KYLE ond place with dizzying speed and left the New York Yankees in a dangerously exposed position. I here may be no escape for the Yankees. With the race so nearlv over, thev may be trapped and have to surrender to the unpleasant prospect of taking on the Dodgers in the benes.

It should be remembered, though, that Casev Stengel of the Yankees is a wilv character, given to double-talk and strange strategic moves. It might be unwise to think the Yankees have exhausted all their tricks. The White Sox are pretty safe from anv last minute heroics which would force them to accept the pennant. But the Indians had best beware. The- Yankees may yet, by some coldly-planned subterfuge, find a way to reverse their position.

In trying to analyze the possibilities, it must be remembered that the Yankees are old, old hands at winning pennants. Thev lost I last year, but this was a different situation. The American League clubs were anxious to get at the Giants, who were mistakenly diagnosed as easy prey in the postseason extravaganza. Thus the Yankees haven't been called upon in a long time to exhibit a talent for avoiding a World Series clash and this very easily could be their downfall this week. They're pretty rusty at kissing off a pennant when it's just within reach and it's quite possible the Chisox and Indians got such an unexpected jump on the Yanks that they're going to be stuck with the bloomin' thing.

Arthur Beats Indians, 13-7 Dale Maycrost scored two touchdowns and ran across an extra point last night at Moweaqua, to lead Arthur to a victory over Mo-weaqua's Indians, 13-7. Maycrost scored from 10 yards out in the first quarter and ran across the extra point to tie the game at 7-7 and then plunged four vards for another earlv in the fourth period. Gary Trulock was the running star for Moweaqua and scored its lone toucnaown on a 81 vard run. Bill Newman kicked the extra point. It was Moweaqua 's opening game and despite the loss its line was credited with a fine performance.

Arthur is now 1-1 for the season after losing its opener to Lovington. EVASHEVSKI CHANGES LINEUP AT IOWA Iowa City, Iowa, Sept. 19 (AP) Coach Forest Evashevski, concerned about the slov development of the University of Iowa football squad, todav announced further changes in his No. 1 lineup. Frank Bloomquist, a 207-pound sophomore, moved up from second string right guard to first team left tackle and veteran Jim Freeman took over the right end post from Frank Rigney.

Evashevski had Charles Pierce, 207-pound sophomore ex-Marine, at center ahead of. veterans IN'or-man Six and Don Suchy and the injured sophomore Bui Van Buren. By Whitney Martin OP The Associated Press New York, Sept. 19 We will string along with Heavyweight Champion Rocky Marciano in his bout with Archie Moore at Yankee Stadium Tuesday night. We like Marciano to win by a knockout, in say, 10 rounds or less, chiefly because as his manager, Al Weill, says, they'd have to put Rocky up against a wall and pepper him with a machine gun to take his title away from him.

Strength, driving power, determination, and ability to take a punch and hit with tremendous force are in the champion's favor. Those factors, and comparative youth. Superior boxing skill, ring wisdom, adaptability and sharp, pin-point punching are in the challenger's favor. But there is doubt that Moore is a better boxer than Ezzard Charles, and Marciano outpointed him in Is rounds and knocked him out in the second fight. Charles defeated Moore three times.

And there is doubt that he can hit harder than Jersey Joe Wal RECORDS FALL Trotters Crack Three World Marks At Delaware Track Delaware, Ohio, Sept. 19 (AP) Gratis Hanover, fast 2-year-old filly, broke two world's trotting Tecords, and Dale Adam, fleet 4-year-old gelding, cracked a third today at Delaware Fairgrounds. The filly, driven by Sanders Russell, won the $8,700 breed er stake event, stepping ott a new two-heat record of 4:12 3-5 for a half-mile track to top the old mark of 4:14 1-5 set in 1953 by Stenographer. The 2-year-old, owned by R. J.

Logue of Sydney, Nova Scotia, trotted her second heat mile in 2:05 3-5, clipping one second from the previous record Once Over It may not be exactly prudent to rule a team out of a pennant race until there is mathematical proof that all isover, still, it seems reasonably safe to suggest at this date that the Cleveland Indians and Chicago White Sox have won the bitter three-cornered battle to avoid plaving the Brooklyn Dodgers in the World Series. The White Sox were the first to clinch the safety of a box seat for the Series. They stopped dillydallying around with the issue when they resolutely blew an important series to the Orioles and then carried on stoutly against the Athletics, and managed to all but eliminate themselves for certain. The Pale Hose were honest and above-board in their gallant bid to be the first to flee safely from the booming bats of the Dodgers. When the time came to make up their minds which way to go, they seized the initiative and with forth right step, marched steadily to the safety of third place.

The Indians, the rascals, plaved it cute and inserted an element of suspense. As defending American League champions, they made decided feint in the direction of the pennant and had everybody about convinced they were going to go all the way. lhis might have been called a calculated risk for they came tol erably close to getting themselves in a spot from which there was no escape. But they made a lightning move, catching their foe unaware, and it was as pretty a piece of strategy as vou ever did see. With breath-taking rapidity," the Indians lost three games to the Tigers.

Philadelphia's Richie Ashburn has all but clinched the National League title, while Al Kaline of Detroit has the junior circuit championship all wrapped up. Ashburn is hitting .341 and holds an 18-point lead over runnerup Roy Campanella of Brooklyn. Kaline, hitting .340, is 22 points ahead of his nearest pursuer, Kansas City's Vic Power.

Records include games through Sunday. Ashburn went 6-for-14 last week and gained three points. Campanella's average dropped four points to .323 and Stan Musial of the Cards gained seven points to move into third in the National League with .318. Kaline's average failed to change as he collected 6-for-18. Power boosted his average six points to .318 in advancing from a second-place tie a week ago.

Detroit's Harvev Kuenn- and Chicago's George Kell are tied for third at .308. Willie Mavs of the Giants slugged five homers to overtake L-incmnati i ed Kluszewski in the National League home run race, 48-46, while Dodger Duke Snider has the most RBI's, 134. The Yanks' Mickey Mantle is the AL home run leader with 37 and Boston's Jackie Jensen is tops in runs batted in with 113. ILLINI IN GOOD SHAPE FOR CALIFORNIA GAME Champaign, 111. Sept.

MICHIGAN LOSES STAR END ON BACK INJURY Ann Arbor, Mich.

Sept. 19 (AP) End Tom Maentz has been lost to the University of Michigan football team tor at least six weeks because of a back injury. University doctors said he may be out for the entire season with a cracked vertebra suffered in Sat urday's scrimmage. Maentz' loss was a shattering blow to Michigan's hopes for the Big Ten title, a Rose Bowl bid and perhaps even a national cham pionship. Frank Lane Planning to Leave Chisox Chicago, Sept.

19 (AP) Frank Lane, dealmaking dvn-amo of the Chicago hite Sox, plans to leave the club as the result of a "breach with Chuck Comiskev that cannot be healed." "I have put up with a lot of indignities from Chuck, in private, and Tecentlv, in public," the 59-vear-old general manager told The Associated Press todav. "I want to leave, and I intend to leave." The feud between Lane and voung Comiskev, vice president and namesake of the club's founder, has been one of long standing- The heir-apparent of the baseball empire will be 30 in November and receive another block of stock. Proud of his heritage, Chuck had initiated a sort of tug-o'-war authority with Lane. But Chuck's mother, Mrs. Grace Comiskev, president, always had assured Lane that he was general manager and was running the show.

The final break with Chuck came when Lane recently ms called to New York and fined $500 by Ford Frick, baseball commissioner, for "conduct unbecoming a major league execu- tive. The explosive Lane allegedly was profane when he went to the box of Will Harndgc, American League president, at Comiskev Park during a game and blasted umpiring. Chuck reportedly backed up Frick in leveling the fine and held Lane up to ridicule. Probably within the next two or three days Lane will meet with resignation. 'He has five the Lximiskevs and tender rus years to go on his current contract, which, with a base pay and a gate percentage agreement, is estimated to be worth about $50,000 annually.

"I don't believe Mrs. Comiskev or any other club executive, would, want an employe to remain if he did not desire to do so," taid Lane. Mrs. Comiskey may or may not insist that Lane fulfill the contract. Under his guidance the last seven vears, the Sox have netted more than 2Vi million dollars in profits and at least doubled the value of the franchise.

The St. Louis Cardinals have been mentioned most prominently among three or four clubs want-oi ins Lane. Lindsay Rated Top Threat in Trans-Miss Golf Oklahoma City, Sept. 19 (AP) Amid the frettings about prospects of a rough battle with par, contestants in the women's Trans-Mississippi Golf silver anniversary tournament took final practice licks today in preparation for Tuesday's 18-hole qualifying rounds. The starting field in the week-long amateur classic numbers 179 players, but only 32 will contest for the championship over the 370-vard Twin Hills Country Club course.

Six former champions are in the field but only four are listed as major threats for the title. Heading the list of the former champions is Polly Riley, the affable Texan from Fort Worth who will be gunning for her third championship to become the second three time winner of the event. Chief contenders include Mar-jorie Lindsay of Decatur, 111., the 1950 titlist; Mary Ann Downing of Baltimore, the 1951 kingpin, and Edean Anderson Ihlanfeldt, of Seattle, the 1953 inner. Grace DeMoss Smith of Miami, will come in for her share of support on the basis of past performance in the tournament. She was runner-up in 1950 and medalist in 1931 with a record-equalling 72.

Mrs. Russell C. Mann, of Omaha, and Mrs. E. S.

"Patti" Blanton of Enid, are the other former champions, but their trophy winning endeavors came in the earliec days of competition. Track Postpones Improvement! Salem, N. Sept. 19 (AP) Rockingham. Park has post poned an $850,000 improvement program, scheduled to start next month, because of a slump in business.

Managing Director Lou Smith said today. Archie Moore cott, who landed his best punches for 12 rounds, only to be knocked out by the Rock in the 13th, and who lasted less than a round in their second fight. However, you could not see Ar chie at his training camp, and listen to him, without being impressed. If ever a man gave every indication of supreme confidence it was the highly-articulate man from Toledo, San Diego and way points. He has a superb physique for a fighter with massive, smooth- muscle arms, heavy, sloping shoulders and trim legs.

We are well aware that Moore, if his brave talk doesn't hide an apprehension, could step out there and knock down the champion. Perhaps to stay. The challenger can punch. We aren't overlooking the possibility he might go into his shell, retreat and counter punch, and slash up Rocky enough to warrant the bout being stopped, or take a bloody 1 5-round decision. Those are possibilities, and if they weren't present there would be no sense in staging the contest.

Promoter Jim Norris, president of the International Boxing Club, wauhed the latest weather reports, which predicted a clearing Tues- day morning. If the fight should be postponed, it would go on Wednesday night.

With the Yankees on the road, Yankee Stadium is available the rest of the week. The odds favoring Marciano lengthened a bit to 3Vi-l as fight time (9:30 p. m. CDT) approached.

Flaaoole Sitter In Milwaukee Gives Up Perch Milwaukee, Sept. 19 (AP) Bill Sherwood, left up in the air for 89 days by the Milwaukee Braves, came down today from the flagpole where he'd perched since Tune 23. As part of a paid publicitv stunt for a shopping district, Sherwood had promised to remain aloft until the Braves won seven games in a row. That possibility vanished Saturday when the Braves lost and had only rames left to plav.

On touching ground amidst a crowd of about 1.000 who gathered in the rain, Sherwood said he felt all right, "a little shakv. that's all." He said the Braves still were his favorite baseball players." Iowa State Gets Day Off Ames, Iowa Sept. 19 (AP) Coach Vince DiFrancesca gave the Iowa State College Cyclones a dav off today but promised un- va-i-r tn inr fir" i. nw the I Washington, (AP) The imminent arrival of Hurricane lone, forced postponement of tonight's scheduled game between the pennant-hopeful New York Yankees and the Washington Senators.

A dav and night doubleheader was scheduled for Tuesday, beginning at 1 and 7 p. m. CDT, after the Weather Bureau forecast that Washington would set heavy rains this evening. The rain was expected to end early Tuesday. If the games were played, however, and the Yankees take them both, the World Series crowd might as well start lining up outside Yankee Stadium.

The New Yorkers hold a two game lead over the fading Cleve- land Indians, but have lost three less games. Anv combination of five New York victories and Cleveland defeats would give the Yankees the American League championship. Washington, capable of plaving good baseball, won their season series with the Indians, 13-9. Washington, however, is down to the Yankees, 13-6. The hurricane could confound the schedule.

If Tuesday's games are washed out, the Yanks and Senators would be rescheduled for a twilight-night affair Wednesday with a makeup game Thursdav. The original schedule called for single night games Monday night, Tuesday and Wednesday. Rain Wednesday or Thursdav would eliminate some of the Yankees-Senators games altogether un less they become critical in the pennant race. Under a new league rule, thev would be plaved off next Mondav after the close of the regular season. Thus, if neither New York nor Cleveland had clinched the pennant mathematically at the close of the season Sunday, the Yankees and Senators would take part in a junior grade playoff.

Lopez Promises Cleveland Will Fight to Finish Cleveland, Sept. 19 (AP) Al Lopez promised today his Cleveland Indians will put up a fight to the finish in the Ameri can League pennant race until their elimination becomes a mathematical certainty. The quiet skipper who Sunday was left stunned and speechless after the Indians' fourth successive loss that dropped them two full games behind the pace setting New York Yankees, was in a more talkative mood today. "Before yesterday's game I S3id we needed six straight to win the pennant," he recalled. "Now I sav we need five straight to finish in a tie.

I'm hoping the Yankees lose at least three. W'e lost four in a row, why can't they lose three? In the remaining five games, two are in Chicago Tuesday and Wednesday and three in Detroit. "I have been wracking my brain trying to put the finger on the reason for our collapse. I can come to onlv one conclusion. Our hitters simply let us down.

It was a case of the fellows going into a batting slump at the worst possible time." one of the touchdowns last Friday in the 19-14 loss to Moose-heart.

Banks Breaks Grand Slam Homer Record St. Louis, Sept. 19 (AP) Rallying against a five-run defi cit that included Ernie Banks' rec ord-setting fifth grand slam homer of the season, the St. Louis Cardinals tonight defeated the Chicago Cubs, 6-5, on Rip Repulski's home run in the 12th inning with two out, and two strikes on him. Banks 44th homer broke a record of four in one season held bv 10 other players, including Babel Kuth.

In contrast, the Cardinals tied the score on a three-run homer by Harry Elliott, the first of his major league career. The Redbirds started on the road back from a 5-0 deficit in the seventh on run-scoring singles by Alex Grammas and Ken Boyer. Elliott's game tying homer came after Stan Musial and Repul-ski had opened the eighth with singles. CHICAGO Fondv, 1 Baker, 2h Wade, cf Banks, ss Speake. If Baumhohz.
