quarter, however, the Redskins
outfired the Medford quint 16

night, missing good shots.
Jack Daley of SM was high

Talent led the Cougars 10 to

Knickerbockers
Drop to Cellar
By UNITED PRESS
The "old guard" can't score
anymore and as a result the
New York Knickerbockers mov
ed into the National Basketball
association's Eastern division cel
lar today.
Nat Clifton, Ray Felix, Carl
Braun and Dick McGuire scored
a total of 30 points among them
Tuesday night as the Boston Cel
tics rallied in the waning min
utes to gain a 112-110 victory
that dropped the Knickerbock
ers into the cellar. .
Mostly on the shooting of
young Richie Guerin, who scor
ed 35 points in all, the Knicks
stayed on top throughout the
first three periods. But after
Guerin tired there was no one
to take up the slack, and the
sharp-shooting Celtics came on
to take the decision.
The St. Louis Hawks moved
to within IVi games of the West

Wayne Pistons by defeating the
Indiana team, 96-83. in the only
other game played Tuesday
night.

Yank Deal With Athletics
Leads To Blunt Charges of
Syndicating In
By MILTON RICHMAN
United Press Sports Writer
New York (U.R) American
League rivals, led by Cleve
land's Hank Greenberg, bluntly
accused the Yankees and Ath
letics of engaging in syndicate
baseball again today, but a de
fiant Casey Stengel blamed those
same critics for "boycotting" him
into his latest deal.
Greenberg. voicing his annoy
ance from the Indians' spring
training site in Tucson, Ariz.,
was the most outspoken against
the Yankees over the deal they
made Tuesday with Kansas City.
"It must be great to have your
own farm system in the same
league," he snapped, obviously
referring to previous deals be
tween the same two clubs in
which such players as Johnny
Sain, Tom Gorman, Eddie Rob
inson, Enos Slaughter, Lou
Skizas and Bob Cerv, figured.
Get "Six Chances"
"What are they all crying
about?" Stengel snapped back
from the Yankees' training quar
ters at St. Petersburg, Fla.
"When we tried to deal with the
other six clubs in the league,
they threw out a boycott against
us. Now they're all moaning be
cause we dealt with Kansas City
again."
Meanwhile, Stengel wasn't at
all sure that the Yankees had
hoodwinked the Athletics in the
deal as a majority of baseball
people seemed to think.
"Kansas City's got six chances
to look good on that deal," Casey
said, "and I got only two."
The "six chances" for Kansas
Citv that Stengel meant were

whom went to the A's. Another
player is due KC by April 13.
Regarding the two pitchers.
right-hander Art Ditmar and
left-hander Bobby Shantz, he in
herited from the Athletics Sten
gel had this to say:
Shantz' Arm Okr
"I liked Ditmar the first time
I ever saw him. But there's one
thing I can't understand. We
tried getting him a year ago
after he won 12 and lost 12 and
they say he's untouchable. So
last year he's 12 and 22 and now
suddenly they're willing to give
him up.
"We know all about Shantz'
arm condition. But we asked
around and find out it's okay."
To get the highly-regarded
Graff, the Athletics in an accom
panying deal, sent first baseman
Wayne Belardi and pitcher Jack
McMahan to Denver which will
get an additional player by April
15.
Part of Tuesday's deal back
fired and there is a chance that
there may be added repercus
sions from the trade that was
made. In addition to Ditmar
and Shantz, the Yankees orig
inally received bonus infielder
Cletis Boyer. then had to re
turn him to KC later in the day
because as a bonus player he is
not subject to trade until May
31.
"That could have nullified the
whole deal," explained a Yan
kee spokesman, "but we'll get
another player in his place by
June 15."
