NEW YORK, Oct. 3.-The

|DiMaggio retired, possibly are in
the process of developing one in
this World Series.
Mickey Mantle, 20 years old
and faced with brilliant base
ball future providing his draft
board keeps him on the deferred
list, could be the drawing card
to succeed Babe Ruth, Lou Geh-
rig and DiMaggio.
Mantle, who blasted 23 home
runs this season while batting
.311, is the most exciting player
on the field and probably the
best equipped. He has power.
speed, a strong arm and COM
mendable competitive spirit.
Mickey wasn't as outstanding
as Vic Raschi or Billy Martin yes
terday when the Yankees crushed
the Dodgers, IL. at Ebbets Field
before a crowd of 1892 to even
the series at one game each.
Brooklyn won the first game. 4
to 2. Raschi pitched a three
hitter and didn't allow a hit in
the final 61s innings. Martin
slammed three-run homer and
batted across four runs.
Mantle Batting .555.
But Mantle, with two hits in the
first game and three more in the
second, is batting .555. He's the
fellow who put the tying run in
motion with a booming double
high off the right field scoreboard
in the fourth inning. He was the
man, too. who launched the Yam
KEGS five-run sixth inning by
beating out bunt.
Mantle is a problem child for
opposing inf1elders. If they re-
Ispect his power and play back a
bit for him. he bunts. If they
play a tight infield he has the
power to make them feel they're
not carrying enough life insurance.
Mantle is problem child for
his draft board. also. He has been
Examined twice and rejected twice
because of a bone disease, but he
has been summoned for another
appearance in Oklahoma Monday
and has requested that he be
permitted to take the examination
here.
May BE Big Attraction.
If Mantle isn't plucked for the
armed forces he seems certain to
develop as one of the games big
ATTRACTIONS. In this series he may
meld the future with the present
and emerge as the most talked
about performer. He swings from
the left side Of the plate against
lright-handed pitching, but against
southpaws he bats right, and the
Dodgers are discovering he's an
exceptional player from any angle
Peewee Reese's single, Duke

over Raschi in the third inning
yesterday. Campanella's blow
ended Brooklyn's attack, for the
only Dodgers to reach base in the
last six innings were Rocky Mel

the seventh inning, and Reese

available occasionally in different
parts of the country.
The plant had it's premiere at
the end of July during the straw
berry season at innerojda in West
Sweden, a district producing two
million liters of Strawberries in
two to three hectic harvesting
weeks. 1t is expected to become
of considerable economic import
ance and will also facilitate sup
plying far away districts with per-
ishable food.
The train is the product of a
close collaboration between the
Swedish State Railways, the STAL
freezing plant specialists and the
Helsingborgs Cold Storage Co., the
director of which, Mr.. Tore Laur-
itzen, put forward the idea only
half year ago. The management
of the State Railways were easy to
convince of the great potential val
ue of such a rolling freezing plant,
and the scheme was started upon
without delay.
The Thermo Train consists at
present of one machinery wagon
two refrigerator, or cold-trans-
port, wagons and a fuel and ma
terial van. In the machinery wag-
on, equipped with a complete re-
frigerator plant, the air is cooled
