Casey Smiles As Yanks Win Second Sox Tilt By MILTON RICHMAN United Press Sports Writer Casey Stengel's two famous trademarks — the wink and the impish grin—finally were back in place today as befits a chipper skipper who knows he has just about wrapped up his eighth pennant in nine tries. The Yankees restored that longabsent Stengel grin Wednesday night when they widened their American League lead to a fullblown sft games by knocking over the ambitious Chicago White Sox for the second straight night, 5-4. Don Larsen was the winner, but the hero was reliever Bob Turley, who was summoned from the pullpen for the second successive night and nailed down the Yankee triumph. Turley first got Larsen out of a jam in the sixth inning, then worked himself out of a bases-loaded situation in the seventh after yielding a two- run homer to Earl Torgeson. Hank Bauer hammered, his 15th homer of the year in the seventh off loser Billy Pierce. Orioles On Rampage The Baltimore Orioles staged the biggest offensive in their history to maul the Cleveland Indians, 19-6, while Washington defeated Kansas City, 3-2, and Boston beat Detroit, 1-0, on Ted Williams’ 33rd homer of the season. In the National League, the Dodgers took over second place with a 14-inning, 4-3 triumph over the Cubs: the Giants crushed the Braves, 12-6, slicing their lead to seven games; Cincinnati climbed 1 back inho the first division with a

Robinson Fight May Be Stopped By Club NEW YORK (UP) — In a surprise switch, the International Boxing Club today threatened to call off the Ray Robinson-Carmen Basilio fight, but Sugar Ray — who called it off last week—said, "I’m definitely going through with the fight.’’ The IBC threat was made because of a new demand for $300,000 for theater-televisioh by a Robinson representative, who disrupted the nine-day settlement negotiations. Attorney Sidney O. Friedman for the IBC said he would appear at today's meeting of the N.Y. State Athletic Commission and ask for "proper action.” He said, "If Robinson confirms the $300,000 demand, there may be no fight.” Last Monday, the commission ordered Sugar Ray to go through with his scheduled title defense against Basilio at Yankee Stadium. Sept. 23, or risk losing his middleweight crown by forfeit. At that time Robinson said he would fight if there was no television, but "I’ll walk out of the ring if I see a theater -TV cami era. ’ ’ However, the commission said his contracts called for a closed - circuit presentation by Theater Network Television, Inc. The champion objected to TNT televising the fight because it offered no cash guarantee — just a guarantee that 400,000 seats would be available; whereas another organization, the Teleprompter Corp, had offered him a $250,000 guarantee That $250,000 would be in addition to his 45 per cent of the net gate, radio and movies. Wednesday night, TNT finally offered a $250,000 guarantee. Then came the blow-up wheh a Robinson advisor, George Gainford, told the negotiators, “If you raised that offer to $300,000, Robinson probably would go for it.” Robinson said today, “I never made the $300,000 request, but I haven’t accepted the TNT offer of $250,000 because it only matches the original offer I got from Tele-
