UPI Telephoto Courageous Casey Striving To Pull Mets Out Of Cellar EDITOR'S NOTE : This is the 17th of 20 dispatches on the 1963 prospects of the major league baseball clubs. By LEO H. PETERSEN UPI Sports Editor ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (UPI' Courageous Casey Stengel game ly keeps striving to make some semblance of order out of base ball's biggest mess the N e w York Mets. The patchwork Mets occasioned quite a bit of surprise in Florida by playing better than .500 base ball through their first 20 exhi bition games of the spring. They looked a lot better down here than the bedraggled crow which set a modern record by losing 120 games last year. Still, they're a long way from being a winner and shrewd old Casey knows he can be in for another long and weary summer. "We're a better club now than we were a year ago," Stengel claims. "I ain't gonna say where we're gonna finish and I don't see how anyone can. I'll say this much, though: We're sure not going to lose 120 games again." Pitching Stronger Chances are he's right because the Mets do appear to be some what stronger in what was their weakest department last year the pitching staff. Stengel points out the fact he can muster a decent looking starling staff built around veter an Roger Craig, who won 10 and lost 24 last year; Al Jackson (8 20i and Jay Hook i8-19. Top candidate of the moment for the fourth starting job is righthander Carlton Willey, pur chased from the Milwaukee Braves for whom he had a 2-5 mark last year. All lour of the top starting candidates have pitched well this spring. Casey feels he may come up with two more starters from among Tracy Stallard and Galen Cisco, two former Red Sox pitch ers who have impressed this spring; Don Rowe, who was 11-fl at Columbus, and Larry Foss, who; was 10-5 at Ashcvillc. Johnny Kucks, who used to pitch for Stengel with the Yanks, has made a determined but dis appointing bid for a relief berth and may be kept to help along lclty Ken MacKenzie 1 5-4 . Lost Two Outfielders The Mets lost two of last year's outfielders when Richie Ashburn quit to go into television work and Gene Woodling drew his re lease for speaking Ins mind, hut Casey has been quite happy with the work of center fielder Jim Hickman. Some feel Hickman is the Mets' best player even though he batted only .245 last year. Slugging Frank Thomas, no ga zelle defensively, will be back in left field on the strength of his 34 homers last season and Uic right field job will be divided be tween Duke Snider and Cliff Cook. Snider, now 36, was purchased from the Dodgers this week for S30.000 and says he can play full time.

IUPD The University of New Mexico track team won all but one event Saturday, running up a 121-24 score on Western Athletic Confer ence rival Wyoming at University Stadjum here. New Mexico is undefeated in dual competition this year, and counts usually powerful Kansas among its victims. Wyoming won the 440-yard re lay, although Cowboy anchor man Herman Robinson crossed the fin ish line 1.5 seconds behind New Mexico's Adolph Plummcr. The judges disqualified New Mexico for an illegal baton pass. Wyo ming's time was 42.8 seconds. Plummcr won the 220-yard dash in :20.9, taking one-tenth of a second off his school record for the 220 around a full turn. Ken Medley won the broad jump (23' 6"! and triple jump M7' 9-V) for New Mexico, and Larry Kennedy won the shot put t50' 6"! and the discus (162' 2"'. Wyoming performers took four second places Paul McArdle in the shot put, Robinson in the 220, Tom Binning in the 440-yard dash, and Mike Stucky in the high jump. Third place points were earned for the Cowboys by Gerald Spicer in the shot put. discus and pole vault, Tom Hardy in the 440. Robinson in the 100-yard dash. Ro man Pysanczyn. in the triple jump and Larry Silver in the two-mile run. Saturday when he pole vaulted 16 feet, 1 inch at the Texas Relays in Austin. Hansen, a senior at the Houston school, barely scraped over the bar al 16-1 on his last allotcd try. It was his first time to better the 16-foot mark. The recognized col legiate record is 15 feet, 10'i inches. Hansen tried three times to beat the pending outdoor mark of 16 3'2 by John Pennel of Northeast Louisiana, but missed all three times. His vault bettered the list ed national collegiate record set by George Davies of Oklahoma State in 1961. Earlier, John Camien of Little Emporia, Kan., State sped from behind in the last 50 yards to up set sub-4 minute milers Dyrol Burleson of Oregon and Bill Dot son of Kansas in 4:02.6, fast on the soggy University of Texas track, to win the special Jerry Thompson Mile. Last night's preliminaries were washed out by torrential rains, and the track was still sloppy Saturday. Hansen's pole vault mark was the only new record in the Col lege and University classes at the giant track and field meet. Oregon State Tops Linfield CORVALLIS l UPI i Oregon State avenged a doublehcader loss to Linfield earlier last week with 4-3 and 5-3 decisions over the Wildcats in a baseball twinbill Saturday. The wins left the Beavers with a 7-5 season's record. The losses were the first for the Wildcats in six starts. Little Cecil Ira scattered eight hits to pitch Oregon Stale to its win in the first game. He struck out five Jim Sandsness hit a two run homer for Linfield in the sec ond inning. In the second contest, winning pitcher Ron Steven collected a two-run single and Gene Milliard smashed a two-run homer in the lourlh inning.

Strang "' and Crary. Dan Brand Top Matman In Meet SAN FRANCISCO IUPD - Dan Brand of the San Francisco Olym pic Club walked off with top hon ors in the National A.A.U. Ama teur Wrestling championships. Brand captured first place in 213'2-pound class in the freestyle wrestling and was named out standing wrestler in both the Iree style and Greco-Roman wrestling. He also had the most falls, five, in the least aggregate time. The Olympic Club won the team championship in the freestyle events, followed by the New York Athletic Club and the Multnomah Athletic Club of Portland, Ore. The University of Colorado was named the best college team and Japan captured the best foreign team honors. Eliji Watanabe of Japan made the quickest fall in the tourna ment with a time of .19, followed by his fellow countryman, Kimi hiro Oribe, whose time was :23.

' Praises Infield Casey really warms up when he talks about his infield. "This has been one of the best departments of the spring." he says happily. "We've got a lot of fine looking young fellas in the infield and they showed me plen ty this spring." Stengel was especially delight ed by the work of shortstop Al -Moran, who started the spring on the Buffalo roster and could be a regular with the Mets, and second baseman Larry Burright. obtained from the Dodgers. Burright has been one of the big surprises of the camp and even he has received plenty of competition from rookies Ted Schreiber and Ron Hunt. Another ex-Dodger. Tim llark ncss, may open the season al first base, with veteran Gil Hodges in back of. him, and Charlie Neal has the third base job all lo himself. Ilarkncss hit .258 for the Dodgers last year and Neal, who was handicapped by injuries, .260 lor the Mets. Shouldn't Disappoint The reserves include holdover Elio Chacon and Rod Kanehl. Kanehl, who cheered Casey with his hustle last year, could step in at either shortstop or second if either Moran or Burright falters. . Choo Choo Coleman, another favorite of Stengel because of the way he swings the bat and han dles low ball pitching, seems des tined to be the No. 1 catcher al though ex-Dodger Norm Sherry and Sammy Taylor are pushing him. All three probably will be retained. Over-all, the Mets are some what improved over last year. They're one club that shouldn't disappoint anyone because no one expects them to win the pennant.
