White Sox Near Flag, Giants Boost Margin By FRED DOWN United Press International The White Sox have a new magic number and the Giants an old magic name today as the major league pennant races go into their final two weeks. The White Sox virtually clinched the American League pennant race when they zoomed into a 5V4 game lead Sunday while the Giants inched closer to the National League flag by opening a twogame bulge on two other contenders. For the White Sox, the “magic number” is six—meaning that any combination of Chicago victories and Cleveland losses which total six clinches the Sox’ first flag in 40 years. And the old “magic name” for the Giants is Dusty Rhodes — pinchhitter par excellence of the 1954 world champions who drove in the only run in San Francisco’s 1-0 triumph over the Philadelphia j Phillies. Hits Rare Homer Billy Goodman’s first homer in two years provided the margin of the White Sox’ 3-1 win over the Boston Red Sox and the secondplace Cleveland Indians saw their hopes practically disappear when they suffered 2-1 and 1-0 losses to the New York Yankees. The Giants picked up ground on both their rivals when the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the Los Angeles Dodgers, 4-3, and the Cincinnati Reds downed the Milwaukee Braves, 3-2. Goddman's homer, following a walk to Jim Landis, came in the fourth inning and gave the White Sox a 3-0 lead. Jack Sanford pitched five-hit ball for 8 2-3 innings and Mike McCormick retired the last Philadelphia batter for the Giants. The Giants scored the game’s only run in the second inning when they filled the bases with one out. Then Rhodes, batting for Danny O’Connell, delivered a sacrifice fly. Mantle Scalps Tribe Mickey Mantle’s two-run 11th inning homer gave the Yankees a come-from-behind win in the opener with Cleveland and then Duke Maas pitched a six-hitter for his 13th triumph. The Pirates sank the Dodgers on solo homers by Roman Mejias, Bob Skinner, Dick Stuart and Hank Foiles plus a sturdy nine-hit pitching job by Ron Kline. Eddie Kasko’s fourth single of the game drove in Eddie Robinson with the run that enabled the Reds to ruin Warren Spahn’s bid for his 20th victory of the year and record-tying 266th of his career. The Kansas City Athletics defeated the Baltimore Orioles, 9-5 in 10 innings and 4-1, and the Washington Senators beat the Detroit Tigers, 5-1, in other American League games while the Chicago Cubs whipped the St. Louis Cardinals, 8-0, in the other National League game.

Beats Olmedo To Win Title FOREST HILLS, N.Y. (UPD— Australian Neale Fraser, the new U.S. amateur tennis champion, and runner-up Alex Olmedo of Peru both had a nopeful if slightly jaundiced eye on the professional net game today. Fraser moved into the center of the play-for-pay picture Sunday when he upset Olmedo's SIOO,OOO pro applecart by beating the tawny Peruvian for the U.S. crown, 6-3, 5-7, 6-2, 6-4. The only difficulty was that Olmedo, the Wimbledon champion, apparently had blown his big offer by losing the U.S. title and nobody has ever made Fraser an offer. Complicating the whole situation was the fact that pro net czar Jack Kramer had his entourage flailing for francs in Paris so that he wasn't on hand to tell either the victorious Fraser or th disappointed Olmedo — who had the excuse of a sore shoulder in the finals — just how matters stood. But both men were willing. Fraser, the fourth straight Australian to wear the U.S. crown felt, quite naturally, that Olmedo’s excuse of a sore shoulder had Title to do with the outcome on a day in which Brazil's Maria Bueno took the women’s crown with a 6-1. 6-4 win over England’s Christine Truman. Certainly Fraser displayed the same “big game” he used defeating Olmedo in the key match of the recent Davis Cup challenge round as he walloped the son of
