Williams Leads Boston To Win Over Yankees By JOHN .GMFFIN United Press International A couple of old pros named Ted Wiliams and Mickey Mantle are right in trim for that big AlStar Game in Baltimore Tuesday,' but the way some of the other “stars” pl aye d Sunday you couldn’t tell them from the alsorans without a scorecard. Williams slammed three hits, including his 14th homer of the season, and boosted, his batting average to a season-high of 314 as the Boston Red Sox drubbed the New York Yankees, 10-4. Mantie, meantime, hammered his 21st homer for the Yankees with one mate aboard. Jackie Jensen and Frank Malzone of the Red Sox, selected along with Williams for the midseason classic, got in th spirit, too, with three runs-batted ; in each. But how about relief pitcher Larry Jackson of the Cardinals? He lost a 5-4 decision to the Giants when he hit batter Jim Davenport with a pitched ball with the bases loaded m the ninth inning—one day after he’d lost to the same team, also 5-4, by walking a batter with the bases jammed in the ninth. Take Back Seats None of the other All - Star players fared as badly as Jackson. But by and large they took back seats to a bunch of overlooked players like Jim Bunning of the Tigers, Roman Semproch of the Phillies, Joey Jay of the Braves, Ike Delock on the Red Sox, Gus Bel and Walt Dropo of the Redlegs, and Dick Drott and Don Elston of the Cubs. None of those chaps, will be around when the big game starts in Baltimore. In addition to the Red Sox’ win over the Yankees, other A.L. action Sunday saw the Detroit Tigers nip the Chicago White Sox, 2-1; the Washington Senators beat Baltimore, 4-3; and the Cleveland Indians downed Kansas City, 8-5. Besides the Giants, other National League winners included the Redlegs. by 11-4 in the second game on, a twin bill over the Phillies after losing the first 7-1; the Cubs, 6-2, over Los Angeles; and the Braves, 2-0, over Pittsourgh. Wins 10th Straight Dlock, with the batting aid of Williams, Jensen, and Malzone, pitched a seven - hitter to beat the Yankees. It was his 10th straight win and his third straight since becoming a starting pitcher lon June 26. The loss snapped the Yankees’ five - game winning streak but left them 11 games in front of the league at the AllStar Game "break.” Bunning gave up only six hits in winning his fifth straight game for the Tigers, pitching shutout ball until pinch - hitter Earl Torgeson doubled home a run in the ninth inning. The Tigers got both their runs in the fourth inning off Dick Donovan in a rally built around Frank i Boiling’s douole. Semproch hurled a five-hitter ■ to give the Philies their opening : game victory, his 10th of the season, and he too had a shutout until the ninth inning. In the nightcap, Bell and Dropo each ' drove in three runs to lead the Redlegs to a win that snapped ] the Phillies' seven - game winning streak. Weak At Plate Jay’s four-hit pitching enabled the Braves to end their five-game losing streak, even though they stil were deep in their batting slump. Jay fanned nine batters and Wes Covington drove in both of the Braves’ runs, one with a homer. Drott and Elston combined to hurl a one-hitter against the Dodgers, the lone safety coming when Junior Gilliam “blooped" a single into short right with one out in the seventh inning. Cal Neeman drove in three Cubs’ runs. The Indians scored six runs in the fourth inning in beating the Kansas City A’s with Billy Hunter’s base -loaded double the big blow. Gary Bell, after pitching no-hit ball for five innings, hung oh- to gain his third win. The Senators’ victory over the Orioles was their first against that team in Washington since May 27, 1957. They got their ’ winning run in the eighth when pinch-hitter Julio Becquer singled Rocky Bridges home from second* base.

Turley, Sphan Named To Start All-Star Game BALTIMORE, Md. (UPD — Manager Fred Haney, making a last-minute switch, today named his southpaw ace Warren Spahn to oppose bullet Bob Turley, the Yankees’ 12 - game winner, in Tuesday’s 25th annual All-Star game. Although the American League will have eight right-handed batters, in its lineup, Haney selected Spahn, who has won 10 games while losing five this season, over Bob Friend, the 10-game winner of the Pirates- Friend was expected to be his choice because he is sf right-hander. Spahn, who is appearing in the All-Star game for the 10th time, has a record of one victory against no defeats in the classic. Spahn won the All-Star game in 1953. Manager Casey Stengel of the Yankees went along with his original selection in naming Turley, who has lost ■ only three games this year. Neither Haney nor Stengel announced which pitchers they would use aftef the two starters. Name Battery Orders Stengel, in naming his batting order, put his star centerfielder, Mickey Mantle, into the second spot instead of the third or fourth spots in which he usually bats. He named Nellie Fox, White Sox second baseman and the only left-handed hitter in the American League lineup, to lead off, followed by Mantle, who is a switchhitter. Rightfielcler Jackie Jensen of the Red Sox will bat third with leftfielder Bob Cerv of the Athletics in the cleanup spot. Then will come Moose Skowron, Yankee first baseman; Frank Malzone, Red Sox third baseman; Gus Triandos, Orioles catcher; ’ Lou Aparacio. White Sox shortstop, and Turley. Willie Mays, Giants’ centerfielder, will lead off for the National League, followed by leftfielder Bob Skinner of the Pirates. First baseman Stan Musial of the Cardinals will bat third, with rightfielder Hank Aaron of the Braves in the cleanup spot. ' Folowing Aaron will be shortstop Ernie Banks of the Cubs: third baseman Frank Thomas of the Pirates; second baseman Bill Mazeroski of the Pirates; catcher Del Crandall of the graves, and Spahn. Stengel Defends Team Both managers indicated they would stay with their starting players if they jump out in front. Stengel, miffed at his past failures as manager of the American League team, defended his 1958 squad as “one of the strongest ever.” Smarting under suggestions that 'the squad is heavily weighed with his own New York Yankees—he named seven of them in addition to the two who were chosen as

starters—Stengel growled: "Why don't they wait to see who wins before they start their second guessing. “I’m not out to make this game the Yankees against the National ■ League,” he added. !

Art Bisch Dies Os Auto Race Injuries By United Press International The auto racing fraternity today mourned the death of Art Bisch, the second starter in this year’s Indianapolis “500” to die of crash Another top driver was killed in France Sunday. Bisch, 31, Phoenix, Ariz., died Sunday in Crawford Long Hospital at Atlanta from injuries sustained in a 100-mile championship race on the Fourth of July at nearby Lakewood Speedway. Bisch was injured on the 39th lap of a big-car race won by Jud Larson of Kansas City, Mo. He died of shock, head and chest injuries. Bisch was knocked out of the “500” Memorial Day in the first lap pile-up of 16 cars which killed Pat O’Connor of North Vernon, Ind. A week later he won a 100mile championship race at Milwaukee. Bisch was a rookie at the Speedway this year. In 1957 he was number 20 in the race for the national big car championship. The veteran of 10 years of racing was fifth in Pacific Coast midget championship competition last year. He was married and the father of three children. Meanwhile in Rheims, France, another highly-regarded driver was injured fatally in a crash. Luigi Musso’s car hurtled off the track in the Grand Prix of France on the 10th lap of the 50lap race won. by -Mike Hawthorn of England. The Italian star died a short time later in a hospital. Musso was thrown from the cockpit of the big Ferrari which was running in second place only 30 yards behind Hawthorn. The j car turned end over end. I Musso impressed American aces with his driving in the recent 500 Miles of Monza classic in Italy. He won the pole by averaging more than 174 miles per hour in qualification. Musso fought for the lead with Jim Rathmann of Miami, Fla., who went on to win the race, before he was overcome by exhaust fumes and forced from the race. Troy Ruttmann, 1952 “500” winner from La Mirada, Calif., finished 10th in the race which killed , Musso. It was his first Grand: Prix start. He drove a Maserati. I There were conflicting reports, I meanwhile, regarding the status i of world driving champion Juan Fangio, who finished fourth in ! Sunday's Grand Prix. Reliable sources said Fangio would quit racing "soon.” Fangio himself refused com- ■ ment. Through a friend he said ■ "this is not the time to say anything about that.” His manager, ! Marcello Giambertone, denied the report. He said Fangio has com- ' mitments to race in England and Portugal and may also race in, Morocco, u hi » i - "n! MAJOR American League W. L.
