By OSCAR FRALEY United Press Sports Writer NEW YORK (UP) Mickey Mantle is in the New York Yankee doghouse today for failing to per form up to the capabilities which labeled him as a future super-star when he broke into the big leagues. Mantle was hailed as the "new joe DiMaggio" when he broke in with the Yankees in 1951. Since then he has been adequate but iar from sensational, except for an occasional mammoth wallop The Ydnkee masterminds still feel that he has everything ex cept the inclination: Thus there is a possibility, ac cording to a source close to the Yankees, that next spring Mantle will be given an early tour of bench duty.

Sulkiness Irritates Yankees The Yankees are increasingly ir ritated with the 23-year old out fielder on the grounds that he i failing to use his great talents ti their fullest extent. Part of the ir ritation centers around his sulki ness at times; Nor is it any secret that Case; Stengel almost goes through thi concrete roof of the dugout ever; time Mantle watches a third striki go by an effortless feat in whicl Mickey led the American Leagui last season. Mantle last season reached thi runs-batted-in century mark for thi first tine in four big league out ings with 102 markers driver across the plate. His production ii other departments while abovi average was not breath-taking ai he batted a flat .300 and hit Z home runs. : ( Inter-league rivalry in New York among the Yankees, Dodgers and Giants is very keen and it rankle! the Yankees that Mantle for all his talents should finish behind Wil lie Mays in every department. Mays Outpluys Rival An example, Mantle last seasoj also had 17 doubles and 12 triples while, despite his great speed, h stole only five bases. Mays,' or. the other hand, won the National League Most Valuble player award with 33 doubles, 13 triples 41 home runs and a league-leading .345 batting average. Defensively, too, Mays held the upper hand, although the Yankees insist that Mickey is even faster than the amazing Willie. Mays made 418 putouts and had only seven errors for a .985 mark. Man tle had only 327 putouts and, de spite his far fewer risky chances on the whole, committed nine er rors for a .975 fielding average Yet the Yankees always have gloried in the big stick man, from the days of Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig on down. They had tre mendously higli hopes for Mantle but his averages of.267, .311, .295 and .300 leave them cold. They figure he can do much bet ter all around and their major worry is how to give him the in- .. cunaiion. g BUY HIM OR HER A RIFLE, or SHOTGUN : FOR CHRISTMAS!
