The Comet jayvees go to Glendale for a ' game this evening. They play at 8 p.m. Sport Parade By OSCAR FRALEV United Press International New York-flJPD-Thls was in S1948 at the Braves field in 'Boston and' "the ' wiry hawk faced young man tapped his cleats nervously with a bat. ..'"I've really got butterflfes in my belly," said Alvin Dark, . who has just completed a suc cessful rookie season and now faced his first World Series game against the Indians. "I'm "almost as, nervous as I was on the first day of the season." V' Yesterday another season got going full blast and once -again Dark was a rookie - this time on the manager's bench and the "butterflies" must have beat their wings' as of old against the lining of his stomach. : 1 'It's a new beginning for a Tot of them, erstwhile bushers still awed by the magnitude of their hew surroundings, to .whom the pressure seems al ' most insufferable. But the ten sion was there, too, for the old pros like Dark and Ralph Houk of the Yankees as they began to call the payoff shots as new members of the splint er brigade. .- Another junior member of the managerial order, Mickey Vernon, made his string-pulling bow Monday in the tradi tional Washington opener. It was an unsuccessful one, but there previously had been se rious doubts as to whether the new Senators could win the American league pennant. : Houk, as the Yankees face the Minnesota Twins, is on a king-sized spot. Succeeding Casey Stengel, he must con tinue the old perfesser's mir acles. That it is expected can be seen from the pre-season polls which placed the burden of anticipation on the Yanks. Vernon, and Dark to a lesser degree, can assume the re ceipt of greater leniency. It probably will not help Houk that only 10 men in baseball history have manag ed to win pennants in their freshmen seasons as mana gers. The first was Hugh Jen nings at Detroit in 1907, fol lowed by Pat Moran of the Phillies in 1915, Kid Gleason with the White Sox in 1919 and Bucky Harris as the boy wonder of the Senators in 1924. Five times during the "30s first year pilot phenoms were "able to, as Joe Gans' mother ' once wired him, "Bring home the bacon." Gabby Street did it with the Cardinals in 1930, Jolly Cholly Grimm with the Cubs in 1932, Joe Cronin with Washington in 1933, Mickey Cochrane at Detroit in 1934 and Gabby Hartnett with the Cubs in 1938. Grimm and Hartnett did it after taking over from their predecessors in mld-seasoa. Dyer Did It The last man to win a pen nant as a freshman pilot' was Eddie Dyer, who led the Car dinals to the National league flag in 1946. That's been 15 years and, as far as Houk is concerned, it is a skein which circumstances bid him to end forthwith. On the playing field, there were a number of newcomers who must have entertained the winged creatures which in vaded Dark's innards in the long ago. The heat is, particu larly, on such as Carl Yastr zemski of the Red' Sox and Willie Davis of the Dodgers. They're among the front run ners for rookie of the year honors and, as such, must pro duce. Yastrzemski's chores are complicated as he strives to fill the big brogans of a fel low named Ted Williams. Other - well -liked rookies who were expected to find the pressure somewhat para lyzing include Chuck Schilling of the Red Sox, Roland Shel don . of the Yankees, Zorro Versalles of the Twins, Joe Martin of the White Sox, Chuck Hiller. of the Giants and Ken Hunt of the Reds. just to name a few But in most of their cases there is, if things go wrong, a possibility of next year or even the year after that. " Managers, ori the other hand, don't ordinarily get too many chances. 1 Bearers Nudqe San Juan Club : Homestead, Fla.-Duke Car- mel's eighth inning home run gave the Portland Beavers a 4-3 spring training exhibition baseball victory over the San Juan Marlins here Tuesday.
