The Houston Colts said they would have selected Haas, too, but were beaten to the punch by the Mets, who won first choice on the flip of a coin. As it was, the special draft session to help the National league's two tail - enders con sumed only three minutes and 50 seconds. The Mets chose right-handed relief pitcher Jack Fisher from the San Francisco Giants in ad dition to Haas while the Colts picked right - handed reliever Claude Raymond from the Mil waukee Braves. Those were the only three players chosen, at a cost of $30, 000 apiece, from a list of 33 play ers put up by the eight other clubs in the league. Each club made four of its players avail able with the exception of t h e Cincinnati Reds, who offered five. The bee-line for the six-foot-three, 190-pound Haas was caused by his minor league bat ting marks for the last two sea sons. He batted .302 and had 68 runs batted in with Albuquer que during the early portion of the 1962 season and after the parent Dodgers assigned him to Santa Barbara of the Cali fornia league he hit .328 and drove in 41 runs.

The Yanks modestly refrained from making any public victory claims and the British, with tra ditional stiff upper lip, insisted they had a chance to win. But it was easy in observing and talking to the two teams to conclude that the biggest threat facing the U.S. team might be over-confidence.
