Austrian Treaty Is Ratified By Senate Bitter Criticism Is Fired At Pact WASHINGTON (INS) — The senate has ratified the Austrian state treaty, 63 to 3, but even supporters used such epithets as “robbery” and “appeasement" to describe the price Russia exacted for the country's independence. The top heavy vote Friday failed to reflect the bitteh bipartisan criticism fired at the pact. The treaty provides that Austria will continue to pay reparations to Russia for another 10 years. Opening the Democratic broadside, Sen. Joseph R. O’M&oney, Wyo.. at first advocated a “reservation.*’ making it clear that the U.S. does not condone the conditions imposed by Russia. He offered no resolution and in the end voted for ratification, but he insisted that the U. S. should show it is “not fooled one bit by Soviet propaganda.” Minority leader William .F. Know land CR-Calif.) aimed a sim- ' ilar salvo at the agreement which paved the way for removal of , the 10-year-old four power occupa- ( tion of Austria. Knowland expressed hope that ( the Voice of America would broad- , cast to Austria that “we recognize that the Soviet is exating out of them that which we did not even exact out of the enemy powers.” A Voice of America spokesman said that a news summary of the senate action has been beamed to Western Europe and other areas. On the final tally, the dissenters were Sens. William E. Jenner (RInd.) Joseph R. McCarthy (R-Wis.) and George W. Malone (R-Nev.).

Chisox Defeat Yankees, Only Game From Lead NEW YORK (ikS) — George Kell of the Chicago White Sox is one of the masters of a tricky baseball art called "guarding the plate" —the science of fouling off pitches uuite what you want to swing at bht are too good to pass up. Because he is, the American League race is tighter today than at any time since May 21st —the day the New York Yankees took over first place. The White Sox beat the Yankees Friday night, 2-1, because Kell used his bat wizardly to foul off an intended fourth ball and then singled home the winning run in the ninth inning. The Chicago victory put them within one game and two percentage points of the top. the standings looking like this: * •** W. L. Pct. G.B. New York 40 22 .645 Chicago — 36 20 .643 1 Actually, the White Sox. who have played six fewer games, are two ahead of the Yanks in the supposedly vital “lost” column. And the Bombers have blown most of a lead that, at one point, reached five games. Casey Stengel's men, who couldn't win for awhile for bad pitching, got a five-hit route-going Job ‘-from Whitey Ford Friday night, but they lost because they couldn’t solve Dick Donovan, the somewhat shopworn rookie right hander, who doled out four safeties in winning his eighth for the Sox against two losses. Until the ninth, all the scoring had been confined to a pair of long home runs by Walt Dropo of Chicago and the Yankees’ Mickey Mantle. The latter’s No. 15 in the eighth inning tied him with Kansas City's Ous Zernial for the league long distance lead. Nelson Fox, who has been on fire since the Sox' eastern trip began, led off the ninth with a single and was sacrificed to second. Ford went to 3 and 1 on Kell. When he tried to throw an intentional fourth ball, Kell reached out and fouled it off. The 32-year-old Kell lined the next pitch into left field for a single, scoring Fox. A crowd of 33,744 saw the affair. T;he Cleveland Indiana picked up half a gktae on the Yankees by splitting an afternoon night Bunk- '■ er Hill Day doubleheader with Boston. After losing the opener, 6-5, the Indians won the nightcap, 3-2. Baltimore nipped Detroit in 11 innings. 3-2, and Kansas City defeated Washington, 4-2. i In the National League, Don . Newcombe's pitching and batting . led Brooklyn on a 12-1 frolic .over [ St. Louis. The Dodgers boosted ■ their lead to 1114 as Philadelphia edged the Chicago Cubs, 3-2, and Milwaukee won a 5-4 ten inning i decision over the New York Giants. . Pittsburgh downed Cincinnati, 3-1. Newcombe allowed seven hits in notching his 11th triumph against a single, loss, and he smashed his fifth home run—one short of the league record for a pitcher—a double and a single. Duke Snider hit homers No. 21 and 22 as the Dodgers ended a two game losing “streak.” George Crowe's double and Danny Q'ConneU's single drove in the winning fun for the Braves in the 10th before 39,275 fans at County Stadium in Milwaukee. Hank Aaron hit his, 11th homer for the Broves. Stan Lopata's ninth inning home run was the deciding factor as Curt Simmons of the Phillies outpitched Bob .Rush of the Cubs. Rush allowed only five hits but lost to the Phils for the 14th straight time. < Billy Klaus, the Red Sox' surprising utility infielder, almost singlehandedly defeated the Indians in the first game, driving in five runs with a home run and three singles. Early Wynn, seeking his ninth win, was tagged with his second loss. It was the Sox* ninth victory in their last 10 starts, but Ray Narleski snapped a four game Boston winning streak with a four hit mound job in the BEE WHAT YOU’RE MISSIN our auto insurance Is not a Ml BURKI 239 N. 11th St. ; ■ . ■»
