Boston Braves Take lead In Nationalloop New York, May 9 —.(UP) — The hustling Boston Braves were in first place today, despite the fact that Billy Southworth’s feared slug-gers-are in a hitting slump, because his pitchers have been turning tn some phenomenal work. • night righthander Max Surkont stood off the Cincinnati Peds with just six hits iH“*a, 2 to 1 vic-to)-y. Sid Gordon, hitlesS sihce May 4, broke up the game in the ninth With a homer and he also drove in the pther Boston run with a single. It was fourth victory against one defeatThe Braves also made' only six hits, recovering only mildly from the no-hit, no-run job which Pittsburgh’s Cliff Chambers turned in against them Sunday. But] when you get the kind of pitching tihv the Braves' hurlers have been tvir’ying in, the sluggers donk have* to be .too merciless. The Giants knocked the Cardinals out of the lead and also pulled tHemselves tmt of last place ahead of Cincinnati with a 6 to 2 victory at New York. Pittsburgh humiliated the Phillies. 9 to 3, and the Cubs edged Brooklyn, 2 to 1. while in the ohly American league games Detroit made it two straight over the Yankees. 6 to 5 in IL Innings, and the | Athletics drubbed Chicago, 9 to A A Jansen, winning his first game since opening day, pitched four-hit ball to give the Giants their seventh victory in the last nine games. He had a no-hitter until Staji (who else?) Musial broke it up With a fifth inning homer. A brilliants ielding play by second baseman Eddie Stankey, who threw out a runner while flat on his gack, cut short a later Cardinal rally. The Giants made 11 hits. 11, 4 ■ Hank Sauer’s two-run first inning homer Wrecked an otherwise wellpitched game by Carl Erskine and gaive the Cubs their tiiumph over the Dodgers in Brooklyn. Erskine gave up only three of Chicago’s four hits, in seven Winnings. Rookie Bob Schultz. who looks 1 like a pitcher to be reckoned with —and soon—yielded nine hits but. bore down dowm when in trouble to win his third game. * J . Mel Queen stood iMiillies on their heads with- one-nit ball until the seventh inning while the Pirates backed him up with 10 hits including Ralph Kine Y's fourth homer.

Herbert gave up only one hit and no runs in the three innings he worked- Wertz and Mike Ginsberb hit Tiger homers while Hank Bauer, with two, and Jackie Jensen with one, (ound .the range off Detroit starter Ted Gray f Little Bobby Shantz finally received the hitting support he had lacked in other starts and had no trouble winning his firit game at Chicago.
