Twins Fight Back
In Ninth Inning to
Subdue White Sox

ST. PAUL MINNEAPOLIS,
May 2 (AP)-It's one thrill
after another for the enthused
Minnesota Twins baseball fans.
First the newly coined Wash
ington Senators came to town.
They weren't calculated to
create wild-eyed excitement,
but at least it was major league
baseball.
Then came the go-go Chicago
White Sox with their razzle
dazzle, and the fans perked up.
This was more like it.
And today the Twins enter
tain the New York Yankees, the
team everyone in these parts
has been waiting to see.
May Draw 1900
They've read about the Mick
ey Mantles and the Yogi Berras
and the Moose Skowrons and
the Whitley Fords so much they
are almost legendary figures. so
the coming to town of the
aim ost perennial American
League champions is almost too
much.
How many will turn out for
the series matching the teams
in a virtual tie for second place
is problematical. After all, it is
a Tuesday afternoon game and
some people have to work.
But a reported reserved-seat
sellout indicates a crowd OF
around 1900, despite football
weather which has been stran-
Cling this section Of late. A high
Of SIS was expected for the
game, which will pit Camille
Pascual against the Yankees
Art Ditmar, both unbeaten
pitchers this year.
The fans also want to see
If Mantle can hit a baseball
farther than their own Harmon
Killebrew, who rapidly is be-
coming the Paul Bunyan of the
area. They have revised his
Sunday home run against the
White Sox to 500 feet, but
they've only had two days tt
think it over.
Beat White SOx
The Twins provided the
appetizer for today's game by
taking the final of their two
game series with the White
Sox yesterday, 6-5. A crowd CT
5,777 saw the home club pull
out the game with two down in
the last of the ninth.
Minnie MinoSo tried to make
"a shoestring catch Of Billy
Gardner's liner to left. All he
got was a handful Of grass and
the blow went for two bases
and scored Jim Lemon from
first with the winning run.
The White Sox had gone
ahead, 5-4. in the sixth on a
pair Of pop-fly hitS-a triple
by Roy Sievers and single by
Camilo Carreon-a walk and a
sacrifice fly. after getting their
first three scores on homers by
Jim Lands, Al Smith and Car
reon. Killebrew hit a two-run
homer for Minnesota in the
first and Lemon Clipped in
four singles.

boosted the total for the five
home games to date to 90,703.
The Twins drew 85,792 for 10
road games. Today's game is
the first Of a three-game series
with the league champions.

ABOUT TWO years ago, Harold

selecting the old houses and other
old buildings in Sussex and Kent
Counties, Delaware that were to
be measured photographed and
documented by the National Park
Service (the records to be pre-
served in the Library of Congress)
| One early house called to his
attention was the so-called Mar
tin House" at Cool Spring. about
six miles west of Lewes.

the structure to be an architec-
tural document of the first impor-
lance. 1t is a gambrel-roofed. wea-
therboarded dwelling of half-tim-
Der construction, nogged with
/ brick In every particular, the half
timber work is just as correct as
any to be found in seventeenth
century England
! Investigation showed that Thorn
as Fisher. in 1895. had bought the
land from the original grantee:
that he had willed it to his son,
Joshua. in 1713: and that Joshua
had sold il. with the house on ii,
in 1876. TO agents for James Mar
tin. AS nearly as can be deter
mined. Joshua Fisher built the
house about 1928. To avoid mac
curacy and confusion. it seems
best to designate the place White
Meadow Farm" in accordance with
White Meadow, the original
name of the tract
About the middle of the eigh-
teenth century the house was in
clumsily, indeed. that every fea-
ture of the original structure was
readily recognizable. As built. the
house embodied a late Medieval

good example of how the early
architecture of Sussex and Kent
was inspired by Maryland usage.
Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert H. Joseph,
to whom the property belonged,
realized the Importance of the
house and hoped it could be re-
stored. on the spot, for the County
of Sussex, as the Dickinson Man
sion had been in Kent. When it
became known that the structure

was formed to have the Fisher de-
scendants buy it, with a plot of
ground. and then work for it's res
toration. Under the circumstances,
the farmer agreed to let the house
alone and not store any more
grain in it.
The committee to solicit contri-
buttons from Fisher descendants
consisted of Mrs Henry Ridgely,
Mrs. f. Paul DUPONT. Mrs. James
Biddle Drinker. Benjamin Coates
and Henry Cadwalader.
About a year ago, since the farm
er had heard nothing definite from
the Fisher descendants for some
time, he sold the house and an
acre of land to Harold W. r. Pur-
nell, of Georgetown, whose pur-
chase saved the structure from be-
