As the Angels moved 152 games ahead with only 13 to play. Bolger drove in three runs with two singles and a double. The Angels put the game out of Seattle's reach in the third inning with a pair of runs on singles by Gale Wade, Steve Bilko, George Freese and Bob Speake.

Second place Seattle was the 1955 champ. Portland kept its l'i game margin over fourth place Hollywood by thumping Vancouver, 14-7, while the Stars were dropping San Diego. 7-1. Sacramento stayed half a game back of Hollywood by drubbing San Francisco. 11-3.

Portland racked up three-run outbursts in the first and second innings and then sent seven men galloping over the plate in the fourth as Frank Carswell belted a homer.

The amazing Redlegs solidified their hold on all five honors last night by handing the front-running Milwaukee Braves a stunning 4-2 defeat in 10 innings, made possible by Robinson's 37th home run and Freeman's 30th victory-bringing relief job.

The Reds' brilliant fireman received credit for his 12th victory. He has saved 13 other games for Cincinnati. The Reds' triumph, their sec ond in a row over Milwaukee after a seemingly dlsastcrous open ing game cleleat in Monday double-header, boosted Tebbetts' never-say-die outfit into second place, a half game ahead of Brooklyn and 2a lengths behind the Braves. It marked the 10th consecutive overtime triumph for the rampag ing Redlegs, who have fought back into contention after having been counted out more times than a glass-chinned fighter.

Chicago's third place Wlilte Sox climbed to within two games of the Tribe by whipping Detroit 11- 4 and Boston needed a 12th-inning home run by Ted Lepcio to nip Washington 7-6. Baltimore and New York had a day off. Freeman made his 49th mound appearance for Cincinnati in the ninth with the score tied 2-2, and gave up a leadoff double to rookie Earl Hersh, playing in his first major league game. But he pitched out of the jam by purposely walking Joe Adcock, getting Bobby Thomson to ground into a double play and retiring Bill Bruton on a grounder.

Ernie Johnson was on mound for Milwaukee in the 10th when Koblnson rocked him with a home run to bring the flashy outfielder to within one of Wally Berger's rookie homer record of 38. Singles by ed Kluszcwskl, Wally Post and Ed Bailey added an Insurance run. Max Surkont, suported by a 12- hit attack, notched his second victory since joining the Giants two weeks ago with a six-hitter against the Phils. A four-run ninth finished off loser Harvey Haddix.

Both Cheney and Jim Banek showed well at the fullback slot and little Tony Costa continues to be the pepper pot of the squad. Today's workout should give the coaches a much better chance to appraise the material. OLYMPIC REINSTATEMENT APPEAL DENIED Chicago W). Olympic wrestling champion William T.

Stanford Indian football coach Chuck Taylor has an idea for two platooning his quarterbacks. The way he'd work it would be legal under the limited substitution rule which went into effect in 1953 and eliminated the wholesale substituting of offensive and defensive teams. It can be done because Chuck has three lettermen available for quarterback duty John Brodie, first string last year and the Pacific Coast conference total offense leader, Jack Douglas and Jack Taylor. The way they stack up Brodie rates as the best passer, Douglas the next best and Taylor excels in running and on defense. So, figures Coach Taylor, he could start Brodie and leave him in until the need arose for the best defensive man.

Then in would go quarterback Taylor with Douglas ready to take over the next series of offensive plays. Brodie would be set for duty the succeeding quarter. Last season, alternating with the now graduated Jerry Gustaf-son, Brodie was fourth in the ration in forward passing with 76 completed out of 133 throws for 1024 yards and 5 touchdowns. Only seven of his tosses fell into enemy hands. Standing 6 feet 1 and weighing 190, thesenior signal caller physically fits the requirements for the Stanford formation.

Douglas, a junior, can't match Brodie in the long passing department but runs better. Taylor, a halfback last season, moved to quarterback when both Brodie and Douglas missed much of the spring practice. The former was a member of the Stanford golf team and the latter played No. 1 on the tennis squad. Many observers have installed the Indians as the PCC favorite this fall and passing is counted on to fulfill the predictions.

"I'd like to go more and more on passing," the 36j ear-old coach observed. "It's more interesting or the players and the spectators alike. "I don't think football has scratched the surface of the passing game. Last season we averaged 24 passes per game and I see no reason why a team can't throw 30 to 35. "The problem is the elimination of interceptions.

Even at that, an interception usually is less dangerous than a lost fumble. You lose the ball at the line of scrimmage or behind it when a runner fumbles, but a pass interception usually comes 10 or more yards downfield. "In all the PCC schools last season, only one pass interception was run back for a touchdown." Richardson Can Prevent Aussie Tourney Sweep Forest Hills, N. Y.

Knollwod's rough has been allowed to grow. With an unusual amount of rain recently, it has become a thickly matted night mare ot grass so deep and shaggy that a player will have difficulty finding his ball, let alone playing it out.

The rough has been allowed to encroach upon the fairways, narrowing them to 33-38 yards in width. The thick grass also makes a frightening fringe at the greens. Chip shots from these aprons will be especially hazardous. The course is conscientiously trapped. Many of its fairways are pockmarked with sand requiring precise tee shots to keep out of trouble.

Traps yawn around the front and sides of most greens, making approach shots a premium of accuracy. But, mainly, it Is the monstrous rough that will cause the most trouble. It virtually will cost a stroke to get into it. A straight long-ball hitter, who also has a strong putting game should find frequently windswept Knollwood to his liking. Wasted shots can be made up on the remarkably true greens.

There is little trickery on the putting surfaces and very few rolls that would demand snaky putts. The greens are among the best conditioned in the Chicago district.

His offensive starting unit pushed five touchdowns over the red-shirted defensive unit, plus making numerous gains. An all-out scrimmage is slated again this afternoon at 3:30. Siemering refused to pick out any individuals for praise though he did say Jack Knight ran well.

Defensive backfield coach Brad Lynn claimed the defense has a long way to catch up with the offense. "Only Tom Curtiss seemed to stand out," was his comment. Curtiss, a senior tackle, turned in a sterling performance and some shattering tackles. Sideline observers watched with glee as Siemering's famed offensive circus wheeled and dealed with finesse. There were rough spots but it was an impressive for a first scrimmage.
