Eberhartl OUR PRICES 10 fell the third. Except for the first inning, when the Brooks loaded the bases on two walks and a single with two out, this was their only solid threat. PITTSBURGH kept pecking away at Meyer and Palica all through the rain-spattered afternoon. Time after time they threatened but couldn't come through with Ihe hit that would have tied the score. Meyer was chased in the second by both the Pirates and Plate Umpire Lon Warneke.

After Sid Gordon, Toby Atwell and Gair Allie singled in succession to load the bases, Dick Hall's sacrifice fly drove in the lone Pittsburgh run. Hall's fly was taken by Carl Furillo with one hand against the scoreboard in right field. Alter Meyer walked Pitcher Thies, he was replaced by Palica. On the way to the dugout Meyer sounded off to Warneke and was thumbed off the bench after an exchange of words. Palica retired the next two hitters and blanked the Pirates until he was relieved by Jim Hughes after walking the first man up in the eighth.

Prevailing speculation here is that the New York Giants, which own the Minneapolis club, would move as the Stoneham interests would like to get better monetary returns from the Polo Grounds by using the property for a housing project. As for St.

Paul, it is believed Brooklyn, in return for becoming New York's only National 'League representative, would be most happy to turn over that franchise to the Giants for practically nothing.

Paul committee, which hat been working tow ards a big league park since July, 1952, has learned. There have been consistent rebuffs from property-owners who say "Yes, let's have a big-league stadium but not in my neighborhood." And there has bpen constant jealousy between the two cities. St. Paul men hae been known to divorce wives who patronize Minneapolis stores and vice versa. The latpt offer came from the village nf Bloomingtnn which is directly south of the Minneapolis city limits.

A 105-aere site would he, purchased and revenue bonds issued to hutld the stadium. Minneapolis business leaders were reported "enthusiastic" about the proposal but the St. Paul group was regarded as "cool." A joint meeting is planned soon. If St. Paul can't be won over this time.

Minneapolis private capital may be enlisted for the deal. A bitter blow was the failure last week of the University of Minnesota to assist the stadium project. There was land available, at the University's farm division, which is in a different part of the Twin Cities from the campus and the football stadium. For the first time in memory of many persons here, the two cities were able to agree on this site. Rut the University regents, after a closed meeting, rejected the proposal.

One of the prime workers for the park, Charles Johnson, sports editor of the Minneapolis Tribune and Star, caustically commented: "This was one of the few requests business, civic and sports leaders of this metropolitan area ever have made of the University for co-operation in a joint venture that would do untold good in so many ways for Minneapolis and St. Paul. "Actually the whole affair got down to politics and once that became a factor the Twin Cities baseball committee found itself called out on strikes. "The opponents of the land transfer deal cleverly injected the political aneles and they became most important factors in the final derision. "The Twin Cities committee which has worked tirelessly for two years for something it thinks is good for everyone made an honest, lactual presentation of the case.

Tha a pproach finished second best: to expert political maneuvering by the opposition who are so well versed in such methods." Minneapolis and St. Paul believe they ran support big leRgire basehall because their trading rone has a population of l.UrWnO, 1.1th largest in the United States.

The switch, hitting Mantle, who had been benched against righthanders this year because his knee operation hampered his lefthanded batting, had a perfect four-for-four as a lefty. When he bat ted right handed against Southpaw Bill Werle in the eighth, he grounded out. New York hopped on Rookie Truman Clevenger for three runs in the third inning on a hit batsman, a sacrifice, Hank Bauer's double, singles by Mantle and Y'ogi Berra and an error by First Baseman Harry Ag-ganis. TUB WAY Reynolds was pitching that was plenty.

But the Yanks picked up two more in the fifth when Mantle drove his fifth home run inio 1he right-field bleachers after Bauer singled. Rizzuto's single and Mantle's fourth hit. a triple to left off reliefer Tom Brewer, added another in the seventh. A walk.
