Griffith
Says Mantle
'Overrated1
WASHINGTON MV "Mickey
Mantle is probably the most over
rated player in baseball," Calvin
Griffith said Thursday.
Griffith Is executive vice Presi
dent of the Washington Senators,
who own a bit of baseball property
named Jim Busby.
"Sure. Mantle's a good outfield
er," Griffith said in an interview.
"but he isn't as good as Busby.'
Griffith said that it Mantle were
playing for anybody but the New
York Yankees, "you'd hardly ever
hear of him."
His Idea wns ihat tile Yankee
publicists and New York sports
writers have built Mantle up into
something he is not.
"If Busby were playing for the
Yankees," Griffith said, "they'd
be calling him another Tris Speak
er or something."
Mantle, the youngster from Com
merce, Okla., is out of action
as the result of a knee Injury and
won't be In the lineup when the
Ynnkees play the Senators on
opening day here next Tuesday,
The Yankees' successor lo Joe
DiMnggio. he has been billed In
many parts as one of the hottest
prospects to hit the major leagues
In some time. Griffith well re
members his power, since it was
in the ball park here that Mantle
socked a 565-foot home run last
year.
BusfrV. a native of Kenedy, Tex.
is at 27 nearly five years older
than Mantle. Griffith regards him
as one of the most underrated
players In the league.
Mantle, considered an expert In
grabbing flies, "can't compare
with Busby as fielder," Griffith
said.
Then there's the mailer of hit
ting. Last year Mantle batted .292.
Busby's average was .312.
Mantle batted In 92 runs and
Busby 82, but Griffith noted that
a lot more Yankees were on base
last season for Mantle to drive
home than there were Senators
ahead of Busby.

leg nozzle. The deciding fall came

Underway
AUGUSTAi Ga. It The big boys
of the 20th anniversary Masters
Golf Tournament shoved their hot
practice rounds into the back
ground today and settled down to
the deadly serious business of play
ing under pressure.
With a field of brilliant golfers
such .as the Masters draws, the
pressure is terrific. Sensationally
low practice rounds don't mean a
thing when they start playing for
keeps. Take it from Ed ( Porky i
Oliver, the Lemont, ill., veieitn
who was runner-up to Ben Hopan
in the 1953 Masters, porky itrea a
34-30 4 in practice yesterday,
matching the competitive record
for the Augusta National course.
It was the lowest tuneup round
turned in, but Porky wasn't exactly
overjoyed about It.
"I don't like these kind," he said.
"They don't count."
He may have remembered last
year, when Lloyd Mangrum fired
a practice 63 and took a 74 in tnc
opening round.
Low scoring In the warmuus
mav have prompted Hogan s pre
diction that his record 274 of last
year will be broken.

NEW YORK One of the most
frequently heard sounds of spring
out our way, running only second
to the mating calls of the hot rods,
is the urgent demand to know
"What's chances of beating those
blai.kety-blank Yankees this time?"
It is easy to gain the impression
that the five-time world champions
are not overwhelmingly popular,
; In order lo preserve a certain
amount of professional standing in
the neighborhood and at the same
time leave an opening against the
autumn, we have been using a sort
of two-pronged answer with good
effect: (l) "Chances don't look
bad at all. They got troubles and

it's hard to pick the team that can
beat 'em."
This answer represents the dis

training camps,
PERPLEXED
The truth Is that, with the Ameri
can League opener only a week
away, the country is full of experts
who are In a very perplexed stale:
They have strong bunch that '.he
Yankees have lost something im
portant during the winter besides
Blllle Martin and might be takn
at last. They wish heartily they
could put their finger on the club
capable of doing It Cleveland, Bos
ton or Chicago.
But they can't, and so, with a few
exceptions to please the home folks
they are going to pick Casey Sten
gel's outfit, aging mound staff and
all, to hang on and make It six

league titles, - though 'not riece-i-sarily
the same number of world
championships. Many believe
Brooklyn will wear them out in tha
next playoff. This is the case here
aa we make the annual stab at the
orde rof finish:
(1) New York, (2) Chicago, (1)
Cleveland, (4)- Boston. (5) Wash
ington, (6i Philadelphia, (7) Bab
tiniore, (8) Detroit. ' -
FALLEN BACK '... ".'
Cleveland, having fired and
fallen back, finished second last
year, for the third straight time,
though this time by the Increastsd
margin of 8V2 games. The Chicago
White Sox, are setting a sizzling
eany pace, faded to third, three
more games .away from the top.
Boston was fouriri, 4'i behind the
White Sox and 7". In front of tha
fifth-place Washington Senators,
who nevertheless played .500 ball
lor the season.
