Gander Pitchers Shine as Paris Stirs State Tourney
Gander shows depth with two right-handers Dansie Walker and Fred Huey. Walker goes four innings, fending off Paris despite a 1-1 loss and delivering a sharp curve and sinker. Huey mixes a curve and fastball, striking out six through six. Barry Lancaster, star catcher for Starborough Red Sox, shines as a top 1955 prospect.

Giants Struggle as Durocher Reaches for Pitching Fix
The New York Giants face a tough stretch under Leo Durocher after a second game collapse. Jim Hearn pitched well with a 1-0 lead aided by Bobby Hofman’s homer, but a late single by Ernie Banks and a walk to Dee Fondy unraveled the bid for a shutout. Clyde McCullough' s spot in the lineup saw Frankie Baumholtz bat, and Baumholtz delivered Grissom's first pitch into the right-field seats, sealing the defeat.

Fort Worth Pitcher Talks Of Stuff And Other Notes
Fort Worth right-hander Mike Lemish with a 3-7 record says he’s never pitched with better stuff. The Yankees eye a winter tour of Japan as a possible move. Karl Spooner’s baby’s name is Karen Rae. Pirates, unused to overflow crowds, recall 1890 when 17 showed up for a league game. J. Roy Stockton says Cardinals will improve under a new manager, as under Eddie Stanky, with better pitching. Dicky Moegel is named youngest member of the all-time All-Cotton Bowl team. A North Texas writer riffs on Chalmer Woody Woody and John Roach as QB. Phil Woolpert, SFU coach, advised at Texas High School Coaching School. Gallagher jokes he’d tutor Woolpert on the fast break.
