The "icemen" from Mil waukee just about eliminated the Giants from the pennant race during their latest hop to Salt Lake To Harass By GENE BRYANT United Press International Salt Lake City isn't going anywhere in the Pacific Coast league race this year but the unpredictable Bees have done their best to see to it that Phoenix doesn't either. The Utah club handed the Giants their fifth straight loss Thursday night, 6-4, to sweep the four-game series with the league leaders.

Pads-Mounlies Rained Out The scheduled San Diego Vancouver contest was rained out at the Canadian city. The third place Mounties also gained a half game on Phoe nix and are now only three games out of first. Sacramento shaded Port land, 2-1 and Seattle buried Spokane under a 16-hit at tack for a 10-2 win in other games. The resurgent Bees, who dropped out of flag conten tion during a disastrous los ing string earlier this month, pushed across a pair of runs in the bottom of the seventh to break a 4-4 deadlock and go on to victory. The Hive had opened the scoring with a four-run burst in the sec ond, but the Giants came back with single runs in the third and fourth frames, then knotted it on Bill Wil son's two-run homer in the top of the seventh. Don Kildoo, with help from Eddie O'Brien in the ninth, gave up seven hits to post the win. Joe Shipley, who also gave up only seven safeties, went the distance for Phoenix to lose his first game of the year.

SPQRTS Williams Turns 40 On Saturday BY BOB SALMON Boston -GJPD Ted Williams, one of baseball's greatest slug gers, turns 40 Saturday. He's still hitting like a 25-year-old and at times still acting like a 10-year-old. However, the tempera mental Boston Red Sox star has begun showing some signs cf age. True, he is currently making' a bid for his sixth American league batting title. He's just a few percentage points off the pace with a .315 average. He's whacked 21 homers this season, with a month to go. And he's still a fearsome sight at the plate, his tanned, muscular arms holding the bat as if it were a swizzle stick. But Ted ain't what he used to be. A good many of his hits this season have lacked the old zing he was noted for. He has hit and attempted to hit to left field, against the over shifted, infield, more often than ever before. And his bat ting mark, though plenty healthy, is far below his .350 lifetime average. What about Williams' fu ture as he heads into his fifth decade? First of all, he'll undoubt edly be back next season. He hasn't said so in as many words, but sTed has stated often that his last big target is still 500 home runs. Only three players in his tory have ever topped the 500 figure. Babe Ruth leads with a fantastic 714, Jimmie Foxx clouted 534, and Mel Ott still leads the National League with 511. Even Lou Gehrig missed, collecting 494 during his career with the New York Yankees. Williams is fifth man in the standings with 477. Discovery Life Taken Because Of Long Illness Baltimore (UPD With the death of Discovery, Native Dancer took over today as the No. 1 sire at Alfred Vander bilt's Sagamore- Farm.

Purchased for $25,000 by Vanderbilt as a two-year-old in 1933, Discovery set two world records during his racing career.
