Dodgers, Yanks Pick
Of UP Forecaster in
Major League Chase
MEET POSTPONED
The track meet between
Washington and Jackson grade
schools, scheduled for yesterday,
was postponed because of rainy
weather.
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.

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.
In the only other game played,
the New York Yankees got eight
hit pitching from Whitey Ford
and Bob Grim to beat Dallas
of the Texas League, 6-3.

Hockey Loop
Title Taken
By Montreal
Montreal (U.R) Montreal is
the new monarch of hockey, and
jubilant Canadian officials and

rein.

a month after they interrupted
the Red Wings National Hockey
League string of seven straight
championships.,
Beliveau Leads
Leading the Canadiens to vic
tory aftej: victory all through the
season and then rising to great
heights in playoffs, Jean Beli
veau clearly stamped himself as
one of the great players of mod
ern times. The big, stylish cen
ter scored Montreal's first goal
Tuesday night to wind up a bril
liant third season with 59 goals
47 in the regular season and
12-in 10 playoff games.
Maurice Richard added the
second and winning goal while
Marcel Pronovost of Detroit was
sitting out a tripping penalty
late in the second period.
Bernie (Boom-Boom) Goef
frion blinked the light with
Montreal's third and insurance
tally, banging in Beliveau's rebound.

San Bruno, Calif. (U.R)
Trainer Noble Threewit saddled
his eighth straight winner at
Tanforan Tuesday for what is
