They won SO games and lost only
18 in Municipal Stadium during
the regular season for a .766
percentage. The. Giants road
record was 44-33.
At least you won't hear much
about dinky home runs the next

to straightaway center, $50 to
right-center and 800 to the

Leo Durocher thinks Johnny
Antonelli may develop into one
of the greatest lefthanded pitch
ers in the history of the game.
Although Leo won't rate Anto-
nelli as more valuable than VIII
lie mays or Al LARK, ne says the
Giants would not have won the
pennant without Antonelli.

Rosen has q bad muscle pull
In his right thigh and he failed
to score in the first inning from

held I'D at third and never did
get all the way around.
"I know Willie Mays made a
great throw on the play" he
crimaced, ''but If I were healthy
I would have scored on it. There
aren't many who can beat me
going from second to home.
Mays would have needed more
than an arm to get me-"
Manager Al Lopez was under

"The balls are falling In the

"They are getting hits. even II
they are cheap hits, and they are
getting them at the right time

but it goes right at their fielders

Bottle Club Law Valid,
COLLEGE Park Believes

The town of College Park has
adopted its own bottle club ordi-
nance and town officials claim
it has none of the reported de-
fects that may make a similar
new Countrywide law unconsti-
tutional.
The ordinance, prepared by
Blair H. Smith, town attorney
and the Democratic candidate
for States attorney in Prince
Georges County, provides a fine
Of not more than $50 for each
day of after hours club operation.
The ordinance was adopted,
according to town spokesman,
after the Meadowview Club, an
after hours spot, opened near
the University of Maryland
campus last month. The place
was closed after a few days.
Police waited outside and
arrested employees and customers
for minor infractions.
Two other bottle clubs have
obtained injunctions blocking
police enforcement of the County
law while it's constitutionality
is argued in the courts.
