MagIie and Rhodes
Threaten Dodgers
Bid for Vengeance
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

The Dodgers, still smarting
over their three straight losses
at the Polo Grounds last week,
had two warnings today as they
prepared to meet the league
leading Giants in the opener of
another three-game series at
Ebbets Field. First Of all, Sal
Maglie will pitch for the Giants.
Secondly, Dusty Rhodes is still
hot.
Maglie. who has q DOT life

never been beaten at Ebbets
Field. He blanked the Dodgers
last Tuesday until Roy Cam
PAMELA hit a two-run homer
with two out in the ninth.

and two singles as the Giants
swept yesterdays twin bill with
the Pirates.
The Dodgers will start
Preacher Roe tonight, Don New

Erskine Thursday in a bid to
overtake the Giants, now three
and half games ahead.
Barrages Mark Fourth.
The fireworks at Brooklyn
comes on the heels of an up
roarious Independence Day pro-
gram in which many harried
pitchers ran for cover from
home-run barrages.
The day of double-headers re-
sounded with IS home-run

major league record for most

And some of them acted like
they were only half pitchers.

Sieyers Gives Harris
PerpIexing Problem;
Stobbs Comes Back
By Burton Hawkins

Roy Sievers, who hits emphat.
ically but not frequently, is CIV
ing the Senators one of their
m ore perplexing problems
whether to abandon hope or suf-
fer with him through prolonged
SlumpS.
Manager Bucky Harris is of the
theory that Sievers won't con-
quer his weaknesses sitting on
the bench. but there have been
differences Of opinion in the
front Office. Since neither Tom
Wright nor Clyde Volmer has
done much as Sewers occasional
replacement in leftf1eld. perhaps
Roy will be granted fulltime
privileges in the lineup.
SieverS, who slammed a bases
loaded homer of Ellis Kinder
yesterday to lead the Senators
to a I'll victory over Boston after
the Red Sox captured the open
er, 14-0, gave the 1854 Griffith
Stadium customers their second
look at a grand slam during the
afternoon. Ted Lepcio crashed q
homer with three on to highlight
and eight-run outburSt by the
Red Sox in the sixth lining of
the first game.
Boom or Bust.
Roy has been a figure to drive
any manager to distraction. He
has smashed across a creditable
50 runs and has blasted Is hom-
ers. but he's hitting .224 and
pops up and strikes out more
than anybody on the club. He
has had three hits in his last
l6 tries-two home runs and
a pop fly which plunked safely
in short rightf1eld for a single.
It's highly possible that Slew
erS ana Mickey Vernon will
break the club home run record
in the same season. Zeke Bon
ura set the team mark with %
in 1888. Roy and Mickey have
accumulated Is apiece with less
than half the season gone.
Roy would be sitting on the
bench If either Vollmer or
Wright had clicked, but they've
been unable to produce. Bucky
is all for giving Sievers a chance
to remedy the flaws in his bat
ting style. If he does. the Sena-
tors will have a slugger to rank
with the best in the league. On

detractors have gone so far as to
say that he has ruined the pitch
ing staff.
Unpopular with fans and
players alike, Stanky is hardly
in danger of being ousted, how
ever. because he is supposed to
be in solid with Owner Gussie
Busch.
'Stanky is staying only be-
cause Busch doesn't know base
