Chiefs take

Second straight From Royals

MONTREAL. $61M. l4—(CP)- Montreal Royals dropped the second straight game of the International League senu-iirial playoff to Syra- cuse Chiefs here tonight, 4-2, be- cause of their failure to hit Clay- ton Lambert at opportune times and also because of the inability oi rookie southpaw Steve Nagy to keep from feeding a home run ball to Dutch Mele.

Melc. who blew two homers over the rizlit field wall in the opener on Sunday, blasted another off Nazi's delivery on his first trip to the plate. There were two men a- board and thus the Chiefs scored sufficient runs in the opening inn- lnz to win the ﬂame.

NEW YORK. Sept. I4—(AP>- Baseball loses one of the most rui- ged of its rugged indivioualists in the retirement of Billy Werber. who ls wisely folding his tent before he begins to fold himself.

The Giant third baseman. suf- ferinz the miseries as a result of a sore toe and lame hip, is going back to his Maryland home and his thriving insurance business, and thrivimz is the right word.

It's said he has written policies on half the players in the major leazue. and that one reason the Reds won two pennants while he was with them is that the players on the other teams were afraid to advance as far as third base for fear he'd have them signed for a $5,000 double indemnity while they were waiting for the hit and run,
