The New Orleans pitcher said Larsen’s world series victory, in which no Brooklyn Dodger reached base, highlighted the no wind-up pitch. “Still I don’t believe it had any thing to do with Larsen’s perform ance that afternoon. He would have gotten his no-hitter whether he pumped or not,” Parnell added. Values Good Thursday, Friday, and Saturday at 1010 South College at Pease in Bryan, Texas.

LOUIS — OP) — Frank Lane, baseball’s most energetic trader, headed for Florida Wednesday, faced with the task of bringing a National League pennant to St. Louis by 1958 or else. That’s the way owner August A. Busch Jr., laid it on the line to the Redbird general manager in a talk to the “Knights of the Cauli flower Ear” at their annual spring training party last night. “I expect the Cardinals to come close to winning a pennant in 1957,” Busch said, “and 1958 is going to be a sure thing or Frank Lane will be out.” The Cardinals early spring train ing camp opens tomorrow at St. Petersburg, Fla. That’s where the 60-year-old Lane is headed after accepting his boss’s challenge like this: “Mr. Busch very subtly hinted he’d like a pennant. I’d better be very careful sending out my laun dry late in the ’58 season. Looks like I’m going to be here no longer than three years if I don’t win. “I’m tickled to death to accept Mr. Busch’s challenge. If we don’t win in ’58, I’ll be satisfied to move pn. That’s the rub of the green.” Busch smiled as he delivered his ultimatum to the fast-dealing Lane, w h o’s reshuffled the Cardinals Since coming here from the Chicago White Sox. Observers close to Busch, however, felt he wasn’t kid ding. The Cardinals finished fourth last season in Lane’s first year as general manager after a Seventh- place spot in 1955. Lane will complete a three-year contract with the Cardinals in 1958. He reportedly draws $40,000 a year with an attendance clause that’s understood to have upped his pay to more than $50,000 last season. Si Green, former Duquesne 6 foot 2% basketball star, is with thb Rochester Royals this season. He was the No. 1 choice in the Na tional Basketball Assn, draft. Football Clinic Set March 8-9 For Prepsters A&M has invited football coaches of all the Texas higTi schools and their staffs to at tend a clinic here on March 8-9, according to Athletic Di rector Paul Bryan. The clinic is in line with a num ber of requests for permission to attend the workouts during the Spring training grind of the Ag gies, Southwest Conference cham pions. Seniors off the 1956 squad will lecture and demonstrate techniques Friday afternoon with the staff members, including the new addi tions, lecturing Saturday morning. The visiting coaches will be invited to watch the Saturday afternoon drill. (Continued from page S) Union Carbide, and as the “like father, like son” saying goes, he is majoring in Civil Engineering. ■ The Swisher family has since moved back to South Charleston, W. Va. For the season Neil has mesh ed 97 field goals and 63 free throws in 20 games to run second to teammate George Mehaffey on the Aggie team in scoring with 257 points and a fine season av erage of 12.8. His average in conference is 12.7 on 102 points scored. The value of Swisher to the Ag gies lies not alone in his scoring consistency but for a guard his re bounding is topped by none in the conference. Clearing the boards of 140 rebounds has netted him an average of 7 per game and promp ted Coach Loeffler to call him “the finest 6-1 rebounder I’ve seen.” In the parlay of football, and this is a football school and state, Neil might be termed a ‘p u r s u i t tackier’,” continues Loeffler, “He’s always going for the ball”. Neil’s best game of the year came against Arkansas here in Col lege Station when he poured through 21 points. HEAR - Dr. Bill Sliamburger FEB. 10 - 17 9:00 A M. and 7:00 P.M.
