IS icltey Vernon Sparks Braves n 7-6 Decision Over Dodgers T MILTON RICHMAN Waited Press International Mickey Vernon used to be President Eisenhower's favor ite ball player and now Fred Haney knows why. The President said he al ways liked him when he was with Washington because Vernon always "came through with a hit when it was needed most." And the shakey Milwaukee graves never needed hitting piore than they did Thurs (ety night when a loss to Los Angeles would have dropped (fnem out of first place in the JgJftional league for the first me since May 12. ' . So Haney" inserted the 41-jer-old Vernon into Mil waukee's starting lipe-up.'v And the spindly American league castoff didn't fail him, (gither. Vernon got the first hit and scored the first run of e game in the second in king and then teed off for a (hree-run homer in the third (t pace the Braves to a 7-6 Victory over the Dodgers. The (triumph kept Milwaukee a tlf-game ahead of San Fran cesco, which beat Cincinnati, (rT Lead Endangered Del Crandall also homered lr the Braves to help build 7-0 lead which was almost dissipated when the Dodgers rallied for three runs in the (Bmrth and Duke Snider hit two-run homer in the sixth. ft a JOIIH DEERE If!

Delivered in Leadership At Stake San Franciscc-flJPD-The Na tional league leadership will be on the line tonight when the Milwaukee Braves move into town with a slim half game edge over the second place San Francisco Giants. The Giants will send Sad Sam Jones (7-6) to the hill in the opener of the crucial three-game set. Bob. Buhl (6-4) will handle the firing for Mil waukee. The Braves needed a three run homer by veteran Mickey Vernon Thursday night to hold on for a 7-6 decision over Los Angeles. A Dodger vic tory would have sent the Giants into tonight's fray with a half-game margin over the Braves. A Milwaukee loss also would have given the Giants, their initial look at first place this season. STANDINGS AMERICAN LEAGUE W. L.
