Pirates Take Second In Row, Haney Jubilant' ’NEW YORK UP — Fred Haney, PHtalburgh’s “Pollyanna” iwho insists the Pirates aren’t as bad a ball club as a lot of people think, rode the express elevator up to Seventh Heaven today because of a two game winning streak. What is so exciting about two straight wins? Well, that just equalled the longest winning streak of the 19-52 Pirates, so if the Bucs could just win again today from Cincinnati, there would be dancing in the streets out Pittsburgh way. | Rookie Frank Thomas broke up Thursday’s gaime with the Cubs, hitting a two-run homer in the ninth to give the Boes a 4-2 triumph. The kid right fielder also hit a grand slam homer last week to provide a victory over the Giants. (Moreover, the Pirates are building a repuftartion as a team that rallies fate and in the clutch — usually hall marks of contending clubs. They were behind until the eighth when they tied the count on doubles by pinch hitter Johnny Lindell and Carlos Bernier. Then Thomas delivered his homer after loser Paul Minner gave up his only walk of the game to Danny O'Connell. Minner drove in both Cub runs with a triple. Elroy Face, the little right hander Pittsburgh pick ed up in the baseball draft meetings from the Dodger organization last winter, was the winner. In other National League gatnes, Bolbby (Hero) Thomson hit a ninth inning homer to give the Giants a 1-0 decision over the Braves: th e Dodgers made it four straight victories with a 7-4 series sweeper over Cincinnati, and the QardinalsPhillies night game at Phladelphla was halted after fve innings beer use of rain whth tne score tied at 1-1. All the action counts ir» the official averages, but the game must be reiplayed completely. The Yankee youth movement took over in a 6-1; victory at Chicago that featured steady eighthit pitching by Whitey Ford and a homer, triple and single by rookie outfielder Bill Renna, who was making Iris first big league start. In the only other American League < game, three-hit pitching by Virgil Trucks and-Bob Elliott's three-run homer in the seventh gave the Browns a 3-1 nighr triumph over the Washington Senators. The Phi 1 , adekphia at Detroit game Was rain ed out and Boston and Cleveland had an open date.

Harridge Has Another Scrap To Work Out CHICAGO UP — American league President Will Harridge, -who-Thursday imposed the heaviest mass fines in league history, may. get a chance today to levy another imposition. The victim this time probably will l>e Chicago White Sox Manager ’ Paul Richards, who objected vehemently Thursday to a ruling by Uanpire Jim Duffy which gave IMickey Mantle, the youthful star -center* fielder of the New York-Yankees, his fourth home run off the year. r ' Mantle’s ball apparently hit the wall sin left ©enter field, about halfway to ite top. And as Mantle pulled up at second base, Duffy /waved him around to score the first run of the game. , Then Richards went into action, apparently jostling Duffy severely in making hie protest. The action ende4 with Richards waved out of the game and with the Sox manager waving “down with Duffy” ag he«headed for tfhe dugout, f “There wasa kid in the first row cif. the bleachers who caught the -ball in his hands,” Duffy said latter, -“and he dropped it right to the tej) of the wall So it had to (be a home run.” Riclijards didn’t see it that way, and said h« guessed he was thrown out pf: the game , “on general principles.? Duffy refused to state whether his report to Harridge would accuse Richards of pushing or jostling Him, but* all th P indications from the umpire as well as his working mate', Bill Grieve, were that Richards will be so accused. --.Hlarrkfg'e .probably .will ideal roughly with,the Sox manager, if* such jostling is charged, as baseball rules prohibit snch action. Harridge levied the first fines of the H)s3 season Thursday, injposing a jtab of >350 on St. Louis catcher Glint COurtney. $350 dn Yankee . infielder Billy Martin| and Browns Infielder Bill Hunter, and 3*oo each on Yankees Allie Reynolds lil McDougald and '‘Joe Gallins.
