While Sox And Yankees Open Big Series NEW YORK, UP — It was now or never today for the White Sox who still have a chance to win the American league pennant if they can maintain their magic touch over the Yankees in Yankee Stadium. Five games behind with time running out on them, the whizzing W’hite Sox hoped to* improve on a streak which began last season and which\ has found them winning nine games in a row in the Bronx palace where the Yankees usually are invincible.

The gossip aboui Connie Johnson, White Sox rookie Negro pitched, who was to work today, especially impressed him. “I hear he’s reai fast,” he said. “They tell me he’s a real good pitcher and he must be or that fellow (Chicago manager Paul Richards) wouldn’t be starting him. That gives! them five good pitchers and they’re tough enough to beat as it is.’’ In the 5-2 triumph over the Tigers Thursday the Yankees stranded 11 men on the paths. Lefty Bill Miller, making his* first start since coming back from Kansas City, pitched a five-hitter and had a shutout until the Tigers put together three hits hi the eighth. The Yankees went in front 2-0 on a two-Yun double by Phil Rizzuto and added a pair more on a single by Billy Martin and a double by Miller in the fourth. The White Sox swept their series with Philadelphia, winning 6-4 with a five run rally in the eighth, as Sam Mele, pinch-hitter Johnson,, and Shenri Lo4sar drove in runs with key hits. Lollar sent in two with his secohd double of the day. | J The Browns edged Boston. 8-7, in 10 innings when Bobby Young homered after Ted Williams, making his first appearance since returning frtom Korea, fouled out as a pinch-hitter to end a three-run 'Red Sox rally in the ninth. Don Lenhardt and Vern Stephens also homered for St. Ixiuis. Spec Shea pitched a six-hitter as Washington beat Ceveland 4-1 and Jack Jensen drove in two runs with three hits.
