Parkway and Hunt Teams Win Contests The City softball fans saw two crowd pleasing games last night at City park as Parkway Cafe fortified its hold on the National League by downing Stanton 10-3. In the nightcap Hunt Foods remains undefeced in league play as they won a thriller from the Anaheim Merchants 8-4. Parkway two hurlers, Raul Sanchez and Louie Deleon, combined efforts and held Stanton to four hits. Meanwhile the Inn men were bombing the offerings of Ralph Mujica and Raul Lemus. Manuel Napoles, Parkway's hustling short stop, banged out four hits in five trips to the plate, and had a hand in the scoring of seven of their runs. Stanton's James Fernandez hit the big blow of the game when he blasted a two run triple in the second inning to put Stanton ahead 2-0. The Anaheim Merchants played what was probably their best ball game of the season and lost to the power laden Hunt Foods team. The Merchants scored first on Lynn Brown's lead off single, Bill Hoag sacrificed him to second where he scored on Frank Perez' single to center field. The Duane Winter's outfit tied it up in the second on Knox Boyd's single, backed up by Bob Gray's single to left field. Bob Thompson tripped for the Merchants and scored on a wild peg to the plate. Then in the Local Baseball Anaheim Junior Legion baseballers go after the hot-shot Fullerton nine in a two-game set this weekend in what may make or break either of the teams' standings for the season. The big game for local fans is Sunday afternoon at La Palma park when the two teams square off at 2:15. First game of the series will be at Amerlge park, in Fullerton, tomorrow at 2:15 p.m. Monterey Park Takes Lynx, 6-2 The Buena Park Lynx met Monterey Park last night—and the Lynx were snared, 8 to 2. The game was played at Buena Park. Monterey Park batters were hotter than a fire cracker in the first two innings, then fizzled the remainder of the game. Even so, the eight runs they got in the first two frames were more than enough to bag the game. In the first inning the visitors scored two runs on two hits. In the second frame six singles by Monterey Park, combined with a couple of BP errors, resulted in six big runs being scored. After the second inning, MP got one hit. The Lynx scored their two in the fourth inning. Wally Waldo singled. Lu Mahoney, of Anaheim, flied out. Caroline Broady was on... power laden Hunt Foods team. The Merchants scored first on Lynn Brown's lead off single, Bill Hoag sacrificed him to second where he scored on Frank Perez' single to center field.

Then in the sixth Hunt Foods moved out in front on singles by John Boden, Chuck King, Bob Gray, Ed Heinz, Gene Piantoni and a bases clearing double by big Chris DeSota. Merchants scored two more in the seventh on Lynn Brown's single and Pitcher Macaray's double.

If You Drink: Don't Drive Los Angeles Rams 'Trade a Team to All-American Linebacker Richter LOS ANGELES UP—The more flippant ones decided today that the Los Angeles Rams traded a football team for one player when the acquired California's All-America inebacker, Les Richter, from the New Dallas Texans in their big deal. True, the Texans get title to 11 players and the champion Rams obtain the agile, 230-pound belter from Berkeley in their bid for another National Football league crown. Actually, of the 11 men, only two, fullback Dick Hoerner and defensive halfback Tom Keane, may be labelled solid bets; a few ma ybe potential stars; some may be guys named Joe, and some others are of doubtful availability. For both the Rams and the Texans, the deal is one of the biggest gambles, and one of the numerically largest, in NFL history. HERE ARE the players the Rams traded to Dallas: Hoerner, 220-pounder from Iowa, five years with Los Angeles; Keane, from West Virginia, four years in the league, who can play end on offense as well as defense. Center Joe Reid, Louisiana State, and Jack Halliday, Southern Methodist tackle, both rookies with the Rams in 1951. Quarterback Dave Anderson, free agent from Arkansas A and M. Halfback George (Gabby) Sims, ex-Baylor star, formerly with the Rams, now in the Army. Los Angeles Dons under Phelan, now the Texans in 1949.

He'll be doused help to us." Stydahs Richter, 21, from Fresno may work as guard on of Daniel F. Reeves, e president of the Rams, club got other considera addition to Richter. He did what.

(P)—Four more swims and Florence Chadwick is going to call it quits, "win, lose or die." The only woman to swim the English channel both ways, the 32-year-old former stenographer is going to take one final crack at the Channel in August. Before she heads for England this summer, the attractive, vivacious mermaid will attempt to break three other records. First is a June 28 Catalina Island to the mainland trip. She hopes to break George Young's record for that crossing. Then she'll head for Beirut, Lebanon for a crack at the Hellespont (Dardantles). Once that little chore of five miles is over with, she'll move on to Tarifa, Spain, and churn across the shark-infested Straits of Gibratar. "By then I should be in perfect condition for an August try at Tom Blower's record of 15 hours." I did it in 16:19 last year and I believe I can do much better. "I started serious training on Grossinger lake three weeks ago," she said. "I swim about three or four hours every day. I don't intend to swim too much now because I don't want to reach peak condition until August for the Channel. I'm about 10 pounds overweight now, 152, and would like to retain the extra weight. "I plan to leave New York by plane for Catalina on June 23. I'll get out there on the 24th and make the swim on the 28th. The Catalina swim is about 21 miles if you make it straight but no one does, George Young went about 24 or 25 miles when he set the record of 15 hours, 40 minutes in 1927." Then it's the Hellespont, Gibraltar and the Channel for Miss Chadwick. "After that, win, lose or die, that's it.

BROWNIES HAPPY IN HORNSBY EXIT BOSTON — All of the St. Louis Browns were surprised by the Rogers Hornsby firing. But the lack of warning did not prevent them from obtaining an elaborate trophy to commemorate the managerial change-over to Marty Marion. When President Bill Veeck entered their Fenway Park dressing room before the team's win over the Red Sox, he was presented with a handsome two-foot silver cup surmounted by a golden batter by pitcher Ned Garver in behalf of his now happy teammates. It bore the inscription—"To Bill Veeck for the greatest play since the Emancipation Proclamation. June 10, 1952. From the players of the St. Louis Browns."

"But we have always thought richter was one of the country's greatest payers. He'll be tremendous help to us," Stydahar said. Richter, 21, from Fresno, also may work as guard on offense. Daniel F. Reeves, energetic resident of the Rams, said his club got other considerations in addition to Richter. He didn't say what. In Dallas, an official of the Rams said the club actually got only three payers—Keane, Hoerer and Simms—in exchange for cliter, and paid a "substantial" sum of money for the other eight.

The plan, announced June 3, calls for televising one major college game nationally each Saturday from Sept. 20 through Nov. 29. The program also includes telecasts on Thanksgiving Day, Nov. 27, and on Friday nights or Sundays. The same colleges may not appear more than once on the TV network and small college games may be televised locally on as many dates as practicable. The next step is for the NCAA to open negotiations for a sponsor. Softball Tonight Industrial League (La Palma Park) 7:15—Robertshaw-Fulton vs Knott's Farm.
