Resugeht Braves Nab Four in low; Yanks, Nine Tiffs Off, May Be Gone By FRED DOWN United Press International The Braves are coming and the Yankees may be gone. That's the trend of the pen nant races today as the strain ing defending champions struggle to organize late -season drives. It looks like the Braves are going to make a fight of it. But there's no sign that the Yankees can snap out of the coma that now has them drifting out of the race. The Braves, bouncing back from a seven-game losing streak, ran their winning streak to four games Sunday when they beat the Pitts- Pirates, 4-0 and 2-1. They're now only two percentage points behind second-place Los Angeles and two games behind first-place San Francisco. The Yankees, meanwhile suffered a 1-0 loss to Frank Lary and the Detroit Tigers and fell one game below .500, nine games behind the Cleveland Indians, who took over first place with a 9-0 and 4-3 sweep of the Wash ington Senators.

MacKay Seems Back in Form Haverford, Pa.-IUPD-The re turn to top form of Barry MacKay sent American Davis Cup tennis hopes soaring to day despite the latest defeat 'suffered by Alex Olmedo. MacKay, on leave from the u. a. Air rorce ana trying to regain his best condition be fore the Davis Cup challenge around Aug. 28-30, showed that he's finding his touch again by winning the Pennsyl vania Lawn Tennis champion shin for the second straight year Sunday. In the finals he beat Ian Vermaak of South Africa, 9-7, 10-8, 6-0. The game by outgunned Vermaak" thus failed in an ef fort to give South Africa a sweep of singles titles here. Sandra Reynolds, women's champion of South Africa, beat her countrywoman Renee Schuurman in the women's final, 1-6, 6-1, 6-4.
