WIN, LOSE OR DRAW
Mantle Versus Moys
Now It's Revived

YOU CAN ALWAYS START lively de-
bate by comparing Willie Mays and Mickey
Mantle. For starter, let's assume they are
the two best natural ball players in the
world. They both were born In 1881, with
Mantle slightly the younger. They both
run like thieves, throw well and hit for
distance.
Mays had wonderful day just recently,
hitting four home runs in one game It
was a superb feat, but Mantle is having a
wonderful spring, too. He is hitting grand
slam homers and winning the big games
that are keeping the Yankees at or near
the top.
Mickey (and that's his square handle)
has got to do the job If the Yankees are
going to win. Mantle has got to be the
hitter who carries such relative weaklings
as Cletis Boyer and Bobby Richardson as
regulars.
Mays versus Mantle? In the field you'd
have to say that Willie is flasher. He
makes those bread basket catches, Mantle
doesn't. Mays possibly has a better arm,
although there's some doubt about it.
THEY'VE BEEN IN THE major leagues
about the same time This will be Mantles
18th year and Mays 10th. Willie's average
is better-.317 against .307 for Mantle. The
Yankee hits more home runs-and GER
tainly the longest. The score here was
800 to 27o, but only going into this season.
Both are inclined to be depressed at
times. Mays, who hits only righthanded,
misses Leo Durocher, the manager who
broke him in. Mantle, who switch-hits, is
equally moody. But he is fun-loving guy,
more so than Mays. Any night club skit,
no matter how corny, arnuses him. His
favorite companion is Whitley Ford, the
pitcher, who is inclined to be sour.
Mantle has led the American League
In just about every department except
stolen bases. This, in itself, is an item
because on straightaway Mantle is rated
indeed, clocked by scouts-as the fastest
man in baseball.
BUT YOU CAN'T steal with the guy"
AL Lopez of the White Sox says, because
Mickey'S too valuable He might get hurt
and you'd lose his bat"

Once, 1t Is recalled, Lopez was asked
how high he would go in a trade for
Mantle. Al shook his head obviously

Lopez gazed into the Florida sun that
morning and he was wistful.
But I'd sure like to have Mantle" he
sighed.
THIS IS MANTLE'S FASTEST start,
ever, and part Of the reason, Mickey says,
is due to shorter stroke. He's always gone
all out when he swung, accounting not
only for those tape-measure home runs but
also for his leading the American League
in strikeouts.
If one ever has watched Mantle swing
at golf ball off the tee he will under
stand. Mickey's aim is to hit the ball
farther than anybody in history, and some
times he succeeds. Just lately the Mick
has revised his thinking.
Muscles" he now says, don't have
anything to do with hitting. don't care
If it's baseball or a golf ball. It's strictly
timing.
what I'm not doing so much now is
swinging and missing. I'm getting more a
piece of the ball."
Old buddy Ford, who is lucky he has
Mantle on his side and is not opposing him,
analyses the present-day Mickey this way:
pitchers used to get him out by throw
ing high and upstairs They thought they
had a book on Mantle. Web, this season
the guy has been hitting most of his long
shots off high, fast balls. Jerry Walker OF
the Athletics threw him one and looked sur
prised when it got lost Eli Grba, who used
to work for us, tried the same thing.
Personally" Ford sighed, II wish these
big hitters wouldn't swing so hard. The
more they use their wrists the farther the
ball seems to CO."

Yet there is danger in delay

in the number of civilian en-

The Defense Department said
the Army increase will be for
