All-Star Game On Tuesday At Forbes Field BULLETIN PITTSBURGH (UPI) — Don Drysdale. Lot Angeles Dodger right-hander, and Early Wynn, veteran Chicago White Sox workhorse, today were named the starting pitchers for Tuesday’s 26th annual All-Star game. PITTSBURGH (UPD — It just could be that a National League castoff will be the starting American League pitcher in Tuesday’s 26th annual major league All-Star game at Forbes Field. And it's just as possible that a strong-armed righthander who got his start in the junior circuit will be on the mound for the National Leaguers when the call “play ball’’ is sounded. One of the men in question is Hoyt Wilhelm, one-time relief specialist of the National League who —along with his tricky knuckleball — found a new facet this season as a starter for the Baltimore Orioles. The other is Lew Burdette, hero of the 1957 World Series and star of the Milwaukee Braves, who once was New York Yankee property. However, all speculation will end later today since rival managers Casey Stengel of the Yanks and Fred Haney of the Braves

were expected to make known their starting pitchers. One thing was certain. The first “pitch” will be thrown by Vice President Richard M. Nixon. Triandos to Receive It was logical, though, that Casey would call on Wilhelm to work the first three innings since Hoyt’s Baltimore batterymate, Gus Triandos. will start behind the plate for the* American League. If there’s anyone who can catch Wilhelm’s baffling knuckles, it's Triandos. Regardless of who gets the starting mound assignment for the AL, Stengel won’t be worried about what the experts might say. Last week, a few eyebrows were raised when he picked Ted Williams and Roy Sievers as alternates on his squad. To this criticism, Casey snorted: “I have too many problems involving the Yankees to get myself an ulcer over what people think of my choices. If wedon’t win — and if it's my fault — I'll not dodge the responsibility.” Oddsmakers here quoted the National League 6-5 favorites on the basis of the senior loop’s slugging power and a better starting pitcher. Burdette Choice Logical The betting on Burdette as the National League starter, despite the fact he pitched Saturday night against the Phils, held some logic because only one left-handed hitter — the White Sox’ Nellie Foxwill be in the opening lineup for the AL. Haney also has available as, pitchers right-handers Don Drysdale of the Dodgers. Roy Face of the Pirates, Gene Cbnley of the Phils and Don Elston of the Cubs ( in addition to southpaws Warren Spahn of the Braves and Johnny Antonelli of the Giants. Elston

Finsterwald, . Art Wall In K Golf Playoff t 3 By LLOYD NORTHARD z United Press International j GRAND BLANC, Mich. (UPD—j Art Wall Jr. and Dow Finsterwald , teed off for one of golf’s biggest , jackpots today in 18-hole playoff and both were apologetic , about the turn of events that ■ forced the Buick Open into overl time. To the playoff winner goes $9,000 plus 25 per cent of the gate receipts. The loser will collect $4,600 and an equal share of the spectator fees. Wall and Finsterwald finished . in a tie for first place Sunday at the end df hte regulation 72 holes when both went over par on the final hole. Their 282 totals, including par 72s on the last round, put them one stroke ahead of Cary Middlecoff and Jerry Barber. Wall, Pocono Manor, Pa., the 35-year-old Masters champion and top money winner of 1959, was in the next to last threesome and had a tone stroke lead over Finsterwald heading to the final tee. . Finsterwald, Tequesta, Fla., was in the last threesome and figured he needed a par to gain a tie “with three or four others” for the lead. He was pleasantly suiprised, but upset as well, when he found ' that his bogey five deadlocked > him with Wall. , Both golfers overshot the green . with their third shot on the last t hole, but Finsterwald chipped to , within 30 inches for a one putt j while Wall was more than four feet from the pin and two-putted. Middlecoff, Hollywood, Fla., was eight strokes off the pace going into the final round and set a course record with a closing 65. He was eight under par through the first 16 holes but took a bogey four at the 222-yard 17th and that cost him a chance for a first place tie. , He earned $2,800 as did Barber, Los Angeles, who closed with a 67. Jay Hebert, Sanford, Fla., and Pete Cooper, Lakeland, Fla., had 69s on the final day and earned $2,200 apiece for 284 totals. L took Vinegar Bend Mizell’s spot cm the roster after the St. Louis Cardinal lefty asked to be excused because of a pulled back muscle. Other American League possibiliiies were Early. Wynn, White Sox; Jim Bunning, Tigers: and Ryne Duren, Yankees — all righthanders — or lefties Whitey Ford, Yankees: Bud Daley, Athletics; and Billy Pierce, White Sox. A sellout crowd of 35,000 and a nation-wide television and radio audience will be treated to a galaxy of the “majors' best” talent. The starters were picked by their fellow players, managers and coaches. The pitchers and alternates were named by Stengel and Haney, respectively.

Braves Regain : Slim Lead In ' National Race By NORMAN MILLER United Press International i Funny thing if that tight National League pennant race wound up • in a three-team tie, wouldn’t it? i Well, that’s not so far-fetched, bud. It almost happened 51 years ago, y’know. And the way the Milwaukee Braves, San Francisco I Giants and Los Angeles Dodgers are hanging in there, it could happen in 1959. What’s more, if the Pittsburgh Pirates remain in contention, this could be the closest four-club race in baseball history. As the teams take the mid-sea-son break for Tuesday's All-Star game, the Braves lead the Giants by three percentage points and the Dodgers trail both by a halfgame. The Pirates, in fourth place, are only 3% games off the lead. How close can it get? In 1908, the Chicago Cubs, under Frank Chance, beat out the deadlocked John McGraw Giants and the Fred Clarke-led Pirates by one game. Braves Hold Slim Lead Milwaukee regained a slim firstplace margin Sunday when Carlton Willey beat the Philadelphia Phillies, 5-0, with a four-hitter while the Giants divided a pair of 4-2 decisions with the St. Louis Cardinals. The Dodgers won a double-header from the Cubs, 4-3 and 5-3, and the Pirates swept the Cincinnati Reds, 7-5, and 3-2 in 11 innings. In the American League, the Cleveland Indians retained a twogame lead over the Chicago White Sox, while the champion New York Yankees fell further back. Cleveland edged the Detroit Tigers, 5-4, and Chicago beat the Kansas City Athletics, 4-3, both in 10 innings. The Washington Senators blanked the Yankees, 7-0, and the Boston Red Sox won a doubleheader for new manager Billy Jurges, beating the Baltimore Orioles, 9-0 and 6-3. Joe Adcock and Ed Mathews each drove in two runs for the Braves to ease Willey’s path to victory over Philadelphia. Bill White, a reserve All-Star Star outfielder, hit the first grand slam homer of his major league career for the Cards to sink his former Giant teammates in the opener. A two-run first-inning homer by Willie Mays staked Sam Jones to an early lead in the nightcap. Stellar Relief Pitching ’ Stellar relief pitching by Danny McDevitt in the opener and by Sandy Koufax and Johnny Klippstein in the nightcap helped the Dodgers win a pair from the Cubs. Don Hoak's homer touched off a three-run, six-inning rally that gave Harvey Haddix and the Pirates an opening-game triumph over Cincinnati. In the nightcap, after Gus Bell’s two-run ninth-in-ning homer had sent the game into extra innings. Bill Mazeroski delivered a two-out, llth-inning single that clinched the victory 1 for Ron Kline. Cleveland preserved its American League lead by pushing across an unearned run in the . 10th inning on George Strickland’s double and Detroit first baseman
