The papal audience for all Olympic athletes and officials in St. Peter's Square just precedes the arrival of the Olympic torch from Greece. At City Hall, the torch will be set in a tripod, remaining lit until it is carried to the Olympic Stadium for the official opening of the games. A pro-Communist newspaper, Paese Sera, disclosed Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev sent an Olympic message to Rome, to be delivered the Soviet embassy to the Italian games organizers shortly before today's papal audience.

The newspaper said as a result of Khrushchev's message, confirming a "spirit of that 10 of the Soviet Union's 400- member athletic delegation would attend the audience by the head of the Catholic Church.

The re-election meant a vote of confidence for the austere amateurism preached by Brundage, if not practiced to his wishes, throughout the world.

WHITE SOX ONLY GAME OUT Wynn Beats Yankees, Vows Revenge For Beanball Pitch By ED WILKS Associated Press Sports Writer Now that Early Wynn has cut the New York Yankees down to size, the next step is to knock 'em flat. The 40-year-old right-hander, a tough guy with a brush-back pitch, promised to do just that after he pitched the second Chicago White Sox victory over New York and trimmed the Yankees' American League lead to a half-game Tuesday night.

What got Wynn riled was a ninth-inning pitch by Yankee reliever Jim Coates that just missed his head. Wynn made for the mound, bat in hand, before teammates and the umps checked his charge. "Sure it was a beanball," Wynn said afterward. someday I'm going to get all nine of 'em (the Yankees). "And if I get Coates outside the park, I'll put a knot on his head." With Wynn, a first-inning replacement for Billy Pierce in a switch that led the Yanks to pro- OLYMPIC SWIMMER Dawn Fraser, 22, of Australia, could turn out to be the top girl athlete of the Olympic Games opening in Rome: She is entered in five swim events.

The Sox beat Grba with three runs in the first, one unearned, and then added two unearned runs in the seventh. A triple by Nellie Fox, a walk, one of the Yankees' three errors, and singles by Gene Freese and Al Smith wrapped it up in the first inning.

Manager Al Lopez then brought in Wynn to replace Pierce, who made a couple of warm up tosses, but didn't pitch to a batter. The Sox had pulled a muscle: in a warm up. The Yanpregame kees protested, saying the rules state a pitcher must face one man, unless injured. The Tigers made it seven in a row, their longest winning streak since 1956, when Charlie Maxwell tagged losing reliever Wes Stock (2-2) for a two-run homer in the 11th. Detroit had tied it with two in the ninth on singles by Maxwell and Rocky Colavito and a double by Al Kaline.

So Cleveland Plain Dealer Sports Writer CLEVELAND (AP) -The tendency among disappointed Cleveland Indian fans is to pin the blame on General Manager Frank Lane. Maybe frantic Frank is at fault--and then again, maybe he isn't. The Indians, in second place 114 games behind league-leading New York on July 16, have tumbled to fifth place, 11 games out. During that span, the team has lost 25 of 36 games.

Before a man is condemned he usually is given the right to defend himself. Even a lynching party allows a prisoner a chance to speak his mind. So, these questions were put to Lane Monday in Boston. Q. Frank, what's wrong with the Indians: A.

Here was the one man on the club we could ill afford to lose. What ever chance we had to win the pennant-and in my mind it was a good chance--it went out the window when he got hurt. When we lost Held we lost a good bit of our power. Little Mike de la Hoz has done a good job filling in, but we really didn't appreciate Held until we lost him. Q.

"I guess you can say that winning has been the most pleasing thing about those two pre-season games," Lombardi said Tuesday night, "but we haven't been very sharp. "That will come, though, it must come." Lombardi gave his team a day of rest Tuesday after it returned to Green Bay from New Jersey where it beat the New York Giants in a National Football League exhibition game Monday night 16-7.
