Purkey limited the Braves to seven hits and did not walk a batter in scoring his fourth victory. Frank Robinson doubled home Johnny Temple in the sixth inning for the first run of the game and the Reds added two more in the eighth, one on a homer by Roy McMillan. Spahn, who started this season with a 50-15 advan tage over the Reds, now stands 3-4 with the league for the season. This marked the first time since the 1957 season that the Reds have oc cupied first place. Wally Moon, hitless in his first five tries, singled in the 11th inning to give the Los Angeles Dodgers a 6-5 victory over the San Francisco Giants. Clem Labine, who pitched the last two innings, won his first game against the Giants since the 1955 season. Duke Snider and Norm Larker homered for the Dodgers.

Stitch Hits Pace To Win Upset Bout Syracuse, N.Y. -(DPD-Rudell Stitch, upset winner over fifth - ranking welterweight Gaspar Ortega, and a hero as well, said today his easy vic tory in the return match was all a matter of proper pacing. "The first time I fought Ortega I didn't pace myself. But last night I kept things nice and even and didn't have any trouble at all," the Louis ville, Ky., church elder said. Stitch, in addition to scor ing his impressive win in the televised bout, was honored Friday night by the Carnegie Hero Fund commission for rescuing a drowning man in the Ohio river. Starts Early Stitch started off early to avenge the narrow loss he suf fered at Ortega's hands and opened a cut over the Indian's left eye in the first round. Using a solid right jab, the stylish Stitch pounded away at the eye. In the , third round Stitch sent Ortega reeling into the ropes with a solid right to the y head and then worked savagely on Ortega's body and head. The fight, which ended with the 1,400 fans cheering the last minute for Stitch's able performance, nearly came to an earlier end when Stitch re-opened Ortega's cut. It was bleeding badly enough to have referee Joe Palmer ask a state athletic commis sion doctor look it over after the eighth round. Palmer rated the fight 6-2-2; Judge Harold McGrath 5-4-1 and Judge Dick Albino 6-3-1, all for Stitch. The public debt of the Unit ed States in 1816 amounted to $15 per person. r.

Killebrew rapped homer No. 9 off starter and loser Bob Turley even before most of the customers in Yankee sta dium had settled down in their seats to give the Senators a 1-0 lead in the top of the first inning. The husky third baseman banged No. 10, tops in the American league, off reliever Johnny Kucks with two mates aboard in the eigth inning. This marked the third time in eight days that Killebrew hit two home runs in a single game. Meanwhile, Hal Griggs, who won three of 14 decisions last year, set the Yanks down on two hits to gain his second victory of 1959 against no losses! Turley, a 22-game win ner last year, now is 2-4. While the Yankees con tinued stumbling along the lower depths of the league, the Chicago White Sox snap ped a five-game losing streak, beating the league leading Cleveland Indians, 9-5. The White Sox drove Herb Score from the mound in the second inning and then con tinued their assault against two relievers. Nellie Fox, who had. two hits in four times up, stretched his consecutive game hitting streak to 14. The Detroit Tigers made it six victories in seven games for . new manager Jimmie Dykes, sinking the Kansas City Athletics. 7-4. Jim Bun ning survived a shaky start to post his second straight vic tory after losing all three of his first 1959 starts. The A's staked Bob Grimm to a 3-0 lead, but the Tigers tied it with three in the second and added four more in the third to give Bunning all the margin he needed. Sore-armed Billy Loes came to knuckleballer Hoyt Wil helm's rescue in the ninth in ning to preserve a 4-3 victory for the Baltimore Orioles over the Boston Red Sox. Loes, making his fifth suc cessful rescue job in six games this year, came on in the ninth to snuff out a budding Boston rally and preserve Wilhelm's fourth victory. Billy Hoeft, making his debut with Boston, was charged with the loss. LINESCORES American League Boston 100 001 100 3 10 2 Baltimore 400 000 OOx 4 6 0 Hoeft, Monbouquette (7) and White;, Wilhelm.

Harry Truman Celebrates 75th New York - (UPD - Harry Truman celebrated his 75th birthday Friday with 50, 000 of his admirers at parties in 17 cities connected by clos ed circuit television. It was a sentimental affair at times and the former presi dent was near tears at the end, but he provided his own comic relief with the Truman touch of trying to cut the wooden interior of a - huge birthday cake. i It was also a highly parti san affair, with not a Republi can in sight, and Truman got his biggest laughs about Clare Boothe Luce and Sen. Wayne Morse, Vice President Rich ard Nixon and Gen. Douglas MacArthur. Klamath Deputies Seeking Escapee Klamath Falls -(UPD- Klam ath county sheriffs, deputies were searching for a 23-year-old escapee from the county jail yesterday. Officers said that Paule Ger ome Parazoo, Yakima, Wash., escaped Friday when he ap parently slipped out the side door of a local dentist's office while an escorting policeman waited outside as dental work was done. Parazoo was serving a term not longer than three months for breaking a grocery store wiadow in February. Police said he was one of three men captured in Bend the day fol lowing the burglary attempt.

Considerable quantities of school furniture and several boats were- believed to have been destroyed by the fire. Firemen said it was not yet possible to make an accurate estimate of the damage. Slim Hope Held For Iraq's Future Washington -(UPD- American officials harbored only slim hope yesterday tht Iraq Pre mier Abdul Karim Kassim can keep his Middle East nation out of control of the Commu nists. ' . This is the gist of what U.S. Ambassador John Gernegan has told officials since his re turn for consultation recently from his post in Iraq. A qualified source described the U.S. position as frustrat ing to say the least because it is believed this country can do so little to influence the course of events without doing more harm than good. In tense anti-western feeling, vig orously fanned by the Reds, makes it difficult if not dan gerous to interfere in any way, the source added. The showdown between Kassim and the Reds is ex pected when either Kassim de cides he does not need or want Red support or when the Com munists decide they can force him to turn over effective con trol of the government to them. The U.S. position is to encourage Kassim to become a strong and independent lead er. . The Po is the longest river in Italy and extends 417 miles.
