Wilkinson predicted no tampering revealed by a February to September gap, with McClellan likely to sit out the season but keep three years of eligibility. The piece also covers Bentley loyalty quotes, Profs Lloyd and Butts praise, a lengthy Wellman Ackerly timeout, and local prep football notes.

Braves clinch pennant tie with 5-1 rain-soaked win over Reds
Lew Burdette pitched six hits allowed and fanned four to pace the Milwaukee Braves as they beat Cincinnati 5-1 in a rain-soaked game at Crosley Field. The result ties the NL pennant race, while Pittsburgh remained in contention with a 4-3 win over Philadelphia and Chicago took a 3-2 victory over the Dodgers. Burdette's maneuvering, support from Schoendienst Mathews and Covington, and a three-run fifth frame key the Braves' lead before Purkey's exit. Willie Mays led Giants in St Louis with three more hits to top the Cardinals 5-1, extending his NL batting lead. Pirates' win pins hope on second place. Cubs edge Dodgers 3-2 on Thomson homer and Buzhardt debut victory.
