Will Mays Boosts
Giant Enthusiasm
By JOE SARGIS
United Press International
Willie Mays says he's ready
to go again, and apparently
so are the San Francisco
Giants.
Willie, who has been out
of action since March 12 be
cause of a leg cut that requir
ed 35 stitches, was his old
self Sunday during the Giants'
pre-game workout at Phoenix,
Ariz.
Even Manager Bill Rigney
was surprised when Willie
showed up at Municipal stad
ium all suited up and ready
to play. With an "ok" from
his doctor already secured,
Mays warmed up with a few
wind sprints in the outfield.
"There's no pain," he beam
ed to reporters standing -by,
And just to prove that the
layoff hadn't hurt him one bit,
he stepped into the batting
cage and rattled a dozen or
so smashes over the left field
fence.
With his teammates rooting
him on, Mays said "I'll be in
shape before the season
starts.
"Don't forget, we have 16
more pre-season games after
today," the $80,000 a year star
reminded, "if I play in half of
them which is a cinch I'll
be in condition, don't you
worry."
Giants Beat Cubs
The enthusiasm engendered
by Mays' lusty hitting carried
over as the Giants backed up
some solid pitching by lefty
Mike McCormick with timely
hitting for a 10-7 cactus league
victory over the Chicago Cubs.
Felipe Alou, with a pair of
homers and four runs batted
In, spearheaded the attack on
a trio of Chicago pitchers.
Jim Marshall, rookie Ray
Bellio and Ernie Banks pro
pelled homers for the Cubs
while Andre Rodgers hit an-

Meanwhile, a long bus ride
away at Tucson, the Cleveland
Indians learned that big Mike
Garcia, who is attempting a
comeback after a poor 1958
showing, will be lost to them
for at least a week with a
leg injury. Mike, who took
over in the sixth, was hit just
inside the left knee with a
Cards Bust
LA String
Bradenton, Fla. - lUPD -The
Los Angeles Dodgers, their
string of six victories broken,
went against the Milwaukee
Braves today in a Grapefruit
league exhibition game.
Reliefers Clem Labine,
Don Bessant and Johnny
Klippstein were selected by
the Californians to take the
mound against the Braves,
Lew Burdette.
The Dodgers slammed out
seven hits against two St.
Louis Cardinals' rookie pit
chers at St. - Petersburg
Sunday against three hits for
the Cards, but the Dodgers
lost 3-1 anyway.
Two wild pitches by 27-
year-old Gene Snyder, a Spo
kane southpaw farmhand,
and a throwing error by
Norm Larker combined to
help the Cardinals rack up
two tallies in the second
inning - enough to win the
game.
Grounder Rolls By
Snyder gave up the Cards'
other run, in the fourth
frame, when Junior Gilliam
let Joe Cunningham 's
grounder roll by him and
Cunningham scored.
The Dodgers got their only
run in the same inning when
hurler Bob Gibson walked
John Roseboro and Rip Re
pulski singled him home.
Rookie Howard Nunn and
veteran Marv Grissom also
pitched for the Cards.
Snyder gave up the mound
after the fifth and Fred Kipp
and Phil Paine took over the
Dodger hurling chores to
hold the Cards to only one
hit in the last four frames.
LASSIE WINS AGAIN
Hollywood -(UPD-A cat and
a dog shared honors as the
top animal movie and televi

dog of the television series
carrying his name, was hon
ored for the second straight
year as the best animal per
former on TV by the Ameri

its annual "Patsy" awards
program Saturday. Pyewack

Garcia crumpled to the
ground and was carried off
on a stretcher. X-rays at St.
Mary's hospital showed only
a deep bruise-no break. Er
ratic play by the Red Sox
helped the Indians to three
unearned runs and the Tribe
went on to score a 7-5 victory.
Williams Has Cold
Ted Williams was schedul
ed to make his Arizona debut
in this game but was confined
to his hotel room with a cold
in his right shoulder. He re
portedly was having some dif
ficulty breathing.
The injury jinx also hit the
Washington Senators, who
dropped an 11-2 decision to
the Kansas City Athletics at
West Palm Beach, Fla. The
game was called after eight
innings because of rain.
Just before the game, the
Senators learned that catcher
Clint Courtney will be side
lined from four to six weeks
with a brok4n bone in his
right leg. Courtney was injur
ed Saturday in a collision
with Kansas City catcher Hal
Smith at home plate. At the
time it was believed that
Courtney had suffered only a
bruise but x-rays later show
ed that a small bone below
the knee was broken.
Smith was the A's big stick
man with a pair of homers and
four RBI's. Rookie first base
man Kent Handley and out
fielder Roger Maris also hom
ered for the winners.
Yankees Lose Two
The Baltimore Orioles en
joyed a rare day-for them
when they handed the New
York Yankees a double de-feat-6-3
and 4-0. Milt Pappas,
a 19-year-old Baltimore phee
nom, pitched six of the seven
scoreless innings of the night
cap after Jerry Walker and
Jack Fisher, a pair of 20-year
olds, had throttled the world
champions on nine scattered
hits in the opener.
Elsewhere, a six-run rally
in the seventh Inning, featur
ed by Dick Schofield's three-
run homer, carried the Pitts
burgh Pirates to a 9-1 victory
over the Philadelphia Phillies.
The Chicago White Sox scorr
ed early and late to turn back
the Cincinnati Reds and prize
rookie Jimmy O'Toole, 9-6.
The Detroit Tigers jumped
off to a 9-0 lead in four in
nings and went on to defeat
the Milwaukee Braves, 10-4
. . . and rookie pitcher Bob
Gibson and 19-year old rookie
shortstop Julio Gotay led the
St. Louis Cardinals to a 3-1
victory over the Los Angeles
Dodgers.

Walt Alston Won't
Predict on
(This is the fifth dispatch
on the prospects of the ma
jor league clubs for 1959).
By LEO PETERSEN
UPI Sports Editor
Vero Beach, Fla. (UPD- Last
year at this time, Walter Al
ston was talking pennant for
the Los Angeles Dodgers, con
fidently predicting they would
beat the Milwaukee Braves.
They beat the Braves, all
right, but hardly anybody else
and finished seventh.
"Everything went wrong,"
said Alston. "So this spring
I'm not predicting anything."
Told that a lot of other man
agers in the league class the
Dodgers as contenders, he just
shrugged his shoulders and
said he hoped they're right.
"But don't say I said we
are going to be contenders,"
he delcared emphatically.
He did maKe it plain that
he didn't blame the trick ball
park in Los Angeles for the
Dodgers' debacle last season.
"We just played lousy ball,
at home and away," he point
ed out. "The only thing we
could do right was when we
were playing Milwaukee."
The Dodgers beat the pennant-
winners 14 times while los
ing only eight.
He conceded there were
hopeful signs for 1959, how
ever. Young Pitching Staff
Among them are his young
pitching staff, an added year's
experience for catcher John
Roseboro, the fact that Gil
Hodgers doesn't figure to have
two bad years in a row, and
the possibility Duke Snider's
bat will start blasting again.
The Duke, bothered by a
bad knee, hit .312 last season,
but it wasn't a typical Snider
year. Instead of the usual 40-
or-so homers he hits every
years, driving in 100 or more
runs, he had only 15 homers
with 58 RBI's.
Snider will be in centerfield
with the veteran Carl Furillo,
who is 33, in right. Left field
is up for grabs. Alston may
platoon Wally Moon, the
southpaw swinger obtained
from the Cardinals, and Rip
Repulski, the ex-Phillie who
bats from the right side. There
also is a chance that Jim
Gentile, although he hit only
.249 at Spokane, or Norm Lar
ker, who batted .277 in 99
games for the Dodgers, can
take over first base, freeing
Hodges for left field.
Hodges really dropped off
last season, hitting only .259
with 22 home runs with 64
runs batted in. Gil will be 35
in April, but other managers
concede that he's as good as
they come at first base.
Second Base Filled
Jim Gilliam, ticketed for
third, also can play left-if
Bob Lillis, who hit .391 in 20
games for Los Angeles late
last season after they brought
him up from St. Paul, can
win the shortstop berth. That
would leave Don Zimmer, last
year's regular shortstop, or
Dick Gray, who hits a long
ball, but not very often, to
take over third.
Thus the only infield posi
tion that is set is Charley Neal
at second base. There isn't a
club in the league which
wouldn't like to have him al
though he slumped along with
the rest of the Dodgers last
season and fell to a .254 av
erage. Roseboro, whom most base
ball men feel has a chance
to become one of the league's
Legislature Fund

than $2,000 by the president
of the Senate and speaker of
the House to cover incidental
expenses incurred during and

introduced by the Joint Ways
and Means committee today.
It was the first time any
attempt has been made to pro

Dodgers
top hitters, will be the No. 1
catcher with Joe Pipnatano,
an accomplished receiver but
weak hitter, in reserve.
Pitching could be the Dodg
ers' forte. They have the pos
sibilities. They is Don Drysdale, the
fast-balling right hander who
lost his first seven games last
year and still wound up with
a 12-13 mark; Johnny Podres,
the left-handed change of pace
artist with a 13-15 record;
southpaw Sandy Koufax, who
was 7-3 in 1958 before he
hurt his ankle and wound up
11-11; Stan Williams, a young
right-hander who won nine
while losing seven, and Bob
Giallombardo, a 12-game win
ner at Montreal. Koufax and
Williams can throw the ball
as fast as almost anyone
Better Finish Predicted
Possible starters also in
clude the veteran Carl Ers
kine (4-4); Fred Kipp (6-6) and
lanky Roger Craig, back for
another shot although he won
only five while losing 17 at
St. Paul.
Clem Labine (6-6), Don
Bessent (1-0) and Danny Mc
Devitt (2-6) with the Dodgers
and 9-4 with St. Paul figure
to form the bullpen brigade.
Put them all together, and
if hurlers like Drysdale can
forget that short left field
fence, the Dodgers could come
up with the best pitching in
the league. They don't look
like a seventh place club and
aren't likely to finish that low
again in 1959
