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.

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

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

Malin Half

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
