Dodgers Whip Braves Twice In Twin Bill By FRED DOWN --- United Press International The crux of the National League pennant race may be that Johnny Antonelli is enjoying his best season in five years while Warren Spahn is having his worst in seven. Antonelli, San Francisco’s star lefty, is now 10-3 and enroute to his finest year since he had a 21-7 record for the world champion Giants in 1954. Spahn, who averaged 21 victories a season for the last six years, stands 8-8 and is headed tor his worst record since he was 14-19 for the Braves ni 1952. All of which helps to explain why the Braves have been unable to shake off the pursuing- Giants —not to mention the Pittsburgh Pirates, Los Angeles Dodgers and Chicago Cubs as well. The Giants made hay out of the situation again Wednesday when they advanced to within a halfgame of first place by beating the Cincinnati Reds, 7-5, while the Dodgers clipped the Braves, 19-2 and 4-0, in- a twi-night doubleheader. Antonelli Wins 10th Antonelli went seven innings for his 10th victory for San Francisco but the Dodgers rocked Spahn for five runs in 1-3 of an inning to set up their rout in the opener at Los Angeles. The Chicago Cubs beat the Pirates, 5-2, and the St. Louis Cardinals whipped the Philadelphia Pillies, 10-4, in other NL games. In the American League the New York Yankees defeated the Chicago White Sox, 7-3, the Baltimore Orioles edged out the Detroit Tigers, 4-0, and the Wshington Senators beat the Kansas City Athletics, 7-2. ; Antonelli yielded nine hits and walked two batters but struck out six before he gave way to Sam Jones in the eighth after Pete Whisenant led off with a hcttner. The Giants had taken a 7-2 lead in the sixth wibth a five-run burst. Jim Gilliam greeted Spahn with a leadoff homer and the Dodgers went on to rout Spahn with an attack that included a three-run first-inning triple by 245-pound rooke Frank Howard. Sandy Koufax went the distance behind the Dodgers’ 15-hit attack. McDevitt Pitches 2-hitter Danny McDevitt pitched a twohitter to best JoeyJayin the second game which was scoreless unI til the Dodgers la Hied»two Kt»s in the seventh. Cal Neeman's three-run insideI the-park eighth-inning homer ena- ‘ bled Bill Henry of the Cubs to win his fifth game'and dealt Harvey Haddix his fifth defeat. Rookie Marshall Bridges yielded one run in 5 1-3 innings of relief to pick up the win for St. Louis in his major league debut. The Cardinals clinched the victory in the fifth when they sent 10 men to bat and scored five uns. Ryne Duren’s 2 2-3 innings of strong relief and Mickey Mantle’s 14th homer led a 14-hit Yankee attack and lifted the world champions back to the .500 mark with a second straight win over the White Sox. Milt Pappas pitched a two-hitter for his first big league shutout and Gus Triandos and Chico Carrasquel homered for the Orioles. Rookie Bob Allison’s 17th homer and Reno Bertoia’s eighth sparked the Senators’ 11-hit attack that dealt Ned Garver his fifth defeat. Confesses Shotgun Slaying Os Husband JASPER, Ind.

Jackets Whip Petroleum By 14 To 1 Score Decatur’s Yellwo Jackets ran. their unbeaten summer streak to three straight Wednesday evening' at Worthman, pumping two Petroluem pitchers for 11 hits and 14 runs, scoring a lopsided 14-1 victory as Harley Wolfe struck out 12 batters in five frames. Bob Walters, Tom Grabill, and Jim Gay led the Jacket barrage, each getting a, pair of safeties, ■ including Gay's second summer • league home run. John Cowan, ■ who relieved Wolfe in the sixth 1 'iifi struck out four, scored four times with only one official time ’ at bat. The Jackets, under Coach Bill * McColly, scored in every inning except the sixth in rapping pitchI ers Warner and Dulworth almost : at will. Jacket defense also play- ; ed an important role as no errors . were made by the not-too-exper-i ienced squad. Wolfe, in notching his first summer league triumph, blazed fast balls past the futile swatting of Petroleum hitters, striking out the side in the fourth and fifth innings and getitng two each in the first, second and third. Cowan struck out the side in sixth and added another in the seventh for a grand total of 16. The Jackets travel to Lafayette Central for another league skirmish tonight at 6:30 o’clock.

Cuban Welterweight Winner Over Akins MIAMI BEACH, Fla. (UPD—A virtually unlimited boxing future beckoned today to unbeaten Cuban I welterweight Luis Manuel Rodriguez, but what's to become of his latest victim, former champioq Virgil (Honey Bear) Akins? Rodriquez, a 2-1 favorite in a late switch of odds, gave Akins a solid drubbing to gain the unanimous decision in their nationallytelevised 10-round bout Wednesday night, the fourth loss in the last five bouts for Akins. Although Rodriguez hinted

broadly that Akins has "lost bds' punch,” the farmer champ insisted today that he’s not considering retiring. ‘ "I’ll fight some more’and knock off a few mare;” Akins declared. ‘Til be back up again.” But the lopsided nature of Rodriguez’ triiimph, 21st for the 22-year-old Cuban who was making his U.S. debut, left the future very murky for the 32'year-old Akins of St. Louis, Mo., whose career has been sliding downhill since he tost the crown last year to Don Jordan. The three ring officials voted for RodrigueZ as follows: Judge Freddie Aaronson, 99-92; Judge Carl Gardner, 99-93; and Referee Cy Gottfried, 98-93. The UPI scoresheet agreed, 99-93.

I There were no knockdowns, but! Rodriguez was pretty much in command from the second round on. The Cuban was carrying the fight to Akins, and the ex-champ appeared to be seeking a onepunch explosion that would turn the | fight his way. Akins, who weighed 148% pounds to Rodriguez’ 147, never found that opportunity.
