It must be gratifying to the long-sufiering Cleveland faithful, however, today to check back dur ing the past lew days and discover that It was the proud Yankees, and not the maligned Indians, who lost seven of their last 10 clutch games. And In the same period, the Indians lost only two out of 10 to pick up five big games on the weary world champions. If ever there had been any doubts about Cleveland's Intestinal fortitude, the American League leaders dispelled them yesierday with a glorious double triumph over New York that all but ended the long Yankee dynasty. Tne 4-1 and 3-2 victories before 88,563 spectators, the largest crowd ever to watch a baseball game, stretched Cleveland's first place margin over the Yankees to 8"2 lengths. That is almost an insur mountable hurdle for Casey Sten gel's crew. With only 10 games left, the Indians can clinch their first flag since 1948 by merely winning three, even If the Yankees win all their remaining 11. All was not rosy for the Cleve land's springtime sparring part ners, the New York Giants, how ever. Continuing the lack-lustre play that has marked their recent performances, the Giants were beaten 4-3 by St. Louis and had their National League lead sliced to three games when the rebound ing Brooklyn Dodgers came through with a 4-2 and 4-3 double- header sweep over the Chicago Cubs. BKAVKS SPLIT Milwaukee's Braves, still in the running despite two recent losses to the Dodgers, drew to within 4!'2 games of the top by earning a split with the Phillies In Philadel phia. Lew Burdclte outpitched Robin Roberts for a 2-1 Braves' victory after the Phillies had snapped War ren Spahn's 11-game victory string 5-2. Cincinnati's Redlegs climbed into fourth place, drubbing the Pittsburgh Pirates twice 11-5 and 13-2 as Ted Kluszewskt drove in nine runs and smashed homers Nos. 47 and 48. The Chicago White Sox. paced by Nellie Fox and Minnie Minoso, vanquished the Boston Red Sox twice 5-3 and 7-5 to reach, and pass, the 91) victory mark for the tirst time since 1920.

Larry Hoffman, who sparked the General's running attack all night, led the Portland team down field as he picked up several big chunks oi yardage through the Pelicans' forward wall, while Bob Clark, the Grant quarterback. keDt mix ing the Generals' plays very. well. With the ball resting on the pel ican 12 yard marker, Clark handed off to Hoffman, who broke off tackle and scored, giving the Grant squad a 6-0 lead. Jack Beau- doln kicked the extra point giving tne Generals a seven point margin. Grant got another break later m the first period but couldn't capitalize, as the Pels took advan tage of a good goal line stand and a fumble on the part of Grant. BAD PASS On the klckoff from the Gener als, Klamath was held on downs, and a bad pass from center over Dave Pepple's head as the ell cans attempted to punt set the Klamath team deep in a hole. Grant recovered the ball on the Klamath 27 yard line, and they worked the ball down to the eight yard strip as tne lirst quarter came to an end.

Alter the champion Is chosen Monday night, the post-season playoffs are scheduled to start Tuesday, with third-place Oakland at (he champion's park and fourth place San Francisco at the field ot uie rumierup, ell on a Grant fumble on the Klomath Falls one yard line to stop a General threat, but after a series of downs, the Pels had to kick. Grant then marched from the Pelicans' , 36 yard line down to pay dirt with Beaudoin, last year's city scoring leader in Portland, leading the way and setting the stage for the second General score. FAKE KICK After the Grant team was set back to the eight yard line, John Miller, reserve Grant fullback, faked a field goal try from the 15 yard strip and ran around end for the touchdown. Beaudoin's kick was no good In making the score 13-0 in favor of the visiting Grant High squad. In the early minutes of the third period, Vern Titus of Grant broke through the Pelican line to block Pepple's punt, and Grant took over the ball on the Klamath 16 yard line. A penalty against Klamath set the ball on the one yard line and after Bob Bolles lost a yard, Beau doin scored on a line lunge from the two yard mark with four min utes gone in the third quarter to give Grant a 19-0 lead. Again Beaudoin's kick was no good. Klamath's big break and only score came with 10 and a half minutes gone as Bob Harshbarger broke through the Generals forward rambled 15 yards into the end zone lor six points and a Pelican score, making the score stand at 19-6 Grant's favor. Following the klckoff from the Pels to Grant. Hoffman took off on another off tackle sprint from his own 25 through the Pelican secondary and looked as if he was away for a touchdown, but Guy Munsell, big Pelican end, came from behind to stop the Grant halfback on the Klamath 3 yard line on a last minute desperation tackle that stopped a run of 72 yards. The Grant threat was again stopped temporarily as Pepple in tercepted one of Clark's passes and the Pels moved the ball out to the one yard line where Pepple kicked to the Grant 45 yard line. Hoffman on the first down spun to the 36 yard line, where Bolles, Beaudoin and Dick Van Saun took turns In moving the pigskin down to the Klamath 17 yard line, where Bolles circled right end for a touchdown. Beaudoin's conversion was good making the score stand at 26-6, with better than five min utes gone in the final quarter. FINAL BUZZER As the game was drawing to a close the Pels, with Larry Yarnell at the helm, moved up to the 47 yard line on a 11 yard run by Dave Leeling and then Chuck Gup ill picked up another gain of 23 yards as the final buzzer sounded. Hoffman was the leading round gainer of the General attack as he piled up 147 yards in nine tries, while Beaudoin ran for 67 yards in 15 tries. Several of Grant's scoring drives were hampered very serious ly by offside penalties, especially in the first two periods of play. The General grid machine was called for offside, 12 times for 60 yards and three other tries for ma jor infractions of 15 yards each.
