NEW YORK (UPD The mantle
of greatness wasn't fitting too
snugly today on the shoulders of a
young man by the same name.
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

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

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-

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

day in a United Press Interna
tional poll that the Boston Celtics
will regain their pro champion
ship and that Elgin Baylor of the
Minneapolis Lakers will be rookie-of-the-year.
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-

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

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

that he had fined 22 Milwaukee
