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.

Conditioned hay makes better feed, too. It can be put up

Relief ace E 1 r o y Face
racked up his '11th straight
victory without a loss as the
Pirates topped the Cubs, 4-2,
in 13 innings. The Cardinals
and Phillies were not sched
uled. In the American league, the
Yankees made it three in a
row over the White Sox, 5-4,
in 10 'innings; the Red Sox
snapped the Indians' seven-
game winning streak, 7-6; the
Orioles downed the Tigers,
7-6, and the Senators beat the
Athletics, 7-5.
Three errors by second
baseman Johnny Temple
paved the way for the Giants'
victory over the- Reds. Or
lando Cepeda rapped out four
of San Francisco's 15 hits.
Face limited the Cubs to
three hits in five innings of
relief to gain credit for the
Pirates' triumph. The little
Pittsburgh righthander now
has won 16 in a row dating
back to May of 1958. Bob
Skinner singled home the tie
breaking run in the 13th in
ning and Bill Virdon's sacri
fice fly. produced the insur
ance run. '
Mickey Mantle's 10th in
ning homer off -White Sox re
liever Gerry Staley led the
Yankees to their 15th victory
in the last 20 games. It also
moved them within a game of
the fourth-place Tigers. .

then singled home the win
ning run in the eighth. Jackie
Jensen also homered for the
Red Sox while Woodie Held
and rookie pitcher Larry
Locke, making his major
league debut, hit homers for
the Tribe.
The Orioles came storming
back from a 6-1 Heficit to beat
the Tigers and climb within
2V2 games of first place. Two
run homers by Gus Triandos
and Chico Carrasquel in the
eighth narrowed Detroit's lead
to 6-5 and Carrasquel won the
game in the ninth when he
singled with the bases full for
two runs.
AI Kaline of the Tigers suf
fered a fractured cheekbone
when struck by second base
man Bill Gardner's wild
throw in the first inning.

Baltimore hospital and is ex

New Rival
Los Angeles-TOPD-The Dodg
ers, heartened by their win
ning series with Milwaukee,
tonight turn to a new foe, the
Cincinnati Reds, who have
been tough nuts for them to
crack this season.
Roger Craig, back with the
Dodgers after having achiev
ed a 6-7 record at Spokane,
was named by Manager Walt
Alston to start, while Mayo
Smith sent down word from
San Francisco that Brooks
Lawrence (3-7) was his open
ing hurler. . '
Thursday night the Dodg
ersstaged an uphill battle
that fell one run short as Mil
waukee preserved a . 7-6 vic
tory after having led 7-0 mid
way in the game.

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.

of its manager with the deed,
the Veterans Administration

Camp White is host to un

its ace hurler, Mickey Coen,
ex-Sacramento Solon, at the
Whiters. Smith indicated that
he will counter with . Jack
Brown, ex-Southern Oregon
