Mantle Shines Again As Yanks Whip Boston
New York—(U.P.)—Might as well get used to reading about Mickey Mantle because that new golden boy of the Yankees is going to be making big baseball news for a long while.
Yesterday, with a ton of mental pressure on him since two were out in the ninth, the score tied at 3-3, and two on base, Mantle stepped up to the plate, took one swing and delivered a 400-foot homeer off Ellis Kinder that gave the Yankees a 6-3 series sweeper over the Red Sox.
In the National League, the Phillies beat Brooklyn, 6-1 in a night game in Philadelphia, while the Giants slunk home in shame after closing two out of three in Pittsburgh, the finale by a struggling 6-5 margin. The Cubs rallied late to top the Braves, 6-2, on a four-hitter by Warren Hacker.
Robin Roberts, the major's top pitcher in 1952 with a 28-7 record, was the winning Phillie pitcher in the Brooklyn game. Roberts gave up nine hits to send the Dodgers down to their third straight defeat.
Outfielder Frank Thomas fueled the Pirates to victory with a bass-loaded home run in the third inning. It was the first homer of his major league career. Howie Pollet got credit for the victory but needed
The Athletics topped the Senators, 6-4, in Washington as Bobby Shantz scored his first victory after two losses to the Yankees, while Detroit ended a five-game losing streak with a five-hit 8-4 victory over the White Sox by young Bill Hoeft.

Tennis Team to Play K-State; Golfers to Meet Washburn
Sporting a 3-1 record, the Jayhawker tennis team will resume action tomorrow when it invades Manhattan to take on the K-State Wildcats.
Coach Bill Winey will pit his Jayhawker golf team against an improving Washburn squad at 1 p.m. today on the Lawrence Country club course, and will match strokes
Coach Dick Mechem said he expects trouble from the Wildcats, not only on the court, but possibly off as well. Last year's match turned into a near riot when a disagreement arose on the scoring of the Lawrence meet. And, in Manhattan, although the sun was shining brightly, the Wildcat coach insisted the sets be played inside despite the fact that the Jayhawks had not played any indoor matches up to that time.
In Manhattan the Wildcats were victorious, and in Lawrence, when the contest was rained out about half-way through the match, both teams claimed the victory. They still do.
KU thumped Wasburn at Topeka 13} to 4} on April 1, but since then the Ichabods have shown vast improvement, having dummed their weeks ago. Kansas defeated the Cornhuskers here last Saturday.
with the Kansas State Wildcats at 9:30 am. here tomorrow morning.
The four-man squad composed of Ham Lynch, Harlan Hise, Bob Lacy, and John Prosser has been tough this season, having won three straight matches.
