Giants Bombard Pittsburgh;
Chisox Nab 30th by One Run
By JOHN GRIFFIN,
United Pitft International
The Giants and White Sox
may well wind up as rivals in
the World Series, but they
sure are traveling differ
ent roads toward the promised
land.
The Giants like to slug it
out in a "big inning," as they
did in a 12-5 triumph over the
Pittsburgh Pirates Tuesday
night to preserve their 3Vi
game National League lead.
Even 18-game winner Johnny
Antonelli got into the act with
a two-run homer.
But how about those "White
Sox, who think a "big inning"
means a walk, a stolen base,
a wild pitch, and a sacrifice
fly?
The Go-Go-Soxeri gave a
typical performance as they
came from behind to beat the
Boston Red Sox, 5-4, in 10 in
nings and maintain their two
game lead in the American
league chase. That was mere
ly their 30th one-run victory
so far this season.
Cash Gets Homtr
This time they were
"treated" to an early homer
by rookie Norm Cash. But
they had only four hits off
Frank Sullivan and trailed,
4-2, going into the ninth.
Singles by Al Smith and Cash
chased Sullivan and then Jim
Rivera and John Romano
continued the "bombardment"
with singles off reliever Mike
Fornieles to tie the score.
Chicago won in the 10th
when Sherm Lollar walked
with two out and Billy Good
man drove him home with a
double.
The Giants, on the other
hand, missed scoring in only
two innings as they trampled
the Pirates for Antonelli's
18th victory tops in the ma
jors. Dodgers Whip Phils
In the National league, the
s e c o n d-place Los Angeles
Dodgers whipped Philadel
phia, 5-2, to stay a half-game
ahead of the third-place Mil
waukee Braves, who downed
St. Louis, 3-1, in 10 innings.
Also, the Chicago Cubs
downed Cincinnati 8-6. In the
American league, second
place Cleveland ripped New
York, 6-3; Washington
downed Detroit, 3-1; and Kan
sas City shaded Baltimore,
6-5.
Duke Snider' and Gil
Hodges, the two "old pros"
who are pacing the Los An
geles attack, each whacked
his 21st homer of the year, to
beat the Phils. Snider's Was
the 352nd of hits career, break
ing his third-place tie with
Ralph Kiner on the all-time
National league list and leav
ing him behind only "Mel Ott
and Stan Musial.
Ray Boone, acquired recent
ly for pinch-hitting strength,
delivered a run-scoring ninth
inning single that gave the
Braves a 1-1 tie with the
Governor Brown Warns
Against Monkey Business
In Basilio-Fullmer Bout
Br HAL WOOD
San Francisco-flJPB-Gov. Ed
mund G. Brown made a strong
threat Tuesday to seek Aboli
tion of boxing in California,
and the California state ath
letic commission warned
against any "monkey busi
ness" in the Gene Fullmer
Carmen Basilio (NBA) middle
weight title fight here Fri
day night.
As the two battlers wound
un their training for the big
battle at the Cow Palace, the
commission forced Basilio to
tsn a now contract that
31 . -
would "cut out" his co-mana
gers, John De John and John
Netro. Neither man is eligible
for a manager's license in this
state-and neither is expected
to watch the battle from ring
side, although both probably
will see it on television.
Basilio 2-1 Favorite
Late odds showed that Basi
lio has been boosted into the
favorite's role at 2-1 and it is
probable that the commission
was cocking an eye at these
odds when it warned Basilio
against ''splitting" any of the
money he received here with
Netro and DeJohn.
"The first contract had a
clause in it stating that Netro
and DeJohn would split their
share of the purse," said Jack
Urch, executive officer of the
commission. "The new con
tract calls for Basilio to' get
100 per cent of whatever he
earns.
"If we find at any time
that he has split some of his
money with the co-managers,
he never will be allowed to
fight in California again."
, Meanwhile, Gov. Brown
warned the hoodlums in the
boxing industry that he is
considering a plan to outlaw
professional fighting -in the
state of California.
"The whole thing smells to
high heaven," Brown told a
news conference.
Brown suggested that Con
gress set up laws that would
put the states on a coopera
tive basis.
Wants Federal Regulation
"I seriously have been think
ing of asking for abolition of
boxing in this state unless
there are some national laws
enacted to clean it up," said
Brown. "It has to be on a na
tional level. It can't be done
without interstate coopera
tion." He added that there is
little interstate cooperation
now and, when a fighter or
manager is suspended in one
state, he "just goes into an
other state."
Basilio wound up his major
conditioning program Tues
day when he went two rounds
with sparring partner Leo
Owens. It brought to 111 the
number of rounds Carmen has
boxed preparing for this fight.
Today he. just went through
calisthenics and limbering up
exercises with a bit of road
work. Fullmer, who already has
boxed about 120 rounds, is in
secret sparring sessions yet
and hasn't allowed reporters
to see his new weapons the
last few days.
FORTY-NINERS TRIM

Francisco Forty-Niners trim
