Don Ferrarese, young rookie lefthander, lost 2-1 but made most of initial start for Baltimore Orioles, striking out 13 Cleveland Indians for best first-game American League performance since Bob Feller fanned 15 in 1937.

Mrs. W. Pepper Constable, newly ranked No. 1 among U.S. squash racquets players, comes by her ability naturally. Her mother Mrs. William Howe was a three-time national champion; twin sister Peggy won titles in 1952 and 1953.

Vassily Smyslov, scholarly Russian doubledome who held World Champion Mikhail Botvinnik to tie in 1953, won the challengers' chess tournament at Amsterdam, and the right to face longtime titleholder again next year.
