WEDNESDAY, JULY 18, 1951 White Sox reep Up On osfon Reds | By Associated Press 1 The White Sox fold? Don't l(‘ll| at to Casey Stengel and his New ork Yankees. They know better after what hap- ened to them last night. They had hicago whipped only to see Paul ichards’ amazing Sox snatch the lictory right out of their mitts witt three-run blast in the eighth inn- g and the decider in the tenth. ' Chicago won, 4-3, after trailing 0 in the eighth. The triumph gave e Sox sole possession of second ace in the American League, only 0 percentage points behind the ce-setting Boston Red Sox. Cleveland climbed into a virtual ird place tie with New York, de- pating the Red Sox, 8-6, as Bob leller became the first pitcher to ck up 13 triumphs. Only a game d a half separate the four clubs. The White Sox’ uphill victory em- asized Richards’ pre-game state- ent that his club will not crack up. “We don’t intend to fold” h= id. “The Yankees, Red Sox and d’ans will fold before we do. We'll on tep at the end.” The outlook was gloomy for Chi- go as the Sox faced Allie (no-hit) eynolds in the eighth training be- use of Hank Bauer’s two-run omer in the seventh. But, as on so many previous oc- sions, the never-say-die White x refused to concede. A walk, suc- essive singles by Nellie Fox, Eddie ewart and Minnie Minoso — and | e score was tied at 2-2. Eddie | obinson grounded out and Stewart ossed the plate with the lead run. The Yankees knotted the count at 3 in the ninth on a pair of walks, double by Pinch Hitter Bobby rown and Johnny Hopp's infield t. A double play stopped the White x in their half of the ninth. In e 10th, however, with Stubby Over- ire on the hill, Stewart l.ll)llbl(‘(‘.‘ fter Minoso was given an inten- jonal pass, Robinson came through ith a single to center, bringing ewart home with the winning run.

McKinley, North Amer- ica’s highest mountain, is now “vir- tually a Boston Post road,” says Bradford Washburn, leader of the latest expedition to conquer the 20,- 257-foot peak. ‘Washburn, director of the Bos- ton museum, said yesterday members of the mountain-climbing party left markers every 100 feet to guide fu- ture climbers. All eight members of the party reached the summit, Washburn said. Washburn, James Gale of An- chorage and Capt. William Hackett, Denver, blazed a trail over a new western route early last week. Drs. John Ambler and Henry Butchell, of Denver; Barry Bishop, 19-year-old University of Cincinnati student; T. M. Griffiths, glacial geologist from Denver University, and Jerry Moore, 23, Dartmouth Col- lege student, followed Friday ard Saturday. Washburn explained the expedi- tion was divided into sections so it could use three-man igloos instead of tents above 13,000 feet. Washburn, Gale and Hackett built the igloos as they climbed, Washburn said Dr. Ambler and Bishop descended the peak yester- day and Ambler left immediately for the States> Dr. Butchtel, Grif- fith and Moore were at the 10,000~ foot level awaiting removal by plane. nce for his sixth win. | Chicago 52 34 .605 | Il ] Pacific Coast Leaders Clash In Seaftle By Associated Press If Seattle or Hollywood is a real championship ball club, this week is the time to prove it. The Pacific Coast League pennant race seeming- ly is narrowing to these two teams and they collide in a five-game seric starting tomorrow in Seattle. Seattle has been well-nigh invinc- ible on its home field but Roger. Hornsby’s men slowed down appre- ciably against San Francisco and dropped three in a row before com- ing back to win from the Seals last night, 2 to 1. Hollywood, now at the peak of its game, slammed Portland again last night, 10 to 1, to remain two games behind pace-setting Seattle. It was the Stars’ fifth straight win over Portland. Oakland and San Diego wound up a marathon 11-game series that be- gan in San Diego and ended last night in Oakland as the Oaks notched an 11 to 5 victory. Acorns’ third baseman, Johnny Jor- gensen, slammed two homers and Harvey Storey hit one for the Padres. Eleven Oak batters paraded to the plate in the second inning to push over geven runs. Los Angeles and Sacramento were idle. Jim Rivera and Walt Judnich, Scattle outfic!ders, combined for both runs in the Rainier vietory. Rivera was on the base both timos when Judnich drove him home. Murv Grissom held the Seals to six hits and became the first PCL her to register 15 victories. Veteran Jack Salveson pitched his 13th win for Hollywood.

This is Pittsburgh’s first heavy- weight title scrap. and the Forbes Field card has caught on big in the smokey city. The 30-year-old Cin- cinnati Negro considers this his second hometown and his appear- ance here in defense of his crown is a fullfillment of an old promise. Lean Ezzard, in the sharpest con- dition of his life, is a 4 to 1 favor- ite, in a very light betting market, to whip the 37-year-old perennial challenger as decisively as he did in their other collisions in Chicago and Detroit.

Newslefler (arries Alaska Lure fo ‘ Atiract Workers A Civil Service Assembly month- ly newsletter published in Chicago | which was received here by Dr. Ll J. Montgomery, director of the Al-| aska Merit System, gives an inter- esting paragraph on Alaska. Carried under the heading, “Want to be a modern pioneer?” the story reads: “Old sourdoughs prob- ably would be jealous if they could read the job announcements for stenographers recently issued by the Alaska Merit System. Increased salaries and pleasant surroundings are combined to lure them to Alas- ka. ‘Take a vacation and come to Juneau'—and you will stay and work for the Territory of Alaska. Quiet waters, long summer even- ings, fishing and weather-mollify- ing ocean currents are combined with more mundane benefits such | as thirty daysof annual leave and | a 38-hour working week. “Although nothing is said about the possibilities ~of panning for | gold, Territorial employees receiv- ing less than $5,000 annually re- cently got an 8 per cent salary in- crease. “A survey showed the medium cost for food and lodging for one per- | sors is $150 per month and for two sharing an apartment $95 each per month.” WIL GAMES By Associated Press Salem 4, Tri-City 0.
