Casey Stengel Praises
As Baltimore Hands D
By MILTON RICHMAN
Uhiled Press Sporti Writer
Casey Stengel describes Balti
more Manager Paul Richards as
a "juggling genius," and praise
from Caesar is praise indeed.
"That man Richards has taken
'. a bunch of hand-me-offs and
made tnom into a downright
respectable ball club," Stengel
lay.
Richards has the once-downtrodden
Orioles looking so re
spectable that they have taken
15 nf their last 25 games and
today are only 3', i games away
from the first division.
Like Stengel s?ys, most of the
Orioles are discards from other
major league clubs, and Monday
night two of them, pitcher Skin
ny Brown and third baseman
Billy Goodman, combined tal
ents in a 6-0 victory over the
Detroit Tigers.
Brown, plucked from the
minors by Richards after un
distinguished showings with the
White Sox and Red Sox, set the
Tigers down on five hits and
made liberal use of his knuckle
ball in striking out six batters.
Phils. Redlegs Advance
Goodman, hitting a cool .343
since being obtained from Bos
ton 10 days ago, contributed a
two-run homer and a single in
Baltimore's 12-hit attack that
sent Duke Maas down to his
fifth defeat.
The victory was the Orioles'

Morris Attorneys Study
Possibilities of Appeal
By JACK CUDDY
United Press Sporti Writer
New York T Defense at
torneys for the Jim Norris box
insj monopoly today studied the
possibilities of appealing Feder
al Judge Sylvester J. Ryan's
knockout decision to the United
S'a'es Supreme Court.
O Norris said, "Whether we ap
Jeal or not, I intend to remain
hi boxing if it's only in the
1J id west."
Syan's admittedly "drastic'
decision apparently bans Norris
(nd his partner Arthur Wirtz
permanently from big time box
ing1 in New York.
The 13-pnge verdict read Mon
Jiiy from the bench in U. S.
District Court not only dissolves
tlie two International Boxing
fei'uh permanetly and divorces
Norris and Wirtz permanently
O from the Madison Square Gar
den Corp., but it also gives the
'jnurt permanent jurisdiction
over the defendants and their
boxing activities.
And one of th major reasons
ft)T the "dirtolution and divorce
ment" in his decision was the
Judge's desire to restore promo
tional competition between the
List and Midwest.
Found Guilty
On March 8 Ryan found the
Norris boxing empire guilty of
monopoly in its conduct of title
fights. One of the principal rea
sons for that verdict was the
interlocking directorates of the
Garden Corp., and the IBCs of
New York and Illinois. The Gar
den Corp., owned the IBC of
N.Y., and the Stadium Corp.
owned the IBC of Illinois.
Monday he ordered the two
IBCs dissolved, effective next
Monday as far as their function
ing is concerned. On Monday
the judge will give his "final
judgment" containing the ma
chinery to carry out Monday's
orders.
Dispose of Stock
Norris, president of the Gar
den Corp. and of the Stadium
Corp., and Wirtz, a director in
both organizations, were ordered
to dispose of their S2 million
worth of stock in the Garden
Corp. and resign as officers and
directors. Although they must
resign by July 30, they have
seven years in which to dispose
of their shares through a trustee
ship. During that period of- dis
posal they will receive dividends
on their shares put will have
no stock-voting privileges not
even by proxies.
fifth in their last seven games
Brooklyn crushed St. Louis.
10-3, and Philadelphia mauled
Milwaukee, 10-4, in the only
other major league games sched
uled Monday night.
The defeat handed them by
the Dodgers cut the Cardinals'
lead in the National League to
half a game over the idle Red
legs, who moved into second
place as the Braves dropped to
third.
St. Louis led 2-1 until Brook
lyn chased Sam Jones with a
six-run rally in the seventh in
ning. PeeWee Reese and Carl
Furillo each contributed two
run doubles in the big inning.
Duke Snider slammed a pair
of homers for the Dodgers, his
13th and 14th, while Furillo
connected for one. Joe Cunning
ham of the Cards also homered.
The victory went to Carl
Erskine, who pitched the first
six innings and then was reliev
ed by Ed Roebuck. It was Ers
kine's first victory of the season
and his first since last Sept. 17.
Phils Narrow Gap
Home runs by Stan Lopata,
Ed Bouchee and Rip.Repulski
enabled the Phillies to move
within aa game and a half of
first place.
Lopata hit his with one on in
the first inning off loser War
ren Spahn and Bouchee also
hit his homer off Spahn with
two on in a four-run sixth. Juan
Pizarro yielded Repulski's hom
er with one on in the ninth.
Southpaw H a r v e y Haddix
gained his sixth triumph al
though giving up all 12 of Mil
waukee's hits in the 7 13 in
nings he pitched.
The Braves, who lost Joe Ad
cock with a fractured ankle
Sunday, had two more players
injured Monday night. Second
baseman Red Schoendienst hurt

Feller Wants
Free Pitchers
Washington UP) Bob Feller,
who pitched for the Cleveland
Indians for his entire ' 20-year
baseball career, proposed today
that a player become a free
agent allowed to dicker with any
team after he spends five years
in the big leagues.
Feller, now president of the
Major League Baseball Players
Assn., was scheduled to outline
his views to a House Judiciary
subcommittee studying whether
baseball should remain Immune
from anti-trust laws.
Feller Testifies
Feller and another of base
ball's all-time greats, Stan Mus-
ial-of the St. Louis Cardinals,
were slated to testify following
Warren Giles and William Har
ridge, presidents of the National
and American leagues, respec
tively. Both Harridgc and Giles were
expected to oppose vigorously
any time limit on the operation
of the reserve clause, as did
baseball Commissioner Ford
Frick last week.
Chaotic Scramble
Frick pictured a "chaotic
scramble for player talent" if
the clause were wiped out.
One of baseball's officialdom
Monday advocated a six-year
limit on the reserve clause. This
suggestion came to C. Leo de
Orsey, a director of the Washing
ton Senators.
De Orsey said the average life
of a major leaguer is less than
five years and "there is no need
of keeping him chained for life."
However, De Orsey said rfothing
should prevent a club from en
tering a long-term contract for
a period beyond six years.
out steps and had to quit after
five irtnings, and reliever Dave
Jolly was hit by a batted ball
in the eighth.
Catcher Del Crandall played
first base for the first time in
seven years after Frank Torre
was removed for a pinch hitter
in the sixth.
