Ohio Power Co. during 1855
plans to spend $50, 1853, 900 in the
construction of new facilities and
in the modernization sof existing
equipment to keep ahead of the
ever-increasing demand for cleo
trio power.
Included in the new budget are
expenditures for enlarging and
improving power plants, trans

tons and lines, office and serv-
ice buildings and other facilities.

by Ohio Power in 1858. The new
figure brings the construction i'm
vestment made by Ohio Power
in the 14-year period since the
end of World War II to more
than $438-million.
Wei lover half of the $50 outlay
will go for expansion and i'm
provement of the company's gen
Grating stations. Major construc'
ton jobs in the power plant cat
egory include further work on the
45O, 900 -kilowatt generating uni
at Philip Sporn Plant, near New
Haven, w. Va, and Ohio Powers
Unit 3 at Hammer Plant, Cap
tina, w. Va, south of Wheeling
The budget calls for expendi
ture of $31, 300, 900 on the big uni
at Sporn Plant, a generating ma
chine which, when completed
will be 73 per cent larger thai
any other power-producing uni
in the world. Total cost of tn
addition to the existing 6OO, ,OOO-kV
plant is $50, 400, 900.

Redskins Put

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 6.-The
Redskins rockies face their
first big test in tonight's squad
game at nearby Arcadia. But
some veterans will have to work
overtime because the squad is
thin in spots.
Coach Mike Nixon and his
aides are looking for defensive
help in the backfield, and to-
nights results will give the
head coach a clue to a lineup
for the opening exhibition
game with the Forty-Niners at
San Francisco on August 16.
Nixon must determine
whether Tavern Torgeson can
step back into his old spot at
right wingback after a years
layoff. Torgy was supposed to
take over the middle position,
but Chuck Drazenovich looked
so good the coach had to leave
him there.

Crack Defense
Of White Sox
Showing Wear
By the Associated Press

At a time when they're
nearing the stretch in the
American League pennant race
and every move counts, the
White Sox's slips are showing,
Chicago's crack defense, a
factor that has Offset its lack
of bombing batsmen, is show
ing signs of wear. and it has
cost the White Sox in their
pennant scramble with the
Indians.
The White Sox are two
games in front of the Indians,
but it could have been a four
game margin except for two
losses to the Orioles in three
games since the second All-Star
break. They conclude the
series in Baltimore tonight.
Unearned runs cost the
White Sox victory Tuesday.
Last night Barry Latham shut
out the Orioles, 20, on three
hits in the first game of a
double-header, but five White
Sox errors and Early Wynn's
shaky pitching enabled the
Orioles to win the nightcap,
I7-1.
Tribe Keeps Pace
The Indians are grateful.
They handed the Senators their
18th straight loss, 7-3, at Grit
nth Stadium to keep pace and
lost no ground as the Senators
finally snapped their losing
habit, 90. in the nightcap.
Bobby Shantz shut out the
Tigers on five hits for the
Yankees. 80, and the Red Sox
Iclubbed the Athletics, 1915.
Two American League pitch
ers who saw action in Mon
days All-Star game at Los
Angeles, Cleveland's Cal Nc
Lish and Chicago's Wynn, were
routed early last night.
In contrast to the sharp
pitching of Latham, who faced
only 81 Orioles in the opener,
the 39-year-old Wynn was as
wild as a Little Lacquer. He
gave up seven walks, twice
forcing in runs, before retiring
in the fourth inning with his
seventh loss against IA vic
tories.
TOrgesOn Boots Three
It was a welcome experience
for Pitcher Arnold Portocar-
zero of the Orioles as 1t
brought him his second victory
after six losses. Portocarrero,
slowly rounding into form,
held the White Sox to five hits.
The Orioles broke a IL tie
with three runs in the fourth
with the aid of three walks
from Wynn and the first OF
three errors by First BaSeman
Earl Torgeson.
They nailed down the VIC
tory with three more in the
sixth on two more White Sox
miscues, combined with a
double by Bob Boyd and AL
Pilarcik's third straight hit.
While Latman was letting
the Orioles no farther than
second base in the first game,
the White Sox batters squeezed
their two runs out Of Jack
Fisher the hard way.
