By Ben Olen

NEW !'ORK. Sept. lB-(AP)- rhe schedule. which appears to favor Brooklyn Dodgers and Cleveland Indians in the closing stages of the pennant races. also gives the edge to Hank Bauer and Luke Easter in the competition for the major league home run crowns.

With only 10 playing days re- maining. here's the way the home run races shape up: National Lea- gue-Sauer, Chicago. 37; Kiner. Pittsburgh. 36. American League -Doby. Cleveland. 30; Easter, Cleveland, 30; Berra. New York, an; Dropo. Detroit, 28, and zero- lsl. Philadelphia. 27.

Sauer. who has six games in which to add to his total of circuit clouts, will play half of them at

Both Easter and Doby have eight games in which to break their deadlock for the American League lead, six of them at home. Big Luke has hit 16 in Municipal Stad- ium while Doby has recorded 14 there. The husky Cleveland first sacker is the better September hir- ter so far. having socked seven into the seats this month while Doby has hit only two.

Berra, in contention most of the year. has only three tilts left at home starting with tomorrow night's game against Philadelphia. Yogi has ,connected 18 times in the Yankee Stadium while hitting 11 homers on the road where he has six games left.

Dropo, only two homers behind. figures as the dark horse. The Tigers slugger still has nine games remaining. five at home and four in enemy territory. Walt's record with Detroit shows 10 home runs in Briggs Stadium and 12 away. With Boston. he had five at home and only one on the road.

Zernlal, last year's top man, still has an outside chance. The Ath- letlcsi power hitter has seven games left, four in his favorite Shibc Park and three in Yankee Stadium. Gus has walloped 16 of his homers at home and 11 away

this season.

DE WARE. 0., Sept. 18 -(AP) --A he y downpour washed out the deciding heats of the s30.463.- 85 "Little Brown Jug" today, giving 35,000 drenched customers 24 hours in which to chat about the amazing performance of outsider Wilmlngton's star and substitute. driver Bill Haughton in winning the only pre-rain test.

The three-year-old pacing classic will be resumed tomorrow, if weather permits. Otherwise it will go Saturday.

But for today at least, the story of the seventh annual "Jug" is the the story of wilmington's Star, 1-Iaughton and 61-year-old Harry Fitzpatrick. one of the harness sport's cannlest trainers.

In July, Wllmlngton's injured and kept away from the races until last week when he started in the county fair at Sid- ney. 0. lie won both heats, with Fitzpatrick in the sulky, and owner R. L. Craig of Urbana. 0.. decided to send him after the big "Jug" money.

But Fitzpatrick aggravated an old injury on the bumpy Sidney track, and decided he couldn't handle the colt today. Craig and Fitzpatrick put wllmlngton's Star on the block with 9. 330,000 price tag on him.

Haughton, trainer and public stable operator and the country's No. l money-winniiig driver, look- ed at the horse, but decided not to buy.

However. Fitzpatrick asked him to handle Wllmington's Star in the "Jug", and llaughton accepted.

Today Wilmington's Star rolled into the lead at the eighth pole. was third at the quarter. fourth at the half, still fourth at three- duarters and came into the stretch in third place. '

Adio Abe was leading on the rail. with Meadow Rice and Wllming-, fan's Star behind him. and Thunderclap fourth on the outside. Meadow Rice and Wilmington's Star broke out and in a whipping stretch drive Wilmington's Star

NEW YORK, Sept. 18 - (AP)- Basebsll's two top pitchers.-Phih ndelphis's Robin Roberts and Bobby Shanta-figure today to be the key menin the twin battles for the major league pennants.

Neither Roberts of the Phil: nor Shanta of the Athletics harbors any hopes of pitching in a World series game this fall, but both are in a position to be the guys who can decide who will.

A look at the schedule explains why.

Three games separate the pace- settlng Brooklyn Dodgers and New York Giants in the National League race. Each team has nine games left to play. The Giants must face the Phillies six more times, three in Philadelphia and three in New York. That means they will see Roberts twice. The Dodgers have three games with
