Hershon's hurling job included 16 St. Paul First Sacker Exchanged for Melton, Orengo -and Large Sum Brooklyn, August 15. W) Howard Schultz, towering first baseman of the St Paul Club of the American Association, was purchased today by the Dodgers in exchange for Rube Melton, right-handed pitcher; infieldcr Joe Orengo and an undisclosed amount of money estimated at $40,000. This latest step in the reconstruction of the Dodgers was announced by President Branch Rickey before the start of the doubleheader with St.

Louis Cardinals. "This is not an orlinary deal," commented Rickey. "It is a big deal involving a lot of money. Schultz is a fast runner and has power as a batter. He is also a strong thrower.

After my recent visit to St Louis I went to St Paul and saw mm piay several games." Schultz, who has a batting average of .294, is expected to leave St Paul for New York tonight Leo Du-rocher, manager of the Dodgers, said he will put the new first baseman in the lineup as soon as he reports. Schultz. a right handed thrower and batter, is 21 years old, six feet 6Vi inches tall and weighs 20U pounds. He is single, but because of his height he has been classified 4-F in the draft. Melton, who was purchased from the Phillies last winter for $30,000, was sent to St.

Paul on option. Orengo. one of three players the Dodgers obtained from the Giants in the recent deal involving the now retired Dolph CamiJli, was released outright. Judson, and pitting Larry Moquin against Al Dunlop, Toronto grap-pler, were the weekend announcements of Eddie Quinn, Forum's wrestling match-maker. These are the two more important preliminaries to the finish match, in which Bobby Managoff returns to Montreal to face Whipper Billy Watson, the Toronto matman, next Wednesday.

Many believe that Watson, who has conquered McCready, Ka-tan. and Robert, in that order, has a first-rate chance to overthrow Managoff. Lewis, now his "early fifties, many times claimant of the world's title, comes here at his own demand. He served as match-maker, and wrestler, for a time, in Detroit this spring, and one of his threats was to clean the "freaks" out of the game. His first, and last, essay in that direction, was in a match here with Andre Vadnais.

the Quebec Angel, but this back-fired on Lewis, for the as he termed Vadnais pinned him. He comes here to redeem himself. Moquin, viewed by many as Yvon Roberts successor a burly customer in Dunlop, who turned from wrestling to refereeing, and back again to wrestling. He is from Toronto. Watson is expected to arive here today, and finish up training for the bout A fourth bout is to be signed today.
