Ralph Terry Appears Answer
To NY Problem; Beats Orioles
By MILTON RICHMAN
United Press International
Don't just stand there, do
something - and now that
Ralph Terry finally has,
Casey Stengel is convinced
things are looking up for the
Yankees.
"I gotta find me another
pitcher before we can get
back up there again,". Casey
has been saying all along.
Stengel never mentioned
any names but the implication-was
plain he was wait
ing on Terry, who was obtain
ed from Kansas City on May
26.
The' skinny, 23-year-old
righthander certainly looked
like the answer to Casey's
problem Wednesday night
when he pitched a four-hitter
struck out six and walked
only one in a 4-0 victory over
Baltimore. 1
That victory was only the
first for Terry since coming
from the A's, but it moved
the Yankees into third place,
only three games off the
pace, and dropped the Or
ioles into fifth. place after
they had occupied a first-division
berth for 70 consecu
tive days.
Two Yanks Homer
Norm Siebern nad Gil Mc
Dougal each homered as Skin
ny Brown suffered his third
loss of the season and the
Orioles their fourth in a row.
The second-place White Sox
shaved Cleveland's lead to
one game with a 6-5 victory
over the Indians; Washington
beat Boston, 4-1; and Detroit
defeated Kansas City, 5-4.
In the National league,
Philadelphia nipped Pitts
burgh, 1-0, and Chicago mov
ed within a half-game of
fourth place with a 6-5 decis
ion over St. Louis. Rain post
. poned the only other sched
uled game between Milwau
kee and Cincinnati.
Turk Lown had to put
down a ninth-innig rally by
the Indians to save the White
Sox victory. Lown retired the
side in order, after Woodie
Held's two-run horner in the
ninth off Gerry Staley had
v drawn the Tribe within a run
T of the White Sox. Starter Bar
ry Latman was credited with
his second victory. Tito Fran-
cona and Earl Torgeson also
homered. Jim Mudcat Grant
was the loser.
Pascual Wins Seventh
Camilo Pascual paced the
Senators to their third
straight victory with a four
hitter over the reeling Red
Sox, who lost their fourth in
a row and their sixth game
in the last seven. Washington
scored all of its runs off
Jerry Casale, including a
three-run rally in the seventh.
It was Pascual's seventh vic
tory against the same number
of losses.
Detroit starter Paul Foy-
tack had a one-hitter until the
eighth against Kansas City
but then required Ray Nar
leski's aid in the ninth after
tagged for homers by Kent
Hadley and Bob Cerv.
Gene Conley out-pitched
Ronnie Kline in the Phils'
triumph over the Pirates. Con
ley hurled a five-hitter and
struck out eight in bringing
his record to 6-4.. The Phillies
scored the only run of the
game with two out in the
third inning when Joe Koppe
walked, stole second and came
around on Richie Ashburn's
single. Kline suffered his
sixth loss against six vic
tories. Bobby Thomson's ninth-inning
single scored Ernie
Banks from second base with
the run that gave the Cubs
their" victory over the Cards.
Thomson came through with
his game-winning hit off re
liever Lindy McDaniel, who
was tagged with his ninth loss
against six victories. St. Louis
had a 5-1 lead until Chicago
tied the score with a four
run rally in the eighth to
chase starter Ernie Broglio.
Don Elston, the Cubs' third
pitcher, won his fifth game
in six decisions.

Portland - (UPD - Champion
Don Jordan and challenger
Denny Moyer of Portland
sharpened their timing and
stiffened their punches
Wednesday as they honed into
shape for their welterweight
title fight at Portland Mead
ows here July 10. "
Young Moyer's stock was
given a boost Wednesday
when Ring Magazine listed
him second among the world's
welterweights. Previously
Moyer had been ranked fifth.
He hopes the 15-round title
fight at Portland Meadows
will make him the No. 1
welter.
But Jordan, training to a
fine point at his Blue Lake
Park quarters at the northeast
edge of Portland, gave ample
indication that he intends to
keep the No. 1 welter spot for
himself.
Sid Flaherty, Moyer's man
ager, after watching Denny
go six sharp rounds against
sparring partners, observed:
"He's '. getting there." Fla
herty predicted a victory for
his protege.
But the odds still favored
Jordan, 4 to 1. Jordan was
reported so well along in con
ditioning for the fight,that he
confined his work Wednesday
to early morning running,
then punching the bag and
shadow boxing.
The title fight will be na
tionally televised.
