Missourians to Play Ottawa and Baker in Area Games
Southeast Missouri State College Indians from Cape Girardeau arrive in Ottawa late this afternoon for two area games. They meet Baker University at Baldwin tomorrow and Ottawa U at Wilson Field House Saturday. Coach Ralph Pink touts precise play and has scoring punch led by Mel McFarland who scored 38 against Southwestern University of Texas. McFarland’s speed and eye for the basket raise questions if he can reach that output against Ottawa or Baker. Practice in Wilson Field House set for 6:30 tonight. Saturday’s game starts at 8:30.

Cubs May Land Centerfielder in Trade Talk
Speculation swirls that the Chicago Cubs may acquire a centerfielder with Gene Baker at second base. Ritchie Ashburn and Lee Walls were named as possibilities, with a Cubs Pirates deal possibly nearer. The club sent catcher Joe Hannah to Los Angeles for K C Wise, a 24 year old rookie infielder. Bob Scheffing says a top center fielder is essential, worth more than a high batting average. A UNC football note follows about losses to the 1957 squad.
