Dodgers Beat Braves in Only Game Monday
By Ralph Roden ZAP SPORTS WRITER

BIooklyn's ability to defeat the Boston Braves and the Philadelphia Fhillies with almost monotonous regularity continues and manager Leo Durccher has the knack of yanking @ faltering moundsman at the right time.
 With l0l games under their belt, the Brooks enjoy 2l2 game mar gin over the second place St. Louis Cardinals in the National League but cnly 33 complete games have been turned in by the Dodger hurling crew, 26 of them victories.
 In 68 Dodger contests, Durocher employed POI hurlers in bagging 36 victories and losing 32. Little Vic LOnbardi leads the Dodger hurlers in turning in complete games, with II.
 The Dodgers pulled another game cut of the fire last night as they trimmed the Braves, "A before a total paid attendance of 41,645, the largest at Braves Field in more than 13 years.
 Trailing 3-1 in the fourth, the Dodgers surged ahead in the fifth by scoring five runs on a three run homer by Pee Wee Reese.
 Rookie southpaw Joe Hatten started for the Dodgers but lasted less than three innings. Hank Behrman and Ralph Branca finish ed up, allowing only one run. Bran ca received credit for the win.
 Mort Cooper began for Boston but blew up in the fifth.
 In an exhibition contest at New York, the Giants dropped a 3-2 de- cision to the New York Yankees and also lost the services of John- ny Mize, the senior loops top home run hitter, for two to three weeks, Mize suffered a fractured right hand when struck by a pitched ball by Joe Page in the first in ming.
 No games were scheduled in the American League.

 CHINA AREA
No Orders for Withdrawal Have Been Received
 by Commander

Tiantsin, Aug. 6.-The command CT of U. S. Marines in China said flatly today no orders have been given to prepare for their egaoua- ten and indicated there had teen some strengthening at cne point since the bloody clash with Chinese Communists southeast of Pciplne July 29.
 Questioned about persistent. un- confirmed rumors in the Chinese press that President Truman had instructed General Marshall to prepare plans for withdrawal of tke Marines, Maj. Gen. Keller E. Rock ey told the Associated Press in an interview it was the first time he even had heard of it.
 General Rockey described tie cur rent situation in the Tientsin Peiping sector as serious" but ex- pressed belief that the Marines could handle any developments. The Marines, whose withdrawal from China has been demanded by the Communists. are guarding Ma rine and Navy property, the rail line to Chinwangtao, the highway to Peiping and strategic bridges.
 Rockey indicated that the num- Der of Marines stationed in the Tientsin area is declining but that some redeploymant and strengthen ing has been made necessary by tie July 29 fracas in which four Marines and 12 Chinese were kill ed.
 A finding team from Peiping executive headquarters opened an official investigation today to de- termine whether the incident was a Communist ambush, as charged by the Marines, or an attack in conjunction with Chinese. govern ment forces as charged by the Communists.
 Vehicles driving frcm Tienstin to the Air Wing Base about 14 miles from the city. must have two armed personnel on all trips
 In Ranking, Chinese Commun- ists today formally protested as an outrage" Fridays bombing of the Communist headquarters city of Ye- nan by government fliers while truce negotiations are in progress and served notice that the Ccal- munists reserved the right to re- ject decisions on China at the Paris peace conference.
