35 Home Runs Are Slugged In Monday's Games NEW YORK (INfl) — Messrs. Ford Frick; Wanren Giles and Will Harridge may swear the ball is not hopped up but major league pitcher* may demand a congressidhW investigation . if they are mauled again as they were in Monday's 35-home run explosion. With few exceptions, the hurlers gladly would have traded their mitte for air raid helmets as the sluggers filled the air with horsehide to fall three short of tying the 17-year-old American League record o* 19 home runs in one day, siji shy of the 25-homer rational League mark and five off the mark for the combined total. Cleveland first... baseman Bill Glynn, who had .knocked in only three runs in 43 games, smacked three homers in one game. His sacrifice fly gave him eight runs batted in durin# the Indians’ 13-10-6 conqnest of Detroit. Irv Norem..Ed Mathews and Randy Jackson each homered twice in one game for their clubs and Dusty Rhodes and Ted Lepdto wound up with two for the day. Mathews’ twin effort came in a seven-homer game which J(ilwaukee won from St. laeuis. 8 to 6. Willie Max - * of the New York Giants got only one but it deadlocked him with Musial for the major league home run leadership at 26. Glynn came to the plate in the eighth after his three successive homers—one a grand slam--with a chance to whack a record-tying fourth hut filed to deep center with the bases full Tor his eighth RBL He had filed out in his first two trips to the plate. Ray Boone and Wayne Belardi homered in vain for the Tigers as the Indians notched their eighth straight win—Art Houtteman the winner. But the Bengals cut Cleveland’s American League lead to 3*4 games in a hrilling nightcap duel between two rookies. Harvey Kuenn broke a scoreless deadlock with an Uth-inning homer that gave George Zuverink~the 1toX) victory. Zuvertnk allowed Just three hits and loser Don Mossi gave up four. The Yankees recorded their first sweep in 11 doubleheaders this year, beating the Philadelphia Athletics, 7 to 4 and 11 to !. Chicago swept Baltimore, 3 to 0 and 2 to 1, while Boston split with Washington. winning, 14 to 0, and then lasing, 7 to 1. The Giants kept their 3*4 game lead over Brooklyn by beating Philadelphia twice. 10 to 0 and 4 to 3 The Dodgers took two from Pittsburgh, 8 to 6 and 7 to 2. Milwaukee also won its second game from the Cardinals, 10 to 4. Cincinnati went ten innings to beat Chicago, 6 to s’, and then added the windup, 8 to 7. Harry Byrd got credit for the Yanks’ 16Alt opener, which featured league leader Mickey (Mantle’s 17th home run and one by JoeColline. Noren’s twin homens in thq afterpiece insured Tom Morgan the win. Billy Pierce limited the Orioles to four hits as he pitched the shutout for Chicago in the only game of the day without a home run.

Open qualifying test to»lay but his. aggregate tifUH virtually assured him of getting into the champion- [ ship round. The Kiamesha Lake. N. Y., pro. r held aX.il) 16 1 for the title, was i suffering;.: from hay fever and i forced to use a towel continually i as he torued the tough, par-78 royal Birkdale course over which the hcarnpionship will be played Wed- . nesday. Demorct, adding to his Hillside course score of 73 tMonday. ran , into real trouble only on the sis- . teenth. when he landed in a sandtrap and took a six, two over par. Bright sunshine and a light wind : greeted the 30$ hopefuls today as they started play to narrow the field to 100 for the final 72 holew . beginning Wednesday. Gene Sarazen, America’s grand old man of golf, and Iceland's young John Me Gonigl* led the field into the final t&alifying round. The 52-year-old Sarazen, who jifst last week won the international seniors’ crown, amazed and delighted galleries Monday with a Hve-under-par qualifying round 67 over the gusty Hillside course. The sparkling round of the 1932 British Open titleholder, playing in this latter-day tourney purely for sentimental reasons, eclipsed in interest even the course record score of 65 turned in by the 29-year-old McGonigle. Five men broke 70 at Hillside, John Fanton of Scotland carded a 68 while Frank Stranahan. Toledo. O. amateur, and tshree-time formerchampion Bobby 4Jx-ke of South Africa recorded 69 s. The best effort at Birkdale was a 70 Ty Australia’s Norman von Nida. Five Others, including Peter Allie*—son of Percy Allis, whom Sarazen defeated for the seniors Championship — shot 72’s at Birkdale. Possession Os Coons, Squirrels Violation Possession of coons and squirrels as pets is in violation of state game laws, it was pointed out today by Jack Hurst, Adams county conservation officer. —* Hurst said this is generally the time of the year that picnickers find small coons and squirrels and bring them home as pets. This is in violation of the law which prohibits the keeping of. small animals, protected by game laws, as pets.
