But his work in Yankee Stadi um's treacherous lell field was something else. Norm played in 1.14 sanies in 11158, his first year as a regular, and carried a .Mil batting average into the World Series. Then Milwaukee fly balls, aided by high winds and a beam ins -sun, began dropping all over left field. Norm was benched. Last year he hoped thines would he different, hut his outlicldmg became so unsure that his hitting followed suit. Stensel finally benched him. Then the Yankees traded Sie hern, Don Larson, Hank Bauer and Marv Throneberry to Ihe A's for Kent Hadley, Joe DeMaestri and Boger Maris, the left fielder they wanted.

I It is about to become the vic tim or changing times teeming housing developments, super high ways and 14-handicap golfers who can't be disturbed when they putt. Roy Moriarity, a young ew York motion picture executive who is an ollicial of the U.S. Polo Assn. said loday he didn't knowj how long he could keep the game going at .Meadow Brook, one of Ihe world's most famous playing fields.

Then the golfers came. Now it is 95 per eenl golf." Because Ihe polo field at Mea , riow Brook no longer pays its way, some members of the club are reported anxious to sell il. The present polo field is not the original which once shook under the hooves of galloping ponies and the blasts from Ihe slicks of such giants as Devereaux Milburn.t Tommy Hitchcock, Winslon Guest. Cecil Smith and the glamorous) Cavanaugli brothers from the Ar gentine. A few years ago a super high way stabbed through the property, forcing a re-arrangement of both the polo field and golf course, which slill are adjacent.

Philadelphia, Los Angeles and the Chicago White Sox were not scheduled. The While Sox' J 2-6 exhibition record slill tops the American League, but St. Louis now leads the majors with 12-5. Ken Boyer homered and singled for Ihe Cardinals, but four Pills burgh errors, good lor three un earned runs in Ihe eighth, did Ihe big damage. liuss Nixon, Ihe catcher who didn't want to go back to Ihe In dians, singled home the tie-breaker against the Giants. Nixon had to return to Cleveland when Sam my While of Boston quit baseball and the deal in which they were involved was voided. The Cubs won their seventh straight with Krnie Banks and rookie outlielder Lou Johnson con tinuing their sharp hilling. Tom Sturdivanl pitched seven shutout innings for Ihe Red Sox but was shelled in Ihe ninth. fore they even threw Ihe first ball in practice last week. The Trojan mentor, Gerry Kempf. was a little more lhan dis-, turned to learn that only 14 play ers showed up for Ihe team. How ever, Kempf had only a handful leain unisnen wun a z-b record. 1 Kempf has high hopes for Jim I Ryan, a senior Iransler student Irom Twin Falls. Idaho. Ryan has seen considerable action around the diamond and is not only famil iar with several infield positions, bill also will try his skills on Ihe mound this year. Ryan previously played varsity ball for Bend be fore transferring to Twin Falls where he was a regular. The youngster is the best hitter on the club. Another ball player with consid- erable experience is pitcher John Jackson. Both chuckers are right banders and while one is hurling ihe olher will be holding down an' infield position. Kempf sees junior Bob Amberg behind the plale catching Ryan's and Jackson's pilches. Amberg is fair slickman. In the infield are lirst baseman Carl Shuck, a senior. This is Shuck's lirst year of ball alter transferring Irom Bonanza.
