White Sox Stay Alive On 1-0 Victory Over Dodgers; Sixth Game Thursday

CHICAGO (UPD—Chicago’s “gogo” White Sox, back cm their home grounds, vowed today that they’d make their economy-type baseball pay off again to win the World Series in which they trail the Los Angeles Dodgers three games to two. “We’ll win it now,” predicted White Sox Manager Al Lopez. He named Early Wynn as his starting pitcher when the series resumes in brick-walled Comiskey Park on Thursday. He’ll be opposed by Johnny Podres, the soreback left-hander who won the second game of the series in Chicago last Friday. “We’re back in business when we make one run stand up,” Lopez chuckled. “That’s how we won the American League pennant. That’s how we’ll win the series.” Wear Black Stockings But he admitted that die White Sox, who went back to their black stockings Tuesday to change their luck, weren’t out of baseball’s woods. “We have to get even first,” he observed. He didn’t know whether his club would wear the white stockings they started the series with, or the old blackones they switched to Tuesday when they kept their hopes alive with a 1-0 triumph before the largest throng in World Series history— 92,706 in Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. The White Sox were desperate Tuesday. They made a fourth-inn-ing run — scored cm a doubleplay — hold up and withstood a Dodger eighth-inning threat which will go down in series history as the most dramatic of all Alston Still Confident Manager Walter Alston of the Dodgers, still confident but lamenting that “we have to go all the way back to Chicago to wrap it up,” gave Lopez credit for “putting the right man in the right spot at the right time.” Both clubs flew back here after that historic game in the vast Coliseum Tuesday. Their backs to the wall, the Sox threatened Sandy Koufax, the Dodgers’ erratic, fire - throwing southpaw, in the third — and this time they were frustrated because thew base stealing shortstop tried to take an extra base. , t In the fourth, however, they cashed in on an opportunity—the kind that has been hitting pay dirt for them all year. Battling Nellie Fox led off the inning with a single and raced to third as Jim Landis followed with a single. As Sherman Lollar hit into a double play, Fox scored

with the run that stood up all the way. Dodgers Threaten The White Sox didn’t mount any threats after that, but the Dodgers did and in the battle of managerial wits that followed, Lopez won out over Alson, thanks to big Disk Donovan. That was in the story-book eighth. It looked bad for the White Sox when Landis lost Wally Moon’s fly ball to center in the sun and it fell in front of him for a single. Winning pitcher Bob Shaw retired Norm Larker on a fly ball, but Gil Hodges rifled a single to center, sending Moon to third. On the play, trying to get Moon at third, Hodges went cm into second. Now the rival mapagers started making moves, one counter to the other. Alston sent up left handed battler Ron Fairly to hit for right hander Don Demeter. Lopez took out Shaw and put in southpaw Billy Pierce. So Alston withdrew Fairly and sent up right-handed hitting Rip Repulski to the plate. Furillo Pops Up Lopez ordered Pierce to walk Republski intentionally, filling the losses. So Alston called on Carl Furillo, his pinch hitter de luxe in the pennant playoff against the Braves and in the series. So Lopez took out Pierce and put in Donovan. There were pinch runners, pinch hitters and a lot of series records were tied or broken in the inning, but it mattered not to the White Sox for Donovan did the job. He retired Furillo on a pop fly and Don Zimmer on a fly ball. As it turned out this time, Lopez made the right moves. He made one an inning earlier when with two men on base, he put Jim Rivera in right field, shifted Al Smith, who had been playing there, to left, with Jim McAnaney going to the bench. All Rivera did was to haul down Charlie Neal’s long drive to deep right center to cut off two Dodger runs. IHSAA distribution Mode To Schools Hugh J. Andrews, Decaur high school principal, reports receipt of $125 as a regular distribution by the Indiana high school athletic association to high school members of the association.

Cloudy And Cool Series Forecast CHICAGO (UPD — Cloudy skies and temperatures in the 60s were forecast for Thursday's sixth game of the World Series between the Chicago White Sox and the Los Angeles Dodgers at Comiskey Park. Weather officials said the cloudy and cool outlook should not interfere with the game and that rain “was not expected.” | Today's Sport Parade | (Reg. U. (8. Pat Off.) By OSCAR FRALEY United Press International CHICAGO (UPD — The Chicago White Sox limped home today just glad to be alive after tangling with “the thing.*’ They were just barely alive, because they hpve to sweep the next two games to win the World Series from the Los Apgeles Dodgers. But even though they were down, three games to two, they were happy to escape that short left field fence in the Los Angeles Coliseum and return to the “barn." “Now,” asserted shortstop Luis Aparicio, “we go back to a good ball park.” Gave Sox Jitters “The Thing,” and the ball park laid out in the oval clutch of the Coliseum, gave them the jitters. This despite the fact that they rattled six hits off the wire barrier a mere 251 feet from home plate while the best the Dodgers could do was lay three balls up against its mesh face. But to all of the White Sox, accustomed to the regulation confines ot ancient but spacious Comiskey Park, that screen seemingly had crouched at their shoulders for three games just as if it was to pounce. “You try not to be conscious of it,” said pitcher Bob Shaw, whose fifth game triumph was saved in a melodramatic eighth inning Tuesday by brawny Dick Donovan. “But as soon as you get into trouble, you think about it." Live With It The Dodgers haye learned to live with it, and must until their new Chavez Ravine stadium is completed late next summer. Meanwhile, they will grow calloused to winning — or losing — games on pop fly home runs which make the old “Chinese” homer of Polo Grounds’ fame look stricty occidental. Asked what he thought of this substitute for a baseball diamond, congenial and kindly Al Lopez replied: “Let’s just call it a stadium and let it go at that. But I’ll tell you one thing we’re mighty glad to be geting out of here.”

Browns, Giants Battle Sunday In Pro Feature By EARL WRIGHT United Press International The Browns, eager for their first 1959 crack at the only team ever to deprive them of a slice of National Football League title game money, are three-point favorites to defeat the New York Giants Sunday at Cleveland. The San Francisco Forty-Niners and Packers, only NFL teams with perfect records after the first two weeks of play, dash at Green Bay. Coach Vince Lombardi’s Packers are four-point favorites. In Sunday’s other pairings, the Baltimore Colts are 6% point choices to tame the Lions at Detroit; the Bears are favored over the Los Angeles Rams by seven at Chicago; the Eagles are favored over the Pittsburgh Steelers by two at Philadelphia, and the Chicago Cardinals-Redskins game at Washington is rated a tossup. All NFL coaches claim there is no such thing as a favorite or an underdog in their games. Betters who went for the favorites last weekend may be inclined to agree. Os the six favorites, only the Packers were able to win. The Browns, underdogs last Sunday for one of the few times in their 14-year history when they clobbered the Cardinals, 34-7, now are favored over a New York team that whipped them three times last season. Alex Webster, New York’s offensive right halfback, and Jim Patton, the team’s All-League defense back, did not play at Philadelpha but figure to play against the Browns. Cleveland is in good shape.-Mike McCormack, Cleveland's 250pound right offensive tackle, is back in action after missing most of the training season because of a knee injury. He played the whole game on offense at Chicago last Sunday.
