Pirates Defeat Giants, League Margin Reduced By MILTON RICHMAN United Press International The Giants are getting it from both barrels now and if the Dodgers and Braves keep firing away, there’s liable to be a pall instead of a pennant in San Francisco. Everything went wrong for the Giants Thursday. First, they blew a 5-3 decision to the Pirates and then they saw their National League lead shrink to two games when the Dodgers blanked the Phillies, 5-0, HBfl Braves beat the Cardinals, 1-4. The victories by Los Angeles and* Milwaukee kept them tied for second place and kept them coming straight st San Francisco. Roger Craig pitched the Dodgers to their third straight victory with a three-hitter that gave them an 11-1 home sweep against the'Phillies this season. Aaron Paces Braves Hank Aaron paced the Braves to their fifth straight triumph when he doubled home three runs in a four-run seventh inning rally that overcame a 4-3 Cardinal Two homers by WUlie Mays plus another by Willie Kirkland staked Giant southpaw Johnny Antonelli to a 3-1 lead over the Pirates after six innings, but he couldn’t hold it. The Pirates, rallied for four runs in the seventh which was highlighted by Roberto Clemente’s two-run single. The Cubs split a doubleheader with the Reds, taking the nightcap, 6-3, after Cincinnati won the opener 104. „ George Altman's bases-loaded double in the eighth inning produced the Cubs’ winning margin to the nightcap. Frank Robinson drove to three runs with his 35th homer and a double in the opener and rookie Cliff Cook drove in four more for the Reds. Senators Slap Sox In the American League, the last-place Senators slapped down the first-place White Sox, 8-2; the Orioles snapped the Indians’ sixgame winning streak, 6-1; the Yankees massacred the nose-div-ing Athletics, 12-1, and the Red Sox beat the Tigers, 7-3. , Washington’s victory over Chicago was a labor of love. Prior to Thursday night, the White Sox had licked the Senators 11 straight times but Camilo Pascual put a stop to that by striking out 10 and pitching a four-hitter. Despite the loss, the White Sox retained their 4% game’ lead and reduced their pennant - winning “magic number” to 11 when the second-place ndiaifc lost to the Orioles. Knucklebailer Hoyt Wilhelm limited the Tribe to three hits and fanned 10 in bringing his season record to 14-11. Mickey Mantle and Ralph Terry had themselves a field day in the Yankees’ romp over the Athletics, who lost their 13th to a row. Mantie led a 20-hit attvack with five hits, including his 28th homer, while Terry had a onehitter until the ninth and then wound up with a four-hitter. Gene Stephens and Pete Runnels drove to three runs apiece to Boston's win over. Detroit. CM WAXING 111 95 SPECIAL Conrad’s *66’ Service Onrl A Jackson Ph. 3-2601

Judge Asks Writ Dissolved In IHSAA Case INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — The Indiana High School Athletic Association was pictured Thursday as an organization seeking to deny individual rights and privileges guaranteed by the, Constitution and Indiana laws. The charge was made by Special Judge Lester Nixon of Lawrence Circuit Court in the latest round of a much-publicized high school athletic eligibility case. Nixon filed a brief with the Indiana Supreme Court asking that it dissolve a temporary writ barring him from further action in a case involving two Seymour basketball players. The legal battle between the IHSAA and Billy Joe and Frank Stevenson began last year when the IHSAA ruled that the lanky Negro youths were forever ineligible to play basketball for Seymour High Schoo. The IHSAA made the ruling on the grounds that “undue influence” was used to move the Stevenson family from Joppa, 111., to Seymour. Attorneys for the Stevensons took the case to Jackson Circuit Court and it later was moved to Lawrence Circuit Court on a change of venue. After months of legal maneuvering, attorneys for the IHSAA on Aug. 13 obtained a temporary restraining order from the Supreme Court ordering Nixon to refrain from further action in the case and to show cause why the temporary order should not be made permanent. In his reply Thursday, Nixon said a school corporation “cannot delegate, cede away, contract away or disable itself from performing its public duties.” “Shields High School of Seymour, Indiana, cannot contract or delegate to others (the IHSAA) the right and duty to make rules and regulations, restrictions and limitations as to who of its pupils may or may not engage in any physical training or athletic activities carried on by that school," Nixon said in his blistering attack against the IHSAA. The General Assembly granted the IHSAA “no power, authority or right” to govern the activities of any school, he said. Nixon also took issue with the contention of attorneys for the IHSAA that the organization is voluntary and hence does not come under the jurisdiction of the courts.

Decisions of a voluntary association could not Be binding on the Stevenson boys, he said. ‘He said 14-year-old Frank is compelled to attend Seymour’s only high school because of his age. Sixteen-year-old BiUy Joe “has a right” to attend the school, Nixon said. . • “The rights of these plaintiffs (the Stevensons) do not flow from the IHSAA, or its constitution, bylaws, rules or regulations,” he said. “Their rights stem from the Constitution and statutes of Indiana to attend Shields High School with all its rights, privileges and benefits.” Nixon also stressed the fact that all 750 member schools of the IHSAA, as individuals, are involved in the court case, a contention e denied by IHSAA attorneys- ~ X V The Indiana Supreme Court has ruled in a previous case that the naming of the association “in fact, means its members,” he saidAttorneys for the IHSAA said previously that if the high court issues a permanent writ against Nixon, tile organization will have won the battle. If the high court denids a permanent writ and dissolves the temporary writ, the case would be returned to Nixon for final disposition. Both sides have indicated a willingness to appeal any decision all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court if necessary.

Roy Emerson Hopes To Upset Olmedo FOREST HILLS (UPI) — Roy Emerson, the “forgotten Australian,” is gunning for an upset today against Wimbledon champion Alex Olmedo of Peru in the quar-ter-finals of the U.S. singles ten nis championship. Olmedo, big Barry Mac Kay of Dayton, Ohio, Neale Fraser and Rod Laver of Australia, are favored to hammer their way into the semi-finals but if there’s any monkey-wrench tossing Emerson figures he’s the man to do it “It all depends on how Olmedo plays,” said the 22-year-old Emerson, who ranks second to Fraser in his country but was passed over in favor of third-ranked Laver in Davis Cup singles play. “Unless Olmedo has one of those inspired days, I think I can beat him. Anyway, I’m keen for the try.” The peculiar Peruvian, however, is building up to the mental peak that carried him to the heights in 1958 Davis Cup competition, in the Australian championships and again at Wimbledon. Alex is a big favorite to face Fraser in Sunday’s final. Mac Kay, America's chief hope among the three U.S. survivors, meets Bernard (Tut) Bartzen of San Angelo, Tex., in another quarter-final and one Yank automatically will be eliminated. Laver plays the third American, Ron Holmberg of Brooklyn. Fraser, a slashing lefty who licked both Olmedo and Mac Kay in the Davis Cup challenge round and won the doubles with Emerson, plays Pan-American champ Luis Ayala of Chile in the other quarterfinal.

Many Question Marks On LU. Football Team BLOOMINGTON, Ind. (UPD — Indiana’s 1959 football team is a series of if's, Coach Phil Dickens said today, but he figures it should be better than last year's eleven despite its final record. “It’s a lot of ‘if somebody comes through here, or if somebody comes through there,’ ” he said, “we’ll know better what we’ll do.” A year ago, he said, after spring practice he expected his team to win one game. It won five, tied one and lost three. This year he expected to win “two games, maybe three.” “I don't know which ones,” he added, “but maybe we can luck out somewhere. We’re in about the same boat we were last year, and lightning doesn't steike twice in the same place, or miracles happen two years in a row.” Has Young Squad Two thirds of his squad are sophomores, so inexperience will be a problem, but most of their rookies who will see action will be in the backfield and will add speed, always a problem previously. In the line he'll have lettermen most of the way, except for an all sophomore cast at center, but only one interior lineman, tackle Bob Corrigan, was a starter last year. At ends both Ted Aucreman and Earl Faison are back. Dickens was pleased with his blocking backs, Wil Scott, Eddel Fritz and Tom Burgess, rating them good blockers with less than average speed, and his fullbacks, Vic Jones, and sophomores Don Cromer and Frank Andersen. “I feel our fullbacks are a little faster, so we can move tnem to left halfback when we switch to the T,” he said. “Only one of them was fast last year, Jones.” Adds Winged T This change enabled Dickens to add the winged T to his single wing attack, and he anticipated running about 25 per cent of his plays from that formation. At- wingback Randy Williams and Richie Bradford, both lettermen, were running 1-2, and at tailback it was Ted Smith with sophomores John Henry Jackson and Willie Hunter behind him. He planned to platoon Smith, as much as of the sophomores into action on defense. “I sure hope the ball bounces right,” he said. “We're going to need it more than we did last year because there won't be any element of surprise left for us." tewsMKtwwi IWW

Bears And Giants. To Tangle Tonight United Press International The New York Giants, one of the National Football League's most defensive-minded teams, run into the high-scoring Chicago Bears tonight in a nationally-tele-vised exhibition game. The Bears scored 106 points in their last two pre-season games while the Giants have not permitted a touchdown in their last two exhibitions. Tonight's contest will be televised by CBS, starting at 11:15 p.m. e.d.t. Coach Red Hickey of San Francisco Thursday drilled his team in defensive tactics for Saturday night’s game against the Rams at Los Angeles. The Forty-Niner coach concentrated particularly on stopping the Rams’ Jon Arnett, who specializes in punt returns. The Philadelphia Eagles acquired veteran guard Stan Campbell from the Detroit Lions in exchange for a 1960 draft choice. Campbell, a 230-pounder from lowa State, played on the Detroit championship teams of 1952 and 1957. High School Football East Chicago Roosevelt 33, Hammond Tech 6.
