sticks of dynamite have been

the men has been released on

been instructed by the city board

Bruss Still Has Confidence
In Braves Despite Slump

Braves are performing
like amateurs but the brass still
has confidence.
Executive Vice President
Birdie TebbettS and General
Manager John McHale, suffer-
ing in their first year with the
Braves, are confident the 1857

champions will bounce back.
Tebbetts and McHale refused
to become disheartened by a
seven-game losing streak which
has dropped the Braves into
fourth place, 3l2 games behind
front-running San Francisco.
Baseball is strictly a game
of momentum and the Braves
have simply lost theirs" Teb-
belts said. But this is too
good a ball club not to get 60

TebbettS, a fiery player who
became a prime manager, ad-

a 1872 loss to Cincinnati wasn't
encouraging.
"We1l just have to be patient
and wait for them to get back

people in Milwaukee have been
cheering a winner for a long

of us to back up a loser"

AS Pilot Suffers
Heart FIure-Up

KANSAS CITY. July %
(AP).-Harry Craft, manager
of the Athletics, suffered a
minor heart flare-up yesterday,
his physician said.
Craft, A, improved with
medication in a hospital, the
doctor said. He is scheduled
to have another electro-cardio-
gram test today.
Earlier, doctors had said
Crafts condition probably was
due to exhaustion and tension
and there was nothing wrong
with his heart. They said he
would be kept in the hospital
three or four days.
Coach Bob Swift guided the
ball club to an 81 victory over
Baltimore last night and will
continue to manage the AS
during Crafts absence.
