Yankees Take Sixth In Row, Increase Lead By FRED DOWN UH Sparta Writer No doubt about it—those young Yankee lions are out to devour everything In sight They have the hitting, of course, and now it looks like they also have the pitching — young, powerful pitching in depth. They’ve opened up a Ift-game lead in the American League and they’re putting on the pressure with a sixgame winning streak. The Yankees opened their first western trip of the season in Chicago Tuesday night and whipped the White Sox, 6-1, behind the combined two-hit pitching of Bill Stafford, Roland Sheldon and Marshall Bridges. The Sox didn’t make a hit until the ninth when Nelson Fox singled and eventually scored on a double by Floyd Robinson. Stafford, 23, pitched no-hit ball for five innings b efore retiring with a pulled thigh muscle, Sheldon, 22, continued the no-hitter until the hits by Fox and Robinson and then Bridges, 30, closed it out in whiplash fashion. The Yankees backed their pitching trio with 10 hits, including a homer by Elston Howard and a double by Clete Boyer, to..tag Juan Pizarro with his second defeat. Bobby Richardson ran his hitting streak to 16 games with two hits for the Yankees. Senators Win One The Detroit Tigers beat the Kansas City A’s, 3-2, in 10 innings, the Washington Senators snapped their 13-game losing streak with a 2-1 decision over the Boston Red Sox, the Los Angeles Angels defeated the Cleveland Indians, 8-8, and the Minnesota Twins downed the Baltimore Orioles, 8-3, in other AL games. In the National League, the San Francisco Giants beat the Pittsburgh Pirates, 4-2, for their seventh straight win; the St. Louis Cardinals defeated the Houston Colts, 6-4, the Cincinnati Reds whipped the New York Mets, 8-2, and the Los Angeles Dodgers topped the Chicago Cubs, 6-5, in a 16-inning marathon that lasted five hours and six minutes. Pinch-hitter Vic Wertz s ingled home two runs in the 10th inning for the Tigers, negating a homer by Kansas City’s Jerry Lumpe in the bottom of the inning. Jim Bunning struck out six and yielded seven hits in winning his third game by out-pitching Jerry Walker (3-1). Hurls Four-Hitter Pete Burnside pitched a fourhitter and struck out seven to give the Senators their first win since April 13 when the ex-Giant also won. Jim Piersall doubled in the eighth and pinch-runner Chuck Hinton scored the winning run on Jim King’s sacrifice fly. Leon Wagner drove in four runs with two homers to pace a 10-hit Los Angeles attack that brought rookie Bo Belinsky his third win without a loss. Earl Averill also homered for the Angels and Chuck Essegian, Gene Green and Al Luplow homered for Cleveland. Camilo Pascual’s nine-hit pitching and second homer of the season brought him his fourth victory for the Twins, who tagged Baltimore’s Chuck Estrada with his third defeat. Jim Gentile hit his fifth homer for the Orioles. Billy O’Dell’s nine-hit pitching, Orlando Cepeda’s seventh homer and several defensive lapses by the Pirates enabled the leagueleading Giants to continue their streak. O’Dell did not walk a batter and struck out seven in raising his rec ord to 3-0. Johnny Logan had four hits for Pittsburgh. Wins Second Game : Ed Bauta’s late relief pitching “saved” rookie Ray Washburn’s second win after the Cardinals opened up an early 5-1 lead on Houston. Dean Stone, who had won his two previous decisions, was chased in the first inning when the Cardinals scored five runs on three walks and four hits. Joey Jay pitched an eighthitter and hit a three-run homer for the Reds who s polled the Mets’ first home night game before a crowd of only 5,959. Frank Thomas hit his seventh homer and Jim Hickman his third for the Mets. The win squared Jay’s record at 3-3. The Dodgers won out in the bottom of the 16th in their 5:06 struggle with the Cubs when Doug Camilli singled home Willie Davis. The Dodgers had tied the score with two runs in the 15th inning and the game would have ended in a tie except for Camilli’s hit because no inning can start after 12:50 a.m. focal time. Ed Roebuck, who pitched the 16th inning for Los Angeles, was the winner. Yankee Draftees To Hold Practice Drills The Yankee draftees are to report for practice at the Homestead diamond at 6 p.m. Thursday, and again at 9 a.m. Saturday, weather permitting, manager Lfoyd Reynolds announced this morning.

16 Horses In Probable List For Derby Race LOUISVILLE. Ky. (UPI) - Roman Line, runaway winner of Tuesday’s Derby Trial stakes at ChurchiU Downs, today was less likely to start in the Kentucky Derby Saturday than some of the horses he so soundly trounced. Sixteen 3-year-olds still were counted among Che probable starters in the first of the Triple Crown classics, Roman Line among them. “But I don’t know whether I’ll run him. and the boss (owner T. Alie Grissom) said it was up to me. I’ll see how he acts the next few days and if I like the way he's acting I may start him. But I know there are five or six horses in there that can beat him at. a mile and a quarter,” said trainer V. R. (Tennessee) Wright. Sir Gaylord remained the solid favorite for the 88th running of the Derby. Christopher T. Chenery’s colt is the horse most rival owners and trainers fear. “He’s in perfect shape,” said trainer J. H. (Casey) Hayes, who intends to enter Cicada and Sir Gaylord in the Derby. “But we’ll only run one of them,” he insisted, indicating Cicada, the hard-hitting filly, would be held in reserve as a substitute in case anything happens to Sir Gaylord. Since Hayes also intends to enter Cicada in the Kentucky Oaks, he will have until Friday afternoon when that race is run to keep Cicada as a standby. Ridan, back in winning form after a poor season in Florida, looms as Sir Gaylord's most serious threat, with Donut King, Sunrise County, Prego, Sir Ribot, Crimson Satan, Decidedly, Admiral’s Voyage, Doc Jocoy, Good Fight, Green Hornet, Touch Bar, Royal Attack and Mister Pitt also numbered among the probable starters. Royal Attack «nd Mister Pitt started in the Derby Trial, finishing fourth and seventh, respectively, as Roman Line scampered home six lengths in front.

Drivers Near 150-Mile lap ' IMyWMWWJW- '■»» Speedway Indianapolis (upd — The long-awaited 150 mile per hour lap at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway appears almost certain to come this year. Official speeds are recorded only in the 500-mile race on May 30 or in the two weekends of qualifying time trials for the race but the drivers are clocked carefully during their practice runs. And, although the speed limit on the track was removed only two days ago, several already are pushing their cars toward the mythical goal. Two drivers turned in laps in excess of 147 mph Tuesday and several others were over 145 mph. Don Branson. Champaign, 111., had three laps in excess of 147 mph Tuesday with the best a hot 147.3 mph. Branson is driving the car in which the late Tony Bettenhausen was flirting with the 150 mph mark before he was killed while test-hopping another car the day before the start of trials last year. Parnelli Jones, Torrance, Calif., co-winner of rookie of the year, honors in 1961, also was over the I 147 mark Tuesday and Len Sut- ’ ton, Portland, Ore., had three laps at 146 mph of better. Others turning in hot laps were former winners A. J. Foyt, Houston, Tex., and Rodger Ward, IndiZnapolis, and veteran Dick Rathrnann, Roselle, 111. No drivers completed rookie tests Tuesday but several completed partial tests. They included Mike McGreevy, Hayward, Calif., Johnny Coy. Freeport, N.Y., Keith Rachwitz, Rubidova, Calif., and Bruce Jacobi, Speedway, Ind. Elmer George, Speedway, and Al (Cotton) Farmer, Fort Worth, Tex., passed refresher courses. Three more c ars arrived in “Gasoline Alley” to bring the total on hand to 49 of the 72 cars entered.

No Evidence Os Foul Play In Plane Crash UNITED NATIONS (UPI) — A five-nation investigating commission reported today it found no evidence of foul play in the plane crash that killed U.N. SecretaryGeneral Dag Hammarskjold and 15 others th Northern Rhodesia on Sept. 18. 1961. The commission found nothing in its three-month inquiry to support theories that the crash resulted from sabotage, attack from ground or air, altimeter or other mechanical failure, pilot error, or incomplete information provided to the pilot. Its report stated that none of those possible ca uses could be completely ruled out, but its conclusions strongly indicated the mystery never would be solved. A Rhodesian official i nq u ir y blamed a pilot error after eliminating other possible causes. Rhodesian tests indicated that the plane was carrying out a normal instrument approach procedure when it crashed. Hammarskjold, according to the evidence, was thrown clear of the DC6B aircraft when it plunged into a forest 9Vz miles west of Ndola airport between 10 and 15 minutes after midnight. His body was outside the area of fire resulting from the crash. A Rhodesian medical report said h e died i nstantly but two Swedish doctors believed that if Hammarskjold had been rescued at once and received medical treatment with the most modem equipment, “the survival period might have been somewhat lengthened.” This wa s impossible because the plane’s wreckage was not located until 15 hours later. The commission was critical of Rhodesian authorities for delaying rescue operations after the plane was reported missing. It said the one survivor, U.N. guard Harold M. Julien, who died Sept. 21. might have lived if rescued earlier and not exposed to the sun’s

McNeeley Career Appears At End BOSTON (UPI) _ The short, sometimes sensational, boxing career of Boston heavyweight Tom McNeeley appeared over today, ended by a wily ring veteran who hadn’t seen action in eight months. Willie Pastrano, the light heavy and heavyweight journeyman, won a one-sided unanimous decision over the 25-year-old McNeeley before 2,094 fans at Boston Arena Tuesday night. Nearly all in the crowd agreed with Pastrano and the officials that the bout was one-sided. McNeeley’s millionaire manager, Peter Fuller, joined his punching protege in disagreement, however, and postponed proposed official announcement of McNeeley’s retirement from the ring wars. “If the fight had been more decisive,” Fuller said, *’our decision would be made for us. But it wasn't decisive and that leaves us with quite a problem. We’ll have to think about it tor a few days.” “Not decisive?” questioned Pastrano. “Nobody else saw it that way. The ki d (McNeeley) is strong and has got a lot of confage. But nobody could say the I fight wasn't decisive. W hy, he never hurt me.”
