DETROIT FANS PLEASED BUT NOT IN CLEVELAND CLEVELAND (AP) -- "Frank Lane just threw away the pen- nant!" That was the outraged com- ment of one Clevela Indians fan after learning that the In- dians' general manager had traded Rocky Colavito to Detroit for Harvey Kuenn. Reaction of fans to the trade sending the highly popular slug- ger to Detroit was mixed Sunday night, but most was unfavorable. The Cleveland Plain Dealer said its sports desk was swamped with telephone calls and pre- dicted that the Kuenn-Colavito trade could "touch off the big- gest maelstrom here since the be- loved Lou Boudreau was sold by grader Carol Kickel: "I belong to one of the Rocky Colavito fan clubs.

AMERICAN LEAGUE Ike To First Ball By JOE REICHLER Associated Press Staff Writer The American League is all set fo get going today with President Eisenhower set to throw out the ball for the Washington game between the Senators and Boston Red Sox. On Tuesday, seven days after the National League raised its 1960 curtain, all teams will open a fullscale drive for the flag currently held by Chicago White Sox. The experts figure this to be a waste of effort for all but the White Sox, New York Yankees and Cleveland Indians. Although probably aware that the Senators and Red Sox have been picked to finish eighth and seventh, respectively, some 28,000 hopefuls were expected at Grif- fith Stadium to see the winner take over undisputed possession of first place. | Hurl Johnny Salowski put St. Mary's back in the game with an assist | from Bill Dionne to set the score [at 21 at the end of the first Y BASEBALL 'SCORES STANDINGS | 5 ms cavanan ress. | Vote Trembla National League w Pct.

ZAP)--A 2- year-old youth rated as one of the most skillful boxers at the University of Wisconsin, died Sunday from a brain injury suffered in a U.S. collegiate title fight April 9. Charles Mohr, a senior from Merrick, N.Y., died without re- gaining consciousness from the time of admittance less than an hour after his fatal bout eight days before. Mohr, the 1959 National Col- legiate Athletic Association 165- pound champion, was injured in losing his title on a second- round technical knockout to Stu Bartell of San Jose State College of California. A clever southpaw noted for his ability to escape punishing blows, Mohr was knocked down for the first time in his col- legiate career by a tremendous right hand punch midway through the second round. Mohr quickly regained his feet and took a mandatory nine- second count standing but ran into other hard punches before the referee could stop the bout.
