Senators Get
Big Welcome
Here Tonight
BY BILL FUCHS
Star Staff Writer

The Senators return home
at 7:15 tonight to the acclaim
of the people.
They will be cheered and
Serenaded in celebrations al
the National Airport and at the
Statler Hotel on the eve OF
their great undertaking-the
launching of a new baseball
era in Washington.
That era will begin at 1:25
pm. tomorrow at Griffith Sta
dium, with President Kennedy
a righthander better known for
his football passing, throwing
out the first ball. Then it will
be up to the athletes-the Sen
ators and White Sox-to open
the 61st season in the American
League and the first season
for a Washington club that
was put together practically
overnight.
Early Wynn, the durable
righthander, who at Al is only
two years younger than the
President. will pitch for the
White Sox, while Dick Dono-
van. also a righthander, will
throw for the Senators.
Follows Percentages
Rookie Manager Mickey Ver-
non, anxious for success at the
start, will play the percentages
and wherever possible will have
a lefthand Swinger taking aim
at Wynn's cunning offerings.
Shortstop Coot Veal, one of
Washingtons top hitters in the
exhibition season, will lead off
and will be followed by Billy
Klaus, third base; Marty Ke-
ough, rightfield; Dale Long, if
able. at first base; Gene Wood
ling, leftfield; Willie Tasby,
rightfield; Danny O'Connell,
second base; Pete Daley, catch
er, and Donovan. Klaus, Ke-
ough. Long ana Woodling are
lefthanded hitters.
The White Sox will be field
ing virtually the same team
that carried them to third
place. 10 games behind the
pennant-winning Yankees, last
year. The exception is at third
base. where j. C. Martin, a
.285 hitter with San Diego last
season, holds forth in place of
Gene Freese, traded to Gin
cinnati.
Luis Aparicio, the slick
fielding. base-stealing short
stop, will lead off and will be
followed by Nellie Fox, second
base; Minnie Minoso, leftfield; :;
Roy Sievers. first base: Mar
tin, third base; AL Smith, right
field; Jim Lands, centerfield;
Sherm Lollar, catcher, and
Wynn.
Experts Shrugged Off
While the White Sox are
given a chance of winning
their second pennant in three
years, the experts predict a
rough season for the new Sen
ators.
But the people of Washing
ton apparently don't give a fig
for the experts. They know
they have a new baseball deal
with the exodus of the Griffiths
to Minnesota and the promise
by the new owners to spend
money and build a representa-
tive baseball team.
A large crowd will gather at
the Military Air Transport Ser
vice terminal to cheer the team
fresh from the final exhibition
against the Red Sox at Win
ston-Salem, N. C. The arrival
has been moved up from the
1888 time announced earlier.
Commissioner Walter N. Tob-
riner will present the keys to
the city to Pete Quesada, club
president; Ed Doherty, general
manager, and Vernon. Players
and officials will be introduced
to the crowd.
The team will be escorted to
the hotel in Is convertibles,
and another reception will be
staged at the Sixteenth street
entrance.

TANIA.
I find it q little difficult
to understand your situa-
ton. If your father needs
your financial aid now to
help support his family, how
could he possibly pay for
even part of your college ex-
penses? And, even If you
start right now to save all
the money you earn, l do not
see how you can save enough
to carry you through your
freshman year of college
even if it is possible to live
at home while you are going
to school.
My advice is to talk to
your principal or dean OF
girls and ask If 1t is possible
for you to get a scholarship.
1t certainly would be worth
trying.
With a scholarship and a
part-time job perhaps you
can manage to make your

He never really takes her
anywhere-they just go

things to her but she is so
stubborn she won't listen

Your girl friend is making
a fool of herself-the boy is
simply taking advantage OF
her stupidity.
If she continues these late
parking dates, she will lose
whatever reputation she has
left. When the boys she dates
earlier in the evening dis
cover she is late-dating after
they take her home, they
will be angry and stop dat
ing her.
Actually, this isn't a case
of saving Jeanie from the boy
