Detroit Lions Trade Layne To Pittsburgh DETROIT <UPD — A coach’s' “dream” turned into a Texas-sized! nightmare for George Wilson so he! traded veteran quarterback Bobby! Layne to the Pittsburgh Steelers! for Earl Morrall and a high draft! choice for both 1959 and 1960. When Wilson took over as head\ coach of the Detroit Lions last ] year, he was presented with not one. but two brilliant quarterbacks —Layne of Texas and Tobin Rote of Riqe. The one -two combination gave the Lions the strongest quarterbacking in professional football. Rote’s-' presence p®id off handsomely w'hen Layne broke his ankle in the second last game of the regular season. Rote guided the Lions to three straight victories, including playoff and title wins. Luster Wears Thin But the luster of having two! i “No. 1” men was wearing thinl before Layne was hurt. Neither | liked the idea of playing second ■ fiddle. Both-Layne and Rote had! became accustomed to being the “big” men on their teams. Layne had piloted Detroit-to a; pair of NFL titles and three divi-! sional crowns before Rote came i

on the scene. Rote didn't have any title clubs at Green Bay. During the 1957 season. Rote went to Lion President Edwin J. Anderson with the complaint he wasn't playing enough. Anderson admitted there was friction between the two Texans but no one knew how much. . “Both thought they should start every game,” Anderson said. It was Wilson's practice to alternate the starting assignments, dependi ing on who looked best in practice . the week before a game. Chooses Younger Rote “They got . along . fine, openly,” [Anderson said. "But they must have been some resentment. No one knows how wide the breach was because they never discussed it.” Wilsqn said he picked Rote to stay because he’s two years younger than Layne who will be 33 in December. He said it was a "hard decision because I’m the one who got Bo McMillan to get Bobby and he’s always been a close friend.” "I think Bobby will do a great job at Pittsburgh, he’s one of the greatest,” Wilson said. Layne is in his 11th season in the NFL. The trade was met with mixed’ emotion for both Wilson and Anderson. It was on Layne's shoulders the Lions rose to the top. “It was a decision that just had to be made though,” Wilson said. Heads, hearts and hands well directed could settle the differences of the world much better better than arms.
Yanks Finally Catch Up To Lew Burdette MILWAUKEE (UPD — To gamble or not to gamble—that’s the question that confronts rival managers Fr*ed Haney and Casey Stengel today when they name their starting pitchers for the sixth game of the World Series. Haney, his world champion Milwaukee Braves still on top, three games to two, had a wellrested Bob Rush to throw at the New York Yankees but apparently was undecided whether to go with Bob Buhl, an 18-game winner in 1957 who was out with an arm injury most of this year. And Stengel, still insisting his Yankees could come on to win the series, had an equally-well-rested Don Larsen, the perfect game pitcher, ready but wondered whether he could afford to gamble with relief ace Ryne Duren or right - hander Art Ditmar. Announces Pitchers Today Haney, and probably Stengel, too, probably will announce the big decisions this a ft e r.n o o n. Haney said he would reveal his sixth game choice after a Braves’ workout. Stengel also indicated he’d make up his mind after a night's sleep. Rush, a 10-game winner during the National League season, lost the 4-0 third - game decision to Larsen but allowed only two runs in the six innings he worked. Larsen retired after seven shutout innings and Duren completed the game. Duren started only one game for the Yankees this year but Stengel pointed out: "I can just ask him to throw as hard as he can as long as he can and follow him with anybody I need. I’ve got a lot of pitchers and they’ve got all winter to rest so nobody's going to be spared.” It seemed certain, however, that Haney would hold out twotime winner Warren Spahn for the seventh game — if one is necessary. , Stengel Breathes Definance Stengel breathed definance despite the still - desperate position of the Yankees because he had finally seen the American League c h a m p i o n s beat the greatest nemesis in their" history. Lew Burdette, in the 7-0 fifth game. “I been saying all along we're not out of this thing,” he said. “And I still say well win it.” Burdette, four times a winner over the Yankees, finally got his come - uppance Monday when he was kayoed in. a six-run sixthinning rally. He had been hit sharply during the early innings but had allowed only one run— Gil McDougald’s third - inning homer — until the roof fell in on him in the big sixth. A single by Hank Bauer started the rally and Mickey Mantle followed with a single after Jerry Lumpe tried unsuccessfully to bunt on the third strike. Yogi Berra’s double, a walk and Bill . Skowron’s single routed Burdettel and brought on Juan Pizarro, who was tagged for a two-run double- by McDougald and a two-: run singie by Bob Turley before I he retired the side. Strikes Out Ten Turley, routed in the first inning of the Yankees’ 13-5 sec-ond-game loss, struck out 10 batters and needed only one outstanding defensive play to see him through the game. That big play came in the top if the sixth after Bill Bruton led off with a bad - hop single over shortstop Tony Kubek’s head. Red Schoendienst made a bid for a hit with a looping fly to short left center but Elston Howard, subbing for fourth - game fielding “goat” Norm Siebern,’ made a brilliant diving catch and converted it into a double play After that it was clear sailing for Turley, who mixed up his nowindup delivery with a wide variety of change-ups and fast balls that had the Braves taking strikes all through the game. It was Turley's second series victory. He beat the Braves, 3-2, in the sixth game last season to keep the Yankees alive. For Burdette, the defeat ended one of the most amazing sagas in World Series history. Four times he started against the Yankees and four times he won, the greatest record ever compiled against the Yankees in series competition. Pesky Is Appointed Knoxville Manager KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (UPD — Johnny Pesky, a Boston Red Sox infielder for 10 years, has been named manager of the Knoxville Smokies of the Class A South Atlantic League, and Bob Bonifay, general manager of Augusta last season, has been named to a similar post with Knoxville. The club recehtly ’ signed a ‘ working agreement with the Detroit Tigers.

Albany Is Winner Os EIC Baseball Title Albany high school won the Eastern Indiana conference baseball championship Monday afternoon, defeating Adams Central, 9-7, at the Adams Central field. Albany had won the south division title with a 5-1 record, and Adams Central copped the ’ north division crown with a 6-0 mark. Monday’s, setback was the only season loss for Adams Central. , Each team had six hits in the final playoff game, but the Greyhounds made 10 errors to contribute heavily to the Albany victory. Leading hitters for the Greyhounds were Max Egley with a triple and a 'Single, Tom Hyerly with a single and double, and Alan Habegger with a double. Larry Foreman was the Adams Central pitcher, with Dave Isch the catcher. Albany’s battery was Rich and Jones. | Today's Sport Parade | • Reg. U. S. Pat. Off.) By OSCAR FRALEY United Press International MILWAUKEE (UPD—Gangling Gil McDougald, who usually comes through when the Yankees need him most, was back on productio’n schedule today to help give the club needed life in the World Series. It was the angular Scotsman who, during the past eight years, has made it possible for Case?’ Stengel to be a platooning genius. It was he, too, who sparked the club early the past season as it piled up a walkaway lead in the American League pennant race. And it was McDougald, playing despite a painful groin rash, who showed the Yankees Monday how to get rid of their long-time nemesis, Lew Burdette. McDougald Homers Burdette had stood them on their ears four times running, three times as the Yankees lost the 1957 series to these same Braves and once again in the second game of the classic this time around. And for the first two innings Monday he had them eating out of his hand again. Until McDougald stepped up to the plate to lead off the third inning. Then the 30-year-old father of four whipped his bat into one of Burdettes fast ones and the ball arched high through the sunlight and struck the screen of the left field foul pole for a home run and a 1-0 Yankee lead. It was all that pitcher Bob Turley was going to need, as it finally turned out, even though the Yankees ran up six more in the sixth with a McDougald double sending home two more runs. “I knew I hit it solidly,” the freckle-faced infielder said later “The only question in my mind was whether it was going to curve foul.” Ends Batting Slump Thus did McDougald, the “glue man” of the Yankee infield, come out of a harrowing slump in which he had labored through the last two months of the season. “I was going great guns early in the year,” he recalled. “I was hitting about .375 and then the bottom fell out.” It did. He wound up batting a feeble .250 for his worst season in Yankee flannels. But afield he still was the take charge guy, able to second. Many thinks he is the best player defensively at every one of those positions in the entire league.

Two Series Records Set By Yogi Berra MILWAUKEE (UPD — Scries facts and stax: Yogi Berra, playing in his 10th series with the Yankees, claims two new records today. He’s been to bat the most times, 215. and his sixth inning double Monday gave him a new mark of 97 total bases. Old record of 96 was held by Babe Ruth. The Yankees’ 10-hit attack did a lot for their morale but it still left their series team batting average a sickly .196... Yankee scouts must have brought Gasey Stengel some excellent information on the Braves because 41 of ’em have struck out...with, nine’ strikeouts; Ed Mathews is only one short of mark for series of any length. Yankee shortstop Tony Kubek had been hitless in 14 trips before he finally beat out dribbler in fifth fhning. The Yankees, famed for their “tape measure” blasts, could have used nothing more than a yardstick to determine the length of Tony’s hit, though... The victory was Casey Stengel’s 32nd in series competition, another record. Loss by Lew Burdette still leaves him tied with Harry Brecheen as National League’s most successful World Series pitcher. Each has a 4-1 record. Gil McDougald’s homer was his sixth in series competition... Hank Bauer, who started the Yankees’ winning rally with a single in the sixth, batting .400 . . . Hank Aaron, who batted .393 against the Yankees last year, is 5-for-19 for .263 and Mathews, another Milwaukee slugger, is 4-for-19 for .211... Bill Bruton, with 2-for-3 and a walk Monday, leads the Braves hitters with a .500 average. The Braves didn't get a man past second base against Bob Turley, who was kayoed in a mere matter of 25 pitches in the second ;ame.
