In Braves Lineup

Milwaukee (ANPl-Centerfield-

waukee Braves lineup for lO6
games, was a happy man as he
rejoined his teammates last week.
His teammates made il an even
happier occasion for him. as they
whipped the front-running San
Francisco Giants.
Bruton had been sidelined since
mid-season Of last year when he
tore the Hgaments in his right
knee in a collision with teammate
Felix Mantilla. He missed the
World Series, which the Braves
won from the New York Yankees
and had been under the treatment
of a specialist. During his ailment,
his right leg shrunk to the size
OF his arm.
Was Almost Discouraged
Last week, in his first official
time in uniform since the injury,
he played in the top half Of the
ninth inning and said afterwards
he felt real good. He admitted
however, that the leg stin
drags a bit" But ne added: "The
doctor told me playing will help
liz, and that's all right with me.
Bruton had been working out in
County stadium while teammates
were on the road. Recalling his re,
/ covery. he said there were times
when he doubted whether he'd ever
be back, but agreed that his re,
turn gave him a deep personal sat,

his mark was up to .4l9.
If Willie continues at his terri
fic pace, he might again win the
National League most valuable
player award. He won it in 1854
when he led the New York Giants
to the pennant. In four seasons, he
has led the MI in hitting once,
in home runs once Isl in 1855, in
triples three times in stolen bases

He is a defensive genius. Frequent

Willie walloped a 1Oth-inning home

that he is so skillful in handling

Mays is quite a ball player. And
San Francisco fans love him.

1858 May Be
Willie Muy's
Greatest Season

San Francisco (ANP)-Before
the New York Giants shift to San
Francisco became official, it was
predicted that Willie NAYS would
enjoy his greatest season in the
majors.
The 1883 campaign is just reach
ing the quarter mark, but it ap-
pears that Mays is out to make
the fOrecasters look good and also
prove what such baseball experts
as Leo Durocher, his former man.
ager, and Tom Meany, the mag
azine writer, have contended for
sometime-that Willie is the pre-
mier baseball player Of this era.
DurOcher, now a baseball teIe-
caster, insists Mays is the great
est player who ever lived. Many
says absolutely that Willie is
superior to the highly touted
Mickey Mantle.
Well, Mays is out to establish
his claim this season. In the first
"a San Francisco games, Mays
was the second best hitter in the
majors. His .4O5 mark was second
only to Stan Musial, Of the St.
Louis Cardinals. In so games,
Musial was batting. 459, but his
average was receding, while Mays
was on the rise.
Mays was the leader i'm the
number of his (6O), triples (5),
runs 1851, and tied for first in
home runs 1S) and second in
RIBS 1897.
His most spectacular perform
ance came in four games with the
Los Angeles Dodgers when he col.
leCted u hits in II trips in four
games. His production included
seven home runs willie had hit
only one before the spree), two
triples and one double.
He drove in Is runs, including
five in each of two games. He
also smashed the second grand
slam home run Of his career-his
other was struck against the
Dodgers in Brooklyn's Ebbetts
field.
Before Willie went on the ram
page, he was batting .S72 in %
games. His single home run was

A bride of a few months
wants to know the diff
ference between "old" and
aged" meat.
Here's her answer. The
United States Department
of Agriculture has estab-
lished eight grades of meat:
Prime, choice, good, stand
ard, commercial, utility,
cutter and Gamer, and
bull. And there are as many
differences in prices as
there are grades and varia-
tons in aging"

SO cattle qualities as Prime,
it is not generally available
in retail outlets but is usu-
ally served in the finer
restaurants, hotels and
steak houses. If that steak
or roast beef you had in
that excellent restaurant
tasted better than it does
at home it is probably be-
cause it was a prime cut Of
aged beef.
Prime steers are corn
fed, usually for the last nine
or IL months of their 20
month life. During this
special feeding period. the
cattle are kept in quiet
feed lots and cared for like

cooking is to use a mod

of the steak 2 to 3 inches
