The tick bay is beginning to look like the clubhouse and Walter Alston is wondering how much longer his boys cah go without Billy Loes, Johnny Podres and Duke Snider. Righthander Loes and southpaw Podres, together with Carl Erskine and Don Newcombe, comprise the backbone of the Brooklyn mound corps which has led the way to a 13-game lead in the National J-eague. The two pitched 14 wins in 20 decisions between them before they were sidelined 10 days ago with sone arms. Hoy Campanella and Snider, the team's mighty one-two punch, are plagued with knee although Campy climbed back into the lineup for Friday night's 8-2 defeat at Milwaukee. Don Zimmer is suffering a jaw •infection and Carl Furillo pulled Up Friday with a pulled calf muscle to add to his sore arm. Alston, who is ready to start some of his reliefers, namely Karl Spooner and Ed Roebuck, is also concerned over erratic Erskine.

For the 10th time in his last 11 games Erskine failed to survive as the Braves clobbered him for three home runs inside of three innings. Eddie Mathews opened with a first inning blast, his 16th of the year, and Del Crandall socked a two run job in th# second. Hank Aaron clouted his 12th in the three run third inning. Jim Hughes, Sandy Kqufax, Clem Labine and Roebuck tramped to -.he mound in order to help stem the tide as Lew Burdette notched his fifth win in nine decisions. 'Ruben Gomez, meanwhile, was giving the New York Giants a 1-6 win over the St. Louis as Philadelphia split a pair with Cincinnati, winning 8-6, and then bowing, 6-0. The Chicago Cubs stayed one percentage point behind the Braves by whipping Pittsburgh, 10-3, in a day game. .
In a rain interrupted game at New York, the Yankees held their two game American League lead by nosing out Cleveland 2-1. on Irv Noren’s 10th inning homer. The Chicago White Sox cooled of the red hot Boston Red Sox, 3-2; Detroit exploded all over Washington, 18-7, and Kansas City shut out Baltimore, 2-0. • / Tom Poholaky limited the Giants to just three hits but Whitey Lockman’s fourth-inning homer was enough to beat him. Cincinnati's 14 hit attack in the opener included homers by Smokey Burgess and Wally Post but Roy Smalley’s three run blast in the eighth won it for Philadelphia and Ron Negray. Joe Nuxall’s four hitter and homers by Ted Kluszewski (22(, Post and Gus Bell won the nightcap. Paul M inner gave the Pirates eight hits as Ernie Banks and Walker Cooper gave him home run support, Ramon Mejias hit one for the Pirates. A crowd of 27,077 watched the Yankees win their game on circuit clouts by Yogi Berra, his 13th and Noren. Mike Garcia had a one hitter until Berra’s "blast in the seventh and wound up with a five hitter in defeat, his ninth in 12 The Indians rapped Johnny Kucks for 10 hits before Jim Konstanty came on in the ninth for his fifth win.

Will Stand Trial For Scalding Son Older Children To Present Testimony INDIANAPOLIS (INS) — A 37-year-old mother is to go on trial Monday for the scalding death ot her four-year-old son after the state decided its three principal witnesses could hold up through the terrible ordeal ahead of them. The three witnesses without whom Marion county prosecutor John G. Tinder has no case are three older children of the defendant. Lucy L. Hawkins. A special conference Friday reached the decision to continue with prosecution of the case. It was called by Tinder after one of his deputies said the older children had changed their stories. Tinder said he talked to Russell Hawkins. 20, Mrs. Patricia Hawkins Gary, 19, and Margaret Rose Hawkins, 16, and that although they made “some changes” in their original account of the tragedy, he had decided to go ahead with the case. - Judge Saul I. Rabb ordered a panel of 75 to report Monday for possible jury duty, and another 75 was slated to report Wednesday—an indication the judge expects selection of the jury to be a slow process. The case is complicated by the lapse of time since four-year-old David Hawkins died of burns, Nov. 11, 1949. The older children said they were afraid to say anything at first, but later decided to tell their story about David's death.
U. S. Opposed To Divided Germany State Department Head In Statement BLOOMINGTON. Ind. (INS) — A top ranking state department official said today the UTS. would “reject utterly” any package cold war settlement that would leave Germany divided. Deputy under secretary Robert Murphy said the American government also opposes firmly re-unifi-cation of Germany at the price of neutralization. Murphy loaded his speech with blasts at the Soviet Union for being responsible for the troubled German situation and perpetuation of a divided Germany. He noted the recent "certain indications on the part of the Soviet Union that some kind of change Is in process; whether the change is in their tactics, their strategy or their hearts is a subject of widespread speculation.” He said that changes were Indicated by Soviet agreement to an Austrian state treaty. Murphy pointed out that at the forthcoming big four summit meet ing at Geneva the problem of Germany will probably come up. He added:. “The coming conference we hope will provide a means of testing how substantial (he apparent recent changes, of attitude of the Russians may be.” Murphy made his remarks in an address prepared for delivery before the Indiana University Conference on Problems of American Foreign Policy.
