It was 16’s second win and 15’s fifth loss. Bobo Smith, the losing pitcher, set up an unenviable record as he walked 21 of the 38 men up to the plate.

Grissom again led the way for 14. His teammates got him eight runs in the second inning, and from then on he coasted in for the rest of the ball game. Dorm 14 says it plans to go through undefeated, and they may be right. It looks like the battle will be for second place. CV Drops 15 College View dropped 15 in a close 18-17 game for the last action of last week. League Standings Team Won Lost Dorm 14 6 0 College View 3 3 Dorm 16 24 Dorm 15 1 5 Indians, Braves May Heat Out New York* lent NEW YORK OP)—The Cleve land Tndians and the Milwaukee Braves, playing the hottest base ball in the majors, are threaten ing to break this big city’s strangle hold on the World Series. Not since 1948—six years ago when Cleveland edged these same Braves, then from Boston, 4 to 2— has there been an autumn classic without one of the three New York teams — Yankees, Dodgers and Giants. Generally, there have been two. The Yanks have been in on the last five series, winning them all. Brooklyn has been in three, the Giants and the Philadelphia Phil lies one each. Now Cleveland, playing at a ter rific pace to stand off mounting Yankee pressure, is leading the American League by three games. And the Milwaukee Braves, with a tremendous surge, are threatening to steal the National League flag right from under the noses of the Giants and Dodgers. Not counting Monday night’s Brooklyn game, the only one in the majors, the Braves were just three and one-half games off the pace. They are riding a nine-game win ning streak and brimming with confidence. There seems little to choose in the way of the remaining schedule. The championships will go to those teams able to put together a solid winning streak. The Yankees must be getting a bit discouraged trying to close the gap between them and Cleveland. They have a seven-game winning streak going yet Sunday lost a half-game to the pace setters. DYERS'FUR STOR: [mom 210 S.
