night and brought them down before 27,297 fans in Ebbets Field with five runs in the eighth inning on three hits and a Don Zimmer error. Thus the Durochermen avenged two earlier defeats by the Brooks, ended the Bums' modern record of consecutive victories at the start of a season, and kept alive the all-time mark of 12 such wins by their Giant predecessors of 1884. The streak goes back to April 13, when Carl Erskine defeated Pittsburgh. 6 to 1. Since then the Brooks knocked off the Pirates three times more, the Giants twice and Philadelphia four straight, the last being the 14-to-4 record-shat-tering effort against Robin Roberts. Erskine, who goes today against Dodger killer Sai “The Barber” Maglie (1-1) at Ebbets Field, re; corded two of the wins, as did Don Newcombe and Billy Loes. Johnny Podres also was going for his second Friday night when the roof caved in. The youthful southpaw went all out for seven innings, squelching three Giant threats, fanning eight and picthing a 3-to-O shutout into the fateful eighth. But. the Giants soon tied it up at 2-all with one out on Willie Mays’ single, walks to Al Dark and Hank Thompson and Don Mueller’s safety. Whitey Lockman scored two more by doubling off the newly-arrived Jim Hughes and was waved in when Zimmer's relay home skipped past Roy Campanella into the Dodger dugout. The Dodgers answered by loading the bags with none out but Marv Grissom held back the tide, allowing one run. The Giants caught Zimmer at the plate with what would have been the tying run in the eighth and Dodger Manager Walt Alston went into such a rage he was thrown out of the game. Roy Campanella had given the Dodgers a lead for six innings with his two-run homer. Brooks Lawrence’s five-hitter gave St. Louis a 2-to-l victory over Milwaukee, Del Ennis' three-run homer gave Philadelphia a 5-to-4 win oyer Pittsburgh and Chicago downed Cincinnati, 6 to 3, in a daylight contest. American League champion Cleveland (topped Detroit, 8 to 5. The White Sox defeated Kansas City, 5 to 3, and Washington nosed out Baltimore, 3 to 2. A daytime affair saw New York’s Whitey Ford whitewashing Boston, 3 to 0. A double by Red Schoendienst and Stan Musial's single accounted for the Cardinals’ winning run

It was a very wise move and one I always have advocated.” In New York, Harold L. Bache, senior partner of the New York stock brokerage firm of Bache * 00., said: “It is not too surprising to see the federal reserve increase margin requirements. “This is more or less in line with the inferences suggested at the time the margins were raised from 50 te 60 percent in January and follows the release of figures showing a further sharp increase In loans to brokers and dealers in the New York area."

They measure the production of new wealth and determine the income which all other groups can enjoy." The economist estimated that 70 per cent of all the raw materials produced in the country come from the farm and he said that 55 per cent of that is* in the form of livestock and dairy and . poultry products. Wilken thus concluded thht, in large part, any economic expansion for the country as a whole depends on the health of the livestock industry. Trade in a Good Town — Decatttr

Three-Year Olds To Meet In Wood Race NEW VbltK (INS) — Two wonderful three-year-old colts —Summer Tan and Nashua—will fight it out in the 1100,000 Added Wood Memorial at Jamaica today. And the winner undoubtedly will be favored to go on to win the Kentucky Derby. Mrs. John Thouron's Cup Man, Mrs. Dorothy Belt's Simmy, the world record bolder for 6% furlongs, and possibly Lazy Z ranch’s Door Prize also will run, but probably for nothing more exalted than third place. Os chief interest among horsemen is the probable reaction of Nashua to his new jockey, Ted Atkinson. Ted, who worked the iron-headed obstreperous coif in Florida last winter, was substituted for the colt's regular rider, Eddie Arcaro, when Eddie drew two 10-day suspensions. Eddie will be eligible to ride the William Woodward cult in the derby but, meanwhile, what will Teddy do with him? The venerable sunny Jim Fitzsimmons, Nashua’s trainer, is convinced Atkinson will handle the colt as well as, Arcaro, but that remains to be* seen. Arcaro repeatedly has said with emphatic expletives that nobody can tell what Nashua is going to do. The main trick with the colt is to keep him running once he gets the lead. When he does shove his nose in front he sometimes decides that the race is over and he has done enough running for the day. Mrs. John W. Galbreath's Summer Tan runs kindly and gamely at all times, and for that reason he may go to the post a slight favorite. Nashua beat Summer Tan three out of four in photo finishes last year, but this is another year. Much, too, will depend on how the race is run. Most experts look for Simmy to set a blisteridj?. pace. If so we may see a new world record for the mile-and-an-eighth trip.
