Hoyt Wilhelm already has
made believers of American
league hitters and now the
Baltimore Orioles are trying
to do the same with the experts.
Wilhelm's 9-0 record and
astounding 0.99 earned run
average speak for themselves
and Manager Paul Richards
insists the Orioles second
place standing ought to do
the same.
"We can go all the way,"
Richards has been preaching
since the start of the season.
"We'll go as far as our pitch
ing will take us."
Well, Sunday Wilhelm's
pitching took the Orioles into
second place'via a 3-0 victory
over the Kansas City Athle
tics. The erstwhile ragamuf
fins of the league are only
one game behind the first-
place Chicago White Sox and
area half-game ahead of the
third-place Cleveland Indians
both of whom split their Sun
day doubleheadersi
White Sox Split
The White Sox scored a 9-4
victory in their opener but
lost the nightcap to the Bos
ton Red Box 4-2 and the Yan
kees bounced back from a 7-5
setback to beat the Indians,
4-3, before 59,823 at Cleve
land. The Detroit Tigers made
it 23 out of 33 under Jimmy
Dykes with a 6-4 win over the
Washington Senators. s -
In the National league, the
Milwaukee Braves increased
their first-place margin to
two games by beating the Los
Angeles Dodgers, 8-2. The
Chicago Cubs beat the Pitts
burgh Pirates, 4-2 and 1-0, the
St. Louis Cardinals downed

Out on Leonard
Los Angeles-TOPD-Fight Pro

improvement today from a
brutal beating, but had new
worries.
Larry Boardman, scheduled
to fight in the 10-round main
event Saturday night at Holly
wood Legion Stadium, pulled
out, forcing Leonard to find
a substitute match.
soardman did not give a
direct reason, said Don Fraz
ier, a spokesman for the Le

the trouble that Leonard has
had with these characters."
