It was off to Baltimore for a game with the Chicago White Sox, then to Minnesota for the series with the Twins and out to Los Angeles for the games with the Angels.

And in the end he was showing symptoms of becoming an Oriole fanatic...
...last August, and they styled her la B. B. américaine. Now, after a brief period of adjustment, Vassar-bred Jane Fonda, 26, is taking a walk on the wild side with the original Bardolator, Director Roger Vadim, 36.

With just 27 games to play, it is still anybody's race-and the fans love...
Gorgon & Thor. Hank Bauer is the kind of man everybody wants for a friend-because only a suicide would want him for an enemy. When he frowns, Gorgon shudders. When he talks, Thor answers. He is all bituminous at heart, but he is hewn of anthracite. Bauer looks, says one Oriole player, "like an M-l ready to go off." He commands respect, he commands obedience, and he commands a certain amount of controversy. His own boss, Oriole General Manager Lee MacPhail, calls him "no great shakes as a baseball strategist" and says that he "manages by instinct." But Third...
