April 13. 1956 MedfordTribune at Mann's Sauer Provides Evidence Of Lane's Golden Touch By FRED DOWN United Press Sports Writer Mark down Hank Sauer today as proof that Frank Lane still retains his "golden touch" as a trader. In fact, it may not be long before the experts are debating whether the March 30th deal that brought Sauer from the Chicago Cubs to the St. Louis Cardinals is the best "steal Lane ever made. Frantic Frankie said Sauer "would help us against left-handed pitching" and, right now, that qualifies as the understatement of the spring. The 37-year-old Sauer made Lane look good again Thursday when he and Stan Musial hit "back-to-back" homers for the second straight game in helping the Cardinals down the Chicago White Sox. 5-2. in 10 innings The victory was the amazing Cardinals' sixth in seven meet ings with the White Sox, their 15th win in their last 18 games and their 20th in 29 Grapefruit League contests.

Wally Post had a homer and a single to pace the Redlegs' at- Tommy Jackson 8 to 5 Choice Over Williams Washington (U.R) Tommy (Hurricane) Jackson, who would like a go-at Rocky Marciano for the heavyweight boxing title, is an 8-5 fdvorite to bowl over Johnny Williams of Britain in their nationally-televised 10- round bout ton ight at Uline Arena. The whirl-wind, madcap Jack son has been taking on all comers. He has done pretty well and is looking hard for a big paycheck someday against Mar ciano. He is a rough fighter, and rated as the No. 2 contender for the world title. "Hurricane" trained in New Jersey. The Briton worked out here and caught more than a little "house" when he did his road work behind the capitol building. Williams is a former British champ who hopes to have a jab or two at a world crown. He has had 78 professional fights, 66 of which he won. There were draws and four lost decisions in between. tack. Dodgers Dump Orioles A crowd of 22,540 turned out in Baltimore to see the world champion Brooklyn Dodgers de feat the Orioles, 7-2, behind the four-hit pitching of rookies Charley Templeton and Ken Lehman.
