Cheneys Strong Showing
Boosts Senators Pitchinq
Three Homers
Help Ex-Pirute
Score in Debut
By BILL FUCHS
Star Staff Writer

The Senators pitching force
is looking a bit stronger today
as a result of the showing OF,
Tom Cheney, balding, 26-
year old highlander from
Morgan, Ca, who can't under
stand why he didn't warrant a
better shake from the Pirates.
Cheney, recently purchased
from Columbus of the Interna-
tional league, was not COM
pletely satisfied with his Wash-
ington debut yesterday, but his
new bosses were glad to settle
for it. In going 81s innings,
Cheney doled out eight hits,
three in the ninth inning, as
the Senators won, 7-3, to sweep
the two-game series and shave
Boston's sixth-place lead over
them to 31a games.
The Senators will take their
two-gane winning streak back
to Griffith Stadium tonight
against the Orioles, who come
in for a two-game series. The
Twins open a weekend series
here Friday night.

professional ballplayer, a run
scoring double. Stillwell, bonus
rookie shortstop, will be start
ing again tonight.
We're going to keep on
playing Stillwell, to see how
he does" Manager Mickey Yer
non says. We've got to see
whether he needs more expert
ence or whether he can cut
right in here.
He was very impressive in
both games. I like the way he
stands at the plate. He takes
some pitches a lot of new kids
would swing at.
"As for Cheney, we'll work
him right into our rotation. He
looked real good and he gives
our pitching a real lift"
Trying Too Hard
Cheney said he was far from
satisfied. Il was Wild" he said.
Il walked five. A couple of
walks, maybe three, is usually
my limit, but I was nervous. i
was trying too hard to make an
impression and I never did get

Soviets Predict Rocket
Will Reach Venus Orbit

MOSCOW, Feb. 10 (AP).-
The Soviet Union announced
tonight the 1,148-pound space
station it fired aloft last Sun
day will pass Venus "at a dis
tance of not more than $780,
900 kilometers (about 10000
miles, from the center Of
Venus"
This was the first word from
Soviet authorities on what
would happen to the device
when it reached the orbit of
the bright planet. Previous
Soviet statements merely had
said it was aimed toward Venus
and would reach the area in
late May.
The prediction of The rockets
passage of Venus was based on
a radio report which was re-
ceived from the station yes
terday. At that time the sta
ton was 1.180,625 miles from
the earth and speeding away
at "a miles a second.
Travels Close TO Course
The announcement, issued
through the Tass news agency,
said the station is travelling on
a course ''close to the calculated
one" There was no indication
Of exactly how close it was, or
whether Soviet scientists had
attempted to alter the course.

ceived and carried out by the
apparatus on board the sta
ton"
The apparatus, including So
lar batteries, was reported
functioning normally. The
temperature within the station
was said to vary between 81
and So degrees above zero.
Tass said the station is to
make its closest approach to
Venus at a point about 43 mil
lion miles from the earth,
though it will have travelled
some 1853 million miles along its
own orbit since the launching.
