By MILTON HICHMAN
United Ptmi Sports Writer
Fred Haney, still undefeated
s manager of Milwaukee, is
fitting on top of both the world
and the National League but he
climbed down long enough to
proclaim he is "no miracle man."
"I'd like to say I'm a miracle
man," said the smiling, jubilant
Haney Friday night after the
Braves won the seventh straight
game under his managership by
heating the Giants, 3-1, "But
lot's face it, I'm not.
"These guys are doing it," he
said, gesturing toward his play
ers whooping it up in the club
house. "They're playing good
ball and we're getting good
pitching."
Haney got a whale of a pitch
ing Job out of Ray Crone Fri
day night as the 24 -year -old
righthander scattered seven hits
for his seventh victory.
Homers Win Game
The Braves gave him all the
margin he needed to beat Ruben
Gomez when Bill Bruton and
Eddie Mathews smashed back-to-back
homers in the third in
ning. Crone singled home Mil
waukee's final run in the fourth.

a full game ahead of the Cin

seventh victory in defeating the
Cardinals, 2-1, with the aid of

First Base Vork for Cards
Philadelphia (U.R) Stan Mu
sial, admired wherever there is
baseball and revered in St.
Louis left no doubt in anyone's
mind today that he is staying
in baseball Indefinitely.
The Cardinal outfielder - in
fielder, who has won everything
in baseball but the Hall of Fame
and that's merely awaiting the
end of his career, said emphati
cally that he is not discouraged
at St. Louis and has no intention
of retiring.
Musial put what should be
an end to all such guessing when
he said:
"I'm not discouraged and I'm
not quitting.''
He also made it clear that he
was just as happy playing first
base as in the outfield.
"I'll take care of my end of
any job they give me in a base
ball game," he said. "I've played
first base before. I don't mind
Manager Freddy Hutchinson
and General Manager Frank
Lane of the Cardinals backed
him up, revealing that Musial
was agreeable when the switch
to the infield was suggested.

I put him right in," Hutchinson
said.
Lane also shrugged off talk
that Musial was worrying be

from the club with which he
broke into baseball in his teens
and therefore felt insecure.
"I wish I was as insecure,"
