Kisco. N. from the San Francisco Giants before the 1958 season began, came to terms. He hit .253 last year, appearing mainly as a pinch-hitter. The White Sox also signed four other players.

They were pitchers Bill DuFour and Tom Qualters, first baseman Ron Jackson and utility infield-er Sammy Esposito. They have 19 men under contract. The Kansas City Athletics signed two young pitchers, Howard Reed and Dave Hill, to bring their list of satisfied playen to 14. In a minor league move involving the only major leaguer ever to pitch two consecutive no-hit, no-run games, Johnny Vander Meer was named manager of the Class Topeka Hawks of the Three I League for 1959. By Tho United Prtu Bob Turley, Bob Friend and Al Kaline three of baseball's top players came to terms Thursday for the 1959 season.

Turley, voted the "most valuable" major league pitcher of 1958, signed with the New York Yankees for an estimated $32,000. He received a raise of Ferry's 25 points, made it 10 straight and ended 7th-ranked St. John's nine-game winning streak with a 72-63 victory Thursday night. Both St. Louis and the New York club now boast 12-2 season records.

Joe Lapchick's Redmen had lost only to Bradley, by five points in New York. St. Louis' only defeats were to Kentucky and Cincinnati. The Billikens had to turn back a late St. John's surge in a game that was closer than the final score would make it appear.

Little Allan Seiden, St. John's leading scorer with 25 points, led a rally which pulled the Redmen within two points 61-59 with 2:52 left.
