Pafko Homers In Ninth To Lick Dodgers NEW York UP — Charley Grimm won't come right out and say so but Charley Dressen did it "for him — those madcap Milwaukee Braves “could go all the way.” | Grimm wno realizes it is a long way until the end of September is more optimistic than on his first trip to Brooklyn when he said “We’ll be lucky to make the first division in this league.” Now he has revised his opinion cautiously. He thinks that “We’ve got] the pitching and hitting to be tough ali the way and we have a good chance for the first division.”

But Dressen, who was grim while Grimm w r as dancing a jig in the Milwaukee dressing room, said that Tuesday night’s 4-3 victory for the Braves which snapped a 10gatne Brooklyn winning streak “is just a. good example of how theke guys can hurt you.” The victory put Milwaukee back in first place. "We all better quit kidding and realize this is a club that has to be taken seriously” Dressen said. “Some people say they’ll fade when it gets hot, ! “Why should they? After all they have only two older fellows in the starting lineup in Sid Gordon and Andy Pafko, Look ait us. They were saying Peewee Reese and Jackie Robinson were about through when I came to Brooklyn in 1951. Don’t you think the hot weather is going to bother them, too?” Tuesday night’s victory was supplied personally by ex-Dodger Pafko, who blasted a two-run homer off Russ Meyer in the ninth to give relief pitcher Lew Burdette his third relief triumph in a row. The Phils.moved into third place

as Robin Roberts pitched a sevenhit, 5-0 shutout to displace the Cardinals. It was Roberts’ eighth victory against three defeats and homers by Del Ennis and Granny Hamner in the first inning gave him all the help he needed. Ennis hit his with two on base. The Reds handed! the Giant* their fourth straight defeat 4-2 in 13 innings and Pittsburgh ended a six-game losing streak by pushing Chicago into last place with a 4-3 win in 11 innings. In the American League the Yankees made it five in a row by defeating. Chicago 4-3, St. Louis topped Washington 5-3, the Indians defeated Boston 7-3 and Tigers and A’s played to a 14inning, 7-7 tie in a game ended by curfew. Jim Greeugrass tripled beyond Bobby Thomson in the 13th to drive in- the winning run then scored on a single by Bob Borkowski as Bud Podbilelan held the Giants scoreless after the second inning, gave only seven hits and struck out nine at the Polo Grounds. Frank Thomas hit an 11th inning homer to give relief pitcher John Hetki his first victory of the campaign at Pittsburgh. In the eighth the Pirates came from behind on a two-run single by George Metkovich. Joe Collins hit two Yankee hom-

ers and his second in the ninth Inning supplied Ed Lopat with* the margin for his fifth victory without a| defeat. It marked the fifth Yankee victory in a row and ended a four-game Chicago winning streak against (the New Yorkers. After hot hitter Bill Hunter delivered a two-run single to put St. Louis 4n front, old Satchel Paige came In and pitched- hitless relief ball for 3 innings and gained /bls second victory of the year. Dick Kryhoski hit a St. Louis homer. Al Rosen hit a three-run homer in the eighth to give Mike Garcia a seven-hit decision <rver the Red Sox. It was Garcia's fifth victory. Hoot Evers previously homered for Boston, The A’s had apparently clinched their marathon contest against the Tigers when they scored three runs in the 10th inning, but the Tigers replied with three runs to tie it, again. In the 12th, Pete Suder homered to give the A’s a 7-6 but the Tigers tied again with a run on a walk and singles by Pat Mullin and Johnny Pesky. Military fighter pilots, with some of the latest engine designs, will have more than 4.000 times as much horsepower as did the Wright Brothers on their historic first powered 1 flight at Kitty Hawk. N. C., in 1903. .

I Today's Sport Parade | | (Reg. U. 8. Pat Off.) \ ,By Oscar Fraley ' | . o NIEIW YORK UP — The heavyweight situation was ” best described today as in a “spasm,” proving all over again that some managers are much more entertaining than their fighters. .It still was a neck-and-neck race between Charles and Roland LaSearza as a September title opponent for heavyweight king Rocky Marciano; But tlie managers were doing their bit :o keep the potential customers awake. T1 The Vest Weill announced that there was a veritable “spasm” between himself and promoter Jim Norris. Catch-as-catch-can interpreters figured that Weill means a gap or “chasm.” Meanwhile, Tom Tannas and Jimmy DeAngelo, respective pilots of Charles and LaStarza. stood toe to toe and slugged it out verbally to provide” more action than might be expected in an encounter between their respective heavj’weights. mr.naigers long have been slandered as gents who? wave towelg and admonish thefr warriors that z the other guy “chn't hurt us.” Actually, they’ll surprise you,: every once in a while. (My first jolt came in the dint days of my youth. A classmate decided he was going to be a fight manager and seared up another youngster who had earned > tremendous muscles working on a railroad gang. But Mlien the muscular one showed an aggravating reluctance to learn the elements >of fisticuffs, the would-be manager grabbed the gloves and with one punch decked his hopeful “boy.” “That,” he growled, “is the end of my days as a manager.” You might call it a very brief career. But not so with Tannas and DeAqgelo. Both of them are in there pitching -y- and almost punching — as they try to get the next crack at Marciano. Tannas would seem to have tlie most logical claim. “When Charles had th e title, we defended it against anybody,” he asserted. "We defended eight times in two years, we are the number one contender and, if there is any question, we will fight LaStarza for the right to meet Marciano.” But DeAngelo, despite the fact that he i,sj a dehydrated lightweight. • faced right up to his heavyweight debating opponent, and quavered outrageously:} “We have waited three years to get at Marciano again since the night he won a split decision from us. Charles has had plenty of opportunity. Let him wait.” The feeling around and about is that will yet the .-fight, an outdoor affair in New York come September. Probably it should go to Charles, but the theory is that the old split decision of
