Michigan State and Texas Christian — are rated “.out.” The games in which the oddsmakers were reluctant to separate the opponents by even a single point involve Dartmouth-Brown, Southern Methodist-Duke, RiceFlorida, Oeorgia-NOrth Carolina," Oklahoma A&M-Tulsa, lowa StateKansas, Oregon State-California and Kentucky-Auburn.

Slaughter On Spot As Possible Goat BROOKLYN (UP) —E n e'4 Slaughter, one of the, greatest clutch pitchers In baseball history. is on the spot today as a possible 1956 World Series goaf. Did the 39 year old New Yortf Yankee outfielder misplay three balls, including Jackie Robinson’s game winning. 10th-inni*ig single in Tuesday's 1-0 Brooklyn Dodger triumph? Or did circumstanced just happen to make Enos look bad? The question probably will be debated as long as World Series are talked about without anyone arriving at a conclusive decision. But it's quite likely that, of all the games old Enos has played, he'll least like to recall the sixth game of the 1956 World Series. The Yankees’ sentimental herg of the Series ran into trouble early when Junior Gilliam lifted a routine fly to left field with one out in the third inning. Enos loped in under the ball, then lost it in the sun, and let it drop for a single. Gilliam tried for two and the alert Slaughter grabbed the ball and threw to Billy Martin for the putout. 111-luck again came Enos’ way in the 'eighth inning of the tense struggle when pitcher Clem Labine lifted a high fly close to the left field foul line. At first, it seemed the ball might go all the way for a home run but it fell short close to a protuding section of the stands but still just inside the foul line. Slaughter raced over to take the ball but stopped about five feet short of the protruding fence. The ball dropped for a double. o | And then, of course, there was some question whether Enos should have caught Jackie Robinson's game-winning liner in the 10th. At first, it appeared the ball would be caught and then, suddenly, it was over Enos’ head and off the wall and Junior Gilliam was streaking over the plate. IKE LASHES (C—tiaaed from Peace Oae) am.” Mr. Eisenhower said Stevenson and his Democratic running, mate, Estes Kefauver, are making a "record of clattering campaign oratory” and cited as examples the issues of “big business’ versus “small business;’ the draft, Hbomb tests, national defense and peace. "They say your government is indifferent to labor,” he said‘They say your government is negligent in social security-indif-ferent to the unemployed. >,.jk . “This amounts to saying that your government has no interest in the people of America. This amounts to the charge that your government has betrayed your trust. Sueh talk is political irresponsibility at its worst.” (Replying to Stevenson's statement that the draft might be halted in the foreseeable future and that the United States should take the lead in halting H-bomb tesUgi the President said he was speaking "with the greates seriousness.” "I, as your President and commander in chief of»the armed forces, cannot and will not make proposals contrary to national in-terest-nor offer you attractive prospects unjustified by world realities” Mr. Eisenhower said, M will not promise that winning a peace bhsed on justice will be cheap and easy."
