P0jW WAYNE SCOTT, Sports Editor Manager Al Lopez Says Sox On Way DETROIT (AP) - Those Go-Go white Sox are going places, says Manager Al Lopez. inis is the fast start we ve been looking for," said the Chica go manager after his club com pleted a sweep of a three-game series against the Detroit Tigers Beating a club as good as Detroit three in a row can do wonders for a club like the Sox." Lopez has been a runnerup to the New York Yankees seven of the eight seasons he has been an American League manager. Al ways the optimist, Lopez contends each spring that his team is capable of beating out the Yankees. This year, the Sox skipper is de pending on a pair of green rookies, neither of whom has had as much as two full seasons in the minor leagues. They can make or break us," said Lopez. Lopez is talking ' about Norm Cash, a 24-year-old outfielder who was handed the first base job, and John Callison, a left fielder who just turned 20. Cash hit his first major league home run in Sunday's 5-3 victory. "These guys aren't just experi ments," said Lopez. "Cash and Callison are regulars. They've OSBORN HOTEL EUGENE, ORE. Mri. J. R.

Former Giant To Be Arraigned NEW YORK (UPI) - Hank Thompson, former New York Giants third baseman, was to be arraigned in felony court today on charges of burglary and assault for allegedly slugging a woman press agent and stealing $3 from her purse. Yankee Norm Siebern's Hitting Paying Back Debt Owed Casey NEW YORK (UPI) - Solemn Norm Siebern says he's simply paying back a debt he owes Ca sey Stengel. Siebern s initial payment took form of an eighth-inning home run that brought the Yankees a 3-2 opening game victory over the nea !ox Sunday in a frigid 42- degree temperature at Yankee Stadium. "I owe Casey a whole lot." Sie bern said quietly, without attemp ting to dramatize. "I don't see how anyone can get any lower than I was after what happened in the World Series, but he stuck with me and you can bet I'm go ing to give him a little extra." Siebern's appearance in left field at Yankee Stadium Sunday was his first there since he butchered up the fourth game of last year's world Series and helped Milwau kee take a three-games to one lead in the classic. 'You'd better believe I'm a much happier man right now than 1 was the last time I was here," he grinned as he toweled himself in front of his locker following his game-winning wallop. Lasey didn t have to go with me as long as he has." Siebern added. "I'm just trying to repay him for what he has done." When Siebern s eratitude was relayed to Stengel, the Yankee manager said he was happy to hear it. "There never was any question about his hitting," Casey said, "but' we started to worry, about whether he could do the job in left field after all the trouble he had in the World Series." "I had to stay with the man," Stengel grunted. "He hit .286 in spring training, got on base a lot and ran all the other left-fielders off the position." In addition to his homer Sun day, Siebern collected a pair of singles to account for three of tha Yankees' eight hits. WALLET WMSHDP 104 Mala ft.

Mo., April 9 Just four hours ago, 47 men and women, drivers in the 1959 Mobil gas Economy Run, wearily crossed the finish line in front of the Muehlebach Hotel. They were dog-tired after 414 days and 1.898 miles of some of the toughest driving I've ever seen. Powered by Mobilgas Special, stock cars representing every U.S. make started from Los Angeles' Civic Center at dawn on April 5. First across the blistering desert, then up, up to 1 1,988 feet and over the jagged spine of the Rockies, then over the prairies. And by the end of the Run they had bucked 342 miles of traffic in 147 towns and cities. Deserts, mountains, prairies and cities running at maximum legal speeds all the timet One of the drivers summed h up for me: Toughest, most demand ing grind I've ever been through.
