She paused to doff an Oriole cap to Umpire Bill Summers. then turned and flipped her skirt in the veteran umpire's face.

She was just breaking into a few can-can steps when a police officer escorted her off the field. When she returned to the stands a moment later, she was given a standing ovation by her section. The rest of the evening belonged to the A's. In the opener, both pitchers got off to good starts, but it was Pappas who had the fans buzzing when he set the A's down without a hit through five frames. Any thoughts of a no-hitter, or even a victory were quickly dispelled in the sixth, however.

Herzog Draws Second Walk With one out, Herzog drew Pappas's second walk of the game. Martyn then singled sharply to center for the first Kansas City hit, Herzog stop ping at second. On the next two hitters, Lopez and Maris, Pappas quickly ran the count to two strikes and nothing, but each then singled to center to send in a run apiece With runners on first and third, Pappas fanned Harry Simpson for the second out to ease the situation, but Smith grounded a single to left and the A's were in front 3-0. When DeMaestri opened the Kansas City seventh with a double down the left field line, and scored with two away on Martyn's double over the first base bag, Beamon replaced Pappas. Martyn Out At Plate Lopez beat out an infield hit to Gardner behind second, but when Martyn rounded third at full speed and attempted to score, he was cut down at the plate, Boyd to Joe Ginsberg Beamon and Lehman stopped the A's the rest of the way, but the Birds could do little wiih Carver.

Even the balls they hit hard off the Kansas City right hander were right at the field ers. For instance, Williams' opened the sixth with a single, but was immediately doubled off first as Herzog speared Boyd's hot liner and stepped on first. Lopez Drops Throw The lone Oriole run came in the After Lopez stabbed Joe Taylor's leadoff liner, Robinson singled off Smith's glove at third. Gardner then hit a double play ball at Smith, but when Lopez dropped the throw at second for an error, Robinson went all the way to third. Miranda followed with an other double play bouncer toward Lopez.

However, Gardner held up between first and sec ond. Lopez threw to first for one out, but before the As could retire Gardner in a run down for the third out, Robin son had crossed the plate. Garver set the Birds down in order in the eighth and ninth and it was all over: The Birds got off to a miser able start in the nightcap, when Williams misjudged Herzog's line drive and it fell for a triple. The ball was well-tagged and there is some doubt wheth er Williams would have caught it had he played it correctly. Hits Fence 405 Feet Away Apparently losing the drive in the lights, the center fielder didn't break into a run until it was obvious the ball was over his head.

It hit at the base of the wire fence some 405 feet from the plate. With Herzog on third, Mar tyn dropped a little looper be hind second. Miranda and Gard ner converged on it in short center, but couldn't make the SEE NO PANIC Attendance Sag Causes Concern, Declares Richards By LOU HTTFB Continued from 1st Sport Page we are behind Paul Richards iuu per cent. 0 A proposed "new look" major league schedule that would open next spring on Friday. April 10, four, days earlier than has been customary, evoked mixed re action yesterday from Oriole players and club officials.

I think it a big gamble on the weather, which is already too uncertain, declared left-fielder Bob Nieman, Baltimore's American League player representative. Dunn Likes Idea Jack Dunn, whose multiple duties as assistant general manager of the Birds embrace sched ule-making, expressed himself as "heartily in favor" of the tentative earlier 1959 start. It's going to benefit the owners by providing an extra weekend to boost attendance," said Dunn. "And, while the players may not like the idea at first, they're going to find those several extra open dates very convenient for extra rest when the baked in fields get hard in August and begin to take their toll on the veteran's legs." Eliminates Letdown Dunn added that a Friday opening for the American and National leagues, if adopted, "makes pretty good jsense because it eliminates thfe letdown of Wednesday and Thursday which has always followed the traditional Tuesday season Inaugural." The proposed new 1959 schedule blueprint was conceived Initially in order to solve some of the National League problems resulting from the shift of the Dodgers and Giants to Los An geles and San Francisco. Skinny Brown, veteran Ori ole pitcher, indorsed the idea "if it means a possible reduction in the number of double-headers and a reduction in the number of spring exhibition gamps." 'Play Exhibitions Anyhow' "We may as well start playing for keeps on April 10, because we'd be playing exhibitions any how, declared Brown.

Outfielder Gene Woodling shared Nieman's view on adverse LApril weather, with the com ment: "Well probably get rained out on half our extra dates by starting early, and that 11 mean more double-headers than ever." But Coach AI Vincent regarded variances in the weather between April 10-14 as "negligible." "Most clubs return to their home base several days ahead of opening day for exhibition games anyhow," said Vincent. "We may as well be playing games that count for something." Likes Autumn Better Bill Walsingham, executive vice president of the Birds, favors adding days to any extension of the schedule in October, "when you can take advantage of the better early autumn weather." But Manager-General Manager Paul Richards and center fielder Jim Busby disagreed with Walsingham. "When they think of some way to end the baseball season by Sept. 15, that'll be real progress," said Busby. "After that date, baseball interest conflicts with football, except for the World Series." Considered By Executives "So long as they don't add dates onto the end of the schedule, the season won't seem a bit longer," observed Richards.

The new schedule format is now in the hands of American and National League executives. The prospect of a lucrative twenty-fifth Sunday date is expected to bring about adoption of the measure. Where the dollar mark is concerned there is almost always a unanimity of positive thinking in baseball. Jack Harshman (9-11) and Bud Daley (2-2) are slated to match pitches in tonight's 8.05 P.M. series windup between me Orioles and Kansas City.

Both are southpaws. Daley, who was Baltimore property briefly last spring following the Larry Doby swap with Cleveland, was traded off to the Athletics, April 17, in exchange for Arnold Portocar-rero. Fred Valentine, whose .325 average has been topping the Class-B Carolina League for the Birds' Wilson (N.C.) farm club, will be inducted into the Army next week for a six-months duty tour. Valentine also leads the circuit in hits, total bases, stolen bases and is tied for first place in triples and runs scored.

That got in the run.

and when Martyn saw that neither' Portocarrero nor Boyd had cov ered second, he cruised into the bag unmolested with a double. Portocarrero retired the side without further damage, but when DeMaestri homered on a 3-2 pitch in the second, the A' were In front, 2-0. Error Helps Birds Tie With the help of an error, the Birds tied it in the third. Wil liams opened with a single, and Herzog then scooped up Boyd's bouncer and threw it into left field attempting a force. Williams reached third on the error and scored as Woodling bounced out.

With two away. Taylor singled off DeMaestri'3 glove to send in Boyd from' third. The A's immediately scored three more for a 5-2 advantage. Simpson started the rally with' a single. Smith walked and Chiti lobbed a single to left.

Simpson scored easily, and when Wood ling slipped, letting the ball go by him for an error. Smith tal lied all the way from first. ith two out, Herzog singled Chiti. across. Woodling Hits Twelfth Another Kansas City error helped the Birds creep to with in a run of a tie in the fifth.

Boyd's bouncer skipped through, Lopez and Woodling followed with his twelfth homer. That was as close as the Birds- were to get. Gorman replaced Dickson at the start of the sixth to stop the Flock cold, and the A's added another marker against Loes, who went the last three frames for the Birds. Simpson's double and a single by Smith accounted for that i i nnai ransas uy run in me eighth. The Birds get one more shot at the A's tonight as Kansas' City makes its final Memorial Stadium appearance of the year.

Drysdale's home run was his fifth of the season. He has more than any other pitcher in the majors. He set the Braves down with five hits, striking out five and walking none.

It was his fourth straight victory over the Braves this season and his seventh in a row going back to last year. Drysdale, who lost seven of his first eight decisions this year, is 8-11. Left-hander John Podres got off to a wobbly start for the Dodgers in the second game but finished with a four hitter. He walked eight and struck out five. Brave Streak Ends The Dodgers ended a Mil waukee winning streak at seven games in the opener.

Charlie Neal drove in three runs with his twenty-first homer, a looping shot over the left-field screen. Neal, a shotstop tonight but normally a second baseman, has more home runs than any other player in Dodger history regularly assigned to second base. Jackie Robinson hit 19 in his best year. Drysdale slapped his homer over the screen with the bases empty in the fifth. Bill Bruton produced the only Milwaukee run with his third homer, a bases-empty drive in the third.

Jay Knocked Out Righthander Carl Willey, working seven innings, took the defeat, his fourth in 12 decisions. Another young Milwaukee right-hander Joey Jay, was driven from the mound in. the second inning of the nightcap. Don Demeter opened with a double and scored on Podres's bouncing single up the middle. Then Junior Gilliam singled and came in on Larker's line-drive homer into the right-field seats.

France Beats Russia For World Foil Title Philadelphia, Aug. 19 (JP) France won the men foil team title in the world fencing cham pionships tonight even though it lost its final match to Russia, 9 to 7.

Both France and Russia each had two victories and one defeat and both won 27 bouts. But France had 168 touches against to 177 for Russia and won the title on that basis. Italy, which also got into the final, likewise had a 2-1 mark. but won only 25 matches. The United States was eliminated yesterday in the preliminaries.

The Americans lost both their bouts, to Russia and Franc. The smooth Russians dumped France't Christian D'Oriola twice. Jensen Socks 33d Homer For Lone Boston Tally Boston, Aug. 19 (JP) Dick Donovan pitched a four-hitter, marred only by Jackie Jensen's thirty-third homer, tonight in leading the onrushing Chicago White Sox to a 7-1 triumph over the Boston Red Sox. Nellie Fox, Chicago's all-star second baseman set a record by playing his 478th consecutive game at the position.

The Chicago second sacker cracked a record set 40 years ago by the late Eddie Collins, a member of the Hall of Fame. Donovan was in charge throughout as he struck out five and did not walk a Bostonian. Jensen Hits Homer Jensen lined a single into left In the second inning and Donovan retired the next eight batters before Jensen bashed his four-bagger high over the wall and screen in left. The next ten Red Sox batters went out in order before Jim Piersall beat out a bunt. Ted Williams's two-out single in the ninth was thff other Boston hit.

The victory stretched the run-nerup White Sox margin over third place to three games. Boston played sloppy ball, committing three errors. The first Chicago run came in the opening inning when Lou Aparicio sliced a triple to the right-field corner and scored on a passed ball. Donovan walked in the third, moved to second when Sammy White, trying to trap him off first, threw the ball into right. The Chicago pitcher took third on an infield out and scored on Fox's single.

Rivera Belts Homer-Jim Rivera homered into the Red Sox bull pen off Jim Pier-say's glove with a mate aboard in the seventh. A cluster of three hits', two Boston errors and a sacrifice accounted for the other three Chicago runs in the eighth. The victory was Donovan's tenth, against eleven defeats, and his third, compared to two losses, against Boston. Frank Sullivan, Boston- starter, was the loser. He now is 8-7 for the season.

19 () The St. Louis Cardinals fashioned a 5-to-4 victory over the Philadelphia Phillies tonight out of home runs by Stan Musial, Gene Freese and Hobie Landrith. Landrith's homer with none on in the eighth furnished the 4-4 tiebreaker but Freese's well-hit ball with Irv Noren on base by a walk in the seventh brought the Cards out of a 4-2 deficit. Stan Musial took over the bat ting lead from Richie Ashburn, of the Phils. Musial had three safeties his first three times at bat, then was hit by a pitched ball.

Before the game he had a .341 average and Ashburn had .343. Ashburn walked once, got a bouncing single and went hit- less three times at the plate.

Interclub tournament, L'Hir- ondelle. 11 A.M. Clifton Park Open, 6 P.M. ROY HARRIS, a school teacher from the inelegant town of Cut Shoot, Texas, is drawing wide acclaim for his rare display of intestinal fortitude. Roy was battered into a bloody mess by Floyd Patterson, who banged him at will through twelve rounds of onesided fighting Monday night at Los Angeles.

As a rule the use of the word gameness in describing the battle waged by a loser is a sucker line. It was just that Monday night when Harris, a mere ring novice, was floored four times and battered into such a help less state his handlers cried "quits." There was no excuse for such a one-sided fight. It followed the expected pattern a boy ing to do a man's work. ttt 50 To 1 ODDS of 5 and 6 to 1 were quoted against Harris on the eve of the bout. Those figures were far too modest.

They should have been 50 to 1, and no takers. Actually it was an "out" fight. I can't see where Patterson gab id any prestige. Beating on Harris was liking punching the big bag in a gymnasium. In his last three title fights Patterson has beaten Hurricane Jackson, an amateur by the name of and Harris.

All three rolled into one wouldn't make one real fighter. The low estate into which the heavyweight ranks has fallen is not Patterson's fault. There are no real heavyweight fighters around, and Floyd, who was great as an amateur and equally impressive in his early professional bouts should be champion for a long time to come. Rocky Marciano retired as the undefeated heavyweight title-holder because of the lack of legitimate opponents. Loses Inleres't A LACK of suitable opponents causes a champion to lose interest in the sport.

No fighter enjoys a long siege of training, yet he dare not go into the ring unless he is in tiptop shape. After a onesided victory such Giauts Nip Reds In Tenth, 4-3 San Francisco, Aug. 19 (JP) The San Francisco Giants defeated Cincinnati, 4 to 3, today on the flve-hit pitching of Johnny Antonelli and a tenth inning triple by Willie Kirkland that scored Orlando Cepeda. Cepeda had reached first on an error by Second Baseman Johnny Temple. Temple and First Baseman Dee Fondy both raced for Orlando's high popup.

As the ball hit Temple's glove, they collided and the ball fell to the ground allowing Cepeda to make first. Antonelli was superb until the ninth when Pete Whisenant cracked his seventh homer of the year with Jerry Lynch on base to tie the score at 3-3. A crowd of 9,022 saw the Giants finally get to their old nemesis. Bob Purkey. He had beaten them three times this year and Antonelli twice.

He had allowed the Giants only one run in 51 innings. But Antonelli homered in the third and the Giants stayed ahead until the fateful ninth. Antonelli's homer was the first hit by a major league pitcher in the San Francisco ball park. Purkey was lifted for a pinch- hitter in the seventh after giving up three runs, eight hits and striking out only two. Hal Jeff- oat came on in the tenth, pitched to Cepeda and Kirkland and took the loss, his eighth against 5 victories.

The Washington team, with an 11-0 mark this season, meets Greenbelt, the Maryland champ, which brings a 17-2 mark into the tournament. This game will be the windup of a dowble-header which pits' Dur- ney Post, of Wilmington, with a 15-3 mark against Weir-ton. W.Va., 14-3, In the opener at 12 noon. over the inexperienced Texan a champion wonders why he put so much unnecessary effort into preparation for the affair. It adds up to weeks of hard work and privation.

Beating on sparring partners, road work and shorn of family life for weeks become a bore. r-- Where To Go PATTERSON evidently won ders where the powers-that-be in boxing will be able to dig up the next opponent. At the moment it seems that he has no place to go. Patter son by this time has a neat nest egg, and won't have fight for sometime to come to put bread and butter on his table. Harris has indicated he would like to get another crack at the championship, but I doubt if anyone will take him seriously unless he goes out and earns a reputation.

He is far from being a worthy challenger, and a return match wculd not draw flies. -ft This An' That THE ORIOLES can sympathize this morning with Roy Harris. Just as they turned their sights on a first division berth the Athletics last night gave them a double knockout. The A's have moved within a game and a half of the Birds and the Senators, on the strength of last night's triumph over the Tigers are not too far distant. ft-- The Orioles played drab ball last night and now trail the Athletics two games to one in the current series.

They'll have to hustle more tonight to gain an even split. Johnny Antonelli, left-hander of the Giants, denies he's super stitious, but the fact remains he refuses to shave on days he is scheduled to pitch. tr Do You Know That WILLY MIRANDA holds the record for making the most hits in a Hall of Fame game at Cooperstown? Slugger Miranda made four hits while playing for the Yankees in 1954. Tribe Homers Top Yanks, 8-6 Continued-from 1st Sport Page a 2-to-0 lead before Ford had retired a man. Dick Brown's inside-the-park home run a routine line drive that hopped over Norm Sie- bern's head in left field made it 3-to-0 in the second.

Yanks Tie It Up The Yankees tied it with two out in the third with a pair of walks and successive ground rule doubles by Mickey Mantle and Yogi Berra. McLish then walked in the lead run after two errors and a walk had loaded the bases in the fourth. Mossi came on at that point and got Tony Kubek to hit into a force out, but two runs scored on the play when Billy Moran's double-play try was wna. Singles by Moran and Minnie Minoso and Colavito's two- out homer squared it in the fifth against Duke Maas. Wertz's clincher came after Colavito had walked with two out in the seventh.

Colavito also was a fielding hero for the Tribe, getting oft an on-the-tly peg that nailed Elston Howard at the plate as he tried to score from second on Siebern's single in the fifth. The victory hoisted the In dians, who had lost three in a row, past Baltimore into fifth place, just .004 percentage points shy of fourth-place De troit.
