o o . 9 . I Yanboe Number Now 7 By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS There's been a claim of foul in that home run race that's heading into the homestretch with Roger Maris holding a three-length lead over fast-closing Babe Ruth and Mickey Mantle losing ground. Maris, the leader with 56 home runs, angrily criticized plate um pire Hank Soar last night after the New York Yankees edged the Chicago White Sox 4-3 in a rain shortened contest that cost Maris and Mantle at least one at-bat apiece. - Reduced to a three-game edge over Ruth's record 60 homer pace of 1927. Maris cited Soar for what he called poor balls and strikes calls. "I didn't get too many strikes," complained the Yankee slugger, "yet they were being called strikes. 1 was swinging in self-defense." . v Both Maris, who now needs four homers in the next nine decisions to tie Ruth's mark in the allotted time, and Mantle were held hom- erless by Billy Pierce and Frank Baumann. But each had a single before the game was called in the last of the ninth. Yanks 4, Sox 3 Maris and Mantle were instru mental in the Yankees 13th con secutive triumph with Maris wheeling home with the winning run in tne tilth on Elston s How ard single. He had opened with a single and moved up on Man tle's base hit. Maris, who went to the plate four times, also walked in the first and scored, while Mantle who has 53 homers, struck out and flied deep to center in his other at-bals. Ralph Terry (14-21 won it for the Yanks although tagged for eight hits one the game's only nomer Dy mue Luis Aparic o. Al Smith began the final inning with a double to left center and Nellie Fox moved him to third with a sacrifice.

AP) Three former champs and an Irish belter kept the United States Amateur Golf championship from being completely wide open today in play that will see only 36 sur vivors by nightfall. Defending champion Dcane Be- man fell Tuesday before veteran Billy Joe Patton, but ex-titlists Harvie Ward Jr., Charlie Coe and Jack Nicklaus all whipped through the second round. So did three-time British cham pion Joe Carr of Ireland, a witty fellow who laced a couple of drives about 300 yards while over whelming Claude Wright of En- glewood, Colo., 6 and 5. Not in 29 years has a foreigner won the U.S. Amateur title. Exacting conditions of play over (he 6,747-yard Pebble Beach course, with small greens, and weather conditions that vary al most hourly, give the advantage to the experienced golfer. Even the dark hordes were golf ers with experience Bob Gardner of Elmsford, N.Y., two-time for mer California champ and last year runner-up in the national to Beman and ex-pro Glen Fowler of Oklahoma City, both , sub-par shooters the past two days. ' Patton. 39. mistpd Reman 2-itn The 1960 champ missed six putts of eight feet or less as his usually reliable putter failed. Patton, of Morganton, N.C., out drove his foe and hit beautiful chip shots on the 16th and 17th to preserve a one-hold lead. On the 18th, Beman hit into a trap and it was all over. Ward was 2 under par in dis patching Harlan Lane of Houston. 7 and 5, to put him against Dud ley Wysong Jr.. of McKinney. Tex., today. The San Franciscan. national champ in 1955 and 1956 didn't lose a hole. Wysong beat Andy Card of Wayland.

Oklahoma City's Coe. litlist in 1949 and 1958. triumphed 5 and 4 over John Nichols of Downey, Calif. Nicklaus, even after nine, rallied to win the next three holes against Oregon champ Donald Kriegcr of Portland and go on to a 4 and 3 triumph.

Congressman Jack WesUand of Everett, Wash:;-national cham pion in 1952, went to the sidelines with Beman as collegian Frank James of Grinncll, Iowa, beat him 6 and 4.

But now Johnson is a hero for the National League-leading Reds, who beat the Chicago Cubs 7-2 Tuesday night as the reserve catcher drove in three runs with a pair of doubles in a victory that boosted the Reas edge over sec ond-place Los Angeles lo 4': games. Johnson, 34. with a .233 major league batting average, has been hitting at a .275 clip since he was purchased by the Reds but his ex ploits had to share top billing with Don Demeter's. Demeter made the woeful Phils anything but as he crashed thrcel homers and a single, driving in seven runs in a 19-10 rout of the pennant-c h a s 1 n g Dodgers.

The blast was directed at plate umpire Hank Soar. Maris accused the arbiter of making at least three bad calls against him. Soar, who has been an Ameri can League umpire for 15 years, blasted right back. "Those pitchers didn't throw me too many strikes tonight," complained Maris, "yet Ihey were 1 had to swing in self defense." Soar shot back: . v "He's so tight he can't breathe. You can't call a strike on him without getting an argument." Maris cited three instances when he believed Soar erred in his judgment of balls and strikes The first lime was in the second inning when, with runners on sec- ond and third, Roger bluffed bunt but did not swing. Soar called it a strike. "The pitch was high up here, Maris said, raising his arm above to Maris, was wlien Soar called him out on strikes a few moments later. I didn't swing," he asserted. "My body moved but my bat didn't." What am I supposed to be a mind reader?" asked Soar. "When he swings, he swings." ; In the sixth inning, Maris dis agreed with a strike call, an in side pitch. Roger raised a high foul caught outside first base on the pitcher's next delivery. "They are pitching him inside," said Soar, "and he's letting them go by." Said Maris: "1 realize an um pire can have a bad day just as a playe- can have one. But I don't like it when it happens every lime I come to bat. I'm not looki ing for any favors.
