DANE WINS TOURNEY

LEAVES FOR LOUISVILLE
BURBANK, Calif. (UPI)—Silver Spoon, C. V. Whitney's filly who is co-favorite in the winter book to win the Kentucky Derby, left here by plane Sunday for Louisville, Ky., scene of the Derby.
Finsterwald, of Tequesta, Fla., picked up $2,000 as a result of his six-over-par 77 on Sunday's final round which gave him a total of 278 strokes and a two-stroke margin over Masters champion Art Wall of Pocono Manor, Pa.
The new champion came in saying he thought the gallery had been "fair to everybody but me."
"I think maybe I'll give them (the GGO) $500 and not come back (to defend) next year," he said.
Wall started the round over-the-par-71 Starmount Forest Country Club course five strokes back of Finsterwald but was unable to catch the 29-year-old 1958 PGA champion.
Only two players broke par for the day, Slamming Sam Snead and Doug Ford of Paradise, Fla., a pair of tournament-tested veterans, firing 70s.
Snead's 70 jumped him from 17th place at 54 holes to a tie for third at 281, while Ford's 70 gave him a tie for eighth at 284. Snead was 10 strokes behind Finsterwald at the beginning of the final round but finished just three strokes back.
Billy Casper of Apple Valley, Calif., who came in with a fourth-day 72, gained a tie with Snead for third at 281. Two strokes back at 283 were Tom Nieporte of Bronxville, N.Y. Peter Thomson of Melbourne, Australia, and Billy Maxwell of Odessa, Tex.

Siebern S
NEW YORK (UPI) — Siebern says he's paying back a debt he owes York's Yankees.
Siebern's initial payment the form of an eight-inning run that brought the Yankees 3-2 opening game victory over the Red Sox in frigid gree temperature at Yankee stadium.
"I owe Casny a whole lot," Siebern said quietly, without tend to dramatize. "I don't see anyone can get lower than after what happened in the Series, but he stuck with me you can bet I'm going to give a little extra.
His appearance in leftfield day at Yankee Stadium was first there since he butchered the fourth game of last World Series and helped Mke take a three-games-to-one in the classic.
"You'd better believe I much happier man right now I was the last time I was he grinned as he toweled him front of his locker following game-winning wallop.
"Casey didn't have to go me as long as he has," Siebern added. "I'm just trying to him for what he has done."
When Siebern's gratitude relayed to Stangel, the Y manager said he was happy it.
"There never was any quarrel about his hitting." Casey "but we started to worry"

Giants, White Sox Lead Thanks to Big Hitting
The potent bats of Orlando Cepeda and Sherman Lollar have unbeaten San Francisco Giants and Chicago White Sox off and running today in starts that take the edge off perfect getaways by the favored pennant-contenders.
Neither the Milwaukee Braves nor the New York Yankees has lost a game but a look at the standings shows that each has ground to make up. The Giants' three-game sweep of the St. Louis Cardinals gave them a half-game edge on the Braves and the White Sox' three-game wrapup of the Detroit Tigers has earned them a one-game lead over the Yankees.
Standings at this stage of the race don't mean much, of course, but the point is that two strong contenders—not two heavily favored defending champions—have made the most of the few games played so far.
Cepeda, the National League "rookie of the year" in 1958 when he hit .312, delivered the key blow in a 6-3 victory Sunday after driving in four of the Giants' five runs Saturday night. The Giants had rallied to tie at 3-3 on Willie Mays' two-run triple but the score was still tied when Cepeda went to bat with two out and Jim Davenport on base in the ninth.
Turley Wins Opener
The 21-year-old native of Ponce, P.R., snapped the tie with a triple that put the Giants ahead, 4-3, and Felipe Alou followed with a homer that gave them their final margin of victory.
Lollar, who is hitting .533 and has driven in five runs in three games, drove in two runs Sunday as the White Sox beat the Tigers, 5-3. Lollar had three hits in each of the White Sox' first two victories and has made eight safeties in 15 tries.
The world champion New York Yankees finally got under way after two rain-outs and beat the Boston Red Sox, 3-2, on World Series hero Bob Turley's two-hitter and the Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Chicago Cubs, 5-3, in the only other games.
Al Worthington, who took over in the eighth inning, picked up the San Francisco victory after lefty Mike McCormick yielded three runs and six hits in seven innings. The Cardinals scored all their runs in the first inning aided by errors by Alou, Cepeda and Andre Rodgers but Vinegar Bend Mizell couldn't hold the lead against the hard-hitting Giants.

Series hero Bob Turley's two-hitter and the Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the Chicago Cubs, 5-3, in the only other games.
Al Worthington, who took over in the eighth inning, picked up the San Francisco victory after lefty Mike McCormick yielded three runs and six hits in seven innings. The Cardinals scored all their runs in the first inning added by errors by Alou, Cepeda and Andre Rodgers but Vinegar Bend Mizell couldn't hold the lead against the hard-hitting Giants.
Siebern Homers
Lollar singled home a White Sox run in the first inning and then scored on rookie Norm Cash's first major league homer but the Tigers pecked away at Dick Donovan until they drew even in the bottom of the fifth. The White Sox took the lead right back in the sixth on Jim Landis' triple and Lollar's single and added an insurance run in the eighth on two errors and Al Smith's sacrifice fly.
Norm Siebern, playing his first game at Yankee Stadium since his losing duel with the sun in the fourth game of the 1958 World Series, homered in the eighth to get the defending world champions off to a successful start. Turley didn't yield a hit until Pete Runnels doubled in the seventh and wasn't touched for the second Red Sox hit until Vic Wertz singled with two out in the ninth. Singles by Siebern, Yogi Berra, Gil McDougald and Marv Throneberry produced a 2-0 Yankee lead in the first inning.
Don Demeter's two-run seventh-inning double put the Dodgers ahead, 4-3, and a double by Gill Hodges and a single by Ron Fairly produced an insurance run in the eighth. Johnny Klippstein, who pitched the middle three innings, gained credit for the win although Clem Labine finished up. Labine allowed two hits and one walk and struck out one in his three frames.

KANSAS CITY, Mo., April 9 — Just four hours ago, 47 men and women, drivers in the 1959 Mobilgas Economy Run, wearily crossed the finish line in front of the Muehlebach Hotel. They were dog-tired after 4½ days and 1,898 miles of some of the toughest driving I've ever seen.
Powered by Mobilgas Special, stock cars representing every U.S. make started from Los Angeles' Civic Center at dawn on April 5. First across the blistering desert, then up, up to 11,988 feet and over the jagged spine of the Rockies, then over the prairies. And by the end of the Run they had bucked 342 miles of traffic in 147 towns and cities. Deserts, mountains, prairies and cities—running at maximum legal speeds all the time!
One of the drivers summed it up for me: "Toughest, most demanding grind I've ever been through. But when I needed it, Mobilgas Special came through with plenty of smooth, knock-free power. And it came through with plenty of economy, tool!"

Siebern Starts to Pay Back Yanks
NEW YORK (UPI) — Solemn form Siebern says he's simply going back a debt he owes New York's Yankees.
Siebern's initial payment took form of an eight-inning home that brought the Yankees a opening game victory Sunday at the Red Sox in frigid 42-degree temperature at Yankee Stadium.
I owe Casey a whole lot." Siebern said quietly, without tempting dramatize. "I don't see how anyone can get lower than I was ever what happened in the World Series, but he stuck with me and can bet I'm going to give him little extra.
His appearance in leftfield Sunday at Yankee Stadium was his first since he butchered up fourth game of last year's World Series and helped Milwaukee take a three-games-to-one lead in the classic.
"You'd better believe I'm a much happier man right now than was the last time I was here," grinned as he toweled himself front of his locker following his nine-winning swallop.
"Casey didn't have to go with me as long as he has," Siebern added. "I'm just trying to repay for what he has done."
When Siebern's gratitude was payed to Stengel, the Yankee manager said he was happy to bear it.
"There never was any question about his hitting." Casey said, but we started to worry about whether he could do the job in left field after all the trouble he had in the World Series."
The Yankees thought the trouble might be Siebern's eyes, so they sent him for an examination after the series and the doctor advised the outfielder to wear eye glasses "all the time."
Siebern turned up at spring training wearing glasses for the first time and promptly proceeded to strike out seven times in his first nine appearances at the plate.
"We couldn't figure it out," Stengel explained, scatching his head. "After all, he had hit 300 last season without the glasses and there were only three other men on my club that did that good. A lot of guys who don't wear glasses on this club didn't do half as good as Siebern at the plate."
Casey continued to play Siebern during the spring, however, and when the season opened the lanky, blond fly-chaser had logged more innings than any other player on the club.
"I had to stay with the man," Stengel grunted. "He hit .286 in spring training, got on base a lot and ran all the other left-fielders off the position."
In addition to his homer Sunday, Siebern collected a pair of singles to account for three of the Yankees' eight hits.
