BROOKLYN, N. Y, June S.
Charlie Dresser, Dodgers man
ager, today called the 10-player
trade between Pittsburgh and
Chicago that sent Ralph Kiner
to the Cubs "a deal that will
help both clubs"
However, the consensus among
players and officials of the
Dodgers and Milwaukee Braves
was that if the Pirates didn't
receive a lot of money in the
transaction they were cheated.
Pittsburgh should have got
ten 100000 along with those

of Roy Campanella, Dodgers

Other players guessed the
Cubs threw in between 500, 900
and 100000 in the deal.

CHICAGO, June 5.-Sonny
Dixon, so keyed up about his first
major league starting assignment
six weeks ago that he chain
smoked cigarettes practically the
entire previous night, has settled
down to become one of the more
respected members of the Mats

With two steady seven-hitters
that led to defeats for the Red
SoX and Browns in his only start
ing roles since he was smacked
around by the Athletics in April,
Dixon has sealed a steady job.
Good performances in relief
roles earned Sonny a shot as
starter against Boston last week
and he subdued the Red Sox,
2-1. Last night he pitched an
other Seven-hitter against st.
Louis and received 15-hit support
to crush the Browns. 10-1.

Branch Hickey, general manager

players. Some fans approved
the trade, Hickey said, while
others disagreed emphatically.

Cubs, 6-1, for their third straight
