United States Track Stars Defeat Russia PHILADELPHIA (UPD — The greatest all-around athlete in the world is a Russian, but the United States still is the world's greatest track and field power. A 127-108 triumph over Russia in the two-day track meet here Saturday and Sunday served to re-emphasize American supremacy in the sport and tab the Yanks as heavier favorites than ever to win track honors -at the Pan - American Games in Chicago, Aug. 27-Sept. 7. and the 1960 Olympics in Rome. But, right now at least, darkhaired Vasily Kuznetsov, the Soviet strong man, is the No. 1 track star in the world. Only a drenching thunderstorm that hampered the last three events kept Kuznetsov from breaking his own world record in the decathlon event Sunday. The Russian ace was 74 points ahead of his own record pace going into those three events, but then finished seven points shy of the mark with 8,350 points. "The weather prevented it," said Gabrial Korobkov, coach of the Soviet squad. "He will do better the next time." The top U.S. rival to Kuznetsov, former world record holder Rafer Johnson of Kingbury, Calif., missed this meet because of injuries in an auto accident. But Kuznetsov looked Sunday as if he would have beaten even a healthy Johnson. As expected, the Russian women scored a 67 - 40 triumph in their meet against the best U.S. girl athletes. Final figures on this year’s meet and last year’s were strikingly similar—both times U.S. men won 14 of 22 events. Russian women won 6 of 10 events at Moscow, eight here. The surprises were about evenly divided—the defeat of American Olympic hammer throw champion Harold Connolly by Russia’s Vasily Rudenkov, the surprise second place in the hop, step, and jump by Ira Davis of Philadelphia. Record honors also were evenly divided—Parry O’Brien of Los Angeles eclipsed the world shot put record with a heave of 63

Braves Suffer Sixth Straight Defeat Sunday By FRED DOWN United Press International It’s time to stop asking what’s wrong with the New York Yankees and take a look at what ails the Milwaukee Braves. Once again Sunday the Yankees managed to bounce back after “going to the brink" but the floundering Braves just can’t jseem to snap out of their worst ■ slump in two years. The Yankees’ who had dropped the first two games of the fourgame series — “saved” themselves with a 6-2 and 6-4 sweep of the Chicago White Sox before a crowd of 57,057. But the Braves losing streak reached six games when the St. Louis Cardinals pounded out a 9-5 win. The Braves never lost more than five in a row in winning their second straight National League flag in 1958. Forty - three - year -old Enos Slaughter and relief ace Ryne Duren starred for the Yankees who knocked the White Sox out of first place. Old Enos connected for a pair of homers in the firpt game and Duren relieved in both games and shut out the White Sox for a total of four innings. Flood Homers Twice Curt Flood hit two homers and Bill White hammered two hits in three tries to lead a 16 - hit St. Louis assault on four Milwaukee pitchers. Juan Pizarro lasted only four innings but it was Carlton Willey who absorbed the defeat. The Cleveland Indians took over first place in the American League by a point when they beat the Boston Red Sox, 5-3, after a 6-5 defeat, Kansas City beat Washington, 6-5, after the Senators won the opener, 7-0, and the Baltimore Orioles shaded the Detroit Tigers, 2-1. The Pittsburgh Pirates edged out the first-place San Francisco Giants, 3-2, the Los Angeles Dodgers scored an 8-4 victory before dropping a 3-2, 5% - inning decision to the Philadelphia Phillies in other National League action. Cincinnati’s double-header at Chicago was postponed by rain and wet grounds. Doubles Home Three Frank Malzone hit a three-rim double with two out in the ninth inning to give the Red Sox their opening-game victory. Leo Kiely, who pitched the last inn int picked up his third win. Tito Francona drove in three runs with a double and a single in the eighth-inning nightcap as Al Cicotte scored his second triumph. Camilo Pascual won his sdVenth straight game for the Senators, striking out seven batters and yielding only one walk but the Athletics gained a split bn Hal Smith’s lOth-inning hornet in J the nightcap. Bob Allison hit two homers for the Senators and Harmon Killebrew connected for No. 32 to remain even with Babe Ruth’s record 1927 pace. Billy O'Dell and Billy Loes combined in a three-hitter that handed the Tigers their 14th loss in 17 games. Gus Triandos singled home both Baltimore runs in the first inning. Bill Virdon led off the eighth inning with a homer that lifted the Pirates' Vem Law to his 11th triumph. The Giants hid tied the score at 2-2 in the sixth on Jackie Brandt’s triple and an infield out by Hobie Landrith. Ed Bouchee’s two- run double enabled the Phillies to gain their split after homers by Gil Hodges and Duke Sniderpaced the Dodgers to their opening - game victory. The world’s well-publicized population “explosion” is due, the experts say, not so much to higher birth rates as to much lower death rates.

DRIVER Continued from page one time to avoid the narrow bridge. Damage to the bridge was estimated at SIOO. Sheriff Affolder and deputy Robert Meyer led the intensive search for Fuhrman early Saturday morning and aftrenoon with a group of volunteer searchers. Deputy Meyer scoured the accident area by air in the department's leased aircraft. Sheriff Affolder started the search shortly after receiving the accident report from Roman Sprunger, of route 5, who lives on the Piqua road. Sprunger called the sheriff about 2 a. m. after a passing motorist reported the roadway was blocked by the wrecked auto. The entire side of the westbound Fuhrman car was wrecked as a result of the accident. Police could give no reason why Fuhrman left the scene. The greatest recorded earthquake in the United States struck the village of New Madrid, Mo., on Dec. 16, 1811, and was felt over an area of two million square miles. But it caused only one death.
