Bill Veeck Visits Sox Ball Park By ED SAINSBURY Chicago - (UPD - Bill Veeck and his associates, the new majority stockholders of the Chicago White Sox, visit Comiskey park today to see the baseball empire they have purchased. Veeck and his syndicate which includes former major league star Hank Greenberg and five investment bankers, paid $2,700,000 Tuesday to Mrs. Dorothy Rigney for her majority stock interest. The purchase gave Veeck's group 54 per cent of the stock. The other 46 per cent is held by Mrs. Rigney's brother, Charles (Chuck) Co miskey, who battled futilely in the courts to prevent the sale. Comiskey in Florida Veeck hoped to meet with Comiskey, a Sox vice presi dent, as soon as possible and discuss the sale and the future of the American league club. Comiskey, however, was in Florida at the Sox training camp in Tampa. He was not expected to return to Chicago until Thursday. "We'll keep coming back to Comiskey park, Veeck said, "until we can sit down with him in what we pray will be a most amicable discussion." Veeck emphasized he hoped to keep Comiskey in the or ganization as a "partner." "We are not going on the muscle," he said. "We don't want any of the rassling and scrapping that has gone on for years now." Stu Miller Faces Cubs Phoenix, Ariz.- (UPD -Little Stu Miller, exponent of the much-maligned but seldom hit "junk-ball," was to open on the mound against the Chi cago Cubs today in what he hoped would be a return to winning form by the San Francisco Giants. The "big two" of the Giant pitching staff - lefthander Johnny Antonelli and recent ly acquired Jack Sanford were pounded pretty much at will by the Boston Red Sox Tuesday, although the Ameri can Leaguers were without the services of Ted Williams. The Williams bat wasn't needed, however, as Jackie Jensen and Frank Malzone drove in six runs between them to give the Sox an easy 8-2 win and a firmer grasp on "the Cactus League leader ship. Malzone drove in four runs on a pair of singles, while Jensen hammered in a pair on a double and single. Seven of the Boston runs came off Antonelli and San ford.

Mantle, who hopes to shoot for the triple batting crown, was advised Tuesday not to throw for three days after he felt pain in his right shoulder. Dr. Sydney Gaynor, the club physician, found no calcium deposit and told Mantle to re sumeh is worxouts but to re frain from tnrowing. Nobody in the Yankee camp semed inclined to push the panic button, but reporters were surprised when Mantle revealed he has had recent trouble with the shoulder and has undergone treatment. The Yankees had made no mention that anything was wrong with their super star. Mantle first suffered the in jury when he collided at sec ond base with Red Schoen- d i e n s t of the Milwaukee Braves during the 1957 World Series. Like his predecessor. Joe DiMaggio, Mantle is a very slow healer and appar ently is subject to recurring ailments more than most ath letes. Braves Beat Yankees The Milwaukee Braves didn't help Casey Stengel's disposition when they beat the Yankees for the second straight time, 5-2. Rookies Jerry Nelson and Bob Giggie ana veteran joey Kay com bined to hold the world cham pions to four hits, including a two-run homer by Andy Carey. Hank Aaron homered for the Braves. The San Francisco Giants also received some bad news when pitcher Red Worthing- ton was ordered to New York City for a possible knee opera tion. Worthington, a holdout, reported from Birmingham, Ala., that his knee has puffed up and Dr. Harrison McLaugh lin will decide whether, an operation is necessary. The Boston Red Sox re mained , the only unbeaten team on the grapefruit circuit when they beat the Giants, 8-2, for their third straight win Jackie Jensen drove in two runs with a single and double and Frank Malzone delivered a two-run single to spark Bos ton's attack. Red's Defeat A's Catcher Ed Bailey blasted a three-run seventh-inning ho mer that carried the Cincin nati Reds to a 4-3 decision over the Kansas City Athle tics. The blow came off Ralph Terry after doubles by Frank Thomas and Frand Robinson produced one run. Joe Nux hall stopped a Kansas City rally in the ninth. Tony Taylor clubbed out two singles and a double for a perfect day and led the Chi cago Cubs to a 9-3 rout of the Cleveland Indians. Cal McLish was rocked for five runs in the first inning.

Ronnie Kline, R.G. Smith and Roy Face pitched a four-hitter against the Cardinals, who have dropped all four of their exhibition games.
