Iowa Retains Top Ranking
In Poll;
By THE ASSOCUTED PRESS
The Iowa Hawkcyes, who set
their own pace in a 28-7 season
opening victory over California
last Saturday, set it well enough
to retain the No. 1 spot in the
. weekly Associated Press college
football poll.
Twenty-four of the 49 members
of the AP board of experts cast
their first-place ballots for the
Hawkeyes of the Big Ten. With!
plenty of secondary support from
the other voters, they wound up
' with 424 points and a clear edge
over Mississippi. The Rebels, also
No. 2 a week ago, wound up with
IB first-place votes and 325 points.
Ole Miss whipped Kentucky 20-6
for its second in a row.
Georgia Tech, noticed but un
ranked after clouting Southern
California 27-7 in its first game,
bolted up to third place after
thumping Rice 24-0.
A chance for measuring com
parative strength will come Satur
day, when Iowa plays Southern
Cal at Los Angeles. Georgia Tech
fans will be interested to see
whether Iowa' can handle the
Trojans with anywhere near the
ease that the Engineers did 10
days ago.

FRED HUTCHINSON
NEW YORK (AP)-Lo. the poor
Reds. Doesn't anyone think they
can win?
On the eve of the autumnal ex
travaganza known as the World
Series all the commotion seems to
be about the New York Yankees
perennial American League
nominee, who'll face the National
League champion, the Cincinnati
Reds, in the opener of the best
of-seven set Wednesday at Yankee
Stadium.
Those nebulous figures who
compile the betting odds have the
Yankees favored at 24 to 1. That
mass of citizenry which suddenly
becomes baseball conscious at se
ries time knows all about redoubt
able Roger Maris and his 61 home
runs, Mickey Mantle's celebrated
ailing hip and his home runs.
Whitey Ford's prodigious pitching
and probably about Elston How
ard's high batting average.
This preoccupation with the
Yankees is reflected in the press,
radio and television. It's Yankees,
Yankees, Yankees. There is tajk
of a four-game sweep, such as
the Yanks staged against the
Reds the last time the two clubs
met in 1939.
The poor Reds. You'd hardly
know tney were in town.
But they are. They'll show up
ready to face the awesome Mans
& Co. and they don't appear to
be quaking in their boots at the
prospect.
Their manager, hefty and com
bat-spirited Fred Hutchinson, put
it this way: "It'll be a helluva
fight. I've read we're supposed to
lose, maybe in four straight. Well,
I haven't told my players. Games
are won on the field, anyway, not
in the papers or on the radio or
in television booths."
Hutchinson concedes the Yan
kees have the pitching and the
fielding, and he s impressed but
not overwhelmed by the Yankee
power. Then he counters with the
Reds' assets hitters like Frank
Robinson. Vada Pinson, Gordy
Coleman, Gene Freese and Wally
Post; pitchers such as Joey Jay,
lim O'Toole, Bob Purkcy, hen
Johnson and Jim Brosnan.
As for the' odds. Hutchinson
says: So, we re z'z to l unaer-
dogs. Last spring it was as high
as 60 to 1 we woulrin t win the
pennant. But we did."

'Mick' Remains Doubtful
Starter In Series
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
NEW YORK (AP!-The guess
here is that Mickey Mantle will
be on the sidelines and Roger
Maris will be in centerfield when
the New York Yankees face the
Cincinnati Reds Wednesday in the
first game of the World Series.
There is divided opinion among
the Yankees whether "The Mick",
as his teammates call him, will
he ready (or the opener. The
slugging centerfielder left the'hos-
pital Monday, looking pale, drawn1
and underweight after undergoing
a minor operation for an abscess
on his right hip.

NEW YORK (AP) Don't

"Even if he plays, he'll prob

Dr. Sydney Gaynor, the Yanks'
physician, was more optimistic.
"I think he II play In the first

"If 1 feel Wednesday as I do
right now, I won't be able to
play," he said. "I'm still weak,
the leg hurts and I can't run on
it. I've lost five pounds, too."
Maris, who visited Mickey in
the hospital Sunday night after
making baseball history y blast-
ing his 61st home run, was not
so sure whether his slugging
teammate would be ready.
Mick's, pretty sick," Roger
said. "Nobody wants to see him
in the lineup more than I but
he's hurting. You know Mick. He
hates to sit one out. He'd play on
one leg, if he could. But he just
can t run.
If Mantle has to sit out the
opener, Mans will be switched
from right field to center with
Hector Lopez taking over in right
and batting seventh. Maris, of
course, will be in the third slot
with Elston Howard in Mantle's
cleanup spot.
Roger has no particular love for
centerfield, where he played oo
casionally when he was a menv
ber of the Cleveland and Kansas
City clubs. He also played there
during the last 10 days of the
past season when Mantle was
sidelined by a heavy cold and the
abscess.
'I didn't like It at first," Roger
said, "but I'm getting accustomed
to it. Of course, I can't play that
position like Mantle, but the more
I play there, the easier I find It."

Most observers figure the only
chance the Reds' have of spring
ing the same kind of upset as the
Pittsburgh Pirates engineered last
year is for their pitchers to

The Reds will depend on
O'Toole, Joey Jay and Bob Pur
