Fans CDptnmistSc
Over Giant Team
San Francisco (UPD Three
games don't make a season
but from the optimism in San
Francisco, it appears the fans
believe that the Giants have
to win only a couple of more
to capture the 1959 National
league pennant.
True, San Francisco slaugh
tered the St. Louis Cardinals
in the opening series of the
ason. But the Cards definite
ly aren't the strongest club in
the league.
As a matter of fact, the
Giants play second division
clubs through the first 17
games. Of these they should
win at least three out of four
to build up for what may
come after. They, play St.
Louis, Chicago, Los Angeles,
and then Philadelphia before
they run into heap big trouble
Three Games at Milwaukee
Two games are slated with
favored Pittsburgh, then three
against the Braves at Milwau
kee. After that there will be
a better line on what Mays,
Cepeda and Co., will do this
year.
"Sure, we won against St.
Louis," says Manager Bill
Rigney "But we didn't play
well enough to win against the
pennant contenders."
Nine errors in three days is
'way above par. Of course,
ome of these were blamed on
the cold weather.
One thing the Giants al
ready have done they have
made a believer out of Man
ager Solly Hemus of the
Cards.
"This club has a lot of
punch and the pitching is
harp," said Hemus after his
team was routed. "And their
defense is good even if they
did make a lot of errors
against us. They could win the
pennant.
Some seasoned baseball ob
servers believe that the coach
ing, so far, leaves something
to be desired. The Giants lost
a run the other day when he
over-cautious coach Salty Par
ker held Daryl Spencer at
third base- And they sort of
loused things up in another
day when Willie Mays was on
first and Mike McCormick on
third. Mays decided to steal
second and McCormick was
caught as he tried to come
home.
Rigney Takes Blame
"It's my fault," says Rigney.
"I called the play. I had a
hunch they would throw the
ball away-but they didn't." .
Rigney is convinced that
Andre Rodgers, the ex
cricket player from the Baha
mas, will make the grade as a
major league shortstop.
The lad has been having a
tough go of it fielding, but he
has a powerful arm.
"His trouble is that he
doesn't charge the balls," says
Rigney. "He lets the ball play
him."
But even with the Giants'
weaknesses, San Francisco
fans are attempting to con
vince the players they can win
the chamiponship.
And that's what they call
positive thinking.

Arcaro Picks
Mount For
Memorial
New York - (UPD - Eddie
Arcaro plans to string along
with First Landing in Satur
day's Wood Memorial and
presumably in the Kentucky
Derby.
The nation's greatest stakes
rider picked First Landing
as his mount in the Wood af
ter booting Chris Chenery's
colt to an impressive three
length victory Monday at Ja
maica. Arcaro could have chosen
Elkcam Stable's Atoll, whom
he piloted to ah equally im
pressive triumph in last Sat
urday's Gotham Stakes at the
Long Island course.
But after First Landing
hung out the fastest six-furlong
clocking of the meeting
1:10 1-5 in Monday's feature,
Eddie announced, V'T11 ride
him in the Wood." '
What impressed Arcaro
most was the way First Land
ing drew away from five riv
als in the stretch and then
pulled up without drawing a
deep breath. x
"He wouldn't blow out a
match when I brought him
back," Eddie declared glee
fully. "He's a real fit horse.
I hit him twice in the stretch
to keep him going and so
he would get the full benefit
of the race."
It was First Landing's best
effort of the year. The son of
Turn To won 10 of 11 starts
last year and was voted .the
nation's outstanding juvenile.
However, he lost considerable
prestige while winning only
one of three outings in Flori
da last winter.
The Wood now shapes up
as a three-horse race among
First Landing, Atoll and Intentionally.
ARRIVES AT DOWNS
Louisville, Ky. -(UPD- Silver
Spoon, C. V., Whitney's filly
who is winter book co-favorite
for the Kentucky Derby,
was resting at Churchill
Downs today following a n
"uneventful" trip by . plane
from California.
with the Cubs with a 1-1 rec
ord while the Cardinals
dropped three straight in their
home opener series with the
Giants.
The Dodgers from President
Walter O'Malley down vowed
the club would do better this
j season than in their first year
as the Los Angeles club when
they finished seventh.
Although few would pick
the Dodgers to finish first in
the National League, most ex
perts agreed the club should
be in the first division by the
time the season comes to a
close next September.
A capacity throng of 1,500
jammed the International
Ballroom of the Beverly Hil
ton hotel Monday night to
pay tribue to the Dodgers and
Roy Campanella and Stan
Musial at the second annual
Dodger dinner sponsored by
the Los Angeles chapter of the
Baseball Writers.
The popular Campanella
was given a standing ovation
that brought tears to the now
paralyzed former catcher.
"It is quite an honor to be
here," he said. "Last year I
never had an idea that I could
make it."
He was crippled in a near
fatal auto accident 15 months
ago.
Mayor Norris Poulson,
among the dignitaries attend
ing the affair, predicted the
Dodgers would land in the
first division as well as land
ing on top "in the Chavez Ra
vine league."
Sugar Ray
Seeks Aid
New York -(UPD- Sugar Ray
Robinson turned to the courts
today for help in keeping his
world middleweight championship-Attorneys
for Robinson
caused a writ to be served
Monday on Gen. Melvin Kru
lewitch, chairman of the New
York State Athletic Commis
sion, who on April 3 ordered
Robinson to sign by noon on
April 15 to defend his crown,
former champion Carmen Ba
silio or be stripped of the
title.
The writ directs Krulewitch
to appear in state Supreme
Court at 10 a.m. Wednesday
two hours before the deadline
on Robinson expires-to show
cause why he should not be
restrained from vacating Rob
inson's championship.
Robinson has been dicker
ing with various promoters
for a rematch with Basilio,
but so far has reached agree
ment with none of them.
Sugar Ray never has de
fended the crown he won back
from Basilio on March 25,
1958, even though commission
rules call for a title defense
at least every six months.
