Phillies Lose Four In Row For New Boss NEW YORK (fMSl—The Philadelphia phis kids, ♦ho flred Eddie Sawyer after he Won a pennant and Steve O’Ne'ill after he didn’t, have good reason to put, detectives on the trail of their hitters. They are about as. rare in the Phillies camp as a pickpocket to in a nudist colony. Hardly had the ink dried on stories Thursday night relating how Terry Moore was taking over with the Phils 1314 game® behind, when bingo—the Phils were 15 games behind. 5 Then after losing a doubleheader to Cincinnati which permitted the Reds to clinrb into a tie tor third place, the hitless wonders led with, their ace—Robin Roberts —Friday night and still left Moore the only winless major league pilot in baseball. When It was al! over at approximately 1:30 a. m. EDT, the Phillies bad dropped another double feature to Cincinnati and Moore, who relieved Steve O'Neiii with tbe club alone in third place Thursday, watched them skid into fifth place 1514 games out. This time the free-swinging Rede took over sole possession of the shot spot—l3l4 games out — jvith their ten-inning 7-to-6 opening triumph and 9-to-4 nightcap win. .It was the same old story, the Phillies couldn't hit when they had to and even their vaunted pitching couldn't withstand the plate power of Birdie Tebbett's crew. Roberts blew a three-run lead when the Reds tallied tour times in Ute fifth inning. He left in the eighth for Steve Ridzik, after yielding a two-run homer to Ed Bailey.The Phils kept in the game on homers by Bobby Morgan and, Dan Schell but gave Frank Smith the win when Chuck Hannon singled in the jvinning run in overtime. Bus rfell starred in the nightcap. He started the Reds off with a tworun homer in the third inning and sewed it up in the five-run, tiebreaking eighth inning with a three-run homer. Ex-Redleg Herm Wehtneier was the victim and Joe Nuxhall got the win. The New York Giants maintained their 614 lead over Brooklyn alI though losing to St. Louis, 5 to 4. The Dodgers dropped their third straight to Milwaukee, 6 to 1. Chicago nipped Pittsburgh, 3 to 2, in a day game. ...The Cleveland Indians kept their half-game toehold on the top rung of the American League ladder by pounding the Philadelphia Athletics, 9 to 3. The right-behlnd New York Yankees nosed out Baltimore, 3 to 2, tn a daytime affair. The Chicago White Sox took Washington. 4 to 2, and another day game found- Boston blanking Detroit, 3 to 0.

Fred Haas Leading In Carling’s Open CLEVELAND (INS)-Fred Haas Jr. of New Orleans carrjps a two stroke lead today Into the third round of the 325.000 Carling’s open golf tournament at Willoughby which is left without its stellar attraction, national open champ Ed Purgol. The withered arm sensation failed to qualify for the third round in the 72-hole event when he shot a 76 Friday, to post a 36-hole total of 148 — 12 strokes off the pace set by Haas. Furgol missed qualifying by, one stroke. Haas added a 69 to his first day's 67 to roll up a 136 total tor the 36 holes, two strokes better than George Fazio, Tommy Bolt, Jack Burke, Jr., Chick Harbert, Jerry Barber and Al Besselink, who tied for second with 138’s. The tournament — won last year by Cary Middlecotf in a suddendeath play-off with Ted .Krollstill aqpears to be a wide open affair. Still very much in contention is Walter Burkemo who posted a 139 and five others, including Kroll, who have 140 totals. Denny Shute of Akron, who posted an opening day 66, ballooned to a 77 Friday and dropped well back of the leader with a 143. The failure of Furgol to qualify was a bitter blow to tournament officials, who earlier this week announced that defending champion Middlecotf unexpectedly bolted the tournament. Furgol was making his first start since winning the national* open at Baltusrol country club in inid-June. Furgol, disappointed at his poor showing, said he had lost the sharpness from his game because he has been teaching so much at his home course at Clayton. Mo. He said he will try to get in plent yof practice before competing in the PGA championship at St. Paul.

The view that preliminary discussions of the subject were more precautionary than serious was partly borne out by ranking GOP leaders. . - The question arose at a closed foreign relatione committee session attended by secretary of state John Foster Dulles, who reported on his Paris talks with the British and French leaders on the Geneva conference. . Chairman Alexander Wiley (RWls.) said the question was discussed “only in a wide sense" and that congressional leaders may confer with Dulles again next week. He stressed that It was not even definite that separate action on the sovereignty matter will , be ret quired. because France still might ratify the European defense pact, before its assembly quits on August , 15. and eliminate the problem. , Senate GOP leader William F. Knowland (R-Calif.). who also

, heard Dulles, commented: “I don’t think it was necessarily determined whether it would be a joint session or a senate session or a special session or any session at all. It's not a settled question." Another source said Dulles indicated the idea of congressional sanction was more "desirable than necessary." This left the impression with some that President Eisenhower wanted to make sure congress would not object if he negotiated an executive agreement on the German issue. One senator hinted that Mr. Eisenhower probably did not want to open- himself to criticism that he failed to give congress its chance to pass upon the question, inasmuch as Republicans have assailed former President Truman for not asking formal congressional approval before intervening in Korea.
