A Ragged Start The season got off Monday to a somewhat ragged strfrt when the Baltimore Orioles scored an 11inning, 7-« victory over the Washington Senators in a three - hour and 17-minute struggle marked by 26 hits and five errors. President Eigehhower tossed out two ceremonial "first balls" and looked like the best pitcher in the ball park until Billy Loes came along to pitch two scoreless innings and pick up the triumph. Something more like big league competition is anticipated today and tonight from a schedule that has Washington at New York, Chicago at Cleveland, Boston at Baltimore and Detroit at Kansas City in the A.L., and Brooklyn at Philadelphia might*, New York at Pittsburgh, Milwaukee at Chicago

Tigers is facing Tom Morgan of the Athletics. Reeae Sidelined In the Natiqnal League night opener, the Dodgers are sending 27-game winner Doh Newcombe against Robin Roberts of the Phillies. The Dodgers will be without the services of Pee Wee Reese in an opener for the first time in his career, excepting the war years, because of a strained back muscle. Don Zimmer, the Brooks’ hard luck kid, is replacing him. Warren Spahn, a 20-game winner last season, is handling the Braves' opening day mound chore against the Cubs' Bob Rush; Johnny Antonelli of the New York Giants is opposing Bob Friend of the Pirates and Vinegar Bend Mizell is hurling for the St. Louis Cardinals against surprise starter Johnny Klippstein of the Redlegs. The races start with the Yankees a lop-sided 2-5 pick in the A.L. and the Braves a slight choice in the N.L. A crowd of 23,872 saw the Orioles finally beat oqt the Senators Monday when Dick Williams doubled, moved to third on a sacrifice and scored on a sacrifice fly by rookie outfielder Carl Powis. Bob Satterfield Knocks Out Mise OAKLAND, Calif. (Ut — B o B Satterfield, who travels more miles in a year than many boxers do in a lifetime, hit the road again today with 34 knockouts to his credit but not a chance in sight for a shot at any titles. The Chicago, veteran flattened Ben Mise of Oakland in 1:22 of the first round in their scheduled 10-round go Monday night. Then the 33-year-old slugger immediately clamored for a title bout with either heavyweight champion Floyd Patterson or the winner of the Tony Anthony-Archie Moore light heavyweight championship fight.

104-old - Year Lady Awarded $300,000 t Awarded Fund From Daughter's Estate DETROIT — (IF) — A 104-year-old charity patient, who worked as a charwoman to raise a family of 10 children, was awarded I $300,000 Monday from* the estate of a millionairess daughter which tried to cut her off without a cent. The award to Mr# Wilhelmina Van Etten, a city-supported patient at a rest home here, climaxed a two-year legal battle in courts in Michigan and New York. Mrs. Van Etten’s attorneys, in a suit filed two year ago, contended that her six — times wed t daughter, Mrs. Agnes Momand, ignored her mother because of fraud and undue influence. The daughter, who died May 25, 1956 at the age of 65, wrote six wills, but failed to leave her mother any of the 3 million dollar fortune she had amassed by I her marriages. In one of her | wills, however,* Mrs. Momand remembered her mother by a gift i to the University of Nevada. In contesting the will, attorneys for Mrs. Van Etten cited usage of alcohol and drugs as reasons why her daughter was unfit to make a will. * The only member of the family mentioned in the will was Mrs. Betty Roberts, of. Los Angeles, a sister of Mrs. Momand. Other beneficiaries included her doctors, nurses, servants and her last husband, Donald S. Momand of London. Mrs. Van latten, a hospital patient for the past two years, was said to be in “satisfactory condition.” • Player Trade Made By Cubs And Giants CHICAGO (W — The Chicago Cubs today traded third baseman Ray Jablonski and catcher Ray Katt to the New York Giants in return for pitcher Dick Littlefield and outfielder Bob Lennon.
