ST. PETERSBURG. Fla, Mar.
18.-Casey Stengel leaned back
deeper in the shadows of the
dugout, Topped one stumpy leg
over another, tipped his cap
over his eyes. pulled an ear,
clasped him hands behind his
head and said thoughtfully:
IF they're improved in the
league, we will have a very hard
time winning the pennant: if
they haven't, we will have a very
hard time not winning it,"
This was the Old Professors
way of rolling with the question:
do you think the Yankees
could make it six remnants in
a row?"
We've got lot of problems
this year." the Yankee manager
pointed out. Maybe more than
in any other year since I've been
manager.
First of all, we've got to make
up those q games we lost by
the sale of Vic Raschi and the
retirement of Johnny Sain.
Those victories have got to come
from our younger pitchers. Right
now, I don't see where they'll
be coming from.
Must Build Up Bench.
Second, we've got to build up
strong bench, like the one we
had last year. The retirement of
Johnny MiZe and the recall of
Billy Martin to the Army are
bound to hurt us. We've got to
find a fellow who can fill old
Johns shoes as a pinch hitter.
Last year We had two in
fields. If one of my regulars
got hurt. I could always fill his
place with another fellow I
had intended to use Jerry Cole
man as a handy man around
the inf1eld. especially as short
stop. Now. with Coleman my
regular second baseman, I've got
to search elsewhere for that
handy man.
my third problem is Mickey
Mantle. Mickey has been taking
things easy after his knee oper-
alton. He wants to play, but
I'm scared to play him. You
can't be too careful with such
things. Everybody wants to
know whether he'll be ready to
open the season. How the heck
do I know? We've got three
doctors here, but they don't
make any statements"
Sizes Up Opponents.
Stengef believes the Indians
and White Sox will offer the
Yankees the most competition.
The loss of Ted Williams for
any length Of time robs the Red
Sox of any chance they had, he
thinks. He figures the Senators
to head the second division, fol-
lowed by Detroit, Baltimore and
Philadelphia.
Cleveland still has those
pitchers and they may have

"Noren, our fourth outflelder
