Major league home run pro-
duction tailed OF four per cent
in 1857 with the Yankees suf-
fering the greatest loss.
Final statistics compiled by
the Associated Press showed
that 80 fewer homers were hit
the past season than in 1856.
The total for both leagues was
2.202 as compared with 2.2s4
g year ago.
Both leagues were affected
By the slump. National League
batsmen collected 1.178 this
year and American League hit
ters 1.024. In 1856, the az
gregate was 1919 in the Ma
tional and lots in the Ameri-
can.
The Yankees. who usually
lead their league in this de-
partment. played second fiddle
to both the Athletics and Red
Sex. Kansas City paced the
AL with 166 homers. Boston
had 1853. The Yankees wal
loped 100 in Sc and only las

Inc only surprise IN the
Yankee lineup is Stengel's Sc
lection Of Kubek. a rookie. over
EnoS Slaughter. q veteran Of
many campaigns In left field.
"Kubek has played I'VE posi-
tons for me-" Stengel said.
and he's one Of those unusual
youngsters who plays better I'M
der pressure and 1t doesn't mat
ter to him from which side the
pitcher throws"
Based on Experience
Stengel's selection OF Cole
man to play second over Bobby
Richardson was based strictly
on experience. The same was
true in his choice OF Andy
Carey at third over Jerry
Lumpe.
Ford. who won the Series
opener against Brooklyn In
1855 but lost the first game to
Sal Maglie and the Dodgers
last year. was Casey's solid Sc
lection despite his ordinary sea-
son record of Ills. A lame
shoulder kept him out OF action
for nearly two months in mid
season.
"Once I was certain that
Ford's arm was sound again, {"
Casey said. 81 never considered
anyone else. Whitley likes 1t
when the going is tough"
There also was never any
question about SPAIN pitching
the opener for the Braves.
Winner OF nine straight in the
stretch drive. the 36-year-old
Oklahoman was the teams top
winner. with the best earned
run averAge. and the most ex-
perienced pitcher on the stan.
His 81 victories during the sea-
son topped all pitchers in both
leagues.
Only AdcOck Alling
The Braves. except for Joe
Adcock. will be in top physical
condition. The big first base
man still experiences difnculty
running on the leg he broke
last July and 1t has hampered
his hitting somewhat.
The Braves arrived in New
York. yesterday, confident OF
knocking OF the proud Yankees.
They we're scheduled to work
out at Yankee Stadium this
afternoon. after the Yankees
had taken their turn.
One thing can be sure.
Manager Fred Haney will have
his outflelders practice playing
carom shots of the tricky bar
riers in left and right field.
Haney said yesterday he was
well aware Of the treacherouS
Yankee Stadium outfield but
did not expect HIS players TO
experience too much difiiculty.
II know all about Yankee
Stadium and its outfield fences"
he said. Il played there with
Detroit and other American
League clubs and / managed
there with the st. Louis Browns.
/ don't think the outfield in
Yankee Stadium is any tougher
than the one in Pittsburgh. My
boys didn't do too badly there
so why should they have trouble
In Yankee Stadium"
Haney said he was glad that
the Yankees had been made
favorites.
THAT means we'll set more
credit whah we win IT," the So
year-old Californian said.

Whatever the reason or rea-

You're repaying your out

What you're repaying on old

in new loans. In this great
