Tomy Lee Wins Kentucky Derby Race Saturday LOUISVILLE, Ky. (UPD—AII hands agreed today that Willie Shoemaker’s great ride aboard Tomy Lee atoned for his “boner” in 1957, but the other disputes stemming from the Kentucky Derby won't be settled until the Preakness on May 16. Shoemaker, the unhappy chap who "blew” the ’57 Derby when he misjudged the finish line aboard Gallant Man, was the personal star of the ’59 Roses Run for his perfect stretch ride aboard the victorious Tomy Lee. "If Shoemaker had switched the other day, he might haye beaten me.” said Frank Childs, trainer of Tomy Lee, referring to the fact that Shoemaker had chosen to ride Tomy Lee. instead of Sword Dancer, the horse .which finished, second in one of the roughest races in Derby history. Harmony Ended There "A game horse won the race and a hell of a jockey,” admitted Elliott Burch, trainer of Sword Dancer. But right there the harmony ends because Burch thinks Tomy Lee bumped Sword Dancer “pretty good” and Childs goes along with the official stewards’ ruling that it was "only a brush.” There was no camera focussed to take head-on pictures of the action on the last turn where the

So that argument will hang fire until the two horses meet again in the slightly shorter Preakness, second leg of the turfs “Triple Crown,” at Pimlico two weeks hence. But. win or lost at Pimlico, there’ll be no Triple Crown for Tomy Lee. Childs indicated the Fred Turner colt will pass up the “third jewel” Belmont Stakes in favor of running in the Hollywood Derby on June 27. Childs said this decision was not due to the Belmont's rugged mile-and-a-half distance.

"Will Go On And On” “After Saturday’s race, I believe he (Tomy Lee) will,go on and on, don’t you?” asked Childs. “But we feel that those people at Hollywood Park have been so nice to us that we want to run Tomy Lee in their derby.” “If you can't get Shoe you might as well not run,” said trainer Moody Jolley whose Dunce finished seventh. “But don't take anything away from Boland. He rode a good race and will back up when we tangle again in the Preakness,” Burch said. First Landing, who loomed menacingly at the top of the stretch but failed to follow through, finished third with Royal Orbit fourth. Both will be back for another shot at Tomy Lee in the Preakne§#C

Tigers Whip Yanks Twice in Twin Bill By NORMAN MILLER United Press International They battled with fists and beanballs in the Indians-Senators and Pirates-Cards game Sunday, but the most damaging blows of the day Were struck by the bat of Charlie Maxwell in the Tigers' double - header sweep over the floundering Yankees. Maxwell, who owned an anemic .136 batting average going int© the twin bill, tied a majpr league record by hitting home runs in four consecutive times at bat to help the beleaiiered Tigers sink the proud world champions, 4-2 and 8-2. That made it nine setbacks in their last 10 games for the Yankees, who now are in Seventh place with a 7-12 record. Frank Lary, long a Yankee, nemesis, and Don Mossi each! pitched an eight-hitter to make it a happy managerial debut for Jimmie Dykes, who replaced Bill Norman after Saturday's game. Gordon and Piersail Banished Maxwell drove in two runs with a single and a homer in the opening game. He hit home runs in his first three times at bat in the nightcap, knocking in six more runs. Manager Joe Gordon and Jim Piersail of the Cleverland Indians were banished from the opening game of a twin bill after a nearriot was touched off by a bruchback pitch thrown by Pedro Ramos of the Washington Senators. Ramos also was ejected for throwing a baseball at Gordon. The Indians won the opener, 5-0, but lost the second game. 3-1. The Kansas City Athletics beat the Boston Red Sox, 7-3, and the Baltimore Orioles defeated the Chicago White Sox, 4-2, in 10 innings in American League single games. In the National League, players streamed on to the diamond twice to “settle” beanball disputes involving manager Solly Hemus of the St. Louis Cardinals and pitcher Bennie Daniels of the Pittsburgh Pirates. Pittsburgh won-the first game, 4-3, in 10 innings;* the second game was suspended because of the Pennsylvania curfew law with the Cards ahead, 2-1, after 6 lt z innings. Lew Gets Another Win Lew Burdette ran his record to 5-0 in pitching the Milwaukee Braves to a 9-4 victory over the San Francisco Giants; the Cincinnati Reds beat the Los Angeles Dodgers, 6-3, then lost the nightcap. 7-1; and the Philadelphia Phillies rallied to edge the Chicago Cubs, 5-4, after losing a 4-3 decision. Piersall, “dusted off” by a Ramos pitch, angrily charged out to the mound, bat in hand. Gordon joined the argument and said something that caused Ramos to throw a ball at him. Both dugouts emptied, and fists flew. Washington pitcher John Romonsky later was fined SSO by umpire Ed Hurley for intentionally throwing at a hitter. The rhubarb overshadowed Jim (Mudcat) Grant’s two-hit pitching in the opener. Washington scored three unearned runs to beat come-back-bent Mike Garcia in the nightcap. Reliever Dick Hyde saved the victory for Hal Griggs after Rocky Colavito hit his sixth homer in the ninth. Daniels and Hemus had to be restrained from throwing punches after the Cards’ player-manager was hit on the thigh by a firstinning pitch. Another Daniels pitch “shaved” Soly in the sixth and on the next serve the bat flew out of his hands and in the direction of the mound. Face Wins In Relief Both teams and Forbes Field police rushed out on the field to preserve order, but could not prevent Larry Jackson of the Cards and coach Len Levy of the Pirates from shoving each other around. Bill Mazeroski’s bases - loaded .single in the 10th inning won the opener for Pittsburgh, extending reliever Elroy Face’s record to 3-0. Other Sunday highlights: Hank Aaron hit two homers, a single and a sacrifice fly for the Braves to bring his major leagueleading average to an even .500. Frank Torre’s three-run double off Johnny Antonelli was the big blow in a five-run fifth-inning Milwaukee uprising. Jerry Lynch’s three-run ninthinning homer won the opener for Cincinnati. Danny McDevitt scattered 10 hits to win the nightcap for the Dodgers. Vada Pinson reached base safely 12 straight times in the three-game series befor McDevitt finally got him out. Tenth-inning homers by Billy Gardner and Chico Carrasquel
