By LEO. H. PETERSEN United Press Sports Editor New York (U.R) The Dodg ers and the Yankees. That's this baseball observer's selections for the coming season, just as they were last spring. Here are the top to bottom picks in both leagues, based on six weeks of covering the spring training camps: , Nat'al League Amer. League 1 Brooklyn 1 New York 2 Milwaukee 2 Boston 3 St. Louis 3 Chicago 4 Cincinnati 4 Cleveland 5 Phila. 5 Detroit 6 New York 6 Kans. City 7 Chicago 7 Washington 8 Pittsburgh 8 Baltimore Although the Dodgers may have pitching problems, with Johnny Podres in the Navy and Billy Loes and Karl Spooner nursing the same arm ailments which plagued them last season, they appear to be the class of the field. They have the best defensive team in the league, the strongest bench, and more than enough hitting. The Braves' hopes were high until Gene Conley, the key man on their pitching staff, came up with his chronic back ailment again. Without a healthy Con ley, Milwaukee doesn't figure to go all the way, for no matter how good a club is, it can't af ford to lose its No. 1 stopper. Under a new manager, Fred die Hutchinson, who has in stilled a new spirit among the players, the Cardinals promise to be the surprise club of the lot. Wilmer (Vinegar Bend) Mi zell is back out of the Army, and he may give the mound corps the shot in the arm it needed so badly in 1955. Redlegs Need Pitching Cincinnati, like St. Louis, also has pitching problems. The Red legs could well be the power house of the league, but their defense does not match their hitting and they could fall below par at third base, left field and catching. Outside of Robin Roberts, who is as good as they come, Phillies also lack pitching. They lack power, too, although they have the league's leading hitter in Richie Ashburn. The Giants, despite the brilliant Willie Mays, don't figure and neither do the Cubs and Pirates. The other seven American League managers agree that Casey Stengel of the Yankees has the "best and most talent." Stengel doesn't know who his leftfielder is going to be or what four players will make up the infield, but the other managers would like to have the same problems. Stengel has the men who can do the job it's just a matter of picking the starters. Cleveland appears to have lost too much power when it gave up Larry Doby to the White Sox for Chico Carrasquel and Jim Busby and it needs plenty of power to back up its pitching, for its infield is shoddy defen sively. Yanks Fear Bosox The Red Sox are the team Stengel fears most. Boston's only problem appears to be the infield, which has been poor de fensively. But Mickey Vernon should help at first and if two rookies, shortstop Don Buddin and third baseman Frank Mal- zone, come through, that infield weakness will be plugged. The White Sox are likely to run into pitching trouble, al though they figure in the pen nant picture because of the pow er they gained when they ac quired Doby. Detroit is building on youth and any club with players like shortstop Harvey Kuenn, Amer ican League batting champion Al Kaline and third baseman Ray Boone a good bet to drive in more than 100 runs can't be counted out of the running. As for the Athletics, Senators and Orioles, they'll be going along just for the ride. Landy Will Race In California San Francisco (U.R) Califor nia track fans are oiling their stop watches in anticipation of clocking Australia's fabled John Landy in a double assault on his own one-mile world record of 3.58. Landy, who never before has raced in the United States, will do so twice next month. What's more, he promised to try to crack four minutes in both races. On May 5 Landy will show in a special mile during the USC UCLA dual meet in Los Angeles' Memorial Coliseum. And May 12 he'll run in the open mile at Fresno's West Coast Relays one of the West's top track shows.

The Trotters moved ahead early in the second quarter and packed a 34-29 advantage at halftime. They stretched the mar gin to 10 points eraly in the third quarter, and the All-Stars could never get closer than eight points. Center Hal Perry of Univer sity of San Francisco made one field goal and three free throws for a total of five points for the All-Stars.

Red Sox Ace Smashes 1st Circuit Rap By FRED DOWN United Press Sports Writer The Boston Red Sox are final ly squared away today for the opening of the American League pennant chase: Ted . Williams has found the home rim range and is stepping up his training campaign. v The 37-year-old, $100,000-a-year outfielder blasted his first homer of the Grapefruit League season Tuesday and Boston en thusiasts considered it no coinci dence that the Red Sox crushed the Philadelphia Phillies, 21-1, at Greenville, S. C. In addition to Williams' three run homer, Jackie Jensen, Faye Thorneberry, Jimmy Piersall and Frank Mazone walloped round-trippers in a 24-hit attack that backed four-hit pitching by Mel Parnell and Frank Bau mann. Catcher Joe Ginsberg hit a two-run homer in the ninth in ning to give the Kansas City Athletics a 4-2 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates. At Knoxville, Tenn., the Washington Senators gained a 4-4 split in their spring series with the Cincinnati Redlegs when they pounded out a 9-8 verdict.
