Giants Have Best Senior Loop Mark NEW YORK (UP)—The Giants leave New York with the best pennant-winning record of any team in the National League. During the modern era of baseball (starting in 1900), the Giants won 15 pennants and five world championships. They also finished first twice during the "Gaslight Era"—in 1888 and 1889. The only major league club with a better pennant-winning record is the New York Yankees. Most successful of all Giants’ managers was the legendary John McGraw, who guided the team to 10 National League pennants and five world championships. Since McGraw took command of the Giants during the 1902 season, they have had Only five managers. MfGraw was succeeded during the 1932 campaign by Bill Terry. Mel Ott took over the team In 1942; Leo Durocher replaced him midway during the 1948 sea : ' son, and BUI Rigney has managed the club for the past two seasons.

Yanks, Braves Confident Os Pennant Wins By MILTON RICHMAN United Press Sports Writer The Yankees and Braves are "in," according to the oddsmakers, and that’s the same feeling Casey Stengel and Fred Haney shared today although they both made the traditional “anything-can-happen-yet” speech just to hedge a bit. Stengel's Yankees have a 7%game lead with only 37 games left to play as they launch their final Western trip tonight with a game against their Kansas City cousins. The quotation on the world champions is "out" and 104. That means it you want to bet they wUI win the American League pennant, you’re out of luck, but if you want to bet they won’t, you can get 10-1 odds. Milwaukee, with a 6%-game lead and 37 games remaining, starts its last big road trip of the year with a game against the Pirates tonight. And if you think the Braves won’t win the National League flag, there’s 7-1 odds waiting for you. Apparently, neither Stengel nor Haney is worrying unduly about "blowing” the pennant in the next 40 days. "This thing ain’t over yet.” said the ever-cautious Stengel, “even though I gotta say we look in good shape. If we can get through this trip with a pretty good lead, I think we'll be al) right." On the Milwaukee side of the ledger, Haney pooh - poohed the idea that the Braves' three weekend losses to the second-place St. Louis Cardinals was the beginning of a "nosedive." “It was just a natural let-down after winning 10 in a row,” declared the Milwaukee skipper. "I think we can bounce right back. Tliis is a good ball club that's confident it can go all the way.” Kansas City defeated Cleveland, 1-0, on Tom Gorman's four - hit pitching in the only major league game scheduled Monday. The Athletics scored the only run of the game in the sixth inning off Ray Narleski when Bob Cerv singled, stole second and came home on Tim Thompson's single. The victory was Gorman’s third of the season while Narleski suffered his third loss against nine victories. Gino Cimoli’s llth-inning double gave the Dodgers a 24 victory over the International League AllStars at Montreal. Held hitless over the first six innings, Brooklyn tied the score in the eighth and went on to win the game in the 11th on Cimoli’s hit which scored Junior Gilliam. Southpaw Sandy Koufax was the winner in relief.

St. Louis Salesman Leads Qualifiers ST. LOUIS (UP) — Ken Heilemann, 41, a St. Louis chemical salesman, who last hit the headlines in the 1944 Tam O’Shanter, held a one stroke lead today going into the second round of 72-hole qualifying play for the 55th Western Amateur golf championship. One stroke back were Dr. Ed Updegraff, 35. a Tucson physician, and two collegians—Ed Brantly, 22, Signal Mountain, Tenn., and Ward Wettlaufer, 21, Buffalo, N.Y. Heilemann, who tied with Ed Furgol Jr. for low amateur in the 1944 Tam, said “everything went well" as he became the only one of 145 shot makers to break par on the 6,092-yard, par 35-36-71 Old Warson Country Club course. He had birdie putts of 15 and 20 feet and only one three-putt green on his one under 34-36 round. Heilemann, looking over his shoulder at a pack of youngsters, thought he had a chance at his first Western title, but believed thethe ettraordinary length of the tournament would be the deciding factor. The field faces another 18-hole round today and 36 holes Wednesday when the low 16 golfers will be selected for the 36-hole championship flight matches through Sunday. Updegraff, tall and" lean fourtime amateur winner of the Tucson Invitational, credited good irons and a steady putter for his par round. He one-putted the 16th and two-putted the rest while Wettlaufer and Brantly scrambled to keep upBrantly, Memphis State senior and 1957. Southern Amateur champ, missed a four-foot putt on the 18th which would have tied him for the lead. The 200-pound Wettlaufer, National Intercollegiate finalist from Hamilton College, was erratic on the front with four bogies and two birdies, but came back to play the tougher nine in two under.

Expect Dodgers To Follow Lead To Move West United Press Sports Writer NEW YORK (UP> — Brooklyn goes next—and when the Dodgers finally do decide on Los ABTy B EK, probably within the next 30 days, they’ll leave the welcome mat out in New York for the Cincinnati Redlegs. Dodger President Walter O’Malley wasn’t particularly concerned today that the New York Giants had beaten him to the punch by their decision to play in San Francisco next year, but it was considered a foregone conclusion tltat he will have a similar announcement of his own before Oct. 1. Even before the Dodgers transfer to Los Angeles, however, the Cincinnati Redlegs are expected to consumate a deal whereby they will play in the Polo Grounds next year. Rep. Patrick J. Hillings (RCalif.) said in Washington that he "doubted" the Giants would have taken the step they did Monday without an "understanding” that Brooklyn would move to Los Angeles. Hillings added that the Giants* decision to forsake New York was a forerunner of a Dodger shift by Oct. 1, and that he expects either Cincinnati or Pittsburgh .to move a National League franchise to New York after Brooklyn leaves. Redlegs Seek Larger Gate The Redlegs, it was learned, are more inclined to make such a t
shift because they feel they have a solid, pennant - contending club which would draw far better in New York than it does in Cincinnati. Cincinnati officials have discovered they can not expect too warm a welcome from Yankee President Dan Topping as potential tenants of the Yankee Stadium but the owners of the Polo Grounds have said they would be perfectly willing to rent it to another major league club. The Polo Grounds has a capacity of 53,000 as compared with 29,584 capacity of Crosley Field in Cincinnati. On the question as to whether any major league club would have the right under baseball law to move into New York once the Dodgers join the Giants in moving to the West Coast. Commissioner Ford Frick said in Montreal Monday he planned to hold a meeting of club owners “before the World Series” to iron out the problems. The National League formally approved the shift of both the Giants and Dodgers to San Franci scoand Los Ahgeles May 28, a day after United Press Sports Editor Leo Petersen revealed that those two clubs and Cincinnati all would move. Money No Obstacle The Giants, having received the necessary approval to move from their board of directors Monday by a vote of 8-1, must now negotiate for the San Francisco franchise which is owned by Boston Red Sox President Tom Yawkey. It is understood Yawkey does not intend to stand in the Giants’ way and that he will ask a reasonable sum. Pacific Coast League officials,

however, could prove far tougher nuts to crack. They demand to be indemnified for invasion of their territory and it could be that Giant owner Horace Stoneham would be hard put to raise the kind of money they might ask. Leslie O’Connor, the one -time assistant to former commissioner K. M. Landis, and now president of the PCL, had a tart "no com-, ment” over the Giants’ latest action. If an impasse comes about between the Giants and the PCL members, the case will be brought before a seven-man baseball arbitration board and it might hold up the Giants’ official shift well into November. Obviously happy over the board of directors’ approval, Stoneham said he disliked leaving New York but was forced into the move because of waning fan interest. When asked whether he thought some other club would come into New York, the Giants’ president said, "I couldn’t tell. I do know that this move of ours is the first step in the expansion of the majors.” Junior High Gridders Will Report Thursday Bob Worthman, head football coach for the Decatur high school, announced today that boys in the Decatur junior high schools, both public and parochial, will be issued football equipment at 1 o’clock Thursday afternoon at Worthman field. These boys will play in junior high football league, which was started here several years ago and has proved highly successful. The junior high boys will register for the sport and receive their equipment at the same time Thursjday.

Heavy Champ Meets Amateur Thursday SEATTLE, Wash. (UP) — The critics scoffed and the experts ridiculed the Floyd Patterson-Pete ademacher world’s “open'" heav* yweight boxing championship herb Thursday — but promoter Jaek Hurley sat ,back to laugh today. “We’ll have a 25,000 crowd — largest ever drawn west of the Mississippi,” said Hurley. "And we expect that the gate will be, upward of $400,000.” That means that the 22 backers from Georgia who put up $250,000 will get most of their money back. Getting 60 per cent of the gate they needed something like $416,000 to break even. But they will make their money for Youths Unlimited, Inc., from the exclusive rights to films from the bout. For the first time in 36 years there will be no radio broadcast or televising of a heavyweight championship bout. Os course, to make any money off the films, Youth Unlimited is going to have to get some cooperation from the principal* tanthe fight. Rademacher, the Olympic champion, is going to have to stick around for four or five rounds to make the film saleable; 'or Patterson is going to have to “feel out” his giant opponent for a few rounds without throwing that famed knockout punch.
