INDIANAPOLIS—Veteran Paul Russo set a new speed
standard at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Wednesday by
humming around the oval at better than 146 miles an hour in
traffic. The official one-lap mark, set last year by the late
Jack McGrath, is 143.79 miles an hour, although several
drivers have topped this in current practice sessions.

CHICAGO—The resurging Chicago White Sox grabbed
their sixth straight victory as pitcher Dick Donovan scatter
ed six Washington hits and slammed a bases-loaded single for
two runs in a 3-1 conquest of the Senators.
JERSEY CITY—The Brooklyn Dodgers made the most
of continued charity from the St. Louis Cardinals—scoring
five unearned runs in the fourth inning—to win their sixth
straight and defeat the Redbirds 5-3 tonight to throw the
National League race into a virtual three-way tie for first
place. /

the 25-man roster limit by the mid
night deadline.
It "was the second trade in six
days by the Cards, with Genei-al
Manager Frank Trader Lane jug
gling 10 players in the transactions.
The two-for-one swap left the
Cards a man under their 26-player
limit, which makes allowances for
returned serviceman Wilmer Vin
egar Bend Mizell. Earlier in the
day, St. Louis pitcher Goi'don Jones
was sent to Omaha of the American
Assn, on 24-hour recall.
The Cleveland Indians got down
to their limit by trading catcher
Hank Foiles to Pittsburgh for fh’st
baseman Pi’eston Ward, sending
catcher Earl Averill and infielder
Bobby Young to Indianapolis of
the American Assn, and selling
pitcher Jose Santiago to Kansas
City. Averill was optioned, Young
sold outright.
KANSAS CITY was within the
roster limit with the purchase of
Santiago after giving veteran El
mer Valo his release and optioning
pitchers Arnie Portocarrero to Bir
mingham of the Southern Assn.,
Bill Harrington to San Diego of the
Pacific Coast League and Aii: Cec-
carelli to Columbus of the Inter
national League while selling
catcher Joe Astroth to San Diego.
Outfielder Ron Northey was op
tioned to Indianapolis and catcher
Earl Battey and pitcher Bill Fisch
er were sent to Toronto of the
International League, all on 24
hour recall, by the Chicago White
Sox to get down to their limit. The
Sox have to chuck a man by Satur
day, however, when infielder Sam
Esposito comes off the national
defense service list.
THE DETROIT TIGERS made
the limit by optioning ex-bonus in
fielder Reno Bertoia to Charleston
of the American Assn. They also
sold catcher Walt Streuli and pitch
er Bud Black outright to Charles
ton.
In the National, the Brooklyn
Dodgers beat the deadline by ship
ping sore-arm southpaw Karl
Spooner to St. Paul of the Ameri
can Assn., subject to immediate re
call.
Jimmy Braddock, ex-heavy
weight champion, is beginning to
get the knack of bowling. He’s in
the 125 class. Ex-light heavy
weight ruler Gus Lesnevich often
bowls 200.
