Newcombe allowed only four hits in recording his 16th victory of the season. It gave the defend- ing world champions three out of four in the vital set with the Braves, who were held without an earned run in the last 25 in- nings of the series. Campanella wrapped up the game with a two-run homer in Redlegs 10, Giants 2 NEW YORK - Stan Palys had a perfect day at bat for Cincin- nati with five hits while Ray Ja- blonski slammed a bases loaded homer as the second-place Red- legs thumped the New York Gi- ants, 10-2, to move within one game of the National League lead. Back-to-back home runs by Ja- blonski and Palys in a big six-run seventh inning highlighted a Cin- cinnati rally that brought victory and gave the Redlegs a split in the four-game series. Cards 7, Pirates 5 PITTSBURGH - The St. Louis Cardinals clobbered Pittsburgh pitching for four runs in the third inning and three runs in the eighth, including a home run by Stan Musial, as the Cards handed the Pirates their eighth consecu- tive defeat, 7-5. The Cards hammered Pirate ace Bob Friend for four runs with seven hits in the third. They got three more in the eighth when Musial homered for one marker, and winning pitcher Herm Wehmeier singled in two more. White Sox 5, Senators 4 CHICAGO - Les Moss' home run with two men on in the sixth inning gave the Chicago White Sox a 5-4 victory over the Wash- ington Senators. A walk to Larry Doby and a single by Walt Dropo preceded Moss' homer off Bob Wiesler, the starting and losing pitcher. The Sox scored their other runs in the third on a double by Luis Apari- cio, a walk to Nellie Fox and a double by Doby. Ellis Kinder, 42-year-old relief pitcher, received credit for the victory, his 100th as a major leaguer. * * * A's 3, Orioles 2 ..KANSAS CITY -- Harry Simp- son homered with one aboard and Enos Slaughter hit a pinch single to drive in another run and give the Kansas City Athletics a 3-2 victory over the Baltimore Orioles. Slaughter's pinch hit accounted for the A's third run in their three-run seventh.

SPORTS SHORTS: Golfers Headed bThomson Cerda CHICAGO (A)-The president of the United States Olympic Asso- ciation yesterday registered a "very firm" protest with the In- ternational Olympic Committee against its startling anti-pro pledge for Olympic contestants. K. L. "Tug" Wilson, U. S. Olym- pic chief, said he did this in a conference with another Chicago- an, Avery Brundage, who is I.O.C. president and apparently a prime supporter of the pledge. Rule Just Publicized The new rule, adopted in Janu- ary but first given wide publicity Wednesday in an Australian dis- patch, will require that all en- tries in the 1956 Olympic at Mel- bourne must sign this pledge: "I, the undersigned, declare on my honor that I am and intend to remain an amateur and fulfill the condtiions stipulated by the Olympic rules." Brundage said he would issue a statement for release in Sunday papers and his only comment yesterday was to assure Wilson that the pledge would not harass Olympic contestants who plan to become physical education teach- ers or coaches. Games in Late Fall The games are set for Nov. 22- Dec. 8 at Melbourne. "This morning, I registered a very firm protest wtih the Execu- tive Committee of the I. O. C. against enforcement of the rule, stating I believed that further study should be given to all of St. Louis Gets All-Star Game NEW YORK (P) -- The 1957 major league All-Star game was The mushrooming controversy over the anti-pro pledge finds a ready warrior in Brundage, whose entire career as an arch-propo- Draft Board Calls Konno DETROIT (P) -- Former Olym- pic champion Ford Konno says he may miss the 1956 Olympic swim- ming team tryouts next week be- cause he has been drafted into the army, Konno, who won the 1,500 me- ter championship at Helsinki in 1952, said his draft board had or- dered him to report for induciton Monday.

High-Sounding in Principle The general reaction, was that the new Olympic pledge is high- sounding in principle, but ques- tionable in practice, E. K. Billy Holt, technical di- rector of the 1956 games, said yesterday at Melbourne he was "a little bit puzzled how the In- ternational Olympic Committee is going to apply the rule." Apparently, the pledge was in- cluded so as to halt amateur ath- letes from using the Olympics as a springboard to fame and fortune in professional careers.

Bobby Avila hit an inside the park homer for the Indians and Preston Ward, Rocky Colavito and Chico Carrasquel blasted four- baggers out of the park to ac- count for all the runs. It was Cleveland's third straight triumph over the American League leaders after losing the series opener. Tom Sturdivant, the Yankee starter, was relieved by Dion Lar- sen after pitching four innings in which he allowed six hits, includ- ing four home runs. * * * Red Sox 18, Tigers 3 DETROIT - Muscular Jackie Jensen drove in nine runs - two short of the American League record - with a home run, triple, single and sacrifice fly as the Boston Red Sox overwhelmed the Detroit Tigers, 18-3.

FOOTO CrS For travel or storage Study Shows Milwaukee's Improvement Under Haney By WHITNEY MARTIN Associated Press Sports Writer NEW YORK -- We have been doing a little checking to find out how the Milwaukee Braves have been doing since they reopened under new management June 16. Fred Haney took over as man- ager June 15 and Charley Grimm went fishing, and at the time Milwaukee had won 24 and lost 22 for a .522 average. Then came the astonishing 11- game winning streak. When it ended June 26 the record was 35 victories and 22 defeats for a .614 average.' As of now the Braves are leading re Standings NATIONAL LEAGUE the league with 57-37-.606, which means that since the winning bingej ended they have played pretty con- sistent baseball, traveling along at a .595 pace with 22 victories and 15 defeats. That puts you right into pennant contention any year. Since Haney took over, Milwau- kee has been playing at an overall pace of .687, The above figures might seem to put Grimm in a bad light, but we have no intention of doing that. We're just stating facts, and there is no way of proving that the sud- den improvement of the club wouldn't have been noted had Grimm remained as pilot. Due to Start Winning The Braves were due to start winning. They were too good a team to be hovering around the .500 mark. Haney, during the early winning streak after he took over, dis- claimed credit for the upsurge, say- ing he was doing nothing that Grimm wouldn't have done, Which may have been true.
