Early Schedule to Provide
Quick Sizeup Of Senators
Rivals Concede
Nothing to Solid
Pennunt Picks
BY the Associated Press


The defending CHI am p o n
Dodgers and Yankees were solid
picks to win again on the eve
of the opening of the major
league season--but that doesn't
mean the other clubs should
save time and energy by sitting
it out.
It has been proved many
times before that anything can
happen in baseball. Only a year
ago, the Indians, after establish
ing an American League record
of Ill victories, and the Giants,
after a four-game sweep of the
Indians in the World Series. had
things happen to them. Both
finished as also-rans after hav-
ing been picked to repeat.
Similar things can happen to
the Yankees and Dodgers. AL
ready injuries and sore arms
have slowed Mickey Mantle,
Hank Bauer, Elston Howard, Gil
McDougald. Irv Noren, all of
the Yankees. as well as Brook
lyn's Billy Loes, Karl Spooner,
Sandy Koufax. Peewee Reese
and Sandy Amoros. Fortunately
for the two clubs, the troubles
occurred before the start of the
regular season. But no one can
predict when lightning will
strike again and how often.
Scramble Possible
The Yankees and Dodgers
definitely appear to have the
overall strength to repeat, but
serious injuries to key men could
scramble the entire pennant
picture.
Boston, Cleveland and Chicago
in the American League and
Milwaukee, st. Louis. New York
and Cincinnati in the National
are rated as strong if not
stronger, than they were a year
ago.
The Yankees will have three
"cripples" in the lineup tomor-
row as they help the Senators
inaugurate the home season in
Washington. Mantle still has a
swelling of the hamString muscle
he pulled several weeks ago.
Howard has pulled groin
