Royall of New York, former sec
retary of the Army, heads the

Wertz First BoSox
To Accept Contract
United Press International
Vic Wertz, one of baseball's
"hard luck" players, is being
counted on today to bring the Bos

road this year.

Cleveland Indians last month, be

Jimmy Orr
Top Pro Rook
NEW YORK CAP) Jimmy
Orr, an unheralded offensive end
who gained stature with the Pitts
burgh Steelers as the season pro
gressed, today was voted the
National Football League's 1958
rookie of the year in a close race
with Bobby Mitchell of the Cleve
land Browns.
The 5-11 native of Seneca, S.C.,
who did his college playing for
Georgia University, received 16
votes of the 41 football writers
voting in the annual Associated
Press poll. Mitchell, the speedy
halfback who started the season
as if he were going to run off
with first year honors only to slow
down in the final weeks, received
nine votes. '
,. In all, nine' freshmen were nomi
nated. Los Angeles tackle Lou
Michaels, Baltimore halfback
Ray Brown and New York half
back Phil King received four votes
each. Single votes went to tackle
Alex Karras of Detroit, quarter
backs Mack Reynolds and Dale
Meinert of the Chicago Cardinals
and halfback-end Bill Anderson of
Washington.
. The 21-year-old Orr caught 33
passes, seven of them for touch
downs and gained 910 yards, an
average of nearly 28 yards per
catch.
help on the road. And, he always
has done well in Detroit and at
New York s Yankee Stadium.
PITIFUL ROAD RECORD
Higgins referred to the Red
Sox' pitiful road record last sea
son when they won 22 games and
lost 55. Despite this performance,
the Red Sox managed to wind up
third in the American League.
Wertz suffered a broken leg last
year and missed all but the last
month of the season. He got into
25 games in September, batted
.279 and knocked in 12 runs.
The Indians, meanwhile,
brought their satisfied list to 25
with the announcement that pitch
ers Dick Stigman, Bob Tiefenauer
and Al Cicotte and shortstop Dick
Strickland have agreed to terms.
Stigman was 15-7 at Mobile, Tiefe
nauer was 17-5 with a 1.89 earned
run average as a -relief ace for
Toronto and Cicotte had a 3-4 rec
ord with, the Indians last season.
Strickland was on the voluntarily-
retired list in 1958.
A'S SIGN SIMPSON ,
Other signings:
Al Smith signed with the Chi
cago White Sox and accepted a
slight pay cut. He hit .252 and
drove in 58 runs in 139 games
last season.
Harry (Suitcase) Simpson, who
hit .253 in 76 games for Kansas
City last year, returned his signed
contract and predicted "1959- will
be a better year than 1956." Simp
son hit .293 and knocked in 105
runs in 1956.
Catcher Ed Bailey, star rookie
in 1957 but a disappointment last
seasonj signed with the Cincinnati
Redlegs. He is No. 5 on Gabe
Paul's satisfied list.

decree provides that James D.
Norris and Arthur M. Wirtz, long
time principals in the IBC, must
sell all their stock in New York's
Madison Square Garden Corp. And
they must also dissolve .tfce IBC
clubs of Now Y'ork and Illinois.
When the Supreme Court upheld
that decree, it delivered a knock
out to the IBC. and it gave the
government final victory in its six
year fight to bust the monopoly.
But it lett the boxing world in
an atmosphere of uncertainty of
hope mingled with doubt doubt
that the powerful Norris group,
which had nearly absolute control
over the fight game since May,
1949, would actually yield that con
trol. Optimistic Jack Dempsey said
at Chicago the Supreme Court de
cision produced a "new birth" for
boxing. The ex-heavyweight chain
pion said it "will take the hobble
chains off boxing and put the
small clubs back into operation."
But in New York, Cus D Amato
manager of heavyweight chain
pion Floyd Patterson said, "Al
though I'm overjoyed at the deci
sion, 1 m also sure that the IBC
now will try to attack me more
viciously and aggressively than
ever before since they no long
er have any reason for restraint
no longer have to pursue a soft-
pedal policy while awaiting the
Supreme Court s decision.
CHARGES IBC
D'Amato, a crusader against the
IBC, claims that the Norris outfit
has persistently tried to interfere
with Patterson defending his title
for independent promoters.
Whether there s any basis for
D'Amato's lingering suspicions
will be determined when the Ros
ensohn group attempts to stage
Patterson's next title defense as
an independent operation at the
Garden.
In addition to the dissolution of
the two IBC clubs and the divorce
ment of Norris and Wirtz from the
Madison Square Garden Corp.
Judge Ryan's decree provided that
both the Garden and the Chicago
Stadium open their gates to "any
duly qualified promoter" for the
next five years.
And only a "fair and reasona
ble" rental can be charged for
those punch eniporiums. District
courts will settle any arguments
over rents.
Those provisions should encour
age new promoters to attempt ti
tle fights.
SHAKE-UP TV BOUTS
Another encouraging provision
limits the Garden and Chicago
Stadium corporations to staging
two title fights each during any
year. That should enable inde
pendent promoters to find avail
able title dates at those sites.
The decree is expected to cause
a shake-up of some sort, in the
Wednesday and Friday-night TV
fights. It provides that all exclu
sive contracts for the promotion of
boxing events, including non-title
bouts, are banned. The current
contracts for both shows end in
June, but they could be assigned
to special boxing departments set
up by the Garden and Chicago
Stadium.
Score, Garcia Play
Big Roll For Indians
By JOE GORDON
.Manager, Cleveland Indian
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (UPI-
The Cleveland Indians' pennant
hopes this season hinge on the
recovery from operations ot two
established stars and the develop
ment of several boys who are
ong on potential but short on ex
perience.
Of course, our biggest question
mark is Herb Score. If that left-
handed fireballer recovers from
the injury which almost cost him
his- eye, he will be hard to stop.
Score could be the best pitcher in
the American League this season
or he could be just another
has-been.

MOOSE MA'S
And don't be loo surprised if
Mike Garcia makes a come-back 1
this year. Mike had a disc opera
tion last summer and it might
have cured his bad back. He
worked out with us near the end
ot the season and seemed to be
ok. I'm convinced he can still
throw.
The man with the best potential
on the club is outfielder Rocky
Colavito. He came into his own
for the first time near the end of
last season and if he improves at
the same rate this year he can
become one of the greatest hitters
in baseball.
We are also looking for good
seasons from Minnie Minoso and
Larry Doby. If these boys come
through, we 11 be tough to beat
There was some talk last season
that the Indians might be moved
away from Cleveland because the
fans were no longer supporting
the club. I think we have the kind
of team this year that will lure
the citizens of Cleveland back to
Municipal Stadium.
We are going to have a fast,
hustling club with a lot of young
players. It should be interesting
to watch all season. We've got
a lot of fellows who like to win
and they are going to play that
way.
General Manager Frank Lane
obtained Billy Martin for second
base. Everyone knows he's a hust
ler. As an old second baseman my
self, I think Martin is the best
man available. There may be bet
ter second sackers in the majors,
but they were not for sale this
winter. ,
We had lo give up Don Mossi
and Ray Narleski to get Martin
and Lane was criticized in some
quarters for the move. But
think we 11 have good pitching
even without Don and Ray, and 1
think Martin will be of great help
to the ball club.
Another hustler is .lim Piersall,
who we obtained this winter from
Boston. He'll get a try at the cen
ter field position along with Doby,
Woodie Held and former San
Francisco Forty Niner football
star Carroll Hardy.
One thing I like about this hall
club is the versatility of the play
ers. Almost everyone on the team
can. play more than one position
with equal ability.
At first base we could use Doby
Vic Power or Mickey Vernon.
At second it could be Martin or
Power. The possible shortstops
are Held, Bill Hunter, Bill Har
tell and Bill Moran.
The third baseman could be
Held, Power, Harrell, Earl Aver
ill or Randy Jackson.
Catching we 11 have Russ Nixon
and Dick Brown backed up by
Hal Naragon.
The most versatile pcriormcrs
are Power and Held. We can use
them almost any place we need
them. This will give us added
depth without additional players.

Ernie Vossler Captures Top
Money In Tijuana Open Action
TIJUANA, Mexico UPD The
louring golf brigade, well bronzed
alter two weeks in the sun of
Mexico and southern California,
headed for the rain and winds of
Pebble Beach today aiming for
the Bing Crosby pot 'o gold.
The well - known professionals
finished a well-beaten second here
Monday in the $'20,000 Tijuana
finen tournament as Ernie Vos
sler, Midland. Tex., won and John
MrMulIin. Alameda. Calif., fin
ished second.
Such seasoned tourists as Na
innal Onen champion Tommy
Bolt, Masters champion Arnold
Palmer and PGA champion Dow
Fmsterwald usually don't give the

But they were the big wheels
down south of the border; they
are playing excellent golf: and
they'll be among the important
shotmakers to watch in the big
Crosby clambake starting Thurs
day. .
Vossler had been engaged in a
head-and-head battle with Tommy
Bolt when he broke loose on a
string of five consecutive threes-
four of them birdies in tne oacK
nine.
Bolt and Vossler were even aft
er 36 holes, still deadlocked after
54 and still tied after 63 with
only nine holes to go. But while
Ernie got hot with his irons and
set ud easy birdie putts coming
home. Tommy killed his chances
when he took a double-bogey six
on the 17th. Bolt ended far off the!
pace with a 280 good for only1
io70. !
Vossler had rounds of 69-65-71-68
good for S2.900. The 65 tied the'
i
course record for 18 holes and the
273 smashed the old course mark
lor 72 holes by seven strokes.

LONDON (UP!) - Hammering
Henry Cooper, encouraged by his
upset victory over Brian London
that earned him the British and
Empire heavyweight titles, today
demanded a $140,000 guarantee
before he dares step into the
same ring with world champion
Hoyd Patterson.
Cooper had been offered a $72
000 guarantee to challenge for the
world crown before he bounced
off the canvas Monday to gain
a 15-round decision over London
in one of the bloodiest ring bat
tles ever staged in the British
Isles.
The husky, blond Londoner real
ized his stunning victory stamped
him as the next logical opponent
for Patterson, who is the first
heavyweight king to offer guaran
tees lo challengers to prevent
them from running out on match.
cs. That undoubtedly explained
Cooper's demand for a hike in
the guarantee.
Cooper suffered the only knock-
down of Monday's brawl before
18.000 at Enrls Court arena when
a hard right to the chin in the
fifth round dropped him to one
knee.
