New York, July 10-(UP)-There

playing with 17-year-olds and boys

along on high school basis.
The army ban against permitting
soldier-students to participate in in
tercollegiate sports struck many
schools hard and has been one Of
the principal reasons for many
throwing in the towel for the dura-
ton. But it has been a boon to 9TH
ers-because they now will dominate
their respective sections.
Dartmouth, with % members of

PIRATES, NOT

DODGER WORRY
BY PAUL SCHEFFELS
UNITED Press Staff Correspondent

New York, July 10 O.PD -
The Brooklyn Dodgers today had
almost forsaken the job of chasing
the front-running st. Louis Card
inals to ward off the challenge of
the Pittsburgh Pirates, for the
Dodgers are closer to the third
place Pirates-four games than
they are to the Cardinals, who lead
by 4 1-2.
The Dodgers beat the Pirates, 81
yesterday but only after 10-inning
struggle. They got four runs in
their half of the inning to win.
Billy Herman worked a perfect
squeeze bunt off Bill Brandt, Pitts
burgh pitcher, to send across the
winning run.
Mort Cooper racked up his 18th
triumph and his fourth shutout as
the Cardinals BANKED the Braves,
TO.
The Cubs came through with two
runs in the 18th to whip the Giants,
So. Ace Adams gave up the two
winning tallies in his 36th relief
dPPCdl dllCc vi GIlt year.
Six In Sixth
The Reds came from behind with
six runs in the sixth to wipe out a
Al handicap and defeat the Phillies
ia, in a night game.
In the American League, Detroit
bounced to within two games of the
idle, league-leading Yankees by
banking the AS 40 in twilight
game.
A perfect squeeze bunt by Gerry
Priddy in the 18th inning gave the
Senators 10 triumph over Cleve-
land. Priddy's blow pushed across
Bob Johnson who had walked and
reached third on Alex Kampouris
single.
Mike Chartak's ninth-inning
homer with the bases empty gave
the Browns a 5-4 decision over the
Red Sox in a night game.
