GUcDsvit Pitches Eighth Victory
As lodgers Approach Top Place
Br MILTON RICHMAN
United Press International
Altra-cautious Walt Alston
simply refuses to talk about a
possible pennant but a lot of
his Los Angeles Dodgers are
starting to think along those
lines all because of Irish
Danny McDevitt.
The Dodgers have won
eight of their last 10 games
and now are only a half-game
' hehind the first-Dlace Mil
waukee Braves.
No pitcher on the club has
made a greater contribution
in the current climb than Mc
Devitt. who has won five
straight games and a total of
eight for the season.
Sent back down to the
minors last year because he
failed to win, McDevitt has all
but wiped out that bad mem
ory this season. He boosted
the Dodgers to the thre-'iold
of the National league- lead
Thursday night when he
blanked the St Louis Card
inals, 4-0.
McDevitt gave up 10 hits
but was superb in the clutch
giving up only one, walk and
forcing the Cards to hit into
four double plays.
Back-to-back triples by Jun
ior Gilliam and Charlie Neal
in the third inning off loser
Dick Ricketts provided Mc
Devitt with the only run he
needed. The Dodgers picked
up two insurance runs in the
seventh and another in the
eighth.
Fan Fights Umpire
The game was enlivened in
the seventh inning when a fan
jumped out of the stands and
battled Umpire Bill Jackow-
ski after the arbiter had
ejected St. Louis Manager
Solly Hemus. Players on both
sides rushed into the fray and
broke ud the fight before
much damage was done.
In other NL games, Pitts
burgh scored a 10-mning 4-3
triumph over Milwaukee; Chi
cago swamped San Francisco,
10-4, and Cincinnati won the
nightcap of a twi-night twin-
bill from Philadelphia, 8-4,
after the Phils took the open
er, 7-6.
Kansas City defeated Cleve
land, 6-4, and the White Sox
missed a chance to move into
a tie for iirst place in the
American league by dropping
a 9-7 decision to the Tigers.
The Orioles climbed back into
the first division by defeat
ing the Yankees, 3-1, and the
Senators handed the Red Sox
their fifth straight loss, 6-3,
in 10 innings.
Dick Groat's 10th inning
single with the bases loaded
off loser Don McMahon paced
the Pirates to their victory
over the Braves. Milwaukee
made Pittsburgh's job easier
by committing four errors,
two of which came in the
10th. Vera Law went the dis
tance for the Pirates, allow
ing seven hits and winding up
with his ninth victory against
five defeats.
Homers Beat Giants .
Ernie Banks, Dale Long and
Alvin Dark all hit homers
for the Cubs against the
Giants, who also remained a
half-game behind the Braves.
Banks' homer, his 22nd of the
season, came with two men
on base. Reliever Don Elston
held the Giants hitless over
the last 3 13 innings to pre
serve Glen Hobbie's ninth vic
tory. Rookie Eddie Fisher was
the loser.
A grand-slam homer by
Gene Freese and Dick Far
rell's fine relief pitching
helped the Phils to their open
ing game victory over , the
Reds. Freeze connected off
loser Jim Brosnan in a five
run third inning and Farrell
came in to snuff out a four
run Cincinnati rally in the
eighth. Don Cardwell, who
struck out 12, was credited
with his second victory.,
Don Newcombe registered
his eighth straight triumph
and ninth of the season with a
six-hitter in the nightcap.
Newcombe also contributed a
homer as Ruben Gomez suf
fered his sixth loss against
only one victory.
Four errors, two of them
by loser Gary Bell, played a
big part ui Kansas City's vic
tory over Cleveland. Joe De
Maestri hit a two-run homer
to put the A's ahead 3-1 in
the fourth. Bill Tuttle then
drove in another run with a
triple in the fifth and scored
himself on Jim Baxes' error.
Ray Herbert "gained his fifth
victory. Woodie Held hom
ered for Cleveland.
Hits Grand Slam
Charley Maxwell's grand
slam homer off reliever Turk
Lown in the eighth inning
gave the Tigers their margin
of victory over the second
place White Sox. Maxwell's
18th homer put Detroit ahead,
9-2, and the Tigers needed
that bulge when Al Smith
hit a homer with the bases
full for the White Sox in the
ninth. Neil Chrisley of De
troit also homered with one
on.
Don Mossi posted bis
seventh victory and Bob Shaw
was charged with his third
setback. . i
Rookie Jerry Walker of the
Orioles struck out 10 Yankees
and held them to six hits in
winning his sixth game. The
only run he allowed was Hec
tor Lopez' thirteenth homer
in the fifth inning. Bob Nie
man hit his ninth homer with
one on in the first inning to
give Baltimore a lead it never
lost. Don Larson, who had

Fred Hatfield tagged a 340-
foot, blooper that struck the
three-inch width of the top of
the left field fence and
bounced over for a home run
that gave Spokane a 2-1 Pa
cific Coast league win over
Portland Thursday night.
Hatfields freak hit came
in the ninth inning and broke
up a 1-1 ball game that saw
Portland's only run come in
the second inning on another
home run over the same fence
by Bob Di Pietro.
Spokane s first tally was
two innings later and scored
with the helD of a sizzling
rtriple by newcomer Frank
Howard that ricocheted 150
feet in the air off the center-
field fence.
The blow by the former
Texas League standout easily
scored Chuck Essegian, who
was on second base after he
clobbered a Tom Gorman fast
ball 411 feet off the same wall
for a double.

You'd have thought it was
Dizzy Dean, Walter Johnson,
Lefty Grove, Bob Feller and
a whole pack of pitching
greats serving them up in the
Pacific Coast league Thurs
day night.
In four games the hurlers
gave up nine runs to easily
make it one of the pitching
professions finest hours.
Here's a rundown on the
performanes,-
-Vancouver's ancient Joe
Hatten, 42, fired a one-hit, 1-0
win over Seattle. His oppon
ent, 22-year-old Jay Hook,
gave up only two hits.
-Salt Lake's Lick Hall tos
sed his sixth shoutout of the
campaign as the Bees stopped
league leading Sacramento,
1-0. Hall gave up only three
hits. Solon hurler, Roger Os
enbaugh, allowed four bingles
in absorbing the defeat.
-Connie Grob of Spokane
pitched a five hitter at Port
land. Tom Gorman, making
his first start as a Beaver,
gave up eight hits including a
ninth inning home to Fred
Hatfield which won the ball
game, 2-1.
-Bud Watkjns hurled the
Phoenix Giants to a 3-1 vic
tory over San Diego. He al
lowed only four hits. Bud
Podbielan, who gave up all
three Phoenix runs, was
charged with his first defeat
after seven wins. I
Vancouver's win coupled
with Sacramento's loss, moved
the Mounties to within two
games of the lead. Spokane is
now only tnree ana a nan
games out and the hottest
club in the PCL.

Of League
San Francisco - (UPD - Tom
Hamilton, long on charm but
short on information has
joined the Athletic Associa

its executive director amid a
flurry, of speculation on just
what he came out here for.
Reporters put Hamilton,
Pittsburgh's outgoing athletic
director, through a 60-minute
grilling Wednesday to try and
discover why he is giving up
a good job with the Panthers
whom he helped rebuild into
a football power.
The answers weren't exact
ly sensational from the man
with who has joined the new
conference which includes
California, UCLA, Washing
ton and Southern California.
"I will coordinate the mu
tual interests of the member
schools and hope I can be of
benefit to them," declared
Hamilton, in a typical state
ment. He did say at one point,
however, that he was not
hired to be a "rubber stamp
or figurehead" for the group.
PCC Closes Books
The Big Four is the succes
sor of the nine-team Pacific
Coast Conference which of
ficially went out of business
Wednesday. ' Invest igation
three years ago by Commis
sioner Victor O. Schmidt
showed-that all 'of the Big
Four had been involved in
violating the PCC code.
"I am not a czar and don't
aspire to any such title," Ham
ilton said. "I think the new
concept whereby each school
investigates its own violations
is a good one, based on trust
and confidence of men who
know each other."
Hamilton allowed that if
any schools broke the new
Big Four code he would try
to help "avoid difficulties by
close talks and friendly visits
with officials involved."

Alex v Olmedo Defeats Laver
f or Womblledon Tennis Toga
Wimbledon, England -(UPD-
Alex Olmedo of Peru and Los
Angeles, a center of tennis
controversy on three conti
nents, today became the first
South American to win a
Wimbledon title when he
whipped Australia's Rod La
ver in the men's singles final
6-4, 6-3, 6-4.
Olmedo, seeded first and
the odds-on 1 to 8 favorite,
won the most coveted crown
in tennis before a standing
room center court crowd of
more than 15,000.
Many tennis observers ia
the United States and Aus
tralia criticized the United
States Lawn Tennis associa
tion for naming Olmedo to its
1958 Davis Cup team. He
came here as an official
USLTA representative but
Britisn sports writers call
him "Peru's gift to American
tennis.
No Match
Laver, only the second un
seeded player to reach the
Wimbledon men's final, made
a gallant try but was no
match for the catlike Olmedo.
The University of Southern
California senior battered
Laver with his big service and
outplayed him in every de
partment of the game.
Both women's doubles semi
finals and both mixed doubles
semi-finals also were sched
uled for the center court of
the famous stadium which
will be paced with about
15,000 tennis fans.
The United States had at
least one participant in every
event today including Dar
lene Hard of Mohtebello,
Calif., who is trying to score
a "triple" victory in the wom
en's singles, women's doubles
and mixed doubles. Miss Hard
smashed her way into the
singles finals Thursday with
a 6-4, 6-4 victory over Sandra
Reynolds of South Africa.
