Williams' Senators Fall as Brunet Shuts Indians
Washington ends a long skid with a 7-3 win over Cleveland as George Brunet, in his seventh major league club tour, yields seven hits and a three-run homer. Meanwhile the Yankees crush the Orioles 10-4 behind Fritz Peterson's two-run shot and a seven-run third inning to tighten the pennant race. In other action, Minnesota over KC, California over Chicago, and Detroit at Boston washed out by rain. Local notes include Monday Nite Ladies' League opening at Corry CC with Chillock and Bracken leading in low gross and low net. A separate item reports a 26 3/8 inch rainbow trout caught at 20-mile Creek by Dick Hughes.
