The major leaguers, according to Elbie, now a Boston salesman, don’t realize just how lucky they are. “If the players think they have it rough, wait until they hit the mruors on their way down.” he said sadly. “Then they’ll know how rough things can really get.”' 1 The bout between Floyd Patterson and Archie Moore, which will decide the successor to Rocky Marciano's world heavyweight title, will become official next Friday when Patterson goes before the New York boxing commission and his fractured hand is okayed. Meanwhile, that same night, Joey Giambra will ‘take” Rocky Castellani to get in line right behind Gene Fullmer , for a shot at Ray Robinson’s middleweight title. •• Tournament star Ed Furgol, nyrho - wen* to -the -seaiß finals of the PGA gals championship, is considering three offers of which at least one is from a major club.

Phillies Snap Braves Streak At Five Games By FRED DOWN (United Press Sports Writer) The Milwaukee Braves may be enroute to their first National League pennant but they’ve yet to prove they’re champions to the Philadelphia Phillies. Mayo Smith’s sixth-place team stopped the Braves’ 11-game winning streak June 26 and they put the brakes on their "wreck the race” drive again Friday night with a 5-2 triumph behind Saul Rogovin’s six-hitter. The Phillies, with an 8-6 margin, are the only team in the league with a season’s edge over the Braves. Rogovin lost his bid for a shutout when Joe Adcock hit a two-, run faomer in the sixth but then singled with the bases filled in the bottom of the inning to put the Phillies back in front, 4-2. Richie Ashburn singled home the third run cf the frame and then Rogovin checked the Braves the remainder of the way to win his fourth straight game and sixth of the season. Lew Burdette, trying for his 13th victory, suffered his fifth defeat, as the Braves* five-game winning streak came to an end. The Cincinnati Redlegs and Brooklyn Dodgers seized on the opportunity to pick up a full game each on the leaders, the second-place Redlegs shading the Pittsburgh Pirates. 3-2, and the third-place Dodgers beating the Chicago Cnbs. 4-3, in 10 Innings. The Redlegs now trail the Braves by 4% games with the Dodgers another half length behind Cincinnati.

Wally Post tripled home Johnny Temple In the ninth to enable the Redlegs to snap a three-game loving streak and give Art Fowler his seventh win. The Pirates tied the score at 2-2 in the seventh when Dale Long walloned a 436-foot homer, his 21st of the campaign. Elroy Face was the loser. Gil Hodges scored from second base as Roy Campanella bunted into a double play to give the Dodgers their sixth straight victory — -equalling their high for the season. Cayl Erskine limited the Cubs to six bits to win his seventh straight game, and ninth of the year. Pee Wes Reese and Carl Furillo hornered tor Brooklyn while Don Hoak blasted a round-tripper for the Cubs. Bill Sarnrs two-run. seventh-in-ning triple provided the New York Giants with a 6-5 win over the St. Louis Cardinals as Bill Rigney’s last-place team snapped an eightgame losing skein. Bobby Del Greco and Bill White homered. In the American League, the New York Yankees maintained their 8%game first-place lead with a 14-in-nlng. 19-9 decision over the Kansas City Athletics. Mike Baxes’ second error of the 14th inning, with the bases filled and two out, let in the Yankees* decisive run in a fourhour, 47 minute struggle that ended at 2:47 a.m. (EDT) Saturday. •- .■ • q.’-’ - ’ ■ Sixth-inning homers by Rocky Colavito and Jim Hegan gave the Cleveland Indians a 3-2 win over the Baltimore Orioles as Early Wynn chalked up his 12th victory of the year.
