Giants And Braves Are Dodgers' Most Dangerous Contenders

New York, May 5.

THE CHINA MAIL, FRIDAY, MAY 6, 1955.

The Brooklyn Dodgers ran their latest winning streak to seven games and their senson's record to an amazing 18 victories and two losses on Thursday, when they beat the St Louis Cardinals 4-3, to complete a sweep of their first home start against the National League's Western teams.

The slowly-improving New York Giants reached the .500 mark for the first time with a 6-3 conquest of the Chicago Cubs, meanwhile, but the Milwaukee Braves suffered a fifth straight defeat, to the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Detroit Tigers edged out the Boston Red Sox 3-2 in the only other Major League Game.

Rocky Marciano, who speaks softly and carries a bomb in each hand, acts like a worried novice when asked how long he will take to deck Britain's Don Cockell in their May 16 World Heavyweight title bout at Kezar Stadium.

"All I can say is I'll be battling all the way to defend my title," smiles the Rock as he sits on his bed and pops a ripe olive into his mouth. "I've never seen Cockell not even in the movies, So it could be tough."

"We got movies being shipped

"I understand that Cockell is real old-time fighter." Mar- dano goes on in his genteel Massachusetts accent, "He spars

AFTER MILE RECORD

Pictured in action is 22-year-old Brian Hewson of Surrey, England in training for his record-breaking Mile attempt. With the assistance of his coach Franz Stampf, who has trained many record breakers, Brian's training is aiming at a three-minute 57 second Mile which he hopes to achieve in the near future. Already this year he has covered the three-quarter mile in the very fast time of 2 minutes 56 seconds which is 8 second inside Dr Roger Bannister's record.--Express Photo.
