Of This and That

NEW YORK. SEPT. 17.-New York desultory city
1or years as far baseball concerned suddenly has
caught the fever drivers at La Guarda and
ldeWd aportS apt to ask Gould we do business on
the basis Of maybe ticket the Yankees yet?" Actually
the Baltimore Orioles intrigue New Workers. At the
orioles hotel the So and belmen who carry
their bags stare in the beardess heroes who
can't even vote CSuch boy I've got, only older.")
Doc Jack KearnS, around town as usual is denying
that his ancient tiger, Archie Moore is looking for
lawsuit by the German ight-heavy CHALLENGER Erich
Schoeppner, who originally brought to this continent
70 hight Moore last July Is in Toronto. Kearns who
managed Dempsey, Walker Maxim and a few others in
MS tlme puts it this way why should let Schoeppner
sue us? SO he's nice looking kid but he can't knock
me out want shot" By "a shot" he one last
payday for Moore against heavyweight-Foyd Patterson
1ngemar JohanSson or Sonny LiSton.
Ray Norton, the Sprinter who was such flop in the
olympic Games is listed high the list of by the
reporters at Idlewd "Newspapermen bothered me and
couldn't eat or Sleep said Norton has signed with
the San Francisco after Topping in the 100
meters 200 meters and relay in Rome "AS far Wilma
is concerned we're just good friends" he stressed He
should be so fast runner. Wilma Rudolph, who
three Gold Medals in the OlympcS probably could have
outrun the overly-pubiczed Norton.
WASHINGTON WRESTLING Promoter Vince McMa-
hon thinks that tomorrows show at Griffith Stadium will
put MIN and his muscular HamleS we'll the $1O0
nothing
that herocs during this crucial series with the Orioles
probably won't but local fans to be fed up with
Mickey Mantle and Whitley Ford The sun apparently
mas set for them as Super-stars. Meanwhile Manager
Paul Richards Of the Orioles speaks gowngy and bemus
ingy of his guy, Mtades Stergios Papastedgo jr
who is better known Mlt Pappas 21year-old ace-if
there is an lace" on the Baltimore staff.
Next to his Brooks Robinson Richards rates
Cets Boyer of the Yankees the third baseman in
baseball But he can't hit with my man. Richards says,
"and never in my life who makes the plays
that Robinson makes"
ONE OF THE BIGGER individual CANDLES OF the en-
bryo football is being taken by Marlin McKeever
half of Southern Caornias famed twins Because 1Tsc
lost its two fubacks Clark Holden and Jim Conroy the
zSOpound 6-toot-l Marlin McKeever is taking while
apparently tortelting his 1859 ranking AAmerica
end Dan Parker the fearless and awesomely large
sports editor of the New Mirror who chews IN the
likes OF Jake LaMotta and Sonny Lston spits them
out writes in the october issue of Buebook that TV fights
still are rugged by the mob. And he names names
The University of Texas must be in the chips Even
the most routine press releases are sent air mail.
Maybe one reason why the weak-Sghted but uncanny
Ray Berry is such star end for the Baltimore Colts is
singular devotion to studying movies According
the Colts, Berry borrowed the films from the team last
winter and spring and devoted nine weeks-fve DAYS
week and eight hours dayrunning and re-runnng the
shifting pictures of the Colts and their opposition.
THE WEAKEST OF ALL press honoriariums must be
the National Football League pass 1t made clear that
does not entite the holder to the press box
nor anywhere else 1t just gets the holder into the park
sometimes.
Cookie Lavagetto must have the patience of saint
Just about every time he speaks to gathering some
heckler will ask, why don't you play the modern Hal
Chase-Juio Becquer? He's the greatest first baseman
In baseball Cookie rumples his hair and allows that
Becquer, indeed is "fashy" and "a real good pinch
hitter" Actually, Becquer pinch hitter is valuable
in the sense that Dave Harris and Cliff Bolton were-thev
give you that occasional hit and thereafter better off
sitting down. Becquer is the fashy one-hand gly in
practice, but among the American Leagues true prac-
TONERS at first base he doesn't rate very high.
