BROOKLYN, Oct. 7. . Phil (The Scooter) Rizzuto, imallest
Yankee of them all, was holding court In the Yankee dressing room
after their epic 1-0 defeat at the hands of Brooklyn's Preacher Roe.
"The firsttime you face Roe,

you actually feel sorry for him,
he said. "He looks so sad and
skinny.
"The second time you bat
against him, you still feel certain
you can hit him with your eyes
closed, even though he struck
you out the first time. The ball
comes to you as big as a bal
loon. "When you get up there to
hit against him the third time,
you're cursing him all over the
park, and hope you never see
him again. He's a cutey. That's
what he is. He never gives you
that fat, fast one. He's always
throwing that trick stuff at you."
That probably is the best way
to describe the 31-year-old left
hander. Six-feet one, and weigh
ing 153, the pipe-smoking native
of Hardy, Ark., who once taught
high school mathematics, looks
like he'd fall apart if caught In a
cross-wind.
He's Team's Bell-Cow
He's supposed to be unable to
work more than once a week
yet, next to Don Newcombe, he
was the hardest working Dodger
pitcher during the stretch Sep
tember drive. If ever a team had
a bell-cow, the Brooks had one
in him In those hectic four weeks.
It was Roe who won two key
ball games, both from the St.
Louis Cardinals, Just when the
outlook was darkest. Managor
Burt Shotton maintains that
those two triumphs did more than
anv other to bring the flag to
Flatbush.
That "Preacher" nickname
how about that? Is It because of
his solemn appearance?
"No," he said. "My uncle
pinned It on me when I was
three years old. I complained to
him about the name of Elwin
my father had burdened me with,
I hated it. He asked me what I
wanted to be when I grew up.
I told him I wanted to be a
preacher.
'"All right, then,'" he said.
'We'll call you Preacher,' and
Preacher it has been ever since."
Among the 70.053 who watched
Roe pitch his masterpiece were
his wife, father and eight vear-old
son. The boy's name? Why El
win, of course.
