Giants Defeat Dodgers, Hike League Margin NEW YORK (INS) — Time, a precious ally last year when Brooklyn clinched the pennant on the earliest date in National league history, now is deserting the Dodgers for some new friends up on Coogan's Bluff. The Dodgers copped their second straight flag on Sept. 12. exactly 13 games in front of their lead challenger. Milwaukee. Now they stand four games behind with just about three weeks left to cateh the New York Giants. And the oddsmakers are laying 2 to 1 that the Giants and the clock will beat ’em.

So. just from statistics. l”ve got the best of it.” Even mild-mannered Walt Alaton admits his back is to the wall. Before last night’s defeat to Hqyt Wilhelm, he confided: •’We’’ve got to win four out of the six left with the Giants. Even then we’ll have to rely on someone else to beat them in a few and keep on winning ourselves.” But win they couldn't last night as Wilhelm provided some fancy relief pitching and knocked in the winning run with a single — his first hit in 16 tHes this year. Wilhelm, who now has a batting average of .063, came in tor Sal Maglie at the top of the seventh. Re held the Dodgers scoreless and insured his 10th victory in 15 decisions by breaking a 4-4 tie in his initial time up.
