Club President Calls Umpires Incompetent
CINCINNATI (UP) — President Warren Giles of the National League defended his umpires today against charges they were incompetent.
"I think we have a fine staff of umpires in the league this year," he said. "Umpires make mistakes, so do ball players, managers of clubs, and presidents of leagues." The criticism was leveled by Gabe Paul, president of the Cincinnati Redlegs.
Stan Musial's home run that won the 1955 All-Star game boosted his 12-year average for the mid-summer classic to .326-14 hits in 43 trips to the plate.

Al Smith Wins For Cleveland
By UNITED PRESS
The first-place Cleveland Indians have no kick coming with Al Smith even though he's playing with a lame leg.
Bad leg and all, Smith smashed his fifth homer of the season in the ninth inning against the Yankees Monday to give the Indians a 3-2 victory and possession of the American League lead by 10 percentage points.
Until game time, manager Al Lopez wasn't sure whether he would play Smith because of the leg which he originally injured in spring training.
"I think I can make it" the left-
fielder told Lopez and the Indians' leader decided to let him try.
It was the only game scheduled in the majors yesterday.
The Yankees meet the Indians again today. In other American League games Boston is at Detroit, Baltimore at Kansas City and Washington at Chicago.
