Sox Contract, Gets

Chicago CAMP = Juan Pizarro,
whose rise from a bullpen pitcher
to the American Leagues strike
out king, was one of the remark
able achievements in the league
last season, last week signed his
1862 Chicago White Sox contract
for an estimated $1,000, an

The southpaw was one of the

by General Manager Ed Short, in
his campaign to sign up the team
early. Shortstop Luis Aparicio was
the first to sign.
Pizarro got the boost in salary
on the basis of his performance
with the Sox. One of the fastest
pitchers in the league, Pizarro

This record is all the more impress

Explosive Lions
Defeat Vikings
BY Jesse Bell

An explosive Detroit Lions team
came to town last Sunday-spotted
the sometimes brilliant Minnesota
Vikings 10 points, and then crushed
them 37-10. Led by the sure hand
of Earl Morrall, Detroit ran, pass
ed, and out defensed the Vikings.
1t was a frustrating afternoon
for quarterback Fran Tarkenton.
After a fine first quarter Fran
and the Vikings could not get
started. Time and again big Rodger
Brown, Alex Karras, Joe Schmidt,
and Bill Glass were breathing
down Tarkentons back. In the
second half he spent more time on
his back than on his feet. The
Lions defense was tremendous.
The Lions just overpowered the
punchless Vikings. The Vikings
managed to get only SO yards rush
ing and 81 by passing. A mere 126
yards compared to 351 yards gain
ed by Detroit.
This is a fine Detroit club, one
that may win the Western Con-
ference title.
The Vikings must now revamp
their offense and prepare to take
on San Francisco in California
this Sunday.
The next home encounter is with
Los Angeles on December 8, 1861.
We hope to see a lot of you at

Lokers Shocked BY
Egin Baylor Gull
To Army DufV

Los Angeles (ANP) = Coach
Fred Schaus was visibly upset last
week when he received the report
that Elgin Baylor, pride of the
Los Angeles Lakers, must report
for army duty within a month.
Baylor, 26, is married and has
one child. He has already spent
three months in reserve training
during the off-season, but had not
received any previous orders.
Schaus admitted that losing Bay
lor, who averaged 34.8 for the
II Laker games, was a stunning
blow.
Losing the greatest player in
the game is what the order would
mean to me as a coach. I am
stunned"
Baylor is a member of the 63rd
infantry division of the Army Re-
serve. He holds the professional
basketbalps single game scoring
record of II, and had led the LAX
ers in scoring, rebounding and as
sists for two of his three pro sea-
sons.
Teaming with Jerry West, Bay
lor has given the Lakers, in their
second season in Los Angeles, a
strong one-two scoring punch and
a three-game lead in the Western
Division.
There is no present replacement
for the sensational star. The LAX
er's only hope is the possibility
that Baylor's congenital back con-
dition might lessen the possibility
of an early draft. Baylor was I'M

Ernie B0nkS Not
For Sale. Ever
Cubs Coach Saws

Chicago (ANP)-If other teams
in either the National League and
American League have ideas about
trading with the Chicago Cubs for
slugger Ernie Banks, they had
better forget it.
Banks is just not for sale, and
that's definite.
The firm declaration came from
no less an authority than Coach
Elvin Tape, one of the four ro-
tating field generals for the Cubs
last season, and who was in COM
mand in 95 of the 1874 games.
Tape rotated with Harry Graft,
Vedie Himsl, a Lou Klein.
Wrigley Supports Stand
Ernie was born and raised a
Cub and he'll live and die a Cub, "
Tape told luncheon audience of
the Quarterback Club here Monday
Nov. 49,, to emphasize the point
that the Cubs don't intend to trade
the slender Negro slugger, now or
ever.
His reference to Banks being
born a Cub apparently stemmed
from the fact that Ernie never
played day of minor league base
ball, but came directly to the Cubs
from the Negro American League,
where he had played with the Kan
sas City Monarchs.
Tape said he wasn't just offer
ing his own opinion on the matter,
explaining:
TITS a firm pledge I've often
heard from Mr.. Wrigley Owner
P. K.) as well as John Holland
(Cubs vice PRESIDENT"
One OF Greatest
Tape had more laudatory prais-
es for Banks.
Banks is one Of the GREATEST
players the Cubs have ever had
and you don't get rid of fellows
like that" he stated.
Last season due to an injured leg
and a strained muscle in his left
eye, Banks homerun output, u.s.
ually around 40 or more, dipped
considerably and there was some
loose talk about trading him.
However, Tapes firm state
ment with Wrigley's backing put
the damper on such rumors and
clarified the clubs position on
Banks.
Tape did say, however, that
Banks may be shifted from his
regular shortstop position. But
even that seems to depend on how
well Ernie RECEIVERS from the in
juries by next season. When last
seen here, Banks said the leg felt
"OK", but didn't elaborate.
Williams, SantO Praised
Another tan Cub who was
praised by Tape was Billy Will
Hams, who wound up with the MI
Rookie-of-the-Year award after a
spectacular season. He and third
baseman Ron Santo, who won the
leagues sophomore award, are two
of the brightest young stars on the
team, Tape indicated.
