less preseason pitching by his Big
Three was only an early sprint
night's dream.
It was only a few weeks ago that
Harvey Haddlx, Vic Rascnl and
Oerry Staley were racking up
goose eggs all over the lot.
But in successive starts since the
regular season began, Haddlx and
Raschl were' pounded off the hill

bleachers are back at Brooklyn,
and it's still the biggest bargain
in baseball.
Nowhere else in the world can
you get a major league ball game

We planked down half a buck
Thursday to watch the Dodger
opener from the poorest but per

VOCIFEROUS
We found the seats just as hard,
the fans just as vociferous and the
antics just as dizzy as v. hen the

The Rio coach, who boasts openly
that he personally put over one
of the biggest basketball buildups
in the history of the game, had
successfully evaded reporters
nearly a week.
Since last Monday's expulsion of
Francis, one of the most prolific
scorers the game has ever known,
Oliver's whereabouts have been a
dark, secret. His traveling signals
even had his family and college
faculty friends confused.
But late Thursday night. Oliver
called the Associated Press, and
said when he was asked where
he had been: "just shoppln'."
Despite a myriad of double-talk
he got the idea across It had been
auccessful trip to market.
Oliver said he and Bevo have
"two, good, solid offers and
either one of them would put each
of us in the five-figure salary
bracket."
He refused though to say what
they were and added "there's
just the slightest chance we'll stay

The place was literally crawling
with truants from hiith school

cheered as loudly as clgar-chomp-

One youth brought in a quart
of orange pop and refuelled him

more popular forms of antl-freeze
as a chill wind whipped across
the unprotected stands.
' One grandmotherly fan bit down
hard on a bagel and yelled to
Roy Campanella: "Lose one,
Roy" He did.
A proud papa sat with his off
