PETERSEN UPI Sports Editor St. Petersburg, Fla. - (DPD -Casey Stengel has only one elm this year and that is to keep the New York Mets from becoming "a fraud." "And that's just what we'll be if we don't do better than last year," claims Stengel, who will be 73 in July. Old Case, after a long and bril liant stint as manager of the Yankees, took over the newly formed Mets at their incep tion last year and found the going "awfully rough." They won only 40 games while losing 120, finishing 6OV2 games behind the pen nant winning Giants. "I can't see how things can be tougher," Stengel sighed. "On the other hand, I'm not kidding myself. We're a long way from becoming a repre sentative major league team." He isn't giving up hope, however. Dozen Major Leaguers "Last year at this time we did not know how many, if any, major league players we had on our roster," he pointed out. "At least we're ahead of the game in that respect this year for we know we nave a dozen players who belong." He didn't name them all but as he rambled on for a few thousand words he said that other clubs were bidding for pitchers Al Jackson, Jay Hook and Roger Craig, outfielders Frank Thomas and Jim Hick man and infielder Charlie Neal. "The clubs that let those players go in the player draft to stock our new club now want 'em back." Stengel ex plained. "So it turns out they made mistakes when they let them go. But they didn't make enough so far as we are con cerned for most of the others we got didn't turn out so good " Stengel still is hopeful of making some deals He and President George Weiss are on the phone almost every day talking with other clubs.

Yanks Pay $172,000 To 2 Ms By FRED DOWN UPI Sports Writer It'll cost the New York Yankees approximately $1,000 per game for the privilege of having Mickey Mantle and Roger Maris swing their big bats this year. The famed MiM combina tlon attended to the formality of signing their 1863 con tracts Wednesday - for a rec ord two-man package of $172,- 000. Maritle became the fifth player in baseball history to reach the $100,000 level when the Yankees gave him a $15 000 raise and Maris received the same $72,000 salary which he was paid in 1962 Willie Mays of the San Francisco Giants is the only other active player in the $!00,000-class. Others who mai it were Joe DiMaggio, Ted Williams and Stan Mu- sial. "I hope I get at least five more good seasons," said the 31-year-old Mantle, who hit .321 and won his third Ameri can league most valuable play er award last season. "I would like to play as long as Stan Musial but I don't think can." The $172,000 is the highest salary ever paid two players on the same team but the Yankees made it clear they are happy to do it. "We have said many times in the past that when the time came we would be happy to pay Mickey $100,000 for a season's work," said club owner Dan Topping and Gen eral Manager Roy barney in a joint statement. "This past year he won the MVP award for the third time and he gained the admiration of fans and baseball people every where with his desire to play ball in the face of injuries that obviously hampered him."

Grants Pass has the op portunity to make the most of it - the chance to all but clinch a return trip to Eugene to defend their 1962 state championship. And, Klamath Falls - The Pelicans, defending league titlists, are hanging on the edge of elimination. Medford's Black Tornado, riding on a five game winning streak can take a half-game lead in the circuit by defeat ing Grants Pass tomorrow. The fact that the Hurricane Is on a victory surge and that Grants Pass has been showing some of the poise that won the Cavemen last year s state crown is expected to make for a terrific battle here on Fri day.
