WE HAVE OFTEN STATE!' in The C rner" that anything <un happen in ba«"ba!l and usually dees Sunday. July 17. may not long be remember’d by mnir’ peoph, but the fans in .meet al major league ball parks aie apt to long n nunbrr the antics and odditit s that happened Sunday. This day of mostly di-üb’e head-rs gav- the fans more than two games for their money, prodiu mg aimed a season's full of "wi .dies' with everything from a fist fight to a terrfu fan demonstration occuring. THE FIST FIGHT CAME IN Clevdaifd in Um double headei between the Indians and the Washington Senators, formerly leal ' cousin" to the Indians who br »k e off all family ties Sunday, (’leveland has had a whammy lon the S nators especially when Jim "Mudcat" Grant i s pitching. iHe had a 14-0 lifetime record against the Senators going into Sunday’s action, but the Nats finally hn ke loose and beat him 3-2 in the first game m which the fight occured. Vic Power and Earl Battcy were the puguJists in this battle with both •reportedly landing several good punches after some hot action. They both simmered down beneath a cool shower as th a referee , umpire Charley Berry, counted them out of the game. -♦Power. a fierce competitor who has had differences of opinion on several occasions, slid hard, into Battey with spikes high, and Earl took it as intentional and the fists began to fly. IN DETROIT, THE TIGERS were <n their way to sweeping a double header from the Yank■ers. leading 2-0 in the Sth inning of the second game following a decisive 12-2 win in the opener, when Bill Skowron’s slashing dtive down the right field line was ruled fair for a home run, tying the score at 2-2. Rightfield’r Rocky Golavito and several thousand fans near the play thought the hall was foul and disagreed with umpire Jo e Paparella and after th® ump failed to change his decision, the fans turned on a shower of debris similar to the very famous one in the 1934 world series when the St. Louis Cardinals were in t Avn. It took some time to clear The field and resume P^y. hut the Tigers came bank to win 3-2 with a run in the bottem of the

eighth IN PITTSBURGH BIG DON New<'omb hard throwing righthandci for the Cincinnati Reds, wis banished from the second game of the double header befoi 1 even throwing a pitch wh- n he took the mound in the bottom of the first inning and was questioned about his undershirt by th? umpires on request of the Pirates who had lost the first game of the double header and were anxious to win the secon I. It seems that big Newc's 1 ‘ft shirt sleeve was half length and tight fitting as they usually are. but the right one. on his pitching ann. was long and loose, rather floppy and at least to the Pirates, probably distracting. He was ordered to change the shirt by the umps and he did. but when returning to the mound, it priceless comment evidently Was made to plate umpire Dusty Boggess, who promptly banished the pitcher from the contest. Cal McLish hurriedly warmed up and was greeted on the first pitch by a home run by Ball Virdon and the Pirates led the rest of the way. THUS SITUATION ALMOST made us scratch our heads and wonder what about the rule in the major leagues that a pitchei must pitch to at least one batter. Os course, Newcomb was ordered from the mound and game, but nevertheless, he did net face that one man it says is necessaiy. THE CLEVELAND CLOWN, Jimmy Biersail. was on the rampage again Sunday as he put on quite a show in the Cleveland bullpen ’during th” first game. Bis actions certainly have gone beyond those needed by major league standards as they are almost as ridiculous as that monster atop the Centerfield stands in Chicago that the White Sox fans enjoy so much. It appearss that Piersall certainly needs rest, attention or both. He has been ejected 6 times already this season and is causing quite a difference of opinions between manager Jo© Gordon and general manager Frank Lane, as to how he should be handled. Quoting from the story of Piersall's troubles earlier in his career, "Fear Strikes Out " it is pi^ty obvious by new that evidently what was thought to bs a third strike was acually a foul tip that the catcher couldn’t hold. This is a case to be pittied. but still, his antics are almost completely uncalled for. ACTION ALSO FOUND ONE big move being made, big W 11. • McCovey, the National League's Rookie of the Year last yea;;, was -sent back to th? minor s aftei Sunday’s game with the Dodgers ‘‘Stretch" just hasn’t been playing good baseball this year and in the words 4»f manager Tom Sheahan, "Willie can’t hit. run or fiald Uus year."

AS FAR AS THE STANDings g’>, there hasn’t been tco st rious of changes The Yankees !U e still slumping a little, but still lead on this Tuesday by 2 games over the Sox. That two games represents 4 games in the loss column and they still have a three-loss advantage over the Indians. Baltimore in fourth place, has 41 losses, one more than fifth place Detroit Washington, in sixth, is still only 8 losses behind so the American League remains pretty tight and despite what some say about a three team race, a good hot streak could put any of the top six right up in the running THE NATIONAL LEAGUE also has tightened up some as the Milwaukee Braves are presently only 2> 2 games out of first and have only one more loss than the Pirates Milwaukee has been rolling on the big bats of Dol Crandall and Eddie Mathews as they have d divert'd the big plows in several of their latest victories. Th’ y have a considerably heavy schedule ahead thanks to a lot of postponments early in the season. San Francisco has slipped into fifth and under their presem pace will have trouble staying above sixth placet It looks lik” their canning Bdl Rigney, which at the time we said was an in justice, may be about the won’, move they hav e made in some time. MOVIE REVIEWS From THE RIALTO Die king-sized comedy sensation of the year, Mervyn LeRoy’s Cinemascope Deluxe r dor production “Wake Me When Its Over ”, a Twentieth CenturyFox relense starring Ernie Kovacs, Dick Shawn, Margo M we, Jack Warden and Nobu McCarthy opens Sunday a: the Rialtc Theatre. Uh no fun making fen i'or other people, for the actual creation of a comedy is extremely hard work as Mervyn Le'Fy has often pointed out. "An onion can make people cry." add the veteran producer-director, hut there isn't any vegetable that can make them laugh. There may not be a vegetable that will semi people nto gales cf laughter but “Wake Me. When It's Over’’ will more than do the job. Leßoy, Wnas© pao. dud ions of "Mister Roberts" and "No Time For Serg ants" are still listed as two of Holly, wood's funniest piotines has put into Wake Me When It's Over’’ just the right combination of incongruity, znmess and pathos that should pv it high on the all-time "lau^h list." Bask'd on Howard ,S '.ger's hilarious bast-seller b the same name. "Wake Me When It's

Over" tells the madcap tale of Gus Bruliaker (Dick ShaWn) a Manhatt m barkeep and World War II vet who through a mix up in Air Force serial numbers is n- d’ ifted and shipped to a radar base on Shima, a tiny speck if an island in the Pacific. On arrival he learns imni the base me^iical < 1 J.cer (Jack Warden) Hunt the CO is Charles Stark (Emir Kovacsi, an oln s dek‘ k of Gus' from WW II Gus meets Umc (Nobu McCarthy) a native of th? island and she tells him cf the hot springs that are on the island. Immediately on idea light bulb goes or, in Gus' mind and he presents his plan to Kovacs and the rest of the men at the outpost. The plan is presented and though Kovacs dissents at first the scheme finally gets tire goahead And go ahead it does The Gl’s of the island form a < orporation and erect the wackiest resort hotel ever conceived, a swanky hostelry made of cast off Air - Force oddments that would never make a feature spread in "Holiday , but-served the m?n of Shima as the craziest money maker ever dreamed up by the ingenious men of our armed ibrees.
