Braves Rally In Ninth To Edge Giants BY FRED DOWN (United Press Sports Writer) “There ain’t no better way to win ’em than by one run.” That’s Manager Fred Haney murdering the King’s English but .pointing out a key reason his Milwaukee Braves today increased their National League lead to a new high of 3% games. They’re winning the close ones—as demonstrated by a 16-8 record in onerun decisions compared to the Cincinnati Redlegs’ 17-14 mark and the Brooklyn Dodgers’ 10-11 record in them. The Braves showed that important championship quality again Tuesday night when they rallied for two runs in the ninth to beat the New York Giants, 4-3. The Bravos have won 11 of 13 games in their latest drive and six ot those triumphs were by one-run margins. ,

Hank Aaron tripled to dead off the ninth and scored the tying run as Bobby Thomson hit into a double play. Then shortstop Johnny Logan walloped his ninth home run of the season to give southpaw Warren Spahn the tally he needed for his fourth straight win and 10th of the year. Spahn yielded a two-run homer to Dusty Rhodes in the first inning but then held the Giants in check the remainder of the way. The Dodgers opened a key home stand with a barrage of extra base blows that gave them a 10-5 decision over the second-place Redlegs. Sandy Amoros knocked in five runs with two triples and a double and Duke Snider hit his 22nd and 23rd homers as the Dodgers kayoed nemesis Johhny Kilippstein. Sal Maglie yielded 13 hits but went the distance for his third, triumph. The Philadelphia Phillies routed Vinegar Bend Mizell in a six-run, sixth-inning rally to beat the’ St. Louis Cardinals, 7-3. Curt Simmons delivered a two-run double in the big rally and beat the for the third time this Season although touched for 12 hits. Catcher Andy Seminick also delivered a

Ronnie Kline picked up his ninth win although he needed help from Howie PoPet in the eighth while Bob Rush suffered his fourth loss against eight victories. Billy Fierce became the majors’ first 15-game winner of the current season and matched his 1965 victory total when the Chicago White Sox pounded out an 11-5 verdict over the American Leagueleading New York Yankees. Larry Doby led the White Sox’ 14-hlt assault with a single, double and homer that drove in four runs. The Cleveland Indians crept to within 8% games ot the Yankees when they walloped the Washington Senators. 11-0.

Jackie Burke Wins PGA Title Over Ted Kroll CANTON, Mass. (UP) —Jackie Burke credited his putter, chipping and ability to play in the afternoon "like a good race horse coming down the stretch" .for his victory over battle-scarred Ted Kroll for the PGA golf championship. In winning it Tuesday, the cur-ly-haired, 32-year old Burke became the second man in history ever to win the Masters and PGA tournaments —two of the most prized titles in golf—in the same yea/ - . Only Sam Snead who was eliminated in the PGA quartertinals by Kroll on Sunday ever did it before back in 1939. Burke, one of the greatest putters in the game, had to dome from behind to beat the 37-year old Kron, Just as he had to fight back to whip Ed Furgol, the 1954 U. S. Open champion, in the semifinals in Monday. Against Furgol he fought back from being five down to win out, 1 up in 37 holes. Against Kroll, he came from a three-down deficit because his putter failed him for the first 19 holes, as he missed five putts from five feet or less — one of them from 18 inches. But then he got his putter back on good behavior and fired five birdies at Kroll in six holes to

On one of them, the 190-yard fourth, he carded five birdies and two pars in the seven rounds of match play it tc#>k him to win his second major title of the year. That string of birdies on the afternoon nine put Burke out in Tour under par 32 and when he closed it out he maintained that edge over regulation figures, being four under par for 34 holes. Kroll didn’t crack. Trying for his first major tournament triumph after 10 years on the pro trait he Jttst ran out of gas, the same as he did at Rochester, N.Y., last month in the U. S. Open. In that one, he had to finish In even par for the last three holes to beat out Cary Middlecotf, but he triple-bogicd the 16th to blow his chance. He didn’t triple-bogie Tuesday but he just couldn’t match those Burke birdies. “I gave it all I had,” said Kroll, Xho was wounded four times in e war, “it just wasn’t good enough.” Trade ’n a uooa m>wt. — Decatur
