Casey Stengel Bid To Testify On Sports Bill WASHINGTON (UPD — Congress, a giddy match-maker, today paired “Case” and the "Keef" for a legislative encounter which staggers the mind. I “Keef,” of course, is Sen. Estes Kefauver <D-Ten.), slow-spoken chairman of the Senate Anti-mo-nopoly subcommittee, The subcommittee is considering bills to exempt professional team sports from anti-trust laws. “Case” is Casey Stengel, dou-ble-talking manager of the New York Yankees. If e has been invited to testify next Wednesday on the exemption bills. Their meeting promises to steal the show from other baseball royalty invited to appear' for the subcommittees hearings — stars like (Ted Williams of the Boston Red Sox, Mickey Mantle of Case’s Yankees and Stan (The Man) Musial of the St. Louis Cardinals'. Not Untutored It isn’t that Case is untutored in the world of interstate commerce. He is, after all, a Glen'dale, Calif., banker, who is interested in oil properties. Nor is Keef a misfit in sports. He played tackle for the University of Tennessee back there in the early 1920’s — even if he wasn’t drafted by the pros. But Keef, whose speech is often slower than the Boston Marathon, (has been known to urge a crowd to vote for another senator —and then call him by the wrong name. And Case's rambling comments on “this feller” and "that other feller” lack the exactness of complicated anti-monopoly legislation. It Could Happen “Well now, Mr. Steinway,” Reef might wll say, “what do you think of the, uh, special reserve clause?” “Senator,” Case could well reply, "if that clause is unked which is so necessary why this game supporting these fellas . might just as well go back to those guys on the reservations.' ’ ' Kefauver, announcing hearings ( here the morning after baseball's ( All-Star Game in nearby Balti- ! more, said Robin Roberts of the Philadelphia Phillies, National ] League player representative, and Eddie Yost of the ball-plahing ( Washington Senators have also ' been' invited to testify.

Pittsburgh Slugger Is Player Os Month CINCINNATI (UPI) — It was Frank Thomas the slugger over Dick Farrell the peerless relief pitcher in the voting for the National League player of the month of June. Despite a .275 batting average for the entire month, the Pittsburgh Pirates’ Thomas won the honor from the committee of 40 baseball writers and broadcasters over the Philadelphia Phillies’ pitcher who had an 0.74 earned run average -for 13 appearances and 24 1-3 innings. Thomas won the award, 15 votes to 10 M>, because of a sensational early - month spurt during which he hit .346. He went into a * lump toward the end of the month but knocked in 29 runs and hit nine homers for the 30-day period. Farrell had a half • vote liecause one voter split his ballot between him and reliever Jtlroy Face of the Pirates. The *foot, 3-inch, 220-pound Farrell scored four of the Phillies' 12 victories in June and also pitched in three other triumphs. Thomas will receive an engraved desk set from league president Warren Giles as a memento of the honor. Willie Mays and Stan Musial tied for the honor in May. Alvin Dark of the Chicago Cubs had eight votes, Duke Snider of the Los Angeles Dodgers had four and Brooks Lawrence of the Ckncinati Redlegs had one. Dark hit .371 and drove in 13 runs in June. Snider hit .384 and drove in 14 runs and Lawrence won four games. Indict Boxing Judge On Bribery Charges NEW YORK (UP)—Bert Grant, the indicted boxing judge, said today, “I’m completely innocent of all charges, and I expect to prove it.” Smallish, dark-haired Grant of Brooklyn, who was iridicted and arrested Wednesday for allegedly accepting a total S4OO in bribes after five New York fights, declared, “The charges amazed me; I can’t understand them.” He added, “bfy lawyer told me not to talk. So I can't say anything more — except that I pleaded not guilty Wednesday, and I’m not guilty.” Grant, now at liberty on $2,500 bail, was the—'first man indicted by the “boxing grand jury” investigating corruption in the fight game. Two more indictments were expected today or Monday and several more later. The maximum penalty for fixing a fight in New York State is 10 years, for either the briber or the , man accepting the bribe. And the penalty for merely conspiring to bribe could be three years. Grant’s indictment contains 10 Counts for alleged bribery and one for conspiracy. The indictment includes as a coconspirator Hymie (The Mink). Wailman, New York furrier and fight manager: but he is not named a denendant. Wallman, alleged to have given five bribes to Grant, has been described by District Attorney Frank Hogan as “the front man” for Frankie Carbo — reputed underworld boss of homing. Indians Ask For ~ Waivers On Lemon CLEVELAND (UPD — Sorearmed Bob Lemon, who during an illustrious pitching career with the Cleveland Indians won 207 games, said he hopes , “steady work in the minors” may build up his arm. The Indians asker for unconditional waivers on the 37-year-old curve-ball specialist Wednesday in order to send him to San Diego, a Triple—A farm team. “It’s the only thing to do,” Lemon said when told that waivers were being asked on him. “If I can’t pitch down there. . . well, adios.” DECATUR (Continued tram page one) Tonight’s dance, which the public is urged to attend to meet the exchange students, and which is sponsored by the Decatur Rotary club and the American Federation of Musicians, Local 607, will then be the last event on the exchangees’ Decatur program.

Lawrence And Banning Hurl Shutout Wins By FBED DOWN United Press International It’s an irony of this year’s Alli Star game that two of the majors’ ho 11 e s t pitchers probably will spend July 8 fishing at home instead of pitching in Baltimore. They're Brooks Lawrence of the Cincinati Redlegs and Jim Bunning of the Detroit Tigers who are making up for slow stalls with mid-summer streaks. Lawrence stretched his winning streak to five games when he ' pitched a four-hitter that gave the Redlegs. a 1-0 victory over the Milwaukee Braves Wednesday night while Bunning ran his string to four in a row with a fourhitter that paced the Tigers to a 5-0 conquest of the Kansas City Athletiqs. Each pitcher has two shutouts in his screak and Banning also has a one-run game in whioh he struck out 14 New York Yankees. Lawrence, who let the first Brave reach base in five different innings, got the game's only run in the thind inning when Johnny Temple doubled, moved to third on an infield out and scored on Gus Bell’s sacrifice fly. Joey Jay, who struck out five batters and yielded five hits, was the hard-luck loser. Braves* Lead Cut The loss cut the Braves’ National League lead over the idle second - place St. Louis Cardinals to three games. The Redlegs’ only two previous victories over Milwaukee this year were scored by Bob Purkey. Cincinati lost T 8 of 22 games to the world champions last season. Buning, pitching in 90-degtee weather in Detroit, struck out five and walked three to give the Detroit staff its first complete game since June 24. Buning, Billy Martin, Al Kaline and Ossie Virgil each had two hits in the Tigers’ 14-hit attack on Ralph Terry and Walt Craddock. Bunning, who stood 2-5 on June 3, started his turnabout the day Billy Norman replaced Jack Tighe as the Tigers’ manager, June 11. Willie Mays. Ray Jablonski and Bob Schmidt homered as the San Francisco Giants beat the Chicago Cubs. 5-2, in the only other National League game. In other American League action, the New York Y a nke e s stretched their first-place lead to 9*4 games with a 4-1 triumph over the Baltimqre Orioles and the Washington Senators defeated the Boston Red Sox, 5-3. Bauer Goes 5-Fot-5 Stu Miller gained his second win of the season for San Francisco although Johnny Antonelli got the last out in the ninth by retiring pinch - hitter Jim Bolger. Lee Walls hit his 16th homer for the Cubs and Sammy Taylor doubled home another run to give them an early 2-1 lead. Dick Drott suffered his sixth defeat for Chicago. Relief ace Ryne Duren yielded only one hit in the last two inings as the Yankees rolled to their seventh triumph in 10 games. Bank Bauer went 5-for-5 to lead the Yankees’ 11-hit attack on Billy O’Dell, who suffered his ninth defeat. The victory went to Zack Monroe,' who yielded five hits in seven innings in his first major league start. The Yankees brought him up from Denver in the American Association where he had a 10-2 record. Center - fielder Faye Throneberry’s great catch of Lou Berberet’s bid for a three-run ninth inning homer helped Washington’s Camilo Pascual win his first start since June 5. Clint Courtney drove in three runs for the Senators while Ted Williams hammered a three-run homer for the Red Sox. Club House Chatter Central Soya League Team Standings Second Half Pts.
