j^tJrge Paige For^ | Berth On Allstar H Pitching Staff ? ST. LOUIS (CNS) ? The St. P Louis Browns' owner, Bill Veeck 1 put in a strong plea that Leroy r -Catcher' Paige, who works for the Brotfrnks, be included in the | all-star team, f'l course, I cannot approach 7 Oasey Sengel, who perhaps already has picked his pitchers, to put Paige on his club," Veeck said. "But it would be a fine EM thing for the game and a mcrttH ed distinction for Satch, if Casey &!1 gave him a spot on his staff. And another thing, Stegel could do a H lot worse than use the old guy. ^H^Be it the greatest three inning ^Kj~hurler in baseball, and how about those 10 shutout frames ho I worked against the Senators on |Sj the night of June 20th?" mm paign was simply, "It would be Wf real nice to be picked on the AllW? -Star team." h Whether me American Lea-i H gue manager, Cas y Stengel,' h names Satch or not to the Clas-j | aic held this year in Philadel-; phia on July 8th, the Yankees' are sure in amazement at the I guy* Said Phil Fizzuta as the /Yankees left St. Louis for home: "He (Satch) can throw the ball wherever he likes.

The flight of thu ball that, i /made baseball' history was the wordless reproduction of an Ife;> auctioneer's chant-'going . . goJ J} ing , . . gone!" Wrapped up in this explosive K?Wow of Thompson's was timing, coordination, muscular ability. Anything else?
