The Yankees also picked up Tom Upton, reserve infielder, from |the Senators and sent Outfielders Jackie Jensen and Archie Wilson, Pitcher Frank Shea and Minor League Infielder Jerry Snyder to the Washington club. The players will report to their new clubs Sunday. The 6-man deal involved no cash. The trade, ru- mored since the start of the spring training season, was announced at a news conference called by the New York club. Although Manager Casey Sten- gel bas repeatedly said he had the six best outfielders in the Ameri- can League, the outer defense of the New York club has been a shuttle affair since the start of the season. Noren, a fancy fielder, was pur- chased by Washington from the Brooklyn farm system in the win- ter of 1949-50 and has been with the club since. He hit .279 last year. He is a southpaw swinger |and is 27 years old. Upton played part of last sea- son with Kansas City and then was recalled by the St. Louis Browns. He was dealt to Chicago, who traded him to the Senators in the off season. He is 25 and batted 198 last year with the Browns. Jensen, former California foot- ball great, also is a centerfielder and batted .298 with the 1951 Yan- kees after spending part of the year at Kansas City. Archie Wilson played with Buf- falo last year and was rated the most valuable player in the Inter- national League. Shea, portly right- handed pitcher, has been plagued with a sore arm the past few years but had an imposing record in 1947, He is 30. Snyder plays either second base or shortstop. Budget Approved SAN FRANCISCO # — An 11 million dollar general budget for jeach of the next four years—larg- est since unification of Methodist Churches in 1939—was adopted Fri- day night by the quadrennial Gen- jeral Conference of the Methodist Church.
