Braves Regain [ League Lead On Twin [Triumphs j ; NEW YORK, UP — Somebody but the Dodgers better get into the act or therei could be a Milwaukee walkaway to match the Yankee runaway in the major league pen-] nant races. The Braves were back in first place today, seven percentage! points ahead of Brooklyn, after twice siniting the third place Phillies, 6-0 and] 5-3, on a combination of timely home runs and effective pitching. They now have (yon five out of seven, on their current eastern road stand, two out of three from Brooklyn and three out of four from the Phils. The Dodgprs lost ground, even though they won. 10-1, from the fourth place Cardinals in a single game, and the fifth place Giants skidded badly by dropping 10-5 and 5-2 decisions to the lagt place Cubs. Cincinnati won jtwp from Pittsburgh, 6-1. and 11-6 to extend its winning streak to four games, its longest of the year. In the American league where it takes a fan with a sharp memory to recall when the Yankees last lost a game, thd New Yorkers made it 11 in a row by toppling the Browns twice, ,9-2 and 7-2. Cleveland more or less kept pace 5% games in arrears by coming from behind twice to defeat Philadelphia. 8H and 4-3, while i]Washington crushed Chicago 16-’, then lost 5-1. Detroit equalled the longest losing streak in its histpry by dropping its (13th in a row to Boston. 4-1. The 1920 Tigers lost the first 13 games they played, ; Lefty Johnny Antonelli pitched a slick five-hitter forj his sixth victory and Sid Gordon. Andy ;Pafko, Ed Mathews, and Ebba St. iClaire hjt Milwaukee homers. Mathews' was his 16th, putting him one behind Roy Campanella of Brooklyn for the major league lead. In the second game; after a homer by Willie Jones put Philly in front 2-0, the Braves countered with a two-run homer by pinchi-hitter George Crowe and a bases-iempty blast by Johnny Logan as Bob Buhl gained the victory in (relief. I It was his fourth. Carl Erskine picthed four hit ball and the Brooks collected 15 in an easy decision over the sCards. who now have lost five in a row. Gil Hodges hit his seventh homer and every Dodger starter got at least one hit. Jackie Robinson collected three. : .V. Ralph Kineij drilled his first two homers as a Cub to set the pace for the first victory in which Dee Fondy got a 470-foot inside-the-park homer and Eddie Miksis also hit one. Warren Hacker'with three scoreless innings of relief help from Dutch .Leonard, was the vic- ; tor. Turk picked up ttye second game victory in a relief role in a seven-inriing affair shortened because of dafkness. Cincinnati pounded out 2P| i hits in its two triumphs at Pittsburgh including 13 in the opener as Bud Podbielan breezed to his fourth straight win. Winning pitcher Joe Nuxhall hit a three-run hompr and Ted Kluszewski blasted his 15th to pace the Ohioans in the second' game. The Yankees crushed the Browns with two big ipnings. They broke loose 'from !a 2-2 tie in the opener with five runs in the seventh when Yogi Berra delivered a grand slam pinch-homer. Billy Martin and Gil McDougald homered and the Browns got a pair from Jim Dyck. . t ln the second game t]ie Yankees scored seven runs in- the sixth. Gene Woodling's two-run single and Mickey Mantle’s two-run double being the big blows. Yankee lefty aces Ed Lopat in the opener and Whitey Ford in the second game, each chalked up their sixth straight triumphs without a defeat. Bob Feller gave the A’s a 4-0 lead on homers by Gus Zernial and Eddie Joost, but Cleveland came back swiftly .with a five run (rally that featured Wally Westlake’s two-run double and homers by Bill Glynn and Joe' Tipton to give him enough margin for his second victory—a six-hlltter. In the second game, relief pitcher Dave Hoskins gained the decision when Cleveland put over 1 three runs, two unearned, in the: seventh. Bob Avilai’s double drove in the winning run. The Senators made 17 hits; including homers by Ed Yost (and Jackie Jensen; to give Bob Porterfield an easy, seventh victory in the opener. In the second game, relief specialist Harry Dotish started for the first time and turned in a five-hitter to end a six-

Sammy Snead Seeks U. S. Open Title OAKMONT, Pa. UP — Slammln’ Sammy Snead goes cut after the only major golf title he never has won Tuesday when the first Os two qualifying lounds of tffe U,SI Open Is played and it looked likie now or never for the West Virginia hillbilly. Not only is timefrunning but on Snead, who has been trying for the championship -for 16 years, 'but this could be the end of the line for him as one of the world’i best golfers. He has n hand injury that could keep him from getting back to the top — even if he is able to continue to play regularly. Snead is going out aifter this one under the handicap of a broken hone in this left hand which has not healed properly. Surgery will be necessary to correct the ailment and if that is not successful he may be through. So this is the 'biggest one;of all for Snead, and while he is not alibing in advance, he admitted that his hand was giving hini trouble. ‘‘lt hurts,” he said, "especially when I lose my grip on a clii-b.’’ The fact that the broken hand bad not healed properly wds nor discovered until several weeks ago and Snead decided, that despite the pain, he would postpone any Operation until after the Open. For this is the one Championship he (wants most of all. It figures to be a tough row for him to hoe. evbn if he was in the best of shape. He is the first to admit that the (going will be rough. “1 think that when they roll the greens and hide the flags, it is one of the toughest, if ndt the toushest course, in the United States," Snead said Sunday] after he toured the Oakmont Cbuntry
