The Blue Devils, clad in red and gray, nosed Prospect 4 to 3 in eight frames and will ad vance into next week's semi final action. Condon fashioned the tri umph with the aid of three hit, 15-strikeout pitching of Everett Bredlimas. Hits by Dave Low and Calvin Brooks figured in the Devil scoring. The fracas, marred by rain, went into extra session after Brooks connected for a sixth inning home run blast, tying the mix at 3-all, and neither team could score again in the regulation seven frames. In the top of the eighth Low grounded out but Brooks lined a single into left field. Next, Mike Parish boarded first base on an error which allowed Brooks to reach third sack. Bill Johnson replaced VVally Nye on the hill for the home team Cougars. As Johnson faced pinch bat ter Bud Logan, Parish dashed for second. Johnson turned and threw to shortstop Terry Gardner and Brooks broke for home. Parish was tagged out but Brooks scored on the play. Lead Switches In the bottom of the eighth Johnson popped out. Cougar hopes stayed alive when Dick Bean was hit by a pitch and swiped second. But pinch hit ter Jerry Wilson and Bill Hunt whiffed to end the game. Condon nabbed a first in ning 1 to 0 lead. Prospect pushed on top 2 to 1 in the third canto. The Blue Devils of Coach Harvey Neffendorf knotted action in the top of the fourth and Prospect hop ped in front again 3 to 2 in the bottom of the panel. Both of the early Devil markers were tallied on wild pitches. In the first inning Steve Carrine walked and swiped second. He advanced to third when Pat Tierncy was thrown out at first base after a dropped third strike. The wold pitch followed. For the fourth inning counter Low singled and moved to second when Brooks was hit by a pitch. A balk advanced both runners, setting the stage be fore the bum toss. For the Cougars of Coach Duane Payne in the third in ning Gardner walked and stole second base. Johnson plastered the ball into right field for a three base blast, scoring Terry.

Nye knocked the ball into left field in the first inning for Prospect's first hit. Jim O'Meara smacked one of the safe blows for Condon. Brooks belted his honier into right center field.

Davises Spark Dodgers To Victory Over Giants Los Angeles -il'Pl- What difference a Davis makes-and for the Los Angeles Dodgers who have two Davises it means a difference of two games. The unrelated Davis boys, Tommy and Willie, again teamed up Tuesday night -Tommy powering his second two-run homer in as many games and Willie singling twice and driving in two runs -to give the Dodgers a 5-1 vic tory over San Francisco. The Dodgers swept the two-! game series from the Giants, limiting San Francisco to a run in each game, and cutting the Giants National lead to 2' - games. They came into town Monday with a 4 '--j game margin over second place Los Angeles and St. Louis. Big Stan Williams provided the Dodgers with their sec ond straight fine pitching job -a performance that would have enabled the talents of either Davis to gain the vic tory. Williams gave up a single t o leadoff batter Harvey Kuenn to open the game. The next Giant hit was Willie Mays' leadoff double in the sixth. When Chuck Hillcr singled to right the Giants had their only run. Sherry Takes Over However, the opening two San Francisco batters in the ninth lined singles and Dodger manager Wall Alston changed pitchers. Reliefer Larry Sher ry ended the affair quickly as Jose Pagan hit into a double play and Willie McCovey grounded out.
