goes next- and when the Dodgers
finally do decide on Los Angeles
probably within the next few days
they 11 leave the wlecome mat out
in New York, for the Cincinnati
Kedlegs.
Dodger President Waller O'Mal
ley wasn’t particularly concerned
today that the New York Giants
had beaten him to the punch by
their decision to play in San Fran
cisco next year, but it was consid
ered a foregone conclusion that he
will have a similar announcement
ol his own before Oct. 1.
Even before the Dodgers trans
fer to Los Angeles, however, the
Cincinnati Redlegs are expected
to Co ns innate a deal whereby they
will play in the Polo Grounds next
year.
NEW YORK IIP) _ The Giants
leave New York with the best pen
nant-winning record of any team
in the National League.
During the modern era of base
ball starting in 1900, the Giants
won 15 pennants and five world
championships. They also finished
first twice during the "Gaslight
Era"—in 1888 and 1889.
The only major league club with
a better pennant-winning record is
the New York Yankees.
NEW YORK (IP _ Feather -

The Bookies Consider
Yankees, Braves In
By MILTON RICHMAN
United Press Sports Writer
The Yankees and Braves are i
“in," according to the oddsmak- :
ers, and that’s the same feeling
Casey Stengel and Fred Haney i
shared today although they both
made the traditional “anything
can- happen- yet” speech just to1
hedge a bit.
Stengel’s Yankees have a 7 1-2
game lead with only 37 games left
to play as they launch their final
Western trip tonight with a game
against their Kansas City cousins.
The quotation on the world i
champions is “out” and 10-1. That
means if you want to bet they
will win the American League 1
pennant, you're out of luck, but
it you want to bet they won’t, you
can get 10-1 odds.
Milwaukee, with a 6 1-2 —game (
lead and 37 ganries remaining,
starts its last big road trip of the
year with a game against the j
Pirates tonight. And if you think
the Braves won't win the National
League flag, there’s 7-1 odds wait
ing for you.
Apparently, neither Stengel nor
Haney is worrying unduly about
“blowing” the pennant in the next
40 days.
“This thing ain't over yet,” said
the ever—cautious Stengel, “even
though I gotta say we look in j
good shape. If we can get through I
this trip with a pretty good lead,
I think we'll be all right.”
On the Milwaukee side of the
ledger. Haney pooh — poohed the
idea that the Braves’ three week
end losses to the second—place St.
Louis Cardinals was the beginning
of a "nosedive.”
"It was just a natural let—down
after winning 10 in a row,” de
clared the Milwaukee skipper. "I
think we can bounce right back.
This is a good ball club that’s con
fident it can go all the way.”
Kansas City defeated Cleveland,
1-0, on Tom Gorman’s four — hit
pitching in the only major league
game scheduled Monday.
The Athletics scored the only
run of the game in the sixth in
ning off Ray Narleski when Bob
Cerv singled, stele second and
came home on Tim Thompson's
single. The victory was Gorman’s
third of the season while Narleski
suffered his third loss against nine
victories.
Gino Cimoli’s llth-inning double
gave the Dodgers a 2-1 victory
over the International League All
Stars at Montreal. Held hitless
over the first six innings, tied the
score in the eighth and went on to
win the game in the 11th on Ci
moii's hit which scored Junior
Gilliam. Southpaw Sandy Koufax
was the winner in relief.

CHICAGO OP — Bob Keegan of
the Chicago White Sox said today
that a new "slow motion” wind
up helped him hurl the season’s
first no-hitter.
The 36-year-old right - hander,
once considered washed up he
eause of arm trouble, tried out
his new delivery Tuesday night for
the first time as he blanked the
Washington Senators, 6-0, walking
two batters and striking out only
one.
CHICAGO (IP! — Lightweight
champion Joe Brown rates his TV
opponent tonight, Joey Lopez, as
a tough boy, but he thought today
he might ring up the 28th knock
out of his career.
“ I won't have to look for him,”
Brown said. "He’H be there. So if
I can nail him, I’ll knock him
out.”
