Medford as the electrical scoreboard shows, led Marshfield
Ford Frick
To Rule On
Trade Issue
Scottdale, Ariz. (UPD Base
ball Commissioner Ford Frick
was expected to issue an offi
cial ruling today on a disput
ed trade between the Boston
Red Sox and the Cleveland
Indians.
The Red Sox traded catcher
Sammy White and first base
man Jim Marshall to the In
dians for catcher Russ Nixon
last Wednesday but White
promptly threw a monkey
wrench into the deal by an
nouncing his retirement from
baseball.
This caused stormy Cleve
land General Manager Frank
Lane to fire a hotly-worded
telegram at Red Sox General
Manager Bucky Harris, charg
ing Harris knew all along
that White would retire if the
Red Sox traded him.
Harris counter-fired with a
message advising Lane, "your
accusations are profoundly
untrue."
Sox Sign Nixon
Harris said he signed Nix
on to a Red Sox contract Mon
day and, in effect, defied the
Indians to get him back.
"He's a Red Sox ballplayer
now," said Harris.
Nixon chimed in with the
statement that he did not
want to return to the Indians
because he was annoyed at
the tone of a letter Lane sent
him this spring.
"This is vicious," said Har
ris referring to Lane's tele
gram. "I didn't know how vi
cious Lane could be. He's try
ing to make me out a crimi
nal. This is a matter for the
commissioner."
Harris said he expected to
hear from Frick today.
Lane, during a stopover in
San Diego, Calif., Sunday,
said "the deal's off as far as
I'm concerned," He said he
would send Marshall back to
the Sox.
It was believed that the
Red Sox signed Nixon to an
S18.000 contract about S3,
000 more than he was receiv
ing from Cleveland.
Harris indicated he would
make some arrangements to
make up to the Indians for

would not include the return

Rookies are the traditional
heroes of spring training but
it's the "old folks" who are
monopolizing the headlines
this year.
One reason is that rainy
weather early in the training
program deprived many roo
kies of a real chance to strut
their stuff and another is that
veterans already are tuning
up to make fast starts in the
pennant races.
Take Monday when 39-year-old
Stan Musial, 38-year-old
Warren Spahn and 37-year-old
Hank Bauer displayed
mid-season form in pacing the
St. Louis Cardinals, Milwau
kee Braves and Kansas City
Athletics to victories.
Musial Hits Homer
Musial, working like the
most unheralded rookie in
camp to make up for a .254
campaign in 1959, hammered
out a homer and a bases-filled
double as the Cardinals
pounded out a 12-8 win over
the Cincinnati Reds. Larry
Jackson pitched no-hit ball
for the Cardinals for five in
nings but then Jerry Lynch
connected for a grand slam
homer in the sixth.
Musial, who took special
workouts during the winter,
is enjoying one of ' the best
springs of his career, and is
more confident than ever that
he'll make a comeback.
Spahn, 21-15 last season but
fighting to prove to Manager
Charlie Dressen that he can
work on a four-day rotation.
held the world champion Los
Angeles Dodgers to unearned
runs in six innings as the
Braves scored a 6-4 victory.
Spahn's stint matched the pre
vious longest stint turned in
by a Milwaukee pitcher, by
Carlton Willey, and he now
has allowed only two runs in
11 innings this spring.
Decisive Runs

Bauer, starting a new ca

his ex-teammates to lead the
Athletics to a 10-1 triumph.

the spring, contributed a dou

He's Ready For
Crack At Champ
Houston, Tex. -(UPD Son
ny Liston said today he's
ready for a crack at heavy
weight champion Ingemar Jo
hansson and he 11 fight anyone
who thinks he isn't.
Liston, number two con
tender behind Floyd Patter
son, brightened his chances
for a title shot Monday night
with his second quick disposal
of 10th -ranked Cleveland
"Cat" Williams.
The Philadelphia brawler
battered Williams to the can
vas twice before referee Ernie
Taylor called it off after 2:13
of the second round. The fight
was the feature bout of a
closed circuit television broad
cast to San Antonio and Dal
las, where live preliminaries
were held.
In San Antonia, Ray Portil
lia, a local boy, scored the up
set of the night with a techni
cal knockout over lightweight
champion Joe Brown, in the
sixth. It was a non-title bout.
INVESTIGATION DELAYED
Washington - ' (UPD ' - Sen.
Estes Kefauver (D-Tenn.) says
his subcommittee's investiga
tion of boxing has been de
layed by the civil rights de
bate but is ready to roll
"whenever the subcommittee
deems it possible."
Al Lopez Predicts
Chicago White Sox
Will Take Series
(This is the first of 16 dis
patches on the 1960 pros
peels of the major league
baseball clubs.)
By LEO H. PETERSEN
UPI Sports Editor
Sarasota, Fla.-dJPD-Al, Lopez
not only is predicting a pen
nant for his Chicago White
Sox this year, but a World Se
ries triumph as well.
He believes the winter deals
whereby the club obtained
Minnie Minoso and Gene
Freese "is going to give us the
power we lacked last season."
"We had to give up some
talent to get them," Lopez
pointed out, "but only one of
them figured in our 1960
plans. That was Bubba Phil
lips and we replaced him at
third with Freese.
"We didn't disturb the best
defense and pitching in the
league to get our new talent.
"That's why I'm sure we
are going to win again and
go on to take the World
Series."
Others Less Optimistic
Most baseball men are not
as high on the White Sox as
the senor. They reason that
Freese is not the fielder Phil
lips is and that the team
could run into pitching
trouble because there are
some pretty old arms on the
staff.
Early Wynn, who led the
staff with 22 wins in 1959, is
40. Gerry Staley, the relief
specialist, will be 40 during
the campaign. Dick Donovan
and Billy Pierce are not ex
actly kids either.
However, Lopez predicts
that Pierce and Donovan will
improve on their marks on
last year when they won only
23 games between them.
"1 am certain of one thing,"
said Lopez, "and that is that
they won't wind up losing
more games tiian they win
like they did in 1959."
Lopez also forecast that Bob
Shaw, 18-6, will be a bigger
winner this season and also
looks for improvement in
arry Lateman, 8-5.
Wynn, Shaw, Pierce, Dono
van and Latman will be his
starters with Turk Lown join
ing Staley in the bullpen.
Rest of Club Set
All the rest of the club is
set if Ted Kluszewski can
make it at first base. Klu
spent the greater part of the
last three years on the bench
because of back trouble. But
after the White Sox got him
from Pittsburgh, he played
in 30 games, hit .297 and was
the big gun for the team in
their World Series loss to Los
Angeles.
If Kluszewski needs help,
veterans Earl Torgeson and
Billy Goodman are available.
That super keystone combina
tion of Nellie Fox and Luis
Aparicio are back at the mid
dle of the diamond with
Freese at third. Sam Esposito
and Goodman will be around
to spell them if needed. -
It will be Minoso in left
field, the fleet Jim Landis in
center and Al Smith in right.

dianapolis last year, has a

Qualify Twice
New York -rtJPD- Once again
there will be "double qualify

Golf championship, the United
States Golf Association
(USGA) announced today.
That means most of the
2,000-plus expected entrants
will have to compete first in
59 local tournaments, May
23-24. Survivors in these 36
hole matches then will com
pete in 12 sectional tourna
ments, June 6-7, also at 36
medal holes.
Out of these sectionals will
come a yet uncertain number
of qualifiers to join with a
handful of exempt players to
form a field of 150 for the
championship itself at Den
ver, Colo., June 16-18.
The "double qualifying"
system was used for the first
time last year because of the
steady growth in the total
number of entries. A record
of 2,385 entries were received
last year.
Entries close on May 4.
The sectional tourneys will
be held at Denver, Colo.,

Earlier this month, the Big

the powerful Middle Western

Abolition
Of Boxing
Proposed
New York - (LTD - Profes
sional boxing - "the down-at-the-heels
prostitute of organ
ized sports" - should be abol
ished on both medical and
moral grounds.
So states James Stewart
Gordon in an original article
"Abolish Professional Box
ing!" in the April issue of The
Reader's Digest which appears
today.
Citing medical testimonv
that sometimes a single hard
blow to the head can kill a
boxer by causing massive
cerebral hemorrhage, M r .
Gordon points out that since
World War II some 165 boxers
have died of injuries suffered
in the ring.
Sordid Business
The author calls boxing not
a sport but a "sordid busi
ness." designed only to yield
maximum profit to the men
who control the fighters,
arenas and TV outlets - a
monopoly known as the "Oc

the fact that boxers can be
permanently injured or killed.
Two former welterweight
champions Johnny Saxton
and Johnny Bratton, both
around 30, are now in mental
institutions, seeking to c&ar
the cobwebs from their brains.
They are nothing but memor
ies to those who used them
during their productive years,
and dropped them when their
value ceased to exist, Mr.
Gordon claims.
As long as professional box

pose of lining the pockets of
mobster bosses at the expense
of battered, cheated and help
