6 Sport Parade New York - IIOT - Tliey'll burn Burt Shotton in Flor ida today and it would be nice to say that the baseball world u"ill miss him. It won't. Burt, a man with a scorch ing tongue and a crusty ex terior, summed it up himself five years after he stepped out of baseball as the fired manager of the then Brooklyn Dodgers. "I'd like to see some of the players," he said while get ting ready to go fishing in the isolated Florida town where he spent the years until his death Sunday at 77. "But only one fellow, a scout, has been by to see me." It was the result to be ex pected of his withdrawn atti tude and disregard of others in the short span wherein he won two National league pen nants with the Dodgers. As Ty Cobb could have told him in his late and lonely years, it requires more than a record and a roughshod approach to others to found friendships which last through the twi light years. Unpopular With Players The truth is that, like Cobb, Shotton was unpopular with his players and usually at odds with the press during the days when he was riding high. He was quick to assume credit and slow to accept fault. Even in a crowd, he preferred to be a man alone. "I'm hired to win pennants, not popularity contests," he retorted on one occasion. But you can do that with a sense of humor, or without antagonizing those under you who somehow fail to get the job done. Shotton's two most memorable remarks vere: "I've never seen anything funny on a ball field." And, after he finished sec ond in 1050: "If you've got the players, you can win. If you haven't get them, you lose." Shotton was in baseball a long time and yet, because of his self-imposed isolation, he was almost an unknown stranger when Branch Rickey made him the Dodger pilot In 1947 to replace Leo Durocher, who had drawn a year's sus pension which never has been explained. Shotton started with Erie in 1908, was an infielder for the defunct St. Louis Browns from J nil through 191 i and then, after a stop at Washington, ended it up with the St. Louis Cardinals from 1919 through 3 922.

AUGUST 1. 1962 By OSCAR FRALEY United Press International He managed at Syracuse, Rochester and Columbus, was a coach and "advisor" to Lou Boudreau at Cleveland and from 1928 through 1933 man aged the Phillies. When Rickey pulled him out of the scouting ranks in 1947 to replace Durocher, there was an attempt to sell Shotton to the public as "kindly old Burt." The truth is that he was irascible, short tempered, dictatorial and, above all, perpetually aloof. Durocher returned in 1948 but, when he went to the Giants in mid-season, Shotton again was Branch Rickey's managerial nominee. He had won the pennant in 1947, fin ished up 1948 in third place, won again in 1949 and fin ished second in 1950. If you accept his own words, he had the players. Those who were around at the time know that he didn't do it on personality or bril liant baseball strategy. And he left the scene just as he had figured in it, bitterly, holding it unfair that he hadn't been retained when Walter O'Malley took over, It's a shame it couldn't have been different for him. No man should finish so alone. Team Wins But Game Forfeited Mail Tribune last night won its first Jackson County Soft ball association game since May 28. Then, the game was forfeited. The Newspaper club nicked Communications Workers of America 9 to 8 in a Minor league game. Forfeit was de clared because Mail Tribune used a player not under con tract. In the evening's other game Central Point fortified second spot in the Major loop stand ings by beating Keith Schulz Garage 8 to 5. Schulz outhil Central Point nine to four but was charged with five miscues to two by the victors. Harvey Tonn for Central Point and Steve Isaacs and Clyde Smith for KS each had two hits and Don Sanford doubled for the losers. Central Point pitcher Vern Neiswanger allowed nine hits and six bases on balls while whiffing three. Schulz chuck- er Don Cain walked six and fanned four in his four hitter. He hit one batter.

Well, the Yankees have a new one today and if they stick to it, they're a cinch to win the American league pen nant by their biggest margin in 15 years. Here's how it works: The Yankees already have ballooned their lead to six games. That means they still have two full months in which to better their famous finish of 1047, when they killed off all the contenders early and won by 12 games. Actually, the Yanks are far ahead of schedule. A year ago this time they were only l1,: games ahead and came home eight lengths in front. So you can draw your own conclu sions about their chances of topping that 15-year-old 12 tJaine spread. Even with Mickey Mantle on the sidelines Tuesday night, they still increased Medford'wtribunb Mizell Gets Bad News; Mets Seek To Give Him Unconditional Release United Press International Three major league pitchers - Frank Lnry.

Indians Beat Angels The Cleveland Indians knocked off the second-place Los Angeles Angels, 5-3, and the Baltimore Orioles beat the Minnesota Twins, 8-7, in the only other major league games scheduled. Mantle's left knee was still sore from a Sunday injury so he sat in the dugout and watched Moose Skowron and Elston Howard do most of the slugging. Skowron teed off on newly-wed Claude Osteen for a grand-slam homer in the first inning and Howard belt ed a two-run homer in the third off the Senator south paw, who married a beauty queen last Sunday. Bill Stafford scored his ninth victory in 15 decisions although Jim Coates had to be called upon to halt a four-run Washington rally in the eighth. While he was still around, Stafford collected a by a sore arm most of the season, was placed on the dis abled list by the Det?oit Tigers and may be through for the year.

Suspended and fined by Keane two months ago be cause of a poor performance, the 21-ycar-old Sadecki said, "I just can't figure this thing. Keane just said I don't fit into his plans. It's all kind of funny." Sadecki, who received an estimated $50.00 bonus when he signed with the Cardinals, has a 6-8 record with, them this season but lost four ot his last five deisions. In' Sadecki's place, tl.. Cards j brought up pitcher Paul Toth, ; who won six and lost seven ! for Atlanta. Mizell was obtained by the Mots from the Pittsburgh Pirates on May 6 and had an 0-1 record,, with Casev Sten- scl's club.

Catcher El ston Howard takes throw from third base man Cletis Boyer on relay from outfielder Hector Lopez, too late to make the out. The Yanks won 9-5. (UPI) pair of doubles and drove In two runs. Gary Bell's effective relief pitching along with homers by Willie Kirkland and John Romano paced the Indians to their victory over the falling Angels. Kirkland and Romano each connected in the sixth inning to give Cleveland a 3-1 lead and the Tribe pushed across what proved to tie the win ning run in the seventh with the aid of an error by losing pitcher Dan Osinski. Bell took over for starter Jim Perry in the top of the seventh and was nicked for a two-run double by Bob Rodgers that tied the score at 3-all. Bell, however, didn't give up another hit the rest of the way to earn his eighth victory, seven of which have come in relief. Rally Fell Short The Orioles barely manag ed to get by the Twins despite a six-run rally in the fourth inning, when Baltimore sent 11 men to bat and overcame a 2-0 deficit. Jerry Adair's single with the bases full drove in the first two runs during the Orioles' big upris ing and another run crossed the plate on a throwing error by losing pitcher Jackie Col lum. Singles by Whitey Her zog, Jackie Brandt and Brooks Robinson produced three more runs. Two unearned Puns off re liever Lee Stange in the sixth stretched the Orioles' lead to 8-2 and as things turned out, they needed that margin after Harmon Killebrew led off the seventh with his 2(ilh homer and Earl Battey connected for his eighth during a four-run rally in the eighth. Jack Fisher had a oOe-hitter until the seventh. He was credited wip.i his third win cue after Battcy's three-rui homer made the score 8-7.

Grim determination, lofty ambitions and World Series aims aside-there was enough of harlequinade on the dia monds to outrival Joe Miller. There was that beautiful gold and black rooster some one tossed into Candlestick Park when the Dodgers were playing the Giants July 8th. Giant catcher Joe Pagna- tano retrieved the rooster which, incidentally was Dlumed in Giant colors. Must we say it was caught in "fowl" territory? If you're superstitious, you might say it was a bad omen for Pignatano. A few days later he was sent to the Mets. Moments of Inspiration But there were also mo. ments of inspiration. A few hours after Pirate righthander Vernon Law learned he was the father of a fifth son, he shutout the Colts in Houston for his fourth consecutive vic tory. Philadelphia's Bobby Wine had been a father only 2i hours when he hit a 10th in- nino- single that gave the low. ly Phils a 6-5 victory over the powerful Giants. Cincinnati southpaw Jim rYTonle had greeted a new daughter only 10 days before he shutout the Pirates 3-0 on a one-hitter. The St. Louis Cardinals stopped the game at Forbes Field to protest the presence of Pirate reliever Elroy Face in the scoreborad. They sus pected he was stealing their signals. Face sheepishly defended his trip. He explained he was in the rest room at the time. The Philadelphia writer who uttered this quip in the press box at Houston shall re main anonymous. A Houston writer inquired if the given name of Phillies righthander Dallas Green was correct. "Naw, that's his nickname," replied t h e Philadelphian. "His right name is Fort Worth."
