Chicago Cubs Hand Newcombe Second Defeat NEW YORK (INS) To Big Don Newcombe, a pitcher with an 18r2 record playing for a club that seems likely to win the National League pennant from here to yonder, it’s a big wide, wonderful wofld-exeept for the Chicago Cuba. Big Don has an understandable prejudice against the Cubs. They have accounted for both the defeats on his record, snapping his winning streaks of 10 and eight games. > It happened for the second time Monday when Gene Baker, less publicized half of the Cubs' BakerErnie Banks keystone combination, socked an eighth inning home run to give Sad Sam Jones a 1 to 0 decision over Newk and the Brooklyn Dodgers. The victory enabled the Cubs to swfeep a three game series from the Dodgers, cutting Brooklyn’s lead to 14 games. Even so, the Brooks, who won eight and lost five on their western swing, picked up half a length. They were 13% ahead when they went west on July 26. ' Jones, author of the majors’ only 1955 no-hitter, allowed four hits to six given up by Newcombe in a duel witnessed by a. ladies’ day crowd of 41,860 (paid attendance 22,742). However, Sad Sam walked six and hit one, while Newcombe walked only one. Twice, in the second and fifth innings, the Dodgers filled the bases. But each time, there were two out, and Jones was able to get the third one. Newcombe hadn’t allowed a man to get past second until Baker pounded a 3-2 pitch into the left field bleachers. The Chicago second baseman had half his team’s hits, getting a double and single as well as the homer. The Dodgers and Cubs were the only laborers in either major league Monday. All the other clubs were busy sorting themselves out frown the latest east-west invasions. In the American League, the five hot contenders will choose partners again and get right back to work tonight, battling for the flag. Only the Chicago White Sox-in first place by .003 over the New York Yankees-have what passed for a let up session at Kansas City, although after the way the three “hjve nots” kicked theif.,big bro\ thws -around last week, nothing can be taken for granted. The fifth-place Detroit Tigers, only 5% games from the top, play at third -place Cleveland. The fourth place Boston Red Sox, considered by many the most “live" threat of all, swagger into Yankee Stadium, where Ted Williams will look for the 2,000th hit of his major league career. —

All-Star, Pro Football Game Friday Night CHICAGO (INS) -Coach E. L. (Curly) Lambeau’s All-Star squad, heartened by a 9 to 6 scrimmage victory over the Chicago Cardinals moved into final preparations today for their big faootball game Friday night with the Cleveland Browns. The 22nd annual clash between the eream of the college stars and the pro champion Browns is expected to attract about 96,000 fans to Chicago’s huge Soldier Field. Lambeau, who won fame as a pro coach and founder of the Green Bay Packers, has used all his knowledge of the game in toughening up his college players to make a real bld for their first victory in the series since 1950. His appointment as head coachan innovation from the usual AllStar practice of naming a prominent college coach to drill the campus crew-was believed by AllStar sponsors to be the most effective means of improving college chances of making a good showing against the Browns. The uplift 1n spirit and team play brought about by Lambeau and his pro assistants was evident in the scrimmage with the Cards. The All-Stars battled the pros all the -way and won out on a field goal by tiny Tad Weed of Ohio State. The nearly four weeks of AllStar practice at Northwestern university’s Dyche Stadium have been secret but the general impression is that the All-Stars will employ a passing attack against the Browns. This is because running plays against the heavy and seasoned pros have proved futile In recent years. Lambeau has not revealed his starting lineup but it is expected that he will have Ralph Gugliehni of iNotre Dame at quarterback, Dick Moegle of Rice and L. G. Dupre of Baylor, halfbacks, and Alan Anieche of Wisconsin, full back. His line will feature two of the best ever to play for the All-Stars -Max Boydston of Oklahoma and Tom Bettis of Purdue.
