Today the Phillies clutch a half- game lead in the National League, all that remains of the 2l%-game bulge they proudly owned when the Cardinals flew in from St. Louis three nights ago. The Cards got two victories and a tie in their first three meetings of the season with the league lead- ers, St. Louis clipped one game off the Phils Tuesday with a 7-6 edge over Jim Konstanty and his successors. Wednesday night the Cards beat Curt Simmons 1-0 11 innings, Thursday night they battled Robin Roberts to"a 1-1 tie unil rain ended the game after five innings. Ray Jablonski homered in the second inning to put St. Louis in front, but the Phils came back for one in their half of the second on a 8 pair of singles and an infield e teams will have to start a over later in the season. Jablonski's blow was one of four hits the Cardinals managed against Roberts. Brooklyn Dodgers won their fourth straight during the afternoon as they trimmed cinnati Red- legs 7-4. New York Giants snap- ped a three-game losing streak with a 1-0 squeaker over Mil waukee and Pittsburgh edged Chi- cago 4-2 in other National League action. In the American League New York Yankees whipped Chicago White Sox 6-1 and St. Louis Browns defeated Washington 3-1. Philadel- phia's game at Detroit was rained out. Boston and Cleveland weren't scheduled. The Yankees, who got soaked $450 in fines for their part in the melee in St. Louis Tuesday night, found themselves involved in an- other small ruckus in Chicago, Mickey Mantle has been hitting his home rups so far that they've in |left no doubt, but at Comiske Park in the fourth inning, ted one about which the he Sox had a lot of doubts. The ball bounced back on to the field after a boy with more desire than tal- ent made an unsuccessful stab at catching it. Umpire Jim Duffy waved Mantle around and, when Chicago manager Paul Richards beefed too long about the decision, Duffy waved him out of the park. Hitting star of the contest was young Bill Renna, up from Kansas City. He homered, 'tripled and singled in four trips. e husky righthander was playing left field for Gene Woodling, who was benched with inflamed eyes. Bob Elliott took over the runs- batted-in lead in the American League Thursday night with a three-run home run, all the runs the Browns needed to beat Wash- ington. e drive broke up a pitching duel between Chuck Stobbs and Virgil Trucks, who gave up only three hits to the Senators. Brooklyn spotted Cincinnati two runs in the first inning and then caught up fast as Duke Snider homered in the Dodger half of the first with Peewee Reese on base. Brooklyn went ahead to stay in the second inning with four more runs. At Pittsburgh, rookie Frank Tho- mag broke up a 2-2 tie in the last of the ninth when he homered with Ralph Kiner on base to end the game. At New York, Bobby Thomson, who became a permanent Giant favorite when he won 'the decid- ing game of the 1951 playoff ser- jes against Brooklyn with a ninth- inning home run, provided a con- siderably shorter duplicate to break up the game with Milwaukee. Thomson's blow, only the fifth hit off Vern Bickford, hit the top of the short left field wall and bounced into the stands.

He figures to have the thing completed in a matter of another two weeks . . . so the scheduled spring-training grind of the local team marks time until the moment of the com- pletion of said marine edifice.

The Maryland racing commission made its decisions after MacPhail failed to appear at a second hear- ing on the charge. His lawyer, William D. MacMillan, said he was unable to offer any defence because he hadn't been able to locate Mac- Phail. The commission ruled its April 14 order banning MacPhail from entering Bowie would be continued until after the spring meeting end- ing Saturday. The punishment amounts to a 17-day suspension. MacPhail was removed by the Bowie directors as president t hree days after the commission origin- ally suspended him. The 63-year- old former baseball magnate still faces police charges of drunk and disorderly conduct and assaulting a state trooper. Both sets of charges arose from MacPhail's actions at Bowie Satur- day, April 11, NEW! ® The ONLY Portable Only $89.50! 28 KING ST.

Considering the short right- field fence in the Stadium, such gentlemen might be appre- ciated if they can make a place on the club. Another player who tried out that evening was Jim Earle from Simcoe, Ontario. He played in al] classes of ball right up from bantam down in the western end of the province. He made the Inter- mediate team and then went into the services. He's another outfielder and he hits from the left-hand side. At first we figured the team would be three or four deep in the outfield, but now . . five or six is more like it.

Carse was bent on getting a good. rest for himself and the players in the hope that the V's can get rolling Saturday. "The Dutchmen outshone us at every turn, tonight," Carse said. "We blew our chances early i the game and later in the secon period when we had the Dutch- men on the run we couldnt pro- duce around the net." The team morale seemed shaky but several of the players ventured the opinion that they could come from behind and win the series. "We've done it before," they chorused weakly, "and we can do it. again." "That was the worst game we've played this season," declared Grant (Knobby) Warwick. Penticton captain Willie (Scra rap Iron) Schmidt agreed. '"'We can't seem to get rolling. This club isn't skating, but we'll be tougher Saturday," he said. Meanwhile, the scene in the Dutchmen dressing room was a happy one, although the Dutchies refrained from being overconfident. Coach Bob Rafferty had a big smile but he pointed out that the Dutchmen have played better games than they did Thursday night. "But we'll be tough to beat if we 'keep driving," he added. Club president Bobby Bauer was also elated, but he spoke in the same vein as the coach.
