TRU-niX GOIICRETE FOR EVERY CONCRETE NEED I Land Leveling and Construction EQUIPMENT FOR RENT TRIHHIX By TIM MORIAHTY UPI Sports Writer When Mickey Mantle suf fered a broken bone in lus left foot June 5, manager Ralph Houk of the New York Yankees insisted "we're not going to lay down and die." He uttered Virtually the same words when Koger Muris, the other half of the Yankees' dreaded "M & M" combo, was knocked out of action with a sore back nine days ago. Houk s grammar may have been faulty but not his logic. Mantle is back with the club but it may be a few more days before Houk writes his name on the lineup card. Yel during his absence the Yan kee have won 27 ol 41 games. With both Mantle and Maris missing during the past week, Houk s men have won five of seven. So who's dying? The Yankees increased their first place bulge in the American league to B'i games Sunday by taking a pair from the Kansas City Athletics, 11 6 and 5-0. The Boston Red Sox and the Chicago White Sox re mained In a virtual tic for sec ond by splitting twlnbills. The Red Sox blanked the Los Angeles Angels, 5-0, after suffering a 10-8 setback and the White Sox pulled out a 3-2 victory after losing to the Baltimore Orioles, 6-3. The Minnesota Twins swept their doublcheader with the Cleve land Indians, 5-3 and 8-2, and the Detroit at '.Washington twinbill was rained out. John Blanc-hard and Hector Lopez, filling in admirably for the "M & M" boys, hom ered In the first game at Kan sas City to help the Yankees wipe out a 4-0 deficit. Al Downing, who pitched a four his shutout, coasted to victory in the nightcap as Tom Trcsh hit a pair of solo homers and Elston Howard knocked in three runs with a single, a double and a homer.

The White Sox earned a split against Baltimore when Nellie Fox singled home two runs with two outs in the ninth inning of the nightcap. The Orioles won the opener by routing Ray Herbert with a four-run burst in the third inning. Mike McCormick limited the White Sox to six hits before giving way to Stu Miller in the eighth. The Twins scored 11 runs on five homers in sweeping the Indians. Home runs by Earl Battcy, Zoilo Versalles and Vic Power accounted for all of Minnesota's runs in the opener.

His best time was 3:25.1 in the second heat. Dark Goes To Bat For His Auto Race Scheduled Players In Dusting Case Pittsburgh-d'Pll-Alvin Dark regards the safety and wel fare of the San Francisco Giants so highly that he is willing to sarifice his own career in their behalf. Normaly a man of even temperament and of deep re ligious convictions. Dark gave vent to his indignation Sun day, a day after Philadelphia righthander R y n e Duren threw dusters at Willie Mc Covey and Willie Mays. "The opposing pitchers are picking our men off one" by one and it must stop," said Dark. "I've made repeated protests to the umpires and they have done nothing about it. Well, if the umpires won't protect our players I will even if I'm . suspended for life." National League President Warren Giles was informed that Dark was angry about bean balls. Giles said he hadn't heard Dark's com ments, remarking "this is the first complaint I've heard this year." "It's a subject that's brought up every year and I see nothing unusual this year and I don't think there has been any increase in the num ber of bean balls," Giles added. Dark promised retaliation at pitchers who dust off his players. "I won't stand by and see this happen," he said. "We've not started one throwing match and we don't intend to. But we have a right to fight back not by throwing at the players on the opposing team but at pitchers who are throwing at our men." Dark was ejected from the game in Philadelphia by plate umpire Shag Crawford Satur day after McCovey was hit by a Duren pitch and Mays was sent sprawling into the dirt. Dark ran out to protest to Crawford. "I asked him why he didn't warn Duren after Mays was put into the dirt and he told me 'Well, that was just a slider," Dark said. I told him that Duren threw a pretty hard slider and pointed to McCovey on first. I told him what about that man hobbled at first and what about one of our other men in the hospital (Jim Ray Hart), "Crawford then warned me that if our pitcher throws at Duren when he comes to bat 'you're out of the game." "I told him he may as well throw me out right then be cause Duren was going down when he came to bat. Duren did go down hit by Billy Pierce's first pitch in the third inning." Dark was ejected after Pierce hit Duren.
