Serais an Rigney Sees New Era For New York Giants By JOE REICtlLER NEW YORK W-Billy Rigney, a tat two-year contract In his pocket, a. smile on his thin, gaunt-looking face and a world of confidence in his voice, forecast today a "new era" for the New York Oianls. The graying, bespectacled, 37-ycnr-nld successor lo Leo Durochcr rclusod to say whether he thought the Giants would improve their thtrd-place finish In 1956 but he promised a hustling, youth-studded team thai would give the rest ol the National League a battle. "I haven't seen much of the irnaue for the past two years," said Rigney, who successfully led the Minneapolis Millers to the pen nant and LHIIe World Series cham pionship in his second year at the helm of the Giants' American Assn. farm club. "But I'll have to go along with the others in picking Brooklyn as the team to beat. You can t underestimate a world cham pion. I think however, we'll give them a run for It and try not lo let thrm act off to a big Jump, us Ihcy did this year." At a press conference, Rigney discussed his plans for the Giants In '50. He smd the pitching stuff (nd the infield will give him his bicuest headache.

I'd like a whole new picture in the pitching staff. I have several newcomers in mind who I think have a good chance to make It. One is Allan Worthing ton, who did a wonderful Job for me in Minneapolis ... I also like Ramon Monzant. who pitched tine uau lor me belorc the Giants re called him last summer." Asked to name his first live starters, he tentatively selected Johnny Anlonelli, Ruben Gomez. Don Liddle, Monzant and Worth- ington. Ho said he was undecided nbout Jim Ilearn and wanted to see more of the others before form ing any opinion. "I'd like to see Foster Ca.stlc man, who had a brief trial with the Giants early this year, at sec ond base." Rigney said. "I think he can be as good a second base man as anybody, He was troubled with bad knees before but an op eration has fixed him up." Rigney named outfielders Willie Mays, Don Mueller, nnd shortstop Alvin Dark as his solid men. Gail Harris, the rookie brought up Irom Minneapolis In inidscason, will be given a thorough shot at first base. Daryl Spencer, who will be re leased from service next month, will battle with incumbent Hank Thompson for the third base Job. Whltey Lockiiian. who divided his 1955 chores between lirst and left field, will be in left If Harris makes good. If not, Whitey will return to lirst, unless he is traded.

UNDEFEATED While counting the receipts of tonight's sellout. Orange Bowl of ficials may be listening tomorrow for returns from, of all places, the Cotton Bowl, where powerful Okla homa, with 21 straight victories, meets old rival Texas In an an nual scrap. If the Sooners can get past Texas, as they're favored to. then the Orange Bowl can look forward with good reason to a bat tle of undefeated titans on New Year's Day, Oklahoma vs. Mary land. After tomorrow, Oklahoma plays only Big Seven teams, which haven't beaten their perennial con ference champion in nine years, nnd Oklahoma AA.-M.
