Yankees Boosl League Lead By 52 Victory By MILTON RICHMAN United Press International Casey Stengel almost talked himself blue in the face but finally got that red-letter performance he was after from his first-place New York Yankees. “If I told my players once, told ’em a thousand times not to try to kill those knuckleball .pitchers.” Stengel said, "it simply can’t be done. You gotta just I meet the ball, that’s all."Casey told the Yankees again Tuesday night and lor once, they [listened. | xTX J . Coming up as a pinch-hitnT in the eighth inning, Bob Cerv re- ; membered Stengel’s advice and ! merely slapped at one of knucklebailer Bud Daley’s offerings. The half-swing did the trick. Cerv was credited with a bloop double that broke a 2 - 2 tie, touched off a three-run rally and led the Yankees to a 5-2 victory over the Athletics. -• Mantle Hits 17th Homer Mickev Mantle, who swings from his heels no matter what, ;Stengel says, caught hold of one, of Daley's third inning pitches and rammed it into the seats for his i 17th homer. Cerv's double, which came in a 'pinch - hitting role for winning pitcher Bob Turley, paced the i Yankees to their ninth victory in 'the last 12 games and enabled them to solidify their lead over the second - place Baltimore Or- * Cleveland beat Baltimore. 3-2. in 11 innings. Washington edged Chicago, 2-1, in 14 innings find Detroit defeated Boston, 10-1. Milwaukee climbed to within 2 l zhgames of the National League lead with 5-3 victory over Chicago, Pittsburgh and San Francisco battled to a 7-7 tie in a game called at the end of nine innings because of curfew. Philadelphia blanked Los Angeles, 2-0, and Cincinnati beat St. Louis, 10-4.

Pirates Opposed To Playing Twin Bill PITTSBURGH (UPI> — The PittMburxh Pirate* today waited for ■ ruling from National League President Warren Giles on whether they would have to play the second game of a doublrheader in Philadelphia July 10 Pirate pitcher Bob Friend, the . club'* player representative, said i Tuesday night that the team de- I cided against playing the contest I because it would be “too strenu- ** I OU*. Friend pointed out that the i team is slated to play a night i game July 0. The contest in 1 question was re-scheduled because of rained-out games earlier this season. "We feel that this doubleheader Is coming at an important time of the season when we are making a run for the pennant.” Friend stated. He said his teammates unanimously agreed in a vote Tuesday not to take the field for the nightcap. “Even the owners and the ball prayers had agreed that a doubleheader should not be played after a night game.” he said. "We feel the game can be played at another date.” The July 10th game originally k was scheduled as a single con-F test. But the Pirates were rained I out in Philadelphia April 24 and! June 4 and the twin bill was scheduled as one of the makeup games. , * Pirate General Manager Joe L. I Brown complained to Giles following the June 4 game which the Phils called off after a shower before noon. "I called Giles and said he was! not living up to the league's] agreement with the players. Brown said. "He told me that John Quinn, the general manager of the Phils, said there was no other suitable date for the game and I informed him that late in the year we make a trip to Philadelphia to j play one game. "There idn't a darn thing we can do about it if Giles ignores the players’ agreement in.permitting the Phils to schedule the game as a doubleheader after the night game,” Brown added. One Os Stolen Cars Is Reported Damaged One of the two automobiles stolen over the week-end and recovered later, was erroneously reported as in good condition in_ Monday S paper. The car belonging to Wilbur Marbaugh of Willshire, 0., •which was stolen from the Central Soya parking lot Sunday morning, was found Sunday about 5 p.m. The car was smashed in on one side and the grill was mashed. A full tank of gas was run out of the car and the car Was using oil badlyand dropped St. Louis into fifth. Jim OToole was the winner although he failed to get past the sieth. Ed Bailey, Alex Grammas and Curt Flood hit homers.

Senale Strikes Blow At New Major League WASHINGTON iUPD — Sen. Estes Kefauver'a bill to bring organzied baseball under the antitrust laws today appeared dead for this session of Congress. The Senate, striking a heavy blow at the proposed new Continental League, voted 73-12 Tuesday night to send the measure back tn the judiciary committee where it is expected to. remain until Congress adjourns. Sen. John A. Carroll (DGolo.), a leading supporter of the measure. threw in the towel and proposed recommiting the bill when the Senate approved an amendment by Sen. Alexander Wiley (R-Wis ». Eliminate Draft Provisions Wiley’s provision, adopted 45-41. was aimed at cutting the heart from Kefauver’s bill. Its effect would have been to eliminate player draft provisions and other sections opposed by organized baseball. William Shea, a guiding force behind the projected Continental lEeague. said in New York the I Senate action was a severe blow I but "it still doesn’t knock us out of the box." Shea blamed Sen. Kenneth Keating (R-N.Y.I for the defeat. He said Keating had posed "as our friend” but "in the final accounting. he proved which side he was <> n -” „ . a*. Keating had told the Senate the > measure as drafted was "inadequate for the task 'but a step in the right direction.” Frick Opposed Legislation In Philadelphia, baseball Commissioner Ford Frick said that he considered the bill "a piece of bad legislation" which "would have hurt the Continental League as well as the National and American Leagues.” ’ Kefauver’s bill would affect other sports besides baseball. It would grant limited exemptions under the anti-trust laws to professional football, basketball and hockey. Provisions specifically designed to make it easier to form new major leagues in baseball were stricken from the bill in committee. The unrestricted draft provisions, however, was viewed as a great boon to the fledgling Con- ■ tinental League since it would 1 presumably operate to make mi- ? nor league talent avaihble for , the expansion program. 1 Bluffton Fire Truck ’ Damaged In Wreck ’ An estimated $251 damage rei suited when Bluffton firemen were ‘ called to a fire at the Bliss Hotel 1 in Bluffton Monday afternoon. The actual fire loss, however, was $1.50. The remainder of the damage resulted in an accident in which the fire truck slamfhed into a > parked qar. Police estimated $l5O ; damage to the auto and SIOO damage to the fire truck.
