Refuse To Comment ] On Kiner Extortion PITTSBURGH. UP —The federal bureau of investigation today refused comment'on an investigation of a $6,300 extortion plpt aimed at the Pittsburgh Pirates’ slugging outfielder, Ralph Kiner. The home run king also was directed not to comment on the case, •in which . an anonymous writer threatened Kiner’s life if he did not deliver the money to a suburban school early Saturday morning of last week. An FBI agent, posing as the handsome slugger, kept the. appointment while other agents lurked in the shadows, but the ex-, tort ion is t failed to appear. I Although the Pirate outfielder. Said he was very nervous while playing Saturday against the Brooklyn Dodgers, he cracked out his 27th home run and then Sunday hit No., 28 In the first game Os a double-header with the Boston \Braves. ' Forbes Field bleacher fans received a scare shortly before game time Sunday when a prankster threw a firecracker onto the play-; ing field, neaV Kiner’s position. However, “Mr. Slug’’ was in the dugout at the time.

Henry Reus's, Milwaukee attorney, has been in the campaign since last fall. Thomas Fairchild, former state attorney general, entered the field the final day for filing nomination papers. He dropped his job as U. S. district attorney for the western district of Wisconsin.

Although he’s "been ordered to do nothing more active than take a walk at the Northern Wisconsin lodge where he is staying, McCarthy has been active. He bps been meeting supporters and making numerous telephone calls to his Washington staff and to his backers in Wisconsin.

Dodgers Beat Cards, Snap Winning Skein By UNITED PRESS > Brooklyn served notice on the Giants and ' Cardinals today that they were running behind schedule jin the miracle department. If either club catches the Dodgers now, it wilt be an even bigger achievement than the job the Giants did in 1951 when they ’picked themselves up from a 13 1-2 game deficit and won the flag in a playoff. Tiday the Dodgers could taunt both clubs with the fact they were 8 1-2 games in front, whereas last year when the Giants were beginning to roll in high gear in their drive, they had shaveu the Dodgermargin at this stage to 7 1-2 games. t '7 What’s more. Brooklyn scored a convincing triumph Sunday against the up-start Cardinals, who have shown much more tendency than thej Giants to make a fight of it. They topped the Cardinals 10 to 4, ending their eight game winning streak and wrecking Manager Eddie Stanky’s plans to “make it 15 in a row.” Stanky cockily had set the goal for the Cardinals after they trimmed the Giants two in a row last week and ousted them from second place. But when the Brooks came to town they sent out their revived lefty ace, Preacher Roe, and he responded with his 10th triumph against just one defeat, although he had to have relief help from the ever-ready rookie, Joe Black. George Shuba and Duke Snider hit \ homers in the 14*hit Brooklyn attack -and when Gil Hodges made an unassisted double play, the Dodgers set a new National League record with twin killings in 19 straight games. The old mark of 18 was set in 1950 hy, the Cubs. - \ The Yankees, meanwhile, again bounded ahead in the American League, topping the Tigers 4 to 72' while the Indians suffered a bruising 9 to 8 setback in 16 innings at Washington. That put New York twx> full games in front of Cleveland again. The Red Sox :took two from the Browns, 2 to 1 in 10 innings when Manager Lou Boudreau home the winning run, and 12 to 1 to go within four games of the top. The Athletics topped the White Sox 5 .to 1 on Carl Scheib's four-hitter 1 after Chicago won the opener, 11 to 7 with a 15-hit attack on four pitchers. Y The Giants stayed* within nine games of the tbp by winning 6 to ,2, behind rookie Al Qorwin in a seven-inning game halted by darkness after Cincinnati took the opener 5 to 4 with two unearned runs on errors by Wes Westrum
