It's been a long time coming but
the Brooklyn Dodgers finally are

tho last week of the season."
That last wee tne uuagers nvc
six games three with Pittsburgh
and three wltn new nor.
The Dodgers showed their mighty
power in swamping Cincinnati
twice and last night they displayed
the vital ability to fight back under
pressure when they licked the St.
Louis Cardinals 8-4.
Rmoklvn went into the ninth In
ning trailing 4-2. A two-run pinch-
homer by rooKie wan wuiyu mugsi
the score and the Dodgers piled on I Chicago 4, Philadelphia 3 (12 in

to Milwaukee's pennant aspirations
with a 3-1 triumph before a Mil-
waukee record crowd of 46.844. ine
Braves got to oai maguc iui

run scored when outfielder Dave
Phllley ' booted Mickey- -Vernon's

the 10th. Feller gave up only three
hits, all bunts, between the second
and the 10th.

"Not a wrrd to the wives,

Scribe Sees
Cle Casey's
Retirement
By GAYLE TALBOT
NEW YORK Wi Those experts
who follow the daily fortunes of
the Yankees are convinced now
that Casey Stengil win retire to
his swimming pool in Glendalc, as
his wife has been begging him to
do for three years, if he falls to
win his sixth straight pennant.
They recall that a this birthday
party early in the season Casey
said seriously "If I can't win with
this team, then I ought to quit and
let them hire a manager who can.
Players are hired to win, and so
are managers." Casey's listeners
did not pay him too much mind at
Ihe time, but as the tide goes
against him they feel certain he
meant it.
For ona thing, they have known
all along that he was bilterly dis
appointed when George Weiss, the
Yank general manager, abruptly
sold pilcher Vic Raschl to the at.
Louis Cardinals early In spring
training.
Casey didn't' realize that Weiss
was on the point of exploding be
cause Raschi. who was holding ou.
in a beach cottaRe only a few .miles
from Yankee headquarters, hnd
not even called him by phone to
discuss the terms of his con
tract. "If I'd known how II was," Sten
gel told a reporter, "I'd a seen to
it thai Raschi called him. I could
win another nennant If I had him."
So if, Cleveland wins and Casey
calls it a long career, there arc
thos-e- who always will think It
would nave been different if
S30.000 a year rJHcher had spent
10 cents at tne right time.
National League President War
ren Giles, trying to head oif wordy
and time-consuming squabbles be
tween the players and his um
pires, has advised the arbiters to
lake a little more time in giving
decisions on close plays and, when
in doubt, to seek help from one
another.
He told them there was no loss
of dignity in not being abrupt and
cocksure, and that, the shining ob
jective was to arrive at the right
decision, even if "eventually' This
is ope of the smartest things said
by a league president in our time
and should take some of the strain
off the boys in blue. , j
The fact is that every team of
umpires has a set of signals which
enables one of their number, when
partially blocked out on a play and
in doubt, to get a quick decision
from an umpiring mate. It's been
done for a long time, but surrepti
tiously. Now the unips can get
thefr heads together openly, as :
they should have all along. I
Barnev Ross, who was a great!
name in boxing some 15 years ago,
came away from one of Rocky
Marciano's workouts the other day
haking his greying locks and pre
dicting that the champion was go
ing to burn himself out long before
hfs time if he din't temper his
rigorous training methods.

In hmh
DETROIT Tie final round of
the National Ama.eur golf cham
pionshin a tournament noted for
iis contrasts todr.y matched a
pair of golfers of sharply contrast
ing asc, appearance and back
grounds. .
But Bob Sweeny of Long Island,
Palm Beach; London, and Tne Ri
viera, and Arnold Palmer of Lat
robe. Pa., Wake Forest, N. C, and
Cleveland had one thing in com
monthey're darn noct sailers
when the strokes really count.
The last two favorites, who as
sumed those roles only when the
early choices failed. Sweeny -and
Palmer clashed today in a 3C-hole
final starting at 9:30 a.m. I EST).
Sweeny is 43, tall and almost
cadaverously thin, with imi Oxford
accent and an impeccable social
background. And he's, a golfer who
sometimes plays Ben Hogan
"level' at the plush Seminole Club ;
in Palm Beach and even gave Ben
a handicap once.
Palmer, 24, son of a Latrobe, Pa.
professional, Milford (Deacon)
Palmer, is a medium-sized, muscu
lar looking fellow with high cheek
bones and a face that seldom
breaks into a smile. He was virtu
ally brought up on a golf course
and hardly took time nut to attend
Wake Forest College where he
won the first Atlantic Coast Con
ference title last spring and to
serve in the Coast Guard where !
he also played golf.
They never had played each
other before today and hardly knew
each other except to exchange an
occasional nod around a golf
course.
Palmer, drawn in the, toughest
quarter of the draw, had to dispose
of internationalists Stranahan and
Don Cherry and then went 39 holes
matching the record length for
amateur cnamplonship matches, to
turn back his 37-year-old towns
man. Ert Mcistcr, in yesterday's
semifinal.
Sweeny, last man off the tee ev
ery day, didn't meet a prominent
player on his way to the last!
round. His semifinal opponent, Dr.1
Ted Lcnczyk, never before had
qualified for the national and al
ways hud played in the shadow of
his sister, Grace. Sweeny, winner
of the British Amateur 17 years
p.po, simply crushed him by a 5 and
4 margin.
