Phillies Drop Brooklyn From National Lead YORK, UP — That old battle cry of “wait ’til next year" ws backfiring on the Broqklyn Dodgers today—at least in Phila delphia. no matter badly things go with the Dodgers, the always rally around and ins|)t that “next year" things will )>| better. But the FhiH les apparently haven’t heard that ancient: F&tbush proverb. Because Lhey definitely are making things worse fOt the Dodgers. Wednesday night as the Phils mgde it two victories in a row with a wellearned triiimph, : manhandled Billy Loes, the rl|ht handed pitcher who had subjected them to all sorts of indig-> nii'ies in 1952. Loes shut out the Phillies three times last season and had a string of 35 1-3 consecutive scoreless innings against them when he took the mound. But the Phils very prbnwtly began to tatoo him with bake hits and knocked him out of thfe box with a three-run rally in thfe fourth, climaxed by Willie Jbnes’ two-run homer. The Phils made 13 hits, Granny Hanner collecting thr ( ee to set the pale as Karl Drews, who generally is effective against, Brooklyn, grafted his first win of the year. He yielded four of Brooklyn’s sevefT hits in the seventh, but rebounded brilliantly in the eighth to j-strike out Jack Robinson, Roy CgiYipanella, and Carl Furillo in siiccession. The Cardinals moved into a fir?| tie with the Phillies by defeating the Reds, 8-3, at St. Louis, the Giants topped the Pirates. 4-2, ,and the Milwaukee B pounced the Cubs. 15-G. te American league, the i\nade it six wins in their en startk by drfteatihg' the :, 6-2, while Chicog handed its fifth straight defeat, aftd Philadelphia topped Washington. 7-4, \ Bend Mizell struck out seven and scattered seven hits in thS Cardinal victory as Ehos Sigiighter hiV a two-run triple and doubles by Solly Hemus, Red Sclioendjenst. and (Ray Jablonski wqte in the instrumental blowk. Ed Mathews was the big batsman for ,the Braves, driving in six runs with two homers and a double; in ft long-ball hitting spree in which Jftck Dittmer also hit! a Milwaukee homer with two aboard while Preston "Ward and Hank Saber homered for Chicago. Max Snrkont breezed to his second yictorj'. johnny Mize sparked a four-run eighth inning rally with a piojch single tn which Loren Babe, rookie third hasemft. also hit a two-run single as the Yankees again beat ' —
the Red Sox. Vic Raschi pitched a seven-hitter for his first win.Bftbe earlier hil his first big league homer. , j Pro Net League Bars Spivey From Playing BOSTON UP — ; The National Basketball Association today rejected.
