Sox Gain On Yanks By BEN PHLEGAR AP Sports Writer When the "break up" boys take a look at todays major league standings they may want to con' sider switching leagues Instead of crying "Breax up tne Yankees" as they have for years, they mleht find it more approprt ate to start chanting "Break up ihe Dodgers." Todav. for the first time since May 17, the American League has a closer pennant race than does the National League. Brooklyn's steadily moving Dodg ers lead Milwaukee by Hit games. The New York Yankees own only a 4 tit-game bulge over Chicago. The Dodgers took a big striae forward last night by outclassing Chicago in a double-header 9-3 and 11-1 as Milwaukee bowed to Phila delphia 6-3. The Yankees frittered away a full game of their lead by losing to Cleveland 6-4 for the second straight night after the White Sox shaded Boston 1-0. HOME COOKING Ever since the Dodgers came back to home cooking shortly be' fore the All-Star Game they've been fattening their martin. They've won 10 of their last 11 games with the single misadventure coming against Cincinnati Sunday. Tne Yankees on the other hand have had their ups and downs re' cently, reaching their high point with- two brilliant victories' over Chicago Sunday and then fallimr on unmeaiaieiy against Cleveland. Brooklyn combined excellent pitching, usually a rarity in Eb bets Field, with Its normally heavy hitting to humiliate , tne hapless Cubs. Johnny Podres, a rookie left-hander, struck out 10 and gave up six nits In his second complete major league game. Veteran Carl Erskine allowed only four hits and also struck out 10 In the nightcap. n HITS The ' Dodgers combed Chicago pitching for 24 hits including two home runs by Gil Hodges, who drove in seven tallies, and single circuit masts by carl Furlllo and uuKe snider. At Philadelphia the Phillies jumped on Warren Spahn for four runs in the first Innlne and the Braves couldn't catch up. The open ing attack featured a two-run horn- by Cranny Hamner. It was Spahn's fourth loss against 12 vic tories. The Yankees tried to win it early In Cleveland but their pitchers didn't have slaying power. The In' dians trailed by three runs after three Innings. Then they got to Whitey Pord for a pair In the fourth on a home run by Joe Tipton and took the lead; in the fifth on a nomer by Dale Mitchell and dou bles by Al Rosen and Larry Doby. After a bad first inning Mike Gar cia settled down to check the in vaders for his 12th triumph. PITCHING , But tile story at Chicago was almost all pitching as Virgil Trucks scattered four hits and let only one runner get as far as second. Mel Parnell, ace of the Boston staff, hurled ono of his best games too, but one hft, a triple by Chlco Carrasquel to open the fifth Inning, ruined him. Chlco hung on third while Trucks grounded out but he scampered home when Nellie Fox lonea a long fly to center field. The only other American League action was In St. Louis, where Bobby Shanhs of the Philadelphia Athletics, last year's most valuable Player in the loop, won his first game since- May 3, a five-hitter over the Browns 11-1. In the National league the New York Giants and St. Louis Cardi nals swapped positions again as the Giants rallied in the ninth to edge the Cards 8-6. The victory moved New York back into fourth place. Al Dark's single with the bases loaded was the pay off punch. ' Pittsburgh defeated Cincinnati 3-2 with Cal Abrams hitting two home runs for the Pirates. v - ' 0 RALPH McLEOD didn't wirronything on last night's hardtop program but he supplied ihe crowd the top thrill when, he flipped hit ear four times in the Main Event. The photographer caudht McLeod's car her going over the bank. '- y ' -: .? ... . ; staff photo by Don Kettler Russ Newell Repeats In Main Event 1 Russ Newell, an electrician's ap prentice, Is no rookie on the race! ing grounds, track. Newell, who drives Jerry Short's K-15 like it Was designed for the Gems Speedway track, piloted a heady race last nignt to capture his second straight Main Event win. .,- " Dale Hankins gave Newell a race for awhile in Jim Kaler's K-l but Newell made his move late in the race and pulled away from Hankins' like he was going back wards. He won in a breeze with Hankins second. The feature race saw Alan Baus- man ram through the new fence on the home turn like It was made of match sticks. Ralph McLcod missed the first turn on the tenth lap and flipped over four times. Neither driver was' Injured: " NOT ALL BAD It wasn't all bad luck for Bails man, though. He won the second heat over Newell and later won the trophy In the dash race over Clint Lorber, first heat winner; Ben Morrison, winner In the third heat; and Hankins, victor in the fourth heat. - -i Morrison and Hankins trailed Bailsman in that order In the trophy dash, the race with the kiss. None of the beat winners placed In the top three in the final heat. That event was won by Al Rossi of Yreka, who also registered the fastest time trial, 17.14, ahead, of Matt Christian and Billy Hilton. POT RACE Hankins, Johnny Hitson and Bob Crawley finished in that order in the Pot Race. The 15-lan Semi Main was won by Christian ahead of Crawley and John . Brasseale. Ten per cent of the drivers' and officials' pay went last night to a needy family of eleven here. Merchants Host Loop Leaders Here Sunday The Klamath Merchants so Elk. hunting Sunday on their own shoot Hi Hatfield's entry In the Oregon- California Border League current ly, running last in the four-team loop hosts the Burns Elks, loop leaders, 1:30 p.m. at Recreation Park. - . . -. ,- , ,' , If the Merchants can get over Burns with Fran Miller on the mound and Lakeview wins at Al turas, Burns and Lakeview would be tied for the league leadership. At the same time It would nut the Merchants in a tie for second place with the Alturas club, a team that whipped Klamath Falls Sun day, d-, wnne Lakeview was knocking over Burns. 8-3, with Its pitching ace, Bobby Long, back in tne torn. Burns now has a one-game bulge on Lakeview (4-3) with a 6-2 record. Alturas' win over Klamath Falls Sunday put that team in third place wnn 3-4. Klamath's loss was its fifth against just two wins. Miller asked for the chance to face Burns and If the left-hander is right he'll be hard to beat. He was right June 28 when he gave Lakeview Just three hits in one of the Merchants' two wins. Sunday, a combination of Miller's wildness and Infield boners ended his stint on the. mound In favor of Andy Anderson in the. fifth Inning. . Hatfield will catch Miller unless Al Herrera is ready for second-base duty after' ripping ligaments In his shoulder in a July 12 game at Al turas. f ; If Herrera returns, Ron Owings Uwho has been switched to second, win to ueuuio we piate ano Hat field will return to his centerfield position, : ' - It's likely Jack Lutz will get Burns'. nod for the starting mound assignment. ',. Malin Half Game Back Travel Lodge, leading the Wom en's City Softball League all sea son, doesn't feel secure today. The Travelers are Just a half game ahead of Malin after that team's 23-13 win over Midland last night. The Lodgers were Idle. In another slugfest on Conger Field, Big Y out-lasted the MlUers, 19-18. Oregon Wool and Merrill played to a 6-6 tie stopped by the cur fewand will make up the game later. Emma Phelps and Betty Scala of Midland almost led their team to an upset over Malin when they belled home runs. Plane Hazard To Women NORTH BEND. Wash.
