NEW YORK, June Uv The 1 "ttle rod-faced new manager of th Chicago White Sox.

fresh from a thrilling to 6 12-inning victory over the pece-eetting Yankees grinned and said "Well, the Boston Braves did it in 1914 maybe we can, too." Lollypop Johnny Corriden was kidding of course, but for one week at least be rates the title of miracle manager, for he has transformed the White Sox from a dispirited brow-beaten team into a hustling, happy outfit that baa won six games out of eight unAmT hla leaderahin "Yeah, those Braves won the pnnant' and they were in last place on July he said. "Well, irk at us, we're climbing and it isn't July 4 yet. so we've got an edge on those boys." Yesterday's triumph, which moved the White Sox into six Dlace ahead of the Athletics, was a big one because it was engineered by Eddie Robinson and Ray Scarborough, two of the three players they picked up in the season's biggest trade with the Washington Senators. Robinson Wins Game. Robinson drove home two runs in the 12th with a resounding double that made the White Sox safe from Tommy Henrich's pinch- hit homer in the Yankee half of the inning.

Earlier, he touched off a three-run rally with a terrific homer into the upper stadium stands. Scarborough, the first right Sander to win a game in a starting role for the White Sox this season, pitched scatter-hit ball, bearing down brilliantly even though he gave up IS safe blows including a two-run game tying homer by Joe DiMaggio in the eighth. And Scarborough also contributed! a two-run single after Robinson's homer. It was second straight extra injning affray with the world champs.j They lost the first one in 10 innings, but played in both as if they were the equal of the Yankees or any pther ball club. Ths defeat cut New York's lead over second place Detroit to two games.

Detroit went on a base hit binge, beating the Philadelphia Athletics twice. 8 to 2 and 18 to 5 in a twi-night double-header. The Tigers pounded Lou Brissie and Hank Wyse for 14 hits in the opener as Ted Gray coasted to his fifth triumph of the season while Fred Hutchinson racked up his fifth victory in the nightcap as his teammates exploded for 21 hits.

Tha western sowers rightly insist their firm show of strength in Ber lin turned the well-edvertieed Whit sunt Ida rally of German Coramunut youth into a propaganda fiasco. Being realistic, Moscow could never hays believed that such an assembly of blue-ebirted youngsters could successfully storm the Allied held sectors of the city against determined opposition. The Russians must have understood from the Start, too, that the West would not it idly by while Red youths over ran the German metropolis. Perhaps they thought for a time that a mass drive on the western areas 'would put the Allies in the uncomfortable position before Germany and the world of shoot ing down German youth in the Berlin streets.

It became apparent, however, that the United States. Britain and France intend to repel any junior "invasion" of their sectors by every means short of bloodshed. Not that blood' might not have flowed had the move come off. But the prospect was that thousands upon thousands of youngsters would have been driven' back nothing more dramatic than powerful streams of water from fir hoses. Undignified retreat before such "weapons" could not have been twisted easily into a Communist triumph, moral or otherwise.

Since a propaganda advantage was the real Russian goal of this maneuver, what was left but, to call off the push Into West Berlin? Moscow, by restricting the rslly to Its portion of the city, ssved itself from humiliation but not from defeat. This bout went to the Allies. It was won for the same reason thai the Berlin blockade of 1948-49 was overcome: the West confronted Russia with an Iron resolve not to vleld. Yet no one watching or hearing of tha Whitsuntide youth carnival could avoid dismal parallels with the past. Flrat there were the Kaiser's legions, then the Nazis' browpshirts.

Linden, In the great placards' and fluttering banners ons senses the same dedicated subservience to a Leader and a Cause. Once again the world is witnessing the corruption of youth to the alms of dictators bent on global conquest. At Whitsuntide these Red youngsters of East Germany could only jeer at the guns of the western nations.

They will grow to manhood in a warped frame of mind which will perhaps make them eager to challenge these guns with their own metal. The Allies have triumphed in a propaganda skirmish. But the big battle for the minds of troubled peoples everywhere and especially the young minds goes much harder. Question Box What Is the "lost wax" process?

WASHINGTON. June 3 (NEA) Opinion la divided on the benefits or lacjc oi mem in me new, large, economy-size, single package appro- prlatlon bill. The House passed this first omnibus appropriation bill in record time, completing the job on May 10. Last year the House didn't complete action on the last of If regular appropriation bills until June 9. 8o It-was something of a time-saver.

The omnibus appropriation bill has also been something of a potential money-saver, at this halfway point in the proceedings. President Truman's budget called for approximately $30,700,000,000 for the domestic programs covered by the omnibus bill. The House Appropristions Com- mlttee cut roughly $1,300,000 000 from this figure. On the floor of the House further cuts of 000 were made. But increases of $483,000,000 were also made So the net Increase wss $449,000,000.

Then on the final day of consideration the House put over a couple of fast cuts for another more or less. The final answer comes out between $28,500,000,000 and $28,850,000,000. Thess actions were all taken as result of looking st the govern ment's budget as a single package. But along the this omnibus bill ran into some difficulties which make it objectionable. In the first place.

It took the House a full month to consider and act on the 11 chapers of the omni dus Din. was jong and tiresome jeDaie, run or ami ngures. By the time the House got around to chapter 11, many of the members had forgotten what they had done about chapter one. So the House did really act on 11 bills, pretty much as usual. For this reason, there is considerable feeling on Capitol Hill that the new procedure offers no net advantage.

At the same time, it is recognized thafconsidering government expenditures in a single package is the easiest way out for the politician. Because the omnibus appropriation bill la taken up item by item, it permits the congressmen to be for projects in his own district and state, while still being for over-all economy. The House really got two whacks atlhia Item-by'-item consideration of appropriations for next year. The first was in the full Appropriations Committee, after the various subcommittees had conducted hearings and made recommendations. That was where the first billion was saved.

There was considerable complaint by non-members that bigger cuts weren't made by the committee. But ths full membership had its chance to make further cuts item-by-item when the Appropriations Committee reported the bill to what known as the Committee of tha Whole House. This was what took the month and bored most Dwight Rogers of Florida to pro-was never big. This led" Rep. pose that there should be Fecord congressmen to tears.

Attendance roll calls, instead of voice votes, on all appropriations. Furthermore, this consideration by the Committee of the Whole didn't work. It didn't economize enough. So in the end the House had to resort to two queer dodges. First was an amendment by Rep John Taber of New York, and Albert Thomas of Texas.

It proposed savings of $600,000,000 by cutting expenditures for travel by 20 per cent and 10 per cent for all other expenses payroll, rent, etc. right across the board. Second was an amendment by Rep. Ben F. Jensen of Iowa It provides that 90 per cent of all vacancies' in government jobs during the fiscal year beginning July shall not be filled in this year.

The omnibus khi has now been tossed to the Senate Appropriations Committee. The real success or of this experiment will be judged by how the Senate amends the 434-pair House bill. 6 GIVE AND TAKE. WAYCROSS. Ga.

RAIN DRENCHES CHICAGO AREA 2.35-Inch Downpour in 24 Hours Floods Basements in Big City.

CHICAGO, June 8 IP A series of drenching thunderstorms which poured 2.35 inches of rain on Chicago ln 24 hours proved today that one man's meat is another man's poison. While city dwellers cursed the downpour and lightning which flooded basements, short-circuited street lights arfd blacked out homes, rural residents welcomed the rain as "just what the farmers needed." The storms began in Chicago yesterday morning and continued intermittently until last night. More rain was forecast for today. More than 50 underpasses were flooded by a single downpour latt night when the city's ancient sew age system was unaoie to carry away the water. One of the flooded underpasses was at 62nd and State streets where a similar condition a week ago made street car switching neces sary and indirectly caused a trolley to ram a-jgasoline truck, killing 2'.

persons. Many fires were started by light ning. Lightning struck an apartment building, blasting loose a concrete cornice which crashed through the roof into a third-floor apartment, No one was injured. Another bolt struck a harness racing paddock in suburban May-wood. The roof of the paddock was blown 100 feet onto the tracks of the Soo railroad.

A mail train was delayed 15 minutes while the debris was cleared. In rural portions of Illinois, Iowa and Indiana the corn crop benefited from the drenching. The rain extended over the Great Lakes region, the Upper Mississippi and the lower Missouri river valleys. North ern Illinois and Iowa were badly ln need of moisture. Showers were reported as far west as Nebraska and into parts awarded first place.

Smith, start ing from the last spot, finished second but was given first-place money when it was discovered that Dale Swame had passed him while there was an accident on the track. Swame, a Rockville veteran, was given second money and Bub Hanner of Columbus was third. Blue ribbon honors in the 5-lap trophy dash, pitting the four fastest qualifiers together in a special race, went to Russell who wheeled his number 27 around the distance in 1:55. Swame was second, Wiatt third and Johnny Smith fourth. The regular 15-lap "consie" was cut short when one car hurtled the fence and another turned a complete flip on the hair-pin northwest turn.

Over The Fence. Ray Humphrey, subbing for Hanner in number 33, lost control on the southeast curve and went over the fence. Humphrey crawled out unhurt. Thanks to a safety belt and a crash bar over the cockpit, Rouse is around today to tell about his narrow escape. He flipped his X-100 completely over, coming to rest on its he came out of the northwest curve.

Rouse escaped injury. First-place points in the abbreviated consolation went to Lloyd Stainbrook of Greensburg, Jim Quilleon of Columbus was second, Hoskins was third. Perry Goens of Noblesville fourth and Smith fifth. Trailing Hoskins to the tape in the feature event was Swame who paced the 10 cars the first few laps but gave yp the lead when he took a curve too wide. Goens was third, Russell fourth and Stain-brook fifth.

The Merchants were outhit eight but bunched four of their diows in one nig inning to taKe up the slack. Outfielder Ralph Rutan slammed a 3-run homer in this inning to account for the eventual win. Louis Teipen and Bob Fitch shared the hill chores for the Tavern nine, giving up a total of five walks and striking out eighL Several Errors.

Both teams were a bit shaky in the field and committed five errors each. Tyron started off the scoring in the top of the first with a brace of runs on a walk, two hits and a Merchant error. Sam Biers led off with a walk, advanced on a shortstop's error and romped home on Charlie Cooper's double. Left fielder Bob Wilson singled to plate Cooper.

First sacker Bill Gray got to first on an error and went all the way on two more Tyron bobbles. Knot Score. The locals tied it up at 2-2 in the bottom of the fourth on a hit batsmen, one hit, and an error. Third baseman Don Scheldt, one of the old stand-bys from last year's Merchant nine, reached" first when hit by a pitched ball, advanced on an error and crossed the patter on shortstop Bill Kautz's timely single. The locals looked like the Merchants of old in the bottom of the fifth when they broke loose with four tallies.

Catcher George Schwartzkopf started things off with a single, took second on Dale Bowden's 1- base poke and came home when Bill Gray drilled another single. Bowden and Gray trotted home ahead of Rutan when the veteran outfielder waded into a fast one for a long home run. Atkins Scores. Columbus made it 7-2 in the last of the sixth when Joe Tom Atkins led off with a single, stole second and came home when the Tyron second baseman booted Schwartz-kopf's ground ball. The visitors all but won the game in the top of the ninth when they took advantage of three hits and one Merchant error to come within one run of knotting the count.

Boll got the first batter via the strikeout route but trouble cropped up when the Merchant catcher let missed third strike get away from him and send Howard Hayes first. Tyron Rallies. Hayes came all the way when Bob Fitch doubled. Biers popped the left fielder hnf ITitrh tfnriil an outfield error. Cooper slammed his second double, plating both runners, and scored himself when Chuck Waite drilled a single.

Left fielder Wilson popped to center field to send the rally and hand the Merchants a 7-6 win. Cooper slammed two doubles and Fitch got a double and single lead the visitors.

Threatening clouds and rain In other parts of the state kept many of the cars, of the associa tion away from the Twenty-fifth street pits.

However, 16 of the scheduled 24 speedsters showed and six of the slated seven events were run. Spins and spills were a dime-a- dozen as wet turf and the hairpin turns of the oval made it almost impossible to generate any speed. No. 77 Is The bulk of the evening's purse went back to Jamestown with young Les Hoskins who steered his black 77 into the winner circle in the second 10-lap heat event and the 20-lap feature. Hoskins also picked up a third in the con solation event and would have finished even higher had he not passed a car when the caution flag was up.

Time for the feature, slowed down by numerous spin-outs, was eight minutes 19 seconds. Bill Russell of Danville. the evening's fastest qualifier with a 23.1 reading, led the field to the checkered flag in the first elimination event. Only three cars finished the race, with Lebanon's Junior Quick grabbing second and Babe Wiatt of Crawfordsville tak ing third. Johnny Smith, also of Lebanon, took second behind Hoskins in the second heat event.

Terre Haute's Johnny Britton placed third and Bob Rouse of Crawfordsville was fourth.
