Two persons were hospitalized
Sunday and the car in which

suffered brain conclusion, cuts
about the head, and bruises,
while Miss Spencer received a
fractured ankle, cuts on the
knee and face, and bruises.
According to Patrolman w. E.
Williams, who Investigated the
accident, the car in which the
three were riding was travelling
along highway 264, headed to-
ward Stumpy Point, at an esti-
mated 80 miles an hour. The
driver apparently lost control
when he hit the bridge, and the
car hit the right-hand shoulder
after crossing the bridge. 1t then
skidded back across the highway
to the left-hand shoulder, turned
sideways, and skidded down the
road sideways for 1876 yards; it
then started rolling over and as
it rolled over the fourth time it
went into canal on the right
hand side of the roadway. Sted-
man and Miss Spencer were
thrown out but Gibbs remained
in the car which was more than
four feet under water. Help
quickly arrived and they were
able to rescue the unconscious
victim from the submerged car.

Face Buns In
Crucial Series;
Maglie ToStart
BY 20 coRRlcAN
Ap Sports Writer

The team that finished IS games
out of first place last season de-
tends its slim one-game hold on
the National League lead tonight
against the scrambling defending
champions.
And if Leo Durocher's New York
Giants can salvage one victory in
the three-game set with the Brook
lyn Dodgers, they still will be tied
for first place.
Meanwhile, in the American
League, the three teams fighting
for the lead - Cleveland, Chicago
and New York - all take on clubs
that they hope to use to fatten
their averages. The league-leading
Indians play Baltimore. the White
Sox, a game and a half back, en-
terrain the Detroit Tigers in a
double header; and the Yankees,
three games in arrears, 60 to
Boston.
This is an important set for both
the Giants and Brooks, and, as a
matter of fact, it is the first time
since Durocher has been at the
helm that the Polo Grounds crew
has started a home series with
the Dodgers in first place.
Ancient Sal (The Barber) Maybe
probably will start for the Giants
in the first game. His opponent
will be Don Newcombe. In the
other games, Durocher plans to
start Jim Hearn and perhaps
Ramon Monzant, a Venezuelan
from Minneapolis. Carl Erskine
and Russ Meyer will get the other
two assignments for the Brooks.
The Dodgers, the defending
champions, have had their ups and
downs, but Manger Walt Aston
thinks the team finally has jelled.
He won't come right out and say
so, but the feeling is that If the
club can sweep the series, the road
will be cleared for its third straight
flag.

NEW YORK R-The morale of
the Yankees is extremely high as
they return from a successful
swing through the West and pre-
pare to work On the bedraggled
Red Sox in Boston today. Those
OF their number who passed
through here seemed to be under
the impression that they had a
sixth straight championship as
good as sailed away.
This is strange attitude to take,
inasmuch as Casey Stengel's club
still is three full games back OF
the pace-setting Cleveland Indi-
ans, but then the Yankees can
never be judged by ordinary stan
dards. They only think they're 60
ing to have to work a little longer
and harder than usual this time to
win their World Series checks.
The two out of three they took
from the Indians over the weekend,
topping off their 81 Western jaunt,
apparently convinced the champs
that they still have what it takes
TO capture one more before Allie
Reynolds and Ed Lopat wear out.
Stengel says he would be in first
place now if his first baseman,
Joe Collins, had not been hurt early
In the season.
Also strangely, the champs came
back much more impressed with

TODAY'S
STOCK MARKET

NEW YORK, Up - The stock
market steered q steady course in
early trading today, with wide
price changes limited to q few
issues.
Du Point, which shot up 151a
points yesterday, was hit by profit
taking early in this mornings ses-
sion. It opened two points lower
at 141h and then dipped further
to 140la.
Fractional gains predominated in
the steels, motors and aircrafts.
The oils again sought lower levels.
The rails were mixed, with Santa

Up a point or more at one time

Brokers again suggested that it
may be time for the market to

detected signs that the Indians are
beginning to wheeze. One Of them,
who did not wish his name brlited

"The Sox hustled a lot harder
against US than the Indians did.
That (Paul) Richards has really
got those fellows steamed up
when they play US, anyway. The
Indians still look Like the Indians
to me. AL Rosen's a great hitter,
but he can't play first base. He's
hurting them. His reactions don't
seem as fast as when he was play
ing third"
Privately, still, the individual
Yanks claim that the only reason
the Tribe is on top now has been
its ability to fatten up consistently
at the expense Of the second.divi-
sion clubs. such as Ill over Bos-
ton and 90 over Washington. Man
ager AL Lopez, they point out, has
been able to do a lot of this with
his second-line pitchers while rest
ing his aces and saving them to
use against the Yanks and White
Sox.
BY comparison, the Yanks stood
only S-4 over Boston going into to-
days game and were trailing
Washington As. There is nothing
wrong about the method the In
dams are using, the Yankees has
ten to add. It's just that they like
to point out that the leaders have
not been able thus far to break even
with either the Yanks or the White
Sox, trailing them, respectively, Sc
