Yankee Slump Not Earth-Shaking

CUBS, PHILS WIN:
Milwaukee's 13 Hits
Down Cincinnati, 11-1

By WHITNEY MARTIN
NEW YORK-(IP)-There is a
corn belt saying that goes some-
thing like this: "Knee high by the
Fourth of July."
It refers to the normal progress
of the crop, but if quoted around
these parts it might be taken to
mean how the New York Yankees
feel. They've been shrinking in
stature at an astonishing rate.
* * *
HONESTLY, you'd think the
slump of the club was an earth-
shaking event, a combination of
the Fall of Rome, the Battle of
Waterloo and the Gl'eat Crash of
1929.
We are falling under the spell
until we grabbed ourselves by
the scruff, held ourselves at
arms length, and said sternly:
"See here, fella. Why all the
worry about the poor downtrodden

Yankees, who are only leading the
league and bidding for a fifth
straight pennant? Nobody worries
about the woes of the Browns, or
the Tigers. When you yourself go
into a slump, which is too often,
you can't call the bullpen for help
or bring in some bright young
farmhand to pull you out of it.
You worry it through, that's all.
As Marty Marion put it so ac-
curately: " 'I wish I had their
troubles.' "
* * *
SO WE WON'T dwell on the
problems of Casey Stengel, or re-
fer to the Yankees othe' than to
say that Saturday is the Fourth
of July, the traditional time to
take stock of the pennant races,
and the New York Yankees are in
first place, a spot where we think
theywill be at the close of the
season.
Cleveland and Chicago-and
Boston, if Lou Boudreau's kin-
dergarten class suddenly leaps
out of the sandpile and gets out
of hand-seem to be the only
other real contenders in the
American League. You can write
off the other clubs except for
their nuisance value, which
coild be considerable. Sometimes
a team which isn't going any-
where decides which team will
finish on top.
Cleveland has the pitching, andj
if Luke Easter remains in good'
health the Indians will be very

dangerous indeed. George Strick-
land, although something of a
blank spot in the batting order,
has given them the defensive
strength at shortstop they sorely
needed.
* * *
THE FIRE and drive of Man-
ager Paul Richards make the
White Sox a threat, but fire andl
drive can carry a team only so
far, as was demonstrated last
year when the Chicago club sag-
ged badly during the second half'
of the campaign. Speed and dash;
and fairhitting areatheir strong
points, but they lack adequate
pitching. Not enough Billy Pierces.
The National League still of-
fers a five-club race, and don't;
count those amazing Milwaukee
Braves out yet. Nobody expected
them to be playing musical
chairs withbthe Dodgers for the
lead now, but they're doing it
nevertheless. And it wasn't all
because of the enthusiasm en-
gendered by their new surround-
ings.
Charley Grimm has a sound,
much improved ball club, and the
pitching has been far better than
expectations. They've made it to
the middle of the stream in a vir-
tual tie for the top. Now the ques-
tion is whether they have the wind
to go the rest of the way.
* *
THE CHAMPION Dodgers are
a sound, experienced club withj
hap-hazard pitching. The boom-
ing bats have saved them many a
game, and will continue to do so.
They'll be hard to take out, de-I
spite a grinding and creaking at
various spots where age is taking
its toll.

By The Associated Press
MILWAUKEE - Everybody hit
safely except Eddie Mathews, the
major's co-leader in the runs bat-
ted in department, as the Milwau-
kee Braves exploded yesterday for
an 11-1 victory over Cincinnati to
move back within one game of
the idle Brooklyn Dodgers in the
National League pennant race.
The Braves, blasting two Red-
legs' pitchers for 13 hits, snapped
their own eight-game home losing
streak before 14,121 fans who
boosted thepaid attendance for
29 dates in the stadium here to
730,053.
* * *
JIM WILSON, veteran right-
hander, held the hard-hitting
Redlegs to four hits.
The lone Cincinnati run was
Ted Kluszekski's 24th homer of
the year which opened the sec-
ond inning. The blast returnedj
Kluszewski to the top spot inf
the majors' home run derby and!
was his second here in two days.
Milwaukee scored in all but the
second and third innings, blast-
ing starter Fred Baczewski for six
runs on three hits and tagging
Frank Smith for the final five
runs on three hits in the eighth.

CUBS 10, CARDS 3
CHICAGO - Third baseman
Ransom Jackson smashed two
homers and ;started a seven-run
eighth inning with a bases-loaded
single as the Chicago Cubs troun-
ced the third-place St. Louis Car-
dinals, 10-3, yesterday.
The Cubs' big inning shattered
a 3-3 deadlock and gave reliefer
Dutch Leonard his second victory.
VICTIM OF the Cards' sixth
defeat in 11 games with the Cubs
was Al Brazle, second of five hurl-
ers who followed starter Harvey
Haddix.
Jackson's homers, his 11th
and 12th, came with none
aboard in the second and sev-
enth innings to give the Cubs
leads of 2-0 and 3-1.
The Cards tied it up at 3-all
with a two-run eighth which cha-
sed Cub starter Turk Lown and
brought on Leonard. The ill-fated
Brazle started, but never finish-
ed, the eighth.

homers by Del Ennis and Eddie
Waitkus, hurled his 10th victory
of the season yesterday for the
Philadelphia Phillies, a 5-1 ver-
dict over the New York Giants.
Konstanty, who won most valu-
able player honors in the national
league in 1950 as a record setting
relief artist, is staging a comeback
this year as a full time starter.
He allowed seven hits, one of
which was Bobby Thomson's
11th home run of the season in
the second inning.
Larry Jansen started for New
York and was charged with his
seventh loss of the campaign.
