Rumor White Sox, Senators In Trade By UNITED PRESS Reports of an impending deal between the Chicago White Sox and the Washington Senators cropped up today as other major league clubs sought to beat the midnight deadline on the 25-player limit. The Washington Post and Times Herald said the White Sox were seeking outfieMer Roy Sievers and infielder Pete Runnels of the Senators in exchange for outfielders Larry Doby and Jim Rivera and pitcher Bill Fischer. The deal was proposed by Chuck Comiskey, president of the White Sox, the paper said, adding that Chicago Manager Al Lopez definitely, was interested in acquiring Sievers and Runnels. Na Names Mentioned Lopez told the United Press, “We have been talking with the Nats since spring training to see if we can work out a deal that will improve both clubs." But he said he never mentioned any names because “it’s not nice to mention names to other clubs.” The White Sox, meanwhile, got down to the 25-player limit by optioning pitcher Jim McDonald to Indianapolis of the American Association and handing outfielder Bob Kennedy his outright release. The New York Giants acquired veteran pitcher Sandy Consuegra from the Baltimore Orioles for an estimated $15,000 Tuesday night. To make room for the 36-year-old right hander, the Giants are expected to drop either southpaw pitcher Pete Burnside or infielder Foster Castleman. Cards Sell Rookie The St. Louis Cardinals reduced their roster to 26 players by selling rookie southpaw Robert G. Smith to the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Pirates, in turn, optioned outfielder John Powers to Columbus of the International League. The Senators and the Cleveland Indians must drop three players before tonight’s deadline, while the Milwaukee Braves must slice two men. In addition to the Giants and the Cardinals, the Cincinnati Redlegs, the Brooklyn Dodgers, the New York Yankees and the Boston Red Sox each were one player ouiar the limit, Dorwin And Gould Are Co-Captains John Dorwin and Jay Gould, seniors, were elected honorary cocaptains of the Decatur Yellow Jackets track team for the 1957 season at a meeting of squad members. Bob Worthman, head coach, also announced the names of 23 letter winners, as follows: Seniors — Jay Gould, Fred Schott, Jim Hullinger, Stanley Alger, John Isch, Dewayne Agler. Jack Ladd, Dennis Lobsiger, Ed Bean and John Dorwin; juniors — John Sheets, Jack Macklin, Pat Nelson, Dave Eichenauer, Dave Butcher, Fred Locke, Larry Moses, Bob Banks, Ted Hutker, Harry Hebble. Jerry Fell, Gary Sheets; sophomore — Pat Franklin. TEVERBAUGH (Con tinned from Page Oaf) he would seek to. protect them from self-incrimination. When Smith refused to answer Sedillo’s question about his service as a highway commissioner, Sen. Thomas Kuchel (R-Calif.) asked Lipscomb if he felt “it was a crime to be a member of the Indiana Highway Commission.” Lipscomb said he advised Smith to refuse to answer because the question “might open up a line of I questioning” that would lead to the matters involved in the indictments. Smith gave the same reason later for refusing to acknowledge that he could see a highway blue- ' print put before him. Dodges Other Questions Other questions he refused to answer were whether he knew Teverbaugh, Peak, Doggett, or several other persons from whom land was bought for the expressway; whether money from the sales went into the Ripley Finance Co., of which he was president; or whether he instructed Teverbaugh to “assist or favor” anyone from Milan “to make profits” from sale of land for roads. Sen. Albert Gore (D-Tenn.), subcommittee chairman, opened the hearing with a review of the events in the month-long investigation of Indiana highway matters.
