New York W Milwaukee
manager Fred Haney adopted
Casey Stengel's favorite weapon
the platoon system today, re
vealing he will alternate his
right fielders and possibly his
first basemen against the New
York Yankees in the World Se
ries. Thus, with southpaw Whitey
Ford slated to start for the
Yankees in the Series opener at
Yankee Stadium Wednesday
against left - hander Warren
Spahn, Haney said right-handed
hitting Andy Pafko will be in
right field and Joe Adcock, an
other right-handed hitter, at
first base.
"When the Yankees pitch a
right hander," Haney added,
"I'll have Bob Hazle in right
field and maybe Frank Torre at
first base."
New York HP Good fall
, weather is the advance fore
cast for Wednesday's opening
game of the World Series. The
U.S. Weather Bureau predict
ed "Mostly fair with season
able temperatures."
Hazle and Torre are left
handed hitters.
Casey Still Undecided
While Haney appeared cer
tain as to who would start for
his Braves at every position
Wednesday, Stengel still had not
made up his mind about three
spots first base, second base
and left field.
Husky Bill Skowron, the slug
ging first baseman who has been
sidelined two weeks with a sac
roilliac condition, was the key
man in Stengel's indecision.
"I still don't know, whether
he'll be able to play." Casey
said, "And if he can't, I'm in
real trouble.
"If Skowron can play, it will
help me make up my mind who
I will start in left field and at
second base."
Skowron and Mickey Mantle
who has been sidelined by shin
splints in his left leg, both indi
cated they were ready to play in
Wednesday's opener although
each explained he wasn't 100
per cent sound.
Howard May Start
Skowron seemed the more
doubtful starter of the two and
in the event his back prevents
him from playing, Stengel prob
ably will use the right-handed
hitting Elston Howard at first
base. That would mean either
rookie Tony Kubek or Enos
Slaughter would be in left, and
either Gerry Coleman or Bobby
Richardson at second.
Stengel had no doubt at all
as to the other positions. He said
Yogi Berra would catch Wednes
day, Hank Bauer would be in
right field, Gil McDougald at
shortstop and Andy Carey at
third base.
Considering his Braves are
the underdogs in the Series,
Haney was in an expansive con
fident mood as he arrived here
by plane from Milwaukee with
his team late Monday.
"I know we have a battle on
our hands," he said, "But I don't
see any reason why we can't win
it."

Baseball Head
Becomes Target
Of Washington
Washington (IP) Baseball
Commissioner Ford Frick was
revealed today as the target of
broad new accusations filed with
a congressional committee by a
director of the Washington base
ball club.
The accuser, C. Leo DeOrsey,
charged Frick with permitting
"continued abuses" of baseball's
waiver and draft rules and shak
ing "the fan's"' confidence in the
integrity of the game" by pub
licly making "unfair, unfortun
ate, and completely unwarranted
reflections upon the great Ameri
can game and the men who have
made it so."
The newest chapter in the
Frick-DeOrsey feud was unfold
ed in a supplementary statement
filed by DeOrsey with the House
Judiciary Subcommittee after he
and Frick testified at public
hearings this summer on sports
anti-trust legislation. The state
ment, part of the subcommit
tee's hearing record, came to
light today.
The feud originated last March
when DeOrsey labeled baseball a
big business and proposed a ma
jor overhaul in the set-up of the
game, including big league rep
resentation for Los Angeles and
San Francisco. At the time,
Frick chided DeOrsey as a 'com
parative newcomer who profess
es to know all the cures for base
ball's ills."

Avalanches Not
Serious Threat
To Shasta Lift
Mount Shasta, Calif. Ava
lanches will not be a serious
threat to the Mt. Shanta ski lift,
according to the U.S. Forest
Service's top expert oi the sub
ject. He is Monte Atwater, now a
technical supervisor for the 1960
Olympic Games at Squaw Val
ley. Atwater inspected the lift
this week at the request of ski
bowl directors.
He said any threat to the lift's
structure could be corrected by
removing potential dangers in
their early, stages. Atwater of
fered to help with this using re
coilless rifles and other devices
which have been found useful
for this purpose. He has studied
avalanches in all parts of the
world.
Meantime, work is being
speeded on the lower lift, as well
as on the 14 miles of highway to
Panther meadows where the lift
starts, and on the 300 car park
ing lot being built there.
Bids also are to be opened
soon on a S160,000 lodge at Pan
ther meadows. Foundations for
the building are scheduled to go
in this fall.

Major Aim Of Ranch
Planned By Kramer
BY HAL WOOD
United Press Sports Writer
San Francisco (IP Tennis
professionals Jack Kramer and
John Gardiner are going into
partnership with football coach
Frankie Albert to invest a quar
ter of a million dollars in a new
fangled "tennis ranch" to open
next spring in Carmel Valley,
125 miles south of San Fran
cisco. The angle: To produce more
and better tennis players for the
U.S. in international competi
tion in the years to come.
"We are planning this lay-out
to give youngsters with an incli
nation of play tennis an inten
sive five weeks of instruction
during the summer months,"
said Gardiner, currently head
pro at the Pebble Beach Tennis
Club. s
"Also, it will give Kramer a

Favored To

contender Del Flanagan is favor
ed at 7-5 to beat Yama Bahama
at the Chicago Stadium Wednes
day night in what appears the
most attractive fight on this
week's schedule.
It will be televised by ABC.
Flanagan of St. Paul, Minn.,
ninth ranking contender, is fa
vored over West Indian Yama
because of his greater experi
ence in 101 fights and because of
his cagey style. Unranked Yama
has had 53 bouts.
Friday night's TV-radio NBC
bout brings together lightweight
contender Johnny Busso of New
York and Ernie (Sonny Boy)
Williams of Washington, D. C,
at the New Capitol arena in
Washington. Unranked Williams
was unbeaten in his last six
fights, but his opponents lacked
Busso's class. Johnny is favored
at 3-1.

though he'll not only have to be
a promoter, but a teacher."
The ranch will have a dormi
tory where the young prospects
will be housed during the in
struction period and instructors
will include some of the nation's
top professionals from the Kra
mer tour, including Kramer him
self. "We expect to spend about
$225,000 on this investment,"
says Gardiner, "and we hope to
be open for business in March."
In addition to the dormitory
for the young players, the lay
out will have five courts for day
time tennis only.
Also, there will be 16 guest
cottages for older persons inter
ested in playing tennis, plus two
swimming pools.
Gardiner hopes the idea will
spread around the country, be
cause he belieevs it would give
the game of tennis a great shot
in the arm.
"I believe this is the first
'tennis ranch' ever developed,"
he said. "We think there is a
great need for this kind of in
struction and development of the
younger players if we aregoing
to be able to meet the Austral
ian players and others on an
equal basis.
"We will have an instructor
for every four young players
present, so it would mean a lot
of personal attention for each
lad in our care."
There are many exclusive
beach and tennis clubs in the
country, such as those in New
York, Florida and California,
but they mostly are very expen
sive organizations and too cost
ly for the average young player
to join.
"This should open the gates
for many young prospects who
in the past couldn't afford to be
long to an exclusive club, or just
partial instruction on public
courts," said Gardiner.
