The White Sox dropped a 1-0 decision to and Early Wynn with Billy Pierce on the losing end.

Larry Doby's home run in the fifth inning was the deciding blow. Once again it was a story of not hitting with men on base that caused the White Sox defeat. They had runners on base in every inning except the fourth, eighth and ninth. However, only in the third were they able to get two men on base in one inning and that was on singles by Jim Busby and Minnie Minoso. It was Pierce's fifth loss in ten decisions and gave Cleveland pitcher Early Wynn an 11-2 record.

Wynn now has a string of 29 scoreless innings. The (Tubs wasted no time in getting to rookie Luis Arroyo. Hank Sauer and Raasom Jackson hit back-to-bftck homers in the second before the (Tubs loaded the bases and made it a six run inning on Baker's fir.st bases-loaded home run.

Baltimore ObUins Philley on Waivers BALTIMORE (SV-The Baltimore Orioles announced today they have obtained on waivers Dave Philley, switch hitting outfielder of the Cleveland Indians.

Philley takes the place of pitcher Joe Coleman, who was given his Unconditional release Friday. Ohio Prep Star Signed by Braves MILWAUKEE Milwaukee Braves Friday announced the signing of Ernest Christoff, a 17- year-old Cleveland, Ohio, right hander who hurled four no-hit games for Euclid High School this spring. (Thristoff was signed to a 1956 contract to play with Eau CHaire in the Class Northern League. The boy is 6 feet 3 and weighs 170.

At the edge of almost every woods wild blackberries are ripe. of fruit in three stages hang on the same bush. Like a brooch set with jewels, the prickly branches of blackberry are decorated with green, red, and black berries all at the same time. Blackberry bushes are a welcome sight when heavy with fruit, but in the fall, blackberry becomes bramble. Even the most rugged hunter avoids their sharp thorns.

Around farm buildings, the fruit of honeysuckle is ripe. Robins, blue jays and thrushes stuff themselves with the juicy red berries Milkweed is in bloom in ditches along roadsides. The purple flowers and rubber-like leaves look almost tropical instead of a common rative weed. Like com and tobacco, milkweed and blackberry are native to this land. Potatoes and peas are in blcram.

Com is knee high, and tobacco has a good start. We went out to collect bait for the fourth of July. We found many grasshoppers about. We always find them in clover fields. In the vicinity of Fulton we set traps for minnows while the rest of the family went fishing in the Yahara River.

After catching several dozen minnows, some crayfish and frogs, we returned to the place where the family was fishing. "Catch any fish?" we asked. "Heck, everybody in disgust. "Did you use minnowsi or crab-tail?" we asked. "There should be catfish or sheepshead in here because they come upstream to spawn, and some of them stay here all summer." Then everybody switched to minnows and crab-tail, and resumed fishing.

But nothing happened. It fish fail to take one minnow, put on two, a friend once told us. So we tried it, and it worked. Fish started to bite immediately. Most of the time, however, tlie fish would jerk the bait off the hook without getting caught.

So we pinched off the heads on the minnows and buried the hook under the skin so the fish would have ito swallow the bait. Less than a minute after we tossed the bait into the water we caught a catfish. By removing the head of a minnow, the scent of oils and blood wash downstream where dozing fish are resting on the bottom. When lazy fish smell the bait they Two minnows on one hook perk up and follow the scent trail to your minnow and you get a "bite." We tried two live minnows on a hook, and two freshly killed dead minnows on a hook. Minnows with the heads pinched off produced the most fish.

We caught bullheads, catfish and sheepshead. With two small minnows on a jhook you can catch crappies, walleyes and rock bass at high noon, a time when most people claim fish don't bite. While fishing on the Rock River several years ago with Donald (Moose) Sherman, Rte. 3, Edgerton, he proved to us that two minnows are better than one. First he fished with one lively minnow on I a hook.

After 15 minutes without a nibble, Sherman pulled in his line and hooked another minnow on the same hook. "We haven't got much time," he said with a grin. "Put two minnows on your hook." We caught seven different species of fish within the next hour. Everytime we caught a fish it was something different. First we caught a white bass, than a catfish, a walleye, northern pike, lEverytime one of us pulled in a fish, Sherman would say, "Two heads are better than one."
