White Sox Say Added Player Deals Pending COLORADO SPRINGS. Colo., < UP)—“We’ve got two more deals cooking,” claim the suddenly active Chicago White Sox, who now are trying to get back some of the batting power they gave up to produce “the best pitching staff in the American League.” Within the past two days, the White Sox have added pitchers Early Wynn and Ray Moore to their staff in separate deals with Cleveland and Baltimore. To get Wynn and Al Smith from the Indians Wednesday, the White Sox were forced to give up their big stick man, Minnie Minoso, along with utility infielder Fred Hatfield. And in the Moore deal with the Orioles they gave.up slugging Larry Dpby. Great Pitching Staff Frank Lane of Cleveland, who made Wednesday’s deal with the White Sox, said Chicago now has a pitching staff quite capable of winning the pennant. “I hope this deal alerts the Yankees,” said Lane, who is still trying to do business with them for a second baseman, preferably Bobby Richardson. Wednesday’s deal was the first one "Lane made since taking over as Cleveland general manager three weeks ago. Like the White Sox, he said he, too, was trying to swing a pair of deals on two other fronts.

lowa Tackle Hamed As Lineman Os Year NEW YORK <UP'—Alex Karras, lowa’s hard - crashing tackle who reduced his way to stardom, was named today by the United Press as college football’s “Lineman of she Ysar" for 1957. The 220-pound steel - tough big fellow from the steel city of Gary, Ind., was an overwhelming choice of sports writers and broadcasters throughout the nation who took part in the voting. Karras received 86 votes to 27 for runnerup Bill Krisher of Oklahoma. For Karras, who has been picked in the National Football League player draft by the Detroit Lions and also has an offer from Winnipeg in Canadian pro football, the honor caps a brilliant career that really got rolling when he took off weight. Here are examples of Karras’, outstanding defensive plays: Against Michigan he crashed through and spilled passer Jim van Pelt so hard that the ball l squirted loose; lowa recovered on the Michigan eight and scored a ■key TD in a 21-21 tie. Against Northwestern, he jarred loose another fumble that lowa recovered and set up the only score in a.6-0 game. Against Washington State, one of his best games he opened holes for two touchdown thrusts and crashed through to the ball from Bob Newman and set up the winning score in a 20-14 game. End Jimmy Phillips of Auburn had 25 votes in the balloting to press Krisher for second place. Lou Michaels of • Kentucky was fourth with 20 points and center Dan Currie of Michigan State fifth with 15.

High School Bond Plays Friday Night Just prior to the Decatur - Berne basketball game Friday evening, the Decatur high school band will present a special feature, in the school gym. They will play a medley of “The Firebird Suite," by Igor Strawinsky, and the Benny Goodman arrangement of "Jumpin’ at the Woodside." Clint Reed, director of the band, pointed out that it is a strange fact that Strawinsky, a modern symphony composer, is a great fan of the modern jazz composer, Benny Goodman, and Goodman, in turn, is quite a fan of Strawinsky. These two composers will be honored by the band at tomorrow evening’s performance. Pro Basketbail Boston 108, Minneapolis 98.
