!toF03DJSWTRIBUNl mm Stengel Says Yanks Will Nab Flag Again Br LEO H. PETERSEN United Press Sports Edtior - St . Petersburg, Fla. (U.R) Casey Stengel thinks his new York Yankees are going to do it again. He's fooled the experts three years in a row by winning the American league pennant and the world series and "1952 is going to be the same." "I know the Indians probably will be favored, but don't forget the Red Sox were favored the last three years and we wound up on top. I know we are going to do it again." Figured Tough While most rival managers agree that Cleveland should win, they concede the Yankees are going to be tough to beat. As Manager Jimmy Dykes of the Athletics puts ?t: "Don't ever sell the Yankees short. They always come up with what they need. What they need for the com ing season is a new third base man and a new center fielder and it looks like Stengel will come up with both. He is not worried over what most experts call "my first base problem.' Third Best "I have the third best first baseman in the league in Joe Collins, and I have Johnny Mize and Johnny Hopp back of him, Stengel said. "And that doesn't take into account Don Bollweg and Kal Segrist, either of whom could make . the club. So let mi tell you I'm not worried about first base. Stengel rates Ferris Fain of the Athletics and Eddie Robin son of the White Sox as the "only first baseman in the league better than my man Collins. He is convinced that rookie Andy Carey, who hit .288 at Kansas City last year, is going to solve his third base problem. That became a problem when Gerry Coleman was ordered to return to duty in the Marines and Bobby Brown stood by for a call to the Army Medical corps. - Stengel doesn't expect either one around for the com ing season. Infialders Listed ' As the infield shapes up now, it will be Collins on first, Gil McDougald at second, Phil Riz xuto at short , and Carey , at "third. . For, the centerfield jobr it could be one of four men Mickey Mantle, Jackie Jensen, Gene Woodling, who normally Is the left fielder, or rookie Bob Cerv. ' The chances are that Stengel will open the season with Wood ling in left, Hank Bauer in right and either Mantle or Jen sen in center. He has no catching worries so long as Yogi Berra escapes injury. Charles Silvera and Ralph Houk are back of him. . The big four of his pitching staff will be Vic Raschi, Allie Reynolds, Ed Lopat and Tom Morgan, with Bob Kuzava as either the No. 5 man or the No. 1 reliefer. Bob Hogue, who used to be with the Braves, may be able to take over the No. 1 re lief role. Boy.
