Senators Hand Yanks Pair Os ) ■ I Losses Sunday NEW YORK, UP—The Yankees began today to feel a damaging after-effect of their nine-game losing streak —the fact that the rest of the American league discovered they are merely human beings after all. 1 That streak was a definite psychological boost to long suffering also-ran clubs who usually get pounded to pieces by the Yankees. Now, because the Yankees havb I shown they can lose with consistency, too, the other clubs dpn’t tighten up and that will cost the champs many a victory as the season progresses. ' Sunday in Washington, the Senators, who had beaten the Yankees only twice while losing seven games to them‘this season, beat them twice, 4-0 and 5-4, and cut their first place margin to 5% games over secohd\place Chicago. J What’s more the Senators did it with a couple of Yankee castoffs. Bob Porterfield, w,ho has become one of the top pitchers in the majors. shut out his ex-mates with five hits for his 10th victory in the opener. It also was his fifth shutout and his second blank job in a row. Victim of the defeat was Allie Reynolds, who was batted out in the second innihg after Washington had scored all of its In the second game, lefty Johnny Schmita pitched five-hit relief ball for six innings to gain his victory ovler his old buddies. Jackie Jansen’s double and Gerry Snyder’s single drove in what proved tio be the winning run in the seventh. Chicago stayed a game ahead of third-place Cleveland by winning a 4-0 sAcond game on Billy Pierce’s five-fitter. after the Indians came from behind with four runs in the seventh to win the opener, ’ 7-6. Minnie Minoso had put Chicago in front 6-3 with two homers in the opener but Cleveland pounded reliever Harry Dorish for the big rally to win. Geor’ge' Strickland drove in three runs with four hits. Bob Elliott set the hitting pace for Pierce’s 10th victory, driving in two runs with a homer and single. Detroit, which hadn’t won a game from St. Louis, all season, took a pair by 10-7 and 7-1 counts to move within a gajne of seventh place while Boston drubbed the Athletics. 10-2, with an eight-run first inning rally. In the National league, the Giants \ahnosit chased the Dodgers out of the Polo' Grounds with a IC-hiit 20-6 victory and a league high for the season in runs scored. Milwaukee moved to within I*£ games of the first place Dodgers by splitting with St. Louis, winning 4-0, then losing. 4-1. Chicago out-slugged Cincinnati 8-4 with 15 hits, then lost 8-6 as Cincinnati got 15 hits. The Phils topped Pittsburgh 2-0 in 10 innings as Robin Roberts won his 13th game by scattering 10 hits, then trailed 7O’ in a six inning second game which was suspended by the Pennsylvania curfew law and will be completed on Aug, 11. Hank Thompson batted in seven runs with two homers and Al Dark. Bobby Thomson and Daryl Spencer also homered for the Giants in their massacre. Wayne Belardi homered for Brooklyn. . Ed Mathews and Johnny lx»gan hit two-run homers as Warren Spahn pitched a three-hitter for his 10th victory in Milwaukee’s opener. Mathews’ homer was his 24th. St. Louis took the second game on a four-run rally in the eighth in which Red Schoendienst hit a three-run pinch homer and Stu Miller pitched six-hit ball for his third victory. Bubba Church pitched two-hit ball until he tired in the eighth in Chicago’s opening victory. The Cubs made four homers, two by Ralph Kiner, who now has 18, and one each by Hank Sauer and Bill Serena in the second game but lost aslGus Bell set Cincinnati's batting pace with three hits and Andy Seminick delivered a tworun homer. Roberts scattered 10. hits and started the? winning rally with a double in the opener at Pittsburgh scoring on Connie Ryan’s single. 'Richie Ashburn’s single drove in Ryan with a cushion run. Jim Waugh, making his first start for the held the Phils to six hits .in curfewed second game in which Pittsburgh scored five runs in the first inning, batting around. Boston made 13 hits, seven in the first fining, in to their victory at Philadelphia. Dick Gernert hit his 14th homer, a double and single to lead the way to Mel Parnell’s lith victory, a slick six-hitter. Ted Gray. after losing nine straight games, won his fourth in a row in the; nightcap for Detroit with a four-hitter after the Tigers outslugged the Browns to win the opener. A six-run rally in the sixth clinched things. Ray Boone started Gray off to victory with a tworun .homer in the third inning of the second game.

There was growing belief that both Robertsoii and Rhee realized they had reached an impasse but that each was reluctant to break off the negotiations. They last were reported ito be deadlocked on Rhee’s demand for the United Stat r 3 to resume the war if a post-armistice political conference shows no progress in unifying Korea after 90 days of talking. Robertson already has told Rhee he could give no that American troops would start shooting again but he said the United States would recess the conference if the Reds used stalling tactics. ; 1 I Robertsoir said he and RJiee would meet again. Immediately” after their meeting, Rhee called his cabinet to the mansion. Other major developments in the truce crisis: 1. Vice President Edward Kardelj of Yugoslavia said Rhee was wrong in attempting to prevent

an armistice at a time when international tension is lessening. 2. The steering committee of India’s government party drafted a resolution urging a “very'early” meeting of the U. N. general assembly to overrule Rhee i and reach a truce. 3. The U. N. prison command at Pusan announced that »four American soldiers and four Communist North Koreans had been injured in two July 4 prison incidents and a non-Coihmunist i;

prisoner had been hanged, apparently a suicide. 1 4. Rhee’s office announced \the 1 receipt of “highly encouraging” 1 letters from all over the world.

He had been given an elaborate chemistry set some time ago, but his parents had talked him out of a plan then to make gunpowder. He began mixing potassium chlorate, sulphur and saltpeter Saturday while his father worked beneath the car nearby and his sister played in the yard outside. Suddenly there was an explosion that shook the garage, shattered the windows and wrecked his! work-® ing table. Robert staggered backward, with his right hand blown away and the left badly mangled. His father. Charles, was nrrarhentarily deafened by the blast and was treated at a hospital A neighbor applied tourniquet's and called an ainbulapCe. Doctors . had to amputate the/left hand.
