CORVALLIS, Ore. (UPI)-The
Oregon State Beavers return to
full-scale practice today, with
concentration on defense in pre
paration for Saturday's battle
with Indiana at Bloomington.
Coach Tommy Prothro said
defensive halfback Dan Seig

White Sox Look
For Top Catcher

CHICAGO (UPI) If there's 'he two, he was "more interest-
a sadder lament than that about
the one that got away, check
with the Chicago White Sox.
They're looking for two who got
away.
Either one John Romano of
the Cleveland Indians or Earl
Battey of the Minnesota Twins
would be just what the doctor
ordered in Chicago's search for
a good right-handed hitting
catcher.
General Manager Ed Short
said he is getting nowhere try
ing to find one.
"This is our No. 1 require
ment. The only American
League catchers who would fill
the bill are Elston Howard, Bat
tey or Romano. And there's no
chance of getting them," Short
said Monday.
The White Sox never had any
claim to Howard, but Battey
and Romano both served as sub
stitutes behind Sherm Lollar.
Acquire Roy Slcvers
Battey's most active year
with the White Sox was in 1958
when he appeared in 68 games.
Romano was in 53 games with
the White Sox in 1959, before he
went to Cleveland in a deal that
brought Minnie Minoso to Chi
cago. For Battey, another player a
$150,000 the White Sox got Roy
Sievers from the Washington
Senators.
Short said his club is also
looking over National League
catchers but he named none he
would prefer in the senior loop.
Barring a sudden turn for the
better, the White Sox may have
to settle for a powerful right
handed batter in any position,
preferably in the outfield.

"An Encouraging Season"
Short reviewed what he called

"We were close enough this

anxious for more power, but we
won't weaken our club to get

"I . know that he set an all

was a question of Nicholson

in a straight player transaction. (UPI)
Trade Sends Craig
To Cardinals,
Altman To Mets
By LEO SOROKA
United Press International
ST. LOUIS (UPI) - Roger
Craig, "losingest" pitcher with
the New York Mets, was in the
St. Louis Cardinal camp today
with the chance of a lifetime
to hit the win column with reg
ularity.
"It's one of the best things
to haDDen to me since I've
been in baseball," said the 32-
year-old 190-pound Craig.
The Mets and the Cards Mon
day announced the -ade which
will put Craig in a Red Bird
uniform and send disappointing
29-year-old outfielder George
Altman, and rookie pitcher Bill
Wakefield to New York.
The big trade gives General
Manager Bing Devine a come
back try from the sour trade
involving Altman one year ago.
Devine brought the lefthand
ed power-hitter Altman to St.
Louis from the Chicago Cubs,
giving up pitchers Larry Jack
son and Lindy McDaniel. As
the season progressed the
Cards showed they needed
pitchers, not outfielders.
Had 93 Strikeouts
Altman had 93 strikeouts
against him. He had 18 doubles
and seven triples and nine
home runs, hitting .242 against
lefthanders and .282 against
righthanders.
Devine said big George "had
an off-year. . .but it wasn't that
bad."
"I want to stress that dispos
ing of Altman in no way re
flects dissatisfaction with his
contribution to the club," De
vine said.
Even with Stan (The Man)
Musial gone as a player. Man
ager Johnny Keane and Devine
agreed that the club found it
more "desirable" to add a
pitcher and give one of the
manv vounE Cardinal outfield
ers on the roster a crack at
Musial's job, and the one now
vacated bv Altman.
The Mets apparently iook a
good look at 22-year-old right

signed with the Cards for a

Kansas City, is a student at
Stanford. He had a 3-7 record
at Tulsa and a 1-3 mark at At
lanta the past season.
The Cardinals had tried to
get Craig during the past base
ball season, but when the two
clubs couldji t come to terms.
Devine worked a trade with the
Milwaukee Braves for Lew
Burdette.
"Craig gives us stability and
maneuverability in our pitch
ing," said Devine.
Craig showed a 49-38 record
with the Dodgers before mov
ing to the Mets in the 1961 ex
pansion draft. He turned in a
10-24 mark in 1962, and dropped
to a 5-22 record in 1963, includ
ing the near-record losing
streak of 18 games. In eight of
Craig's losses, New York was
whitewashed, and he lost four
1-0 decisions.
Craig, at his Lakcwood,
Calif., home said "This gives
me an opportunity to show I
can still be a winning pitcher
with a little more support."
I got a little worried about
my ability along the way last
season when I lost so many in
a row," he said. 1 Know I'm
a better pitcher than that."

Imports Doubled,
Wool Growers Told
PORTLAND (UPI) - Oregon
sheepmen were told Monday
lamb imports from Australia
and New Zealand have doubled
since last year.
The statement came from
Jean Wyckoff, Denver, manager
of the market research depart
ment of the American Sheep
Producers Council.
Wyckoff told the Oregon Wool
Growers Association that last
year imports were highest on
record and the 1962 figure now
has been doubled.
He said that under the gov
ernment's present trade policy
of lowering tariffs and liberaliz
ing trade it did not appear the
trend would change. He said the
best chance of a solution would
be working out agreement with
foreign producers.
Wyckoff added an effort is be
ing made to coordinate imports
so that the market will not bo
flooded during the heavy do-
I mcstic production season.
