Cleveland, Ohio U.R Out
fielder Hoot Evert and first
baseman Ferris Fain, two vet-
. erans who have seen better
days, Joined the Cleveland In-
dians today in separate deals
which General Manager Hank
Greenberg "can help us win the
pennant."
Thm Indians, fortifying them
selves for the latter half of the
ant race in which they trail
the first place New York Yan
kees by five games, acquired
Evers in a waiver deal with last
place Baltimore and picked up
Fain as a free agent.
In exchange for Evers, the In
dians gave Baltimore left-handed
pitcher Bill Wight, another fad
ing veteran wno nas no won

unrir4 in 18 eames as a re
liever for Cleveland this year
T-wmrm Want Sour
-" Evers, should he regain the
all-around talent he showed wun
the Detroit Tigers in 1950, his
best year, could be 01 consid
erable help to the Indians. Only
34, he has a lifetime batting
vomep of .280 in the majors,
hut nftpr hittine a peak of
.323 with Detroit that year he
unaccountably went sour.
Fain, who was dropped by
the Detroit Tigers, reportedly
Viorsmae he suffered from both
a sore knee and a sore head,
was signed as a free agent. He
received bis unconditional re-
Imu last week after a series
of quarrels involving his suc
cessor on the Tigers, iirst Base
man Earl Torgeson, and Tiger
Coach Lynn (Schoolboy) Kowe.
Fain re-iniured his knee dur
tng the past winter in a fall and
It hobbled him badly, "particu
. larly in the field where he once
had shone as a top defensive
first sacker.
- However, Fain told Greenberg
his knee was sound again.

Norfolk Drops
From Piedmont
. Norfolk, Va. (U.FD The
Class B Piedmont Baseball
League suffered a double Jolt
today when the Norfolk Tars
officially went out of business
and the Hagerstown Packets in
dicated they may be forced to
follow suit shortly.
Norfolk, which pipe-lined such
stars as Phil Rizzuto, Vic Raschi,
Bob Porterfield, Bill Skowron
and Bill Virdon to the majors
among others, dropped out of
. the league after being one of its
strongest institutions for the past
24 years.
i Although the Tars won the
"pennant the past four years, they
drew a total of only 16,000 paid
fans this year. F. S. Herring,
the club's general manager, said
the Tars needed over 50,000 ad
missions to keep financially
"above water."
Meanwhile, a Hagerstown club
spokesman said the Packets will
collapse unless they get $14,000
shortly.
Draff Dodging
Aide Believes
Conviction Fair
Brattleboro Vt. U.B Mrs.
Lucille S. Miller said today her
conviction on charges of urging
youths to dodge the draft was
"fair." She added it was only
her first step in proving peace
time conscription unconstitu
tional. "I had a fair trial and the ver
dict was just one step toward
reaching an adjustment to rem
edy a serious condition of justice
in this nation," the mother of
three said.
Mrs. Miller was convicted by
a jury id U.S. District Court
yesterday. The jury of seven
women and five men deliberated
an hour and eight minutes before
returning the verdict to Judge
Ernest W. Gibson.
Freed on Bail
The chubby, 44-year-old wom
an was freed on $1,000 bail pend
ing sentencing Aug. 8. Attorneys
indicated they will appeal her
conviction to the U.S. Court of
Appeals in New York City.
- She faces a maximum sentence
of five years in prison or $10,000
fine, or both, on each of 18
counts in two indictments.
Mrs. Miller admitted during
the three-day trial that she sent
letters to nine young men urging
them to dodge the draft and turn
over their draft cards to her. She
also admitted sending each a
copy of an anti-Communist pub
lication, The Green Mountain
Rifleman, in which she ex
pressed her views.
Declared San
Mrs. Miller and her husband,
Manuel, held off federal mar
shals at gunpoint last May when
the government tried to remove
her to a mental hospital. The
couple was tear-gassed from their
home during the 12-hour siege.
Mrs. Miller was declared sane
and released from the hospital to
stand trial. Her husband, now
free in $10,000 bail, goes on
trial Monday for obstructing jus
tice.
