for Decatur, striking out two of three men he faced. The Jackets committed eight errors ttf aid the New Haven cause, i with six coming in the second inning as the Bulldogs scored four runs on one hit. New Haven batted around in the second as well as the fourth and fifth on its home field. The scoring started after Daniels struck out Nickerson to open the second and then the roof fell in. Dave Dunford got the only hit as four Bulldogs crossed home. They added three more in the fourth off Daniels on four hits and two errors. They closed out the scoring against Wolfe in the fifth on five hits ane a walk as five more Bulldogs tallied. Five Walks Score Two Decatur's only scoring resulted from a stretch of wildness by Hanefeld as he walked Bob Shraluka, Bill Bischoff, Steve Dellinger, Terry Holtsberry, Larry Ritter and Jim Reidenbach, scoring two runs. Hanefeld managed, however, to strike out the side with the bases full of Jackets, cutting off the only serious threat. Only four Jacket outs came from other than strike-outs, as Hanefeld • worked a blazing fast ball andl sharp-breaking curve to stymie Decatur’s hope for at least a sharel of the conference title. The Jackets close the home sender the lights at Worthman field son Monday against Willshire unat 7:30 p.m. The underclassmen then travel to Huntington Tuesday to close out the regular season play.

While Sox Win ; 60 Triumph Over Yankees I By FRED DOWN > United Press International The Yankees are beating them- . selves. ’ , Never before in Casey Stengel’s I regime has that cry been heard > but that's the joyous news to American Leaguers Saturday after ’ the Chicago White Sox’ 6-0 tri- , umph over the fumbling world ' champions. “I’ve head they’ve been beating 1 themselves,” said White Sox man- ' ager Al Lopez. “But this is the first time I've actually seen it." Lopez was referring to the fact I that the Yankees had made three . errors, two by shortstop Bobby Richardson and one by catcher j Yogi Berra, two make two of the I White Sox’ runs unearned. The Yankees also committed three errors and allowed four unearned ' runs in a 7-6 loss to Clevc’and on Tuesday night. "This is the sort of thing tha* can lead to a prolonged slump.’ said Lopez. “First, you don’t hit. your defense sags and ! you’re in a real slump. I’m not 'saying it’s going to happen to the ! Yankees but the symptoms are 1 there for anybody to see. It's hopcfull to all us down-pressed.” Pitched Six-Hitter Billy Pierce pitched a six-hitter and struck out seven batters as the White Sox rolled to their seventh straight victory It was Pierce’s fifth win and marked the third time in 25 games the Yankees were shut out. The first-place Indians remained a half game ahead of the White Sox with a 4-3 decision over the Boston Red Sox, the Baltimore Orioles pulled out a 2-1 win over the Detroit Tigers and the Kansas City Athletics beat the Washington Senators, 4-2. in other American League games. The. Cincinnati Reds downed the San Francisco Giants. 5-2, and the St. Louis Cardinals routed the Philadelphia Phillies, 8-2, in the only National League activity. Bubba Phillips hit' a two-run double in the sixth inning and also contributed a single to a two-run eighth-inning rally for the White Sox who dealt Whitey Ford his second loss. Pierce faced only 20 1 batters in the first six innings ' struck out seven and let only one 1 Yankee reach third.

Grant Gets Second j Tocky Colavito’s ninth homer 1 and Minnie Minoso’s fourth were the big blows as Cleveland’s Jim Grant picked up his second win with ninth-inning relief help from rookie Jim Perry. Frank Malzone singled and Jackie Jensen homered to lead off the Boston ninth but I then Perry hustled out of the bullpen to retire the next three batters in order. Bob Nieman homered behind a leadoff single by Bob Boyd in the ninth inning to lift Baltimore’s Billv Loes to his third win and deal Lofty Don Moski his seteead loss. The Tigers had snapped a scoreless duel between Mossi and 20-y ear-old Jerry Walker on a seventh-inning homer by Lou Berveret. * Hector Lopez’ three-run homer in the seventh gave the Athletics their second straight victory and the Senators their fifth loss in six struck out seven and pitched a five-hitter for the Athletics to win his second ggme while four-game winner Russ Kemmerer suffered his second setback. Newcombe Pitched Seven-Hitter Don Newcombe drove in three runs with a homer and a double, struck out seven and picthed a seven-hitter for the Reds. Vada Pinson contributed a triple and a double to the Reds' 14-hit attack which sent Jack Sanford down to his third defeat. Leon Wagner homered for the Giants. Ken Boyer hit his seventh hom«r and George Crowe and Bill White also homered for the Cardinals who got four-hit, 10-strike-out pitching by Vinegar Bend Mizell en route to this fourth win. The loss was the fifth straight for the Phillies who also trail in a suspended game. Robin Roberts’ record was squared at 2-2.

Four New Teams Take Regional Crowns Friday INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — Indianapolis Shortridge was wearing its first Indiana high school regional track and field crown today as four new titlists came down to the wire for the state championsfhip meet next Saturday at Indianapolis Tech, and a new all-time regional record was in the books. Lawrenceburg’s James Sturgeon zipped home in 49.6 in the 440yard dash at Indainapolis Tech, two-tenths of a second under Don Wards top regional mark set in 1953 tor Marion. It was also the season's best time. Shortridge churned past Richmond. 30-25, at Tech as the host school lost its regional title. The Blue Devils qualified five men and its halt mile relay team, and xjemajor threat to South Bend Central's state championship. • * At Mishawaka. Gary Roosevelt emerged victorious as it bested favored city foe Froebel, 27-24, and South Bend Central finished third.

Roosevelt qualified four men and both relay teams while Froebel. not at its best because of the loss of J.D. Smith who held the season's best marks in the 100 and 220 yard dashes, was able to put only two men and its mile relay team into txc May 23rd state finals. Eklhart wa an easy winner at Fort Wayne where Kokomo and Fort Wayne South lost the title they shared. Elkhart qualified eight men and its half-mile quartet for the finals as Windfall’s Dave Osborn hung up new times for the 100 and 220 yard dashes with :10.0 and ;21.6 respectively. New Albany was the day’s other regional winner at Bloomington as last year’s champion Terre Haute Gerstmeyer fell by the wayside. The Bulldogs sent eight men to the “state," but failed to qualify either relay team, and that puts New Albany’s chances for the state crown on a muddy track. New Albany’s Tom Hutchinson, holder of the best high jump mark in the state this season, could do no better than 5 feet 11 inches Friday, as rain plagued the meet and hampered the cindermen from turning in better performances.

But Shortridge’s Gerry Williams shot over the bar at 6 feet 3 and % inches At Tech for a new meet mark and stamped himself as a contender for honors next week. The other record breaker of the day was Warsaw’s Larry Ruch who soared 12 feet 11 and % inches in the pole vault at Fort Wayne. He already held the season’s best flight at 12 feet 9 inches. With Smith off Froebel’s half mile relay team, which had recorded the fastest time this year at 1:29.8, the Blue Devils’ have their ambitions for a stale championship reduced to a pessimistic OUtlOOk. r.. Shortridge’s hfilf-mile crew ran home first in 1:32.4, and its fleetfooted dashman, Al Evans, took blue ribbons in both the 100 and 220 yard dashes. Shortridge should have a formidable charge to halt if somebody else wants to sit on the state championship thome. Roosevelt’s mile relay team has the season’s best time at 3:28.2. It also has a very fast man in Joe Phillips who tied a meet mark for the 440 at 50 seconds flat Friday. Indianapolis Ripple qualified seven men and Tech five men and its half-mile relay team, while Muncie Central will be presented by five men and Richmond three men and its half-mile relay team. South Bend Central qualified five men and its half-mile relay team.

$225,000 Offered Basilio To Fight NEW YORK (UPl)—lrving B. Kahn, president of Teleprompter Corporation, announced today: “I have put up $225,000 to be used Us a minimaWi guarantee for Carmen Basilio if he’ll fight Sugar Ray Robinson at Philadelphia on Sept. 21.’ ( The chubby closed - circuit tycoon said the money is in the Chemical Corn Exchange Bank at Broadway and 44th St. "I’m asking the Pennsylvania, state Athletic Commission for instructions as to the form in which I shall post this guarantee in Philadelphia," he added. "Whether it should be a bond, certified check or what." Youngish, dark-haired Kahn said he would be delighted to appear as a witness for Robinson at Monday’s hearing before the New York state Athletic Commission "if anybody asks me." The commission will decide whether to’ vacate Sugar Ray’s 160-pound title—as the National Boxing Association And the big issue is this: Can Robinson furnish proof that he has made an all-out effort to "enter into articles of agreement" with ex-champion Basilio for a title fight? "I’ll be glad to testify,” said Kahn eagerly. "I’ll tell them how Sugar Ray—assured of my financial backnig—has been offering to guarantee Basilio the bigest purse of his career. But Carmen and his co-managers have been branding his offer a phony—without inquiring where the money is coming from. And they haye refused to negotiate with the Philadelphia promoter. “I’ll tell them the next move should be up to Basilio, if he wants the fight, because there’s nothing phony about this guarantee, The money is up—more money than Basilio’s all-time biggest purse—which was $211,629 for his
