Dodgers Move Step Closer To Clinching Pennant; Yanks Suffer Setback

(Canadian Press)

Brooklyn Dodgers moved a step closer to clinching the National League pennant Wednesday by downing the pesky Boston Braves but New York Yankees suffered a setback in the Ameri- can League.

The harassed but unbowed Dodger: slugged out a 15-5 "must" victory over Boston in what may prove to be the crusher to New York Giants flag chan- ces. The victory helped to case the sting of Tuesday's double setback at the hands of the Braves.

The amazing New York Giants kept pace with the Dodgers by crushing Philadelphia Phillics 10-1 in a night game at Phil- adelphiu. That left them one game back of the leaders as Larry Jansen racked up his 21st victory of the campaign.

Little Bobby Shantz sliced New York's American Lcugue lead to 2 1-2 games over Cleve- land Indians with a six-hit 4-1 victory for Philadelphia A's on

home runs by Ferris Fain, Gus Zernial and Dave Phllley. The Yankees. idle until ri

doubleheader Friday with Boston, still need two wins or two Cleve- land defeats to wrap up their third straight pennant. They have five games to play and Cleveland has two.

Don Newcombc. in his fourlli try for his 19th victory for Brooklyn. finally made it with an eight-hitter. He was stoked to a 4-0 lead in the first inning and coasted along despite giving up home runs to Bob Addis and Earl Torgeson in the eighth.

The Dodgers bunched all their runs into three innings. Follow- ing their riotous fourirun first. they lowered the boom on star- ter Max Surkont with another four-run outburst in the fifth. They added seven more tallies in the eighth.

Every Dodger with the excep- tion of Newcombe partook in the attack. chipping in with at

least one safety. All but Andy Pafko scored at least one run and only Newcombe and Pee

Wee Reese failed to drive in a mate.

Roy Campanella led the hit parade with three blows and bat- ted in five tallies to boost his team-leading total to. 107.

Shantz, a lefty joined Mel Par- nell and Virgil Trucks as four- time winners over the Yankees as a special 26th birthday pre- sent to himself.

Needing only a win to assure themselves of at least a tie. the Yanks were completely victimiz- ad by the talented little fellow. All six of their hits were sing- les while the Philadelphia "spoil- ers" turned on the extra base

triple and three doubles in their 10-hit attack on loser Bob Kuzava and Johnny Sain.

Jimmy Dykesl hustlers man- handled Kuzava in the early inn- ings while Shantz made the Yanks roll over and play dead. But for Billy Hitchcock's two- base boot of Mickey Mantie's smash In the first, would have had a shutout.

Ferris Fain. the about-to-be crowned league batting champ- ion. hammered his sixth homer into the lower right field stands in the first.

The Yanks bunched two sing- les in the sixth and ninth with- out damaging Shantz' pep. The 200th double play pulled him out in the sixth. In the ninth he whistled a fancy curve past Gil McDougald with two on and two out to end the game.

The flickering pennant hopes of Boston Red Sox were all but ex- tinguished when Washington downed them 7-3 in a night game at Washington. Sid Hudson and Tom Ferrick collaborated on the mound to hold the Bostonians to six hits.

Probe Operations Of Boxing Club

WASHINGTON. Sept. 26 -(APi- The Justice Department said to- day its anti-trust division is look- ing into the operations of the International Boxing Club in New York City.

The inquiry was started about t.wo months ago as a result of com- plaints filed with the department that a monopoly had developed in the fight field.

Officials declined to be specific about who made the complaints. but said there were some from members of congress.

It was emphasized that the in- vestigation is strictly preliminary. The Federal Bureau of Investiga- tion has not been called in. as would be the case if the prelimin- ary investigation disclosed pos- sible grounds for action.

In New York, l.B.C. managing director" Harry Markson said:

"We welcome such an investiga- tion. We know our operations are perfectly okay. We can stand it."

NEW YORK, Sept. 26 (AP) -With Willie Pep huddiing in his corner protesting to referee Ray Miller he couldn't. go on. Sandy Sadvdiler successfully de- fended his vvorid featherweight title tonight with a ninc-round technical knockout, in a bout marred by rough-house wrestling tactics.

Warned repeatedly by Miller for his leg holds and body twists in this grudge battle at the Polo Grounds, Pep gave up the strug- glc.

A savage left hook dumped Pep on his haunches for an eight count in the second round of this wrestling match. That was the only clean cut knockdown of the evening although both were on the deck several times in bunny hugs.

Miller said he went to Pcp's corner at the end of the ninth to tell him "cut out the wrestling and holding or I'll call this no contest."

He said Pc-p then told him, "I

can't go on any further. My cyc bothers me.” Pops right eye was gashed in

the second round. It was a smear of blood in the third. HOWG'VOl'. at the end Dr. Vincent Nardielln of the New York State Athletic Commission said "The eye was all right. He could see out. of it."

Pep Had Slight Edge A quick look at the score cards of the three officials showed Pep. out front by a slender margin.'
