If they lose to the Cubs in a day game at Chicago, the Dodgers will back into the National league cham pionship. If the Cardinals win or their game is rained out the hap less Mets, who already have clinched last place, can post pone the Dodgers' pen n a n t clinching party for another 24 hours by winning the night game. Tracy Stallard, who owns the only victory the Mets have scored at Los Angeles all sea son, will oppose 18-game winner Don Drysdale of the Dodgers. Los Angeles had a chance to clinch the pennant Sun day when the Cardinals lost to Cin cinnati. But the Pirates knocked off the Dodgers, so all Walt Al ston's men sewed up was a tie for first. The Dodgers won't be too dis appointed if the Cardinals elim inate themselves at Chicago. "Mavbe it won t be as excit ing to show up for tonight's eame with the pennant won, said outfielder Lee Walls, "but it will be mighty satisfying." "I don't care how we win added Drysdale. "Sure, I'd like to add another victory to my record, but nailing down the oennant is more important.' The early-bird New York Yan kees, who clinched the Ameri can league flag 11 days ago, will do a little celebrating of their own tonight. Roger Maris, who has missed Pesky Signs For Another Year With Sox BOSTON (UPI) - Johnny Pesky has been given a second chance. Boston vice president Mike Higgins announced Mon day night that Pesky, who work ed his way up from clubhouse boy to Red Sox shortstop and then manager, has been signed to another one-year contract.

But then Boston's pitching and slugging collapsed. And they sank to their present level of seventh. The early pennant drive com bined with the appeal of names such as Dick Stuart, Dick Kad atz, Bill Monbouquctte, Carl Yastrzemski and a few others pushed club attendance to more than 200,000 over last years 733,000, team officials said.

Braves To Stay In Milwaukee By GENE BERNHARDT United Press International MILWAUKEE (UPI) - City and state civic and governmen tal officials prepared today to carry through on earlier pledges to boost the Braves after the Milwaukee club announced Mon day it will stay in Milwaukee, "as long as we're welcome." The club's announce m e n t calmed community leaders, who reacted quickly in recent weeks to published reports the Braves were ready to move to more luc rative attendance pastures. Gov. John Reynolds said he was "delighted" to hear the club planned to stay in Milwaukee but that he still felt the aspect of baseball as a private enter prise should be investigated by Congress or the Justice Depart ment. Reynolds said, however, he felt his warning last week that he would ask for an investiga tion had "no bearing" on the decision of the Braves not to move. The announcement also left unanswered a complaint attribu ted to the Braves that revenue from radio and television broad cast rights was too low. Some $535,000 in broadcast fees was realized this past season, but station executives said they lost money this year and different financial arrangements would have to be made for 1964. John McHale, president of the Braves, said in the announce ment, "The Braves will be in Milwaukee today, tomorrow, next year and as long as we're welcome." Milwaukee Mayor Henry Maier said the club made an "extremely sound decision." County execitive John Doyne, who was the first governmental official to start efforts to keep the club in Milwaukee, express ed "the greatest happiness." "I honestly felt the chances Ihey would leave were greater then the chances they would stay," said Doyne. "I would like to dispel any suspicions that this was 'scare' talk. I was deeply concerned about it." The Milwaukee Association of Commerce will appoint a "base ball committee" from its mem bership to promote the sale of season tickets and also single game attendance. TRIES THIRD TIME LAUREL, Md.
