Indians Slice Chicago Lead To One Game By MILTON RICHMAN Unitd Press International Cleveland is coming on like gangbusters, and the guy chiefly responsible is fence-buster Rocky Colavito. The rip-roaring Indians, now only a game out of first place, have won eight in a row and they can credit their last two victories to Colavito’s personal account. Rocky, whose two homers beat the Yankees Tuesday, smashed his 38th home run of the season Wednesday night to break a 4-4 tie and defeat the fading world champions, 5-4. Colavito came through with the clincher Wednesday night in the bottom of the eighth inning off Ryne Duren after the Yanks had tied the score in the top of the frame on Elston Howard’s tworun double. The league-leading White Sox dropped a 7-6 decision to the Red Sox and with Colavito, a notoriously strong September hitter ripping the ball the way he is, they could be in for trouble. Leads AL in Homers Right now, Colavito leads the American League in homers and is tied with Washington’s Harmon Killebrew for the most runs batted in. Each has driven in 95. Baltimore reclaimed third place with a 6-3 triumph over Kansas City while Detroit moved into a tie for fourth by defeating Washington, 3-2. In the National League, Pittsburgh topped San Francisco, 5-4, in 10 innings; St. Louis beat Milwaukee, 5-2, and Chicago defeated Cincinnati, 9-5. Los Angeles and Philadelphia were not scheduled. Two errors by the usually smooth-fielding White Sox contributed toward their defeat at the hands of the Red Sox. Al Smith dropped Vic Wertz’ fly ball during a four-run Boston rally in the seventh and the Red Sox added two more unearned runs in the eighth with the aid of Turk Lown’ error. Home runs by Bob Nieman, Brooks Robinson and Willie Tasby carried the Orioles to their victory over the Athletics. Jerry Walker registered his ninth victory with a helping hand from Milt Pappas in the eighth. Bud Daley not only lost his ninthgame but was fined $56 for hittipg Nieman on the elbow with a pitch in the filth inning. • Burning Fans 11 Jim Bunning, the American League strikeout leader, fanned 11 Washington batters but still needed the aid of three Detroit relievers to nail down his 13th triumph. Bunning had a one-hit-ter until the' eighth. Hie Giants’ loss to the Pirates was more a blow to their morale than to their NL lead. Since the second-place Dodgers were idle, the Giants’ lead was only shaved to three games but what really hurt was the fact that Jack Sanford had Pittsburgh beat 4-0 on two hits until the ninth. Larry Jackson pitched a sevenhitter against the Braves and struck out seven in winning his 11th for the Cardinals. Hie Cards hopped on Carlton Wiley for two runs in the first inning and scored what proved to be the deciding run in the fifth on Joe singe and 'Ken Boyer’s double.

Rodriguez Winner Over Rudell Stitch LOUISVILLE, Ky. (UPD— Hawk-beaked Luis Rodriguez, unbeaten welterweight from Cuba, was ready today to take on hardhitting Rudell Stitch again after upsetting the Louisville sausagestuffer in a brisk split-decision Wednesday night. Rodriguez, who went into the nationally televised bout a 2-1 underdog, baffled Stitch with a right-hand lead and crisp jab that piled up points while the unusually sluggish Stitch was missing most of his roundhouse rights. Nursing a swollen knuckle on his right hand, injured in the fourth round, Rodriguez (with trainer Ricardo Riesgo interpreting) said, “I can fight better than that. I was two pounds overweight.” Rodriguez who now has 22 victories and one “no contest” on his record in 23 fights, weighed 147 to Stitch’s 145. The upset may have hurt Stitch’s hopes for a title bout with welterweight king Dori Jordan. | Today's Sport Parade | Reg. U.S. Pat. - Off.) By OSCAR FRALEY United Press International NEW YORK (UPD—This could be the season when Johnny Antonetyi squares matters once and for all with Milwaukee and San Francisco. His “beef” against the Braves goes all the way back to 1948 and, while Johnny pretends indifference, he would be less than human if he didn’t get some satisfaction out of beating his favored one-time teammates out of a pennant. Such a feat also would erase a few harsh memories in Sn Francisco. And the big southpaw, with. 18 victories already accounted for, could accomplish both objectives with a fat 20-plus game season. Johnny’ was «an 18-year-old “pheenom’ when he was signed in 1948 right out of high school and, by contractural agreement, could not be farmed out to the minors. It rankled less-rewarded players among the Braves’ veterans. He was unwelcome. Warms Bench The Braves won the pennant with young Johnny sitting ignored in the bullpen. The next two years he pitched only briefly and then he went into service for two years. When he rejoined the Bravdfe in 1953 as they shifted jfapcun Boston to Milwaukee, Johnny had a 12-12 year which was no real criterion of his ability. “They were a rough six years,” says the six-foot, two-inch left hander. “The never let me forget it. It plagued my days and haunted my nights.” Thus it was that he was “glad to be traded’’ when he was sent to the then New York Giants in 1954. Johnny that next season hurled the Giants to the pennant with a record of 21 wins, going on to win one game in the Giants’ sweep of the World Series against Cleveland. Got Off On Wrong Foot ' % But this is his first real chance to snatch the flag right away from the team which didn’t want him — and he can square a couple of side issues with the pen-nant-hungry citizens of San Francisco at the same time. Last year, when the Giants moved from New York to San Francisco, Johnny got off on the wrong foot as he had a feud with the West Coast sportswriters. There were unpleasant words back and forth followed by a generous apology on Johnny’s part. But civic pride was bruised and there were irritated suggestions from some quarters that he be traded. That was in late July. But now, with 18 victories under his belt, damaged local pride has been healed by civic jubilation. |B-?7 $ S’ M SHif O “Sure, when he has a perfect dJv at bat, he’s your son . . .

Pan American Games Open In Chicago Today CHICAGO (UPD — The third Pan American Games, beset by internal bickering which is expected to vanish once actual athletic competition begins, opens today. Nearly 2,200 athletes from 24 North and South American countries will parade into Soldier Field and all of die complaints over lack of training facilities, inadequate diets, poor transportation and other petty annoyances will be forgotten. They will march into the jammed 100,000 seat stadium to hear a welcoming address by President Eisenhower’s brother, a 24-gun salute, and watch 5,000 doves of peace loosened into the heavens. To Fire Gun Salute Dr. Milton Eisenhower will deliver. the major speech, bidding the competing nations welcome and wishing them the best of luck in the athletic competition to begin on Friday. There will be a gun salute to each of the 24 competing nations —the United States is expected to win most of the athletic laurels—and then the Most Rev. Albert G. Meyer, Roman Caholic Archbishop of Chicago, will deliver an invocation with U. S. athletes of past Olympic games forming an honor channel for the parade of the competitors and team officials. The U. S. athletes will wear their traditional red, white and blue uniforms. Scout Carries Torch A 16-year-old Explorer Scout, Richard Rodriguez of Chicago, will provide an impressive moment. Aft the last runner of thousands of Boy Scouts who have carried the Pan American torch from the site of the last games in 1955 in Mexico City, he will run into the stadium after Eisenhower’s address and a welcoming speech by Chicago Mayor Richard Daley to Ignite the friendship flame with an electronic facility installed in his baton. Then the 5,000 doves of peace will be released, as the captains of the competing teams advance in front of the official box, bearing their national flag as a veteran U. S. competitor administers the Pan American oath.
