BOSTON - Frank Sullivan's
six-hit pitching, aided by Jim
Piersall's two-run single, carried
Boston to a 3-1 victory over Bal-
timore yesterday - the Red .Sox'
eighth triumph in nine games.
The victory moved the winners
into second place in the American
League - 8% games behind the
New York Yankees.

Yanks 15, Senators 7
WASHINGTON - New York's
league-leading Yankees flung all
their hitting power against Wash-
ington's dragging Senators yester-
day afternoon and scored a 15-71
slugfest victory in which Mickey
Mantle smashed his 39th homer of
the season.
Al t o g e t h e r the two teams
banged out 32 hits, with the Yanks
slamming six Washington pitchers
for 20 of them.
Bill Martin socked a two-run
homer for the victors and Andy
Carey walloped one that accounted
for three runs. Both those blows
came in the first inning and gave
the Yanks a five-run lead they
never relinquished.
Mantle belted his homer to
score Yogi Berra ahead of him.
The clout put Mantle 11 games
ahead of Bab Ruth's pace of 1927.
when the Bambino set the record
of 60 for a season.

A's 5, Tigers 3
DETROIT - Home runs by Gus
Zernial and Cletus Boyer carried
the Kansas City Athletics to a
5-3 triumph over the Detroit Ti-
gers yesterday and broke a six-
game losing streak for the last-
place A's.
Zernial's homer came in the
first inning with two on. Boyer
hit his in the second.
The A's wound up their scoring
in the third inning against starter
Virgil Trucks and failed to hit
safely over the last six innings.

White Sox 9, Indians 2
CHICAGO-The Chicago White
Sox routed Early Wynn in a six-
run seventh inning yesterday to
whip the Cleveland Indians 9-2
and dropthem. into third place in
the American League.
During the seventh. inning, the
Sox equaled the major league rec-
ord for number of players on one
team hit by pitched balls in a
single season. When Art Houtte-
man, in relief for Wynn, hit Min-
nie Minoso with a pitch, it raised
the Sox total of hit batsmen to 59.
This ties the mark set by Wash-
ington in 1921. Minoso has been
the target of 18 of the "plunk-
ings."
The Sox had only a 3-2 lead un-
til the big blowoff in the sixth
which brought them their fourth
straight victory. After walks to
Larry Doby and Jim Rivera, sand-
wiching a single by Minoso, had
loaded the bases, Sherm Lollar
singled for two runs. Walt Dropo's
sacrifice fly scored Rivera, and
when Fred Hatfield singled, Hout-
teman replaced Wynn.
Jack Harshman, the winning
pitcher, singled, scoring Lollar and
sending Hatfield to third from
where he ran ~home on Luis Apar-
icio's sacrifice bunt.

In Olympics
DETROIT (A')-Hawaii's Yoshi
Oyakawa, 'Olympic champion in
the men's 100-meter backstroke,
qualified to defend his title by
winning the finals of the U.S.
Olympic swimrtiing trials last
night in one minute 5.2 seconds-
two-tenths of a second better than
his own Olympic record.
Two other prime favorites in the
event-17-year-old Frank McKin-
ney, Jr. of Indianapolis and tower-
ing Al Wiggins of Pittsburgh-also
made the U.S. team by finishing
second and third, respectively, to
Oyakawa's churning arms.
Earlier yesterday schools girls
Carin Cone and Sylvia Ruuska and
collegian Richard Fadgen contin-
ued the assault on American swim-
ming records in preliminary trials.
Miss Cone, a comely 16-year-old
high school junior from Ridge-
wood, N. J., cut a tenth of a second
off her own mark in leading pre-
liminary trials in the women's 200-
meter backstroke in 1:14.4. She
had done 1:14.5 in the National
AAU at Tyler, Tex., July 7.
Miss Ruuska, 14-year-old daugh-
ter of an immigrant Finnish elec-
trician from Berkeley, Calif., swam
the women's 400-meter freestyle
in 5:10.7, the best ever in the
specialty in the United States.
Fadgin, a Woonsocket, R. I., boy
who attends North Carolina State,
led the men's 200-meter breast-
stroke in 2:44 flat, also a record.
Gridders Set
For All-Star
Tilt Tonight
CHICAGO (P) - Traditionally
the glittering harbinger of the
gridiron season, the annual All-
Star football game tonight, will
send the cream of the 1955 colle-
giate crop against the favored,
and revenge-seeking Cleveland
Browns.
This 23rd contest in a colorful
series will attract an expected
70,000 into Soldier Field and will
be telecast and broadcast (ABC
beginning at 8:30 p.m. EST.)
Brown Seeking Revenge
Paul Brown, still smarting from
a 30-27 upset by the collegians
last, year has whipped his Na-
tional Football League cham-
pions almost into regular season
sharpness to avert what would be
stinging humiliation for the proud
Brown boss - two successive All-
Star game defeats.
Brown has done such a good
job the pros are rated almost a
two-touchdown f a v o r i t e over
Coach Curley Lambeau's galaxy
of 50 hand-picked collegiate stars.
Time Ran Out
Lambeau and his aides, on the
other hand, complain that time
may have run out on them before
the All-Stars jelled to, their full
capabilities.
What makes the All-Stars some-
what a question mark in tonight's
battle is the fact Lambeau has
not been able to settle on a num-
ber one quarterback, like Notre
Dame's Ralph Guglielmi last year.
Good Quarterback Job Expected
He is bound to get something
better than an average job of sig-
nal-calling and passing from a
quarterback corps including Mich-
igan State's Earl Morrall, Navy's
George Welsh," Iowa's Jerry Rei-
chow and Wisconsin's Jim
Haluska.
The game again will be played
under the pros' free substitution
rule.
The pros hold a 13-7 margin in
the series which started in foot-
ball's low -scoring era with a 0-0
tie in 1934 between the All-Stars
and the Chicago Bears.
A key late field goal by Ohio
State's Tad Weed gave the All
Stars the hard-fought victory last
year.

Three Australians and one

finals of the Eastern Grass Court
tennis tournament yesterday as
Vic Seixas and Ham Richardson
kept United States' hopes alive
by rallying for three-set victories.
Michigan's Barry MacKay, win-

the St. Louis Cardinals defeated
the Milwaukee Braves, 5-1, in the
second game of a doubleheader.
The Braves took the first game,
4-1, on the three-hit pitching ofj
rookie Taylor Phillips.
The split put the Braves 1'
games ahead of runnerup Brook-
lyn in the tight National League
race and two games in front of
third-place Cincinnati.
The Braves used four pitchers,
including loser Gene Conley who
was chased in the fifth after'
giving up six hits for four runs.
Tom Poholsky went the route for
the Cardinals and was touched
for'eight hits.
Phillips, now 2-0, walked two
and struck out six, in winning the'
opening game.

Dodgers 7, Pirates 3
PITTSBURGH - The Brooklyn
Dodgers took another step yester-
day toward the top of the National
League, easing past the Pittsburgh
Pirates, 7-3.
Brooklyn's early offense was
aided by three Pittsburgh errors,
and reinforced by a masterful re-
lief pitching job on the part of
Ed Roebuck.
Roebuck relieved Carl Erskine
in the fourth with the score 6-3,
two on and none out. He allowed
only two hits the rest of the way.
One of the eight Pittsburgh hits
was Frank Thomas' homer off
Erskine in the fourth.
Meanwhile the Dodgers were
collecting 13 hits off a parade of
five Pittsburgh pitchers.

Redlegs 5, Cubs 3
CINCINNATI -- The Cincinnati
Redlegs resorted to their favorite
weapon, the home run, again yes-
..:
ball over the right field screen
and the game was over.
It was Lawrence's 16th victory
against four defeats.
Cincinnati used five pitchers in-
cluding Hershell Freeman, who
twisted his neck trying to field
Ernie Banks' grounder. He com-
plained of dizziness immediately
afterward and was taken to Christ
Hospital for X-rays.

Giants 5, Phils 2
NEW YORK - The last-place
New York Giants broke Philadel- 4
phia's six-game winning streak,
5-2, yesterday with an 11-hit at-
tack that included two homers by '
Jackie Brandt and one each by
Willie Mays and Bill White. t
Brandt hit two in successive
times at bat in the fifth and sev-
enth. Mays slugged his in the i
third and White his leading off
the fourth.
Joe Margeroni, young Giant left
hander, was rolling along with a
five-hit shutout until the seventh
when a single by Willie Jones and
Andy Seminick's homer broke his
charm.
JACKIE BRANDT
... two homers stop Phils
terday, to come from behind and
defeat the Chicago Cubs, 5-3.
Until the eighth, Cincinnati had
scored only once off bonus pitch-
er Don Kaiser, and that was a
home run in the second inning by
Eddie Bailey. Then, with two out
and Frank Robinson on base, Ted
Kluszewski hit his 27th homer of
the season -to tie the game.
After Brooks Lawrence, who
went to the mound with one out
in the ninth, again turned back
the Cubs in the extra inning, Rob-

Wininger Leads in Tam O'Shanter
In a statement by E. Roland
Harriman, president of the organ-
ization which has sponsored the
famous stake since its inaugural
in 1926, the society said:
"The directors of the Hamble-
tonian Society were agreed that
the proper place for the Hamble-
tonian is Goshen. However, in
view of the unsatisfactory condi-
tions under which harness racing
is being administered in New York
State at the present time, a con-
tract was awarded for two years
to the Du Quoin State Fair, Du
Quoin, Ill., by a unanimous vote."
New York State Commissioner
George Monaghan and the United
States Trotting Association, which
controls trotting and pacing
throughout the country, have been
feuding ever since the commis-
sioner took office.

The tournament committee
made the course easier for the
first round by sticking the pins
fairly well in the middle of the
greens.
Errie Ball, 45-year-old club pro
at Oak Park, Ill., carved 35-31-66
and Cary Middlecoff, the 1956
National Open champion, shot 32-

In all, 18 players were within'

Women amateurs-Wanda San-
ches of Baton Rouge, Ia., with 78.
Men amateurs - Martin Stano-j

trailed were Sam Snead, clustered
