Behra, France's champion
driver who wen the " 'bring,

hours after his sports car

Detroit and Gil McDougald of
New York, scratched because

Yankees. Earlier the Yankees'
Bill Skowron injured his hand
and was replaced by Elston
Howard.
But there will be stars ga
lore, headed by ageless Ted
Williams of the Boston Red
Sox and Stan Musial of the
St. Louis Cardinals on the
field.
Manager Fred Haney of the
National league, which whip
ped the Americans, 5-4, ear
lier this year, will return with
just about the same line-up
that he used in Pittsburgh.
National Lineup Same
Haney is using Johnny Tem
ple at second; Boyer at third;
Hank Aaron, right field; Wil
lie Mays, center field; Ernie
Banks, shortstop; Musial, first
base; Wally Moon, left field;
Del Crandall, catcher. And
they'll bat in that order.
The American league line
up goes: first base, Pete Run
nels; second base, Nelie Fox;
left field, Williams; catcher,
Yogi Berra; center field, Mic
key Mantle; right field, Roger
Maris; third base, Frank Mal
zone; shortstop, Luis Aparicio.
This is the first All-Star
game in history ever to be
piayed in the west but the
fans didn't take to it the way
it had been hoped. The heat
wave, plus television, will be
keeping many of them at
home-possibly leaving at least
40,000 seats empty in the
giant stadium.
And some of the players
don't care for the show, ei
ther. Temple said Sunday in
Cincinnati that the players
had "voted against holding a
second All-Star game," but
they had been forced to go
through with it when it was
found that radio and televi
sion contracts already had
been made.

Wan String to Six in Kow
By FRED DOWN
United Press International
Thirty shapes up today as
the "magic number" which
could give the Chicago White
Sox their first pennant in 40
years.
That National league race
is still as tight as a can of
sardines but 11 victories in
their last 12 games have the
White Sox going . . . going
and perhaps very soon "gone"
in the American league race.
The red - hot White Sox
stretched their latest winning
streak to six games and open
ed up a three-game lead Sun
day when they swept a dou
bleheader from the Washing
ton Senators, 3-2 and 9-3. The
losses stretched the Senators'
losing streak to 16 games-
two short of their club record
and four shy of a league mark
shared by three teams.
With 52 games left, the
White Sox can reach the 92
victory mark by winning 30
games and losing 22 for a .577
pace. The second-place Cleve
land Indians then would have
to go at a .640 pace to tie. The
New York Yankees. A mere
42 out 52 or. .808 would be
enough to tie.
No Break in NL
There's no sign of a major
break in the National league
where the San Francisco Gi
ants retained their half-game
lead with a 5-3 win over Pitts
burgh Sunday. The Los An
geles Dodgers moved back
into second with a 4-3 decision
over the Philadelphia Braves
and the Milwaukee Braves are
only a game behind San Fran
cisco despite their split with
the St. Louis Cardinals. The
Cardinals won the first tri
umph.
The Indians bounced back
from a 5-4 10-inning loss to
beat the Baltimore Orioles,
6-3, the Yankees downed the
Kansas City Athletics, 7-5, and
the Boston Red Sox scored a
5-4 win over the Detroit Ti

Cincinnati Reds beat the Chi
