Campanella is the runnerup with

With Yanks in Mind;
MATS Get Slight Break
By Burton Hawkins
Sior Staff Correspondent

CLEVELAND. June 9.-The
American League pennant race
could be all but settled this
week If the Mats get tough with
Cleveland. starting tonight, and
the Yankees continue to maui
the Indians in their four-game
series over the week end.
Already boasting a 51a-game
margin over the second place
Indians, New York naturally
will be pulling for the Mats to
nudge Cleveland farther in the
background in a three-game set
that gets under way tonight
with Johnny Schmitz opposing
Bob Lemon on the mound.
The high-riding Yankees may
kill of virtually all interest in
the campaign without the aid
of the Mats. If they sweep four
games from the Indians. the
Yankees lead will be regarded as
insurmountable in most quarters,
and this is bound to be destruc-
tive at the gate.
YankS Take on Tigers.
The Yankees meet downtrod-
den Detroit tonight while Cleve-
land and the third-place Mats
go at each others throats. Both
clubs have been hot, with the
Indians winning seven of eight
and the Mats capturing six of
eight, but they've lost ground to
New York, victorious in IL
straight games.
Washington gets a slight break
because Manager AL Lopez of the
Indians is making his pitching
plans with New York in mind.
The Mats thus will be confronted
with Lemon tonight. Mike Gar
cia tomorrow night and q sec
ond-stringer Thursday. Early
Wynn and Bob Feller are due to
face the Yankees in the first two
games of the following series,
with Lemon and Garcia slated
to pitch against New York in a
double-header Sunday.
Manager Bucky Harris plans
to follow Schmitz with Sonny
Dixon and possibly Julio Moreno.
with no apologies for any of
them. Schn1itz has given the
Mats highly creditable perform
ances in both his starts since
being obtained from the Yam
KEGS, Dixon has permitted only
two runs in his last two starts
and Moreno. with a 80 record,
holds a A lifetime mark against
the Indians.
1S Games Left With Leaders.
The Mats are hoping to re-
main within radar range Of the
Yankees until they meet the
champions head-on, at which
time they'll strive to improve a
2-7 mark against the league
leaders.
I'VE have l3 games left with
the Yankees" Harris said today,
land they offer us a chance to
close ground. Well have to make
the most Of the opportunity"
The club has been heartened
by a concerted display of power
on, the present journey. The
Mats have slammed seven home
runs in eight games, with Wayne
Terwllliger. Jackie Jensen, Ed
Yost, Jim Busby and Mickey
Vernon getting in on the act.
There's rivalry on the club,
too. for leadership in runs batted
in. Clyde Vollmer is pacing
that department with 80, but
getting into contention are Bus
by with 80. Vernon with 81 and
Jensen with 80.
