Dodger loss tightens N.L.
ST.LOUIS-(UPI)—The Pittsburgh Pirates' chances for winning the National League pennant are as unlikely as a rookie firing five consecutive shutouts against the defending world champions.
But that's exactly what happened Wednesday night when St. Louis' 22-year-old freshman hurler Larry Jaster stopped the Los Angeles Dodgers 2-0 for his fifth straight whitewash over the league-leaders.
JASTER'S CONTINUED mastery over the Dodgers plus Pittsburgh's 2-1 and 4-2 doubleheader victory over Philadelphia have
suddenly transformed a Los Angeles cakewalk to the pennant into a dogfight.
The Dodgers held a comfortable three-game lead over the runner-up Pirates going into Wednesday's action and could have possibly clinched their second consecutive flag by beating St. Louis while Pittsburgh dropped a twin-bill to the Phils.
But today Los Angeles' magic number remains at three with four games to go and the Dodgers own a $1\frac{1}{2}$ game advantage over the Pirates, who have only three games left.

Along with a letter of recommendation from his friend, Riney sent a letter to the Pittsburgh Steelers requesting a tryout. The Steelers agreed to have a look at the hopeful Lochmann.

Rinyey thought his play was deserving of a place on the regular 40-man squad. However, the Steelers thought not, and offered him a chance to play in the Continental League which is a professional minor league. The offer was declined in favor of coaching KU's freshman basketball squad.

"When I first came to KU, I wasn't very good at basketball. I felt I had to work at basketball to keep improving. I just didn't have time to improve myself and play football," he said.
