Reaction to Shot Gives
Mantle New Problem

NEW YORK, April l3 (AP)
This was one spring when
everything was right with
Mickey Mantle-no strains, no
pains, no ailments at all when
he and the New York Yankees
opened the American League
season. So he took a shot in
the arm to help him stay that
way, and the trouble started.
He has a knot the size of
a baseball on his left arm"
Manager Ralph Houk said,
but I think he'll be able to
play today. It's from a hay
fever shot he took yesterday
morning. Damdest thing you
ever saw"
Mantle, who was 0-for-4 and
struck out twice when Pedro
Ramos pitched a three hitter
that gave the Minnesota Twins
a 90 opening-day victory
Tuesday, had a tough time in
the batting cage during yes
terday's off-day workout.
There's no pain," Mickey
said, "but I felt dizzy and nau-
seated"
If the reaction to the shot
keeps Mantle out of today's
second game with the Twins,
Houk would switch Roger
MariS from rightfield to CEN
ter, move Yogi Berra to right
and use Johnny Blanchard be-
hind the plate. Mantle felt
he'd be able to play, however,
and showed the same eagerness
as the rest of the Yankees at
getting another crack at the
Twins.
I've been taking these shots
once a month for year and
a half" Mantle said, "and this

But Price had his problems too. Ben

Federal strength was still cOncen-
trated at St. Louis and jefferson City,
SO Price marched northward from

hard on grasping clear and
precise meanings and con-
cepts.
. Next I suggested to Jack
that he get a new notebook
just for this endeavor. AS
he came to each problem
situation he was to turn to
the notebook and work out
the solution for just one or
two problems. This note
book Of solved problems be-
came Jacks evidence he was
trying to do a thorough and
conscientious job. Jack spent
the entire week end alter
mating between his study
reading and writing solu-
tions in his notebook.
. On Monday of the next
week he made an appoint
ment with his teacher. He
took along the notebook. He
told his chemistry teacher
what he had done during
the week end. And he asked
for a Qualification of a few
Of the solutions. Jack had
worked out each Of these
troublesome problems as far
as he could. He had then left
a blank space with a short
question written lightly in
pencil. With the help of his
teacher at hand. he was able
to turn quickly 70 each
trouble spot and pin down
his difficulty.
. Without any waste Of
time the instructor was able
to tell Jack exactly where
he needed help.
The story Of Jack, his
problems, his notebook and
its partially solved problems
has a happy ending.
On the basis Of that week
end of work with the crash
program. Jack survived in
the course and stayed in the
officers training program
which he finished on sched-
ule to earn his commission.

STOP KILLING

go-lucky person any daugh-
ter could possibly be blessed
with. Therefore, I want to
keep her with us as long as

She really has no COM
plants but she weighs too
much. Ever since I can re-
member. she has been over
200, although not tall. I took
her to a doctor who spe-
cializes in weight reduction
who advised that she go on
a strict diet because "over-
weight is dangerous" he
said. But my mother insisted
that we ask our old family
doctor who said, stop
meddling with NOM" Whose
side are you on, DR.. Stein
crohn? - Mrs. F.
YOU CAN'T DIVORCE
good, old common sense
from the practice of medi-
cine. No matter how much
science you learn, you must
intermix it (if you are a
doctor) with the art of
medicine. And, in your
mothers case, I think that
common sense dictates stop
meddling with NOM"
What more proof do you
need? Although we know
that overweight is usually
shortening, your mother
has proved an exception.
She has reached 80, feels
fine and is happy. AS your
family doctor says, why

I believe that doctors
should go slow in changing
the bad habits" of elderly
patients. Wearing long
underwear isn't exactly
what I'd call a bad habit,
yet I recall a man of about
IS who came down with a
severe cold followed by
pneumonia.
During convalescence he
said to me: Doctor, do you
know why I almost died?
Because I let a young up
start Of a doctor talk me
into giving up my long
underwear and go in for
shorts. Imagine, I'd worn
it all my life and never had
a cold! What difference did
it make what I wore as long
as I was comfortable in it?"
In the same way, I sug-
gest that when a man in his
