Yankees Whip Cleveland By 11 To 2 Score By FRED DOWN United Press International The Yanks are coming — and with a vengeance. The hitless blunderers of a couple of weeks ago are rolling along nine runs a game in their last eight games. They’ve averaged nine runs a ame in their last five starts. And they’re rapidly catching up to a whole league that had them down and didn’t know how to keep them there. The world champions showed the largest American Lea gu e crowd of the season, 51,035, at Cleveland Friday night that they “ain’t dead yet” when they pommeled the Indians, 11-2, with a 17-hit attack. The victory inched the Yankees into sixth place — but they’re still only 444 games out of first palce and it looks like the big drive toward the top is on. The Chicago «aite Sox lengthened their first - place lead to 144 games when they beat the Boston Red Sox, 5-2, the Balti more Orioles downed the Kansas City Athletics, 6-1, and the Detroit Tigers kept one percentage point ahead of the Yankees with a 7-6 decision over the Washington Senators in the other American League games. Dodgers Defeated Braves The Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Milwaukee Braves, 5-1, the Cincinnati Reds beat the San Francisco Giants, 7-2, and the Chicago Cubs whipped the Pittsburgh Pirates, 10-5, in National League games. St. Louis at Philadelphia was rained out. Gil McDougald and Elston Howard. hiLJiomers and Tony Kubek had four hits in a Yankee attack that routed Gary Bell and enabled Art Ditmar to win his ■ third game., Late-inning homers by Bill Martin and Rocky Colavito deprived Ditmar of a shutout after the Yankees ran up an 11-0 lead. The crowd was the largest in Cleveland since Sept. 4, 1955. Harry Simpson’s three-run eighth inning double provided the White Sox with their victory and gave relief ace Gerry Staley his second win of the season. Luis Aparicio and Al Smith paced the White Sox’ 10-hit attack with two hits each while Frank Malzone homered for the Red Sox. Milt Pappas allowed only five hits in winning his fifth game for the Orioles who are only 31 percentage points out of first place. Gus Triandos and Gene Woodling. homered for the big blows that ■ dealt Ned Garver his fourth loss; against four victories. Triandos' homer was his 12th and Woodling's hiFsixth of the season. Sisler Wins First Al Kaline singled home Eddie Yost in the ninth inning to give the Tigers their victory over Washington despite two homers

■■■ •- Gene Littler Leads I Eastern Open Meet BALTIMORE (UPD—Gene Littler led the field Into the third round of the Eastern Open golf tournament today while defending champion Art Wall headed for his Pennsylvania home with a sprained ankle that may cause him to miss next week's National Open championship. Littler fired a five-under-par 67 Friday to hit the halfway mark of the 72-hole tournament with a 132, one stroke ahead of Ed (Porky) Oliver. However, the biggest news was provided by Wall, who twisted his ankle during; the second round and failed to qualify for the last two rodnds of" the tournament. It marked the first time in 47 straight tournaments that the Masters champion was on the cutoff list. “It’s just as well I failed to qualify,” said Wall, who had a 36-hole total of 150. “I twisted my ankle and should give it treatment.” Wall, one of the for next week’s National Open at Mamaropeck, N.Y., said he hurt his right ankle on the 17th hole Friday. He took a nine on the final hole for a 77. Littler, meanwhile, posted his first bogey of the tournament at the 14th hole of the second round. But he hung on to the lead in the face of a strong challenge by Oliver, who one-putted three of the last five greens for an equally impressive 67-133. Fred Hawkins of El Paso, Tex., and Henry Ransom of St. Andrews, 111., also were within striking distance of the lead. Hawkins had a 135 after a second round 68 while Ransom had a 66-136. Bracketed at 137 were Billy Maxwell of Odessa, Tex.,! Don Whitt of Borrego Springs, Calif., Dave Ragan of Chattanooga, Tenn., and Bo Wininger of Odessa. Tex.
