That would be Mickey Mantle, who burst on the baseball scene billed as a player who merely had to go through the motions to be swept into the Hall of Fame. But Casey Stengel, his manager indicated in a roundabout manner that master Mickey had better get going. Stengel named the three most valuable players during his 10 year tenure as skipper of the New York Yankees and, although Mickey has been with him eight years, the Mantle name wasn't even third. Old Casey named, in order, Joe DiMaggio, Yogi Berra and sur prise Hank Bauer. "Bauer tries and runs out everything," Stengel said. "Man He has everything to make him the greatest but there are times Gate -Crasher Eyes Badger Grid Crowd MADISON, Wis. (UPD-Cy Butt Is the local version of the late famed gate - crasher.

He is a familiar figure in this university town and a graduate 'of the University of Wis consin, having been a student there from 1927 until 1953 when ; he received a degree in law His elongated university career was due to frequent misunder standings with the administration and the fact that he had a thirst for knowledge far beyond he average. "I wanted to be edu cated, and I got educated, said. His most notable passages through the gates without a ticket occurred at a sellout Wisconsin Illinois game in 1953 and a later game against an opponent now forgotten. . At the Illinois game, Cy had a ticket, but gave it to a friend from California, Robert Burkhard. Cy said "I'll be in a seat before you are." He was. On this occasion. Cy entered the confines of Camp Randall Stadium as a vendor of potato chips, re plete with white cap, white apron and cardboard box filled with goodies. At the later game. Cy entered as a wheelchair patient along with a number of bonafide paraplegics who had been given free admis sion to the game. The encounter this weekend be tween undefeated and - third ranked Wisconsin and rugged Iowa will be a sure sellout at 83,710 fans. It is a challenge wnrlhv of a gate-crashers salt. hecy has risen to the challenge but ;has not yet selected the means by which he will enter the sta dium sans ticket. He is toying with the idea of entering as a Western Union oper ator in full regalia or. and this is a long-shot possibility, as a fully attired member of the Wisconsin football team. Scorecards Needed To Follow Pro Clubs NEW YORK (UPD disappointed if you can't keep track of the players as they rush on and off the field in the Na tional Football League's "revolv- he doesn't look like it. The whole thing is up to him." BLASTS HOMER FEVER Stengel also had harsh words for a "home run fever" on the ball club and pointed out that he d rather have a single that won a ball game than two home runs at the tail end of a lost cause. Mantle, it can be pointed out, won his third home run crown this past season with 42. But he also batted a mere .304, drove in only 97 runs and struck out a total of 123 times which is his all-time highest. It also was the third time that Mantle had struck out more than 100 times in a season for a total of 77fi strikeouts in eight seasons. The flagrancy of this can be fully appreciated only when you note that it took Babe Ruth 22 years to compile the major league re cord of 1,330 strikeouts in a life- lime Mantle, at the rale he is going. is a cinch to break the Hum lifetime record in another five years. Ruth never struck out 100 times in any season and. when he did, he looked good doing it. Mantle merely fumes back to the water cooler and gives it a wrathful kick. STENGEL REPRIMANDS Such a scene during one of the recent World Series games at Milwaukee drew a vigorous repri mand from 'Stengel right on the bench. It was noted that the next time he sat down, in a game in which he went hit less in four trips to the plate, Mantle did it in quiet anger. One of the reasons why the Yankees got rid of firebrand Billy Martin was that he al legedly led Mantle astray in so journs among the bright lights. But those close to the club insist that Mantle simply wasn't grown up and began to believe his press clippings at too early an age. Somebody should point out to him that, when he reaches 27 on Mon dav. he is no longer a boy. In all fairness, he had a heroic 1956 season and, in addition to rwt ho ins nlainnns."

The coaches, polled by I'PI just before Sunday's start of the new NBA season, unanimously picked the Celtics and the defending champion St. Louis Hawks to win their division titles. They could not agree unani mously on which team would win the championship playoffs next spring, but five of them cast their vote for the Celtics to take hack the title they lost to the Hawks last April. Two picked St Louis to win the playoffs and one voted tor Minneapolis. In forecast ing individual honors, the coaches' consensus favored Bob Pettit of the Hawks as the league's outstanding player and Baylor, the fi-foot-5 former Seattle University All America, as the best first-year player. Six of the eight coaches cast their vote for Pettit, the talented 6 foot - 9 forward who was the NBA's third highest scorer even though he played several weeks of last season with a cast encasing his broken wrist. Pettit averaged 24.6 points in 70 games and was the league's second highest re- bounder with an average of 17.4 The baseball Pirates climbed from last place to second in the National League. Now the Hawks, who just managed to escape the cellar last year, arc sitting atop the hockev circuit's standings looking down on even the power ful Montreal Canadiens. The Hawks chalked up their third victtory Thursday night with a surprising 7-2 victory over the Detroit Redwings. The three triumphs plus a tie gives them a total of seven points, one more than the Canadiens. who turned back the Toronto Maple Leafs 4-3 with a third period rally. Lome Ferguson, former Red wing, and Erie Nesterenko paced the Hawks to their one-sided vic tory with two goals each. They each scored in the first period and added another in the final session. Dickie Moore's goal at 17:09 of the third period gave the Canadi ens their come-from-behind tri umph. Moore's second goal of the game came after Rernie Geoffrion had pulled Montreal even at 7:41. Henry Richard had a band m all of Montreal's goals. Bob Pulford tallied twice for the Leals, both in the first period. NEW YORK (AP) - The dif-: ference between winning and los ing the 1958 World Series meant $2,863 for each member 'of the New York Yankees who received a full series share. Baseball Commissioner Ford Frick disclosed the distribution Thursday. The Yanks voted 32 full winning shares amounting to $8,- 59 each. A full losing slice for each of 31 Milwaukee players was worth $5,896. The winning share for the Yanks was $165 less than the Braves players got after beating New York in the 1957 series. Milwaukee had 30 full shares last year. The losing share for the Braves this season amounted to $290 more than that of the 1957 Yanks who divided 33 full shares. Virgil Trucks, who joined the Yanks in mid-June, received a full share. A three-fourth share, worth SUGAR BOWL HIS DISH UNIVERSITY, Miss. W-In two games in the Sugar Bowl sta dium last season.

Ole Miss beat Tulane 50-0 and Texas 39-7 in Brown's two big games. $6,569.33, was accorded Murry Dickson, who was acquired from Kansas City in late August, A half-share of $4,379.54 went to Sal Maglie, who was released by New York in mid-June. Fritz Brickell, Bobby Del Greco and Johnny James, all of whom played briefly, received one-fourth shares. Last Monday Frick revealed that he had fined 22 Milwaukee players $50 apiece for premature disclosure of their financial break down. The commissioner said, "I fined only 22 because they were the only ones eligible to vote on the series' cuts. A player must be on the roster June 1 and remain until the end of the season to be permitted to be at the meeting."
