champion, Sharpshooter, for first place when her foot whacked into the wheel on Sharpshooter's sulky. She broke stride and finished 12th in the 14-horse field. Thais, when the field went off in the third heat, she was in the second tier. That's when the heart, and the savvy of her driver, 64-year-old Flick Nipe, told the tale of the race. He let the field settle down and in the back stretch mov ed her smartly into the mid dle of the pack, v When the way was clear ahead, with 3-8 of a mile left, Nipe moved Emily's Pride outside and she took over. Emily's Pride trotted the final quarter in :30 1-5 to win by a half-length over another filly, Sandalwood. Second Biggest Purs The victory paid Emily's Pride, owned by Castleton and Walnut Hall farms, Lex ington, Ky., the second big gest Hambletonian purse in history, S62.750. Little Rocky, owned by S. A. Camp Farm, Shatter, Calif., and a 12-1 outsider, took the second heat. But Little Rocky's best behind Emily's Speed in the third heat was fourth, and he wound up with second money of $26,146. Bob Porterfield Injury Victim St. Louis -(CPU- Bob Porter field of the Pirates has fallen victim to the injury jinx again. The Pirate pitcher was re moved from the field on a stretcher in the fourth inning of a game against the Cardin als Wednesday night when he twisted his left knee cover ing first base.
