PAsCUAL TO FACE SENATORS IN OPENER TOMORROW
1000 Fans Give Twins Roorinq Welcome

ST. PAUL-MINNEAPOLIS,
April 20 (AP) ).-The motor
coughed, sputtered and then
died out. Attendants rolled
the unloading platform to the
plane.
When the first of the Mime
sofa Twins appeared in the
doorway of the four-engined
charter craft last night, huge
roar went up from about 1000
youngsters, parents and other
interested spectators.
Their American League-lead-
ing Minnesota Twins had re-
turned home. The first major
league game in the Twin Cities
will be played tomorrow and
the fans want to make sure the
ballplayers know everyone is
behind them.
Youngsters bolted from the
observation platform to a near
by roof to get a better view Of
their heroes. Parents hoisted
smaller children to their Shoul-
derS to see the men they'd
heard so much about.
I'D better get up front
quick" one man said. If my
boy doesn't get to see Harmon
Killebrew. he won't let me
alone for a week"
Kissed by Twins
The players trooped down
the platform and each was
greeted by kiss from a set of
pretty twins waiting on the
runway. Next came the re-
porters and photographers and
then the bubbling kids.
The team then trooped
through the airport lobby so
the rest Of the fans could get
in a pat on the back and a
handshake. AS each player
threaded his way through the
jammed lobby, the crowd re-
sponded with cheers and hand
claps.
When the Twins emerged, it
was clear on their faces that
they really appreciated the re-
ception.
Are there a lot of pretty
girls in there, Bill?" a fan
asked Billy Console.
There sure are" answered
the Twins utility infielder.
I've been through five times
already"
I've already gone through
three times" chimed in Don
Lee, a big righthanded pitcher
who currently is on the injury
list.
Celebration Today
Over in one corner of the
runway, Paul Giel and Fred
Bruckbauer stood talking.
1T sure is good to get back
to Minnesota" said Giel, from
Winona, a former All-America
halfback and pitcher at the
University Of Minnesota. Il
consider this a great break.
1t restored my confidence"
Il expect to see some action
real soon. but right now they
have me pitching in relief,
said Bruckbauer who. like Giel.
was a star pitcher for the
Gophers. He halls from Sleepy
Eye.
After everyone had gone
through the reception line at
least once, the players were
hurried to a waiting bus to go
to their hotel. Plenty OF rest
was needed to get the team
ready for the Welcome Twins"
celebration planned by the
Twin Cities today.
Just before the bus left, Ca

Ping Bodie, "A, ColorfuI Baseball Character, Dies

SAN FRANCISCO R = Ping Bodie, "A, one of major league baseball's coIorful characters four decades ago died Sunday.
 Bodie was an American League |outfielder for nine seasons, with the Chicago White Sox 1911-14, the Philadelphia Athletics in 1917, and the New York Yankees 1918- 21. He was roommate of Babe Ruth's while playing for the Yam kees.
 Bodie, a slugger of the dead ball era was christened Francis Pezzalo. He derived his baseball name from the ''ping" of his bat when it met the ball and a ghost mining town he once lived in, Bodie, Calif.
