PETERSBURG, Fla., Dec. 11 P—Once ain, as in the past three asons, the fence-busting Boston Pcd Sox rule a strong fa- an League by ”1(‘ ac- au, the once ! p, the Red Sox day struck fear into the heart - rivals by the completion $500,000 five-man trade with thene of a Chicago that helped where it was needed most—npitching The important deal, first to be consummated at the winter base- ball meetings here, brings to Bos- ton a pair of front line hurlers— lefthander Bil! Wight and right- hander Ray Scarborough—in ex- | change for rightfielder Allen Zarilla | and pitchers Joe Dobson and Dick ! Littlefield All except the rookie Littlefield are veterans of 1 campaigns. Littlefield, a 2\1-,\1‘11 n]d southpaw, came to the Red Sox from Birming- ham last Au and finished with a 2-2 record. Both sides in- sist no money figured in the deal. Wight, 28, won 10 and lost 16 for the second division White Sox last season. Scarborough, who came | to the Sox in a six-man trade with Washington last May, wound up with a 13-18 record. The latter, known as a Red Sox killer over the years, is 32. He has been credited with knocking the Red Sox out of two pennants. Zarilla, 30, had a fine year with Boston hitting 325 in 130 games and knocking in 74 runs. Dobson, 34, had a 15-10 record last y His lifetime mark against Chicago is 17-6. The deal, on the eve of the start | of the major league meetings today, left the leaders of Detroit, Cleve- land and the New York Yankees utterly dismayed. “That makes it rugged,” said a gloomy Red Rolfe, the Tiger man- ager. “If the Red Sox can't win| now they had better give up.” SCORES OF | BASKETBALL Here are the final scores of bas- ketball games played during the weekend: Washington 71, Nebraska 53.
