1 The 18-year-old Von, who signjxl a SSO,OtM) bonus contract only six j months ago. pitched a one-hitter 'Sunday as the Cardinals whipped [the Pittsburgh Pirates. 4-0 and 9-8. Gene Baker's second - inning double was the blow that deprived McDaniel of the first perfeet game in modern National League history as he fanned four and did not permit another runner to reach base. TTie sweep enabled the Cardinals to move within three percentage points of the first-place Mil- * waukee Braves, who split with SI the New York Giants, and left 1 them with a 55-40 won-lost record. They have a one-game edge in the ’ lost column on both the Braves and third-place Brooklyn Dodgers ! and a two-game edge in the same '' column on the Cincinnati Redlegs and Philadelphia Phillies. McDaniel’s victory was his fifth against two losses and his second | shutout. His four previous wins I were over contenders and he now has yielded only 38 hits in 57 inL nings while compiling a 2.68 ERA. | His strikeouts outnumber his i walks < supposed bugaboo of young pitchers', 28-15. Homer Wins Nightcap The boy was all the Cardinals required in the opener but they [needed the combined efforts of ' three men to win the nightcap. , Eddie Kasko doubled to cap a H three-run ninth-inning rally that tied the score, Hoyt Wilhelm held the Pirates scoreless for the next two innings and Joe Cunningham finally broke it up with his sixth homer of the season in the 11th inning. I Johnny Antonelli pitched a seven - hitter to beat the Braves for

dlthe fourth time. 2-0. but Milwaux kee gained a split when Gene r Conley whipped the Giants for the d third time in 10 days, 5-3 Willie d Mays smashed four straight sing gles in the opener for the Giants ‘- while Ed Mathews' two- run. •- fourth-inning single was the big il blow for the Braves in the second r game. The Dodgers cut Milwaukee's margin over them to a gamei- and-a-half when Johnny Podres - scattered nine hits and Carl Fu- ■ riilo hit the eighth grand slamh mer of his major league career t in a 7-2 victory over the Redlegs. • It was the third time thi.§ season e Podres beat the Redlegs and s raised his career record against s them to 9-3. Ted Kluszewski hom- ? ered for Cincinnati. s Curt Simmons won his 10th game and rookie Jack Sanford his i 14th as the Phillies whipped the I Chicago Cubs, 3-2 and 7-1. Grans ny Hamner’s sacrifice fly in the f ninth sent over the winning run . in the opener and he whacked a , two-run double before Ed Bouchee j exploded a three-run homer when > the Phillies kayoed Dick Drott [with five runs in the seventh inning of the nightcap. White Sox Advance r The Chicago White Sox defeated f the Baltimore Orioles. 4-3, and advanced within 3*4 games of [ first place in the American League t when the New York Yankees split I a' double-header with the Detroit t Tigers.

Patterson Is Favorite To Retain Title NEW YORK (UP)-Floyd’ Pat-' terson, making his first defense of the heavyweight crown, will try to stiffen Tommy (Hurricane) Jackson within five rounds tonight if threatening weather permits their ■outdoor fight at the Polo Grounds. That’s the latest word from the youngest of heavyweight champs,, who is favored at 5-1 to win and at 8-5 to score a knockout. And the latest report from the weather bureau was; “Scattered thundershowers may blow over before time for the bout"—lo p.m. ed.t. Little Emil Lence. the independent promoter who is challenging the po'wer of big Jim Norris’ International Boxing Club predicts 27,000 fans and a gate ranging between $300,000 and $350,000 if the bout goes on tonight; more, if the first independently promoted heavyweight title show in 20 years is delayed 24 hours. However, some of little Emil’s less optimistic assistants doubt that the gate will exceed $250,000. Tell Friends Plans Patterson, 22, told friends today, "I’ll try to take him out in five rounds to help my reputation and to lessen the chance of getting a face cut that might postpone my next defense against Pete Rademacher.” If Floyd beats lanky, 25-year-old Jackson in their return bout tonight, he will receive a $250,000 guarantee for a defense against j Olympic champion Rademacher at Seattle, Wash., Aug. 22. That’s more than the $175,000 guarantee for tonight's scheduled 15-rounder. Champion and challenger came into the city from their respective training camps Sunday and took up temporary quarters in Midtown. hotels. Patterson, who now lives at Mt. Vernon, N.Y., is a lopsided favorite to beat Jackson, who now lives at St Albans, N.Y., for many reasons. On Impressive Streak First, young Floyd seeks his 19th straight victory. He's on an impressive winning streak. Only one of his opponents in his last 13 bouts evaded a knockout. The man was Jackson—in their ’ first bout 13 months ago. But i many believe the only reason the Hurricane was still on his feet at the end of their 12 rounds in Madison Square Garden was the fact that Patterson fractured his right hand in the fifth round. Floyd wound up with a split de- ; cision over Jackson that night of June 8, 1956, when Referee Harry Kessler surprisingly voted for the I Hurricane, and the two judges favored Floyd. The victory earned I Patterson the right to fight ancient ’ Archie Moore for the vacant heavyweight crown, and he belted out Moore in the fifth round at Chicago last Nov. 30. Short Reign Possible Because that title victory was only seven months and 29 days ago, Patterson’s regime would be the shortest among heavyweight kings if the unpredictable, wardancin’ Jackson happened to upset him this time. In case of a Jackson victory, they are scheduled for a return title fight at the Polo Grounds, Sept. 16 The champion hasn’t fought since he Battened Moore, but he was very impressive in that bout and he has been impressive in training. He appears to be more explosive thpn ever—as he fights out of a more flat-footed stance, with less footwork and less leaping in with punches. He concentrated on a body attack as he groomed this time for long-waist-ed Tommy. Jackson and his clownish flailing attack won 29 of his 35 fights, 13 by knockouts. He suffered five defeats and had one draw. Nino Valdes of Cuba was credited with stopping him in the second round on July 14, 1954—0 n
