Last-Chance Series Puts
Heavy Pressure on Tribe
Wynn Burs Woy
As Indions Try
To Sweep Sox

The Cleveland Indians. who
struck out in a glowing oppor-
tunity q week ago, get their
last chance to pull back into
the pennant race tonight when
they open a three-game series
against the leading White Sox
in Chicago.
A crowd Of more than 10000
fans is expected to jam Comis-
key Park to see Early Wynn
17-9 try to turn back the
belated bid by the Tribe.
Rookie Jim Perry (10-6) will
carry Cleveland's hopes.
The White Sox. who stunned
the Indians by sweeping q
four-game series in Cleveland
last week end, are riding q
5la game lead with % games
to play.
That makes the Indians task
plain. They need a sweep to
get back into the thick of the
fight, but they can retain some
hope by taking two out Of
three and pulling within IA
games of AL Lopez pace set
tiers.
Pressure on Tribe
All Of the pressure is on Joe
Gordon's club, for any combi-
nation of 10 Chicago victories
or Cleveland defeats will give
the White Sox their first flag
in 40 years. After this series,
the two rivals will meet only
one more time-in Cleveland
on September %.
Neither club played yester.
day. In the only games in the
league, the Yankees defeated
Washington, go, and Balti-
more topped Boston. 5-4, on
Bob Nieman's two home runs.
In their only game since
their debacle against the White
Sox, the Indians defeated

dropping a game to Detroit
