Youth Is Captured After Wild Chase State Reformatory Escapee Captured INDIANAPOLIS (UPD-An 18-year-old Indianapolis youth who escaped from the Indiana Reformatory at Pendleton late Tuesday, raped an Ingalls woman and stole her husband’s car, was captured Tuesday night following a wild chase th rough Indianapolis streets. John Smith Caines, armed and considered “dangerous." refused to leave the ear when state police finally stopped it on the outskirts of the city. Troopers Bennett and Donald Palmer fired a shot through the back window of the car and dragged Gaines from the vehicle. Gaines escaped from the reformatory about 3:30 p.m. while loading hay on a work detail four miles from the institution. Authorities said he stopped at a home in Igalls, a few miles southwest of Pendleton in Madison County, and raped the mother of two young children, Gaines then stole her husband’s car, clothing, a rifle and ammunition and fled toward Indianapolis. Bennett and Palmer spotted the car while on a routine patrol and gave chase. They fired several shots at the fleeing car as the two vehicles roared 1 through city streets at speeds “in excess of 70 miles per hour.” A loaded rifle was lying on the back seat of Gaies’ car and state police said .Gaines undoubtedly would have used it had he had the opportunity. •_ Gaines was sentenced from Marion County last Feb. 13 to 1 to 10 years for vehicle taking. Two other imates of the reformatory escaped shortly before Gaines made his bid for freedom. Walter Ray Williams, 25, and Olendale Thomas, 23, were still at large. They were sentenced from Vanderburgh County last July 29 to 2 to 5 years for burglary. WANTABtf

Rebels Launch Major Drive On Tripoli Bridge Assault. Fol lows Up Night Os Heavy Fire At Port Os Tripoli BEIRUT, Lebanon <UPD— Rebel forces launched an assault today on a major bridge in Tripoli controlling all traffic northward toward Syria. The army moved up tanks to defend it. ._ The rebel attack on the Bahsas Bridge, some 600 yards north of the Tripoli city limits, came after a night of heavy firing inside and outside the northern port city. The attack on the bridge came at 8:30 a.m. when the rebels opened up a machine gun barrage from the fringe of the rebel-held Samir area. By 9 o’clock the rebels drove to within 300 yards of the bridge, Government forces have cut rebel life lines in the Tripoli area in an attempt to starve out the insurgents, already reported short of food and ammunition. The army threw in tanks today to stop the attempted breakout, and within minutes the wide boulevard leading to the river crossing echoed with gunfire. Shortly before the assault on the bridge the rebels set fire to the merchant district just inside government - held territory on the fringe of the no man’s land between the two forces. The insurgents claimed the buildings were being used by snipers of the Syrian Peoples (PPS>. But the army said there were no PPS forces ih tjiat area. A government com muni que claimed successes throughout the country from Tripoli south to Tyre. It reported one rebel drive which penetrated close to army positions in Tripoli was repulsed. The attack on the bridge came later, following a night of rifle fire and grenade exchanges. The firing began in Tripoli at 9 p.m. and continued until 3 o’clock this morning. Shortly before midnight a big explosion shook the no-man's land between rebel and army positions in the merchant quarter near the port. A huge fire raged there for more than four hours. 7> UPI photographer Robert Egby who saw the blast said the explosion rumbled through the shellpocked buildings while -flames lit up the sky like an early dawn. He. said that by 7 a.m. quiet was restored in Tripoli. The heavy fighting was matched by intense diplomatic and political activity. President Camille Chamoun received the three Western ambassadors and Turkish Ambassador

Today s Sport Parade (Mei. U.S. Pat Off.) By OSCAR FRALEY ' United Press International NEW YORK (UPD — The AllStar Game moves into the pitchers* paradise called Memorial Stadium at Baltimore next Tuesday and from here it looks like an American League triumph in what well may provide the stingiest pitching the contest has seen in 18 years. Memorial Stadium with its vast acreage and distant fences is not a slugger’s ball park. To top it off, the American League undoubtedly has the edge when it comes to pitching this time around. —- And pitching, or the lack of it, is what decides ball games. Magnanimously awarding the American League staff the accolade of superiority, a survey of the Baltimore records this season has to'make the American League the decided favorite. Baltimore, as example, has hosted 33 games this season as of Tuesday. Pitching was the key factor two-thirds of the time with a number of brilliant performances. Gaines Were Close , Os those 33 games at Memorial Stadium, 10 were decided by one : run and 10 others were shutouts. Pitchers laboring on the Baltimore hill had pitched a one-hit-ter, a trio of two-hitters, a threehitter. six four-hitters and six five-hitters. Which means that outstanding pitching featured 17 of the 33 contests. Both sides undoubtedly will now shower down with a record number of basehits come Tuesday. But, considering the record, this park should produce a tightlypitched affair with the accent on getting one run across. Maybe the tightest. In recent years the club wielders have had a field day. The closest thing to a pitching duel was in 1952 when both sides chalked up only eight hits as the National League won a 3 to 2 thriller. But you have to discount that somewhat because the game was called at the end of the fifth iiining because of rain. Thus, to get the piece de resistance of the classic in the matter of limiting the number of hits, you have to go all the way back to the 1940 tilt at St. Louis. Both teams managed a total ,of only 10 hits that day—low total for the series — as the National Leaguers won the game by a 4 to 0 count. May Start Turley Casey Stengel, the American League manager by virtue of being the pennant winer, has won only two of the seven AllStar games in which he has man-

aged. But this time around he looks to have the tools of victory. Old K. C. is expected to open with either his own Bob Turley or Early Wynn of the White Sox. If there’s a shift to left-handed batting power he can follow up with Whitey Ford, Digger O’Dell or Billy Pierce and his ace in the hole down the stretch is Ryne Duren. Turley, in • one Baltimore appearance this year, hurled a onehitter. Wynn pitched a seven-hit-ter there but was clubbed in another Baltimore outing. Ford tossed a five-hitter at the stadium and O’Dell has a four-hitter to his credit there. The American Leaguers also have the advantage of familiarity with the wide-open premises. So you have to be a longshot better
