Richards Asks
'Hold Fire'
Baltimore, Md. (U.R) Balti
more boss Paul Richards, under
fire for sending catcher Hal
Smith to the Athletics on waiv
ers, asked his critics to hold
back their ammunition today
because he has another deal with
Kansas City coming up.
"Some people automatically
assumed we got stung in the
big deal we made with the Yan
kees two years ago just because
we let Smith go last week,"
Richards said.
"That assumption is all wrong
because Smith's going to Kansas
City is merely the forerunner
of a deal we're going to make
with the Athletics this winter."
Two days after Smith went
to Kansas City on waivers last
Monday the Orioles acquired
catcher Mike Ginsberg via the
same route from the Athletics.
The 25-year-old Smith originally
came to Baltimore in a 10-player
trade with the Yankees, Nov. 18,
1954. and many considered him
the "key man" from the Orioles'
point of view.
Gonzales Victor
Over Spallotta
New York (U.R) Middle
weight Tony Gonzales used
speed and body punches to win
a unanimous decision over Fer
nando Spallota at St. Nicholas
arena in New York.
The steady body attack began
to show its effect in the third,
and had Spallotta slowing in
the fourth, although the Italian
rallied in the seventh. Gonzales
staggered Spallotta in the eighth
and nearly floored him, but
Spallotta rallied to last out the
bout.
SURKONT TO GIANTS
The New York Giants have
reached into the Pacific Coast
League for some much needed
pitching help.
The cellar dwelling Giants
bought veteran right-hander
Max Surkont from San Fran
cisco for cash and two players
to be delivered next spring. Sur
kont was on the St. Louis Cardi
nal roster shortly after World
War II and later saw service
with the Chicago White Sox.

Joe Brown
Lightweight
Bout Choice
New York (U.R) Joe
Brown of New Orleans, 31, is
favored at 9-5 to wrest the world
lightweight title from Wallace
(Bud) Smith at the New Orleans
coliseum Friday night in the
week's top fight.
It will be one of the three TV
bouts slated this week despite
the Republican convention at
San Francisco. Last week the
Democratic convention at Chi
cago curtailed TV fisticuffs to
Monday night. The Smith-Brown
TV-radio scrap goes over the
NBC networks.
Challenger Brown is favored
because he won a non-title de
cision over Smith of Cincinnati
on May 2 and because Smith ap
parently is on the skids. The
champ lost three straight non
title fights this year on a de
cision to Larry Boardman, on a
knockout to ex-welter champ
Tony DeMarco, and on decision
to Brown. Bud hasn't fought
since the Brown defeat.
Six Straight
Veteran Brown has six straight
victories, including three this
year over Arthur Persley
(KO 9), Smith and Eddie Brant
(KO 3).
His 60-14-8 record plus two
no-contests includes 26 knock
outs. He is rated eighth among
world contenders.
Friday's fight is slated for 15
rounds.
At the San Francisco Gardens
Wednesday night, featherweir
contenders Flash Elorde of the
Philippines, No. 4, and Miguel
Berrios of Puerto Rico, No. 10,
meet in a 10-rounder that
should be action-packed. Elorde
is favored at 8-5 because of his
skill and somewhat harder
punch.
Their bout will be televised
and broadcast over ABC net
works. Welterweigh champion John
ny Saxton is slated for another
tune-up bout with veteran Dom
Williams at Worcester, Mass.,
Thursday night, in preparation
for next month's title defense
against ex-champ Carmen Ba

Solons Press
4-3 Overtime
By NEAL CORBETT ,
United Press Sports Writer
The Sacramento Solons came
up with a pair of "big guns"
Monday night in their battle to
overtake Portland for fourth
place in the Pacific Coast League
but they were a little slow
getting into operation.
Al Heist finally got the range
and blasted out a homer with
two out in the bottom of the
ninth to tie the score and send
the game into extra innings.
Danny Baich led off the tenth
inning with one just like it to
give the Solons a 4-3 victory
over the Portland club.
The win moved the Solons to
within a game and a half of the
Beavers and the upper division.
Hollywood Gains
In the other games, the league
leading Los Angeles Angels
played their usual brand of ball
and swamped San Diego 12-1,
while Hollywood gained ground
on second place Seattle by
downing the Rainiers, 6-2. San
Francisco and Vancouver were
idle.
At Sacramento, Baich was
credited with three of the So
lons' four runs. Portland took
the lead with two runs in the
first frame and another in the
second on Sam Calderone's
eighth homer of the year. But
Baich got two of them back in
the fifth frame when he tripled
with two men on. That set the
stage for the tying and winning
homers.
Los Angeles staged its usual
"march of the monsters." Dur

Two-Baggers
Bring Win
For Spokane
By RAY ANDREWS
United Press Sports Writer
Doubles spell trouble and Ron
Jackson of Spokane dished up a
basketful of woe m last night's
Northwest League action.
The Spokane second sacker
bashed four doubles for a new
league record as the Indians
trounced Tri-City 15 to 3 on a
20-hit attack.
George Huffman, Spokane
right fielder, also had a large
evening with two doubles and
two singles and Chet Hamma
moto, shortstop, made his pres
ence felt with four singles.
The Spokane barrage made
the going easy for Bill Bottler
who won his 15th game of the
season and helped his own cause
with a two-run homer in the
fifth. Bottler spaced 11 hits for
the victory.
Joe Riney of Lewiston did all
right for himself with a homer,
a triple and a double as the
Broncs blanked league - leading
Yakima 9-0.
Riney's homer in the eighth
sent in two runs. He drove in
five during the game to make
things simple for Bob Roberts
who picked up his 12th victory
in spacing seven Yakima bingles.
Salem tallied three runs in the
eighth and nipped Wenatchee 4-3.
Mel Krause and Jack Dunn con
tributed singles and Russ Ross
burg doubled to chase both runs
home. Rossburg crossed on a
single by Frank Szekula.
, The victory left the Senators
only 1V4 games . behind the
league-leading Yakima Bears.
Bilko Slumps,
Still Leads
San Francisco (U.R) Steve
Bilko, the mighty siege gun of
the Los Angeles Angels, was
trapped in a slump before Mon
day night's game but continued
to lead the league by a good
margin both in round trippers
and percentage.
His total of 47 current clouts
kept him miles ahead of team
mate Jim Bolger who was sec
ond with 25. However, Bilko
failed to unload one last week
and going into Monday night's
contest had 34 games left in
which to break Tony Lazzeri's
PCL record of 60.
Bilko's average also dipped by
seven points down to .363 after
he went four for 20 last week
for a mild .200. He drove in four
more runs to boost his league
leading RBI total to 139.
Gene Mauch of the Angels
also tailed off last week but
still has an average of .354 and
led in hits with 178.
Raritan, N.J. (U.R) Jo
seph Grigoletti had revenge on
the borough council Monday.
Two weeks ago the automobile
repair shop proprietor appeared
before the council in a grease
stained tee-shirt and was repri
manded for his appearance. Mon
day he made another appear
ance in a chauffeured limou
sine and dressed in top hat, white
tie and tails.
