I jagtrftwra ffi-myra QgQg -Tr KANSAS CITY GETS TUTTLE IN ONE OF BIGGEST TRADES Tnv Dea A9s Martin to Tigers in 1 riayer 1 with 225 home runs in his lifetime, including 27 last year, is expected to play left field. Morgan, 27, probably will be used as a relief pitcher a Detroit weakness this year when the team finished fourth. Thompson, 34, hit only .205 last season but caught the eye of Detroit brass when he hit three home runs in three straight games at Briggs Stadium. Two Prizes Tuttle and House were major disappointments for DETROIT. MICH.

(INS) The Detroit Tigers and Kansas City Athletics Wednesday completed a 13-player trade, one of the biggest swaris in the history of the major leagues. The Tigers sent outfielders Billy Tuttle and Jim. Small, pitchers John Tsi-touris and Duke Frank House, and two minor league players to be named later to the As. In return, they got In-fielder BJlly Martin, catcher Tim Thompson, pitchers Mickey McDer-mott and Tom Morgan, i a ii they have such other starting hurlers as Frank Lary, In Waterloo, where i 4 Thinks Evy Will Stay iiuiii. iiiLiimuiiMiiiiiw' ti inn-TT iiirn r'nrTT rmn nrm.inn-ni in i I 1 1 1 1 1 i inn; rirrrrTT i i i i i i I few if i'f'- and outfielders Gus Zer-nial and Lou Skizas.

Six American League teams reportedly have been bidding for the services of Martin, the aggressive 29-year old infielder who played five seasons with the New York Yankees before he was traded to the A's last June after the "Copa incident." He hit .252 last season and connected for 10 home runs. Used at Shortstop Martin, 29, reportedly will be used at shortstop. The seasoned Zernial, he measures up to the best in the land. Karras Ranks with Duke Slater and Calvin Jones as an all-time Iowa lineman. One of the strongest lineman in the country, he reacts like a halfback.

Commings Although weighing only 174 pounds, he's contributed as much as any other lineman in the last two years. Shares the credit for bringing Iowa its first Big Ten title in 34 years in 1956. Bloomquist One of the most underrated guards in the country, he started as a sophomore and has answered the opening whistle in every game since. Truly an ironman. He's been the defensive captain for two years, heading the unit which brought the Hawk-eyes national recognition.

Hagler Pound for pound (he weighs 160), the best back in the Big Ten. He's Iowa's leading rusher with a 6.6 average. A hard-hitting tackier, too. Happel A starter last year, he played back of Hagler this year, which wasn't exactly a demotion. Right now he has a 7.1 rush average and if he maintains the pace he'll equal the school's highest average, 7.1, set by Earl Smith in 1954.

Harris Plagued by Injuries, he's been on bench Two of Iowa's outstanding; linemen: BobCommings (left) and Frank Bloomquist Contribute heavily to Hawkryes' success up front. NOTRE DAME IS FINAL FOE For 15 Hawkeyes, String-Runs Out the Tigers. House, signed for $82,000 and two cars in 1948, never hit more than .260. Tuttle slipped to .251 this year. Kansas City probably considers Small, 20, and Mass, 26, the "prizes" of the swap.

Small has shown a great deal of potential but had little opportunity to play because of inexperience. Maas posted a 10-14 record with Detroit. The Tigers no doubt considered him expendable because came in handy last year in spots as a defensive back. Bowen A dependable guard reserve. Played more last year but lost ground to juniors Hugh Drake and Gary Grouwinkel this fall.

Has good speed and turned in several creditable performances. Theer Injuries slowed him but he always put out 100 per cent. He's listed as the No. 4 tackle. Saw considerable action last season behind Bloomquist hut was moved to the thin tackle position.

Pierce Played more football as a sophomore and junior and came in handy as a reliefer. This year he was listed as the No. 3 center behind Mac Lewis and Bill Lapham. His weight (180) handicapped him. Squad member for three years.

Fast and light. He's played spasmodically this fall in reli'ef. Good pass receiver and hard worker. He has been Gibbons' shadow for two years. Sgro Played more as a sophomore.

Slowed by injuries. Not the fastest man, but always came up with his best. He's the a lot but seldom gets a chance to take the bows. Favor Chestnut LOS ANGELES, CAL. UP) Ike Chestnut of New York, ranked the second best featherweight in the world, remained a 10-8 favorite to whip Ricardo Moreno of Mexico City in a 10-round fight here Thursday night.

A Wooden Leg Doesn't Keep Prep Off Field DENVER, COLO. (INS) Denver prep football players were surprised to learn Wednesday that a player from South High School wore an artificial Jeg under his stocking. Dick Mead, a 6-foot 4-inch, 235-pound senior guard, held the ball on extra point attempts and played an average of three to four minutes in all but one contest. Few of his opponents knew of the handicap. The leg had to be amputated below the right knee after Mead fell while skiing three years ago.

Coach Leon Diner said Mead might have been a great lineman. He says he has tremendous strength in his arms. Diner said: "The boys didn't complain about little injuries when they thought about what Dick was doing."

Martin Boiling KANSAS CITY, MO. Billy Martin said he will demand a' cash settlement from the Athletics as his share of the swap. The peppery little second baseman was boiling mad when he greeted newsmen in his hotel room a few moments after the big trade had been announced at the A's headquarters. "I'm happy to go to Detroit," he said.

"It's a great baseball town. and a hell of a good team but they can't just throw us (baseball players) around from one club to another without having a say-so. "I don't have any argument with Detroit. My argument is with the Kansas City Athletics. If I am a tool of this great machine of baseball I want to get something out of it." Martin, after playing eight years with the New York Yankees was traded to Kansas City last season in a multi-player deal that followed an after-hours fracas in a New York supper club.

Martin's part in the disturbance was reported to have influenced the Yankees to dispose of his contract. "I play eight years with one ball club and then one year I am with threa clubs," Martin fumeu. if Kansas City had told me I was going to be traded, it might be different, but Parke Carroll (A's general manager) told me not to worry." Martin said he was first advised of the trade by Detroit General Manager John J. Hale, who telephoned him long distance Wednesday morning. "I haven't even heard from the A's yet," he "What's the matter, can't they afford a phone call?" A half hour after Martin was interviewed, George Selkirk, A's director of player personnel, said he had "talked with Billy and I think he's quieted down."

UP) The Edmonton Eskimos and the Winnipeg Blue Bombers meet tonight on a frozen field in the second game of Canada's Western Interprovincial Foot ball Union final.

The Bombers, whose numbers include quarterback Kenny Ploen and end Frank Gilliam, former Iowa standouts, can enter the Grey Cup final by winning since they took a 1-0 lead in the best-of-three series with a 19-7 victory at Winnipeg Saturday night. The Eskimos, paced by halfback Johnny Bright, formerly of Drake, must win to force a third game Saturday night and are favored by about 15 points.

CH 4-7115 By Tony Cordaro Fifteen Iowa seniors end their football careers Saturday at South Bend against surprising Notre Dame. Only five are listed as starters but the other 10 have played major roles in Iowa's success over a two-year span. It's difficult to measure their contribution. The losses definitely will provide major problems for Coach Forest Evashev-ski and his staff in 1958. Heading the seniors are Starters Jim Gibbons, an all-America end candidate; Alex Karras, who should be an all-America tackle for the second straight time; guards Bob Com-mings and Frank Bloom-quist and right halfback 1 Collins (Mike) Hagler.

Not far behind the regulars in stature are tackle Frank 4 Rigney and right halfback Bill Happel. The eight other seniors: fullbacks F.ed Harris, who started eight of 10 games last year; and Jon Janda; quarterback Gene Veit; linemen Don Bowen, Dick Theer, Chuck Pierce, Jerry Jenkinson and Dom Sgro. A sketch of the seniors: Gibbons One of Iowa's great ends. Set a school pass reception record with 548 total yards, more than 100 yards more than the nld mark set by Dan Mc-Bride in 1952. Defensively, mrvr.u hauler most of the year.

He was a starter last year and his rushing and kicking were vital in Iowa's march. to the Big.Ten and Rose Bowl championships. He first gained recognition in the 1955 Notre Dame game with his surprising blasts through the Irish line. Rigney He's been the swing man this year, relieving either Karras or Dick Klein at the tackles. Developed into a top-notch offensive tackle.

He came to Iowa as a heralded end. Only tackles like Karras and Klein could keep him from starting. Janda Played in relief for three years but never lost his desire. A hard driving ball carrier, he served more than a usual purpose as a red shirt his first year. Veit A quarterback reserve for three years.

He What They Say WOODY HAYES, Ohio State football coach: "Our boys exploded a myth in beating Iowa. Iowa has tried to frighten every team it has played. I do not see any reason why our team wasn't picked as the No. 1 team in the land (Ohio ranked third in both the International Aiews Service and Associated Press polls)." RAY STULL, International News Service sports writer: "With the Big Ten championship dangling in balance and defeat only minutes away, Ohio State's sophomore fullback, Bob White, became a legend in just seven plays. On the seventh smash throush Iowa's defense one of the best in the country he was in the end zone for the victory, the Big Ten title and a trip to the Rose Bowl Writers agree that his performance was one of the greatest ever in the Ohio stadium." Non-Pros Honor Fred Hutchinson WICHITA, KAN.

Km Fred Hutchinson, manager of the St. Louis Cardinals, and Jack Sanford, pitcher for the Philadelphia Phillies, were named Wednesday as "graduates of the year" by the Non-Pro National Baseball Congress.
