By The Associated Press
BOSTON - Jackie Jensen's
dramatic two-run double in the
eighth inning gave the Boston
Red Sox a 6-4 victory over first-
place Chicago yesterday in a
r tense battle.
With the score tied 4-4, two out
and the count two strikes, Jensen
powered his long drive off reliefer
Dixie Howell.
The play was set up when Billy
Goodman singled and advanced on
first baseman Walt Dropo's error
on an attempted pickoff. Billy
Klaus struck out but Ted Williams
was given an intentional pass.
INDIANS 2, YANKEES 1
NEW YORK-A two-run homer

Cleveland Indians a 2-1 victory
over the New York Yankees in
their important series for second
place in the American League.
Woodling, peddled to Baltimore
last November and picked up by
game-deciding smash in the fourth
inning, scoring Al Smith, who had
walked.

SYRACUSE, N. Y. (P)-Tommy
"Hurricane" Jackson, a tireless
dancing man, swarmed over Ez-
zard Charles last night and shook
off the former champion's heavy
bombs to win a unanimous deci-
sion in a fiercely fought 10-round
match at War Memorial Audi-
torium.
Charles. weighed 19112, Jackson
1913/4
Although the 34-year-old Char-
les hit Jackson with everything
he had, landed cleanly on the chin
with his right and dug the left to
the body, he never could bring
him down.
Hurricane vs. Tornado
Instead of dropping, the Hurri
cane man would fade back for a
second and then resume his con-
stant flicking jab.
In the final round they really
went at it, Charles shooting the
works with every punch he threw.
Referee Ruby Goldstein scored
it 6-4, Judge Dick Fazio had it
8-2 and Judge Ted Shiels 6-2-2,
all for Jackson. The AP card
was for Jackson, 6-4.
Hambletonian

WASHINGTON ()-The Amer-
ican Automobile Assn., citing the
recent Lemans, France tragedy
and the death of Bill Vukovich in
the Indianapolis Speedway classic
as contributing reasons, announc-
ed yesterday it was getting out of
the automobile racing business.
The AAA has directed nearly all
the major auto races in this coun-
try since 1902.
In announcing the organization's
action, President Andrew J. Sor-
doni of Wilkes-Barre, Pa., said:
Benefits Questionable
"Racing has unquestionably be-
come a popular spectacle in the
United States, but there is serious
question that racing contributes
in a material way to better cars or
better parts for cars."
Sordoni said "there can be no
doubt" that the disaster at Le-
mans, France, in which 79 were
killed and 91 hurt was a factor in
the AAA decision.
"All who have a knowledge- of
racing events in this country know
that it 'could happen here.' The
AAA feels that it should no longer
be identified with this activity."
To Finish Year
Sordoni said the organization
would fulfill all its commitments
for the current racing year but
that at the end of the year it will
"disassociate" itself from all auto
racing in this country.
Officials of the AAA said the
organization gives its sanction to
only about 10 per cent of auto
races in this country, but noted
that these are the principal events,
including the Indianapolis "500.'
The AAA's contest board, which
has been active since 1902, has

races with high honors going to
the champions.
An Automotive Hall of Fame
was set up a few years ago by the
AAA.
A spokesman for the organiza-
tion said the AAA is "hopeful that
auto racing will go on in this
country."
He said the AAA believes some
other organization may decide to
get into the field and insist on
high standards in the races.
The AAA has not put up money
for the racing championships but
it has set up a contest board ben-
evolent fund for the benefit of
injured drivers.
The spokesman said that "ob-
viously" the death of Bill Vuko-
vich in this year's Indianapolis
race also played a part in the
organization's decision.
The contest board will be con-
tinued as a "standing board" and
will concern itself with "the cer-

World Record
OSLO () -Roger Moens of
Belgium, bettered the world
record for 800-meters Wednes-
day night at Bislett Olympic
Stadium with a time of 1:45.7.

by Rudolf Harbig of Germany
in 1939.
tification of records and other
activities of concern to the motor-
ist as a consumer."
Emphasis on Power
Sordoni said in a statement:
"It was the feeling of our execu-
tive committee that automobile
racing as now conducted in this
country, with emphasis on speed,
power and human endurance, is
not conpatible with one of the
main objectives of the AAA and
its affiliated clubs in the day-to-
day promotion of street and high-
way safety.
"We recognize, of course, that
automobile racing will continue
and our action is taken without
prejudice to racing, when conduct-
ed under the highest possible safe-
ty standards."
At Indianapolis, officials of the

the 40th 500-mile race will go on
as scheduled next May 30 and
predicted that other major races
will be continued also.
Referring to the AAA action.
Speedway owner Anton Hulman
Jr. said, "I don't see any reason
why it should affect the 500."
He predicted that some new
sponsoring group will be set up to
take over the duties formerly
handled by the AAA contest board.
Hulman said yesterday's action
came as a complete surprise to
him.
Col. Arthur W. Herrington of
Indianapolis, chairman of the AAA
contest board, said he will discuss
with officers of the Sports Car
Club of American the possibility
that the group might sponsor the
500-mile race.
Herrington said the SCCA is the
only existing club that would be
likely to qualify for sanction by
the Federation Internationale Au-
tomobile. The FIA sanctions the
500 and other big races throughout
the world.
NASCAR Also Possibility
There were indications the Na-
tional Assn. of Stock Car Auto
Racing may try to take over the
role the AAA has occupied.
Bill France, NASCAR president,
said at Daytona Beach, Fla., all
AAA drivers and car owners are
welcome to compete in NASCAR-
sanctioned events if they meet
qualifications.
That includes an agreement to
race exclusively in NASCAR-
sanctioned races.

CHICAGO (P) - The Chicago
White Sox yesterday heard the
good news that their ace right-
hander, Dick Donovan, was on his
feet after an emergency appendec-
tomy Saturday night and will start
light workouts next Monday.
General Manager Frank Lane
said that Donovan felt so good at
Mercy Hospital that his doctor
indicated he might return to the
Sox lineup in a couple of weeks.
Donovan, 27, owner of a fine
13-4 record, had been expected to
be out at least one month.

heat from 10 rivals, coming down
the stretch to beat out a 21-1 shot
named Leopold Hanover by a half
length.
Then, with everyone expecting
Scott Frost to really chill his op-
position in the second mile spin an
hour later, little Joe O'Brien had
to rely on all his driving skill and
the heart of a real champion to
grab a head verdict over Galo-

ting.

second dash as 2:00 3-5, which
