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. Cook, a disappointment as
a third baseman last year, un-

Wyoming
ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. 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.

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.
