Castoffs Are Winning Gaines For Baltimore By MILTON RICHMAN United Pres* Sport* Writer Casey Stengel describe* Baltimore Manager Paul Richards as a "juggling genius,” and praise from Caesar is praise indeed- “ That man Richards has taken a bunch of hand-me-offs and made them into a downright respectable ball club," Stengel says. Richards has the once - downtrodden Orioles looking so respectable that they have taken 15 of their last 25 games and today are only 3ft games away from the first division. Like Stengel says, most of the Orioles are discards from other major league clubs, and Monday night two of them, pitcher Skinny Brown and third baseman Billy Goodman, combined talents in a 6-0 victory over the Detroit Tigers. Brown, plucked from the minors by Richards after undistinguished showings with the White Sox and Red Sox, set the Tigers down on five hits and made liberal use of his knuckle ball in striking out six batters. Phils, Redlegs Advance Goodman, hitting a cool .343 since being obtained from Boston 110 days ago, contributed a twojrun homer and a single in Baltimore’s 12 - hit attack that aAt Duke Maas down to his fifth defeat. The victory was the Orioles' fifth in their last seven game*. Brooklyn crushed St Louis, 10-3, and Philadelphia mauled Milwaukee, 10-4, in the only other major league games scheduled Monday night. The defeat handed them by the Dodgers Cut the Cardinals’ lead in the National League to half a game over the idle Redlegs, who moved into second place as the Braves dropped to third. St. Louis led 2-1 until Brooklyn chased Sam Jones with a six-run rally in the seventh inning PeeWee Reese and Carl Furillo each contributed two-run doubles in the big inning. Duke Snider slammed a pair of homers for the Dodgers, his 13th and 14th. while Furillo connected for one. Joe Cunningham of the Cards also homered. The victory went to Carl Erskine, who pitched the first six innings and then was relieved by Ed Roebuck. It was Erskine’s first victory of the season and his first since last Sept. 17. Phil* Narrow Gap "Hbme runs by Stan Lopath, Ed Bouchee and Rip Repulski enabled the Phillies to move within a game and a half of first place. Lopata hit his with one on in the first inning off loser Warren Spahn and Bouchee also hit his homer off Spahn with two on in a four-run sixth. Juan Pizarro yielded Repulski’s homer with one on in the ninth. Southpaw Harvey Haddix gained his sixth triumph although giving up all 12 of Milwaukee’s hits in the 7 1-3 innings he pitchedThe Braves, who lost Joe Adcock with a fractured ankle Sunday, had two more players injured Monday night. Second-base-man Red Schoendienst hurt his bask in a fall down the dugout steps and had to quit after five innings, and reliever Dave Jolly was hit by a batted ball in the eighth. Catcher Del Crandall played first base for the first time in seven years after Frank Torre was removed for a pinch hitter in the sixth. Limit Is Proposed On Reserve Clause WASHINGTON (UP)—Bob Feller, who pitched tor the Cleveland Indians for his entire 20 • year baseball career, proposed today, that a player become a free agent allowed to dicker with any team after he spends five years th the bi| leagues. Feller, now president of the Major League BasebhU Players Assn., was scheduled to outline his views to a House Judiciary subcommittee studying whether baseball should remain immune from anti-trust laws. Feller and another of baseball’s all-time greats, Stan Musial of the St. Louis Cardinals, were slated to testify following Warren Giles hnd William Harridge, presidents of the National and American leagues, respectively.. Both Harridge and Giles wdre expected to oppose vigorously any time limit on the operation of the reserve clause, as did baseball Commissioner Ford Frick last week. Frick pic tu red a “chaotic scramble toplayer talent" if the clause were wiped . out. One of baseball’s officialdom Monday advocated a six-year limit on the reserve clause. This suggestion came to C- Lt*® de Orsey, a director of the Washtagion Senators. •_ ' De Orsey said the average life of a major leaguer is Ibss .than five years and “there is no need of keeping him chained for life," However. De Orsey said nothing should prevent a club from ■ entering a long-term contract for a period beyond-six years. • Trade in a good town — Decatur

Norris Studies Appeal From Court Ruling NEW YORK <UP>—Defense attorneys for the Jim Norris boxing monopoly today studied the possibilities of appealing Federal Judge Sylvester J. Ryan’s knockout decision to the United States Supreme Court. Norris said. “Whether we appeal or not. I intend to remain in boxing — if it’s only in the Midwest.” Ryan’s admittedly “drastic” decision apparently bans Norris and his partner Arthur Wirtz permanently from big - time boxing in New York. The 13-page verdict read Monday from the bench in U.S. District Court not only dissolves the two International Boxing Clubs permanently and divorces Norris and Wirtz permanently from the Madison Square Garden Corp.? but it also gives the court permanent jurisdiction over the defendants and their title-bout activities. And one of the major reasons for the “dissolution and divorcement" in his decision was the judge’s desire to restore promotional competition between the East and Midwest. On March 8 Ryan found the Norris boxing empire guilty of monopoly in its conduct of title fights- One of the principal reasons tor that verdict was the interlocking directorates of the Garden Corp,, the Chicago Stadium Corp., and the IBCs of New York and Illinois. The Garden Corp., owned the IBC of N.Y.. and the Stadium Corp, owned the IBC of Illinois. Monday he ordered the two IBCs dissolved, e f f e c t i v e next Monday as far as their functioning is concerned. On Monday the judge will give his “final judgment” containing the machinery to carry out Monday’s orders. Norris, president of the Garden Corp, and of the Stadium Corp , and Wirtz, a director in both organizations, were ordered to dis-
