White Sox Get
Pizzoro In 3
Club Deal
BY LOUISE THOMAS

Chicago (ANP) - Climaxing a
desperate campaign by President
Bill Veeck to bolster the teams
pitching with front line hurler,
the Chicago White Sox last week
acquired Juan Pizaro, the Puerto
Rican leftie, in a three-club trade
which also brought Cal McLish
to the Pale Hose and sent Roy
Mcmillan to the Milwaukee Braves
and third baseman Gene Freeze
and pitcher Joey Jay to Cincin-
natl.
Veeck acquired the hard-throw-
ing Pizarro after the little pitcher
had been, traded to Cincinnati by
the Braves, along with Jay. For
Pizarro, the Sox gave up Freeze
and in turn received McLish from
Cincinnati.
The Braves, meanwhile, got the
slick-fielding shortstop Mcmillan.
The Braves, with General Manager
Johnny McHale calling the shots,
are going all out to strengthen
their infield. Earlier, they had ac-
quired Tigers second baseman
Frank Boiling in a deal that sent
centerfielder Billy Bruton to De-
troit.
Elated over landing Pizarro, who
was minor league sensation with
Jacksonville before joining the
Braves, Veeck said:
I'VE feel that the White Sox
lost the pennant last season main
ly because of bad pitching. This
move was calculated to improve
that department"
Pizarro last season had a 6-7
record with the Braves. He ap-
peared in 81 games, starting IT
and finishing only three. He gave
up 105 hits in the 1142s innings
he worked, allowed II walks, reg
istered 88 strikeouts and wound up
with a 4.54 earned run-average.
Pizarro, as a starter, is inclined
to wildness in the early innings but
is hard to beat once he has set
tied down.

also to deal with other unpleasant
matters. Among other things, the
firm required the fullest coopera-
ton of managers, fighters and CO.
promoters. And in several cases,
some of these fighters were re-
portedly controlled by managers
who were themselves controlled
by underworld figures.
The IBC had only one way of do
ing all this, Gibson said, and that
was by dealing directly with the
people who controlled the boxers
and their managers, no matter who
they were. This insured the smooth
operation required, the softspoken,
bespectacled lawyer reasoned. He
insisted, however, that he and Nor
ris always sought to give the box
ers a square deal.
Wealthy from real estate tran
sactions and merchant marine
operation, Norris, who also owns
the Chicago Black Hawks hockey
team and a stable of race horses,
along with his partner Arthur
Wirtz, provided the money to fin
ance IBC operations, while Gibson
provided the brains and executive
knowhow. The three formed a pow
erful triumvirate.
The IBC, in a sense, was Glib
sons brainchild. While helping
Louis to clear up some business
matters, he repeatedly dreamed up
the idea of getting Joe to retire
and help promote a heavyweight
championship fight between Ez-
zard Charles and Walcott in Chi
cago in 1949. From that point the
IBC expanded its operation until it
touched virtually every boxer and
manager in the business.
Gibson Attacked
The whole trouble for the IBC
came when certain sports writers
started attacking Gibson, charging
him with being a front man fol-
rack teers. They apparently
thought he was the weakest link
in the operation and decided to
get him. So Truman, a member OF
one of the most prominent Chicago
Negro families, was harried out OF
the boxing business and the IBC
fell by the wayside.
OF course, direct exploitation IL
not the only danger besetting Ne
gro prize fighters. Many, like Louii
fall hopeless victims to income

Last week, statistics released by
the league publicity office put the
Philadelphia Warrior pivotman in

was averaging S5.2 per game.
Both the 7-foot Chamberlain and
the 6-5 Baylor saw their per game

Bruton Philosophical
HofeS To Leave
Milwaukee BToVes

Milwaukee (ANP) - Although
he confessed that he hated leaving
Milwaukee and the successful
Braves, centerfielder Billy Bruton
expressed the hope that his pres
ence in the Detroit Tigers lineup
will serve to park up the American
League team.
Bruton, who enjoyed his best
season in the major leagues with
the Braves last season, was traded
recently to the Tigers along with
three other players for second
baseman Frank Boiling and anoth-
er player still to be named by the
Detroiters.
Bruton expressed the desire to
help the Tigers when he was asked
if the four-for-two deal, including
a top-flight player like himself,
didn't hurt his pride. Actually, he
is looking forward to playing in
Detroit, he said, adding:
Sure, I hate to leave Milwau-
kee, but I don't think it will take
me long to get adjusted.
Il know I'm leaving a pennant
contender, but I've never been on a
club that has finished below third
and maybe I can keep the streak
going"
Billy also said he feels that hav-
ing known Bob Scheffing person
ally as a coach on the Braves staff
will make it easier for him to ad-
just with the Tigers. Scheffing was
recently named manager Of the
Tigers.
Moving to Detroit, Bruton will
take along his wife and four-year-
old son, Billy, Jr.

" commented on it.
You really have developed
a fashion sense" I said, re-
minding her of how she used
to dress when she first came
to Hollywood.
II was a beatnik before
they had a name for it,"
Shelley laughed. Il was con-
sciously sloppy. Except for
my job or a definite party,
I never dressed. I used to go
around in slacks and a
sweater or anything that was
comfortable. A sense of in
security makes you do
strange things" she unused.
The beatnik philosophy is
a preparation for failure. I
used to feel that everyone
was against me. When I was
unpleasant, I used to feel,

fancy restaurants in New
York. I had lots of bread
and butter. rich desserts and
snacks before going to sleep.
I went from a size 10 to a Is.
I told the studio that they
would have to lend me clothes
because I didn't want to own
a thing in that size.
Dieting
"I didn't realize when I ac-
cepted the part that the
shooting time would last so
long. Including time for re-
takes, it was nine months
before I was allowed to re-
duce. I didn't feel well fat,
and it had an awful effect
on my personality. I didn't
go anywhere or want to see
my friends.
when it was over, I
started dieting Immediately
and I lost 10 pounds in one
week. But" Shelley added,
"the second week I hardly
lost a pound. So I went to a
doctor. He told me that be-
cause I had been overweight
for so long I had reached a
plateau of resistance and
that my body had to make
a metaboliSm adjustment.
so I would diet strenuously
and then ease off and wait
for a couple of weeks while
my body adjusted. 1t is far
wiser to have a more gradual
decline but a permanent one.
If you press it, the pounds
you lose with drugs won't
stay off.
II learned great deal from
this experiment" Shelley con-
fessed, about myself and
about my appetite. 1t took
me almost a year to wear my
old clothes comfortably"
You really look wonder
full now," I told her.
"I didn't ruin my health
and my body didn't get flabby
because I had lots of exer-
else. I concentrated on exer-
else and went to a gym four
times a week. There is great
satisfaction in looking well
and feeling well. 1t helps to
keep a slender image in your
mind. You have to have
incentive.
Il know myself to be an
emotional eater. This habit
is difficult to break, so I had
nothing in my house that
wasn't good for me. If I went
to raid the ice box, I found
celery and carrot sticks. Many
people have the problem of
turning to food when they
feel Illustration.
You have to adjust to a
more realistic approach to
the purpose of food, which is
to relieve hunger. And this
is something quite different
from an emotional appetite.
When you feel yourself weak
ening, concentrate on the
advantages of resisting i'm
mediate temptation for the
pleasure you'll have in reach
ing your goal" Shelley con-
cluded.
